I am a god in another world

Chapter 1175 Public Opinion War, You Are All Grandsons

"Hared, the third son of Alemand IV, once changed his name to Helm, and served Elminster as a scribe in the Valley of Shadows. Now he has gone to Waterdeep City to light the flag there and is recruiting knights. With the mercenaries, prepare to return to Tethyr. Even if we don't welcome him back, he will come back soon."

Duke Walter knew the situation of the new king very well, and it was obvious that he paid attention to him for more than a day or two. In other words, the new king had never escaped his sight.

This is the political wisdom of a mature and veteran politician. He has already laid out the plan a long time ago.

In many situations in the Kingdom of Tethyr, this card is the king bomb.

"Legendary Archmage Elminster? You mean he supports Prince Hared?"

"If he is secretly supporting Prince Hared, then the Harper is not far away!"

"Old Duke, are you sure you're not raising a tiger for trouble?"

The expressions of the three Dukes changed drastically and they asked at the same time.

The shadow of a person's famous tree, the name of Faerun's greatest mage is not just blown away.

If he touches the political situation of the Kingdom of Tethyr, he will definitely not enjoy their good harvest.

Duke Walter said calmly: "I admit that Archmage Elminster's spellcasting ability is unrivaled, but in terms of political ability, he is unqualified.

If he really had strong political ability, the valley would have been unified long ago instead of still being divided.

The student he taught was not a politician, but an idealistic scholar. "

"So that's the case, then I'm relieved!"

"Let me just say that according to the old Duke's political wisdom, he will not do the stupid act of digging his own grave. I don't have any problems."

"The biggest problem now is whether Duke Zebel wants to part with Tesselburg."

When everyone heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In their eyes, scholars were often equated with innocence.

The most important thing is their trust in Duke Walter's political wisdom. He must have made a systematic assessment of Prince Hared and determined that he poses no threat to their dominance.

At least it will not exceed the threat posed to them by the Lord of Zalanda.

Duke Zebel was not the kind of person who was willing to suffer losses. He put forward his own conditions and said, "It is not impossible to give up Tessel Castle, but the city defense force there is still under my control, and you are responsible for allocating the support."

"Don't be so clever. Since the future royal court is no longer in Zazesibo, the city defense of Tessel Castle cannot be left to one party. At least all four of us must have our own guards. "

"You can spend more money, but you must not spend more people. I, Saradas, am willing to send 300 Pegasus cavalry and 1,000 light cavalry to defend the royal court."

"We, Mylatma, sent out three hundred winged dragon cavalry and a thousand tiger guards."

"We, Zaze Sibo..."

"We Willen..."

The four dukes have entered a new round of competition for carve-up. They are striving for their right to speak in the new royal court.

This is a process of mutual compromise and mutual transactions, in which collusion and alliances are indispensable.

They used practical actions to explain that there are four people but six groups. In different situations, their allies are different.

In this way, they squeezed out a policy of welcoming the king back to the capital like toothpaste.

Under the huge pressure from Darauma, their action efficiency was so high for the first time. They had just reached a consensus, and the riders set off on the road with a burst of publicity along the way.

Just as the dukes wished, the Tethyrs who heard the news burst into joy and spontaneously celebrated with gongs and drums.

The royal family of the Kingdom of Tethyr prospered and then declined. It was destroyed by a conspiracy against the royal family. Most of the members of the royal family died permanently overnight, which caused the entire kingdom's power class to lose control. It was not their own reversal.

In addition, the destruction of the royal family did not last long, and there are still countless people who still remember the rule of the royal family.

Rather than missing the royal family, they missed the strength and stability of the Tethyr Kingdom at that time.

Among them, the territory centered on Darauma City is naturally the focus of publicity.

"Have you heard? Our king is coming back, and our Kingdom of Tethyr is going to be reunited."

"You are so naive. The memory phantoms of the past two years have been in vain. You still haven't fully understood the real source of disaster for our Kingdom of Tethyr!"

"What is the source of our misfortune?"

"The source of our disaster is neither the monsters in the wilderness nor the two powerful enemies of Amn and Calimshan, but the nobles. It is their struggle for power and greed that has led to our poverty and displacement."

"Do you think those noble gentlemen will really be kind enough to completely return their power to the royal family? Don't have any wishful thinking. It's just a puppet and a tool they support. Nothing will change.

On the contrary, it will become a tool to attack our Dalauma. What if, under the control of those noble gentlemen, the legitimacy of the Lord of Zalanda is denied and we are replaced with a new Lord of the City? "

"How is this possible? How can a wise king do such a stupid thing? The achievements of the Lord of Zalanda can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye."

"Those noble gentlemen are preparing to welcome the king back. We don't know what he looks like, so how can we be sure that he is wise? What if he is a fool?"

"Your words are a bit treasonous and slanderous."

"Just assume he is not a fool, but I am afraid that he will be forced to do so by those nobles. What should we do then?"

"What else can we do? Of course we will not accept it. Don't forget who saved us when we were oppressed by those nobles, who protected us when those monsters attacked us, and who gave us work and food!"

"It was Zalanda, our Lord of Zalanda!"

"That's right, such a person deserves to be called a king. We have only one king, that is our queen, Queen Zalanda."

"Long live Queen Zalanda."

The citizens of Dalaoma City were obviously not interested in this news.

Many of them had fallen to the bottom of life before this, struggling on the survival line.

What saved them was not the royal family that had already gone into exile, but their Lord Zalanda, who gave them jobs and gave them the opportunity to earn food and survive.

The most important thing is that Gavin has laid a good foundation for Zalanda. As early as two years ago, when the Conqueror's Road was opened, they had already started large-scale propaganda and education, and began to prepare for the war of public opinion.

After two years of development, this mode of ideological dissemination has penetrated into all aspects of Dalaoma.

Those propaganda slogans have already been painted all over the streets.

Hard work can make you rich!

If you want to get rich, build roads first!

Tethyr and the Valley are one family!

Have more children and raise more people, and prosper!

Long live Zalanda!

Long live the Conqueror Gavin!

Magic technology is the primary productive force, etc.

There are also those memory projections that are fixed at the end of the street and played in a loop. The content played is not fixed, but updated regularly.

Basically, they keep up with current affairs or popular science, and instill some basic knowledge into the minds of those citizens, which naturally includes some political ideas.

The original outdoor projection has also been preserved, but the scale is far less than that. Instead, it is divided into small pieces in the mode of streets, and played uniformly at a fixed time, for three hours a day.

The content played is not all entertainment.

Many of them are popular science education, and some are even used to teach some practical life skills. With professional teachers explaining them, this is a new model of universal education.

In this era of severe lack of entertainment and education, the thirst for knowledge of ordinary people is beyond imagination, and the enthusiasm that bursts out is difficult to understand without being in it.

There is no need to urge them at all. As long as the time comes, they will wait there on time, even if it is windy and rainy, they can't be stopped.

The effect is also very significant.

After two years of continuous efforts, the people under the rule of Zalanda and Gavin dare not say that they have achieved 100% literacy. As long as there is no problem with intelligence, some of the simplest arithmetic and reading and writing in daily life are no problem, and the knowledge reserve is definitely above that of humans in other regions.

Many people have begun to be dissatisfied with these basic things. In some special places, such as textile factories, more professional knowledge training has begun.

With the previous cognitive foundation and a little bit of public opinion guidance, Dalaoma was not greatly affected by the matter of welcoming the king back to the capital, but was united internally.

Zalanda, who was pregnant, looked at Gavin with a suspicious look and said, "Did you expect this day to come, so you started to plan in advance?"

"Yes." Gavin admitted openly, "Those noble warlords will do everything to win. Once we develop to the point where they can't contain us, they will certainly plan to put their plans on the exiled royal family and want to restrict and disintegrate us through political means.

But what do you think about this matter?"

This time it was Gavin's turn to stare at Zalanda with a sharp look.

To be honest, when he got the news, he was really shocked. He hurriedly ended the meeting with Raymond, the lord of Retawen City, and returned to Zalanda.

Compared to the history he knew, the event of welcoming the king back to the capital was at least six or seven years earlier.

I found a correct version in the 16-9 book forum!

It was normal. With his help, Zhalanda took control of Dalauma City several years earlier. She was no longer fighting alone. With the continuous blood transfusion of Colossus City and Blood Gorge City, the development speed was more than ten times faster than in her previous life.

The order of many things was mixed up. For example, the joining of Moss Stone City and Retaven was nine years later, in 1370.

At that time, the Kingdom of Tesser had reunited - through political compromise.

Although Zhalanda was elected as the queen, she was forced to marry the scholar king Hared III, recognized the ruling status of the original noble families, kept the original territory unchanged, moved the capital from Zazesper City to Dalauma City, and established the court ruling council to rule the Kingdom of Tesser with their assistance.

The result was the same old story. The so-called queen's power was very limited, and her decrees were limited to the area around Dalauma. Beyond this range, it depended on whether the noble warlords cooperated. Even the later joined Ritaven was in this situation.

In order to check and balance these noble warlords, Zaranda dragged the five local governments he had previously visited into the palace ruling council - the Archdruid of Mossstone City, the Dwarf Shieldbearer of the Vortex Mountains, the Forest Singer of the Wildas Forest, the Hill Voice of the Halflings and the Dwarf Spokesman.

But they all belong to a minority race and their voices are relatively limited.

Now Retaven has been tied to their chariot by Gavin first, and Lord Raymond said that he would stand firmly on the side of Lord Zalanda and support her unconditionally.

It is impossible not to get on the car, because Retaven is sandwiched between Dalauma City, Colossus City and Blood Gorge City.

As long as Dalauma City is involved in the Tethyr civil war, regardless of whether Retaven City wants to remain neutral, in order to keep the supply line safe, Gavin will take it down as soon as possible.

It was the plan of the four dukes to welcome the king back to the capital that helped Gavin dispel the last hesitation of Lord Raymond.

Gavin is most worried about Zalanda going back to the old path of his previous life and accepting political compromise for the sake of so-called national justice and the safety of the people of Tesser.

Zalanda's face was full of fighting spirit and he said, "I remember you said that an incomplete revolution is equivalent to no revolution. If the old forces of the Kingdom of Tesser are not crushed, this country will never be able to radiate new vitality, let alone thrive.

If they want to play the so-called political game, let them play.

They are not the only ones who can listen to the announcement but not the instructions. I can do the same.

I want to see what new tricks they can play at that time! Will they shoot themselves in the foot!"

Gavin's long-term subtle influence has succeeded.

Many of the ideas in her words no longer belong to her, but are instilled in her by him.

At least the concept of struggle is not to pin hope on others.

And the situation she is in now is also very different from that in the previous life. For example, the situation is more favorable, and for example, there are three babies in her belly, which is why Gavin is overjoyed when he hears the news.

"As long as you have the will to fight, the rest will be easy." Gavin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "First of all, you must not go to the capital to meet the new king.

Whether it is to congratulate the new king on his ascension to the throne, to formally grant you the status of duke, or to invite you to join the ruling council to participate in politics, don't go.

Your ruling position in Dalauma does not need their recognition. In the worst case, they will just raise an army to attack you in the name of the new king.

If they have the ability, they would have done it long ago and would not wait until now.

In order to compete with Am and Calimshan for the right to develop the new continent, they have invested too much manpower and material resources, and there is no spare energy for them to start a large-scale war!"

His current expansion in Tesser is of course deliberate.

Gavin is naturally clear about the discovery of the new continent Maztec Continent. He even had the idea of ​​​​it and wanted to put his first pot of gold after rebirth on it.

Just a little consideration and then gave up. There are too many uncontrollable factors, and it is necessary to stay away from the continent of Faerun for a long time.

The most important thing is the issue of ships.

This takes time to accumulate. It is more profitable to play as a country.

Instead of fighting small battles, it is better to support Zalanda to unify the entire Kingdom of Tethyr as soon as possible, and compete with Am and Calimshan on the sea as a country.

When they invest a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources in the new world, they will naturally not be able to interfere in the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Tethyr, and the resistance to unification will be smaller.

This is another reason why the city of Retaven turned to them. Lord Raymond knew that the Kingdom of Am could no longer provide him with shelter for the time being, and the same revenge power would be much smaller.

"I'm not stupid. How could I not know such a simple truth?" Zalanda stroked her big belly and said, "Even if I don't cherish my own life, I will cherish them. Let alone being crowned Duke, even if I am crowned Queen, I will not go.

This is not conferred by them, but decided by the people of Tethyr."

"It's great that you can understand this truth." Gavin was completely relieved. "You can refuse their invitation, but you can't refuse to attend the Winter Feast.

But I have made preparations in advance, and I can deal with it calmly even if the due date is reached."

In Gavin's eyes, the protagonist of this Winter Feast is neither the Earth Bear nor the Goliath, but the woman in front of him, his wife, the mother of his child.

"What tricks are you going to do?" Zalanda's eyebrows have unconcealed doubts and a little expectation.

The man in front of him always brings him unexpected surprises.

"Armed Cloud Ray, it's an armed cloud ray, it's even bigger than the legend."

"Beautiful, so beautiful, it's a perfect combination of power and beauty."

"How can this be a weapon? It's clearly a small air fortress!"

A commotion came from outside, filled with heartfelt admiration.

"Just in time for them to arrive, let's go out and take a look." Gavin took Zalanda's hand and walked to the balcony.

The bedroom where Zalanda was was the main room of this small monastery, the highest point here. Looking out from the balcony, the surrounding situation was in full view.

A huge monster was slowly descending from the sky, it was the armed cloud ray.

Although they only appeared briefly in the East Region of Despair, the combat power they displayed was enough to impress the world, and Zhalanda was one of the witnesses.

However, the armed cloud ray in front of him was far from the impression of being armed to the teeth. On the contrary, it revealed the royal nobility from the inside out. On the oval belly cabin, there were not only huge knight shields on both sides, but also a huge name - the Queen.

They were not engraved on it, but suspended in the air in the form of magic, extremely conspicuous, and could be clearly seen even thousands of meters away.

Although he had already guessed it in his heart, Zhalanda still couldn't help asking: "Isn't this for me?" (End of this chapter)
