Longmen Memoirs

"Hmph, don't underestimate me, I'm very strong."

The boy struggled to hold up the flag. He still had to walk past Lily's house. He also had to show off to his companions that he had carried the flag. He would be treated like a hero.

His flag did not fall.

The hands of countless people supported the flag belonging to the Tower of Babel. Their corpses were piled up into a hill. The flag took root on the corpse. The boy was left here forever.

Remained at the age of ten.

He opened his eyes and looked at the gray sky in the industrial area. Hot tears flowed from his eyes. The tears cooled down, and his young face was covered in blood and gunpowder smoke.

Sakaz's long knife was broken in the corner. Old Sakaz held the broken sword and launched the final charge. He was howling and scolding.

He thought of the former Sakaz. They had thought that after the war, Sakaz would usher in peace and revival, but the final result failed them all.

People were like a surging tide. They held hands in front of the defense line composed of military police and mercenaries, and walked forward against the artillery fire and stray arrows.

Their steps are unwavering.

They are fearless.

They loudly sang the song in the language of Sakaz, which was said to have been written by His Highness himself.

It says: Arise, hungry and cold slave.

It says: Arise, you who suffer all over the world.

Full of blood has boiled, to fight for the truth

The old world is in ruins.

Don't say we have nothing.

We want to be the masters of the world

……

"Did you hear that, my lord?"

In the office of the municipal high-rise building, Su Enyang looked at the earl in front of him with a smile and asked.

"What do you hear, singing? Where does this come from..."

"No, it's the clarion call to charge into this decadent Kazdare."

Su Enyang held a black Rutland gun in his hand at some point.

"You...I see, you are from over there."

The count was stunned for a moment, and he quickly reacted.

Su Enyang did not deny it.

"Tower of Babel." He corrected: "Why don't you dare to say these three words? That's what you always call it over there, because Her Royal Highness Theresia is there, and you and Teresis have nothing to do with it. It’s crystal clear.”

"How long have you been planning, ah, I actually asked you to investigate the group of people in the industrial area. You are one of them, and I would make such a mistake." The count said regretfully.

"You are close to me, close to Mona...I am actually."

Maybe he is not a good politician, but he cannot deny that he is a good father.

Su Enyang shook his head.

"It's a mistake, but it's also an opportunity, Lord Earl." Su Enyang slowly put down the gun in his hand: "The key is to see how you choose. Now you can loudly call the guards to arrest me or even kill me, but you will also miss the last chance. Good opportunity.”

"You may not be able to capture this place yet, Josephine. You must know that the No. 11 Army and a dozen mercenaries are stationed here. They can suppress any riots that occur here at any time. Just you and the group of people you think are... Untouchables, you can’t take down the industrial area.”

The earl stared at Su Enyang's face.

He didn't call the guards.

Su Enyang's smile became more and more obvious.

"What do you want to know?"

"I... can cooperate with you, Your Highness, but you have to give me a reason to cooperate with you. You should know that the generals of the Eleventh Legion are His Highness Tresis. They control the army and can take it away at any time. Commander of the city and I’m just a councilman.”

"If I tell you, the No. 11 Army you are talking about is no longer there, including the general you have high hopes for and his reorganized Sakaz magician regiment and heavy infantry battalion."

Su Enyang said, looking at the count sitting behind the desk: "Your Highness has come in person. Our Highness, Theresia, has come in person, bringing her army and people who are willing to follow her."

"Theresia, what did you say!"

The earl was stunned, but Su Enyang seemed very satisfied with this [~

"We all know what Your Highness represents. She is willing to lead the army again. She has come to the industrial area. Do you think the No. 11 Army can stop His Highness? Do you think the No. 11 Army can stop His Highness's soldiers alone?"

Su Enyang's words paused for a moment.

He looked at the Count, opened his hand, and pressed his palm sharply on the desk.

"That's Theresa, our hero of Sarkaz, our... king!"

Maybe Su Enyang's words were too shocking, or maybe she was still unprepared for him and the current situation.

"Teresia..."

How could she, she shouldn't... come here in person at this time? Doesn't she know how dangerous it would be? Why did her staff not stop her and dare to put a monarch in danger?

"I'll correct you, Earl, it's His Highness." Su Enyang said seriously.

"Okay... Your Highness." The count changed his words: "But why should I trust you? How do I know that you are not deceiving me?"

"You don't have to believe me. In fact, someone has already captured the entrance and exit gate. Li Ting, you may not have heard of this name, but Garson should be familiar to you. He was once the largest mercenary under Tracys. The leader of the regiment, who had high hopes from Tresis, died at the hands of the man who was heading to the gate at this moment, and as far as I know, there were no fewer than ten people with the same name as him."

"I just told you the destined ending."

Su Enyang said slowly: "Think about it, Lord Earl, since you know that I am from the Tower of Babel, you should know what I have done. You control the entire transportation network of the industrial zone and a quarter of the factories. Over the years, how many things have I done for you and how many opponents have I dealt with? You have some concerns in your mind."

The earl's expression was a little relaxed.

"I know what you are thinking. You are lucky. If this is a scam, if we return without success, you should not have such luck." Su Enyang said: "Betting on both sides, hesitating, just You will miss a good opportunity and lose everything. I can't guarantee that you will get the same status and treatment as you do now after joining us, but I can guarantee that you will live longer than all the adults in the parliament. Just treat it as for Mona. , you should have made your decision early.”

"Meng Na, yes, Meng Na..." Su Enyang's words seemed to suddenly wake up the count. "Can you really guarantee Meng Na's safety?"

"I could swear."

"Sarkaz's oath is not trustworthy." The count sighed. She looked directly into Su Enyang's eyes, and after a long time she said: "But I can help you, Joseph..."

"Suenyan, Suenyan-Hoka Wolfmann."

"I can help you, Su Enyang, no matter what you want me to do, I don't need you to swear, but I want you to protect Meng Na. No matter what happens in the future, you must protect her. If you can agree, I can help you."

"I said you can live."

"I'm not that naive. I am one of the councilors of this city. I know exactly what I did. I personally signed my name on the order to arrest and execute Sakaz in the industrial zone. Mona will be dragged down by me. .”

"I think she prefers that you can live, even if you leave Kazdaele and remain anonymous, you can still be by her side."

"But my family doesn't allow me to do this, and my honor doesn't allow me to survive in secret. Meng Na should have a better future, instead of accompanying me in exile. I... am not a good lord, so I took over Not only did I fail to protect Mona’s mother, but I also brought shame to my family, but at least, I can still protect her.”

Su Enyang said nothing more.

"...I swear on my life."

The count looked at him and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very well, I think you came to me because you want to get the warrant for the transportation checkpoint and part of the keys to the control tower from me. I will give you the order to give you the opportunity to completely take down the city." The Count said , and suddenly seemed to remember something and asked: "You, no, you are asking the people here to die for you, inciting them to cause chaos here, and using their lives to create opportunities for you, Your Highness Theresia, If she were early..."

"I hope you can say it is an ideal." Su Enyang retorted: "We know what we are doing. In other words, my lord, you have stayed in the industrial area for too long. You should go out more and visit us." Take a look at Kazdale, and you will know why they did this. What they want is not the honor and reception you are looking forward to, they... we just want to survive, that's all."

"Maybe." The count whispered, listening to the vague singing in the distance, in the explosion and the smoke rising from this huge industrial area.

Get up, that's what they sang.

Rise up...Sarkaz.

Su Enyang left the office quietly, and the count looked at his back. He suddenly smiled. At least this young man was really outstanding, a little better than when he was young, but he never misjudged people.

He listened carefully and couldn't help but whisper and hum along.

too suddenly.

It’s been so many years, it’s been so many years, Your Highness, why are you suddenly determined to come back? You [/

Why are you coming back.

Why do you...

Tears unknowingly wet the count's eyes. In his blurred vision, he saw a young man named Sakaz who was listening to the heroic deeds and full of longing.

That white figure, the great hero of Kazdaele.

Time is gone forever.

I don't know if this is correct.

Chapter 11 I can stop anytime if I want

"I have never seen this kind of war..."

Hedley's fingers couldn't help trembling, and he tried hard to stabilize his mood. He thought that he was used to seeing battlefield scenes and people's life and death, and he could be indifferent to it. But now, he found that he was actually doing Less than.

The flag that stood firm in the smoke and ruins, the boy holding the flag, and the hill made of corpses. Hedley looked up and suddenly found that the mountain was so tall, so tall that He could only look up, he couldn't stop sighing, and he even forgot about the burnt cigarette in his hand.

The industrial area that he was accustomed to seemed to have undergone a huge change in an instant. This change caught Hedley off guard and confused him. The surrounding scenes, buildings, factories and gray streets were all fresh in his memory, but these Now when they were put together, they turned into a sword scene that felt strange to him.

Sakaz has never been so united for a certain thing, and Sakaz has never been crazy for something. This is not the Sakaz that Hedley knows, nor is it the industrial area that Hedley knows.

There are people shouting, noisy, crowded, the army is retreating, and a torrent is formed between people in the huge industrial zone. The torrent is sweeping through every street. The torrent is shouting and rushing. They are unstoppable. They are marching forward, but they are Not even decent weapons.

They were only filled with anger, blood that they thought had cooled down, and reason that was almost crazy, and they followed blindly.

For what reason it no longer matters.

Important people were pouring in, and they captured this place in such an incredible way. There was almost no possibility, there was almost no hope, but they did it.

a day later.

A makeshift militia and soldiers from the Tower of Babel are maintaining law and order. The city has experienced smoke, war, conflicts, sieges, and madness.

Bleeding all night.

Angry citizens and workers rushed into the homes of nobles and ordinary dignitaries. They vented their emotions crazily, killing, torturing, and even ravaging.

The handlers were too late to stop it, and in fact without their presence, the situation might have become even more cruel and horrific.

People's emotions can never be controlled at will. This is a double-edged sword that hurts others and inevitably hurts itself. The Tower of Babel had to issue new orders to appease the citizens and gradually set up temporary patrols to maintain the industrial zone. of security.

It was under such circumstances that Ines met Hedley again.

"You've found a good spot, Hedley."

Hedley raised his head and saw Ines' figure appearing at the door of the tavern.

She hadn't had time to repair herself, and her body was stained with blood. Her face looked slightly tired, but she was in good spirits.

"Ines...are you hurt?"

"I met a mercenary who wanted to retreat on the way, and he was put aside. The skin injury will not be a problem."

"You came here with the army. How is the situation outside now?"

"Most of the No. 11 Group Army stationed in the city has surrendered, and a small number are still resisting. The mercenaries who are unwilling to lay down their weapons are scattering. The Tower of Babel is preparing to clear these hidden dangers and remnants. Askaron and Scout have already We’re going to chase the people who escaped, it won’t take long.”

Ines said, she casually pulled up a chair and sat in front of Hedley in this tavern that had lost its owner.

Both fell silent.

The No.11 Group Army stationed in the city failed to achieve the effect they should have. The battle did break out as scheduled. The Babel soldiers who entered the city after seizing the gate had a head-on conflict with the No.11 Group Army, and both sides suffered losses. There were a lot of manpower. In fact, the first group was completely unprepared, but they were indeed as elite as rumored.

It only took them a short time to stabilize their position, and they launched a brutal tug-of-war in the city with the Babel troops pouring into the city.

Both sides were bleeding, and neither side retreated, but the soldiers in the Tower of Babel were fewer in number than the No. 11 Army. In order to carry out this secret mission, they had to travel long distances to the industrial area, and after arriving they had to experience cruelty. battle.

Everyone's nerves were tense because of this, even though the court leavers lurking in the city and some citizens who volunteered to join them got the weapons and equipment transported into the city in advance and successfully seized the most important inner gate, causing chaos in the city. The chaos caused the No. 11 Army to lose the opportunity.

But they were not defeated and damaged, they were still able to fight and still had a chance to take this place back, even if it meant destroying it.

But Theresa's appearance changed everything.

Ines could never forget that scene. She didn't know how to describe it. She poured herself a glass of wine and took a sip, but her mood did not fade much.

The atmosphere seemed a little depressing.
