Chapter 315 Simba
When William and others were still some distance away from the palace, they heard the shouts of killing and gunshots coming from there.
When William brought his men to arrive, the shouts of killing had gradually fallen. The gate of the palace was opened from inside, and a team of soldiers came out one after another. Oliver behind William instructed the soldiers of the garrison to prepare for attack, but William raised his hand and asked them to put the gun down.
Many of the soldiers who came out of the palace were still stained with blood, but at this time they seemed invincible. After they saw William's appearance, they even threw the weapons in their hands on the ground. When the first person knelt on one knee and cheered William's name, all the soldiers immediately knelt down, made way for the palace gate, and cheered William.
No matter how carefully selected Norton I and the nobles of Kalmar City chose, they could only select some obedient senior officers or some middle-level generals, but they still could not change the fact that soldiers were all composed of the lower-level population.
These people were not necessarily William's most loyal supporters, but during William's imprisonment, the rulers of the Kingdom of Navia took counter-attack, gradually ruining the situation that William had finally improved in recent years. Moreover, in order to win the support of the military, the nobles of the Kingdom of Navia cleverly relaxed some of the requirements for military discipline compared to William's reign. In order to show goodwill, they reduced the training of lower-class soldiers like Basco, so that they could even leave the barracks and return home or rest outside frequently.
But this led to these soldiers from the bottom of the class who could clearly understand and see how their family and living environment gradually went from being rich during William's reign to gradually becoming dilapidated.
If these soldiers still lived a semi-closed life in the military camps, remained in a certain degree of isolation from society, and reduced external influences, they would not be affected and impacted so much. And with the deterrence of the navy and the world government hanging high above their heads, they would probably still listen to the orders of their superiors.
Unfortunately, there is no if in reality. And because the strategy adopted by the nobles of the Navia Kingdom was to gather the upper class, and the officers who successfully gathered the troops were gone without William's shock, they would dare to do things that they would never dare to do in the past, such as greed for military pay.
While the soldiers at the bottom were receiving their wages that were starting to shrink, they looked at the increasingly difficult and embarrassed family every time they went home, and listened to the rumors that women from the surrounding family had to become wanderings. Even if they were not originally a supporter of William, they would be forced to become supporters of William in this environment.
When the square where the execution platform was located rioted, and news of collective rebellion of the garrison camp also came back to the palace one after another, the soldiers here had already begun to be filled with people. When the news that William was released from prison and advanced to the palace came, the situation was no longer controlled by the generals stationed here.
The officers who stood on the standpoint of the nobles and Norton I urged and commanded the soldiers to guard the palace, but I don’t know who fired the first shot. This shot was like a fuse. The soldiers with resentment seemed to have agreed and attacked each other. They killed all the officers who were attracted by the nobles and the airborne generals for this period, turned against each other, and directly opened the palace gate to welcome William.
William did not place any man in the palace. The soldiers spontaneously turned against each other without him. It was similar to the riots in the execution platform square, which were all accidents.
Ajin looked at the soldiers kneeling on the ground in front of him. Some extremely young soldiers even burst into tears while cheering because of the warm scene in front of him. His eyes fell to the direction of the palace again and whispered: "What a group of pigs. After leaving the navy, these wastes are really nothing."
"Isn't this better?" William smiled.
Ajin thought for a while, grinned and nodded.
...
In the palace, when the shouts of killing came from the palace gate, the king of the Navia Kingdom, Norton I and his family, were sitting in the hall sadly. The queen kept wiping her tears, and Norton I also had red eyes.
Norton I was really cheered up after William was arrested and imprisoned. However, due to a series of factors such as insufficient ability and insufficient time, he finally fell into such a desperate situation today.
He looked at his son. Norton II, who was supposed to be the crown prince of this country, was already crying and swollen with his eyes, his face full of resentment and reluctance.
Norton I choked and said to his son: "Your mother and I are here to attract the attention of Morgan William, the rioter, you take the opportunity to leave here."
He turned his head again and looked at a servant standing silently next to him: "You take advantage of the chaos in the palace now and take the prince away quietly. Even if you run out, don't make any noise. Morgan William has too much power in the East China Sea."
After King Norton I finished speaking, he stood up and saluted the servant. He would never be able to do such a move before being overshadowed by William and suffered some "tribulation".
He looked sad and said sincerely: "Norton II's life will be entrusted to you, please be sure to take good care of him."
After he said that, he called Norton II again and asked Norton II to kneel down and call his servant "Godfather".
The middle-aged servant was startled and quickly avoided it, but Norton I repeatedly begged that a king who was a franchise in the world government, with such sincerity, was so touched by the servant who had been inculcated loyal to the monarch since childhood and finally agreed.
In this situation, he was too late to hold any ceremony. Although Norton II was reluctant, he still knelt down at his father's order and recognized the honest and honest middle-aged servant in front of him as his "godfather".
Norton I then immediately asked the servant to take his son away, but Norton II was unwilling to leave. The queen also cried and hugged Norton II. The three in the palace were completely a scene of a doomsday.
Norton I was a little angry and pulled away the mother and son, and said seriously to Norton II: "Child, obediently, you must live, don't let your mother and me sacrifice in vain. Fortunately, in the future, we will take back the throne of the Navia Kingdom from Morgan William, a traitor. Before that, you must take good care of yourself and ensure your own safety! You are the legitimate next king of the Navia Kingdom. Even if you suffer setbacks now, you must be strong! Now leave with your godfather!"
After saying that, Norton I shook his eyes at the middle-aged servant. The servant pulled him hard and said nothing, leaving. Norton II, who was crying silently.
