Chapter 8: The Augst Uprising and the Juxtaposition of the Regime
In the process of fighting against the beast clan, Empress Yuanli was dissatisfied by the people, because they felt that when Empress Yuanyao declared war on the eleven countries, even if they felt afraid, it also made the dignity of the Elven nation of Aviaya not be insulted. Although the land was ceded and the peace was sued, it was not cowardice, it was for the respite of the future war. Be prepared. However, among the kings after the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the dynasty was chaotic, corruption was rampant, and the work of government departments in various regions was corrupt. The demise of the Avia fleet is a good example of this.
Empress Yuanli's policy was a little better than that of her predecessor. But it's not much better, it's nothing more than letting the Avia dynasty struggle to the death.
The court......
Charleston (Commander of the Avia Fleet): "Your Majesty, several warships of the Orcs, your Majesty must already know about them. Recently, the Elmona Empire was preparing to sell a warship, which is a fast warship that can be used to evade enemy heavy artillery fire. ”
"How much?" Empress Yuanli hurriedly asked.
"Not much, a million pieces of silver." Charleston said.
Empress Yuanli seemed to be impatient. Question: "Is it time for the detachment of the Avia fleet, which is the Cleveland fleet in the Cleveland Ocean, to come out and yoke?" You know, before my Aviaa Empire had the Avia fleet, the Cleveland fleet was just as powerful. Amaze the world. ”
Charleston: "Your Majesty, the Cleveland fleet has not been replaced with new weapons since its glory days, and most of the weapons are nearing the end of their service life. Especially the two capital ships, in another year, will be scrapped. The speed is not as fast as before. In the event of a real battle, the whole fleet will have to slow down and wait for the two capital ships. This would be a drag on its combat prowess, coupled with a long lack of training for members of its fleet. What is the difference between a lack of actual combat experience, so that they are sent to battle, and sending them to death? It's better to accumulate troops, buy that fast ship, and annihilate the fleet of the beasts. Raise the prestige of the Avias! ”
Empress Yuanli thought for a while: "No, now the Avia Dynasty can't even build its own ship?" Empress Yuanli smiled: "Alas, then I want to make others unable to earn their own money." Isn't it just a fast ship? Retreat! ”
"Your Majesty~Majesty~Might~Mart~!"
Everyone searched and left the main hall. In the end, Charleston sent several letters, all of which were rejected. In desperation, he committed suicide at home. Before he died, he wrote letters admonishing future generations. Most of them are tutors. A generation of loyal ministers "left" like this.
The Taiping, the Shenzhou, two orc warships, sailed towards the waters of the Elmona Empire. Pick up the fast warship they just bought. It turned out that the orcs had bought the ship. And named it the Morgan.
At the same time, during the Cold War, the Ark, the armored battleship of the Orcs, was launched into service. At the same time, the chaos inside and outside the court of Avia became a pot of porridge. Because they all supported Charleston's statement, but didn't have the courage to express it. Empress Yuanli was also very anxious, but she couldn't help it, so she blamed herself for being stingy for a while, and she couldn't even afford a warship in the dignified Avia Dynasty, which was really a shame. He came to the ancestral hall, and in front of the emperors, she wept bitterly. He bowed to his ancestors again and again, but he never wanted to get up. The ministers could not persuade them. Finally, an urgent order came. The Combined Beast Fleet engages in a head-to-head battle with the Cleveland Fleet in the Star Dragon Ocean. When Empress Yuanli heard this, she immediately sat down on the ground. The two ministers stepped forward to help, and Empress Yuanli was helped into a sedan chair and went to Wanxuan Palace. At this time, in the upright winter, the snow outside the main hall and the temple of the gods was whiter and colder than usual. In the rest of the region, some officials thought it was a bad omen, and the evil star of the "Celestial Empire" was coming.
The battle at sea failed, and the Cleveland fleet fled to the harbor of Xinglong to recuperate. The Combined Fleet of Orcs saw that their opponents had fled and retreated. However, the Cleveland fleet suffered heavy damage. None of the ships in the orc combined fleet were injured. The news spread across Avia. And so, the whole country was furious. Amir, the governor of the economic city of Erquicla, led his men and the armies of several surrounding cities to the north, killing the gods and tribes. Such a situation of internal strife and foreign war not only shook the foundation of the Avia's rule, but also severely constrained its economy. Armies from all walks of life also rose up one after another, gathered together, known as a million heroes, and attacked the temple of the gods. Empress Yuan Yao mobilized all the troops that could be mobilized from the divine hall, and there were only two or three million people. Fight back. Due to the fact that the situation is not very good, there are now rebels making trouble. Empress Yuanli died of illness that day and passed the throne to her younger brother Yuan Hao. At this time, Yuan Hao was young. But such a mess, he himself is also very difficult, whether to deal with foreign enemies first, or to suppress the rebel army first. At this time, a minister proposed that using the enemy's sword to kill the enemy is simply to use the power of the beasts to suppress the rebel army, and finally counterattack by surprise. Yuan Hao accepted this suggestion, but it was the orcs who openly announced that they had renounced their aggression against Avia. The reason is that Avia's territory is vast, and I don't know how long the front can be stretched when we fight, and the economy will be dragged down. Therefore, the aggression against Avia was abandoned. On the other hand, they feared that the rebels and the government forces would jointly carry out a counterattack against their aggression, so they resolutely gave up in order not to cause unnecessary casualties.
This made Yuan Hao very happy. Because in this way, it is possible to suppress the rebel army wholeheartedly. Then rule. However, he underestimated Amir's rebel army. Soon, the army was in the city. A fierce attack was launched on the defenders. Until the main gate, Luotianmen, was breached, and then Yuan Hao fled from the remaining three gates with the remnants. At this moment, the temple of the gods became the ruling center of the new regime. Amir's territory occupies a quarter of the elven continent, and in the temple of the gods, Amir changed the name of the country to Sheng, and the history is called "Sheng Dynasty".
Yuan Hao went north to Lingcheng, where the government of North Avia was established. At this time, the Moorish federal regime emerged in the southeast, which was made up of five small independent regions. It is ruled by five supreme rulers. In the far north, the middle states of the Phanath Empire appeared. The territory occupies about three-eighths of the Elven Continent. These regimes surrounded North Avia, and in the decades that followed, there was constant fighting. There are also often foreign powers involved. But they were still driven out by the coalition of these divided regimes. The second period of the Eight Kingdoms began.
