Chapter 30: Freedom Is Only Faith

The city of Tinori, originally the capital of the star Viina, means "flower" in the Viyna language.

It was originally an extremely prosperous metropolis, and its population was close to 50 million at its peak. Except for a part of the protective fence that still retains its former shadows, the rest of the walls are in tatters.

The population has also dropped to less than three million. The outskirts of the city have been destroyed by the war with the rebels. The current city of Tinori is only a large gathering place compared to the past.

Civilization has disappeared, and industrial manufacturing has regressed to a primitive state, and in addition to the necessary weapons, it is basically impossible to manufacture even some basic daily necessities.

However, the time of the conquest and slavery is not long, and there are still many remnants of civilization, and the people of Tinori City can barely survive.

On a high ground in the city of Tinori was an ancient royal palace in the past, and after the civilization developed to a certain extent, the federal system replaced the imperial system, and it became the federal capital. Now the government is separated from each other, and it becomes the so-called mayor's office of the city of Tinori.

Führer Tisley is now ranting in the mayor's office, having gone from president in name to mayor of Tinori in the real sense of the word.

"These damned rebels have reduced the entire planet to ruins. The blood-sucking slave traders were just a few slaves, and these guys killed hundreds of millions of people. ”

"Now it's hard to get together even the tens of thousands of people that the slave traders want. What are they trying to do, do they want to exterminate the people of Vijna? ”

Then, in a fit of rage, he grabbed the cup on the table and threw it on the ground. The crackling sound silenced several of the guards and secretaries in the room.

"How's the search team going?"

"There's no more news yet, almost all the people around are gone, and most of the rest are in rebel-controlled areas."

"These damn rebels have taken possession of the area outside the city. I don't know what these slave traders want underage girls to do, aren't these all low-value slaves? ”

Tishley kept muttering.

Just then, a soldier hurriedly ran in from outside.

"Report to the Führer, three starships have descended on the city."

"What? Didn't they just leave? How did it come back again. ”

Tithri's body shook visibly, and he asked the secretary, "Now that we haven't finished collecting slaves, what should we do?" What to do? ”

"Lord Führer, if it really doesn't work, let's choose a group from the population of the city?" A man with a monkey's cheek next to him suggested.

"The population of the city?" Tisley muttered, clearly reluctant.

"Your Excellency, if we can't collect the slaves we need, we'll be treated as slaves." The man said cautiously.

Although reason tells Tishley that the consequences of doing so will be terrible, and he is not stupid, he is helpless in the face of the current situation. With a long sigh, Tithry no longer hesitated, and ordered: "Let people search the city immediately, and all the girls who meet the requirements will be collected and sent to the square in front of the barracks to wait for the slave traders." ”

After saying this, Tithry himself seemed to lose his strength.

Once such a thing is done, the hearts of the people in the city will be scattered, and how can they rule? If there is chaos in the city, the loss of the city will become worthless, either defeated by the rebels or beaten to death by the angry citizens.

"No, I'm going to the barracks, it's not safe here."

Thinking of this, Tithry hurriedly ordered the personnel to prepare the vehicle and panic with the beauties and belongings he had plundered

of transferred to the barracks.

Three massive warships hovered about two kilometers above Tinori, and the sunlight cast huge shadows on the ground through them.

Qin Baiyu did not attack immediately, after all, this was to occupy, not directly bombard and damage. So he centered on the Killer, with the Enchantress holding the southern entrance to Tiñori and the Phantom guarding the back of the city. The coordinated 100 miniature warships carried 5,000 newly trained soldiers on both flanks of the Killer, and the Killer carried 2,000 original legionnaires as the main star-landing combat personnel.

According to Gu Ertok's guidance, Qin Baiyu had already understood the focus of this operation, the garrison camps to the south and north of the city.

Each camp now has 20,000 elite soldiers. This was the last remaining elite force on the planet Viyuna, and was kept in Tinori by Tithri in the name of the state, which was why he was able to steadily occupy and maintain the capital city.

The city of Tinori, the original capital city, has nearly 5,000 police and security guards to maintain law and order. Qin Baiyu didn't look at these personnel, but in order to avoid accidents during the starfall operation, he still assigned a thousand people as a maneuver to deal with this situation.

His order to the 1,000 mobile men was that any armed man who stood in the way of the Legion's battle was to be killed immediately.

The legionnaires, especially the soldiers who came out of the original 17th Mine Star, have now received an extremely high level of training, coupled with excellent equipment, and their ability to judge independently and deal with emergencies is extremely outstanding.

Qin Baiyu deliberately set aside 100 original legionnaires as the core mobility ability, and took 10 miniature attack and airborne warships to patrol the air and deal with emergencies.

Two hours had passed since Qin Baiyu led the battleship to descend into the atmosphere of the Viyuna Star, and during this time, Qin Baiyu was only mobilizing the battleship to occupy a favorable position, and was not in a hurry to land and attack.

Without warships and air power, the star was a lamb to be slaughtered in Qin Baiyu's eyes. The reason why there was no direct attack was because he was worried that this so-called elite would take advantage of the chaos to disperse and escape. That would be very detrimental to the later occupation and administration of the planet.

Tithry had already arrived at the barracks north of Tinori, and was anxiously waiting in a makeshift mansion for his men to collect the girls who met the requirements as slaves.

Although this kind of thing has been done secretly before, but the number is small, it will not attract attention, this time it needs 10,000 beautiful underage girls, which makes Tisley a little embarrassed, this kind of usually low-value personnel, now almost all reduced to the toys of the rich and powerful, or died in the war.

Where are there so many that meet the requirements?

Even though there are millions of people in the city of Tinori, most of these survivors, who are the original inhabitants of the original capital, are also his main supporters. Now that the surrounding cities are in their own hands, they will not even think about providing him with these much-needed slaves.

It is estimated that the slave traders also issued the same number and demands to other cities.

If you do it to the residents of your own city, you will probably become a loner immediately. If there is no one to support him, then he will no longer be a head or mayor. It's all a fluke not to be killed by angry citizens.

But if he didn't do what the slave traders wanted, he was now powerless to resist these invaders, and the original planet had nearly ten starships and five million troops, all of which were crushed in an instant. The power at his disposal now is not enough for a star-battleship to fire several salvos of its main guns.

When the time comes, I am afraid that I will also become a slave. Once people climb to the peak of power, they don't want to die like this, not to mention that these people who are going to be collected and arrested now are not their relatives.

luck

Well, a large number of such girls have been captured through the search teams around the city before, otherwise there will be more trouble for yourself now that there are too many gaps.

Tithry stood in front of the huge window, his mind wandering, and from time to time his eyes looked through the window at the projection of a very large starship in the sky.

He wondered a little in his heart, why didn't the slave trader come down directly this time, was this time left for him to prepare the slaves?

Tithry now regretted that he really shouldn't have taken refuge in these slave traders, but in the face of strong force, he really couldn't raise the idea of resisting.

The sounds of scolding and anguish in the city of Tinori, interspersed with the occasional gunshots, were a clash between the police and the residents who were collecting slaves, after all, no one could watch their daughters being taken and sold into slavery.

The extremely suppressed people finally broke out at this moment, and the violent resistance on the streets gradually increased, and finally converged into a torrent of all-out resistance.

At first, the police could also suppress the resistance by arming, but now with the increase in the number of people who have joined the resistance, the various weapons scattered among the people have also played a role, and the scattered police are immediately at an absolute disadvantage, and they are engulfed by the angry crowd in an instant.

By the time the news reached the barracks and Tishri learned about it, almost all the police had broken down or been killed by the crowd, and the angry crowd was gathering and rushing towards the barracks.

Chaotic and noisy sounds were heard from afar, accompanied by gunshots from time to time. Tithry involuntarily took a step back and looked up at the battleship in the sky.

Aside from the constant movement of numerous small warships, the three giant warships didn't seem to move.

He was hesitating, not knowing what to do, whether he wanted to mobilize the army to suppress the rebellious crowd. Then you will really lose the hearts of the people.

Tithry is not reflecting on the fact that he forcibly snatched someone else's daughter as a slave, but still thinking about the hearts and minds of people and supporters.

"Your Excellency, these rebels are about to storm the barracks."

"The police are almost dead, so you might as well send troops to suppress them. Otherwise these people rush in and we will all be killed. ”

Several of the surrounding staff were trembling and persuading Tithri, including the lewd guy who gave him the idea to collect and rob eligible girls in the city as slaves.

"Freedom! Don't be a slave! ”

"Drive the slave traders out of the star of Pyna."

People are oppressed to the greatest extent and their desire for freedom and security is aroused, stronger than the resistance outside the city, which is after all a threat to themselves, and freedom is no longer a demand, but a powerful belief formed by the unanimous voice of the people.

Freedom is also a kind of faith, an ultimate desire.

The sound outside was louder, louder, and closer. Outside, a sea of people, mixed with all kinds of weapons and robbing the police, was rapidly approaching the barracks.

Tithrie felt depressed for a while, glanced around at these guys around him, and had no choice but to send an army to suppress it.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the largest battleship in the sky rapidly decreasing in altitude, while the two battleships in the north and south directions suddenly made strange gestures, countless secondary cannons stretched out of the hull, and all of them were charging, and the crystal muzzles flashed with a terrifying blue cold light.

There were also hundreds of small warships around, and many of the barrels of the guns were also charged, and the direction was almost all directed towards the city of Tinori, and even the rebellious crowd.

When Tisley saw the direction of the guns, he was immediately frightened, why did these slave traders want to bombard the city of Tinori with their naval guns.
