Chapter 1399 Lucky Day (six thousand, ask for a monthly ticket)
"His Majesty the Pope's Letter to the People of the Occupied Areas, what is this?" the person who picked up the leaflet muttered in a low voice.
Robin's younger brother scratched his head and asked, "What's the use of this thing?"
Robin folded the flyer, hid it carefully, and whispered: "Don't worry, we'll talk about it when we get back."
Then he raised his head and squinted his eyes at the human vassals on the street, with a sneer on his face.
Their faces were ashen and their expressions were dull, as if they were mourning for their heirs. They nervously and timidly glanced at the passers-by on both sides of the street, as if they had been surrounded by a pack of man-eating wolves and would be bitten to pieces at any time.
"Be afraid, you know your end is coming." Robin thought happily in his heart. Seeing his enemy be so scared, he felt extremely happy.
Similarly, the citizens of Dikish standing behind the doors and windows looked at the gang of traitors and sneered. Although their faces may have no expressions, the thoughts in their hearts could be seen even by the Semites and traitors on the street.
.
The leader of the puppet army on the street suddenly shouted angrily at the crowd crowded at the door of the tavern: "Look at whatever you are looking at~!"
He pointed his finger at the onlookers around him and yelled: "I'll kill you again. This is still my world. The one who wants to die, come out, ah, come out~!"
The crowd in front of the tavern suddenly all retreated, and the doors and windows on both sides of the street were closed almost simultaneously. The Dikish people who were watching them all shrank back as if they were impressed by their strength.
But whether it was the Dikish people or those who had taken refuge with the Semites, they betrayed their compatriots and were raped. Everyone knew it in their hearts. The Dikish people were no longer afraid of them. Everyone just waited for the Holy See army to arrive and liquidate them, and this
One day is not far away.
Everyone knows that these people are scared.
Today Dikirch became calmer than usual, the sun was still high in the sky, and the streets were deserted, like an empty city.
Vendors, shopkeepers, craftsmen, etc., everyone stayed at home. Even the vassal soldiers who wandered the streets arrogantly and captured enemy agents all day long closed their doors and hid.
Everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm.
Robin and his few heroes who licked their swords to earn a living returned to a simple house in the slums. The people here were poor and unruly Dikish people. The houses were low and the roads were winding and narrow, like spider webs.
Convenient to hide and easy to escape.
No officers and soldiers will enter normally, and even those puppet troops rarely appear here.
Robin lit an oil lamp. Then he carefully closed the curtains, took out the flyers dropped from the air, and read them carefully under the light.
This leaflet was as big as two hands spread out, with black text printed on the front. The content was easy to understand, and even Robin, who had only attended a missionary school for three years and had no elementary school education, could understand it.
The first sentence he opened was, "In the name of the God of Light, we will never forgive any traitor." The tone was tough and murderous.
The content is just like what the leaflet says, it is a papal decree on how to punish adultery in occupied areas.
All humans who serve the Semites are criminals, but the crimes are divided into several levels, and the Holy See will treat them differently, and the levels of conviction adopt a red name and yellow name system.
Anyone with a red name who commits adultery must be killed, while those with a yellow name must be sentenced. The content of this method is very simple, even ordinary farmers can understand it.
The human beings who took the initiative to seek refuge with the Semitic tribe committed extremely heinous crimes. Their leaders and key members were immediately known as red-blooded people. If they were caught, they would be dead.
Others who were forced to join the puppet army and serve the Semites had yellow names. They had different basic scores based on their positions in the puppet army. The higher the position in the puppet army, the lower the basic score.
If these people are guilty of murder, rape or denunciation of compatriots, they will be directly beheaded with a red name.
If someone commits robbery, he will be deducted one point for each robbery. If he beats a civilian, he will be deducted one point for each time he is reported. He will be deducted a negative point and beheaded.
If you are not guilty of any of these crimes and the final score exceeds five points, congratulations, you will be acquitted.
Those with less than five points will be sentenced to two years of hard labor for each lower point. Those with zero points will be sentenced to ten years of hard labor. Based on the current hard labor conditions, if they serve ten years, they will basically not die or become disabled.
At the same time, you can get extra points by reporting and exposing the crimes of other vassal troops. Taking the initiative to catch the traitor with a red name and cooperating with the actions of the Holy See Army will be regarded as meritorious service and the punishment can be reduced.
If the common people catch vassals with different points and escort them to the Holy See, they can get different bonuses...
This points system is simple and easy to understand, the grades are very clear, and the points deduction standards are very clear. You only need to apply it a few times to calculate the result of defecting to the Semitic people.
Robin carefully studied the flyer several times. After understanding it thoroughly, he slammed the table and shouted, "This should have been done a long time ago."
The subordinate was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Boss, what should I do?"
"A points system," Robin said as if he had found a treasure. He walked back and forth in the room excitedly, waving his hands and said: "Our village should also implement a points system. Bonus points for completing tasks, red names for betraying brothers, and bonuses based on points at the end of the year.
Money, if we do this earlier, no one will complain about unfairness."
The subordinates scratched their heads and were confused. They were all illiterate shepherds and had no idea what the points system meant. Anyway, whatever the boss said was what they said. At this time, they only needed to give a thumbs up and said with a sincere expression:
"Big brother is wise."
"What does this leaflet say? What should we do to our enemies?"
"Them?" Robin smiled contemptuously and said happily: "I'm afraid they are all counting their fingers now to calculate how many points they have left."
The good thing about this points system is that it clearly tells ordinary soldiers who are forcibly recruited and forced to serve in the vassal army. If they have not committed any crime against their compatriots, they do not have to worry about the Holy See punishing them.
The sanctioning officer of the tribunal came to kill him.
The Black-faced God of the Inquisition has never been merciless when it comes to punishing humans who have turned to darkness. Very few of those caught by them in the prison of the Inquisition can come out alive.
Those who actively seek refuge and commit evil will be severely punished, especially nobles. The higher the title, the heavier the punishment.
"Canel and his lackeys are doomed." Robin gritted his teeth and said with a ferocious expression: "What they did is enough to deduct two hundred negative points. They will definitely be shaking in bed with fear.
.”
The eyes of several strong men shone with excitement, and they laughed and said: "You deserve it, this guy should have died a long time ago."
Robin paced back and forth in the room, not knowing what was going on in his mind. The expression on his face kept changing, sometimes gnashing his teeth, sometimes sneering, sometimes complacently.
A few minutes later, he suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it on the table, causing the dishes to come to the door to clang. He said loudly: "Wealth is gained through danger. This is our opportunity. I can't let Carnell and the others die."
It’s so comfortable~!”
"Brother, what do you say, we will listen to you."
Robin frowned and said, "We have to plan carefully. First, go say hello to Carnell and the others."
Early the next morning, the citizens of Dikirch were surprised to find that someone had painted a long list of big names with red paint on the east wall.
They were all traitors who had taken refuge with the Semites, and the Dikishi reminded them in this way that they had become famous.
After receiving the news, the puppet troops headed by Kanel quickly rushed to the city gate. Looking at the blood-red writing on the wall, their faces were frightened and they shouted wildly: "Who did it, who did it?
Stand up for me."
But the surrounding doors and windows were closed, and not a single Dikirch citizen showed up.
Angrily, Carnell tried to wipe off the paint on the wall, but no matter whether they washed or scraped with a shovel, this line of bright red characters was difficult to remove.
A large group of Semitic soldiers also ran over with weapons raised. The leading Semitic officer looked at the red letters on the wall and was so angry that he trembled and shouted: "Search the whole city for me and I must find these people."
.”
The Semitic soldiers and puppet soldiers shouted loudly, then kicked open the residents' doors, rushed in with a roar, grabbed the citizens by their collars, dragged them out and threw them on the street.
An officer looked at the poor citizens coldly, and then said word for word: "You are dead~!"
xxxxxxxx
It was sunny on March 1, 836 in the Julian calendar.
The lucky god is in the east.
Taboos: Entering the house, traveling, moving disciples, offering sacrifices, getting married, and breaking ground.
Yi: Kill~!
Early in the morning, the square in Dikirch was already filled with people.
The surroundings were filled with heavily armed and murderous soldiers, holding sharp knives in their hands. They kept patrolling back and forth around the square, looking fiercely at everyone in front of them.
Whenever their eyes passed by, the people all timidly lowered their heads and avoided their sight.
As the sun rose higher and higher, the atmosphere in the square became more and more depressing.
Suddenly there was a commotion in the distance. Someone shouted in a low voice: "Coming, coming..."
Immediately afterwards, a crisp and rhythmic drum sound sounded.
Amidst the sound of drums, several carriages covered with black veils slowly came from a distance.
A group of prisoners, all shackled on their hands and feet, slowly got off the carriage, and then, under the threat of the guards' spears, they walked step by step towards the high platform in the middle of the square.
On that high platform, there were more than a dozen gallows hanging high. The thick and cheap ropes swayed slightly in the wind. When people looked at them, they couldn't help but feel an inexplicable fear in their hearts.
The prisoners lowered their heads and stood in front of the gallows one by one.
Out of fear of death, many people were trembling. Some were even paralyzed and unable to walk. They were held hostage by strong guards and sent to the gallows.
At this time, the drumming suddenly stopped.
Although the entire square was full of people, it was completely silent. Only the occasional low-pitched cough could be heard, but the cough was extremely slight and disappeared immediately.
A herald walked up to the execution platform.
He wore a hood with iron-gray curly hair on his head, his face was covered with white powder, and a fake black pimple was added to his cheek.
This outfit was a popular dress in the Ruman Empire two years ago. Unfortunately, the empire is now under the impact of Princess Catherine’s donkey brand, horse shit... Bah Bah, Louis Vuitton, Hermès and other popular brands.
It has been updated a long time ago and is in line with the early twentieth century of Lorraine's time.
What is popular now are shiny leather shoes, neat clothes and pants, fur windbreakers, and beautiful top hats.
If someone dresses like the herald again and walks on the street, even beggars will secretly curse "213" behind their backs.
But having said that, through this costume, you can know that Dikixi is so backward and closed-minded, a full two years behind the times.
The herald came and stood in front of the stage, then opened a parchment roll in his hand and read loudly: "Supreme, supreme, wise, King Dikish sends this message to all the people.
All citizens living in our country must abide by the laws and regulations. They are not allowed to accept enemy propaganda and instigation. They are also not allowed to spread rumors to cause trouble and undermine the stability of the country.
After investigation, five people, including Hassen, Kalal, Doris, etc., picked up enemy leaflets on the street for no reason and had evil intentions.
Punished by hanging.
After investigation, it was found that Sallot, Mars... and other seven people pretended to be poor and repeatedly evaded taxes. In total, they underpaid seven sheep and six chickens. Their hearts are worth killing and they should be hanged.
After investigation, it was found that although Baron Dost was a nobleman, he had treasonous intentions and repeatedly liaised with the Maple Army. He betrayed state secrets and put the lives of 300,000 loyal and brave soldiers of our army in danger.
People who have committed such heinous crimes cannot be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts to satisfy the indignation of the people. However, His Majesty is merciful and has decreed that the punishment should be reduced to one level.
Punished by hanging~!"
The herald had just finished reading when he heard a fat noble among the prisoners shout loudly: "I'm wronged. I'm wronged. My lord, I didn't treason, I didn't have an affair with the Maple Army. I didn't..."
That fat man was heartbroken and miserable.
The audience below immediately let out a burst of contempt.
This guy is too cowardly, and he lost money to a nobleman.
Just now those people just picked up a leaflet, handed over a few sheep, and rebelled against the death penalty. Did you see any of them say a word?
This guy, on the other hand, has obviously done bad things and liaised with the enemy. Such a person can be regarded as a hero. At this time, he should show his heroic spirit and sing a few lines of famous excerpts to make everyone happy.
.
However, he is here crowing about chickens and ducks, which is so embarrassing.
At this time, the fat man still kept shouting: "I didn't, I didn't. I really didn't commit treason. Your Majesty, you are wronged, I was wronged..."
He shouted and cried at the same time. In the end, his face and clothes were all covered with tears and snot. He looked so heartbroken that he looked like a baby with breasts.
Unfortunately, the commander was not moved at all. He looked at him indifferently and then raised his hand gently.
The rapid drum beat sounded again.
Under everyone's awed gaze, a big man wearing a black triangular hood with only a pair of eyes exposed walked up.
He was shirtless, exposing the messy and thick hair on his chest, and the fat on his body was trembling with his steps.
This is the executioner of Dikirch.
A ferocious man who made all the people look at him like a tiger or a scorpion and shun him. It is said that no less than three thousand people have been killed by his hands. The evil aura on his body alone has made the people run away in fear.
The executioner came behind the condemned prisoners and put the rope around their necks. When it was the turn of the fat nobleman, there was a little trouble.
Because the guy was so frightened that he peed his pants. Therefore, the executioner had to be careful to prevent the urine from getting on his body. In his line of work, it is difficult to get a wife, so he had to wash his clothes and everything by himself. And before he
I just washed it two days ago and I don’t want to wash it again.
When he had finished moving from the left to the right, the drumming stopped.
The executioner checked it carefully again, then came to the left side of the execution platform again and stood in front of a handbrake that was half a person's height.
The commander raised his head and looked at the sky, then raised his right hand again.
The drum beat immediately.
The sound of the drum was extremely rapid, like raindrops, and it was impossible to tell which drum beat it was.
Everyone in the square held their breath and stared at the execution platform with wide eyes.
They all knew that as soon as the drum beat fell, the executioner would pull the handbrake and the traps under the prisoners' feet would open.
Under the combined action of gravity and ropes, they will be suspended in the air, jumping around like shrimps until they die.
Every time at this time, enthusiastic cheers will erupt in the square. The sound is so cheerful that it even makes people feel incredible: How can humans be so happy about the death of their own kind?
The sound of the drum is getting faster and faster. Everyone knows that it will reach its peak in just one second and then stop.
At this moment, a dull thunder suddenly came from the distance.
Boom~!
Everyone's nerves were tense, and when they suddenly heard this voice, they all couldn't help but froze.
Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of thunder.
Boom~!
Then the thunder continued like raindrops.
Boom, boom, boom. Boom...
Everyone couldn't help but look at the sky in astonishment.
Why is this thunder so strange? It is obviously sunny. Moreover, the weather has just turned warm and it has not yet reached the solar term. Why is there thunder?
Could it be said that Dost really has a grievance? God can't bear to see it, so he specially struck a thunder warning?
But that damn fat man makes people feel wretched, and he doesn’t look like a character who can be favored by God...
Before they could react, they immediately felt the ground beneath their feet begin to tremble and shake, and eventually, the wooden gallows made bursts of heart-wrenching sounds.
People looked at each other in confusion: What happened? Is the end of the world coming?
Immediately, there was a dull and low-pitched thunder in the distance. The thunder was extremely weird. It was like a wheel rolling across the ground and was continuous. And the sound became louder and louder.
Someone suddenly woke up and shouted loudly: "The cavalry is the cavalry. They are the cavalry of the brigade. They are rushing towards us."
As soon as he finished speaking, a rapid siren sounded in the city.
Dangdangdangdang...
The soldiers suddenly panicked, holding weapons and running towards the city.
But in the next second, they all fled back like rabbits hit by an arrow.
Immediately afterwards, a loud bugle sound was heard.
A flying eagle and lightning flag appeared at the other end of the street.
Someone shouted loudly: "Run away, run away. Lorraine is here. The Maple Army is coming. Everyone, run away..."
Only then did the common people react. Then they shouted, and then they ran away with their heads in their hands.
At this time, a group of cavalrymen wearing Maple Army uniforms had appeared on the street. They galloped on their horses and chopped down the resisting Kiddish soldiers to the ground with their swords.
An officer shouted loudly: "Quick, quick, brothers, rush into the palace and capture King Dikish alive..."
On the gallows, Dost looked at the cavalry. He was startled for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Hahaha, well done, well done. Hahaha..."
Then, he burst into tears again.
He cried sometimes and laughed sometimes, as if he was crazy.
But those cavalrymen galloped past the gallows, and no one stopped at all. Only a few young soldiers looked at it curiously, and then rushed over casually.
Due to the suddenness of the incident, the proclaimer and the executioner had no time to escape. They stood on the execution platform and stared blankly at the cavalry passing by like a torrent. After a long time, they finally arrived at Dost's
He woke up from the crying.
The herald glanced at the executioner, then his expression changed, he walked up to Dost with a flattering smile, and then carefully removed the rope from around his neck.
If you didn't know better, looking at his careful appearance, you would think that he was serving his godfather.
The herald smiled and whispered: "My lord, my lord, Lord Dost. Wake up."
Seeing that Dost gradually came back to his senses, he continued: "Congratulations, sir. Congratulations, sir. You are saved.
When I saw you standing here just now, my heart was so sad that it almost broke. If you, a pillar of the country like you, were to be executed by the king... bah bah bah, by the false king, this would be so unfair.
At that moment, I wanted to die with you.
Fortunately, my lord, you are a lucky person. Lord Luo has come to save you personally.
I will untie you from the rope and send you home. How about it?"
As he spoke, he took the key, helped Dost open the shackles, and then helped him slowly walk down the gallows.
The executioner watched their backs disappear on the steps, took off his hood, and then spat heavily on the ground with disdain.
No wonder the other party can become a herald, but I can only be a despicable executioner for the rest of my life. This is the difference~!
He turned around and looked at the other people beside the gallows. Seeing that they were all looking at him eagerly, he couldn't help but laugh to himself, then waved his hand and said: "Today is also your lucky day, so go home."
Bar."
With that said, he picked up the key dropped by the herald from the ground, threw it to everyone, and then walked off the gallows in a swagger.
Those dead people escaped with their lives, which is already a thank you to God. Although I am an executioner, I still have self-respect. There is no way I can personally help those dead people untie their traps, unshackles, etc.
As the Lorraine army stormed into Dikish with lightning speed, large numbers of human officials and nobles who had defected to the Semites began to flee.
At this time, Robin and the others also ushered in their golden hunting period.
