Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 1: ·General Mobilization (Part 1)
A notice, posted next to the four gates of the capital of the Glory Kingdom, on the notice board in the square in front of the palace, and posted in every place in every country and every city for publicity and notice.
On the notice, a few short lines were written in common language and the local official language.
【It is planned to launch the final battle against the orcs on the occasion of the New Year, when heroes from all over the world, princes and lords of various countries, including human gods from various gods will participate in the battle. Now recruit all the warriors who are willing to participate in the battle and fight with us. All meals and lodging are included, equipment is provided, and rewards are generous. There are gods who are responsible for souls, as well as high pensions and perfect funeral affairs. 】
Beside a lot of announcements, there are people who are in charge of publicity. The statements of these propagandists are not just the content of the announcement, but a variety of things.
For example, some people advertised that "If you defeat the orcs, those who do great merits can become lords, and those who do minor merits can become officials. Even if you don’t have any merit, you can only help move things, at least you can get enough food and drink for the whole family. Years of wealth."
Some people advertised that "fighting is indeed killing people, but people are always going to die. It is worth risking one's life to fight for a glorious future for the family! People live a lifetime, and there is always something left for the family. This The martyrs of the second war will be taken care of by the Church of the Gods, and even if they die, they can guarantee the stability of their families for the rest of their lives!"
Some people advertised that "For so many years, the orcs have always attacked and we defended. Now it's finally our turn to attack them! What else should I think about? This time I defeated the orcs, so I don’t have to worry about the orcs coming to invade us again. Up!"
Some people promoted "What do we usually fear most? It's not that we are afraid of death, but that we are afraid of falling into the underworld and falling into **** after we die. Although we all believe in gods, who can say with confidence that we can go to the kingdom of God after we die? Now is the best opportunity. As long as you participate in this war, no matter whether you die on the battlefield or not, you will definitely be taken to the kingdom of God after death! So what else is there to hesitate? The problem will be solved at once. I’ll never meet again in this life!"
At the same time, there are countless bards in various taverns, squares, and streets to promote the cause, or praise the cause of the heroes who have resisted the orcs in the past, or boast of those who have gained wealth and status in the war with the orcs. The lucky ones, or accuse the orcs of invading and attacking humans again and again in the past.
The various churches of the human gods have also taken action. The priests walked among the believers and called on them to fight for the glory of the gods, for the glory of mankind, and for their own glory. Encourage them to pluck up the courage, make up their minds, and step on the battlefield with their heads high. And all the churches have made guarantees that in this battle, no matter the king or the chief priest, all the high-levels of human society will be put into the battle, and not even one will be huddled behind in safety.
Not only that, this time even the gods of mankind will join the war one by one, doing their utmost, at all costs, and leaving no way out. Either a complete victory or a complete defeat, humans do not accept the third result!
Various kinds of propaganda, reliable and unreliable, truthful and unreasonable, like information bombing of later generations, flooding all media and channels, even the "TV video program" of Void City , There are people who bought advertisements for a lot of money... If it weren’t for the "Sleeping God of War" who was in charge of the propaganda and found out in time, maybe they would really rent it out and make a big joke.
Because of this, Shuge was furious and cursed the people in the Propaganda Department. The most frightening thing is that he, as a voter, has the energy to never get tired. He can spin around day and night, scolding from morning to night and then from night to morning. There is no problem at all. After being scolded by him last time, even the brave guy with the bones and the courage would have to be heartbroken, and would never dare to commit it again in the future.
With such strong propaganda, the entire human society was quickly mobilized. No matter the south or the north, the east or the west, everyone is busy.
Brave or devout people have signed up to join the army. Among them, the strong are armed and receive military training, while those who are not strong are arranged to carry out military production, prepare weapons, consumables, and reserve food and grass.
The production of all territories is no longer freely circulated, but is distributed after research in order to produce the most efficiently and obtain the most benefits. Those residents living in remote areas were collectively moved back to the prosperous hinterland to engage in various production tasks. Those who originally held a lot of wealth donated their property and bought all kinds of things they needed.
The entire human society is gradually turning into a terrifying war machine.
Of course, there are exceptions. Areas where the gods they believe in determine neutrality are exceptions.
For example, Gals City.
Leon Igor stood on the terrace at the highest point of the castle mansion, watching the direction of the portal in the city.
Many humans and orcs are hurriedly passing through the portal. If it were not for guards to maintain order, I am afraid that the square where the portal is located has become a mess.
Kalyssa Riley, the nominal lord of Gals City, his wife, came behind him.
"Since the release of the General ******, more and more people have rushed to the Glory Kingdom." She said worriedly, "Should we just close the portal now? So as not to cause trouble... …"
"The time when my lord decided to close the portal is when the two sides formally declare war~IndoMTL.com~ Before that, no matter how much pressure, we will continue to maintain the operation of the portal." Leon replied, "Not to mention , This mess is nothing."
He smiled and said calmly: "Don't worry, I am here."
Kalisha hugged him from behind, put her head on his back, listening to his slow and steady heartbeat.
Gradually, she was relieved, who was originally full of worries.
"The Queen of Flame (Goddess of Love) just sent an envoy to tell me that the scale of this war will be very large. Both the human gods and the orc gods are ready to do their best. Both parties are madly drawing in. Allies, it is very likely that they will eventually develop into a war involving more than ten gods—a war that has never been seen in the history of this world."
"No matter how many gods participate in the war, this will be the case. There is nothing to worry about." Leon smiled and said, "In any case, I will protect you."
Kalyssa stopped talking, hugged him tightly, and closed her eyes.
Although the war is coming, she has no fear.
He is her hero. They all survived such a huge crisis back then. No matter what happens after that, there is nothing terrible!
Leon stared into the distance, smiling calmly on his face, but worrying in his heart.
(His Majesty Masked Void insists on neutrality, but if the two sides really kill their eyes, can we really continue to maintain a neutral position when we are desperate?)
He sighed deeply, hid all his worries in his heart, and silently figured out what needs to be dealt with for some time in the future.
The more dangerous and difficult you are, the more calm you must be. Your Majesty is a jellyfish and never cares what others think of him, but as the leader of the Gals and the chief priest of the Church of the Void Mask, he must let everyone see a calm and calm self, so as to stabilize the army!
