Chapter 701: 19. Burning Ister River (6)

"You said that Wang Guanling's revolution broke out and issued a declaration of independence to declare the establishment of a republic?!"
Roland stood up from his seat, shocked by words.
Before getting in touch with Rudes, he had made many assumptions, including street conflicts, demonstrations, violent riots... As for the violent revolution, that was the last thought and the most dangerous situation.
The revolution is not to invite guests for dinner, nor is it sports competition. The revolution will not end until one of the guardians of the old order and the revolutionaries who break the old world falls.
If it is a top-down "velvet" revolution, it is better to say that the damage will be controlled within an acceptable range. But what broke out in the crown was an out-and-out violent revolution. Unlike the riots caused by the anti-tax and anti-donation campaigns in the past, the revolutionaries there carried out clear with iron and blood, and the officials and ruling institutions sent by Charlemagne were completely wiped out. The deputy governor self-disciplined, the staff of the military and police constitutional department were all hung on the tree, and all the marks of Charlemagne were erased-after doing these things, they made a clear political proposition: the king is out, long live the Republic.
Completely eradicate the monarchy and eliminate oppression. These propositions are very reasonable, and Roland also has a sense of identification with parts of the Declaration of Independence, but this does not affect his judgment at all.
(This is basically political suicide.)
Yalfheim is also a nominally republican country. In this respect, Li Lin only cares about practice, and does not care about titles or the like. As long as the grandfathers of the council do not add chaos, he is also happy to be able to accommodate different opinions and be humble. The governor who accepts criticism. On the other hand, this is also the republican idea of ​​the old Gilmanian kingdom rooted in the hearts of the elves. Although as the times and the situation evolved, they became inclined to strengthen central power, but the elves still had a faint impression of republican thought, which is why liberals have their markets. So although not so thorough, the success of Yalfheim can also be regarded as a kind of republican success.
However, this does not mean that the republican system can be fully promoted. The experience of Yalfheim can be copied by other countries. This is not only because Yalfheim has been hiding deeply, but more importantly, the crown collar does not have Yalf. Various elements of Heim’s success.
The revolutionaries of Wang Guanling have a strong ability to act, dare to act, be enthusiastic and impulsive. But these alone are not enough to achieve a career. They also need a strong enough cohesive core-not only an eloquent politician with agitation ability, but also a marshal with leadership and outstanding military talent, who can lead everyone from one victory to another. Judging from the history that Roland has learned so far, there is only one kind of politician and marshal—the emperor.
The crown now has Kosut, known for his wit. Mauriteel and Gorge Artur, leading the soldiers and the crusade. But neither of them is expected to be an emperor. Li Lin actually meets these two requirements. But he is the governor of the elves.
The lack of a strong enough core not only means a lack of decision-making strength and lack of skills, but also represents a lack of necessary binding force on the people who devote themselves to the revolution, although they preach the will to overthrow and eliminate tyranny. However, the seeds of violence and destruction are planted. Can you really harvest the fruits of freedom and fraternity? The fact is that while the romantic and radical crowd brought out the most destructive aspect of the revolution, it also ruined any possibility of compromise. After seeing the ending of the nobility, bureaucracy, military police and swinging on the tree, the mildest monarchy will also give up the idea of ​​dealing with the revolutionary government.
There is only one choice left for each monarchy-to replace these dissatisfied rebellions with head-to-head replacement.
What is even more fatal to the revolutionaries is that those ideas that sound very beautiful lack the necessary mass foundation. People do not really understand the core ideas of republicanism, but they naively think that "the life is better without the king" and lose in a short time. The result of the proliferation of authority and freedom is the creation of a large number of anarchists. This mobilized Wang Guanling and mobilized their few chips to meet Charlemagne's crusade, which constituted a fatal obstacle.
Conclusion: From the moment of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Republic of St. Eastvan was sentenced to death.
With a long sigh, Roland sat back in his seat again, and it made no sense to burn his eyebrows for what had happened. The most important thing now is to consider the situation and the future.
Li Lin once said that danger and opportunity are always accompanied by each other. When encountering a certain dilemma, there may be some kind of opportunity hidden in it. Everything depends on the angle of observation. This is the situation right now-danger and opportunity coexist.
"I do not understand."
Talking to Favna, relying on the concession to enter and leave the entire train except the carriage for Her Majesty the Lady, the Dragon Princess sat in the communication room and asked inexplicably:
"Since all countries are planning to suppress the violent revolution of Wang Guanling, and they use force to do so, why do you still think there is an opportunity? Is your adoptive father getting into the money and planning to make an arms business?"
The arms dealers who sell arms to attack their motherland are the real international arms dealers-the business activities of the consortium are easily reminiscent of Yuri Olov’s motto, in fact they do the same. But it's one thing in mind, it's another thing to say. If not only Noona and a group of insect killers were in this car, and multiple sound insulation facilities were arranged inside and outside the car, Favna's speech was enough to cause a storm.
"He doesn't care about the little money."
Roland drank her herbal tea, and clearly denied Faferna's hypothesis.
"His concern is mostly about how to make Yalfheim rise to the surface and make people accept its system after the revolution is suppressed."
"You are joking?"
Fafna asked in a loud voice.
Let a group of feudal reactionaries who tried the pain of the revolutionary plague struggle to suppress the revolution and accept another split regime established by aliens, at least nominally republican? Roland who came up with this idea obviously needed a doctor.
"I'm serious and I'm very healthy both physically and mentally."
Roland took three apples from the fruit basket beside him and placed them on the table. One is rotten, one is worm, and the other is shriveled.
"Let you choose, which one would you choose?"
Without hesitation for a moment, Favna grabbed the shrivelled apple.
"correct."
Roland nodded, grabbed the two remaining apples, and continued to ask:
"If you say "radical revolution" and "expansionism" are these two apples, you have the "realist" apple in your hand...I am so metaphorical, you should think of it?"
Understand no more.
The national socialist Alfheim is definitely an unwelcome existence for the human camp. It also has the urge to change the rules of the world and a sense of mission. But the violent revolutionary who killed the king, the nobles, and the church. There are also unpredictable, always planning to compare the expansionist Charlemagne of the world. Pragmatic and terrible sharp ears are obviously the objects of better dealings. Other countries under the pressure of the first two will not lose sight of this, and the choice is also very clear.
"It turns out that it doesn't have to be the best. Just do better than others."
Playing with the apple in his hand. Favna suddenly remembered an old joke: two people met a lion, although they can't run the lion, as long as one of them can run faster than the other.
Although there is no image like an apple in your hand. But it is also an easy-to-understand analogy: Although Alfheim is not popular, or even hated by humans, it is better than Charlemagne, so he is fortunate to get rid of the plight of being a dead enemy in the hearts of the countries.
"Well, this is indeed an opportunity for Alfheim, but it is also the same for Charlemagne. As long as they propose an alliance initiative, calling on all countries to establish an alliance that'maintains the faith and the monarchy' and succeeds. Then Charlemagne 'S international status will be improved in one fell swoop and become the de facto leader of the human camp. For other camps, this is not a good thing."
"It is indeed possible for this to happen, but it is unlikely."
The revolution has not yet become a disaster that affects all countries, no kings and nobles have been pushed to the guillotine by the revolutionary masses, and all countries have not yet experienced the horrors of violent revolution. Let them form a "sacred alliance" in this state. The organization is still very difficult. Even if Archbishop Li’s character broke out, this great undertaking was not a good thing for Charlemagne. Becoming a leader not only represents power, but also assumes the security obligations of the alliance, in other words, transforms his national strength into the safety of all members of the alliance. dividend. This is not a small burden, which is enough to bring down a big country.
Eliseliu's shrewdness will not see the risks, and he will not put Charlieman on the stove before the time is far from ripe.
Having said that, there is still something Roland can do, and he will start to act.
"Go and see Her Royal Highness."
After adjusting the military uniform, adjusting the collar and buckle, Roland got up and picked up the military cap.
"I think that Your Highness is almost about to meet me."
##########
Admiral Julius Jacob de Heinau is loudly reprimanding the artillery commander, asking them to bombard the solid walls of Buda City with more accurate and violent artillery without worrying about the ammunition ceiling and the life and death of the residents of Buda City. The artillery's voice even overshadowed the roar of the artillery when it was fired.
This may only be an illusion, because the general is closer to his staff and artillery commander than the artillery. Under normal circumstances, the human vocal cords cannot make a louder sound than hundreds of field guns and naval guns. However, the current General Heinau may indeed be more noisy than hundreds of artillery.
He was so excited that his emotions were out of control. This is inevitable. Although the artillery has done their best to continue the shelling, the towering Buda city wall still stands there. In the past, the strongest Ganeshari legion of the camel clan orc failed to penetrate the solid wall of the Buda city. It is still like a stubborn warrior, standing still against the rumbling artillery. Faced with this formidable fortress city, Hanau was going crazy.
There are no fortresses in the world that can't be overcome. All the fortresses that claim to "never fall" are finally stepped on by the attackers. As long as they are willing to pay, and have enough patience and strength, the attacking side can always see their flag rise on the other side's city wall.
Hanau didn't have this. He only had 80% of the troops of the occupying army with the crown, plus the temporarily joined "Army Ister River Fleet" and several floating gunboats. All the artillery concentrated bombing the walls strengthened by the defensive array is still slightly insufficient. Finally, several gaps were exploded. When the infantry tried to rush in, it was fired by the rebels. After the siege troops dropped dozens of bodies, they fled in embarrassment and the rebels seized the opportunity to fill the gap. Then the artillery sounded again, starting a new cycle...
In fact, he could not use this stupid way of war, wasting the lives of artillery shells and soldiers in vain. If he honestly carried out the orders of the Prime Minister, surrounded the two cities of Buda and Pace, cut off all the passages, and continued to harass. Before the arrival of powerful reinforcements, try to wipe out the material reserves and morale of the rebels. After the two armies converged. Naturally, two cities can be easily won with one blow.
But the problem is precisely in reinforcements. It was Titans, the army’s dead rival, that the group of upstarts pretending to be like a consortium. They wanted the glorious army to obey their command and use the army’s losses to accomplish their merits. What a shameless asshole! In order to preserve the face of the army and the crown prince. It also saved his life. Haina must work harder to achieve results.
"Concentrate on firepower! Speed ​​up! Gentlemen. We have no time to spend time!"
The artillery general shouted with his fists, and spit almost flew to the artillery commander's face, leaving the poor colonel behind. He turned to vent his anger towards the commando commander.
"Tell your soldiers to keep their eyes wide and put on bayonets. Once the gap is opened, they step on the landing point of the cannonball and rush up, don’t worry about the formation! Once you find the chaos, rush to kill them!"
"Understand, General."
"Tell the brave soldiers that they don’t care who they see, armed or unarmed, as long as they don’t wear Charlieman Army uniforms, they are all killed."
Hanao gestured with his right hand near the neck, then said:
"They must pay for their actions!"
There was only revenge left in Hanau’s mind, and there was a little fear. When I recalled the secret communication last night, Prince Wang became more and more harsh and cold, and Hainan, who was always known for its brutality, couldn’t help but feel cold in the back of his neck. . At the same time, he also hated pushing him to such a field, and continued to humiliate his rebels.
Those mobs must die!
He wants to find every crown leader who can be found, let these two-legged animals die after all the horror and pain in the world, and then hang them on the tree to warn their compatriots so that they will never have the guts to charge the Charlemagne Looking sideways, they never have the courage to challenge the majesty of the Wang Family Army.
This is exactly what the crown prince asked him to punish the rebels and let them remember the more powerful Charlemagne as the Charlemagne remembered the Albion hybrids and the orc debris. Charlemagne looked at him sideways-no need for the Crown Prince to remind him that he would now complete this sacred mission as best he could.
And his soldiers.
"Of course, General."
Major Nicholson answered on behalf of his colleagues, his voice cold and chilling.
"We will do this, this is what we are here for."
"Yes, major, this is our purpose."
General Heinau stared at him, and looked at the other officers and the three ready-to-go sabre companies, his eyes becoming cold. He was about to say something to motivate these soldiers to enter the city to kill, set fire, rob, and rape—anyway, as long as the mob can feel terror and pain, they can do anything. The artillery cheered together, and the towering city walls burst into mourning. In the thick smoke, the masonry wood and human fragments poured out of the gap like a flood.
"go ahead!"
Hanau pulled out the command knife to point at the gap, and the officers of the sharp knife also took out the sabers and shouted "Long live", drank the brandy and began to charge, a large number of soldiers followed behind them, screaming "Long live", " For the king" or "for Charlemagne", flock to the wall gap together.
Colonel Maurer Pal, who commanded the defense forces on the city wall, was taken aback by the sight in the telescope. The first time he saw so many people launching a long-lived charge, he was a little dazed. He didn’t understand it for a while, Charlemagne Rooster. How did it become so fanatical? Could it be that Heinau gave his men medicine? After a few seconds, a cold smile appeared on his face.
Hanau obviously learned the previous lesson. The gap that was opened this time is much larger than before. After the gap is opened, the shells continue to fall on the left and right sides of the gap, which hinders the soil system and the engineers to repair the wall and further expand the gap. The sharp knives no longer huddled together as silly as before, but spread out and approached the gap under the cover of gunfire.
Facing the enemies with scattered formations and stepping on the cannonball landing site~EbookFREE.me~The trained soldiers can continue to maintain a certain degree of hit, and the militiamen who have learned to shoot in a hurry have completely caught the blind, plus the other party The air gunboat of the United States guided the correction of the drop point of the shell while constantly interfering with the artillery fire. The fall of the city wall may only be a matter of time.
That Haina must be very happy for the imminent capture of the city wall, next...
"retreat."
Glancing at the distant line-up of infantry infantry that began to line up, Maurettel turned and said to his men:
"According to the scheduled plan, withdraw troops from the city walls in batches. Let the guards stationed in the gap also retreat and evacuate in different directions in units of squads. Don’t run too fast, keep a certain distance from the Charlie Man to ensure that they Can see our ass."
"Colonel?"
The startled officers looked at Maurettel, who said in a winning tone:
"Do what I said, I have a plan..." To be continued. .
