To Four Thousand Years Later
v3 Chapter 120: i want it all
Consolidate the remarks provided by Shapur, and what Baal and Hassan said. Charles finally figured out the whole picture of the matter. Mari was regarded as an outlier by the High Priests due to his parentage and rapid promotion. After Baal hinted at them. They immediately chose to rebel.
A rebellion that raised the banner of vengeance.
The double of Kawad VI was killed by them, and then they planted the charge of regicide on Mori, who had just led the army out of Tessiphon. Before he was victorious, the name of Mori the Kingslayer was spread throughout the country.
In this way, as the avengers of the Holy King and the powerful people second only to the Holy King, they have the status of controlling the power of the whole country.
The premise is... the real holy king will not come out to seize power with them at this time. It is also impossible to send the holy guard to assassinate the holy king, because the crown cannot be forged. When seeing the real Kavad VI, the holy guard will immediately understand who the real rebel is. And it is impossible for the private army they raise themselves to break into the top floor of the palace under the surveillance of the holy guards, and go deep into the basement to watch... What's more, it is uncertain whether they can beat those elite holy guards. The so-called barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes, they are all people of high position, power and status. Victory is now in sight. Naturally, he would not choose the path with the greatest risk.
There is only one way that is the safest and safest. That is to wait for the holy king and the holy guard to die and die of thirst in the basement. The high priests were never allowed to enter the basement of the holy king - even if the high priest broke in privately, it would be a death penalty for blasphemy. So they don't know what the layout is there, and they don't know if there is any food and water stored in it. Although I don't know what's inside, but a popular opinion among the high priests is that the basement is all the apostles that the Holy King has plundered and preserved for many years. There may be the palace treasure house of Sasanian Persia. Even if there is food and water, there will probably not be too much. As long as the entrance is sealed, and poisonous smoke is blown into it every once in a while, after a month or two, the inside may be completely dead.
And if the people and the saints request to elect a new saint king, they can also postpone it in the name of "not avenging the former king".
As long as Jinli is defeated a few months later, they can drag Kawad VI to death.
To accomplish this goal, they had to get Mari's gaze away from the Persians.
Generally speaking, it is impossible for Zhenli to turn around and rush to the border under the pressure of public opinion. His soldiers were also unwilling to fight with his own people... and such a statement would be tantamount to confirming that he would test his father's crimes, but Mori couldn't fight in, and they didn't dare to fight out. The soldiers who remained in the country were basically certain to be unable to defeat the elites brought out by Zhenli. If they want to stop supporting Mori, they must at least shake Mori's authority in the army. Therefore, the high priests want to let the Frankish army that can defeat the Goths take action, so that they can reduce Tang Mori's strength and authority. In this way, they can directly surrender the rebels, and if they fail to persuade them to surrender, they can also fight through. The Franks will also lose some young and middle-aged men because of this soup war. Let their control over the Goths be weaker or weaker, while curbing Falke's development speed. The overweight they persuaded Charles to make a move was what Shapur brought.
More than three hundred artisans and scholars who understand Roman, two elephants, some jewelry and ten years of Persian books. Those craftsmen and scholars are the gifts of these books... They can translate books for Charles, and they can also help Charles build his territory.
There is another meaning here-that is, when they serve Charles, some Persian culture will gradually infiltrate Frank and Goth. If only they got the medium ones! , It can also affect the views of the people at the bottom of Persia. When Frank fights against Persia in the future, they and their descendants can still come out to hold back or something. Charles nodded with a smile: "The plan is quite careful... But I think they still have a serious omission. This makes their plan impossible to succeed. No matter how he thinks, he also feels that this is a strict death plan." As long as King Solomon is willing to make a move, Persia can benefit—and they took away the Gothic territory, which in itself is an infringement on Solomon's interests and authority, and he will definitely make a move.
What the **** is... what went wrong?
"It's the human heart. They don't count the human heart.
Charles said calmly: "Morrie is much bigger than them.
That's the real man who can do great things. He would never care too much about his reputation. Those high priests made a preconceived mistake. They have all been promoted from ordinary priests level by level, and they are very concerned about their image in the eyes of the people and other priests. Those who have the right to become high priests basically want to become holy kings. But it's different. He is not a priest at all, and he has no scruples in this regard.
Because no matter how he pleases others, Morrie, who was born in the military class, will never be able to become the new king supported by most people. Even if he really becomes the holy king, there will always be someone who will give him help. "From the very beginning, Mori and other high priests were promoted differently. What made him the high priest and supported him to become the new king was Kawad VI...as long as this foundation does not shake the opinions of the high priests, it will not affect him in any way. And he has already carried the title of regicide and patricide on his body, even if he declares it again, those who should not believe it will still not believe it." Charles explained slowly: "That is to say.
Lihui, go straight back to Persia? ! "
Shapur couldn't help but exclaimed.
He suddenly felt creepy.
After Morrie was excommunicated, he was nothing more than a soldier. A lower class... dare to rebel against the priest?
This subversion of common sense made him feel nauseous and nauseated, followed by a cold sweat. This made it impossible for any scholars or soldiers to usurp the throne as they would not have any popular support for whatever reason. It's utterly evil, chaotic, and overwhelming. The superiority of the Persians lies in the fact that they are not the private property of the world, but the people of Ahura, who are free in soul and spirit. What the Holy King possesses is only the power of proxy.
Although in the eyes of the Romans, this sense of superiority is ridiculous. But this is indeed after the Persians absorbed many cultures. It can also maintain all the foundations of its own culture as the subject.
If the Holy King lacks the ability and is licentious and tyrannical, other high priests will naturally start to manage their own image and gain the support of the people and other priests. Then try to win the throne of the new king-such a seizure has been repeated six or seven times in history. Each time means a change of dynasty...but Persia is always Persia.
But now, Murray is trying to subvert the foundation of Persia's founding
At first Shaxier felt ridiculous. But when he thought about it carefully, he realized that it was very possible that he couldn't help trembling.
"But you don't have to worry.
"Leave Morrie alone. A scourge indeed. I'll kill him before he gets Persia - but after I get the Gothic throne. Then I'll face the invader Charles," said calmly. , without any hesitation, declared to Shapur that he would inherit the Gothic throne. Before that, let the Persians grind his strength. They want to make Charles and Maury lose both, so let Let them have a taste of their own conspiracy.
In... Shapur. Are you interested in following me?
Charles' voice was like thunder, with a wonderful holy echo, rumbling in Shapur's ears: "Those three hundred people are not enough. You can take back the elephants and jewels, but you who know so many secrets, I must keep "So, you'll be working with Haysan, what do you think? "
"...: With great pleasure, Your Majesty!
Shaxier was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses, almost stammering in an excited reply. Of course... there was only one thing Charles didn't tell him. After both Persia and Mori suffered losses, he wouldn't just beat Mori.
