Chapter 735 end
In the reserve headquarters, Nikas knelt in front of Simon on one knee and said anxiously, “Your Majesty, we have been tricked into participating in the rebellion. I hope you will forgive us for our crimes.”
Simon leaned sideways on the wooden chair, crossed his legs, held his chin with his right hand slightly clenched, and said slightly gloomyly: “Get up, I forgive your crimes!”
real? ! Nikas was overjoyed, but also a little suspicious, so he let them go so simply? Wouldn’t it be to settle accounts after the autumn?
Seeming to see Nikas’ suspicion, Simon snorted coldly: “A rebellion that has not been launched is not a real rebellion. Besides, haven’t you already made up for it?”
After getting an accurate answer, Nikas let go of his hanging heart: “Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Majesty!”
Simon still had the slightly gloomy expression on his face: “Go and dismiss that rebel army, what Silvermoon Kingdom needs now is young labor, not more soldiers.”
Seeing that the king was not in a good mood, Nikas didn’t dare to be too pretentious. After bowing and saluting, he left the reserve headquarters straight away.
“Hmph, disaster!” Seeing Nikas’s back, Simon was in a bad mood. It’s hard to say that such a large-scale rebellion could be brewed this time without his connivance and indulgence.
Today, although the Yinyue Kingdom has abolished the enfeoffment system on the surface, but because the new system has not been established, the country is still operating in the original way.
It is precisely because of this that the various problems faced by the system reform have not officially surfaced.
Once the reform starts, troubles will inevitably follow, so it is best to clear out most of the opponents before things become troublesome.
But Nikas did this, in order to win people’s hearts, he could only let these people go for the time being.
In this way, the opposition still retains a considerable amount of strength, and it has turned from the open to the dark, making reform more difficult.
That’s why Simon called Nikas a scourge behind his back, wouldn’t it be good to die obediently? Why do you have to jump around stubbornly a few more times? Are you here to **** him off?
Mikil, the newly appointed chief of staff of the new legion, walked into the reserve headquarters at this time: “Your Majesty, the empire has sent an envoy, saying that they hope to negotiate a peace.”
Simon closed his eyes and said in a bad tone, “Let him in!”
He was in a bad mood, not just because of Nikas.
The new legion is the king’s army, and Mikil, the majestic Marquis Sissoko, who used to be the head of the largest lord’s family in the kingdom, unexpectedly became the chief of staff of the new legion!
Forgiveness on the battlefield, he, the king, is not easy to change.
The new regiment has no deputy commander. That is to say, apart from the regiment commander Harris, Mikil has the highest official position in the new regiment, followed by the commanders and deputy commanders.
This is simply outrageous **** open the door for outrageous, outrageous home!
This is not over yet, what makes Simon feel the most uncomfortable is that after Siegel and Bulder, Graton actually died in battle because of him…
At the beginning, the seven of them went to school in the capital, but now there are only him, Gay, Deborah and Alyosha who has no opinion, how can it not make people feel sad!
The turmoil in the country, the pressure from the empire, the death of relatives and friends, one bad thing lingered in Simon’s mind, and he would be a ghost if he could be happy.
To be honest, if he didn’t have the burden of being a king, he would have wanted to smash it directly, so as to vent his depression.
The door of the reserve headquarters opened, and Ivy, the commander of the Imperial Army, walked in with someone, and saluted Simon respectfully: “His Majesty the Silver Moon King, His Royal Highness the Regent hopes that the two sides will cease fighting so that peace can come to the world.”
Simon snorted again: “Bring the armistice agreement!”
Ai Wei and the others looked at each other, as if they didn’t expect Simon to be so direct.
Before they came, they were ready to be ridiculed. After all, this war was provoked by the empire, but now it is the empire who wants to take the initiative and…
Ivy handed over a piece of parchment respectfully, and Simon glanced at it roughly.
The main content of the armistice agreement is that the Silver Moon Kingdom ceded the area north of the Yelin River to the Empire, and the Empire recognized the Silver Moon Kingdom’s status as a kingdom, and the two sides ceased fighting.
The area north of the Yelin River was abandoned by him after the Battle of the Yelin River. Now it is not in the hands of the Silver Moon Kingdom at all, and it doesn’t matter if it is ceded to the Empire.
And the empire’s recognition of the kingdom status of the Silvermoon Kingdom is a complete joke. The Silvermoon Kingdom has even broken away from the Holy Alliance of Humanity, so why should it be recognized by the Empire.
But even so, Simon signed his name.
Although they successfully dragged the orc king’s court to intervene in this war of independence, compared to the huge empire, the smaller Silvermoon Kingdom was obviously more unaffordable.
The national power of the Silver Moon Kingdom has already reached the brink of collapse, so of course, the sooner this war can be ended, the better.
Seeing that Simon signed without hesitation, this obviously harsh truce agreement, Ivy was surprised, and asked bravely, “The Silver Moon King won’t think about it again?”
Simon threw the parchment to Ivey, and said with a sneer, “What are you thinking about? You and I both know that this armistice agreement is just a tactic to slow down the war. The seeds of hatred have been planted. From the moment this agreement is signed, it is destined to be We tear it up!”
Ivy’s heart sank, and his assessment of the Silver Moon King instantly raised several danger levels.
Indeed, as Simon said, during this war, many people died in the Silver Moon Kingdom, while more people died in the Empire.
The seeds of hatred have begun to spread, and as long as there is a chance, the empire will completely crush the Silver Moon Kingdom.
The same is true for the Silver Moon Kingdom. As long as they find a good opportunity, they will surely stab the empire in the back when it is at its weakest.
If you want to end this kind of hatred, you must spend hundreds of years to dilute it, or let a certain party perish completely, and cut off the hatred from the root!
After putting away this precious armistice agreement, Ivey turned to another topic: “This time your country has captured many of us, can we use the corpse of your country’s commander, the captives, and the ransom? In exchange for our captured nobles.”
During this war, the empire was captured by the Silvermoon Kingdom by tens of thousands of people, mainly because of the cavalry charge that finally determined the outcome of the battle, which prevented too many imperial soldiers from evacuating the battlefield.
Of course, among the tens of thousands of captives, only nobles were eligible to be redeemed.
As soon as these words came out, Harris, Mikkel and others in the headquarters all looked at Simon expectantly.
Unexpectedly, Simon flatly rejected the proposal: “No! All the prisoners we captured will be executed by the Yelin River!”
“Your Majesty!” Harris, Mikkel and others looked at Simon anxiously.
Ai Wei is also puzzled. The captured nobles can be redeemed after the war. This is a tradition that has existed since ancient times. How can it not work with Simon?
Simon’s emotions seemed a little agitated, and he said in a cadence: “Graton…he is dead, since he is dead, let him die more valuable!
Hit with one punch to avoid a hundred punches! Only by terrifying all the nobles in the empire, they will not dare to peek at the land of the Silver Moon Kingdom easily! ”
In this feudal era, only the nobles can decide the direction of the war, and the opinions of the common people are not important at all.
It was also because of the redemption system that the nobles dared to launch wars unscrupulously. Anyway, the dead were big soldiers, and the nobles didn’t have to die.
And this time, Simon wanted to make all the nobles in the empire fear the Silvermoon Kingdom.
In this way, when the imperial nobles took a peek at this land, they had to weigh in advance whether wealth and land were important, or their own lives.
I believe that compared with full of aristocratic spirit, morality and benevolence, this can reduce the possibility of war.
At least in a short period of time, if the empire wants to call on the nobles again to launch a war against the Silver Moon Kingdom, it will definitely be difficult.
[This is a hero! An extremely dangerous hero! 】
Hearing Simon’s words, Ivy involuntarily thought of this idea, and at the same time felt more and more heavy and troublesome.
If this kind of character is not handled well, it will definitely cause irreparable damage to the empire!
Ivy took a deep breath and said, “Understood, if this is the case, then we will execute all the captured soldiers and cut off the head of your country’s commander, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Put it on the tip of the spear to show the public !”
Simon snorted coldly: “Whatever you want! But when the Silver Moon Kingdom counterattacks, I will definitely cut off your head and stick it on the spear!”
Ivy nodded slightly: “I wait for that day to come.”
After finishing speaking, he took people out of here. Apart from signing the armistice agreement, the two sides broke up completely unhappy during this meeting.
Back at the camp, the first thing Ivy ordered was to cut off Graton’s head.
Graton’s body was well preserved, and even the empire restrained it. If you didn’t look at the bloodless face, it was almost as if you were asleep.
The axeman raised the heavy ax and dropped it heavily. Graton’s head rolled aside immediately, and then it was inserted on the tip of the spear and stood on display by the Yelin River.
More than a hundred captured soldiers were also beheaded one by one by the Yelin River.
However, these soldiers who followed Graton to capture the flag were all elites of the newly formed legion, and each of them was very stubborn. Facing the surrender of the empire, each of them responded by spitting.
On the other hand, the captured soldiers of the empire, not to mention the quality of good and bad, also wailed and begged for mercy.
In front of Mikil, watching soldiers being executed one by one, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child cried bitterly and said: “Please, don’t kill me, I don’t want to die yet, I am the heir of the family, let me go , my family will give you a lot of money!”
Looking at this child who obviously just came here to do military service and experience in the family, Mikil sighed secretly in his heart and said, “Sorry, child, you are not one of us!”
After finishing speaking, he pulled the trigger, and with a bang, another imperial soldier died in Silvermoon Kingdom.
On this day, blood stained the entire Yelin River…
