Chapter 139 Start (Part 2)
Chapter 139: Beginning (Part 2)
Fang Xin likes the sun, especially the sun rising in the early morning. The layers of warm and powerful sunshine enters the body and mind, making people feel comfortable in their body and mind.
Fang Xin rarely recalls the days on Earth, because the main world is also full of green and fresh air. Sometimes, he even has the illusion that he has always been the natives here.
After passing through a river, the river flowed quietly into the village, and then rushed past it was Fayer Castle.
When we got to the front, we saw a large number of people practicing, including twenty cavalry, all of which were infantry. The cavalry followed the two of them and the one who led the infantry was Cronshaw.
Fang Xin ran up and leaned into the cavalry team, while Etger and Bard nodded and smiled, but did not speak. Everyone noticed the training infantry.
Cronshaw was under a flag, commanding the infantry to practice. He hadn't seen him for twenty days. He seemed to have lost weight again, and the edges on his face were as windy and tough as a knife carving.
When he saw Fang Xin, the corners of his mouth moved slightly. What was he thinking?
Thinking that even if I work so hard, I will only get the title of a knight, but Fang Xin in front of me will at least get the title of hereditary lord and can officially join the ranks of hereditary nobles from now on?
But this expression disappeared in a blink of an eye. He began to give orders loudly and command the army. He strided with his head high, his voice was extremely loud, and the armor on his body sounded with his footsteps.
The soldier obeyed his orders and practiced back and forth. Although he was a little unskilled and his weapons were uneven, he had finally completed the team and knew who his superior was.
The cavalry were wearing leather armor and pointed helmets, and they were a natural supervisor.
"His Excellency Daniel, what do you think of our team?"
"It's very good, you can fight." Fang Xin replied: "You are such a commanding genius."
This compliment made Etger smile. He became more and more commanding. He said with a smile: "Okay, you must have not had a good rest when you come back. The exercise will be until noon. Let's go back to the castle first!"
Fang Xin did not eat breakfast, so he was not pretentious. He nodded directly and the group went towards the city gate, got inside, and turned over and dismounted.
When we arrived at the hall, a servant brought his face wash. Fang Xin wiped it and felt much more comfortable. Someone sent him breakfast—wine, bread, cheese, and a piece of jerky.
This was pretty good. Fang Xin raised a glass, filled the wine, and the smile on his lips widened, saying, "Is there any news now?"
When he left, he ordered Hadak, and Etge obtained the right to dispatch temporary thieves and assassins through Hadak, which could spy on intelligence and pay attention to the development of the situation.
"Pussyburg has indeed received the order and will not go to war. He has shrunk into the castle. There are two hundred people in the castle, with enough food to eat for five months. If there are no special weapons, then even if all four hundred people are exhausted, they will not be able to capture the city." Bard thought for a while and said.
"It's understandable, after all, Viscount Senkada's strategy is to concentrate troops and defeat Baron Jason in one fell swoop. I saw the main force concentrating in the rear." Fang Xin nodded, took a sip of wine, and said.
"Oh, how many Barons are there?"
"There are about one hundred cavalrymen, and it is difficult to blatantly support from the principality. Therefore, the total force is about one thousand five hundred, while Viscount Senkada's force is about two thousand, but it is a regular army, much stronger than mercenaries. In this way, the decisive battle between the two sides will not last too long."
"Isn't this at a disadvantage? If the main force fails, it will be meaningless even if we win." Bud couldn't help but shout.
"Yes, that's right, but we just need to be good at doing ourselves. Even if the main force fails, our occupation of two castles will be reflected in front of everyone. I believe the Great Guild will see it." Etger said calmly.
Fang Xin looked at him and laughed again. With his performance, he naturally had a chance. Moreover, perhaps aristocrats would recruit them as son-in-laws. Even if they were choosing within the aristocrats, they hoped to choose better. This is also human nature.
However, there is no need to say more about this. Fang Xin ate the breakfast voraciously, then slowly drank the remaining half glass of wine, and asked leisurely: "Is there any news?"
"Oh, there is another thing about indulgences, which happened in the city of Kaidore, the kingdom of Keldi, and it actually came here." Etger said casually: "My newspaper has also reprinted the news."
He was originally the editor-in-chief. If it were in the past, it might have been a hot topic, but now he no longer cared about it. After all, this was a matter from afar.
But Fang Xin was shocked when he heard this, and did not ask any more questions. After chatting for a few words, he took out the poison gas cylinder and said, "This kind of poison gas can be released at one time. I believe that even if the castle is large and has strong dispersion, it will cause most people to flow through tears and noses, and they will have difficulty breathing and weak all over. That is the time to attack."
"Ah, is it true?" The two of them suddenly had their eyes glowing, and they took out the box, and couldn't let go. Fang Xin couldn't help but warn: "Don't move around. If you two fall into the room, if we can't escape within half a minute, we may be poisoned and died of death."
"Ah!" After hearing this, the two of them were even more happy, although their hands became more cautious.
"When will the troops be sent?"
"Since the main force is going to fight to the decisive battle, let's send troops tomorrow!" Etger said: "If we can capture Fort Psych very quickly, then we may also restrain some of the troops of Viscount Senkada!"
"Okay, then that's the decision. Ah, I'm going to rest, please come back!" Fang Xin finished drinking and saw that the matter had been completed, he said without hesitation and drove them out.
The rooms in the castle are relatively humid and dark, and the layout inside is of course far less than that of the villas in the city. The rooms are located on the west side of the castle, with no windows on three sides, only a small window and the west side. It may be a little sunny at dusk. Now, you even have to light a candle to read.
Fang Xin sat up and asked Hadak: "How is the specific information?"
Hadak was not surprised, and carefully took out a pamphlet that was the size of a palm, and then prayed silently. After a moment, the pamphlet became bigger and turned into a book: "Sir, the specific information is here."
"Oh!" Fang Xin looked at him, lit up the candle, and began to read it.
June 23, 1716, New Calendar
Kingdom of Keldi. City of Kaidore
The main character, Cliff Reading, the first-class priest of the God of Light, took advantage of the great theology debate every year to post thirty-one articles he wrote on the billboard.
Fang Xin turned his attention to the following terms
"...... The coins fell into the bottom of the money counter and the soul instantly escaped from purgatory and ascends to heaven. Indulgences can not only forewarn the sins committed by the parties in the past, present, and future, but also for the souls of the dead from purgatory and ascend to heaven... What a humble and arrogant thing this is, this is the great sin of man usurping God's authority... Those who are convinced that they are saved by purchasing indulgences will therefore depart from God's way, and those traffickers will be eternally punished!"
After reading this article, Fang Xin browsed. This man spoke so fiercely.
"...Whoever has the right to forgive, only God of Light, who has the right to obtain forgiveness, only those who believe in God and walk the way of God, and this can be justified and enter the kingdom of God..."
"... As the heir of the church, the Pope can give punishment and forgiveness based on his own authority on earth, but how can he have the right to exempt people from sins for the belonging of the soul and the eternal residence of the kingdom of God? This is the right that belongs to God alone!"
"......I exchange money for redemption. Where does that pious faith place the blood and tears of the righteous, and the sacrifice of the sages? This is undoubtedly a model of ignorance and evil..."
"God said with his own words that the righteous will be born by faith, and this is the way of God, and we will maintain this to obtain redemption and eternal life!"
Fang Xin read and slowly smiled.
The core of Fang Xin’s plan is the dispute over God’s authority!
The contradiction is very sharp whether it is justified by faith or to exchange money for eternal life in the truth of the way.
If God of Light admits that money can be exchanged for eternal life in the truth of the way, then the day when God of Light collapses and falls is not far away, but if he admits that justification is made by faith, the civil war and purge caused by the devout believers will be extremely fierce and cruel.
The most important thing is that God of Light said in person that the righteous will be reborn by faith. This is actually the contract between God and man. If God of Light wants to violate it, he must pay a price - perhaps it will also lead to the division and loss of divinity.
Therefore, the best choice for God of Light is silence. On this issue, no matter how powerful God of Light has, he is as helpless as ordinary people.
After this article was published, no one in the seminary dared to debate this issue with him. However, this article was published in newspapers that day, and quickly spread across the country, and even spread rapidly to the mainland. Now, many radical clergy and believers have cheered and supported.
The general trend has been completed and no one can reverse it. Below is the civil war in the Light God's camp. Moreover, not only that, if it develops to a certain extent, secular regimes will also join. This is a total war and reshuffle on the whole continent - Fang Xin put down the newspaper and felt calm in his heart.
The church of Light, which has 300,000 clergy, fell apart as it was written by the people of the mainland.
