Lorraine and a group of coalition forces and Semitic leaders walked through the wide gates of Caribbean City and arrived at the city, but they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw the situation inside.
I saw that this broad street was empty, not a single person was there, only a mess was left.
Rotten vegetable leaves, shoulder poles, baskets, carts, overturned food stalls... all kinds of sundries were thrown all over the floor, and there were several red-burning stoves and steaming cauldrons in the middle.
In addition, there are a few shoes with their mouths open randomly, as if they want to accuse this evil world with silent anger.
A fat yellow cat suddenly appeared on the street. It ignored the group of humans blocking the city gate, swaggered across the street, picked up a small fish on the road, jumped onto the wall in a few steps, and turned to look at the strange group of humans.
In one glance, it disappeared on the roof.
The doors of the shops along the street were all open, and some even had their doors falling down. There was no one inside, and the goods were scattered all over the floor. It was obvious that the people here were running away in an extremely hurry.
The whole city was quiet, as if... it was like an empty city, with only the neat footsteps of soldiers echoing on the streets, which in turn highlighted the emptiness of the city.
Although the Grand Duke and others did not expect that children holding flowers would appear in the city, shouting "Welcome, welcome" in their clear voices, and then several young girls in colorful clothes would appear, dancing a welcome dance, and finally
Another group of people put up slogans such as humans and Semites will always be friends, etc...
However, this is too empty.
Mr. Lei came happily from behind and squeezed through the crowd impatiently. Xiaobai also followed behind Leo, banging his big head around.
The Caribbean Port is an important part of Chairman Leo's legendary experience. It is the starting point of Semitic heroic deeds and the place where Mr. Lei lived and fought. Chairman Leo has a deep affection for the Caribbean.
There are also many friends of Mr. Lei here, such as the housekeeper of the city lord's mansion, the steward of the dock, the owner of the theater, etc.
This time Lei Erye is starring in the drama of Return of the King. He can wait for the whole Caribbean people to give him a good tug.
But when Mr. Lei squeezed through the crowd and saw the image in front of him, he couldn't help but froze. Then he pulled down the sunglasses on his face, blinked, looked carefully, and then blurted out: "I
Let's go, now we're in trouble."
Several years ago, when Mr. Lei was a trainee governor, Catherine often set up various problems to make things difficult. For example, there was a coup every three days or something.
The most troublesome and worrying thing among them is that all those ungrateful common people have escaped~!
Then he followed a group of careerists and became a rebel army.
The loss was just a simulation at the time and did not really happen. Therefore, Mr. Lei did not have too many feelings.
But now, when the situation of these dead people running away was truly presented in front of him, even with Lei Erye's boldness, he felt that the matter was difficult. "All the people have run away. Whose protection fee are you going to collect?"
Who can he ask to be his soldier or thug, go to other people's homes to act like a hooligan, and steal money and things?
Without these mud-legged people, who would be able to farm their own land?
Who will you become a noble for?
At this time, everyone couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly: It seems that the Semitic people's prejudice against human beings is really too deep.
I remember that even though Archduke Julius was known throughout the continent as a butcher, every time he conquered a city, he would still see some people who were unwilling to leave, and he was not worried that Archduke Julius would slaughter them all.
But now, as soon as they saw the human warships coming, these Semitic people didn't hesitate at all. They all rolled up their small bags and ran away as soon as possible.
It can be seen that the Semitic distrust of human beings has seeped into their bones.
And this is still in the Caribbean Port, which is the most open place for the Semitic people.
But on the other hand, the same is not true for humans. As soon as they heard that the demons were about to attack, no matter the nobles, commoners, farmers, wealthy businessmen, etc., they all rolled up their packages and fled eastward without their lives.
After all, both sides have been taught this way for a thousand years. As long as the other side comes to kill, they will definitely kill themselves.
When the Semites invaded the human continent a thousand years ago, they also engaged in massacres. The land was covered with red land for thousands of miles and mountains of corpses were recorded in various history books.
Eight hundred years ago, the Holy See's expeditionary force entered the Caribbean and killed all the Semitic people in the city.
Under the iron-clad historical facts, those who don't run are fools.
Grand Duke Julius couldn't help but sigh. Even though he didn't understand politics, he also knew that how to resolve the deep-seated distrust between the two sides was definitely an arduous task.
The purpose of mankind's war is to eliminate the high priest of the undead and the evil spirits under him, and to prevent the undead from launching another war against mankind.
It is not that we want to be enemies of the industrious, kind-hearted and brave Semitic people.
In fact, with the Semitic population of hundreds of millions and the vast land, once a full-scale war breaks out, it will be enough to drag mankind into a deep quagmire of war.
Just like the first expedition launched by Pope Urban, in the face of the powerful Semitic and Undead coalition forces, even if humans tried their best, they could only maintain themselves in the Caribbean. In three hundred years, they could not
Taking another step forward will only end in failure.
At the beginning of the war, the coalition forces had already decided that attacking the city was the priority, and attacking the heart was the top priority. Forming an anti-undead alliance with the Semites was the primary strategic goal.
Therefore, if humans want to eliminate the high priest, after landing in the Caribbean and achieving military occupation of the port, the first step is to gain the trust of the Semitic people.
Only by establishing a good reputation among the coalition forces will future battles be easier.
This is a military task as well as a political task.
This group of people were all elites, and they had figured out the key in just over ten seconds.
But how to win the trust of the people is a critical issue that they cannot solve. No one in this group is a politician.
Wait. Maybe. There is another one...
When everyone was thinking this, out of habit, they all turned their attention to Lorraine.
This gangster had been a governor and had formed an alliance and friendship with the Almohads, so he was full of bad ideas. No matter what the matter was, it was absolutely right to leave it to him.
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Lorraine was a little overwhelmed. At that moment, she had to smile bitterly and said: "Okay, I understand, leave this matter to me."
Everyone looked at each other and laughed.
The Grand Duke patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young man, don't be like this. Leaving this matter to you is also a sign of everyone's trust in you. Don't let down our expectations."
City Lord Brad... uh. The Interim President of the Semitic Tribe also smiled and said: "Lorraine, I wouldn't trust this matter to anyone else. He who can do it should do the hard work. Haha, hahahaha..."
After all, Lord Lorraine is the only person that both sides can trust at present, and there is no one more suitable than him in the coalition forces.
After the Grand Duke and the President finished teasing Lorraine, they looked at each other with a feeling of sympathy. The original distance became much closer in an instant.
President Bullard said: "I also have a bottle of 40-year-old Galliver red wine there. Pair it with ice cubes and cigars. The taste is absolutely delicious."
Grand Duke Julius also smiled and said: "It just so happens that I also have top-quality Trinidad gold handmade cigars."
Brad raised his eyebrows and said: "The gold handmade Trinidad? The kind that a young girl rubs on her snow-white thighs with her hands and licks and seals it with her own tongue?"
Grand Duke Julius didn't say anything, but laughed lewdly.
The two looked at each other, then laughed, and then walked side by side towards the city. The other officers followed closely behind.
Fiona immediately wanted to follow, but was immediately grabbed by Lorraine and said, "Wait a moment."
He paused for a moment and looked at the commander of the Fourth Division, Melun, who was squeezing into the crowd and was about to walk towards the city. He immediately shouted: "General Melun, please wait a moment too."
Melun couldn't help but hesitate, looked at Lorraine rather resentfully, and finally had to stop.
Lorraine then called another officer and said: "Pass my order to move that large-scale persuasive weapon to the Grand Duke's war fortress. I will use it immediately."
Among all the war fortresses, the Grand Duke's was the most comfortable. It had been transformed into a luxurious flying office, and the Lord naturally commandeered it without ceremony.
The officer immediately agreed, turned around and left quickly with the wind at his feet.
This is also understandable. If you finish delivering the order and then rush to the city lord's palace, the festive banquet may not be over yet.
At that time, it is very likely that I can find a young and beautiful Semitic aristocratic lady as my dance partner to talk about life, art, philosophy and so on.
Fiona looked in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion rather resentfully. Although she had not seen her for two or three years, she really wanted to see her mother. However, as a royal family, responsibility always comes first. She had to comfort her.
People who fled the city.
After a while, the three of them had already boarded the war fortress.
A colonel officer ran forward and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, our propaganda squadron is fully prepared."
These guys had nothing to do after having enough food all day long, and they were already feeling uncomfortable with their idle time. Every day they were eager to create another miracle of using the trumpet to recruit all the enemies to surrender.
Lorraine looked around and saw that the equipment was basically in place, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, the war fortress shook slightly and flew up, roaring towards the inland.
Next to it, more than a dozen war fortresses also hurriedly took off, following closely behind it.

At this time, on the road leading to the rear from the Caribbean, people with their families, leading oxen, donkeys, and horse-drawn carriages, were marching with difficulty.
The sounds of animals, women's complaints, men's roars, children's screams, the grinding of vehicle axles... all kinds of sounds came together to form a noisy din.
From time to time, someone would come from the side road and join their team.
Everyone had a gloomy look on their faces and kept moving forward, fearing that if they were any slower, the humans behind them would catch up and kill them all.
Humans did this hundreds of years ago. They will definitely do it again now.
The only thing that is a bit pity is the Lord of Iskander and his men.
Those loyal and brave warriors must be engaged in a bloody battle with the hateful humans now, using their blood and lives to buy everyone time.
In the past, when I saw those bastards collecting taxes from me, I thought they were disgusting, but now at a critical moment, when I see them stepping forward, everyone feels a little guilty.
Under this situation, everyone will naturally walk faster.
When Lorraine rose into the air in the war fortress, he saw that the fleeing team had traveled more than ten miles. Even at the end, the slowest-moving people were already two or three miles away from the city.
Lord Luo couldn't help but sweat. These dead people could run very fast.
You must know that from the time humans appeared on the sea to the time they landed at the port, it was only a mere three or five hours.
He even wondered if the news of this landing had been leaked. The Caribbean people had received the news in advance and had already packed their bags, waiting for the humans to kill them and run away.
Fiona looked at the smoke and dust rising on the avenue and couldn't help but smile bitterly. At the same time, she felt a hint of pride in her heart: The quality of us Caribbean people is very high. We have traveled so far in such a short time.
A mere ten miles away was nothing to a war fortress. With just a weak boost, they had already passed the fleeing teams and arrived at the forefront of them.
Seeing the war fortress passing overhead, the fleeing people suddenly panicked.
In panic, some people even screamed uncontrollably.
At this time, the war fortress had turned around and was hovering at a height of more than ten meters in the air, looking down at everyone from a high position.
The common people all stopped involuntarily, staring at the war fortress hanging above their heads in panic all day long, as if they had seen a man-eating beast, and did not dare to make any move. For fear of attracting its attention and attracting death.
disaster.
Lorraine stood at the window, looking at the people below. He was about to speak, but hesitated and handed the microphone to Melun next to him.
After all, he is a local, and if he speaks, it will be more credible to the local people.
Suddenly seeing Lorraine handing the microphone to him, he felt flattered. Like all country bumpkins who had never seen high technology, Melun had an instinctive awe for such high-tech things. He was afraid of sneezing.
Such a valuable thing would be damaged.
He hurriedly took the phone, calmed down for a while, and then shouted into the phone: "Hey, hello, hello..."
The sound is amplified by the conduction of electric current, and has been amplified dozens of times when it comes out of the speaker.
The people below were in an uproar: Then... what on earth is that thing that can make such a loud sound?
Based on the universal truth that "a banana is big, a banana peel is also big", these ignorant people immediately sketched in their minds a giant with a height of eight meters and a waist circumference of eight meters.
Melun thought for a moment, then covered the phone with his hand and asked in a low voice: "That...that, what should I say to them?"
Lorraine sighed and said: "Just tell them carefully that humans come here without any malicious intent. Eliminate their fear. Do you understand?"
Melun suddenly understood, then coughed again, and shouted loudly: "Fellows, fellows, don't be afraid. Don't worry. Everyone go home quickly. Human beings are not malicious. They don't steal food or women.
Really, they don’t rob food, nor do they rob women...ah~~~!..."
The people below were all shocked when they heard the scream. They looked at each other for a while, not knowing what to do.
And Lorraine was in the war fortress, staring fiercely at Melun who fell on the ground, and a huge and clear footprint could be seen on his butt.
Lord Luo cursed in his heart: This idiot has failed to achieve anything but failed. No matter how you hear this, it seems weird.
Even if the common people want to go back, they have to think carefully after hearing this.
If he hadn't known that Melun was Fiona's cousin, Lord Luo would have almost thought that this guy was a spy sent by the Semitic tribe.
He turned his head, looked at Fiona next to him, and said, "Tell me."
Lorraine paused for a moment, and then added without caring that Melun was still there: "Don't make something like this shit for me."
Fiona immediately smiled and made an OK gesture.
She picked up the phone, coughed slightly, and then said: "People in the Caribbean, I am Fiona, Iskander, yes, I am the daughter of your city lord, and I came back from the human race.
Don’t worry, everyone. Human beings are not here to fight with us this time. So there is no need to worry that they will steal our things... Oops..."
Hearing her cries of pain, the Semitic people couldn't help but be startled again.
In the war fortress, after Lorraine gave her a chestnut, she took back her hand bitterly. If he hadn't looked at her tearful look, the lord would have given her another one.
Sir Alex found that letting them be responsible for shouting was simply causing trouble for him, so he might as well do it himself.
He grabbed the microphone from the grave, and then shouted loudly: "Common people in the Caribbean below, listen, I am Lorraine, yes, the same Lorraine who once caused trouble among the Semitic people and defeated the high priest.
…”
Fiona couldn't help but roll her eyes after hearing this. Lorraine actually dared to put gold in her face. When did he defeat the high priest?
Lorraine didn't care and continued: "Our army is not here to snatch your land this time. In fact, we don't want to come at all."
The people below looked at each other, all showing resentment: This girl is telling lies with her eyes open, does she think everyone is an idiot? If you don’t want to come, why are you here? Do you want to invite us to dinner?
We are both soldiers and cannons, do you think we are blind?
Lorraine paused, took a deep breath, and then dropped an earth-shattering bombshell~! (To be continued...)
