The Sunset Plain was obviously the spacious area in the center of the sand table. When Lin Tuo turned his eyes back, he realized that the war seemed to have been divided between victory and defeat.
The army approaching Kyoto collapsed, like a tide bursting a bank, flooding the mountains and plains. Behind them is the Xishu army mounted on war horses and armed with rifles and machetes.
When seeing the intense gunfire and explosion, Lin Tuo finally sighed slightly.
"They built guns after all."
When he entered the sand table and talked about science, he deliberately downplayed the content of military weapons.
Unfortunately.
With the evolution of society, weapons used in warfare have naturally developed in a highly similar environment.
Although I can't see the details.
However, based on the background of the times, Lin Tuo guessed that the firearms at this time may have got rid of their original appearance and can be classified as early rifles.
After the first industrial revolution, the 700-year-old country finally faced a challenge outside the royal family.
Governor Xizhou...
It sounds like it should be a character like a feudal official. It seems that it has been prepared for a long time. Perhaps it has been prepared for many years, otherwise it will not be able to defeat the Imperial Army.
If you think about conspiracy theories, perhaps, the death of the emperor is not natural.
"I'm afraid that Chi State will finally have to change to a new owner." Lin Tuo sighed slightly, faintly guessing.
After hesitating, he did not intervene in any way, but used the breath method to try to absorb the ether, and then reopened the time acceleration.
For the civil war in the sand table, Lin Tuo's attitude has always been the same, that is, never intervene unless necessary.
After all, many times, war is just a fierce solution to social contradictions. It is a necessary part of the development and evolution of civilization.
As for the ether, it is normal to fall during the war. After the war, peace will naturally recover.
And just after the time acceleration was turned on, texts began to pop up on the operation log.
[...The Xizhou Army won a great victory in the sunset over the Plains. After that, the army moved north, the imperial government was turbulent, and the imperial army retreated steadily.
[World Evolution 741,049 In the beginning of the year, the Xizhou Army arrived in Kyoto and besieged but did not attack. Thirty-two days later, the city gate opened wide and the city fell.
The Oike Dynasty lowered its flag, the Governor of Daxizhou entered Kyoto, and a new dynasty was established. The Ike Dynasty ruled over 741 years.]
...
...
In the Tuck Desert, the endless stretch of magnificent wall blocks everything.
In this early morning, while the research team was still trying new detection methods, no one knew that it was on another piece of land separated by a wall.
Is going through a dynasty change.
...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Kyoto.
Unlike outside the sandbox, at this time, it is the deep winter of February.
The New Year is not far away.
If it were in previous years, at this time, as the center of the pool country, the capital of the empire, it should be a busy time.
Schools and factories are gradually closed, and on both sides of the street, shops put all kinds of festive food and accessories...beautiful.
However, this year, the whole of Kyoto is just a dead end.
on the street.
A depression.
The citizens stay behind closed doors, and the few walking outside are mentally fatigued, with panic expressions, like little beasts, and any movement will make them nervous.
As the electric bell rang in the city, eyes peeked out from the enclosed houses on both sides of the street.
Then, I saw a cavalry formation coming from a distance, followed by a long infantry formation.
The soldiers had long been put on bright red uniforms, dressed completely different from those on the battlefield, with smooth leather boots, and spotless epaulettes, carrying a long spear, and walking in unison, along the main road of Kyoto, heading straight towards the palace.
"Father, mother... look at... soldier..."
In the room, there are occasional children making noises, and they will quickly be covered by their parents:
"Don't make a sound...that's the army of the new king."
"...Where are they going?"
"The palace." The nervous parents looked at the soldiers carefully and said, "Today is the day when the new king enters the palace."
...
In the north-central part of Kyoto, there is a group of buildings that still maintain the classical style.
Unlike the buildings that have emerged today in Chi State, the palace still retains the old style to a certain extent, with red lacquered palace walls and white jade fences.
However, today, the spacious square in front of the temple is filled with neat troops.
Although the square has been cleaned, there are still large areas of dark red, the corpse has long been dragged away, but the air is still full of blood.
In front of the army, is an entire cavalry queue.
"Seriously."
In this early winter morning, those tall and strong horses wearing specific armor flicked their tails and spewed white air.
"This is the palace. Remember, when I came last time, I was introduced to the palace gate by Vonneshi. Seeing an emperor had to cross eight thresholds, it was extremely cumbersome.
At that time, I was thinking in my heart that I would definitely remove those thresholds when I came back later. "
At the forefront is a pure white horse.
As the governor of Daxizhou and the leader of the rebel army, the middle-aged man wore a light uniform. He wore a white gloved left hand holding a whip, and his right finger pointed at the palace in front of him with a smile.
After a pause, he said: "By the way, where is Feng Nishi? I really miss returning to the old place."
Aside, a Xizhou army general replied:
"When I took over the palace before, the former queen led a small group of people hiding in the apse, fighting forever... Vonneshi was in it."
"Oh? Is that dead?" Governor Daxizhou raised his eyebrows.
"Yes."
"It's really strange, why I haven't seen before, he still has such a nature. With his as a person, I thought I would have been the first to surrender." Governor Xizhou said in surprise.
"Chief Hui... Your Majesty, the situation at that time was a bit abnormal.
According to what we know, the spirit of the group of people in the inner temple seems a little... weird.
I mean...they were tough and unreasonable at the time, and their bodies were sifted by bullets, but they didn't seem to feel any pain..."
"Is there such a thing?" Governor Xizhou frowned, with some doubts in his heart, but after thinking about it, he didn't immediately investigate it. After all, at this moment, the hard-line factions have been eradicated.
He has more important things to do.
"The hour is almost here, follow me into the palace."
Looking at his watch, Governor Xizhou said, and immediately led the crowd to dismount, a group of Xizhou officials and generals marched into the palace gate in mighty force.
...
Enter the nave.
Although the area of the palace nave is not as large as the front hall square, it is not small. Because it is winter, the trees around the courtyard are bleak, not very beautiful, and there is still some unmelted snow on the ground.
At the center is a statue more than ten meters high.
It is carved from white jade and looks like a young man.
Wearing a classical robe, holding a pointer in his hand, with a peaceful face, standing on the palace square, looking far away, as if overlooking the entire empire, his eyes are deep, seeming to hide infinite wisdom.
"Lin Sheng..." Seeing this statue, Governor Xizhou stopped for a while and uttered the name softly.
Yes, this is the statue of Lin Tuo.
Since he left the country more than two hundred years ago, the monarch has ordered statues of saints in cities across the country. The one in front of him was cast by the chief craftsman of the empire.
For two hundred years, Lin Sheng's image has long become a spiritual brand.
If you make an analogy, it's somewhat like Confucius on earth.
The emperors of the past dynasties were nominally disciples of saints.
"How can anyone get involved on the side of the couch...I can't move you now, wait, I will tear you down sooner or later..."
Muttering softly, Governor Xizhou looked away and stepped forward.
Several nearby officials who accidentally heard this had their hearts beating at the same time, but they did not dare to say anything.
...
Passing through the statue is the main hall.
It is also the place where a group of ministers are called to discuss state affairs.
At this moment, many people were already standing in the hall.
Those were all ministers from various departments of the country. There were not many, but not many, among them, there were new faces and old faces.
Seeing them, Governor Xizhou suddenly squeezed a bright smile on his face, as if the spring breeze was turning rain, and smiled: "Let the Qing wait a long time."
The ministers hurriedly saluted in unison: "See your majesty."
As a result, the smile on Governor Xizhou's face grew brighter.
Striding to the emperor's throne, he took a deep breath, turned and sat in the dragon chair, proudly, waving his hand:
"The officials needn't be so cautious. I have been in Daxizhou for decades, and I am not used to the etiquette of Kyoto, let alone talk nonsense.
The war has been set, and the next step is to settle down.
I invite you all to come today, but also to agree on how to restore stability to the world as soon as possible..."
...
In the palace, the discussions proceeded step by step.
The so-called agreement by the Governor of Xizhou is more appropriate than a notification. The whole process is probably that he unilaterally issued orders to the heads of various departments.
Guarded by the army outside the palace, thousands of rifles were aimed at, everything naturally went smoothly.
So, from time to time, I saw officials walking out of the temple, trembling, and crossing the square.
...
When the sun rose, the cold in the palace was dissipated. In the hall, apart from the Governor of Xizhou, there was only one person left.
That is a somewhat special "official":
The deputy dean of the Kyoto Research Institute is also the top scientist of the empire.
On the day the city was broken, the dean took poison and killed himself in order to marry the old dynasty.
In order of rank, he is now the top scholar of the Empire.
Compared with other courtiers, the Governor of the Western Zhou Dynasty obviously valued him more.
He got up, and kindly took the chief scholar to talk about family affairs, and then slowly said:
"The old dynasty was strong because of science, and I also knew the importance of science. I started from Xizhou and came here all the way. I killed many people along the way, but I did not kill any scholar."
"Your Majesty is kind."
The Governor of Xizhou smiled even more when he heard the words, and promised for a while, probably because he would continue to serve the new dynasty.
At the end, I remembered what it was like, and asked about the wrong state of a group of rebels in the previous apse.
Not knowing why, he felt that the person in front of him probably knew something.
Hearing this, the chief scientist was stunned for a moment, a momentary hesitation appeared on his face, and after all he sighed:
"Return to your Majesty, I do know about this...At that time, they should have activated the'Secret Seal'."
"Secret Seal?"
"Yes. That is the result of a scientific research project with the highest level of confidentiality in the country."
After a pause, he added:
"The same'machine' that can manipulate the human heart."
