Chapter 304 Execution Day

In Kalmar City, smart people in civilian areas or poor areas have begun to notice that there is an undercurrent in the city. After the navy withdrew from these two areas, troubadours who had disappeared in the city appeared one after another. This kind of extreme thought induces and incites the emotions of the local people, making the local people increasingly dissatisfied with the navy and the aristocratic rulers.

And those who took the opportunity to speak ill of William after he was imprisoned, and even fell into trouble and made a fortune when the power of the Morgan Group was withdrawn from the city, also died strangely during this period. There are both gang leaders and guards. The middle and lower ranks of the military officers, as well as the directors or bosses of some textile factories, as well as people from government departments, all left only a stick figure of a honey badger done with blood at the scene of the crime.

Everyone knew that this was revenge and a warning. People in the same position, or their successors, were afraid of the remnants of the Morgan Group and did not dare to risk their lives to investigate the truth, not to mention that they did not have the ability.

The deterrence of the Morgan Group and the Navy Headquarters changed little by little in the hearts of the local people. Of course, the real change was when the news that Karp left the city came.

Seeing that the originally invincible navy was mobilized frequently during this period, and was led by the nose by Morgan William's people, even the legendary navy Garp was the same. The local people's original fear of the navy could not be dissipated. few.

But that's all. On this night, apart from the relaxed and exciting atmosphere in the aristocratic district, the other areas of the city were filled with depressive emotions.

Tomorrow is the day when Morgan William will be executed. There are people drinking everywhere in the streets, taverns, homes, and the city. The common people are using alcohol to relieve their worries. It is said that the prohibition of alcohol will be restored again, coupled with the harsh economic environment However, unable to control the fate of this city and country, they can only choose to use alcohol to numb their nerves.

In addition, there are no people wearing work uniforms on the streets of the slums now, because at some point, there was a rumor that after William was executed, the navy and nobles who had freed up their hands would carry out the battle in the city again. In a big roundup, those unemployed workers who always like to wear work uniforms are likely to be regarded as William's remnants and thrown into prison.

But unlike the common people, the nobles are taking the opportunity to celebrate. They have secured their victory in advance. William will be executed, and the leadership of the army will return to the hands of the nobles. It is a leisurely way to exchange cups with the top generals of the army.

Under such circumstances, under the cover of night, a large number of people returned to the city one after another during this period, and the backbone loyal to William sneaked into the key departments of various local grassroots units. The occasional gunshots and murders did not arouse the local people Be more vigilant, because in the past few days, they have seen this kind of thing, and the resistance encountered by these backbones is not as much as imagined. During this period of assassination waves, people have been scared out of their wits up.

Morgan William's execution site was arranged in a square in the civilian area. The high platform here had already been erected. In the early morning of the next day, the flow of people gradually gathered here, but it was still very early before the execution time, and the large naval forces were all It hasn't come yet, only a few soldiers are taking care of the phone bugs here, and some soldiers of the garrison guard the high platform from being destroyed.

Those who can come here early are naturally those who care about William's safety. Fririsk also came, and he brought his sister, because almost all the neighbors and friends around his house were dispatched for this execution. I don't worry about leaving my elder sister who has a hidden disease alone at home, so I can only bring them here together.

There were more and more people around, but even so, the atmosphere was very dull, and the square was very quiet. Felisk held his sister's hand tightly to prevent her from running around.

As time passed, when the execution time was approaching, there was a commotion outside the originally quiet and dull crowd. People looked around, but found a few young people, protected by a line of strong guards, like the front of the crowd, away from the high platform. Squeeze to a very close place.

Naturally, there is no VIP room on the execution platform, and only King Norton I and the important ministers of the country have already designated positions during the execution.

But the people who came to watch the show from the aristocratic district in a victorious posture naturally wanted to stand in a good position and watch the death scene of Morgan William, the criminal who had caused them to suffer all kinds of suffering, from a close distance.

But they are not like people like Felisk who get up early and come to the execution platform to take a seat. When they arrive, the good positions around the execution platform have already been occupied. Standing outside very honestly, they ordered the guards to keep pushing and shoving the people in front, pushing the civilians away and walking towards the execution platform.

The civilians who were pushed and shoved glared at this, but after all, no one dared to challenge the nobles who had regained control of the country's ruling power in the public.

Felisk was originally a loyal supporter of William. He came early and had a good position, but he was snatched away by the nobles. He was not very courageous. Say more, prepare to avoid these nobles honestly.

It's just that Felisk's sister doesn't understand this. Her intelligence is about the same as that of a child. When she was pushed and shoved, she waved her arms and scratched, screaming and crying loudly, which made the young nobles surrounded by the guards feel agitated. Cursed: "A bunch of trash, tell her to shut up!"

The guard of the young nobleman was also disturbed by the call, and his hand was scratched a few times by Felisk's sister with her nails. Hearing the order, he slapped Felisk's sister directly. Seeing this, Felisk's eyes turned red , protecting her sister behind her, and wanted to go forward and say something to the guard, but before she could speak, she was also punched down by the guard. Seeing this, Felisk's sister covered her cheek with one hand, squatting down with an aggrieved expression. Come down and support Fririsk.

The guard glared at the siblings on the ground with a ferocious look, but when he looked up again, he found that the number of civilians around the group had increased at some point, and they were faintly surrounded.

A person behind the crowd asked loudly: "You guys are given the position, why are you beating people!?"

The young nobles were not afraid of the surrounding civilians at all. During this time, because the noble district was guarded by the navy and garrison, the riots in the city did not affect the nobles living here at all. The young and energetic nobles only knew that they had obtained Victory, and Morgan William's remnants were also arrested, everything was settled, and they didn't know much about the chaos that happened in the civilian areas and the slums.

What's more, he walked all the way just now, his unscrupulous appearance, and the indifferent actions of other civilians also fueled his arrogance.

Near the execution platform, Basco, the squad leader of the garrison who was in charge of guarding work, saw more and more people gathering in the place where Felisk and the others were from a distance, and felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly led the soldiers around him into the crowd and saw the surrounded After the young nobles, they hurriedly led people to protect them.

Seeing this, the young nobles became even more arrogant, and the guards who were a little guilty also regained their confidence.

The young nobleman glared at the civilians who were gathering more and more around him: "What's wrong with beating him? If you bastards don't go far away, I'll have someone beat you together!"
