Chapter 820: The Power of the Masses (Part I)


There has been no major war for too long, and the intoxicated imperial lords will naturally not have too many family warriors.

Therefore, most of the troops under Prince Bruce, who claimed to have an army of one hundred thousand, were farmers recruited temporarily.

They have no shortage of weapons, but similarly, farmers also have their own beliefs.

I don’t know how Keira’s people got into it, but before the Duke of the Sea even attacked, they themselves started to get into chaos.

There is no need to look at what happened next.

With the internal strife, how could they stop the elite cavalry carefully selected by Duke Stuart.

I heard that if it weren't for the protection of that first knight, those nobles might have to choose a new prince.

Sighing that Keira has already learned to use the power of the crowd, if she continues to develop, Lorne is worried that he will face an opponent who is good at using crowd tactics in the future.

With faith as a weapon and armed to the teeth with the gold coins of the Stuart family, those desperate farmers might really be able to compete with his transformers.

"Didn't you say that your father wouldn't collude with Keira?

Look, now, your Stuart family is helping to send troops.

What will happen next?

Does he want to be the emperor himself?

So, you have become a princess, but you didn’t expect that I even slept with a princess."

While Athena was joking, Lorne didn't care about the eldest lady's mood at all.

But Athena also couldn't understand that her father would actually join forces with the church to cause a war.

"The Stuart family lacks everything.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't make such a decision.

If they weren't threatened, I think Keira might have offered something they couldn't refuse."

The woman's answer was really nonsense and did not help her at all.

However, now that the battle has begun in the imperial capital, although it is not the ideal equal match, it can also speed up the subsequent development.

Without having to collect them specifically, Lorne could guess what would happen next.

Prince Bruce, who suffered a huge defeat, will definitely come to ask for help from the Grand Duke of the North.

Once the Grand Duke leaves his home, it will be more than just Lorne who is eyeing his life.

"Forget it, let's not talk about your father.

Let's talk about the church.

What do you think the church will do if they want to kill the Grand Duke of the North?"

It was confirmed from Fanny that Keira would find an opportunity to kill the Grand Duke of the North, but Fanny didn't know how.

Since the imperial capital was already in chaos, Keira had not sent any news for a long time.

He asked Athena casually, thinking that the eldest lady would still say some nonsense to make him laugh.

Unexpectedly, Athena said something useful this time.

"You said that the church's treasure house has been destroyed by you, but in fact, most of the things in it are useless or are some treasure phantoms with strange uses.

Really useful treasures are basically in the hands of those paladins.

For example, Fanny, didn't you get one from her?

Basically every paladin will bring one or two pieces of self-defense when going out, so as long as conditions permit, even a forced assassination is not difficult for the church. " Since Athena has been more obedient lately, Lorne has relaxed some of her activities.

Therefore, Athena knew more things.

She also knows a little bit about the major events happening outside recently.

Athena was not surprised at all when she heard Lorne say that Keira wanted to assassinate the Archduke of the North.

But after she said that Keira still had some powerful treasures in her hand, the man was a little worried that he would become the target of Keira's revenge.

"Even the guards of the Grand Duke of the North can't stop the church's assassination.

So if they come to kill me, how should I stop them?"

If Keira really sent an assassin to kill Lorne, Athena would definitely be happy to see it happen, but she didn't think Baron Fast was that important.

With a contemptuous tone, she answered Lorne.

"You are just a little baron.

How could Keira still set her sights on you and really want to assassinate you?

You don't know how long it will take to line up one by one.

Besides, you also know the status of the Grand Duke of the North.

Unless it was a desperate move, there was no chance Keira could succeed.

And even if it succeeds, the strength of the Habs family will not let the assassin escape.

This is a one-time transaction.

Now, do you still think that you are so important that Keira would waste her little power on you?"

It sounds like that's the case, but coming from Athena's mouth always makes Lorne feel a little uncomfortable.

But before he and Athena could discuss the three obediences and four virtues, Celine walked in with Fanny.

The two of them have been getting close recently, and Lorne doesn't know whether it was Fanny who took the initiative to move closer to Celine, or whether Mrs.

Fast was planning for the future and started to gather the women around Lorne.

But that is to say, when they were outside, Fanny rarely visited the study room, which was dedicated to talking about things.

Coming in with Celine like today, Lorne felt that something must have happened with Keira.

Sure enough, it didn't matter that Athena was in the study.

Celine asked Lorne directly: "You told Keira about the land equalization system?"

More than a year has passed since I suddenly heard this sentence.

Lorne had to think carefully about it first.

Unfortunately, he made a lot of forward-looking suggestions to Kayla at that time.

He couldn't remember whether he told Kayla about equalizing the land, which was the most powerful thing to trigger a peasant rebellion.

But it doesn’t matter, Celine reminded the man: “Keira is already ready to promote your suggestion, and she even sent a letter to Fanny asking us in Fastland to do the same.

You actually share the land equally with the farmers for free, what are you thinking?"

For the nobles, it was certainly unreasonable to divide the land equally among the peasants.

But equalizing land is definitely not a stupid system.

For those farmers, having a field of their own is a dream.

Especially for those who are like serfs, what does a life mean for a piece of land?

Coupled with the church's instigation, Lorne could already foresee an uprising.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the publicity is in place, the lords of the empire will die naturally without the need for Keira to take action.

I admire Keira's courage, but as a result, the church that advocates land equalization has completely become the opposite of the aristocracy.

As the great nobles of the empire, how could the Stuart family agree to Keira moving the land passed down by their family?

Without telling Celine what was going on in her head, Lorne asked Athena
