Chapter 42: The Third Anti-Western Alliance
readx;? Once again, the war began. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
That is, at the same time that the Russian Gothic Empire and the Kingdom of Briton almost divided the entire world in order to form an alliance, that is, when the negotiators of these two countries were very anxious and serious, thinking that they could decide the fate of the whole world, a major event that really affected the fate of the whole world happened.
In a sense, it's like beating the faces of the people involved. The world was reminded that all those involved in the conference had to decide the future fate of this world, and there was another force that could not be bypassed, the country, that is, the Visigothic Republic. This country has formidable and terrifying power.
While the chaos and internal strife, and the beating of each other, sent various political opponents to the guillotine, the country is also consolidating and redividing itself as quickly as possible.
Although in most cases people would never admit it, many of their policies did refer to the political system of the most progressive and seemingly powerful country in the world today, namely the Russian Gothic Empire.
Encourage industry and commerce, encourage the legal system, and in addition to that, there is the formation of government at all levels, and so on. There are even some places that simply copy the things of the empire. Of course, as they said before, they themselves will never admit this.
It remains to be seen whether it will really benefit the country or whether it will be a much bigger and bloated bureaucracy that will make the whole country worse. But at least the Visigoths themselves feel good.
In other words, there are many revolutionaries in this world, and there are no materialist values in the world, but there is a very strange self-confidence that I don't know why, and even very absurd.
Or rather, the feeling of treating a certain doctrine as a panacea, or even religious belief.
Specifically, it is "because my system is what kind of system, so it is absolutely impossible for environmental pollution &**& corruption and malfeasance under my system."
That's it, as if the Visigothic Republic was now in a state of frenzy throughout the country. If anyone dares to say something that is not very revolutionary, they will quickly be regarded as a bastard *** element and thrown on the guillotine without hesitation.
It's like a bunch of crazy people staring at each other, desperately saying some neurotic slogans, and anyone who is normal will understand the level of neurotic slogans like "What the hell are these idiots talking about?
And then as soon as someone questions such a neurotic slogan, the neuropaths will take down this guy in the name of "normal people" or "*** molecules", and then kill this guy without hesitation.
In this fanatical environment, those who are normal people themselves have to pretend to be fanatical neurotics in order to protect themselves, and even say that in order to live a better life, they must be more neurotic than ordinary neurotics.
It's been like this for a long time, because there are so many neurotic things that even normal people start to get weird. Some were directly assimilated into neuropathy, and some said that they still thought they were normal people, but they never dared to show the appearance of normal people. This condition is actually no different from neurosis.
In this situation where everyone is in danger, after killing enough people and having enough blood, people may calm down because of this cruelty, this horror, and then start thinking about why they are doing it. He even said that he regretted it, and then returned to a normal person.
But with fanatics all around, it is only natural that these restored normals still have to maintain their disguises.
It is even said that if this situation is prolonged, it is very likely that something similar to the organization of the men in black in Detective Conan will occur.
"What, you're undercover?"
"What, you're also undercover?"
As a result, the entire organization - or the country - is undercover & normal, but because they don't know the situation of the other party, they disguise themselves as fanatics or something.
It's a very funny thing to think about.
Of course, it's just funny.
If such a thing were to happen in the real world, the people involved wouldn't be amused at all.
It's like the Visigothic Republic now.
After chopping up almost all the nobles, almost all the clergy, the finances of the republic instantly rose to a level that made the previous king, Louis XVI, envious and hateful. At the same time, because there was enough land, the policy of distributing land to the peasants was implemented, and the people who benefited from it were very excited and enthusiastic to participate in the war.
...... Maybe there is something else compared to the messy theories, policies that the people simply can't understand, but the republic gives you land. In an instant, they will show their agitated faces, and then they will be on the side of the revolutionaries of the Republic.
Therefore, in a sense, whether it is the Visigothic Republic this time, or the French Republic in the history of William's previous life, or the vast majority of the two worlds throughout the ages.
It doesn't matter if it's a rebellion, it's a revolution. All in all, the vast majority of the groups want to incite the people to revolt and form an army or something. Then the easiest and most effective way is to make a fuss about the land.
This kind of extremely simple thing, in the era of information explosion, is generally known to children with a little IQ.
"So, fortunately, the empire has already adopted an alternative state ownership of land," William thought to himself.
The empire also spared no effort in cracking down on religious and aristocratic estates. At the same time, while serfdom remained in the vast majority of countries, the agricultural system of the empire was already strong enough. Large-scale collectivized agricultural activity, combined with various agricultural reforms, was enough to make the empire the largest agricultural producer in the world. Today, the Russian Gothic Empire has become the world's largest grain exporter - this was achieved shortly after William came to power.
But in terms of land ownership, the empire is still a little inadequate......
Although William very much wanted to shout about the state ownership of land. But in fact, as the "right way" of the world and the largest landlord class in the world, it is very difficult for William to shout this voice.
At least for the time being, the conditions for state ownership of land are not yet ripe. At least, William did not have the courage to challenge this "order".
That's it for the time being, things about land ownership, and further agrarian reforms in the Empire, and further emancipation of serfs, the transformation of peasants into agricultural workers, and so on, which involves the next reform measures of the Empire, so I won't go into too much detail here.
Now we have to talk about the war that is about to take place at present, no, it should be said that it has already happened. Since almost no country recognizes the Visigothic Republic as a legitimate regime, it stands to reason that all diplomatic activity towards the Visigothic Republic has not been carried out - at least not on the surface - and, of course, negotiations and contacts in the shadows are equally difficult.
Because they are very afraid, the negotiations with the imperialists are enough to bear a *** charge and go to the guillotine. Not to mention the astonishing speed of change of power within such a government. Today, he is still a great revolutionary leader admired by everyone, but tomorrow he will be guillotined for *** crimes, and the conditions and other conditions that he talked about before about peace negotiations will be in vain in an instant.
In this case, negotiations are completely impossible. At least until there is a ruler who can hold up the scene, the whole Visigothic Republic is in chaos like a proliferating cancer cell. There is no leader to be found, it just keeps spreading and proliferating.
Therefore, as a last resort, I can only choose to fight.
Of course, even so, this time the battle was not provoked by the Russian Gothic Empire or the Bretons.
The former is currently recuperating and watching success or failure. After losing nearly 200,000 troops and millions of people, the latter is currently suffering from a great loss of vitality and it is difficult to launch an active offensive in a short period of time.
Therefore, this round is still the Visigothic Republic taking the initiative to attack.
According to the information transmitted by the Cheka, this time the Visigothic Republic sent troops included nine legions.
If this group of fellows did not revolutionize the traditional military system of the Old World because "military rank is a sign of decadent and degenerate imperialism". Then according to the calculation of the number of a standard legion of about 20,000, it means that there are at least 180,000 troops.
If we also take into account the abundance of human resources in the Visigothic Republic and the high enthusiasm of the people to serve as soldiers, then their legions are overnumbered, and the number of troops is likely to exceed 200,000.
An army of 200,000 poured out. The natural target was Frisia, which was currently used as the last refuge by the Britonic faction and a bridgehead against the Visigoths.
At present, Frisia has only five incomplete legions, and the strength is ...... Definitely not more than 80,000 people.
William was slightly surprised when he received the news, and then he left behind him about sending men to Madame Maria Frisia to discuss his marriage to Victoria.
Now, he had more important things to worry about.
