Give Me the Name of God

In an era of limited information, some geographically remote places have almost zero transparency. Southwest is a typical example.

Manda liked this era very much, and she also liked the southwest very much. It was like a magician's camera obscura, with too much room for manipulation.

Bucken's understanding of the southwest war situation came from the battle reports and letters of Larne Pigou, Winsela and Roman Wilkins. When all the letters were under Manda's control, Bucken was blinded. eyes becomes very easy.

In more than a month, Manda sent more than a dozen battle reports to Buckon through the Styx Island. From the beginning of the desperate fight, to the fatigue of the division veterans, to the testing of each other's contacts, and then to the To counterattack, the content of the battle report mainly revolves around the battle under Blackwater City, but some other information is also revealed in each battle report, information about Seven Star Mountain and Roman Wilkins.

For example, in the third battle report, Larne and Roman Wilkins have already established contact, and the other party has started a fierce battle with Qixing Mountain.

Although it was only a short sentence, Bucken took it very seriously. He asked Larn to mention the battle situation at Qixing Mountain in every battle report.

In the seventh battle report, Wilkins has captured Zuoyu and Left Wing mountains. Amado excitedly reported the victory to Backen, but Backen was not satisfied with the progress. He asked Rahn to urge Wilkins to speed up the battle.

In the twelfth battle report, Larn and Winsela got in touch, and the other party was attacking Touxing Mountain. Bucken was very dissatisfied with this. He thought Winsela's movements were too slow.

In the seventeenth battle report, Winsera and Wilkins jointly captured Touxing Mountain and Chest Star Mountain, and Bucken finally showed a smile on his face:

"This looks like a war. Wilkins' quality did not disappoint me. I told them to continue the offensive and wipe out the rebels in Qixing Mountain within a month."

Amado fed back the news to Larn Pigu truthfully. The real Larn Pigu could not receive the news. He still did not have the courage to open the Styx Island. All the messages were intercepted by Manda.

"What does it mean that I didn't disappoint him?" Manda was very dissatisfied with Bucken's reply. "What about the sacred land and the sacred messenger that were agreed upon? Why didn't I see the canonization document?"

Obtaining the identity of the sacred land and the sacred messenger is the main purpose of Manda's efforts to deal with Bucken.

Chuitt rubbed his bloodshot eyes. He had had a very hard time in the past month. The war that took place in Qixing Mountain did not exist at all. Manda just asked Che Erdan to command a few military exercises. All wars Both the process and the outcome were fabricated by Truitt and Manda.

This also made Chuitt a little worried. Can this war on parchment be deceived by Bucken?

"What we sent to Bucken was Larne's one-sided story. If we want to truly gain his trust, I'm afraid we need other supporting evidence."

"It makes sense," Manda nodded, "Sent a letter to Bucken in the tone of Winsela and Wilkins respectively. Winsela only reported the results of the battle, while Wilkins asked for the reward tactfully. "

Truitt found that this job was really not easy to do. It felt like writing a drama. He had to grasp the rhythm of the story and the characteristics of the characters.

"My lord, are these two letters to be sent to Buckon via the Styx Islands?"

"Of course not. Letters sent through the same channel will inevitably arouse suspicion," Manda shook her head and said, "Ask Jenkins to send someone to deliver the letter. He must choose a reliable person and tell him not to rush off and be prepared to be questioned. Prepare."

Chuitt reminded: "It will take at least a month and a half to get back and forth from the royal capital."

"I'm not in a hurry," Manda smiled, "We still have a lot to do."

That night, Manda personally wrote an outline of the story and handed it over to Verloc, who was in charge of collecting taxes. Verloc led his men to change into the robes of God's Punisher, and while collecting taxes, he spread the story to passing merchants. .

The merchants could see the troops participating in the "exercise", hear the war drums and horns in the valley, and see the wounded soldiers and corpses carried out from the valley. Although this was all a cover-up done by Cherdan, the merchants They have no ability to distinguish between true and false. After paying the tax cautiously, they will leave Qixing Mountain immediately and wait until they are doing business to tell others what they saw and heard.

Manda is very aware of the characteristics of rumors, which change every time they change hands. Therefore, he only wrote the outline of the story, and the specific plot was left to the communicator to improve.

In the Southwest, the rumor goes like this:

"Have you heard? Roman Wilkins is about to capture Seven Star Mountain. As long as he can defeat Krechi Monchik, the Archbishop will consecrate him as a Holy Messenger, the only Holy Messenger in the entire Romulu Kingdom. , Gray Fish Town will also become the sacred place of Romulu Country."

When the rumors spread to the entire southern region, the version became like this:

"Have you heard? Roman Wilkins captured the Seven Stars Mountain and trapped Craig Monchik in Blackwater City. The Pope has issued an order to canonize him as a holy messenger and declare the town of Gray Fish to be holy. place."

When we arrived in the royal capital, the version became like this:

"The Lord of Divine Punishment appeared in Gray Fish Town, where the Holy Light of the Lord shone and became a sacred place. The Lord of Divine Punishment personally announced that Roman Wilkins was the Holy Messenger, and he led the Holy Army to capture him alive. He killed Craig Monchik and burned him and all his heretics on the stake, which my friend saw with his own eyes!"

Before hearing the rumors, Bucken had received letters from Winsela and Wilkins. Winsela's letter had nothing new, and Bucken recognized Adelino's handwriting and had no doubts about the letter.

But Wilkins vomited a lot of bitterness in the letter, which made Bucken a little dissatisfied.

"He said that his military morale was a little weak. Because he did not have a suitable identity, he was unable to gain the support of the soldiers." Bucken sneered and said to Amado, "Let General Pigou remind Wilkins, the Lord can see I can also see his achievements. Before the Qixing Mountain is completely captured, let him concentrate on fighting and stop thinking. Don't send any more messengers in the future, just give the letters to General Pigu."

Amado said: "Sir, General Pigu's troops have suffered heavy losses, and I'm afraid they won't be able to continue their attack on Blackwater City."

"I don't expect him to capture Blackwater City," Bucken said impatiently. "It's enough for him to hold off Almen and Monchik. After the Seven Stars Mountain is captured, Winsela will naturally send support."

…

After receiving Amado's reply, Manda slammed the letterbox to the ground, gritted her teeth and said, "Bucken wants to default on the bill!"

Chuwitt said: "Perhaps he is dissatisfied with our record, so we will simply say in the next battle report that Wilkins has completely captured Qixing Mountain."

Manda shook his head and said: "You can't write it like that. If Qixing Mountain is completely captured, Roman Wilkins will be of little use, just like all the hares are dead and the hunting dogs have to be killed. This is the same reason. "

Truitt understood what Manda meant, but he couldn't think of a way to make Bucken fulfill his promise.

After thinking hard all night, Manda finally came up with a countermeasure. He asked Chuitt to write a battle report overnight and stuff it on the Styx Island.

At dawn the next day, Amado received the battle report and hurriedly reported to Bucken.

Bucken was furious after hearing the news: "Who dares to attack Gray Fish Town? Who gave him the courage! That is the Lord's sacred place!"

Amado whispered: "Sir, we have not issued the canonization document yet."

Due to physical reasons, I can only post one chapter today, and I beg my readers for your forgiveness.
