Chapter 5 The War in Europe
On June 11, 2101, other book friends are reading: Xiao Zhicheng Immortal Dao's latest chapter
Under the Empire, about one-third of Europe was already at war.
This part of the planet is probably home to some of the most warlike people in the human world. From the crusades under the pretext of religion in the late Middle Ages, to the thirty-year anti-Habsburg war that also evolved from a religious struggle in the seventeenth century, to the global colonial expansion and colonial struggle at the end of the nineteenth century.
The genes of plunder are deeply planted in this land, and no matter how loudly the arguments of "spreading religion" or "granting civilization" are sung, after stripping away the hypocrisy, the invasion of distant colonies and the internal strife of European princes are only motivated by political contradictions and territorial divisions.
In Germany during World War II, there was a man who pushed things to the limit. I think his ambition may have been to unify this earth, but he failed, was crucified in the name of justice, and was forever reviled by the world, regarded as a beast, a tyrant, and a victim of the victors as they wrote history. Looking back, he wasn't that different. The British Empire once expanded to a quarter of the world, France dominated Europe under Louis XIV, and history cycled through killing and conflict, and war was the strongest force to move the times.
And war must have its dark side, and stories like "Luàn Shimei" are very far away from ordinary people, so far that they don't need to be imagined at all. The suffering of the people and the fragility of their lives are the most real and terrifying aspects of war.
Man is a terrible creature, a sinful creature who, when they take up arms and gain power, will do things that go far beyond their instincts. burning, looting, whipping, forcible jiān, massacre...... If it is an undisciplined thug, it is basically no different from a bandit. Even a well-trained regular army may not be able to prevent these things from happening.
War drives people crazy, and in that environment, humanity will be annihilated, civilization will be trampled on, and life will wither. When war comes, the most pitiful thing will always be the people, and many of them will be forced to take up arms. They will inflict the misfortune and hatred they have suffered on the enemy a thousand times over.
Someone once said something like this: people are not wrong, what is wrong is war, college entrance examination champion TXT download. But I think there is nothing wrong with war, it is people who are wrong. Even if robots and humans go to war one day, it will never be more brutal than a fight between humans.
The gears of time are moving, human history and civilization are progressing, and by the twenty-second century, the impact of war on civilians has gradually faded. In the period after the unification of the empire, with the collective decline of religion and the unified planning policy of the planet's population, the concept of racial and ethnic differences has basically disappeared in people's minds after a hundred years. The development of technology has also made it very rare for soldiers to engage with each other in close combat.
The massacre of civilians is something that no one would do nowadays, and if the commander of any team gives such an order, ninety percent of them may be considered to be mentally ill or psychopathic, and the possibility of mutiny is relatively high. However, it is inevitable that people will be bō and so on on when they are on the battlefield.

In mid-June, the European theater was in full swing.
A few months ago, the Iron Commandment sent troops from Guanzhi County and Red Lion County at the same time, and at this stage, it has basically stabilized the control of the media and military and political offices in the entire territory of these two counties, and has taken over the local security management obligations and administrative powers.
The county of Oak, located in the north of the Red Lion County, and the cities of Tabes and Bayonne in the south, were also in danger, becoming the front line of the entire European battlefield during this period.
On the other front, the main force of the Crown County of the Iron Commandment and the HL European Headquarters Army of Crystal County fell into a stalemate stage of confrontation, and the strong strength of the HL side of Crystal County also protected the eastern front of Oak County from being breached.
It can be said that at this moment, the eyes of the whole of Europe, and even the world, are looking at the two small cities in the southwest of Oak County. Once breached, the southern part of Oak County will soon be controlled by the Iron Order, and their two forces of Red Lion County and Crown County will be able to merge to the southeast of Oak County. The Empire will have to transfer troops from all over Europe to the north of Crystal County and Oak County for defense, and the battlefield of the two armies facing each other head-on will expand, and the battle line will be very long.
At that time, the scale of this war will escalate, the nature will change, and other book lovers are watching: Pretty Girls. What started as a rebellion within two European counties developed into a large-scale war between two military forces throughout Western Europe.
Previously, in Africa, the Yanwu Union had taken three or four small counties, and South Africa had become a real area of fall for the empire, while the largest dragon county in Asia, including the southern part of Twin Eagle County, was also attacked by the White Lightning Force and the Iron Commandment Coalition Army, and gradually had a tendency to be difficult to control.
If this fighting in Europe escalates, it will undoubtedly turn into an all-out war on a world scale. If the war faced by the empire ends in failure, then even if the remaining forces of the empire can sit on the final line of defense of Tiandu, the planet is likely to return to an era of multinational division, considering the collective desire of the people, the first country to perish at that time can only be the empire.
There are also people in the upper echelons of the empire who have seen the changes in the situation, but unfortunately, their voices have not yet become mainstream. In the imperial court, there are too many people who are wise enough to protect themselves, and there are still many self-deceiving people, who think that the rebellions in various places will be quelled one after another in a few months at most, and there is no need to bother at all.
And the nobles and royal families everywhere seem to have too much confidence in the empire, and even the magnates of the Red Lion County and the Crown County only left these two counties after the war began, and fled to other counties to continue their original lives. As for those who are unfortunately arrested, they naturally cannot escape the "trial" of the Iron Commandment, and of course most of them end in the death penalty. Fortunately, in this year, there was no beheading of the nine clans and Zhulian, and the female dependents of the aristocratic families would not be sent to be prostitutes, and the young sons would be taken into exile and so on.
This is a kind of progress, a manifestation of the political maturity of the rebel group, whether it is the Yanwu Alliance, the Freedom Front, the Iron Commandment, as long as it is a party that can become a climate, it is quite sensitive to its own image among the people. Even if many of the things they did during their activities in the shadows resembled terrorists, during the occupation period, the administration must be strict, and there must not be the slightest sign of the Empire.
This is the danger signal of the rebellion. In the past, there was a guy who claimed to be the second son of God, and after pulling up a team and laying down a little bit of land, his wife alone robbed nearly 100 of them; there was also a guy who was not much better than him, and he successfully entered Beijing and became the emperor for one day, and after doing a lot of bandit business, he even burned down the palace before running away. People like this are not terrible, with their strength, they are not enough to sit in the world, and other book lovers are watching: Weifu reads in all directions.
However, today's resistance organizations have learned a lot of experience from their predecessors in all aspects of military and political affairs, and this is not a mud tuǐzi grabbing money, food, and women, but an organized, disciplined, and programmatic way to win over the people's hearts, seize territory, and compete with the empire. For this reason alone, even if there is only one force making trouble, it is enough to attract attention, not to mention that there are many such organizations in the world now.
It can be seen that today's empire, as Tianyi said, is about to die, ** to the bone marrow, a tea fairy, a drunken lord, what can be done?
............
On the occasion of this eventful autumn, Tianyi came to Europe.
He took the fake ID made by Zuo Dao, and the accountant squeezed tens of thousands of yuan, bought a ticket from Macau to Kabul, and transferred from there to Paris, north of Oak County.
Even though the southern part of Oak County has become a battlefield, it is still the beautiful hu, fashionable, flashy, and expensive......
Walking on the street, there is still a scene of leveling in front of me.
However, Tianyi's luck doesn't seem to be good, and when he walks out of the airport, it is raining.
He had no umbrella, not even luggage, and the taxi drivers at the door all looked away from the suspiciously looking man in black drenched in the rain.
After looking for a long time, he managed to get into a car, only to be met with a "Hey, man, look at you getting the seat in the back wet!"
More than half an hour later, Tianyi came to the door of a relatively ordinary hotel in the city.
Along the way, Tianyi kept thinking about whether to kill the driver, drive the car to the wilderness to dispose of the body, and then only need to find a place to disguise the license plate, and the next day he can walk around the city as a taxi driver.
But looking at the wedding ring on the driver's finger and the childish ornament on his windshield, Tianyi understood that this guy had a wife and children, and dragged his family with him, so Tianyi gave up, he knew that letting this bastard live was the real torture, and other book friends were reading: Hanshu after the Twenty-fifth History.
"No need to look for it. Tianyi gave him a big ticket, stepped out of the car, slammed the taxi door, and hurriedly got under the canopy at the entrance of the hotel.
"Thanks, man. The driver thanked him, stepped on the accelerator and left.
Tianyi muttered in a low voice: "It's better for you to die......"
After taking a few steps forward, the doorman who greeted him at the door pushed open the door for Tianyi: "Do you need me to help you get your luggage, sir?"
"Look...... "Tianyi was wet from head to toe, and his hands were empty.
A few minutes later, he came to the front desk and opened a decent suite, and then the doorman took Tianyi into the elevator and walked all the way to the room.
After opening the door for him, he said, "If you have any instructions, you can pick up the internal phone and dial 1 to get to the front desk." ”
"Oh. ”
"Drinks and snacks in the freezer are available for an additional fee, as are there an additional charge for 'special' TV shows, and if you want to make an outside call, please dial 0, of course, for an additional fee. ”
"Oh. ”
"If you need me to buy something for you, you can make a list......"
"Take this. Tianyi stuffed a large bill into his hand: "Shut up and get out." ”
Na Xu immediately stopped being wordy, and said with a smile: "Welcome to the Dolphin Hotel, I wish you a pleasant stay." ”
Before he finished speaking, Tianyi threw the door shut with one hand and said to the door panel: "You go to die......
