Chapter 2467: Idaril's gunshots

You said that Frank VII did not seek the opinions of the Midgardians and Alfheimers and sold them. Is this disrespecting them and betraying the loyal overseas subjects?
Stop making trouble, each one is better than singing!
How did the subjects of Midgard and Alfheim insult him when Frank VII promoted the "Edict of 1622"? Does anyone take this edict seriously? Are you so loyal?
When His Majesty the Emperor asked his overseas subjects to pay taxes, where was the "loyalty" of the overseas subjects reflected?
Qiao An himself is a subject of the colony, but he has to say something of conscience: "The subjects of any overseas colony of any country are unfamiliar white-eyed wolves in their bones, and they can never be loyal to the sovereign state for a long time!"
The Holy Ashen Empire, which has just suffered a fiasco, has no power to maintain its rule in Midgard and Alfheim. Keeping these two overseas colonies means continuing blood loss until it is dragged to death. Before the Midgardians and Alfheimers have yet to follow the example of the Far Easterners and publicly raise the flag of rebellion, it is wise to sell this rapidly depreciated asset before it becomes worthless. Act of.
There is nothing wrong with Emperor Frank's auction of the colony. The question is who to sell to.
If Qiao An is asked to choose a buyer, he is most attracted to the Kingdom of Kolas, which has just defeated the Holy Ashen Empire. This new country is full of vigor and vigor, and the monarch is wise. If the colonists of the New World can get on this "hit ride" , The future is bright.
Unfortunately, His Majesty Roland seemed to recognize the essence of "colonial residents are all white-eyed wolves", or he did not agree with "colonial expansionism" at all and refused to take over Midgard and Alfheim.
Among the remaining buyers, Qiao An felt that Feizhen Kingdom was the best choice.
Fei is really the "leader" of the industrial revolution since the modern world of Vares.
In terms of political structure, constitutional monarchy and parliamentary election systems are more in line with the appetites of the younger generation who are deeply influenced by the Enlightenment. In terms of economic system, Feizhen advocates "laissez-faire" and "laws of the market", compared with those old feudal powers. , Less control over overseas colonies.
Feizhen also owns the most complete and developed Austrian law education and scientific research system in the world of Vales. About half of the high-end technology patents in the field of magical industry are invented by Feizhen scholars. A highly developed science and technology that respects rationality. For young scholars like Qiao An, this country is undoubtedly very attractive, and it is inevitable to yearn for it.
If the Feizhen Kingdom can replace the Holy Ashen Empire and become the new overlord of Midgard and Alfheim through peaceful transfer, Qiao An would be happy to see it, but the reality shattered his expectations.
The high-handed policy adopted by the Feizhen authorities against the Jotunheim tax resistance movement made Qiao An disappointed in this country.
In his opinion, the "Declaration Law" promulgated by the Feizhen Council is a joke!
Not to mention the specific provisions of this bill, just this kind of legislative act committed a logical fallacy similar to "circular argument."
The protest slogan of the Jotunheims is
no taxation without representation.
If there are no colonial-born members in the Fijian Parliament, the interests of the colony cannot be reflected in the Parliament. The bill imposed on the colony by the Parliament is a tyranny that ignores public opinion. To treat the native land and the colony differently is to apply a double standard, and the colonial residents have the right to resist-this set of logic makes sense and is impeccable.
So how did the Feichen Council fight back?
Those self-proclaimed elite gentlemen concocted a decree on their own initiative in a meeting where no representatives of the colony were present, declaring that the Fijian Parliament could legislate for the colony without heeding the voice of the colonial people. If the latter protested, it would be an illegal rebellion.
Isn't this special dictatorship wrapped up in a parliamentary system, or open bullying that doesn't treat colonial residents as human?
Untouchables! You dare to say that you did not break the law!
what? You ask which decree was committed and where is the evidence?
Ha ha! Members of Parliament have declared that no evidence is needed to convict you, so they asked if you were afraid? !
How could the so-called most enlightened political system in the contemporary era allow such a naked robber logic to prevail?
Qiao An now feels that it is better to seek colonial independence than to be a obedience to such a rogue country!
In fact, in the turbulent spring of 1626, there were countless colonial intellectuals like Qiao An who were disappointed with the Feizhen government and changed their minds. In the near future, they will become the backbone of the era.
The arrogant and arrogant members of the Fijin ruling party lacked the most basic understanding of the tensions in the New World. They used the most ugly party to fight against each other, and indulged in showing off their authority. They did not know that their self-proclaimed toughness had already served Feizhen and the New World. The complete rupture of the colony lit the "fuse."
At the beginning of March 1626, this "fuse" finally burned to its end.
The Fichen Parliament tried to suppress colonial protests with the "Declaration Act". It was purely delusional. Stimulated by this bill, the slogan of "no taxation without representation" became more popular and won unprecedented widespread recognition.
The new city of Avalon under the command of Governor Winthrop seemed to be calm, but the fire of resistance was not extinguished by rifles and bayonets, but spread to the towns and villages around the capital, showing the momentum of a spark.
On the evening of March 7, Earl Winthrop summoned General Convalley, the commander of the garrison in Jotunheim, and claimed to have received a secret report that the leader of the anti-tax gang "Freedom Sons" planned the so-called "New Avalon". Joseph Adams and his allies behind the Holocaust are now hiding in the valley town of Idalil, about two hundred miles south of New Avalon.
Governor Winthrop also revealed that this group of thugs had also established an arsenal in the town of Idaril, hoarding a large amount of guns and ammunition smuggled in from abroad, and planned to launch an armed rebellion. They must send troops to suppress it as soon as possible to avoid a major disturbance. trouble.
General Kanghuali received the Governor's order and immediately mobilized an elite cavalry regiment from the garrison, and sent it to Idalier overnight to capture the wanted criminals such as Adams and destroy the local arsenal.
The commander of this cavalry regiment was Lieutenant Colonel Mark Smith, who had served as an adjutant to General Cornwallis.
Lieutenant Colonel Smith did not dare to neglect, and led eight hundred light cavalry on a night march. When they arrived at Yew Valley, it was almost dawn, and the officers and soldiers under his command were tired and yawning.
At this moment, the front scout sent back an alarm, saying that he saw many suspicious figures in the mist-shrouded valley.
