Among the young officers who participated in disguise as the Restoration Army, it was not only Joey Patton who was confused.
Most of the young officers focused their anticipation on Roger.
Everyone is eager to give them an affirmation for this historian who "stands straight and writes straight".
He even dared to write the queen's dark history, so he certainly wouldn't lie to them about this trivial matter, right?
So if he says this action is justice, it must be justice!
Roger was not perfunctory either, he was a person who liked to express his own opinions.
The confusion of these officers in front of him made him feel that he was needed.
They trusted the historian and respected his character and talent.
Although Roger knew that it was just a misunderstanding, he was only fearless because he didn't care about this official position at all.
But this would not prevent him from using this misunderstanding to cause a wave of opinions.
He first used questions to guide the officers to express their opinions, reminding them of the many benefits of pretending to be the Restoration Army, and that they had helped the people of the Seventeen Kingdoms a lot.
This takes their attention away from the negative, bloody, cruel things.
When the speeches of the officers faded away, Roger slowly spoke:
"Let me tell you the bad news first. Your actions and credits may not be made public until hundreds or thousands of years later."
"But I believe that the history books at that time will record this matter: this is the beginning of the real signs of integration within the Green Vines Empire, the key battle to eliminate the traces of the Seventeen Kingdoms, and the foundation ceremony for the new era of the human race."
"Some people are in the dark, but their hearts are bright. They have made great contributions to the establishment of a unified Ivy League Empire. When we drink and eat meat happily today, we should not forget their contributions."
The officers were disappointed at first.
It turned out that they thought too much, they were afraid of being scolded, but in fact, they didn't even have the chance to be criticized by the world.
However, Lord Dio is indeed super brave. This kind of unspoken rule is straightforward.
He has a strong character.
So what Roger said later was more convincing and more credible!
This is a little trick of "if you want to promote it, first you should suppress it".
Putting the other party down first, and then saying words of praise, the officers are naturally happy and excited:
We are the representatives of light!
We have made great contributions to the unification of the empire!
We are laying the foundation for a new era of the human race!
Although they don't quite understand the specific logic, Lord Dio said that their actions are in the future, so they must be the merits!
Because Lord Dio is too real!
Colonel Joey Barton Jr. was excited, and still had some doubts: "Lord Brando, is an operation behind enemy lines like ours a war?"
Roger nodded: "Of course, war is not just about seeing blood, nor is it fighting to the death. You can use various methods to conduct bloodless battles without casualties as it is also a part of war."
"This is called unrestricted warfare. With the development of more and more means of warfare, it is not always necessary to use direct violence to paralyze the enemy's country. Public opinion, economics, technology, natural climate, and other means may become the way to dismantle the enemy."
"You who pretended to be the Restoration Army didn't have a bloody fight, and you didn't stand firm and create miracles. Many people think that this is not a war."
"But in my opinion, you not only weakened the strength of the enemy but also saved hundreds of thousands of good men from the empire. This is the most successful war, and this is the most glorious victory!"
"As for the back of the victory, some ordinary people were implicated and became victims... But if the Restoration Army ignited the flames and launched a protracted bloody battle with the imperial army, how many ordinary people would be involved?"
Countless officers were horrified and silent.
Of course, they understand that in this age of limited productivity, long-term wars will lead to the desolation of the land, the ruin of the family...
Because that's what the Green Vines Kingdom once experienced!
In this way, simply and neatly resolving the hidden dangers of the Seventeen Nations and surviving more people is also a great good thing for the Seventeen Nations!
Just when they were lost in thought, Roger recited in an emotional tone:
"Prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer! Our majesty, the Queen, is a king who transcends the times."
"The desire of the remnants of the Seventeen Kingdoms is power, land, wealth, beauty, and the exploitation of the people to enjoy a luxurious life. Her Majesty the Queen, who may have all these easily, is still constantly exploring the mysteries of magic, and strives to build a stronger empire."
"What is she working for? Is she working for herself? She can easily get everything that others desire!"
"What she wants is to let more people feel the glory of the empire! Your new-style war, which is almost deadly, has successfully made the ignorant people of the Seventeen Nations feel the glory of the empire and the greatness of the queen."
"On the way to glory, there will always be bloody hands. Remember, killing is to protect life, but knights aren't killers!"
"Everyone, are you willing to carry forward the burden for this empire, even if it falls into darkness?"
Hundreds of officers stood up and responded enthusiastically, "Will for the Empire!"
Roger waved his fist and shouted, "Long live the empire!"
The young officers, lieutenant generals, and even the guards who were present were all rushing up and shouting together: "Long live the empire!"
"Thank you, Lord Brando... I understand, I don't need to be confused, we are doing the right thing. Your Majesty, she is so great!"
Little Joey Barton wiped the corner of her eyes quickly.
Her eyes became firm again.
Their eyes became firm again.
Undercover is also a war!
Killing is an act to protect life, but killing for business doesn't need to be filled with unnecesary deaths!
Their queen is a king beyond the times!
They would like to spread this glory throughout the multiverse!
Lord Dio is talented, and he speaks respectfully. They all like Lord Dio.
But they couldn't see it. Roger lowered his head, but a bit of confusion appeared in his eyes.
In essence, he is a bowl of poisonous soup, making these officers more fanatic.
The Queen of Eternal Night has justice and looks noble and detached, so the soldiers who fight for her will naturally be justice.
And with the belligerent character of the Queen of Eternal Night, if she is not careful, it will evolve into militarism...
After all, Roger is not a philosopher, nor is he a real historian, so what a profound meaning he can give to the actions of pretending to be the Restoration Army.
In essence, he is still the one who wrote a full-scale composition at the end of the video, numbed his senses with chicken soup, and tricked praise.
But he also felt that no matter how poisonous this bowl of chicken soup was, it should have a certain value.
At least this night, few people should be awakened by nightmares.
Ordinary people don't need to understand human nature and history completely to calculate the black and white.
They only need a clear conscience and logic and reason to keep fighting, and they can burst out infinite energy.
Even if the chicken soup is poisonous, they are willing to drink poison to quench their thirst and accept Roger's tricks.
This is what he should do as a historian.
This is the only thing he can do like a little video maker.
Just when Roger had a rare emotion in his life, Mrs. Mosconi suddenly walked up to him and kneeled on the ground:
"Lord Brando, how disrespectful I was to you before, I was superficial, please bear with me."
"Ah, ma'am, what do you mean? Oh no please stand up!"
Roger quickly helped her up.
This is the Queen of Evernight's most trusted maid, although she is quite opinionated. Why is she so polite all of a sudden?
This auntie, won't she go insane because I loafed around too much?
