Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 157 Seizing Power

"Captain! People are coming from outside the city!" Just as Damon was leaning against the city wall and was about to fall asleep, a soldier brought by him ran up to him and said.

"Ah, what?" Damon was awakened, but he was still a little confused, but he quickly remembered the purpose of tonight, and he woke up instantly with a sharp mind, and ran to the crenel and looked down.

After estimating the number, there must be hundreds of people, and seeing a cavalry in the front row raising a banner and waving it, Damon knew that these were the people he was waiting for, so he immediately said to the soldiers around him:

"Open the city gate!"

"But the captain!" The soldier was stunned. Before Damon came, he didn't tell them why he took a few of them out to stand guard so abnormally tonight. Hearing Damon's order at this time, it was naturally a little hard to understand. After all Those people don't look like good stubble.

"Don't ask too many questions! Hurry up and open the city gate. Haven't you been the little flower of Cuiweiju for a long time? Afterwards, your benefits will be indispensable!" Damon slapped the back of the soldier's head with his head, but it hit the helmet instead The shock made him hurt, and Damon became even more agitated immediately. He glared fiercely, and the soldier shrank his neck and ran to the gatehouse to open the city gate.

With the sound of the iron chains of the mechanism rubbing against each other, the heavy door slowly opened. First the outer iron gate was raised, and then the thick wooden door inside was opened.

The silent black troops walked into the city through the doorway. Aldridge, the leader, directly saw the leader arranged by Ronan who had been waiting for a long time, and then followed the leader to the pre-prepared venue provided by the Fengdao Gang.

Recently, under Ronan's funding and instructions, the God of War Temple often helps the public to see a doctor for free, and also distributes food to the poor within the specified time. In just a few days, it has already received a lot of praise from the masses. Overwhelming all other temples in the city, Ronan, who presided over everything, also gained a lot of prestige and the support of many people.

These are actually just the routine operations of the temples in the past, but since the gods disappeared, the incense of the temples has not been as good as before, and now most of the temples are barely able to maintain basic operations, let alone give benefits to believers .

The crowd is like this, as long as you give them benefits, they will support you. The nobles in this world have never paid attention to the power of the people, but Ronan who came across knows that water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. Power is very powerful, as long as it can be used reasonably, it can bring a lot of convenience and benefits to Ronan.

Ronan wants to seize power by force, so the most important thing is the stability of the territory after the seizure of power. Otherwise, let alone expanding to the outside world, just dealing with the mess in the territory will be exhausted. When he finishes dealing with it, he will miss the best opportunity for development Now, it will be much more troublesome to face other forces seizing power.

Another day passed, and the undercurrent that engulfed Fengming had already demonstrated its power. In one night, thirty-six powerful people in Fengming City died in their own homes. The staff were brought under control as soon as they went to work.

Damon sat on the seat that once belonged to his grandfather, rubbing the smooth armrest, all kinds of inexplicable emotions kept flowing in his heart.

"Damon, why are you sitting in the captain's seat!" The one who spoke was the former number one dog leg of the city guard captain, Karni, who had no noble status, but usually stood by the captain and ignored Damon. .

"No, Carney, this is my seat, it has belonged to our family since my grandfather!" Damon stood up excitedly.

"Are you crazy? Where's the captain?" Carney was a little puzzled, but Damon's weakness on weekdays made him a little inertial.

"Pay attention to the way you talk to me! You are just a commoner! How dare you talk to nobles like that!" Damon was very angry, he was not what he used to be, he stood up!

At this time, other team members and team leaders entered the conference hall one after another. According to the usual practice, except for those who are on duty at night, everyone else has to go to the conference hall for a morning meeting in the morning. This is also noticed at this time The quarrel between the two.

Carney's face also changed. Although Damon is very weak, he is still a nobleman. It's just that his daily habits make everyone talk to him less and less. But if Damon is really determined to sue the court, Carney is still out of luck.

"Sorry, Sir Damon, how about the captain?" Carney gritted his teeth and said after bowing.

"You will never see him again, and now I am the new captain!" Damon said to Carney with a sneer.

"What?" Carney's expression changed, not understanding what it meant.

"Don't you understand? He's already dead!"

As Damon's voice fell, there was an uproar in the conference hall, and the team members became confused, talking with each other at a loss.

"Quiet!!!" Damon yelled angrily.

Looking at the people who calmed down and looked at him, Damon said slowly:

"From today onwards, I will take over the position of captain, and the letter of appointment will come down soon, do you have any opinions?"

Looking at Damon who was completely different from usual, everyone bowed their heads and saluted to express that they had no opinion. Most of them didn't care. It didn't matter to them to change a captain, but usually some people didn't respect Damon very much. The faces of the people were very gloomy, and they were all worried about what would happen in the future.

Most of the other departments are similar to Damon's here. Occasionally, a few thorny soldiers will be honest after being killed by the soldiers sent by Ronan to maintain stability. As for those departments where no one chooses to obey Ronan, Ronan uses all staff Control it, kill those who resist on the spot, and arrange for someone to take over after he finishes his work. If it doesn't work, leave a small number of people to take over the work, and replace the rest.

As for Marcel and Eric, who died in their own home, with terrified faces but slightly smiling faces, no wounds on their bodies but no breathing, they were given the reason for being disrespectful to God by the priest Ashley after they were discovered. The bodies were burned and even the ashes were confiscated. The horrifying corpses of Marcel and Eric also made many people in the temple shiver, and put away a lot of careful thoughts.

At this time, there is also a good show on the earl's mansion. Ronan was wearing his set of composite plate armor, standing at the gate of the Earl's Mansion with an unconscious nightmare in one hand and a helmet in the other. Behind them stood a hundred heavily armed soldiers.

With a wave of Ronan's hand, some soldiers dispersed to block the other two exits of the Earl's Mansion, while Ronan led Meriuses and the remaining 60 soldiers towards the gate.

The four soldiers on duty at the gate were a little nervous when they saw the fully armed Ronan and the soldiers, and they were a little overwhelmed, because he was the second son of the Earl's Mansion, but it seemed that the visitor was not friendly.
