Chapter 1476: The Unintelligible Battle Situation (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Due to the strict purge and destruction of the interior by the Prime Minister of Lingshan, the bureaucratic aristocracy within the Semitic tribe was greatly damaged.
At the same time, the prime minister's personal authority has been greatly expanded, and he has firmly seized the power, and the Semitic government has been trained to be obedient like a dog.
According to incomplete statistics, in just one month of January 837, nearly 10,000 large and small nobles and bureaucrats within the Semitic tribe were arrested and imprisoned.
Not only Akadrine, but also the rape directly carried out by the Ministry of the Interior has spread to all parts of the Semitic people, and this trend has even spread to Thundercastle, the capital of Thunder, which has always been at odds with Akadraline.
Due to the defeat of the expeditionary force, the balance of strength between the various forces of Lei Shen has changed, and these dogs also plan to take this opportunity to rearrange the order of the rivers and lakes.
Groups of secret police officers with orders signed by the Prime Minister rushed to arrest anyone who looked like a mole.
Due to the fact that there were too many traitors arrested by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Doston, known as the number one fierce dog of Madorins, even learned the advanced management methods of all evil capitalism without a teacher, and adopted the last elimination system.
In other words, task indicators and evaluation criteria have been set for the secret police in various departments, and those who are caught the most spies will be promoted and those who are caught the least will be laid off.
For this reason, the secret police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave full play to their enthusiasm and initiative, and some of them even gave the entire city lord's mansion to the whole pot.
As a result, prisons are overcrowded, and every cell is packed.
In order to free up more space for the rebellion of these heinous Semitic public enemies, the prison had to release a large number of murderers and robbers. Brigand.
And most of these outlaws were recruited by the secret police. Become their right-hand man and accomplice. He became the Prime Minister's most powerful subordinate.
When the news reached the Caribbean. Shocked the eyeballs of the ground. And Lord Lorraine's evaluation of this is that in troubled times, there will be demons.
There was a joke at the time that the best way to save your life and not be captured by the secret police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was to kill someone on the street and let the police of the Ministry of Justice arrest you, and they would not even send you to prison. It was already full.
Of the ten thousand nobles, three thousand of them were interrogated by the special tribunal with great efficiency, and the poor people did not even have time to open their mouths to defend themselves during the whole interrogation.
These people are personally selected by the Prime Minister himself, and the specific process is to send a list of people who are arrested every day.
The Prime Minister drank coffee, closed his eyes over and over again, and sketched a red pen on the dense list, because he didn't like the unlucky guys.
And the unlucky ghosts who are sketched will be treated as serious criminals and dealt with severely and quickly.
However, today, the Semitic nobles who were tried by the special court were a little wronged, and the prime minister was in a hurry that day, and he hurriedly went out with a red pen to circle the whole piece of paper.
After the judge got the list, he immediately attached great importance to it, and the presiding judge analyzed the handwriting, line thickness, and ink concentration. Prime Minister Madolins takes this list very seriously.
The judge immediately arraigned all the prisoners on the list.
Hundreds of prisoners were strung together by a thick iron chain and dragged into the courtroom by rough prison guards.
To save trouble. The shrewd and efficient secret police invented this method, in which they chained each prisoner to the chain, and as long as they looked at the first prisoner like a sheep, the others would obediently follow.
The secret police mercilessly punched and kicked all the prisoners who walked slowly.
None of the prisoners who had been tortured many times were not injured. Many of them were able to barely move with the help of their former friends.
The unkempt prisoners, covered in the foul stench and smell of blood, arrived in the hall. The huge courtroom was stuffed with them, filled with an unbearable smell.
The presiding judge even saw a few familiar faces among the prisoners, and when they saw him, they immediately cast pleading glances.
That pitiful gaze, even if the lion sees it, will soften his heart.
And the judge was far inferior to the lion, so when he saw the eyes of those people, he couldn't help but feel a softness in his heart.
However, it was only a second, and after he saw the bloodthirsty eyes of the Ministry of Internal Affairs commissioner next to him, the judge quickly made a decision.
Immediately, he picked up a piece of black veil and put it on his head, and said loudly with an expressionless face: "You are convicted of treason, and I will sentence you to death on behalf of the Semitic people."
Execute it now~!"
Then he slammed the gavel in his hand.
If he had not done so, it would well have been his presence in the accused's place tomorrow for his deputy to announce his death sentence.
After knowing that they were going to die, many of the prisoners were so frightened that they collapsed on the spot, and some of them were even so frightened that they couldn't say a word.
This will naturally be regarded by the special court as ironclad evidence of the thief's intentions.
And those who shouted loudly on the spot and struggled desperately, pulled at the chains that bound them, as if they could get out of the predicament.
Others cursed Mardolins with all their might, cursing the lackeys of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in all sorts of vicious language, and even spitting on them.
Every now and then, a few sturdy jailers would rush up and kick them violently, causing them to bleed from their mouths and noses and lay dying. Completely dispel the arrogance of these traitors and traitors.
At its peak, it is said that a judge set a record for sentencing 27 people to death in one hour.
In the main square of the Imperial City of Arcaderin, there are seven guillotines. The triangular guillotine is pulled up high, and it looks extremely eerie and terrifying.
Every day from the morning onwards, a steady stream of carriages from the Ministry of Internal Affairs filled with prisoners came to unload the death row inmates with their hands tied behind their backs in front of the guillotine.
They lined up in front of the guillotine, waiting to be executed.
On the other side, there are also more than a dozen wooden platforms, all of which have a huge wooden pier on them.
This is for the executioners.
Due to the large number of people, the guillotine was not enough. So much so that the firing squad had to temporarily recruit dozens of executioners.
This has also brought the ancient method of execution, such as beheading with a knife, back into the eye.
The second method of execution. It is very loved by the majority of onlookers.
Although every day comes to the main square. The people who watched the execution were crowded. But there were obviously more onlookers in front of the beheading than in front of the guillotine.
Because, because those executioners were in a hurry to work without training, they were not professional enough.
When they cut off their heads, many of them couldn't cut off their heads cleanly. As a result, the blood was smeared, and the inmates often let out sharp and terrible screams before they died, because of the severe pain.
Whenever this time. The onlookers were all grinning, revealing their yellow and black teeth, and let out a warm cheer like a tsunami.
In fact, these dead people just like to watch the excitement.
They didn't care if they were a Semitic pillar, a scholar, a thinker, an ordinary thief, or a murderer.
As long as there is murder to watch, they will all be very happy. Of course, if it was the aristocratic bureaucrats who had been high in the past who died, they would naturally be happier. Even laughing maniacally.
Whenever the head of a nobleman is cut off. The executioners grabbed the hair from the head with their blood-stained hands and examined it briefly. began to sell loudly.
"Gold teeth, shining gold teeth, five copper plates. ”
"Beautiful hair, this is the hair of a noble woman, soft and flowing, perfect for wigs. ”
"Gold earrings, pure gold earrings, just one silver coin. ”
“......”
When all the value of those heads has been squeezed out, it will be thrown into a large basket and squeezed together with other hideous heads stained with blood.
At this time, it was impossible to see which of the nobles was more noble.
××××××××
Despite the bloody purge and repression of the interior, the city of Acadherine was full of people, but ......
However, the Immortal, who was revered by officials and the common people as the 'Incorruptible', was considered the most powerful and illustrious prime minister in Semitic history, and turned a blind eye to the handful of human bandits entrenched in the Caribbean.
Neither the generals were summoned to formulate countermeasures, nor were the troops mobilized to prepare for battle, let alone the mobilization orders issued to all parts of the Semitic tribes.
It was a very strange thing, the enemies had already reached the door, and Mardolins was still busy cleaning the room.
For millennia, all Semites knew that humans were their uncommon enemies.
The Semitic people did not have enough to eat and wear, the nobles killed indiscriminately, the necromancers slaughtered indiscriminately, they got sick, they lost their chickens, and their children looked like neighbors...... And so on, it's all because of human beings, it's all human fault.
The official propaganda for many years has also taught them that they must hate and be ruthless towards human beings, and as long as they defeat human beings, they will be better.
When the time comes, there will be human slaves, women who sleep with humans, and spend human money, and everyone will be able to live a happy life like a landlord and old wealth, and eat meat at a time.
On the other hand, if people are defeated by humans, they have only one way to die, and the fate will be worse than that of humans defeated by them.
As the leader of the Semitic race, Mardolins should set an example for the Semitic people, and should gather heavy troops at the first moment of human advance, attack the human coalition forces in the Caribbean, kill them, and drive them down to the sea to feed the fish.
It's like the Great War that conquered the Caribbean in 500 years.
But he didn't do that, and kept wielding the butcher's knife at his own people.
It's actually quite easy to understand.
Because it's just a very typical way of raising a thief's self-respect.
As long as humanity is still in the Semitic continent, as long as humanity does not go to Semitic wēixié, those Semitic people who are afraid of being invaded by humans will have to make compromises to Madorins.
At this time, setting off an infighting will only lead to a split civil war among the Semitic tribes, and the Semitic tribes will not even have any hope.
The same was true of Hawkes, the commander of the Forbidden Army, even though Mardolins moved his men, but for the sake of the overall situation, he still swallowed his anger.
It wasn't until the butcher's knife finally hit his neck that he couldn't bear it, and he ran away in anger.
It was only a runaway, and the old gentleman never had the idea of pulling up the Praetorian Guard to kill Madorins.
So, only humans are in the Semitic continent for a day. Mardolins was able to go ahead with his purge with peace of mind.
And the other reason is ...... It's kind of funny.
Because Prime Minister Madolins carried out a purge and did too much. A large number of mid-level officials were arrested. The work of the government has come to a near standstill.
In many departments, there are only a few gatekeepers and a few clerks, and they are all temporary workers. Officials to fill these vacancies have not yet had time to be appointed.
Even though he wanted to send troops, he couldn't do anything about it.
Because of all kinds of things needed to send troops, such as personnel, military salaries, military equipment, materials, food and grass...... All of this is subject to approval and transfer by a series of officials.
It is up to the officials themselves to organize and supervise.
And basically all of these people have been arrested. Even if they weren't caught, they were on the way to be caught.
Those who are still in the office are not focused on work, but on whether it is time for them to run away.
Sometimes, in order to deal with some sudden emergencies, I set up a desk in the prison cell, and it is more convenient for people to be here.
However, Prime Minister Madorins is not worried about this, and is even very optimistic.
At a cabinet meeting. He made it abundantly clear that humanity has crossed the oceans. Logistics is weak, and human soldiers are incapable of fighting.
Countless instances have proven over the centuries that a single Semitic soldier can easily defeat ten human soldiers.
The only thing they relied on was the traitors within the Semitic tribe, and only by betraying and destroying the spies could they have a chance to defeat the powerful Semitic tribes, and it was at the hands of the traitors that the million-dollar Semitic expeditionary force was defeated.
Therefore, as long as we take the lead and catch all the Semitic traitors, the enemy will be defeated without a fight.
What's more, human beings are now in the land of the Semitic tribe, and we have an absolute advantage, the Semitic people have a population of hundreds of millions, and there are 40 million adult males over the age of sixteen.
We can organize an army of five million, or even tens of millions, to drown the enemy.
Although his confident words were scoffed at by countless experienced generals, it is irrefutable that the humans have indeed been holding their ground for two months since the occupation of the Caribbean.
If the humans attack decisively at the beginning of the landing, the empty and chaotic Semitic tribes will not be able to help the humans at all, and the human army can drive straight into the landing, a little more than a thousand miles.
Maybe this will already hit the city of Arcadherine.
But the human coalition waited. It was as if to verify Prime Minister Madorins' words.
This made many Semitic military strategists feel inexplicable and unanimously agreed: This is not scientific~!
Either the generals of the human race are fools, or as the Prime Minister said, they are false, but in fact they are very weak.
According to common sense, in this kind of cross-sea operation, all materials have to be transported from the human continent, which is extremely logistical pressure.
Even according to the Semitic minimum ration, a million-strong army needs 1,000 tons of food per day, and in order to distribute the food to each soldier, about 30% of the total amount needs to be consumed in transshipment and distribution.
In addition, there are weapons, clothing, building materials, military vehicles, mules and horses, forage......
No city can provide such a large amount of supplies.
Therefore, after occupying a place and gaining a foothold, the only way to do this is to rapidly expand the territory, so that an effective strategic buffer zone can be formed and a counterattack can be calmly dealt with.
Second, more strategic resources, food, and population can be plundered from the local area. Only by fighting and nurturing can we take root firmly.
After Lorraine occupied the Caribbean, instead of rapidly expanding its territory, it took a defensive stance and kept consolidating its defensive line.
This makes people feel incredible, and everyone wonders if Lorraine, the god of war, is blown out by humans?
There are even military experts who have counted Lorraine's countless achievements, and then emphatically pointed out that Lorraine is actually a coward, but he coaxed those ignorant girls by relying on his white face, sweet mouth, and good kung fu.
Take the route of nepotism and be opportunistic.
Later, when leading the army, the blind cat met the dead mouse, and the battle was won. Then he spent money to hire people and desperately bragged for him to praise his stinky feet, so the human side also used false rumors to give him the false name of 'God of War'.
In fact, he is nothing, if he doesn't believe it, let that thing come to the uncle with a million little brothers.
Uncle can poke him to death with one finger~!
Although Lord Luo really brought someone over at that time, he may not know what will happen, but now that Lorraine is far away in the Caribbean, the whip is beyond his reach, everyone will let go of their mouths, launch a powerful public opinion offensive, and there is no problem in bringing him down.
Anyway, in the past two months, everyone has not dared to speak casually, but it is definitely not wrong to scold Lorraine vigorously.
On the other side, Lorraine laughed all afternoon when she knew what those people thought. I am very reminded of the old saying: When man thinks, God laughs.
For the IQ of those Semitic military strategists, the lord was really a little speechless.
More than 1,000 years have passed, and they still haven't made much progress. Their war mentality is still stuck a thousand years ago, when the Semitic attacked humanity.
It is true that the wars that have always been fought are indeed contested by numbers. As long as several times the number of heavy troops is mobilized, the enemy can be destroyed.
It was this kind of thinking that led the Semitic expeditionary force to be wiped out in a mere year.
Leading an army of one million to attack a vast continent with a population of more than 100 million is full of difficulties.
It is simply impossible to completely conquer, or destroy the opponent.
In particular, the other party has an absolute local advantage, and various city defense fortresses are all over the place. It's easy to raise a large legion. A series of victories may be achieved in the early stages of the war, but later on, it will inevitably turn into a hard-fought war of attrition.
It's like a real-time strategy game.
The start on his side is too weak, and his ability to replenish troops is poor. At this time, tactics such as what field battalion to attack quickly and Rhino Rush will not work at all.
The only way is to immerse oneself in development, climb the scientific and technological tree, and establish a strong modern industrial system, so that the local area can provide sufficient logistics and military supplies.
At the same time, by sending spies, the priest can recruit the opponent's generals and weaken the opponent's power. And then the crazy rioters
Only in this way will you become stronger step by step, and finally start a decisive battle with the enemy.
In this case, the whole Caribbean has become a huge construction site~!
