"Ah."
With low laughter, Mavey finished reading the heresy trial issued by Archbishop Henry, threw it on the table, and said coldly: "He actually put the blame for the economic imbalance of the Romanov Kingdom on our heads, and also cursed us. They are heretics who are trying to rebel, and they even issued a reward order for the two of us..."
Katerina smiled: "Father, your head is worth millions of rubles, enough for an ordinary family to live a life without worries."
"Is my life only worth a million rubles?" Ma Wei couldn't laugh or cry: "It's not as high as the reward offered by the Popon royal family back then."
One million rubles, converted into gold pounds in the Kingdom of Windsor, is only 100,000 gold pounds. However, when he served on the privateer ship, the bounty on Mavey's head reached a terrifying 150,000 gold pounds...
This is the converted price. The bounty offered to Mavey by the Popon royal family is 300,000 florin gold coins, but the florin gold coins depreciate too fast. Now 1 Windsor gold pound can be exchanged for 2 florin gold coins. Basically Belongs to twice the price.
Compared with the generosity of the Poppon royal family, the million-ruble reward offered by Archbishop Henry seems a bit petty. The total wealth currently owned by the Church of Truth alone exceeds one million rubles. As the founder of the church, Mawei...
How can it be measured in millions of rubles?
What's even more exaggerated is that the reward price offered by Archbishop Henry to Katerina is only 500,000 rubles, which is equivalent to the entire wealth of an upper class person, but Katerina is the Grand Duke of Mosk!
The value of one title alone is far more than 500,000 rubles!
So Ma Wei came to a conclusion:
Archbishop Henry didn't expect anyone to assassinate Mavey and Katerina because of the reward. He offered a low-price reward simply to disgust them.
Psychological warfare is also a type of tactic. If Mavie and Katerina are angry because the bounty amount is too low, they will fall into Archbishop Henry's trap.
"I think it's time to make the abdication edict public." Katerina said: "Archbishop Henry wants to shake our military morale, and we have ways to counter him."
"Well, let's make the abdication edict public and let the world see who is the heretic who is causing harm to the country and the people!"
Late that night, various newspapers received letters from the Kremlin one after another. In the letters, there was a rubbing copy of the abdication decree. Even the king's seal at the end of the decree was dried into a zinc plate with dots and placed in the letter. .
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
When the editors-in-chief saw the edict of abdication, their eyes suddenly lit up like a cat seeing a mouse. They drew up the format overnight and asked the typesetters to print the first draft. After confirming that it was correct... large-scale printing began.
The next morning, newspapers publishing the abdication edict were delivered to the streets and alleys, in Mosk, Tula, Tverskaya...the abdication edict written by Paul I himself and denounced the Wisdom Cult was printed as quickly as possible. The release and sale caused an uproar.
At noon, the royal capital Petersburg.
winter!
Archbishop Henry slammed the newspaper in his hand on the table, with veins popping on his forehead, and roared: "Why did Paul I's abdication edict fall into Katerina's hands?! Where is the person responsible for taking care of the king?!"
The angry Baoxiao almost overturned the roof of the Winter Palace. The monks in black were trembling and did not dare to answer.
Before Paul I committed suicide, he had been locked in a room with tight security around him. There were informants from the Wisdom Religion everywhere. How could the abdication edict be spread quietly?
"Archbishop..." Basile asked tentatively: "Could this edict be forged by Katerina?"
"The edict is indeed the handwriting of Paul I. I am very familiar with it." Archbishop Henry stared at the photo in the newspaper for a long time and gradually calmed down: "The king is still in our hands. As long as he comes forward, any rumors will be self-evident. , don’t confiscate newspapers from people’s hands, this will only make us feel guilty.”
"yes!"
"Have all our monks returned to Petersburg?"
Basil quickly replied: "Everyone who survived should be here."
"What are the casualties?"
"The monks who joined the secret police suffered heavy casualties, and few came back alive. The monks responsible for establishing churches in various places did not suffer much loss. There are still about 3,000 people."
"That's enough." Archbishop Henry's sinister gaze swept over everyone in the study: "Tell Duke Ivanovich and the others to send troops to Mosk tomorrow morning, July 7th!"
"As you command!"
....................................................
July 7, Mosk.
Amid the sound of the whistle, the train stopped at the Mosk platform. This train started from Ulan-Ude and drove west along the Trans-Siberian Railway. It crossed Siberia and stopped in various major towns, full of passengers.
The door opened, and a group of talking and laughing figures in priest's robes stepped off the train. Everyone had the joy of victory on their faces. Station staff and residents passing by all looked at them in awe.
"Grim! Grim! When did you capture Uginsk? We captured the City Hall at 5 a.m.!"
“Can a small place like Tulum compare to Uginsk?”
"Just say it if you are slower than us, there is nothing to be embarrassed about! You are also a slow person anyway!"
When they saw the carriage parked outside the station door with the flag of truth erected, they instantly fell silent. Christopher, who was waiting by the carriage, put his palms on his chest, nodded and said, "Everyone, now is not the time to celebrate victory. Please Get in the car, Father Mawei has been waiting for you for a long time."
Saint Basil's Cathedral.
The priests and monks who had returned from various cities walked into the preaching hall and immediately saw the smiling figure standing on the pulpit. Although it was only more than half a month apart, they had the illusion of being in another world.
So many things have happened in the past half month. Everyone has escaped from the gate of hell. They who shouldered the mission have also completed their mission.
"Grim, Goncharov, Broca..." Mavey read out their names one by one, and said in a soft voice: "Welcome home."
Goncharov's eyes flashed with tears, and he choked up. There were countless things he wanted to say, but it was obviously not the time now, so he could only keep them in his heart for the time being.
"Have you seen the tombstones erected on Red Square?" Ma Wei said: "Many names have been engraved on the tombstones, but more of them are unnamed tombstones. One of them is one I left for myself."
"We have seen the dawn of victory and successfully taken the first step, but the war is not over yet. Just this morning, 600,000 troops, carrying the most advanced weapons, marched from Petersburg to Mosk. They took a The train has crossed the Neva River, and tomorrow morning they will arrive at Tver, the northern gateway to Mosk..."
"Comrades, they want to take away the fruits of our hard-won victory.... Can we agree?"
"cannot!"
"Knock them down!"
There were excited shouts from the audience.
"The opponent we encounter this time will be the Kingdom's army commanded by Archbishop Henry. Although they are well-equipped and have a large number of people, I believe that an army without faith cannot defeat us!"
Ma Wei made a fist in his hand, beat the pulpit hard, and said sternly: "They are the ones who should be afraid! The warriors of truth are invincible!"
"Truth is supreme!" the monks shouted in unison.
At this moment, Ma Wei, who was giving a speech, saw many figures appearing at the door of the church. They were not people who came looking for help, but...
Alberts, Arhan et al.
Also arriving with them was the God of Secrets - Geer.
"The church has prepared a magic ring for you to fight against the Wisdom Cult. Go find the letter to get it. Tonight, follow me to Tver, follow in the footsteps of the goddess, and defend Mosk!"
"Praise the goddess!"
After the meeting ended, Mawei winked at Salina, who understood the situation and immediately walked out of the preaching hall, leading Alberts and others outside the door to the living room.
When Alberts opened the door to the living room, Mavey, who was sitting in front of the fireplace, had a smile on his face:
"Everyone, have you...made your choice?"
