A Core Ship From The Start

Chapter 625 - 625 464 The Future_1

?Chapter 625: Chapter 464: The Future_1 Chapter 625: Chapter 464: The Future_1 One question had been bothering General Kriolleiv.

What would the future hold for Herman?

And now, he saw a partial answer to that question.

He saw how the Fourth Legion managed to take over Ros City…well, from a military perspective, this attack didn’t have any particular highlight. In fact, to this veteran general, the fighting was even somewhat sluggish, far from ideal.

However, that wasn’t the point; the point was… he saw a battlefield unlike any he remembered.

After capturing Ros City, the Fourth Legion didn’t pillage and plunder. Instead, they immediately deployed soldiers to maintain order in the city and prohibited any looting or seizure activities—this was a new experience for Kriolleiv and his men because they always viewed these actions as part of war. Soldiers need to vent their fear of death and the stress brought by the war, so this behavior was tacitly allowed to some extent.

However, the Fourth Legion was distinctly different—they forbade such actions. They took charge of patrolling the city and maintaining public peace. At first, the residents of Ros City were worried about this new regime. But, when they realized these soldiers weren’t a threat, they gradually relaxed.

But it didn’t just stop there.

Soon after taking over Ros City, the Fourth Legion opened special courts, announcing to the citizens that the city had been liberated from the hands of Congress and returned under the Emperor’s control. The henchmen of the Congress would be put on trial. Then, those nobles and officials in Ros City, who used to oppress the civilians under the authority of the Congress, were imprisoned, arrested, put on public trials, and then executed.

Their wealth was seized by the Fourth Legion, of which food and some daily necessities would be distributed to the poor. Houses and lands would either be returned to their original owners or temporarily used by the Fourth Legion.

Afterward, the Fourth Legion would send people to explain to the citizens of Ros why they were fighting—of course, the central theme was that Chancellor Stisseth and the Congress had controlled the emperor and taken over the country. Therefore, the Fourth Legion aimed to restore orthodoxy by defeating the Congress and returning power to the emperor…

“Why are they doing all this?”

Watching the man making speeches to the civilians from afar, Laures frowned at this, while Duanmu Huai simply shrugged.

“It’s simple because we hope to gain the support of the people. Soldiers are humans too, coming from these civilians. Only by letting them know what they’re fighting for can they fight without doubts.”

Having said that, Duanmu Huai quietly glanced at Kriolleiv.

“And not be like a certain old man, not even knowing what he wants to do.”
