Power and Empire Chapter 1674: Unrest (2)


"Stop, what are you going to do?" Bolder screamed to his impulsive son

"Naturally, I'm going to teach those ordinary people who don't know the height of the sky!" The young officer replied with a cold face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a trace of hideousness. "They should be punished for their rudeness, in this land On, we are the masters of Gangfei!"

"You!" Boulder's face was sigh with anger, and he felt that the conversation he had just said was in vain

"Well said, Governor Boulder, you have a good subordinate!"

At this moment, a loud voice came from the door. An imperial general who was about 30 years old stepped in. The metal-soled riding boots stepped on the marble floor, making a crisp sound. Inside the room The light of shining on the imperial general, a dazzling general star flashed on the shoulders of a straight blue sè Gangfei general’s uniform

Bold saw the figure walking in, and a flash of surprise flashed across his face. Thinking of the person's identity, he couldn't help taking a breath, and under the stunned gaze of his son, he hurriedly left the desk and walked over, respectfully. Respectfully pay a salute

"Lord Earl, I didn't expect you to come to Putao!"

"I haven't seen you in a year, and the Governor seems to have lost a lot of weight. The affairs here have taken a lot of attention to the Governor!"

Remchart, Senior Officer of the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Republic of Congo, waved his hand to Boulder, even if it was a return, although he was the person in charge of the supervision duties of the Ministry of Imperial Affairs, and performed his powers on behalf of the Emperor. Alder is just the governor of a small area, and there is a huge gap between the two identities, but Bolder was his former deputy in the army. The relationship between the two cannot be viewed simply by level. At the beginning, Bolder was able to be appointed as the governor of Lisboa. It was Remchart’s recommendation.

"Don’t dare, as an emperor. It’s your subordinate's duty to do your best!" Boulder stood upright, and the **** respectfully turned around and ordered the young officer to pour a glass of water and put it on the table, according to him. The memory of Earl Remchart, who was born in an empire, has a very simple lifestyle, never attending luxurious banquets. He never drinks.

"Yes, it seems that the easy life has not completely degraded you, at least you can see some of the style of the year, this is?" Remsha nodded, and looked sharply at the young officer who poured water. After a glance, he slowly sat down on the leather sofa opposite Governor Boulder

"It's my son, who is currently responsible for the security of Lisboa!"

Bold hesitated, he really did not expect that the important figure of the military department, Count Remchat, would arrive in Lisbon at this moment, and now the city is in chaos. Makes his face look a little ugly. As a subordinate of Remchart, he is very aware of the huge efforts and financial resources that his former boss has spent on the policy of universal assimilation, and that he can become the governor of Lisbonto. Because of the assimilation policy for the former superiors. Appreciated by Remshat

"What's going on outside?" Remchat held up the water glass with a calm face and blew the water gently.

"Your Excellency, turmoil has begun in the North District!" Just when Bolde didn't know how to explain it, the voice of the guard came from outside the door,

"Unrest?" Remchat raised his eyebrows.

At this moment, Bold felt that his heart was about to jump out, and his gaze carefully swept across the face of Count Remchat opposite, and the riot that was happening before him was undoubtedly announcing. The softening policy advocated by Remchart has failed, which is like a slap in the face, slapped on the face of the former boss who advocates assimilation of the universal.

"My lord, this is a complete accident. Please trust your subordinates. All these problems will be solved immediately." Pold took out the handkerchief in his pocket, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said with breathlessness. Fact The turmoil last time happened very suddenly, which made him unprepared. His people in Lisbon are pretty good, and he has adopted a gentle policy towards the generals. The generals still have a very good impression of the governor of Lisbon. Okay, the relationship with the generalists has been a bit strained recently, but it is far from reaching the point of a rebellion in the city.

As a subordinate of Remchat, he knew too much about the boss’s fierce style of doing things. If it were before, Remchat would immediately demand full suppression, but to his surprise, this should The angry former boss, at this moment, seemed to completely ignore the smoke billowing city outside the window, his eyes only focused on the water glass in his hand.

"Father, I will solve these problems right away!" The young officer also saw that the atmosphere was not right. He saluted the two of them and turned around to leave

"No need to go!"

Earl Remchart called to the young officer, put down the water glass in his hand, stood up and adjusted his collar, came to the window, looked at the street where the smoke was rising outside the window, and the chaotic crowd. Slowly say, "There is no upheaval in Lisboa, I am here to tell you in particular that the army does not move, everything here has nothing to do with us"

"My lord means we stand by and watch!" Boulder and the young officer looked at each other and were both stunned. Without the suppression of the army, this turmoil would soon become a thug. Feast,

"Is there a problem? This is originally the general people's own business!"

Count Remchat turned around from the window, with a cold sneer on the corners of his mouth. "Aren’t they yelling for us to leave the general suite? Then let them see. Without our protection, the Lisbon Trustee will What became of it!"

On the night of August 14th, on the seventh day of Fatty’s landing in Huacheng, a **** riot broke out in Lisbonto,

In the middle of the night, raging fires ignited all over the city of Lisbon. Some hungry Lisbon people rushed into the closed shops along the road. During the period, a large number of refugees joined them, and the streets were full of terrible shouts of killing. In the light of the fire, some unidentified Lisbon trustees chanted "For the Principality!" and "Eliminate the Gangster!" slogans rushed into the streets and alleys of Lisbon Too. This was a shock of extreme chaos. Most people What happened to the Lisboa Nobles was passively involved in it,

Thousands of thugs are holding torches, looking for the so-called enemies of Gang Fei. But in the raging fire, he rushed into the mansions of the nobles in these cities, looted all the belongings they saw, and smashed the iron gates of the other courtyard with stones. The mobs swarmed in, pushed the beautiful marble statue heavily, pretended to look for food among the scattered fragments, and looked at a precious treasure that was at hand. Everyone's eyes were completely red, and their throats swallowed. . The mobs swept away all the belongings of the nobles in the city,

That night, white snowflakes floated in the sky of Lisbon,

Tens of thousands of refugees, coupled with the instigation of thugs, have developed into a terrible chaos during the day.

The thugs who hadn't snatched the property in front of them once again rushed into the looted aristocratic giants, in order to persecute these looted aristocrats. Handing over all the treasures that might be hidden, the thugs tied the nobleman to the white marble in the courtyard and beat him with a thorny stick in turn, until the nobleman even handed over the last bag of copper coins in his family.

The bright red human blood is like plum blossoms blooming in the deep winter, dyed red with marble and pure white stone surface,

It's the third day. The lack of response from the Congolese and African troops has further stimulated the daring of the mobs. The target of the looting quickly shifted from the noble area in the city to the general civilian area. The mobs and refugees swept like locusts, and searched house-to-house. All the valuables were taken away, and when they saw beautiful women, they lined up in turns until the women swallowed their last breath in humiliation and despair, just a few days. Three-quarters of the block was hit, and the remaining block was spared because it was the location of the military camp

"The fourth day!"

Boulder was standing at the entrance of a street full of corpses, surrounded by a group of soldiers from Gangfei. Boulder's gaze looked at the unrecognizable city with a little complicated, the corpses in all directions. Showing hideousness in the beautiful and pure white snow,

He is not a man, but he has served as the governor of this city for six years. It is impossible to say that there is no feelings. This is the core of the universal Principality, the most prosperous area, but now, just short In the past three days, everything was ruined. The white snow on the street was stained red by human blood. It was a short stretch of road that needed to walk over the pile of corpses to pass. In the sky just after dawn, countless pillars of smoke were rising. Burned houses, groups of thugs smashed shops at will, robbed items, or threw corpses on the side of the road into the fire between cities and burned them at will

"Your Excellency, Lord Remshat has something to ask you to come over!" An adjutant in the uniform of the Ministry of Military Affairs came up from behind.

"Master Remchat?" A hint of excitement flashed across Polder's face. Finally, he was about to end it all. He hurriedly followed the adjutant to the base camp in the city and pushed away the front office. Door, he saw the back of the former boss standing in front of the window

"My Lord Earl!" Boulder stood upright, still using the same name as his former subordinate

"How's the situation in the city?" Remchat turned around, his face was a little pale. He advocated a policy of gentleness towards universal sets. This time he had to resort to extraordinary measures. From the bottom of his heart, there are always a few Tangled

"It's a mess! It's horrible." The **** Bald shook his head ugly, hesitated, and cautiously said, "My lord, this is almost the end, when will we end this!"

"End?" Remchat looked at Bolder with an unexpected look.

"My lord, I have been with you for seven years. I am not blind. Your lord suddenly came on the night of the internal riots in Lisbon, and the outbreak of the riots was so sudden and comprehensive. If you are not very familiar with the situation, you can't do this at all. I I remember that the adults have a lot of people in the underground world of Lisbonto, not to mention that the adults strictly forbid the army to intervene! Let it grow from small to large, and eventually it will be out of control!" Bold clasped ten fingers together and the corners of his mouth. He smiled bitterly, "It's just that the subordinates don't understand, why did the adults who chose the gentle policy at the time direct and perform such a **** show"

Remshat gave him a dignified look and said coldly

"I believe you can also see that the combination of the Duke of Putao and Raphael, the traitor, has completely wiped out our years of hard work. Now Putao is full of antagonistic emotions towards the empire. It’s like sitting on a crater that may erupt at any time,

"If we don't want to be spoiled by the volcano and completely lose the universal, we must make the universal people realize! Only we can protect them!

"And!" Remchat's voice stopped, with a burst of chill in his tone, and said, "Such turmoil. Not only will it appear in Lisbon, but soon, the entire general set will be similar. The situation! We will wait and see the changes, and wait until enough. The army will step in. At that time, ordinary people will know who they really need compared with the national call and the safety of their loved ones!"

"The whole set!" Bould heard the entire scalp exploded, and each hair stood up

"My lord, the chaotic people are starting to attack the barracks!" An adjutant outside the door hurried in. Remchat nodded with a clear look, and replied plainly "I got it"

On the fourth day of Lisboa, the rioters in the city rushed to the last block, and they were violently counterattacked by the Congolese and African troops. The blindness and fanaticism of the general rioters and peasants were met after ten minutes of the initial chaos. Crushing by well-trained war machines of the Congolese and African army,

In each street, the shield phalanx and the spear phalanx cooperated with each other, and the archers fought back intensively. In contrast, the chaotic people seemed more than fanatical and lacking in calmness. They lacked planning and command, and they had no weapons. They also had simple wooden forks and kitchen knives in their hands. Holding the door panel of the house blindly rushed to kill, and did not know how to concentrate people on the key areas. Soon after the initial frenzy passed, the offense began to collapse

The thugs in Lisbonto retreated in a hurry, leaving densely packed corpses and wounded on the ground, and the Congolese and African troops marched into the chaotic neighborhood

Comprehensive peace has begun. When encountering ordinary people wandering back and forth on the streets, regardless of the reason, the archers from the army of the Congolese and African troops will immediately smash them, in less than a day. The riots in Lisboa were completely quelled. In the burning neighborhoods, there were no living people visible except the bodies. The Lisboa riots caused the death of more than 70,000 people in Lisboa. Hundreds of thousands of Lisbon trustees were left homeless, and the bad news quickly spread throughout the general population. Preparations are being made to drive away the various regions of Gangfei, as if they have suffered a blow

The tragedy of Lisbonto made all the local forces in Universal hesitate. They suddenly discovered that the Principality of Universal did not have its own army, and even the law and order were in charge of the law and order. Once the law and order really let go Regardless, the whole general set will be chaotic. It is like a long-term sick and weak person. Once he loses the support of outsiders, I am afraid that he will not stand up, but fall heavily to the ground. This is mainly because the price of the Lisboa tragedy is too cruel. Now, various versions of rumors have also been released one after another,

"The Lisboa Rio Riot was planned by the Duke!"

"Your Excellency has been defeated, and the army has been defeated!"

"The Duke is a selfish man. He betrayed the entire Lisbon Torre for himself!"

The ordinary people are completely at a loss. They are just ordinary people and can't grasp it at all. This is the continuous occurrence of events. What kind of causal relationship is there? They only know that without the protection of the army, their personal safety will be threatened. Especially for the aristocratic class of the Duchy of Universal, they are the main force supporting the Duke of Universal to return to the country. The tragedy also frightened these people. The unrest in more and more areas has affected the nobles who are often miserable.

The wind direction that originally supported the duke’s return to China has changed. Two completely different views spread among the general aristocracy.

One is that the duke should be welcomed into the inland of the Principality as soon as possible, and the system of the Principality should be re-established, so that the entire Principality can be stabilized from top to bottom, while the other is that the turmoil in various parts of the Universal is because of wanting It was caused by breaking away from the protection of Gangfei. In terms of allegiance to a duke who did nothing and let the turmoil affect him, the call for protection was obviously higher, which caused quarrels. The two factions even broke out in conflict. Swearing at the other party is treachery, no ruler and no country, and the other party also scolds the other party as being selfish and misleading the country, completely disregarding the life and death of ordinary people.

"This is a layout at the expense of the entire Principality. Even if it's not good enough, it must be broken. There are also masters in the field of justice and non-conformity!"

In the castle on Huacheng Island, the fat man was a little surprised to examine the intelligence he had just obtained. He originally wanted to use the turmoil in various places to completely ignite the general feelings of opposition to Gangfei, but this plan has not yet come. From the beginning, the Lisboto tragedy happened. Gang Fei’s hand mixed up the water and made the persecution he originally designed to become impossible to implement. This move was very sharp. The fat man was very good at presiding over the matter behind his back. People, a little more curious and expectant, have not met such an opponent for a long time.

"Your Majesty, Saron-sama’s report from Gangfei Kyoto!" A guard walked in with a report. The fat man took a look. Gangfei’s battle in the south failed again, with hundreds of thousands of troops. In the end, it was because of the lack of naval power that the scourge did not cross the strait

"Go and notify the Duke to come over!" The fat man solemnly put down the report in his hand

"Your Majesty~IndoMTL.com~ Are you looking for me?"

Soon, the radiant Duke of Putu walked in from the outside and respectfully saluted the fat man. He had just obtained another area's allegiance, and his subordinates added another 1,500 troops. Now his army has grown to a size of 6,700 men. With the support of a large number of ordnance transported by the Falcon Navy, he is making ambitious preparations for landing on the mainland of Phu Tau.

"The Emperor Gangfei is coming back!" Fatty handed him the report in his hand, "The speed of landing on the mainland must be accelerated"

"Ah, so fast!" The Duke of Putao took a look at the information, his face suddenly looked dim, he hesitated and said, "The army still needs training, and the specific landing site is still being studied and contacted. It's an eyebrow, it's a port close to the coast, but recently, the other party's attitude has suddenly changed, so...!"

"Time is running out, so you can't wait any longer. If you can't get assistance, let's go to war!" The fat man glanced at the corner of his mouth, "Imperial Navy can assist you, first take a landing site!"
