Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 24: 1st night

When Charlie returned to the infantry, it was already dusk, and the setting sun made most of the sky blood red, giving people a sense of unease as if the end of the world was coming.

This feeling is particularly strong in the hearts of King Loren and other members of the royal family in the Sona Palace. The palace walls of Sona Palace have been crumbling under the bombardment of the rebels for a long time. Covered by a heavy and oppressive atmosphere, both soldiers and servants were in a hurry, with despair on their faces.

Each of them knew that they were a trapped beast, and when they saw the soldiers in blue and blue uniforms lined up in the Heroes' Square and fired at the palace, they had already realized that the Second Brigade had betrayed them, and even so, no one was there. Dare to offer to surrender - the blood of the civilians who died in their shelling has not been cleaned up in Heroes Square, and the shocking pools of blood and human body stumps and arms are constantly reminding them that they have no way out.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Charlie outside the city. Charlie, after equipping the infantry regiment, followed Junio's advice and went out of the city to march outside the safer suburbs, but to his surprise, the enthusiasm of the riots It has spread from the inside of the city to the outside of the city, and along the way, they bumped into many armed peasants one after another—just like the peasants just now, they ran away when they saw them, and they didn’t even have the courage to fight.

This is understandable. After all, the peasants just want to burn the land deeds and debt contracts in the hands of the noble landlords, and take advantage of the chaos. No one wants to die under the guns of well-trained troops.

Charlie didn't want to kill them all. Killing them would be a waste of ammunition, and the gains outweighed the losses, but when he encountered the kind of armed peasants with large and small bags of loot, he would not be soft-hearted. The timid peasants ran away, and the spoils they left behind became Charlie's spoils.

So in less than an hour since he set off, his system assets have increased from 850 gold coins to 1545 gold coins.

Although it is less, it is better than nothing.

At first, Charlie didn't intend to follow Junio's advice and go to the North District to protect the high-ranking nobles, because in his opinion it would not do him much good, but his staff captain Pa Siller persuaded him: no matter what. In which direction the domestic situation will develop in the future, the forces of the old aristocracy will not be devastated by this riot, as long as Charles protects the family members of the old aristocracy in the chaos, and when the riot subsides, he will also can be rewarded handsomely.

Siller didn't know what Charlie's details were. He honestly told Charlie the best option at the moment, and after some thought, Charlie decided to adopt his suggestion.

Not to mention, Charlie's family is in the aristocratic area, where there are his mother and other family members. After he goes back, he can also use the family's wealth to relieve the trouble of military expenses. In addition, Schiller's idea is correct. If Charlie can protect the families of various nobles under the attack of the mob, no matter who the future monarch is, he can get the old nobles' repayment.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Charlie was not ready to march in the dark, so he took the army to a nearby village and spent the first night after the riot there.

This night was undoubtedly very long for some people. After a day of "carnival", most of the citizens of Ankerton City were exhausted and returned to their homes to sleep one after another. During the day, it was still very lively and noisy. In the Heroes' Square, only the renegade Second Brigade and the Santos Party Organization's Workers Commandos are still besieging the Sona Palace.

In the small building outside the square that was set as a temporary stronghold by the Santos Party, the core members of the party held a meeting again. Although they could still see a little tiredness in their eyebrows, the excitement of breaking the palace made them completely tired. , There was a lot of discussion around the map of Ankerton, which was circled in red.

Through the lighting of the kerosene lamp on the table, it can be found that the deputy Sandy was not sent out among these people.

"Sandy and Belllan have already taken some soldiers to the North District, and are ready to invade the noble district tomorrow and take down all the families of the old nobles. Once we take them, we can rely on these hostages and those army generals. negotiation."

"Acker, do we really want the nobles to enter the House of Representatives? I'm afraid they will try to restore the monarchy, and our efforts will be in vain."

"Only if the nobles have power will they be willing to support us." Santos explained to the party members who asked the question: "Of course, in order to avoid restoration, in the future I will propose that the regulations prohibiting the monarchy be incorporated into the constitution. in."

"What will King Loren and his royal family do?" someone asked.

"Confiscation of property, deportation!"

Santos replied without hesitation, and at the end, he added: "We can't execute the monarch, this will only stimulate other monarchs in the Marnes continent. After all, very few monarchs in history will be executed. If we set a precedent , is likely to become the enemy of the monarchy of the entire continent~www.wuxiamtl.com~ He just finished speaking, at this moment, the door was suddenly knocked, and then the door was opened from the outside, and the guards left Come in and report:

"Leader, the people we sent to the Southern District brought back a message."

As he said that, he glanced at the back, and a man dressed as a civilian walked in quickly. He took off the hat on his head, saluted, and said:

"Your Excellency Santos, and other gentlemen, the Royal Military Academy in the Southern District is still under the control of the King's Army. We tried to get close and were shot back by the soldiers on the wall."

"Oh? There are still people guarding the Military Academy. How many guards are there?" a party member asked.

"It doesn't look like much. Except for the original guards, the other soldiers seem to be the routed soldiers of the second brigade that had been scattered earlier." important information.

"The armed peasants in the suburbs reported an important news. An infantry regiment left the city from the military academy, marched in the suburbs, and routed many armed peasants who had gathered... Well, the soldiers of that regiment were all wearing cadets. uniform, no cap, and a cavalry of twenty men."

After he finished speaking, the expressions of several party members suddenly changed, and they all looked at Santos on the main seat, who was also a little puzzled and said, "Could it be that someone gathered the students in the military academy and formed an infantry regiment. ? If that's the case, that's not surprising."

When the words were over, he waved his hand to let the person and the guards back together, and when the door was closed, he said to the party members: "It seems that we have more obstacles, I have a hunch that the infantry regiment will definitely give it to the party members. We got into trouble."

"A lot of trouble."
