"My lord! My lord!" When Tang Mo returned to his factory from Bunas, Tiger stumbled and rushed in front of him.
Tang Mo frowned. He had never seen Tiger in such a panic. Next to him, Weiss subconsciously held down the pistol on his waist.
A knight following Tiger also lost his temper. He almost crawled to Tang Mo's side and weakly shouted hoarsely to Tang Mo: "My lord! My lord! The count has been assassinated!"
"Huh? What's going on?" Tang Mo was stunned, and then looked at Tiger beside him in disbelief. Tiger stood there sadly, with tears in his eyes.
"Tell me clearly what's going on!" Tang Mo was still a little stunned and didn't quite believe what the envoy said.
"Sir, my lord! Count Fischerot was assassinated in Ice Crystal City and has... died." As the knight spoke, tears welled up.
He burst into tears and continued: "Sir, now Beiling is leaderless and is about to turn into a mess."
"Are you kidding me? How could anyone assassinate Lord Fisherot?" Tang Mo still didn't believe the news and asked coldly, staring at the knight.
The knight knelt down on one knee, took out a letter from his arms, and handed it to Tang Mo in front of him: "Sir! This is what the eldest lady asked me to deliver."
Tang Mo pulled the letter and saw the Beiling Wolf emblem on it, as well as the familiar font on the envelope.
He recognized that the words on the envelope were indeed the handwriting of Alice, who often wrote to him, so he opened the envelope and saw Alice's handwritten letter.
The handwriting is a little sloppy and wrinkled, and it can be seen that when writing this letter, Alice seemed to have collapsed very much. She was crying and very panicked.
The letter was very short, but it said a lot of things. Although Fishereau's death brought a huge blow to Alice, the 17-year-old girl still used her greatest perseverance to tell everything she could know.
Come to Tang Mo.
After Tang Mo read the letter, he folded the piece of paper and stuffed it into his pocket. He was now almost sure that Fischerot was indeed dead, and his death was very sudden.
It has to be said that Fischerot's death was both an accident and an inevitability. The appearance of Tang Mo delayed Fischerot's death, and also accelerated Fischerot's death...
Because of Tang Mo's appearance, Fischerot had new weapons, so he won the Battle of Beiling and thus delayed his own death.
But taking the Ice Crystal River and rapidly expanding the army also caused flaws in the security system around Fischerot, which directly led to Fischerot's death.
There was no other way. In order to provide Tang Mo with enough steel, Fischerot hijacked the steel of the Cyric Consortium. This directly caused Fischerot's intelligence system against the Cyric Consortium to suffer heavy losses, and indirectly caused him to target the Cyric Consortium.
The intelligence system failed.
After losing the early warning, Fischereau had no time to rebuild the intelligence system, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and solve the Battle of Northridge first.
This war indeed had a far-reaching impact. It not only exhausted Susus in one battle, but also ceded a large area of land south of the Ice Crystal River.
In this war, Fischereau saw that the military reform led by Tang Mo's weapons was imminent, so he sent a large number of his trusted officers to Bunas.
This further caused the dispersion of Fisherot's trusted men - some retainers were dispersed in the new land, some were dispersed in the expanded army, and some were sent to Bunas to study.
As a result, the rapidly expanding Fischerot Group naturally did not have enough manpower. The expansion resulted in fewer and fewer confidants staying with the Earl, which directly caused flaws in Fischerot's security system.
The lack of early warning intelligence, the defensive power was too diluted, and the joy of victory paralyzed the vigilance of some people, finally allowing the assassins to find an opportunity.
Ice Crystal City was originally a newly occupied place, and the personnel here were already very complex. In the end, the Earl had a problem here, which seemed sudden, but seemed to be expected.
However, this result was still a bit hard for Tang Mo to accept. In fact, assassinating a noble was not a simple matter, and its impact could definitely subvert many things.
After all, nobles are nobles, and there are some unwritten rules and unwritten rules among nobles. Trying not to assassinate each other is one of the more feared "hidden rules".
Because once an assassination method is used to assassinate a noble, it is possible for others to follow suit and use this simple and convenient way to deal with problems.
If everyone starts to use this simple method to target their enemies, then the personal safety of the nobles will become very fragile.
Because of this, even though the king and Cyric wanted Fisherot to die before, neither of them used the simpler method of assassination.
Of course, it's not that they really abide by the rules, but because it is actually very difficult to assassinate Fisherot in Wolf City, or in North Ridge.
Even so, looking at it from another perspective, that is, everyone is also unwilling to use assassination to break the rules of the game and make their own situation dangerous.
In short, assassinating an earl is definitely a big deal, and it is a big thing that incites hatred. The death of a noble will cause other nobles to share the same hatred and even cause turmoil in a kingdom, which is very uneconomical.
If the assassination of an earl is revealed and someone catches him, he will lose everything and be hanged by all the nobles.
Until the end, the black hands behind the death may be implicated, and all the conspirators will be killed to vent their hatred. This is not a threat, because there have been such examples before.
It is precisely because of such and such examples that everyone can continue to play in a relatively safe game environment, so that it will not cause chaos and panic, and it will not end up making you feel uneasy even when you sleep.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How dare they... attack a count!" Tang Mo clenched his fists, his tone full of anger.
He is now a nobleman, and assassinating a nobleman is simply a demonstration against him.
"Sir... you must avenge Lord Fischereau!" Tiger shed tears, pursed his lips, and said full of hatred.
"I have known Mr. Fisherow for many years. He is a good man. If you have a chance, sir, please help him find the murderer and bring that person to justice!" Weiss also said with anger.
Tang Mo gritted his teeth and was silent for a long time before looking at the two of them: "We have plenty of time for revenge. What we have to do now is to help the Earl stabilize Beiling and let his heirs control his inheritance.
Let’s continue the Luoning family.”
"You are right, sir." Tiger was startled, and then immediately agreed: "Beiling must be in chaos now."
"Then what should we do, sir." Weiss stood beside Tang Mo and asked.
"I want to go to Beiling!" Tang Mo raised his head, looked at the two people and said, "Go there and help Alice get everything that belongs to her."
"Call everyone here! I want to have a meeting!" Tang Mo ordered and walked into his factory without looking back.
On both sides of the factory gate, there are two new flags hanging vertically. The flags are red and look like they are dyed with blood.
And embroidered on this bright red flag is Tang Mo's clan emblem, or the symbol of Datang Industrial Group - the dragon.
It is the front of a dragon's head. The symmetrical design has been abstractly transformed into sharp edges and flat surfaces.
This was the first time that this kind of pattern appeared in this world. When Tang Mo said that it was a dragon, Weiss and others even found it difficult to accept it.
They feel that only the flame-breathing monsters in myths and legends can be called dragons, and there are many family emblems in this world that use dragons. There are countless crucian carps crossing the river, and they have never been seen before.
There is such a strange looking dragon.
They couldn't accept that the dragon had long beards like a catfish, nor could they accept that the dragon had antlers. In short, Tang Mo's dragon seemed to be somewhat incompatible with the dragons they knew.
But Tang Mo persisted and insisted on using this totem as his family emblem, so in the end everyone had no choice but to acquiesce that this was the symbol of Datang Industry.
By the time everyone walked into Tang Mo's office, they had already heard about the accident in Beiling.
Tang Mo glanced at Roger, and then said: "Something happened in Beiling. The Earl was assassinated. He was kind to me and was our ally, so we should do something for him."
After finishing speaking, he ordered: "Roger, Redman, Leo, Bernard and Loew, assemble the troops to ensure the security of the territory! If anyone takes the opportunity to attack Bunas, you must bury them completely
it's here!"
"Yes!" Redman, Bernard and Loew, who were wearing gray-green military uniforms, immediately stood at attention and saluted. Roger and Leo also immediately nodded and accepted the order.
Tang Mo nodded slightly, and then continued to order: "Tiger, Weiss, follow me to Beiling..."
"Sir, how many soldiers should we take?" Weiss had a premonition that something was wrong and asked directly. Bernard, Loew and Redman are senior commanders in Tangmo's security forces. In this case,
They all stayed in Bunas, which was very abnormal.
"Tiger! Gather all the North Ridge students in the school! Tell them the news of the murder of Lord Earl! Then assemble them and ask them to follow me!" Tang Mo did not answer Weiss' question, but looked at Tiger.
"Yes!" Tiger was stunned, but still faithfully obeyed Tang Mo's order.
"Just take them away!" Tang Mo looked at Weiss: "And my personal guards."
