On the sea of thousands of clouds, Chen Yi is sitting on the throne.
His human part rejoices.
Chen Yi looked at Thunder Castle in Marton River City.
Laurent was baptized in the chapel of the castle by Luke.
Luke announced loudly to everyone present: Lauren has brought the gospel of the Lord.
All this sacredness was witnessed by everyone at the foot of the hillside.
Duke Androff was writing a letter of surrender in the castle at that time. When he learned the news from his close associates, Lauren's story had already been spread like crazy.
In any case, the defenders in the castle were boosted in morale by the appearance of the miracle, and regained their unyielding fighting spirit from their faith.
God knows what this group of people will encounter tomorrow.
When the defenders leave the city for a bloody battle, King Camillian's reinforcements will arrive in time and defeat the Fordusans in the city under attack from both inside and outside.
Loren will usher in his great victory, and then the Kingdom of Fordusan will be severely weakened by this, and it will no longer be able to withstand the offensive of the Kingdom of Camillian.
Chen Yi looked at the defenders. Under the order of Duke Andev, the kitchen took out the remaining food and water sources, allowing the soldiers to have a long-awaited meal in preparation for the final battle in the city of Marton River.
The god had already seen the result of this battle and nodded slightly. He could ignore the story that happened next on the earth for the time being.
Before that, Chen Yi looked at Luo Lun's wife.
The woman who was about to give birth lay weakly on the bed, her head covered with sweat, and the child in her belly kicked and beat her, which caused her great pain.
God looked at the child in her belly, which was about to be born.
But his mother would lose her life after giving birth to him.
Chen Yi didn't want to see such a result, and felt pity for the human part.
Why would fate be so harsh on a mother?
With this in mind, Chen Yi switched on the lights of the divine bell tower to send blessings to Luo Lun's wife.
As the light fell, Lauren's wife gradually calmed down, and she felt a warmth.
Then, God closed his eyes slightly.
Even with his eyes closed, He knows what is happening on the earth.
It's just that the passage of time has accelerated in his eyes.
On the second day after he ascended the throne, King Luolun of the Leden people won an unprecedented victory.
Duke Andeff did not know whether it was out of guilt or shake of faith. He wrote a strongly worded letter, asking King Camillian to exempt Marton River City from taxes for the first three years, and to improve trade. Give preferential treatment to this group of Leiden people from the north.
After the victory, Laurent also had this intention, but now, the joy of surviving the disaster filled his heart.
Laurent led the people from Mern and the Leden people to the church in the city. The Fordusans were afraid of going to hell and did not dare to step into it during the massacre and looting.
He asked Blessed Luke to organize a baptism so that the willing converts of the Redonians would become true believers.
Having witnessed the miraculous light on the hillside and heard the words of God, the Leyton people collectively converted to the true religion under the leadership of the new king.
The next day, in the warm delivery room, Luo Lun's originally frail wife gave birth to a healthy eldest son.
Mother and son are safe.
Blessed Luke said to Laurent, Here is the miracle, here is the love of the Lord.
Luo Lun was convinced and gave his child a name in the true religion.
Ellen Terte Loren.
Among them, Terte is his mother's name, and Lauren is his father's name. The naming method of Layton people is often mother's name plus father's name, plus their own name.
And the child's own name: Allen.
It means inspired by God.
Lauren believed that he had received a revelation from God two days ago, and the child was born today. This name was not only a beautiful meaning for the child, but also served as a precious memory for him.
The Verdusan people were greatly weakened by this battle, and Laurent established a firm foothold in the southern land. He handed over the repair and construction of the city of Marton River to the Blessed Luke, with Duke Andev providing guidance.
During the Old Kingdom, the church was still subordinate to the Deschanel Empire, whose vast territories and majestic cities were often coveted by all countries.
The church, which inherits recorded texts and history, naturally possesses many cultural classics and urban technologies.
The church advocates reason, which is exactly the opposite of the image of ignorance and stubbornness in the eyes of some pagans.
Theologically, it is believed that the essence of people's understanding and interpretation of the world is the process of understanding gods and approaching the Lord.
Because the world was created by gods, in the process of understanding and interpreting the world, people can feel the presence of gods and get closer to the Lord step by step.
On top of theology, the church doubles down on reason and requires clergy to think about scriptures based on reason and suppress their emotions, instead of being immersed in stories like most people.
On Papal Island, the young priest not only studied theology, but also dabbled in other theories that explain the world based on reason.
The theories that explain the world based on reason include Deschanel's logic, architecture, mathematics, etc.
While still on Pope Island, Luke studied various doctrines with the idea of studying theology.
This is a very vague idea, and it can hardly be used as a reason for him to persist in learning various doctrines.
After experiencing the ordeal in Marton River City, Luke found what he really wanted in his heart.
In the candlelight of the church, Luke recalled seeing the massacre and advising him in every possible way, but was unable to do anything.
This blessed person who is good at thinking went from being powerless at the beginning to hating others for not listening to his words, and finally became rational. Based on rational thinking, he thought about how to avoid such tragedies as much as possible.
Luke sat in a church pew and quickly discovered the crux of the matter.
"The Fudusan people massacred and plundered the people here with swords. So, in this case, someone must use swords and shields to stop the slaughtering swords."
The Blessed One realized that someone had to guard the defenseless civilians and provide protection.
"These people must be virtuous. In the recognition of others, knights are often virtuous. When they are loyal to their lords, they will swear a knight's oath. One of the oaths requires them to protect civilians as a matter of course. kind of honor."jj?y.??br>
"But that's not enough. Between protecting civilians and being loyal to the lord, knights often choose the latter. From this, knights will have reasons to kill civilians."
The young priest suddenly stood up from the bench. He thought of something and felt suddenly excited.
"There must, must, be a kind of knight. They are not loyal to the lord, but loyal to their faith. They cannot do evil, because there are no secular rules that can provide them with a reason to do evil. Instead, theology punishes evil and promotes evil. The universal truth of goodness.
They should regard protecting the poor, the innocent, and those who do good as their responsibility, as an obligation, not as an honor.
Each of them must go through layers of selection, worship the gods, and protect the world with their own swords and shields. They will be knights and monks. They must arm the monks and have the knights chant scriptures. "
A prototype emerged in Luke's mind, and he had a premonition that this would be a far-reaching idea that would benefit future generations.
And many years later, Luke's vision,
Known by others as the Military Monks or the Knights of the Church.
.......
Blessed Luke believed,
The church should not only provide spiritual guidance to true believers, but also provide secular protection to true believers.
Luke went to Deschanel. In public speeches at the town hall, the emperor repeatedly emphasized that the church protects the spiritual world, and as a true believer emperor, he and many true believer monarchs provide protection for the secular world.
Originally Luke didn't care about such an argument, but now, Luke had to start thinking about whether monarchs who were motivated by secular interests could provide better services to the secular world than monks who were motivated by divine knowledge. shelter.
No one can stop the thunder from thundering, just as no one can stop the secularization of the Blessed One at this time.
Mass, daily classes, prayers, sacraments... and other things that lead people to do good are all connected with the church.
In contrast, noble lords often make peace with each other with war, rule, etc. They are not without good sides, but they often lead people to bad consequences.
Why... why is the church not as capable as the secular lords in mastering the force, mastering weapons, and letting moral principles lead the world until they reach the universal path of perfection?
On a stormy night, Luke stood up suddenly, and the thoughts in his mind became firm.
The monks who spread the knowledge of God and lead people to the kingdom of heaven must also raise their swords to lend a helping hand and provide shelter to people in distress.
.............................
.............................
As the Fordusans struggled to organize their forces, Laurent's kingdom expanded, taking over fortress or city after fort, spreading his footprints into inch after inch of new land.
Just like the heroic words he made when he first landed in the north, he built his own kingdom on the southern land.
As his rule continued, Laurent encountered difficulties that he had never expected before.
Conquests are always going on in the world, and there is no shortage of great deeds by conquerors in history. Those leaders brought their cutting edge to new lands.
The enemies were defeated by them, and the conquerors were proud of themselves, but their edges would eventually be worn away by the land and then merged into it.
There is no complete integration and no complete conquest.
And Laurent realized very early that the Redonians could not fully adapt to everything in the southern land.
The kingdom's pace of expansion gradually stopped, and the new king had to face this serious problem head-on.
The old Leyton Kingdom was a slave country and was incompatible with the southern land where feudal lords were scattered.
Lauren noticed this very early on, not long after he set foot on this land.
Even if the Redon people converted to the true religion, it was still difficult for them to adapt to this land in terms of governance.
True believers are not allowed to enslave others. This is an edict issued by an unknown pope and is prevalent in the southern land.
Lauren had to start reforming his country. He did not want to touch the tradition, because this tradition had supported his hopes. At the same time, he also eagerly hoped that his rule in the new kingdom could be consolidated.
"Mean, what do you think I should do?" Lauren asked his servant one day.
"Your Majesty, you are a Laytonian. You are not unaware of the stubbornness of the Laytonians. You have a sacred tradition..."
"Yes, I know, but... how can we do it without touching the stubbornness of the Leden people..." Laurent asked.
He didn't continue, but Mien understood what he meant.
The former monk Mien fell into thinking. After a while, he thought of something and said: "You know, Your Majesty... lords often own farms."
"Of course I know."
"On farms, serfs are the most common. First of all, I have to say that they are free, including their souls. There is no serf who is not free and they are not enslaved."
Mien explained this according to his own memories.
Laurent understood what he meant. The new king knew that his servant had an intellect worth appreciating.
"But...the serfs had little property of their own."
As Mian spoke, he gestured with his hands:
"The fields are not theirs, but the lord's. The houses are not theirs, but also the lord's..."
Hearing this, Lauren couldn't understand what Mian wanted to express.
"You mean, serfs are like slaves, but they are not slaves?"
Mien nodded in confirmation.
It dawned on Loren, and he recalled the other southern lords in his mind.
The new king realized that the serfs had freedom, but they were full of imprisonment.
Serfs who want to cultivate land must pay taxes to the lord. Serfs who want houses must also pay taxes to the lord. Serfs must pay certain taxes to the lord for marriage, trade, etc.
Although serfs were free, their lives were full of taxes and redemption of rights.
"In other words, I can try to get the Leyton people to accept serfs, free the original Leyton slaves, and make them serfs."
Such thoughts came to Lauren's mind.
The southern land also moved from slavery to a feudal kingdom, and serfs, to a certain extent, were like the remnants of slavery.
It was impossible for the Redon people to completely let go of their traditions. Rather than doing so, Laurent hoped to improve on their traditions until they could adapt to the rule of the southern land.
To rule here, the Redonians must be close to the people from the south.
As the king thought about serfs, the idea of implementing the chivalry system also came to his mind.
Many days later, the Holy Day of the True Religion arrived.
After the grand celebration, the Garda warriors were summoned and gathered in the council hall of the kingdom.
Deer heads, wolf heads... and even the heads of some rare and ferocious beasts were framed on the walls of the hall.
Over the years, Laurent popularized the true Awen among the Redon people on a small scale, and as they began to live longer in the southern land, some Redon people learned the Camillian language.
Hundreds of Redonians faced Lauren and knelt on one knee. Yesterday they fasted, bathed and changed clothes according to the requirements of the true religion.
Luke held the consecrated water and stood beside Lauren.
Over these days, Blessed Luke has become Lauren's right-hand man. The promotion of clergy in many churches and monasteries in the kingdom has been handed over to the Pope of Rita Salen Island through Luke's hand.
Laurent's eyes fell on the Leydon people in the front. They had made great achievements in the battle, so they were in the front.
Mr. Masaphi was also among them.
Lauren raised his hand and wet it with the holy water. In the Old Kingdom, knights would not put their swords on people's shoulders.
The Garda warrior at the front looked up at the new king.
The new king raised his hand and patted the Garda warrior on the shoulder.
"In the face of a powerful enemy, there is nothing to fear."
Then Loren slapped the Garda warrior on the neck,
“Be courageous and loyal, love others and love the Lord.”
Then Laurent slapped the Garda warrior on the ear,
"It's better to be honest than to lie."
Finally, the new king smacked the Garda warrior on the cheek.
"I swear to protect people in danger."
"Today you are made a knight!"
