Chapter 344 Confrontation of Public Opinion
Saint Laurent City, the City Lord's Mansion.

This is the safest place next to the royal palace. After Vega captured Saint Laurent, he used it as a combat headquarters. As for the palace that is easier to defend, it's not that he doesn't want to be in charge, but that at this time of big trouble, Don't dare to do that.

Occupy the palace as a courtier.

Even with Shia around, this would definitely be a treasonable thing, so in order to maintain harmony, Vega ordered from the very beginning that no one except Shia and her guards were allowed to step into the palace without being summoned.

It's just that Shia disappeared before this order was executed.

Fortunately, this order.

No matter how fierce the rumors spread, no one dared to step into the palace to confirm whether Xi Ya was in the palace or not.

Da da da--

When Veigar was thinking about countermeasures, hurried footsteps came from outside the door.

knock knock knock.

There was a knock on the door, and after Vega's consent, Mennuo walked in sweating profusely.

"My lord, you are finally back. If you don't come back, I will, I will..."

Mennuo subconsciously said this sentence, but found that the second half of the sentence couldn't be rounded up, because the real second half of the sentence in his heart was, if I don't come back, I will run away.

In the face of panic, he was indeed timid.

The first half of the month went smoothly. Menno arranged for the navy to follow the rhythm crazily. The entire Saint Laurent was aggressive and was bound to drive the Kingdom Army out of the dynasty's land. This made Menno admire Vega even more, and he could think of such a way to control his mind.

But just when he lamented that Veigar was indeed a devil who played with people's hearts.

The situation got out of control in the next half month, and there seemed to be a navy army similar to him fighting against him in the city.

And the other party seems to be very aware of how the navy operates.

So Menno suffered from Waterloo, and several of his subordinates were killed by angry civilians. In the end, he had to use a lot of money to appease everyone's emotions.

But this is a drop in the bucket after all.

At the end of the month, reinforcements from the Royal Army attacked Saint Laurent.

Due to the complete fortifications of Saint Laurent, the 20 troops did not get any benefits. After all, the United Kingdom did not have the determination to take a city of Saint Laurent with the loss of 7 to 8 people.

That's right, if the losses were not counted, Yves Saint Laurent would have already collapsed.

It is a pity that the United Kingdom does not have the courage of a strong man to sever his wrists, so he chose to surround him on all sides and harass him frequently, intending to use psychological warfare and resource warfare to make Saint Laurent self-defeating.

Inner focus and outer sleepiness.

Under such circumstances, Vega, who is the combat commander, and Shia, who is the spiritual pillar, have not shown up until now. It is conceivable how much it has dealt a blow to soldiers and civilians.

If Vega hadn't appeared yet.

Then it is very likely that the United Kingdom has not yet attacked, and it will be self-defeating.

"Don't say hypocritical words."

Vega raised his hand to stop Mennuo from expressing his anxious gesture for a long time, and then said: "Judging from the current situation in the city, your navy doesn't seem to have any effect. I need an explanation."

"The general is wronged."

Mennuo quickly knelt down and explained: "It's not that I'm not good at doing things. There is an unknown force that seems to know the way our navy operates. They imitate our way of operating and spread rumors like crazy. ……Plus……"

"You want to say that it's true that I'm not here?"

Vega sneered: "Natural selection, survival of the fittest. In the final analysis, it's not that the imitators are too strong, but that the pioneers' lack of progress has ruined their own advantages. I don't need a machine that only knows how to execute orders. I need You go and think."

Veigar turned his back on Menno.

He said in an angry and indisputable tone: "If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. To deal with ordinary civilians, of course, it is more than enough to buy some of the three religions, but since the enemy is also in the same industry, then these are not enough."

"Excuse me, General, what should we do?"

Vega's eyes showed a meaningful look: "The three religions and nine streams are useless, you can find some sages and saints who have great prestige and influence in Saint Laurent City, and let them stand up and speak out. The words of these people are better than ordinary people. People talk a thousand words."

"If one sage is not enough, find a few more."

Veigar smiled mockingly: "The herd effect is not just talk. If a head sheep makes a sound, there must be countless followers, and if tens of hundreds of head sheep make a sound, even a deer can be a horse."

Men Nuo's eyes lit up, even he would unconditionally believe the words of respected people, let alone those civilians.

But thinking of this, he frowned again: "Excuse me, general, what if these highly respected people disagree? After all, it is almost impossible for these people to be bribed."

"Violence is an eternal theme."

"Violence is not enough, and their relatives will be detained and forced to submit."

"No relatives and no reason? Ruin his life's hard work and tarnish his reputation."

"In life, there is no one who has no desires or desires."

"..."

Veigar listed them one by one, and Menno's forehead was in cold sweat when he heard it. Sure enough, Veigar and a good person would never be able to match each other.

"But the number of sages and saints is limited after all."

Menno still said worriedly: "In total, there are only a dozen people who are highly respected in Saint Laurent."

"Not enough sages?"

Weijia chuckled: "Then create a god. You can let the three religions and nine streams you have mastered to publicize the deeds of any person, even if these deeds are false, if there are too many people who say it, it will become true, so a statue A new god is born."

"It's more than that."

Vega continued to say: "Those great sages who are enough to influence a city need you to buy them, but don't ignore or underestimate those who are influential only in one street or an alley. will be your weapon."

Keep an eye on Menno.

Vega said in an extremely serious tone: "Men Nuo, you need to know that words are always sharper than any knife. I let you take responsibility for this invisible blade. I have the best expectations of you."

"The next official will live up to the general's expectations."

Menno retreated with an excited expression, and was pointed out by Vega. Now he can't wait to fight fiercely with the enemy's navy, and let the other party know what is your uncle or your uncle.

After Menno left.

Wei Jia sat back on the chair again. This kind of gameplay was very handy for him. In his previous life, he spent a lot of money on products endorsed by celebrities several times, and he also believed in the wrong remarks of some bloggers and anchors.

Let all the "big V" here stand up and lead the rhythm, it is still in this era of undeveloped people's wisdom.

Just thinking about it, Veigar couldn't help showing a smile: "Hey, hey——"

And as long as public opinion returns to his side again.

Then Veigar can be sure that the people behind the scenes will definitely jump over the wall in a hurry, revealing Mennuo's trick of using the army to play people's hearts, as well as the news and evidence of his and Shia's disappearance, so as to arouse public resentment.
