Chapter 1: The Rise of Professional Poets and the Iron Cage Movement
Lesson 3: The Defeat and Exile of the Insurrection
In the eleventh year of the new calendar of the Iron Cage Dynasty, Bazaro was twenty-three years old, and as the highest priest of Shikharia, the old poet passed everything on to Bazaro, not to Pakli.
But Packley did not complain, yes, because Bazaro was excellent.
Under the leadership of Bazaro, the Shikha religion has gradually encroached on the order of the iron cage, and at present, nearly half of the people have become Shichanian people, either openly or covertly, and Pakli and Bazaro are waiting for an opportunity.
In June of the 11th year, the first winter of the year came in the southern region of Urwan, and the severe cold weather forced the Northern Coalition to suspend its southward movement, and the Southern Alliance was able to take time to further strengthen the suppression of the Iron Cage Dynasty.
The new king was defeated again and again, but he refused to surrender because he knew the rules for betraying the alliance.
And the price of this is that all domestic supplies are given priority to the front-line army to save transportation costs, and all the money saved is invested in conscription.
At this time, the Iron Cage Dynasty was close to the point where there were no soldiers to conscript, and the age limit for conscription was lowered again and again.
"The people should be the masters of this kingdom!!"
Bazaro faced tens of thousands of people of the kingdom without a trace of cowardice, even though he had seen the black-armored soldiers frantically pouring out of the streets in the distance.
"We live in this cruel cage, with food, medicine, and even clothing, have you ever wondered why? Are we born that way? Not! ”
"It's the same race! Why are we inferior? Could it be that the good or bad of this life is also innate? Not! ”
"We want to be free, too! We want to be happy!! ”
The severe cold blocked the southern movement of the Northern Alliance, and also hindered the people's lives, the grain was not harvested because of this sudden freeze, and the Iron Cage Dynasty concentrated materials to supply the army because of the defense of the Southern Alliance's attack, and under the pressure of hunger, the people revolted, this is the first civilian uprising of the Iron Cage Dynasty, which directly shook the authority of the unified class, and was a fuse that made the entire class of people move towards equality.
The First Iron Cage Uprising was huge, spreading rapidly from the Hugh Scarin Plains to the surrounding areas, and soon approached the front line.
When the soldiers learned of the suffering of their relatives in their hometown, they began to get tired of the war, and the Southern Alliance took the opportunity to attack the defense line of the Iron Cage Dynasty in one fell swoop, killing not many enemies, but capturing more than 200,000 soldiers of the Iron Cage Dynasty.
The king was crucified by Parker's sword in front of the statue of the deity in the cathedral, and the people cheered, and Parker became the new king.
Everything seems to be moving in a good direction.
It wasn't until Pakli and Bazzaro found that the flames of the uprising were difficult to extinguish.
The Shikhanian cultists frantically spread the ideas of Bazaro, and the temporary victory of the First Iron Cage Uprising inflated the ambitions of Pakli and Bazaro.
"Bazaro! This is an opportunity! ”
Packley grabbed Bazaro's shoulders excitedly, and he did not have the slightest composure in his middle age.
"It's a dead end......"
The warning of the dying old poet with his last breath was forgotten by Pakza, and even Bazaro was blinded by greed.
The victory of the Iron Cage Rebellion became the dawn of the lower classes of the people of other countries, and the war continued to compress the living space of the lower classes, which made them extremely angry in the face of the nobility.
The flames of the uprising instantly spread across half of the Urwan continent, and even some northern countries were affected.
The fire of the uprising caught many countries off guard, and even the nobles took the opportunity to overthrow the king and declare independence, leaving the entire Confederate in a miasma, and the articles of the Union were almost equivalent to a piece of waste paper.
The Northern Coalition Army noticed this and wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, but they didn't expect to accidentally set fire to their bodies, and the fire of the uprising intensified and was out of control.
The nobles got to the bottom of it and finally noticed the Iron Cage Dynasty.
Pakley was a good lord, but not a great military strategist, and his defenses were vulnerable to the iron heels of the coalition forces.
As the leader of the Shikhanian religion, Bazaro was hated by the ruling class of various countries, and they were eager to kill Bazaro, but that would undoubtedly intensify the resistance of the domestic rebel army, after all, Bazaro was now the nominal leader of all the rebel armies, so the nobles did not dare to act rashly.
After some deliberation, Bazaro was sentenced to exile to a prison on a mining island in the Karen Mahai on the western side of the mainland, where he could not leave the island for the rest of his life, where Bazaro wrote his first epic poem, The Romance of Flowers.
