A peasant woman, penniless and illiterate.
After a few words, Olan said that he couldn't think.
But there was no need for her now, so Olan asked people to take her down and dress her up.
The idea of recruiting "*** groups" and training them so that they can play a role in the next battle has been deeply fixed in my mind.
One day later, Oran entered the house at the tomb of the king of Mercia. Update without error@
This residence was also built on high ground, making it easier to stay high up. All building materials were transported from the nearest forests and stone quarries.
It's not so much a village as a fortress.
More than a dozen cemeteries of the late kings and protective measures make this place very strong.
In addition to the Third Army, militias or landless knights, businessmen, and church monks from other parts of England also came over.
Some of these people have the sentiment of saving the country, and some want to become famous or make a fortune through war.
Oran followed Ella to the largest group of houses made of wood and stone in the fortress, and met Bergred in a house that was old on the outside and newly renovated on the inside.
In addition to the smelly rough people, there are also several beautiful figures.
They are all female members of the royal family (mostly concubines of the king), and they also came here this time.
They dressed in men's clothing and worked as scribes. During the day, they helped the king copy letters, and at night they wrote romances with the king.
Bergred was also very uneasy about the future, so he simply indulged himself and played unscrupulously with his concubine at night...
Olan has no interest in women, but women are attracted to him.
At this time, those who appeared around the king were all warriors.
It was rare to see a nobleman who was much more handsome than the court poet, so naturally he had to take a second look.
"You are welcome to come and help. I will never forget this act of kindness. As long as we can defeat the Vikings, England will be divided equally between the three countries in the future!"
The "Land of the Ancestors" is about to be taken away, and the King of Mercia no longer has any airs at this moment.
Oran and King Ella sat opposite Bergred and Amon, and an old East Anglia nobleman, Donnie Cook, entered together with Oran and others.
He and the queen were not at odds with each other, and his son broke the law and was killed by the queen.
But the Vikings occupied the country, and all personal grievances at this time were trivial. He collected people and horses along the way and came here.
After the Mercian kings introduced each other, Oran asked, "Is the queen not here?"
"His Majesty is gathering the fleeing subjects, and he is expected to arrive with his escort knight Sigis in two days, so he should be able to make it in time."
After Downey finished speaking, Oran added, "May God protect you."
"Thank you." Danny smiled politely.
Oran came here just for the atonement scroll. Since the queen has always been famous for her piety, this is better.
After figuring out that Donnie's status was equivalent to the king's hand, Oran glanced at King Ella, who said that he had something big to discuss and wanted to clear out these women.
As the scent of perfume faded away, Oran slowly spoke, revealing a crazy proposal that would affect Britain.
"Your Majesty, I have a bold idea that I would like to discuss with you and Mr. Downey."
"Is it related to me too?" Danny asked.
"Tell me." Bergred nodded.
"There are more and more Vikings. After I went back to Durham, I heard every day that there was a battle on the coast somewhere, and knights on some manor were killed.

In autumn, the fields are no longer filled with golden and strong wheat, but corpses lying among them.
A large number of estates were left unharvested and were wantonly destroyed.
Everything is lacking now, the main roads are either occupied by our troops or taken away by the Vikings.
Order and morality are rapidly disintegrating.
Women sell their bodies for food.
For food, men starve their elderly elders to death.
Evil is spreading rapidly, and we need to find a way. "
After Oran finished speaking, the atmosphere became heavy and no one spoke, so he continued.
"I previously proposed the idea of a North Sea Crusade. Not to mention whether it would be successful or not, it would take more than half a year to spread the word to Rome and back from Rome. We should use our own methods to promote it. (This chapter Not finished yet!)
168.The biggest scam in the Middle Ages
I suggest that the three kings first issue a formal order to directly define the act of fighting against the Vikings as an act of rape. "
"Forcible invasion?"
"Yes, they are despicable strangers, devils, villains; on the contrary, we are the beloved of God, the warriors, the saints.
We don't need to wait for the Roman decree, but first define the name of the army on the island.
'Blessed by Christ, the British Crusaders came to the aid of the poor. _o_m
Anyone who joins the Crusaders will receive immediate atonement.
Nowadays, there are not many ways for sinful people except confession, donation, etc., but killing our enemies can justifiably receive the grace of Christ. Is there anything more cost-effective than this?
We take East Anglia, Mercia, Northumbria, and Kent,
The ecclesiastical powers of the four kingdoms were combined to form the 'Diocese of England', and we elected archbishops to help carry this out. "
"Why Kent? The Vikings dug their king's grave, and the royal ladies and nobles all turned to Alfred." Donnie asked.
"Since Ragnar can establish a 'false king,' then we can naturally establish a 'true king.' Let the news spread. We also have members of the Kent royal family. We, a group of righteous crusaders, want to help Kent restore the country. !
Most of the Kent area is now in our hands, but this place is too far away from us. It is surrounded by Wessex territory. In addition, we have to support the battle against the Vikings. Sooner or later, it will change hands again. It is better to do it as a favor and reputation. "
"Who should we establish?" Bergred asked.
"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter who you choose. It just wants to cause some trouble for Wessex. By doing this, we can win over the hearts of the Kent nobles to a large extent.
There are two factions in Wessex now, and we need to find ways to divide them more. I believe you have a better way. "
Oran glanced at the King of Mercia, and after seeing him nod, he did not extend the topic any longer, and the Atonement Scroll of Lama said, "In times of chaos, gods and heroes are needed to help.
The good deeds of the Lord Christ are infinite, and for hundreds of years, the saints who died as martyrs and whose bodies were enshrined have left a lot of kindness in the world. The one who controls all of this is the church, the king. Control, the church. "
Oran emphasized the last sentence and added, "When the coins fall into the box, the evil fire of hell will be eliminated on the day you pass away."
"What if people think they are not guilty?" Downey laughed, "You know, these thugs always beautify themselves."

"Then one of their fathers, grandfathers, and ancestors must have sinned and is still suffering in hell, right?
They can buy it for their children, and they can also buy good deeds in the next life. If they accumulate more, even if they cannot go to heaven after death, they can be reincarnated as a noble in the next life. The Scroll of Atonement is simply an incredibly great offer of good deeds. "
Oran cheered to himself.
This statement is outrageous and even ***!
But Olan has no blushing thoughts, he is just selling "dreams". If people can use a little money to deceive themselves into spiritual satisfaction, why not?
Calculating this way, mastering the Atonement Scroll is equivalent to printing money yourself, which is a very cost-effective business. However, a few people besides Olan want to lose face, so they continue to let Olan perform, anyway, as long as they do not bear a bad reputation.
"It seems that you all have no objections. Very good. The gods are already on our side. Next comes the heroes, the Knights of the Seven Kingdoms, various prestigious nicknames, but they are all regional reputations, such as East Anglia. There is the needle sword Sigis, Kent has the wind gun, Mercia is you..."
Oran compared Amon the Confessor and praised him twice, "Unparalleled in the Seven Kingdoms" and "Roland is alive".
This was very useful to him, and even the King of Mercia was lifted up. With Roland, wouldn't he be Charlemagne?
"We should create a British national hero."
"who?"
Everyone present was interested in this topic, but Olan's response was unexpected
"A descendant of King Arthur, a great woman who combines the seven virtues, Joan of Arc."
There are two kings here, and the hands of three kings have access to a lot of historical materials. King Arthur is still watery. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
168.The biggest scam in the Middle Ages
Yes, I know something.
This king, pieced together by various deeds, has no descendants.
Oran knew what they were thinking and continued, "King Arthur has descendants, in England, in Mercia, right here!"
Good guy, this boy from Oran, after finishing the Crusade, he got the Atonement Roll, and after finishing the Atonement, he got King Arthur's Blood Relatives.
What a stickman.
But Burgred admired Olan more and more. A subordinate who could do things like this must be very capable.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Oran, your previous proposals are good, but is there a problem with this matter? Are you going to create a woman to become a hero?"
"Yes, I want her to become a belief and symbol. After King Arthur, the second great British legend, surpassing the existence of the heroes and kings of the Seven Kingdoms."
"Is such a woman here with us? I want to meet her!"
All men like to conquer women, and everyone here except Olan also wants to see Joan of Arc right away.
The King of Mercia further asked, "Is it the family record of a local noble, or is it from the south?"
"We'll find out in another day. I'll make arrangements." Oran responded with a smile.
The amount of information in this meeting was too great, and what was thrown out previously was enough for several people to think about.
Thousands of people came to the vicinity of the Wang Tomb Cemetery. It was very lively and the living environment was very tense.
As a "deputy state-level" palace minister, the living place Oran was assigned was pretty good, with ventilated walls, wooden beds, and chairs. There was no need to smell the stench of livestock, and it was very close to a water point.
In terms of food, it is much better than ordinary knights.
In the evening, Joan of Arc came to her again after being ordered by Oran to freshen up.

Tai Tai asked the maid here to help her clean her. She boiled three large buckets of hot water to get all the dirt off her body.
But his appearance didn't improve much, he just became more energetic.
There were two rickety chairs in the empty room. Oran and she sat on one each, but Joan of Arc still didn't dare to sit down. How could she eat at the same table with Mr. Oran?
Even when Oran said she would eat sitting down, she thought about taking the food and eating it while standing.
"I am a commoner, and eating at the same table as you will affect your reputation."
"You are no longer. You remembered your origins wrongly, Joan of Arc. Your surname is 'Pandal.' @ESSENTIAL\/书馆*First update~~"
"Pandar?"
"This is the surname given to a concubine by King Arthur, recorded in the Northumbria's Journal of the Late King.
Your eighth generation ancestor was once the bodyguard of the late king. Your seventh generation ancestor came to Mercia and took root there.
Your ancestors have been brave for generations. When Charlemagne conquered the Franks, your great-grandfather Dagen Pendar served in the army, and finally died in the battle on the Imberia Peninsula with the Paladin Roland.
He is the hidden thirteenth knight who is not found in the history books, besides Charlemagne's twelve holy knights.
You have been different from ordinary people since you were a child. Many animals are close to you. Although you are illiterate, you are proficient in various teachings. You even learned foreign languages when a holy light from heaven blew over your head..."
Oran made up an extremely special background and asked Joan to write it down quickly so that she could face the nobles tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
"Your Excellency...I can't do it!"
"Do you want to save more children?"
"Thought."
"Then listen to me. If my method is successful, you will become a believer, can boost morale, win the war, and you can win tens of thousands of people at a time."
"But I don't understand anything, I'm just a humble wandering girl..."
"All men are created equal, you have to remember."
"No, the blood of nobles is noble."
***, Olan felt angry talking to this woman.
He coughed twice, and his harmless expression appeared again.
"look into my eyes."
bump!
Oran approached and pushed her against the wall.
Until now, Olan can't remember how many women he has used "Bi Dong" on. I have to say that this method is easy to use and makes people have to contact you head-on.
Another realization is, “Women are so easy to deceive.”
"You said... (This chapter is not finished yet!)
168.The biggest scam in the Middle Ages
I am a Hand of the King and you are a wandering girl, how are you different from me?"
"They are all different, Your Excellency!"
"Wrong, you and I just have different division of labor, and the difference between you and the other princesses in the royal court is that they were born in a palace with tiles, and you were born in a leaky hut."
People are never equal. Of course, Joan wouldn't dare to listen to Olan's nonsense that "no dog would believe".
But as long as you keep brainwashing you will be fine.
"I had a dream, God chose you, England chose you, let me be your guide and become a saint. First update @ "
"God?!"
"Listen, listen with your eyes closed, do you hear it! The Lord Christ said, Joan of Arc, you are the savior of England, you will succeed, you will make the North Sea peaceful..."
A great man who is only second to a king tells a woman that you are destined to be extraordinary.
People always hope that they are different. At this moment, Jeanne was nervous and excited.
Oran decided to be dedicated. In addition to being a great King's Hand, he was also a great actor.
Regardless of his identity, he hugged Joan of Arc and whispered in his ear that she had "the light of the right path", which almost blinded him...
He continued to tell Joan of Arc what to do tomorrow, threatening her with benefits, and his kindness to her, and finally made her succumb.
The woman was fooled, and the next step was to think about how to "crucify" her and push the drama to a climax.
In fact, it doesn't have to be her to create a hero, it can also be other women, but in this case, those women may not be as easy to control as Joan.
When Jeanne goes out, Oran calls Titan in.
"Your Excellency, are you looking for me?"
"Go, there are craftsmen, juggler groups, and blacksmiths here. Go and prepare some things for me. They will come in handy tomorrow. Remember, don't let anyone know that I want them."
"yes."
After achieving his goal, Olan continued to think about "harmful things". As his status improved, more and more people he wanted to get rid of. Maybe it was because he couldn't tolerate a little evil in his eyes?
right.
Lord of Britain.
