Alien Empire Total War

"We must take down the Sona Palace as soon as possible, and arrest the tyrant's family and imprison them. Except for the tyrant, the nobles in the noble district cannot move for the time being. They are the key to us dealing with the kingdom's army!"

Inside the command post outside Heroes Square, the leader of the Santos Party pointed at the map of Ankerton City, spitting.

"General Berlan, how is your troop gathering place? I need you to personally lead the team to the noble district and try to persuade them to surrender. Sandy will go with you."

Listening to his order, Harvey Berran, who surrendered to the Santos party, reluctantly replied: "Your Excellency Santos, our army was previously dispersed by armed citizens. Although I tried my best to gather the troops, there are still almost one infantry regiment so far. The number of people lost contact with you, the morale of the soldiers who gathered up is low, and the officers from noble backgrounds also refused to cooperate with you, so if you want to count on them, forget it."

"Refused to cooperate with us?" Santos sneered and said, "Since they refuse to cooperate with us, then there is no need to cooperate, General Berlan, I will send someone to help you solve the trouble of disobeying the military order."

Santos has never been soft-hearted when dealing with the aristocracy. Occasional compromises and concessions are just to win their support and strengthen his own strength.

Hearing this, Bellan immediately understood the meaning of the other party, his expression changed slightly, and said, "There's no need to be so extreme, Your Excellency Santos, I will send someone to persuade them."

Viscount Knox on the side shouted at this time: "General Berlan, those noble officers are obstacles to our army's victory, I don't believe that I have killed them all, and I still can't find anyone who is qualified for their positions. "

After surrendering to the Santos party, the leader of the newly promoted nobles sided with the Santos party wholeheartedly. He has already planned to overthrow the king. In addition to the previous contradictions, he has long been unable to reconcile with the old aristocratic forces, and now he can no longer look back. .

"That's right, General Berran, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, those officers are unreliable." Santos echoed, and he said decisively: "That's it, Sandy, you bring the worker commandos with you. Kill those officers who refuse to cooperate, and promote experienced veterans. I believe that the soldiers see the hope of promotion and will not care about the lives of the nobles who once oppressed them."

"I see, Eckel." Sandy responded, then turned and left. Looking at Bellan's ugly face, Santos reminded meaningfully:

"General Berlan, I have released the news of your surrender. I believe that it will not be long before the whole country will know that you have joined the great revolutionary cause. In other words, we are already on the same boat, and you have no way out. The king and the old nobles will not allow you, a traitor, to live."

Bellan remained silent. A trace of bitterness flashed in his eyes. After a few seconds, he took a deep breath, raised his head and said, "I understand, Your Excellency Santos, I have no way out."

His voice fell, and there were several gunshots outside, covering up the words behind him, Santos nodded at him, turned and walked out of the small building, looking in the direction of the Sona Palace - all the ten captured guns were transported here, The Sona Palace was bombarded in turn, and the red brick palace wall was broken in many places under the shelling, and several water splashes were splashed from time to time on the moat below.

"Attack! Attack! Conquer Sona Palace and show the tyrants the wrath of the people's vengeance!"

He shouted loudly and enthusiastically. Around him, countless armed citizens with high weapons poured into the Heroes Square. In the square, they had prepared long wooden boards that were made up. As soon as the palace wall collapsed, they would Can cross the moat and enter the palace!

…

On the outskirts of Ankerton City, Eden Manor.

This splendid aristocratic manor has entered a state of martial law at this time. The guards of the Duke of Ireland are patrolling the walls of the manor with muskets. The rumbling sound of cannons coming from the city makes everyone feel uneasy.

The news of the riots of the citizens had already spread, and the Duke of Ireland learned that the old duke, who had fantasized about overthrowing King Loren and becoming the new king, had passed the initial fury. He sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, the carpet in front of him Fragments of the fine china that he smashed remained on it.

At this moment, the door was opened from the outside, and his eldest son Kelender strode in. He ignored the debris on the ground and said in a deep voice:

"Father, the latest news, the newly promoted nobles and Brigadier General Berlan betrayed us, they surrendered to the Santos Party and besieged the Sona Palace with armed thugs."

"It's good." The old duke said coldly, "It's really good. They can't even deal with a mob of thugs, so they still want to stage a coup?"

"Uh..." Curender hesitated for a while, but still explained: "Father, the Second Brigade was besieged by armed thugs on their way to Heroes' Square. The thugs raided the barracks and captured the ten artillery pieces stored inside, so After defeating the officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com also surrounded Berlan and Nokel in the Holy Spirit Cathedral, forcing them to surrender."

"Then what?" The old duke didn't react at all. He asked back, "Kelund, what do you think we should do now?"

"I think we should wait for the troops still on the border to come back and join them in suppressing Ankerton's rebellion," Curender replied.

The old duke shook his head and seemed dissatisfied with the eldest son's answer. He asked again, "What do you think of the future of the Santos party? Can they successfully overthrow the king and establish a new country?"

"I don't think it's possible, father." Curender replied immediately: "As you said, their army was just a mob of thugs, and it was purely a fluke that they could defeat the Second Brigade in the city streets with complex terrain. It doesn't mean that they can defeat the main army force that came to suppress."

"What if there is our assistance?"

"Our assistance?" Kelender was startled, he looked at his expressionless father, and quickly understood the other's consciousness, he answered truthfully: "Father, if there is our assistance, their success rate will definitely increase. , but what's the point of that? They only have the support of the citizens of Ankerton, and they will be suppressed in the end."

"That's not necessarily true." The old duke's face finally showed an expression, and he said meaningfully: "I don't think the Santos party will have no backers, Kelund, look at it, wait a day or two, if there is a new I don't mind working with them if the news comes."

"Are you serious, father." Curender couldn't understand.

"Of course, Curender," said the old duke, "what if they succeed? A country without a king will only be a mess, and we will have a chance sooner or later."
