The weather over the royal capital was sunny and sunny, making it a good day for execution. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Every half hour or so, a cannon shot would be heard in the direction of the square, which meant that a big man who had been "prominent" had received the judgment he deserved.

The charges had already been established, and the process was more publicized for the public, especially the Church in collusion with Tifeco to murder the king and usurp the throne. After nearly a week of sorting and preparation, the chain of evidence brought to display was complete and indisputable—of course, Roland would not give them a chance to debate.

On the whole, not many nobles were hanged, except for Tifeco and his men, the Prime Minister and the Judge Officer, and the rest were members of the Church. Now that the royal church has been uprooted, he has not spared any of the people who have participated in the evil plague release incident.

Presumably, when these scum were pushed to the gallows, they would be "warmly welcomed" by the onlookers.

"Don't you really go to the scene?" asked the nightingale, standing by the window.

"Iron Axe and Tassar will take care of it," Roland replied without raising his head. The public trials held in border towns were held to stimulate the will of the masses and increase the centripetal force of the people, but there was no environment for them to be carried out here. People don't rush to their side because the head of the puppet king Tifeko has landed, just as they didn't take refuge in the puppet king immediately after the death of Wimbledon III and Goron.

He does not have a sufficient mass base here.

Security was also a big concern, and the list of gems in his memory was eventually found by Sylvie, who hid it in a secret box in his bedroom closet, but Roland found that the remaining gems were a full twelve fewer than the number on the list, and four of them were hidden in the royal capital, which meant that they all received orders from Tifeco. It doesn't have to be an assassination, but you have to be careful. The place of execution, which was so crowded that it was not suitable for onlookers - and he had no interest in execution.

He had more important things to attend to than that.

For example, the military.

The casualties in the capture of the royal capital finally got a detailed count, and the first army had a total of thirty-three people killed, which was the heaviest loss since the establishment of the army. Although they routed several times their own enemies, the street fighting revealed a number of problems, the most important of which was the lack of firepower to demolish houses - most of these casualties were caused by the frenzied guards rushing out of the houses lining the streets. If you can equip some grenades or blasters and advance while demolishing suspicious houses, the casualties will definitely drop a lot.

The other is the number of soldiers, a 3,000-strong First Army can now sweep through the entire Grey Castle, but it is quite difficult to capture one place after the next one. After capturing the royal capital, at least 500 people must be left to maintain order, plus the next Falling Dragon Ridge and the extreme south border, the size of the army is obviously not enough to deal with the security war...... Further military expansion is imperative.

Roland wrote down the plan for the bereavement and expansion of the army, handed it to the guards outside the study, and ordered him to return to Neverwinter with the instructions, and the town hall would do the rest.

Then the prince turned his attention to the group of minor nobles.

They did not have the strength to call the tide politically, but everyone could be considered a contemporary intellectual, and they were eager for promotions - a large number of former ministers in the royal capital had been swept away, either deported or sent to serve their sentences in the Wudong mining area, and a large number of positions were now vacated. If you want the royal capital to still function, letting them work for you is the best way to save manpower.

Barov had been in the royal capital for many years, and there must have been many acquaintances among him, and it was much more effective for him to organize a temporary governing body than to force it himself.

Of course, entrusting them with important tasks that are determined to take refuge in them can also increase their motivation, and Joko is the role model Roland picks.

These days, he finally thinks about where this "old friend" goes.

......

As soon as he stepped into the study, Joko exclaimed, "Oh my God, you really killed those gods, I didn't expect that the evil plague was actually released by these guys, and I couldn't believe it when the high priest of Feili confessed his sins, it was simply a discredit to the gods! Now the crowd in the square is singing your name, saying that you saved them six months ago." ”

Roland smiled, this is all the news released by the rats arranged by Tasa in advance, and it echoes the refugee rescue six months ago, which must have had a good publicity effect. As for singing the praises of his own name in unison, nine times out of ten it is Joko's sycophancy.

He didn't break it either, but pushed a beautiful parchment letter in front of the other party.

"Look at this. ”

Joko unfolded the letter and looked at it twice, his eyes widened, "You...... You're going to send me as an ambassador for the Grey Keep?"

"That's right, the resident kind," Roland nodded, "the letter of appointment, the scepter, and the seal are all available, and the station is in the royal capital of Dawn, Glowlight City, what do you think?"

This is an answer that he only got after thinking about it - as a well-known demon hand in the royal capital, it sounds like it is extremely popular, but in fact it is not a good review, just like the four princes in the past.

No one wants to wear green on their heads, and neither do the nobles, whose wives fool around with other people, if they are not caught on the spot, and who makes them themselves amuse, and wander among brothels and taverns—but all in secret.

If Yoko is placed in a prominent position, or if the Demon Hand is openly allowed to enter the town hall, the impact is simply unpredictable...... All the nobles and wealthy merchants must have to worry about whether their wives will openly throw apricot branches at Joko, and those women who are themselves having affairs with Joko may take the opportunity to climb up with him, which is not what Roland wants.

Therefore, it is the most suitable choice to go abroad, the ambassador of the kingdom is different from the mobile emissary group, its status is equal to that of the earl, and the king of the other party will also treat him with courtesy. The name is loud, the publicity effect is first-class, and he does not need to reward his fiefdom and will not let others be frightened.

Let him go to the scourge of Chenxi, I heard that the aristocratic women over there have a special style, and the women are particularly outstanding, maybe he can break into a new world.

Joko apparently took a fancy to this, and without hesitation, he knelt down and replied with an excited expression, "I...... No, the minister will!" As if he was afraid that Roland would regret it.

"Then it's decided," Roland laughed, "I'll arrange for the hostesses to train you well before I go." ”

In addition to settling the covenant, he did need to keep his men behind in Dawn in order to understand the situation of his neighbors, and at the same time urge them to fulfill their covenants and fight together against the church. (To be continued.) )
