Chapter 395: Disorderly Riot, Orderly Revolution
Revolution is undoubtedly the violent activity of one class overthrowing another.
But all people understand the revolution as disorderly, unorganized, and undisciplined.
There is no doubt that it was like this in the beginning.
However, when the revolutionary army has developed to the point where it has now, when the means of revolution have entered into induction, summarization, data collation, and storytelling, it is no longer the extensive mode at the beginning.
When the fifteen young men arrived at the gathering place, they immediately began to line up to distribute the equipment.
In the era of firearms and pirates, the advantage of armor was meaningless, it was really tasteless, and it was a pity to abandon it, so the army was not equipped with armor, but the clothing still had to be unified.
In the headquarters of the revolutionary army, all the revolutionary troops were uniformly dressed, and the military attachés wore military attache uniforms with different eye colors, which were more conspicuous than their ranks, while civilian officials were more casual, and more relied on the badges worn on their chests to distinguish their identities.
However, civil officials have to go to the grassroots level, and they have to show their faces in front of Leo to report, and they are more used to brush their faces, rather than badges.
When the young men arrive, line up, sign in, and even start to register, if they die, these things will be sent over according to their hometowns or remains, and in the future, if the revolutionary army can really establish a Datong world, then their names will be engraved on the stone tablet, and they will rest with the country and live forever.
This roster is very important, so it is kept by the officers of the Revolutionary Army from the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army.
When the book was finished, they began to prepare for the attack.
The internal structure of the revolutionary army is relatively chaotic, and the reason is that there are many people, and the headquarters of the revolutionary army can still maintain a certain organizational structure, so that these people who only use muskets can withdraw from the battle sequence, and let the non-commissioned officers of the Navy Type 6 go up to use as the backbone of the battle, but after coming to the branch, the use of muskets alone can bring powerful lethality to ordinary people, so these "backward production capacity" naturally began to transfer to the revolutionary army of the branch.
It is worth mentioning that things such as wind shells or flame shells were still too slow to produce after all, and the cycle was too long, and they were converted to light artillery or sailing power systems, and were eliminated from the combat sequence of musket weapons.
The new musket is very close to the modern musket, using the standard scheme of the Garand rifle, the barrel is very short, the accuracy is very high, semi-automatic, the magazine feeds, simple and reliable, the total load of fifteen rounds, lying or semi-squat shooting has very good accuracy, and it also has good performance in trenches and cities.
The bullet follows a similar design in Leo's world, with pointed bullets, large penetrations, granular gunpowder, and finally a bucky bullet formula used to replace Thundermercury.
The world of physics and chemistry is a mess, but it has its own unique scientific and technological fields.
For example, Frankie's Devouring Fruit Metal, such as Bucky's own Bucky Bomb, and a few other strange things.
In short, relying on these production capacities, the revolutionary army has reached the leading level in the whole world in terms of musket technology, and it is easy to crush those rotten king's armies.
But even so, they still had no intention of going head-to-head, but after working carefully for more than a year and gathering many core backbones, they finally planned to start marching towards the royal city.
Leo once mentioned in the daily newspaper of the Revolutionary Army, oh no, the World Economic News, that the most fatal point of the feudal dynasty is that it needs the king's blood as a bond and connection, and the king constantly strengthens his authority and prestige for his children, and even uses superstition to confuse ordinary people into believing that their rights are granted by God and are orthodox.
Finally, to achieve the ultimate goal of a series of eternal rivers.
But this is precisely the biggest weakness of the feudal dynasty.
Especially when the emperor dies suddenly, prematurely, leaving behind a successor who is not a minor to qualify, this kind of problem reaches a climax: if you are a god-granted ruler, then why did you die early, is it because you have angered God? Or does God think you don't deserve that position?
If there is another young minister, let the minister be unhappy to kill the lord and replace him, this kind of doubt will be even greater.
If your right comes from the approval of God, but the minister can easily kill you and replace you with another emperor, then what does the minister represent?
What the ministers do, I can't do?
It would be even more ridiculous if the emperor died at the hands of some small person.
Therefore, Leo pointed out that the biggest weakness of the feudal king is the king himself, and if you want to eliminate the king's rule, you don't need any discernment, you just need to kill the king.
In ancient times, it was very difficult to kill a king, because the king's body was stacked with several layers of guards, which in itself was an effective means of isolation.
A large number of Assassins could not even find out where the emperor lived in the palace if they did not have the internal support of the powerful ministers.
But when the peak of force came to the upper limit of One Piece, when the attack distance of the gunpowder weapon was a hundred meters away, the vulnerability of the emperor himself was exposed.
In the past, the revolutionary army wanted to gain a broad mass base, so there was no such thing as directly assassinating the emperor, and then the country was messed up by the big nobles, and the commoners who had lost the most basic order still remembered what was good before the emperor's death, and even resented the revolutionary army in turn.
This is not going to happen.
The revolutionary army would not do such a stupid thing.
But now, for other political aims and means, the branch revolutionary army had to fight this battle without being fully prepared, and since it had already been done, Leo naturally gave an order once and for all: not only the king should be killed directly, but even the local nobles should not let go, directly destroy the local grassroots order, and then establish a system of people's representation according to what has been learned in the textbooks.
Support new leaders from among the leaders of the local revolutionary army, select representatives from the local prestige of the common people to establish a system of civil self-government, in addition to tax revenue, to maintain the orderly operation of the local area, the worst order is better than no order, and as long as you have soldiers, you have the ability to establish order from the beginning.
More than 300 young men walked in orderly steps towards the royal city, and when they passed the mountain of garbage outside the city, which had burned to the ground and flourished again in about ten years.
A total of four or five hundred people, like a gang of beggars, stood up silently and walked in.
