Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

Chapter 268 Battle of Faith

Mitos is a native of Reese. He used to open a fruit shop in Reese, specializing in providing fresh fruits to brothels and hotels in Reese.

However, during the Great Plague, his business plummeted, and a large amount of fruit was unsaleable and eventually rotted in his hands. He lost a large sum of money and had to sell his house in Reese to pay off his debts.

Originally, he planned to join other Lysians who went bankrupt during the great plague to run a boat, but after learning about the Holy City of Natural Disasters that was under construction, he changed his mind and chose to come to the Holy City of Natural Disasters.

Unlike other people who come to live in the Holy City of Natural Disasters, he is not a believer in the God of Natural Disasters. He believes in the Night Lion. He chose the Holy City of Natural Disasters entirely because he believed that it contained huge business opportunities.

After arriving in the Holy City of Natural Disasters, he used the little funds he had on hand to buy a large amount of wheat and fruits, make fruit bread, and sell it to workers at various construction sites.

Later, he was spotted by the Shengxia Department official in charge of construction and signed a special supply contract with him to provide food for the workers.

By now, he has become the largest food supplier in the Holy City of Calamity. Not only does he provide food for the construction site, but he also supplies the desserts for the Chosen Corps.

As usual, Mitos led the team to deliver desserts to the Chosen Corps. While the servants were carrying the goods, he found the senior officers of the Corps to communicate and deepen their relationships.

Although Mitos has become the largest food supplier in the Calamity Holy City, he is not satisfied with this. He also hopes to capture the daily food supply of the Chosen Corps. The daily food consumption of five thousand people is not With a small amount of money, only by becoming the food supplier of the Chosen Corps can he truly secure his position as the largest food supplier in the Holy City of Natural Disaster.

As usual, the officers did not give him any promises, and he was not discouraged. He believed that with the deepening of communication, sooner or later he would get the long-term supply contract he wanted.

When Mitos led the people out of the military camp, a group of natural disaster rangers happened to come over. Judging from the blood on these rangers and the prisoners behind them, this group of rangers should have just completed their patrol mission and solved the problem. A gang of thieves.

"Captain Paan!" When he saw the captain leading the team, Mitos waved to him quickly and said loudly: "I was looking for you in the military camp just now. They said you were on a mission. Unexpectedly, I was about to leave, and I happened to meet you. This is definitely the arrangement of the God of Natural Disasters, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence. "

"Boss Mitos, I'm afraid you've told many people these sweet words!" Paan pulled the reins and stopped the horse, indicating to his men to continue leading the people back to the military camp, and then said to Mitos: "Same as before, Still didn’t get what you wanted, right?”

"It doesn't matter. I think everyone in the military camp should feel my sincerity. One day I will be honored to serve you." Mitos lowered his posture and said with a smile on his face.

Pan's relationship with Mitos was pretty good, and he received a lot of benefits from him, so he kindly reminded him and said: "It's useless, even if all the officers in the military camp agree to you, it's useless."

After hearing this, Mitos was stunned and asked, "Why?"

Paan thought for a while to confirm that what he was about to say did not involve any secrets, and then told him bluntly: "All the food and grass supplies of the Corps are directly allocated from the Military Logistics Department of the Shengxia Hall. Generally, they are allocated once a year, one at a time. The military logistics department is under the jurisdiction of the Military and Political Department, and you can only have a chance to become a military food supplier by going to the Summer Palace to negotiate with the Military and Political Department. "

Mitos' face became a little ugly, because he knew very well that if it was true as Paan said, then his chance of this contract would be equal to zero, because Tengshi Town, Red Guard City and New The Ridge City is a famous food-producing area. The God's Chosen Corps must allocate food from those places, and there will be no chance for others to interfere.

Pan seemed to see what Mitos was thinking, and gave a heart-warming reminder: "Although the people in the Military Logistics Department have tried their best to allocate enough food, there will still be some food shortages. At that time, the various corps could only purchase food locally. The suppliers of this part of the food would be recommended by the commanders of the local corps and then verified by the Military Logistics Department. "

After hearing this, Mitos immediately understood what he should do. He quickly thanked Pan and hinted that he would prepare a big gift.

Paan waved his hand nonchalantly and rode back to the military camp.

When he dismounted and was about to go to the military camp's combat statistics office to report the situation and record his military exploits, the adjutant of the military camp commander found him and took him to the commander's office.

"Sir, what's the matter?" Paan came to the commander, saluted him, and then asked.

While processing official documents, the commander asked, "What did you just say to that dessert vendor?"

The commander of the God's Chosen Corps in the Holy City of Natural Disaster is Adam Hightower. He is a branch of the Hightower family in Old Town. He came to Midsummer Hall with Moroya and joined the God's Chosen Corps. Until today, he was transferred from outside Midsummer Hall. The Holy City of Natural Disasters.

Adam's ability is not outstanding, he only stands out as a steady and cautious person in his work. Therefore, when selecting the commander of the Divine Chosen Corps of the Natural Disaster Holy City, he was able to stand out from a group of strong opponents.

In the past few years, he has managed the Divine Chosen Corps very well, and has perfectly completed every task assigned by the Summer Hall. There is news coming from the Summer Hall that he should be transferred back to the Summer Hall to accept the Holy Redemption. Tang's trial of loyalty.

He speculated that as long as he passed the loyalty test, he would become the new commander-in-chief of the Chosen Corps.

This also made him be very careful recently to avoid anything going wrong at this critical moment, so when he saw Parn talking to Mitos on the balcony just now, he felt something was wrong and immediately called Parn up to ask about the situation.

Paan didn't know the reason why the commander called him. He just knew that he couldn't lie at this time, so he reported what happened just now seriously.

After hearing this, Adam Hightower was silent for a moment and said: "Interfering in government affairs without authorization will be deprived of first-class military merit once and twenty lashes."

Paan was stunned for a moment, did not retort, and directly accepted the punishment.

Adam was very satisfied with Paan's reaction, and then signaled that Paan could withdraw.

"Sir, is your punishment a bit harsh?" After Paan retreated, the adjutant on the side expressed some grievances for Paan and said: "The things Paan said are public matters. As long as there is a will, anyone can Everyone can find out this information from the city hall. You punished Paan for these public information and deprived him of a first-class military merit. I feel it is a bit excessive. "

Adam Hightower was not angry because of the adjutant's doubts. He said solemnly: "Yes, those things are public, but they are within the scope of government affairs after all. Anyone can say these things, only people from the Corps. It cannot be said that it is a taboo for the Corps to interfere in government affairs. Don't forget those nobles who were punished last year. Even Lord Mitt, who has been with Lord Linde for the longest time, was punished. I don't want Paan to be ruined because of these inconspicuous things. The past."

After hearing his boss's words, the adjutant said nothing more.

At this time, an officer hurriedly walked in from the outside and said: "Sir, the Seven Gods believers and the natural disaster believers in the Corps have another conflict. Go and have a look!"

When Adam Hightower heard this, his expression instantly became extremely gloomy, and he hurried out of the office, and under the leadership of the officer, hurried towards the military camp.

Soon they arrived at the place where the quarrel was taking place. A lot of people had gathered there. Except for some spectators, the people involved in the quarrel were divided into two sides. Their affiliations could be clearly distinguished from the patterns on their armors.

Those who have the emblem of the Seven Gods engraved on their armor are warriors of the Chosen Corps of the Seven Gods, while those who have the special symbol of the Terra family emblem engraved on their armor are warriors of the Chosen Corps of the Scourge Gods. The two sides are in a tense confrontation. , argued loudly, and waved their fists towards the opposite side, but no one drew their weapons, or even put their hands on the weapons.

Adam Hightower stood in the middle of the dispute and shouted loudly: "Shut up, everyone! All participants will go to the Military Law Office to receive twenty lashes from me, and the leader will receive forty lashes, and a month's military pay will be waived."

Although Adam directly gave the punishment without asking the reason, no one around him was unconvinced and stopped arguing one after another and went to the military courts in their respective camps to receive punishment.

For example, this conflict has occurred more than once in the past. As long as no force is used, punishment only needs to be based on past examples.

Although Adam wanted to solve this problem before he left office, he finally gave up because this was not only an issue within the army, but also involved two religions.

The Chosen Corps that were initially transferred to the Holy City of Natural Disasters were all believers of the Seven Gods. However, many soldiers later converted to the God of Natural Disasters because they believed that the God of Natural Disasters was closer to the object of their allegiance.

In recent years, the Divine Chosen Corps of the Holy City of Natural Disasters has recruited many warriors in disputed areas and the Free Trade City-State. Most of these warriors are believers of the God of Natural Disasters. The proportion of believers of the Seven Gods and believers of natural disasters within the corps From the initial nine to one, it has become four to six now, and conflicts between the two sides due to different beliefs have gradually increased.

In fact, the main reason for the conflict is that believers of the Seven Gods believe that Linde is the chosen god of the Seven Gods, and the belief in the God of Natural Disasters originated from Linde, so the God of Natural Disasters is inherently inferior to the Seven Gods.

The believers of the God of Natural Disasters naturally do not want the gods they believe in to be inferior to others. They can only sophistry and claim that Lind is the chosen god of the gods. The Seven Gods only occupy a part, and the God of Natural Disasters also occupies a part. Therefore, the God of Natural Disasters and the God of Natural Disasters There is no distinction between the seven gods, and the most convincing evidence for this sophistry is that the Church of the Storm God also regards Lind as the incarnation of the Storm God.

After resolving the conflict, Adam Hightower returned to the office to record the conflict as usual and put it into the accident file that was to be submitted back to the Military and Political Department of the Midsummer Hall.

Adam Hightower just treated this conflict over faith as a normal incident, but in Summer Hall, this matter had been placed on Lind's desk, and Lind had assigned the God of Summer Hall to him for this purpose. All the commander-level officers in the selection group who were not performing tasks were called to the castle to hold a meeting on this matter.

"Sir, there is no need to discuss this. Those heretics should not taint the Chosen Corps of the Seven Gods. They should all be expelled." Brandon River, the commander of the Heavenly Father Corps of the Chosen Corps, is an extremely pious man. A believer of the Seven Gods, he was originally the captain of the Chosen Sons, but when the Chosen Corps expanded, he was assigned to the Chosen Corps as the commander of the Heavenly Father Corps.

After the second expansion of the God's Chosen Corps, the standing strength has reached 35,000, and the reserve strength is 30,000. Together with the servants, the total strength has reached approximately 80,000 or 90,000.

In order to facilitate management, Linde divided the 35,000 standing troops into seven different 5,000-man regiments according to the names of the seven gods.

The four corps of Heavenly Father, Holy Mother, Blacksmith and Old Woman are all commanded by elites among the chosen sons of God, but the commanders of the three corps of Maiden, Stranger and Warrior are not all believers in the Seven Gods.

"Sir Brandon, don't forget that the people you call heretics are also warriors loyal to Lord Linde. Many of them have followed Lord Linde for many years and have made more military exploits than all of you here. "The commander of the Stranger Corps, Hassan Morai, looked at Brandon Hewen coldly and said solemnly: "I think you are mistaken about one thing. The Chosen Corps is loyal to Prince Linde. It is not the Seven Gods. The Chosen Corps is not the church arm of the Church of the Seven Gods. Please do not use religious beliefs to handle the affairs of the Corps. "

Hassan Morai was not from Westeros but from Braavos, and he was the singer playing the violin by the moonpool that day.

The main reason why he came to Summer Hall was because he was attracted by the song now called Storm Overture. In his words, he was inspired by Linde.

He was originally a water dancer sword master. After joining the Chosen Corps, he quickly stood out. After that, he completed various trials and was selected to become the commander of the Stranger Corps a year ago.

He is different from Brandon River. He believes in the Thousand-Faced God. In his opinion, the Stranger is a clone of the Thousand-Faced God, and Lind is regarded by him as the incarnation of the Thousand-Faced God, because Lin De There are so many identities of Germany, including the Storm God, the God of Natural Disasters, the Seven Gods, and even the belief in the Night Lion are all related to it. This is very consistent with the Thousand-Faced God who has thousands of incarnations.

And the reason why he was selected as the commander of the Strangers was because he wanted to use him to balance the power of the Seven Gods' faith in the Chosen Corps.

This is not the first time that Hassan Molay has opposed Brandon River like this. As before, he just caught the pain point in Brandon's words and struck hard.

Brandon River's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and he looked at Lind in his seat worriedly. He knew very well that if Lind thought that all his loyalty fell to the faith of the Seven Gods, he might lose his position as commander. , so he tried his best to defend himself and loudly declared his loyalty to Linde.

However, what he didn't know was that Linde didn't listen to his explanation at the moment, and his mind had already flown to other places.
