It was only now, when he was thoroughly enraged by these stupid humans, that he understood what his emperor meant. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIf grace cannot be remembered, then let them know with suffering. This is the so-called human being, if others are kind to them, they will forget it every minute. On the contrary, if you beat them up, you can't say that you will remember them for the rest of your life.

So, from a certain point of view, man is really a very cheap creature.

It was as if now, the Norman Empire gave them a standard of living equivalent to the imperial standard. The city of Paris was built no worse than other cities of the Empire. Smooth roads, houses, residential areas, high city walls, and all kinds of public facilities are readily available. There are also mills that can provide high-quality flour, bakeries that bake high-quality bread. Various handicraft industries also became developed. Promotes commerce. As a result, both the citizens of Paris and the peasants outside Paris have improved their living standards by a large margin.

However, these Parisians don't seem to appreciate it. As if the Normans did this as a matter of course. At the same time, after the environment helplessly deteriorated, he held a grudge against the central political axe of the Norman Empire. In the situation of the Black Death, the sluggishness of industry and commerce, and the rampant mob outside the city, it was felt that these were the mistakes of the Norman Empire and Norman Yellow.

In short, to sum it up, this is it: something good happens and Lao Tzu doesn't remember you, that's what you should do. If something bad happens, it must be you, even if it has nothing to do with you. Political axe, leader, it is such a thankless and pathetic existence that Qianfu refers to.

"The Lord is really ...... It's worth sympathy. Therefore, as subordinates, we must also work hard to share the worries of the lord. ”

General Farr thought so, and then ordered the siege of the city as soon as possible. The 20,000-strong army left the southern gate empty, and laid an ambush of 2,000 hussars on the roads there. Although it is just a very simple strategy to circumvent three and lack one. But General Farr didn't think that the fools of the world could see such a ploy - of course, it wouldn't be a big deal even if they did. Because the other three city gates are also equipped with sufficient troops.

With the most garrisoned new army, blocking the roads on the other three sides of Paris. Elite Norman knights, heavy crossbowmen who were a long-range blocking force, were then evenly distributed. The rest, the Norman infantry, the Norman assault infantry, and the longbowmen, who were the main attacking force, were assigned to the north flank.

And, of course, artillery.

Well, that's right, the powerful, cutting-edge twenty-four-pounder infantry gun, the most powerful gunpowder weapon in the world, five in all.

These jet-black and hideous, pure steel, through a special casting method, directly cast as a whole artillery, has an amazing power. A total of five cannons, a volley, smashed the gates of the trembling Parisians. Immediately afterward, the Norman soldiers roared loudly, and with the help of the Norse wolf's skill, they surpassed their usual best - they either pushed the ladder cart forward, or rushed straight towards the city gates. Charge bravely under the cover of a rain of longbows and arrows, as well as artillery bombardment.

"This, this, this ......" At the head of the city, the faces of the citizens of Paris turned pale. At that time, there were quite a few people who were very unrestrained, put down their rudimentary weapons in their hands, raised their hands and prepared to surrender. And the people next to them did the same. Either they clasped their heads and squatted on defense, or shouted for surrender - after all, they were "citizens", ordinary people who could not even be compared to the mob - although this kind of conscription would also play a role in the defense of the city. But it also depends on the state.

The so-called "autonomous city-state of Paris" has neither too clever politicians, nor enthusiastic leaders who urge people to pee, nor are there calm and infectious peerless generals. What they have is a bunch of careerists, speculators, and middle two idiots. A bunch of arrogant idiots who claim to be members of the Supreme Council. Therefore, it is completely impossible to mobilize the active surnames of the citizens.

And they are not against the weak and incompetent remnants of the defeated army, nor the indiscriminate killing of the psychotic (before they realize it). Therefore, it will not give them the consciousness of fighting a good fight, or "if you don't resist, you will die, why don't you understand?!". Not to mention the fact that it was their original "motherland" that came to fight, the Norman army that came to "save" them.

The shameless and skinless efforts of the Diao people came out, but it was very unbearable. The citizens of Paris, who had been shouting slogans such as "Tyrant get out!" and "Paris is the Paris of Parisians!" changed their tune.

"Egil. Long live Skadragrímsson the Great!", "A warm welcome to the Norman soldiers!". That's pretty much it.

However, although their shouts are loud, their expressions are very vivid. There were even those who had the courage to approach the Norman soldiers who had stormed into the city or climbed the walls with a flattering smile. Nodding his head and saying that he is a great good citizen-but.

The answer given to them is nothing more than a sharp tomahawk.

A Norman infantry centurion who rushed to the front, with a hideous face, wiped away the blood gushing out of the victims. Then he took his tomahawk and continued to charge.

"Attack! Attack!!Kill all the rebels in the city! Your Majesty's order, slaughter the city! Kill all the women and children, kill them all!!Leave no !! behind."

With such a cruel and arrogant voice sounded. All the inhabitants of Paris have been condemned to their fate. The flattering smile was replaced by a look of fear. The words of allegiance that had just been spoken were replaced by piercing screams. The soldiers of the Norman Empire went on a slaughter, slaughter, slaughter. With a group of professional soldiers dressed in well-dressed plate armor and armed with sharp axes, they slaughtered a group of citizens who had no will to resist, let alone the ability to resist.

The wails were loud and the blood flowed like rivers. The remaining citizens did not dare to resist and immediately fled towards the city. As a result, the entire northern wall of the city collapsed.

"It's over, it's over—I shouldn't have listened to that bastard if I knew I wouldn't have done it!!Why didn't the Normans lose strength during the plague?!What troops wouldn't have breached the defenses of Paris?!Nothing that had been sent out would have been impossible to break through the defenses of Paris—all bullshit!" Originally, it was the administrative residence of the mayor appointed by the Norman emperor. For a while, however, it was occupied by the leaders of the citizens of Paris, the aforementioned incompetent careerists, speculators, and middle school leaders.

originally thought that he could take advantage of the troubled times to get a foundation. and even the establishment of the state. Become the true ruler of the city. But I didn't expect it. The end result is guillotine.

When they heard that the Norman army had breached the city, most of them panicked. One by one, they quarreled with each other and blamed each other. At the same time, they desperately prayed that one of them would come up with an idea. At the same time, he was ready to betray anyone......

"Isn't it already obvious that the situation is going on?" In the most conspicuous place in the crowd. The cheerful and sunny young man, who was still calm, smiled. I secretly sighed in my heart: "What a bunch of stupid people." ”

Whenever one of these fellows is seen, this man, who has gone from being a small pickpocket on the streets of Paris, has in a few years become the boss of a peripheral gang of the Norman intelligence organization, and even a young man who faintly considers himself the underground ruler of Paris, he will have a great sense of superiority.

Success, success, and success. The successes gave him a burst of self-confidence. And the ingenious and insidious plans, as well as the ruthless deeds, also earned him a large number of loyal thugs and the awe of the people. In fact, this time Paris was able to succeed in "reading", and this person contributed a lot.

If it weren't for him, these careerists and speculators wouldn't have been able to connect them privately. It will be destroyed by the Norman intelligence system, which in this case is already weakened without foreign aid, because even an emaciated tiger is much stronger than a cat.

Unlike those whom he considered stupid, this young gang leader had already thought of a way out from the very beginning. And when he said this, so that the surrounding "companions" holding "dead horses as live horse doctors" noticed, and excitedly urged him, asking him if he had any good ideas, the young man smiled proudly and snapped his fingers.

Immediately afterward, a large number of gangsters, assassins, and killers who were lying in ambush outside rushed in. Some of them protected the young man. Others, on the other hand, rushed to the side of the other councillors and forced them with weapons not to move.

"What the hell are you going to do?!Do you want to kill us in exchange for the tyrant's forgiveness?!naïve!"Seeing this man do such an act, some people were speechless in surprise. Others yelled to get him to change his mind.

What he gets, however, is a cold ridicule.

"You idiot! Get your men out of here! I can forget the insult you did to me! As long as you can break out of the city and run to Aquitaine in the south—"

The self-proclaimed speaker, one of the great nobles in Paris, and at the same time the father-in-law of the young man, who married one of his adopted daughters to the young man, was both a woo and a surveillance. He had thought that the young man was just a useful pawn for him. Therefore, the betrayal of the chess pieces is particularly exciting.

When he saw the young man's mocking face, he cried out to the young man for a change of heart. However, all I got was ridicule.

"What are you laughing at?!" the Speaker's heart sank more and more. Finally, I couldn't help shouting.
