Chapter 894: Tevram's Chaos

This complex political situation has been fully felt since the first day Gavin led the Chariot Corps.

Even though his identity was known to everyone, and the Chariot Corps set out from Usmer City, circled the Lesser Forest, and crossed the entire Giant Valley and the Kingdom of Sesk, they were still blocked outside the city of Tevram for a whole night.

Even Princess Yalusel personally confirmed Gavin's identity, but it was not useful until Gavin personally invited King Yasan to come and announced his identity in public. The Chariot Corps was then put into the dock warehouse area to load the goods, preparing to transfer the military supplies stored there to Usmer City in the Giant Valley.

Although King Yasan has reached an agreement with the Witch Council of the Kingdom of Leatherman, when necessary, he will use the spoils of the battle of Lake Asen to support the Furen coalition.

But that is a retreat, a forced choice.

If you can preserve your own military supplies, you should try your best to preserve them and keep the initiative firmly in your own hands.

Because once you accept external help, you will have to pay a price afterwards.

Just like the gift package of 100 million troops that Witch Leatherman gave Gavin before, it was the price of receiving aid before repayment, but the aid they received was more unique, not just the food worth millions, but the most important thing was the totem dream.

Legion Commander Aiden no longer hesitated and quickly explained: "A group of local Tevram people surrounded the entire dock area. They are protesting and obstructing us from loading the chariots. More and more people are gathering here."

Coming so fast!

Gavin knew that they would not be too smooth in Tevram, and would definitely be secretly obstructed by local forces, because if they did so, many citizens would mistakenly believe that the Furen coalition had completely abandoned the city, which would cause greater turmoil here, which would be more detrimental to the subsequent defense.

After all, only a very small number of people can escape from Tevram. Most people do not have this ability and have no way to do so, because their entire fortune is here.

It was just unexpected that the other party chose a somewhat unusual way of attack, and actually bewitched those ordinary Tevram citizens to obstruct the chariot corps.

This is a vicious plot. If it is not handled properly, not only will this batch of military supplies not be able to be transported smoothly, but even the glorious image that he has worked hard to build in the desperate East Region will be impacted and affected.

Gavin's heart was in turmoil, but his face was calm and he asked: "Did you have any armed conflict with them?"

"No." Aiden was young, but he was very mature in his work. "I ordered the soldiers to retreat into the chariots to avoid the intensification of conflicts, and then I notified the lord as soon as possible."

"You did a good job." Gavin nodded with satisfaction and said, "The loading work is suspended. You take the opportunity to rest and recuperate for a while. Next, war may break out at any time."

"Yes, sir." Aiden had no doubt about Gavin's order.

For them, it is an unsolvable problem, but for their lord, it is a small matter that can be easily solved.

Gavin turned to look at the Lord of Tevram and said, "Lord Parado, what's going on?"

Of course, he would not go to communicate with the citizens of Tevram in person. They didn't know who he was. Such things had to be solved from the top by the ruling class of Tevram.

"I have been accompanying the commander here to count and hand over military supplies since morning. I don't know what happened outside. Maybe it was spontaneously organized by citizens who don't know the situation." Lord Parado evaded all the charges.

Old fox, you are fooling me!

Gavin cursed in his heart.

His chariot corps is not an ordinary transport team, but a main battle corps that just came down from the battlefield and changed its equipment with the spoils of the Tukans. They exude a bloody aura. Ordinary people can't avoid them when they see them. How dare they easily stop and collide?

And ordinary people have no way to connect the movement of the Furen coalition forces with the transportation of military supplies. They don't have such a far-sighted vision.

Someone must have spread the news and organized the incident.

As the lord of Tevram City, it is impossible for Parado to completely get rid of the involvement.

Gavin also pretended to be stupid and said: "In this case, Lord Mayor, why don't you accompany me to take a look and help clarify and explain to those citizens.

Our transportation of materials has nothing to do with the next move of the Furen coalition. It is completely from a strategic and tactical perspective to help Tevram relieve pressure in disguise.

The Tukans are now focusing on Tevram City, and a big part of the reason is that these military supplies are also what they urgently need.

If there are no military supplies, the Tukans will not be so eager to attack Tevram, and you can hold on for a few more days. As long as the Furen coalition lands, whether in Tevram or in Usmer City.

Those Tukans will inevitably disperse their attention and use most of their strength to fight against the Furen coalition.

In this way, the crisis in Tevram City will naturally be resolved.

If these military supplies are stored here, the Tukans will be determined to take Tevram and increase their offensive here."

"The strategies and tactics that the commander talked about are too complicated for ordinary citizens. They can't see such profound things. They can only see the most superficial and superficial things. These military supplies are linked to the Furen coalition. Taking them away means that the Furen coalition will not land in Tevram. There will be chaos inside us, and Tevram will collapse.

Even if I am the mayor of Tevram, there is no way to easily convince them."

It is not a fluke that Parado can become the richest man in Tevram. He is using the affairs of those citizens to say what he wants.

In fact, he is one of the people who is most reluctant for Gavin to transport these military supplies.

In his eyes, this military supply is a bargaining chip.

A bargaining chip that makes the Furen coalition not give up Tevram easily and must assist here as soon as possible.

"Let's go out and see first." Gavin didn't argue too much and walked out first.

Parado and Yalusel followed closely. As soon as the three of them approached the dock area, they heard shouts.

"We oppose sending military supplies to Usmer City and abandoning Tevram. This is a cowardly act of inaction."

"We oppose retreating without a fight. We must defend Tevram and protect our homeland."

"These military supplies are to support our Kingdom of Sesk in its war against the Tukans. None of you can take them away."

"The Lord Mayor is here, the Lord Mayor is here, the Lord Mayor is here."

"Lord Mayor, you are the supreme ruler of Tevram. How can you sit back and watch them transport the military supplies that aided our Tevram? This is an unjust act. "The behavior of doing something."

"Lord Parado, we pay you so much tax every year and let you support so many mercenaries, not for you to do business, but for you to protect our city. You can't do nothing."

"Lord Parado, now it's time for you to give back to this city."

Countless citizens of Tevram poured out from all directions, surrounding the entire North Pier warehouse area. At the beginning, their slogans were very complicated, and the general meaning was to prevent the chariot corps led by Gavin from transporting military supplies away from Tevram.

The composition of the citizens of Tevram who marched in the streets was very complex, including men, women, old and young, but the main force was still those young people dressed relatively simply. No matter where they were, these passionate young people were the most easily bewitched and instigated, especially in the name of justice and fairness.

These citizens of Tevram obviously still maintained their rationality, and they were in awe of the giant animals and chariots of the chariot corps. This opposition only stayed in words and passively blocked by human walls, and did not try to attack the chariot corps by force.

After seeing Gavin and his three companions, they directly pointed their spearheads at Parado Ryan, the Lord of Tevram, and loudly rebuked him for his inaction and for watching the Chariot Corps transport such vital military supplies away.

Gavin became the target of public criticism before Parado, which was obviously beyond the expectations of Lord Parado. In the temperature of more than ten degrees below zero, his fat forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat. He took out a silk handkerchief to wipe it, and his eyes moved rapidly, obviously considering a countermeasure.

Gavin's huge mental power instantly enveloped several nearby blocks. While watching from the sidelines, he soon discovered many unusual things.

These Tevram citizens looked disorganized, but their speeches were obviously traceable.

Those who started to shout, huddled in the crowd stealthily, basically shouting a few words to arouse the emotions of the people around them, and then quietly drilled into the depths of the crowd and continued to stir up the emotions of others in another place.

In such a complicated situation, ordinary people had no way to distinguish the situation and were directly led by the nose.

Even if the guess was verified, Gavin had no good way to deal with it for a while. His opponent this time was very good at manipulating people's hearts. Once he gave the other party an opportunity, it was possible to intensify the conflict. He could only take one step at a time and see how the Lord of Tevram would deal with it.

"Quiet, quiet, quiet." Lord Parado twisted a ring on his hand, and a magical aura enveloped it. Although the sound did not become significantly higher, the transmission range was increased by hundreds of times, enough to cover most of the dock warehouse area.

The jeweled equipment on his body was not all decorations, but had magical effects.

"Quiet, everyone, quiet, Lord Parado is going to speak, let's see how he is going to answer?"

Rather than helping Parado to appease, those people with ulterior motives were in disguise to fan the flames. Everyone's eyes were all focused on Lord Parado.

If his answer cannot satisfy the citizens of Tevram, even if he is not eaten alive on the spot, it will be extremely detrimental to his subsequent rule.

Lord Parado is well aware of the risks involved. The more he wipes the sweat off his forehead, the more he wipes it. However, he cannot retreat from the situation at hand. He can only clear his throat and continue: "Citizens, I feel your feelings.

Because Tevram is also my home, my people, my property, and everything I have is here.

Like you, I don't want this city to suffer any losses.

If the enemy can be kept out, I will never let them have the opportunity to attack our city, or even let them get close to our city.

It's just that the enemy is too powerful, and its strength is far beyond our ability to fight. We must rely on those kind people to fight this powerful evil force with us.

The Furen coalition led by King Yasan will arrive in our Tevram within three days. This transportation of military supplies is entirely from a strategic perspective and does not mean abandoning our city.

As long as everyone works together to defend our city and port and keep Tukan's army out, the Furen coalition will land at our port and provide us with assistance. "

"Lies, all lies. The military supplies needed by the coalition have been transported from our Tevram. How could they land here again? "

"Since you are confident that you can defend Tevram, why do you still transport military supplies from here? This is a contradiction. "

"This is a sign of preparing to abandon Tevram. We will never allow this to happen. "

As soon as Parado finished speaking, he was met with a series of angry rebukes and rebuttals. This time, there was no need for guidance from someone. Ordinary people spoke one after another, and the voices were even louder than before. Parado's muddy explanation would not satisfy them at all.

"The military supplies were originally stored in Tevram because the coalition forces tried to land before the Tukans broke through the defense line of Lake Asen. The front line was pushed forward and the Tukans were blocked in Feishant or even Taimar. This place will belong to the rear of the coalition forces.

However, due to the weather, the Tukans crossed the lake in advance, and the time of arrival of the coalition forces in Cesk will not be distinguished. Tevram will become the front line of the war. If a large amount of military supplies are stored here, it will easily cause problems.

Therefore, we have this transfer.

I am not thoughtful enough to cause misunderstandings to all citizens. I apologize to you here, but I can guarantee that the coalition forces will definitely use Tevram as the first landing point. "

Gavin finally chose not to be a coward and took the initiative to take responsibility.

This kind of thing is a double-edged sword.

If it is not handled well, his reputation in Tevram will be greatly damaged, which will not only be extremely disadvantageous in the subsequent war against the Tukans, but will also be extremely disadvantageous for his future entry into Tevram and even the post-war reconstruction of Cesk.

On the contrary, if he solves the matter perfectly, he can extend his reputation from the Great Valley and the Kingdom of Leatherman to Tevram.

Although he has a development plan for the Great Valley, when necessary, he can use the convenience of the road power he controls to support the city of Usmer to replace Tevram.

However, as a large number of Xianglong people began to take action, he personally took a trip along the two trade routes and thought There has been another change.

The development of the Golden Road is not an accident, but has many reasons such as geographical environment and cultural environment.

The two roads are almost parallel, and the distance is almost the same, but relatively speaking, the Sesk Plain where the Golden Road is located is flatter, while the Giant Valley is too deep, with too many large and small jungles, and there are more hidden dangers than the Golden Road. Those ordinary caravans walking on it are prone to ambushes.

The biggest influence is the background culture. In the cities along the Golden Road, many ordinary people have certain business acumen and habits. As long as they are given a chance, they will definitely rush to the business road.

Gavin knows the difference between sailing against the current and sailing with the current.

It is unyielding to support the Giant Valley Business Road to replace the Golden Road. The human and material resources invested in the Golden Road are absolutely astronomical, and the effect may not be as good as expected.

Because those who rely on the Golden Road for their livelihood will not sit idly by, they will definitely fight back and push everything here to the opposite side of themselves.

If Gavin only wants to seek the development of mortal forces, he will definitely do so without hesitation, because it is a way to quickly prosper his own territory. Even if the expected effect is a little worse, it is enough to make the entire Giant Valley prosper in a short time.

But if he wants to accumulate wealth like the gods while accumulating his own faith foundation, it is obviously inappropriate to do so, which is equivalent to pushing a large part of potential believers away from his arms.

Those merchants and travelers who use the road frequently are the first to become A group of believers of the God of Road.

Making full use of the commercial advantages that the Kingdom of Sesk has already established and digging the potential value of the Golden Road to the extreme is the way to go with the flow.

If it were normal, if you want to reach out to the Kingdom of Sesk and the Golden Road, you would certainly encounter many obstacles.

It is not impossible to say that water cannot be poured in here, but the local forces are intertwined and extremely complicated.

There is the Shadow Master Guild, the largest church of the God of Thieves, Mask, hiding in the dark, trying to manipulate and control everything here.

The red-robed wizard of the Kingdom of Sel is also eyeing it covetously, always wanting to extend his tentacles into the Golden Road and turn it into his second money bag.

Countless pirates in the Falling Star Sea are eyeing this place covetously, wanting to control the Far East trade here and become the foundation for their dominance of the Falling Star Sea.

Not to mention the current ruling class of the Kingdom of Sesk, which is composed of countless businessmen. In order to protect their own interests in Sesk, they will not easily let outsiders reach out.

Once they are forced into a corner, these local forces will unite to fight against foreign enemies together.

This is why the Gai Civilization knew that the Kingdom of Sesk would be the main battlefield in the future, but still chose to land in Usmer City instead of Tevram.

Because at that time, the pressure brought by the Tukans to this city was not great enough, and development here would be constrained everywhere, and countless energy would be dragged into internal strife, which would be better than being able to let go in the direction of the Giant Valley.
