Crusade against the Pope

Chapter 79 Judgment Time
When the final moment of judgment arrives, the market is almost over.

In fact, not only the villages that signed the "contract", but also the surrounding villages that originally belonged to other tax farmers, also had many people coming to watch the fun.

After all, such lively gatherings were rare, and the fact that a tax farmer was about to lose his head was something they had never heard of in their entire lives.

For these oppressed people, beheading the tax farmers was like a festival. It was worth it for them to put down their work and walk several, dozens, or even twenty miles to see the excitement.

As the time approached, almost all the people participating in the trial had arrived.

A platform had already been set up in the open space in front of the high platform for drying threshing ground, and Ahmed, his eldest son, and some other soldiers were pushed up.

Some of those soldiers were Ahmed's private soldiers. When Ahmed bullied men and women in the past, they also committed murders.

As for the others, they were the soldiers who had followed Eric to massacre the town of Alhadi. These soldiers not only obeyed orders and participated in the massacre, but also robbed, raped, and took human lives in private.

After the prosecution by the families of the deceased and the investigation and evidence collection, it has been determined that these people will be sentenced to death.

Most of these people were extremely terrified and frightened, but they had nothing blocked in their mouths.

Only Ahmed kept twisting his body and resisting the escort from behind, with a cloth strip stuffed in his mouth to make him unable to speak.

Compared with others, Ahmed seemed to be particularly resistant to death and had unspeakable grievances.

Even his son, who was standing beside him, showed a rather generous and generous spirit of being ready to die.

Except for these two guys who refused to bow their heads, the soldiers on the side could not help but collapse like mud.

Let them raise their weapons and point them at the unarmed people. These guys are more excited than each other. But when the cycle of good and evil brings rewards, they will beg for mercy and want to survive at all costs.

Originally they still had some illusions. After all, they had been digging the soil for two whole months and thought they could live like this for the rest of their lives.

Even before they were pushed onto the stage, they all felt a little lucky, thinking that they were just accompanying the tax farmer and his son for a trip.

But when they saw some familiar faces in the audience and felt the unspoken pressure of silence, many people on the stage knew that something was wrong.

And when Simon's servants cordoned off an open space in front of the platform and let the victims' families walk to the front of the platform, many of them exposed their ugly behaviors and lost all their strength.

Garys presided over the trial personally. Although the charges and punishments of many people had already been determined, if they wanted to use the sinners as burnt offerings, more people would definitely need to participate.

In this world where it's either eat or be eaten, there has never been a scene like the current one that allows nearby farmers to vent the anger that has been pent up in their hearts for a long time.

He wanted everyone present to hear his words clearly and understand that the suffering of each other was not differentiated by language or race.

"Men, death, bloodshed, strife, sword, oppression, famine, hardship, and beatings - all these have come because of sinners. Because of them there was a flood on earth, and there will be more judgment after this."

"When evil people like Ahmed plunder your wealth, do they ever distinguish the difference between their words? They are like greedy demons, tirelessly searching for all wealth." "Know that everything that comes from the earth will return to the earth, and everything that comes from the water will return to the sea. All bribes and ill-gotten gains will be lost."

“The wealth of the unrighteous is like a stream that dries up, and like a thunderbolt during a rain that disappears.”

"The rich but unkind man, while he is in high spirits, suddenly perishes, for the wicked have no other fate!"

"What do you think?"

When Garys spoke of the sinner's end, countless people in the audience expressed their expectations.

"kill him!"

"Burn them!"

"Hang him!"

"Hang him!"

"Behead!"

The dam that blocked the flood collapsed, and when thousands of people were excited, the anger spread throughout the world.

As for Zaid, a witness standing by, when he looked at Garys on the stage stirring up the emotions of the people, he suddenly returned to the scene he saw in his dream.

There are those who command great armies, sweep away all that is in the world, and hunt down kings with sword and bow.

But is this person before us the savior Mahdi, or the antichrist Dajjal?

Is it that the order of the earth has already collapsed, so someone needs to step up and reshape it? Or is it that the sacred order of the earth is about to collapse because of this person's arrival? !

Thinking of Garys's doomsday prophecy, Zayd couldn't help but panic.

Could it be that, in a few decades, Baghdad will really be destroyed? And will the Palace of Wisdom also be engulfed in flames?

Even though Zayed, as a Shiite Muslim, did not recognize the false caliph in Baghdad, he was still shocked by the tragic future of tens of millions of people drowning in a sea of ​​blood.

If you want to know whether Gellis's prediction is correct, it should be enough to wait until next year.

After all, Gairis also made another prediction that the holy city of Jerusalem, which had been lost for 87 years, would soon return to the embrace of the Muslim world.

But is that really a good thing? Should we be thankful for it?
If it is proven that Gellis does have the ability to predict the future, doesn't that mean there really is a [Great Flood] brewing?

Doesn't it mean that after the Islamic world has cleansed itself of its past shame, recaptured the holy city, and returned to its glorious era, it will not be long before it faces the true "end of the world"?
The glorious Islamic Golden Law will be shattered! No one will be king in this borderland of the Arabian Peninsula!
　Second update. I will continue to work on the rest of the article to see how much I can come up with today.
