Chapter 257: Such a Baptism (1)

The inhabitants of Diwang City were awakened by the sound of gunfire in the middle of the night, and the gunfire was silent for a while, but in the early morning of the next day, the handicraft workshop workers and cleaners who first took to the streets in the moonlight were all taken aback, and the city's busiest sunset street was already full of musketeers with loaded guns.

The next morning, the assembly bell in the square in front of the fair court rang, the bell has not been rung for a long time, the last time it rang was hundreds of years ago, it was still the era when the city-state consuls needed to run, the candidates would ring the bell in the fair square, and the people gave speeches to win the support of the people, and the current city-state consuls are already collegial, usually formed by the hereditary councilors of the city-state and the judges of justice.

Some people thought that the bell rang by mistake, and some people wandered around to see the excitement, and when they saw the musketeers who were also loaded with guns around the square, the people really felt that something big was going to happen.

"Citizens of the city-state of Diwan, I am your most faithful servant, Commander of the Civic Guard, Jane Furphy!"

I don't know when the loudspeakers tied to the stone pillars around the square made a loud sound, startling the citizens who gathered.

If it is a slum slum, it will not be so surprising, this kind of amplification equipment, the aid station is installed to facilitate the use of relief notices, from the perspective of the aid station and the Star Field Social Agency, this kind of non-military technology in the era of ignorance is what the people of the Water Tower need and will inevitably give to them, but although many city-state tribal careerists in the Water Tower Star are salivating for the technology of the home planet, but on the contrary, they are not interested in this kind of equipment that has no obvious use from a military or economic point of view, after all, even if it is purchased, with the resources and technical level of the Water Tower Star, it cannot be cracked and produced and even derived from related technologies, and, officially, from the official point of view, but also to make a superficial article that adheres to the spirit of the law of the ancestors and does not pursue technological development.

But in fact, if it weren't for the fact that the water tower did not have the necessary resources for large-scale industrialization, I am afraid that the equality code of the ancestors would have been shelved long ago, but now, for the tribal leaders, it really makes little sense to introduce such a device as a megaphone.

Therefore, the loud sound of the megaphone startled the citizens.

But in a moment they began to talk about each other.

"Captain Jane?"

"Is it a coup d'état?"

Diwang city-state, with Diwang City as the center, radiates hundreds of kilometers around, has a population of less than one million, and the population is at the middle and lower level among the city-state tribes of the Water Tower Star, but Diwang City is the richest city in the Water Tower Star, the handicraft industry is the most developed, and the population of the city-state is mostly gathered in Diwang City, the per capita living standard is much richer than other city-states, the city-state guards, the same number is not much, but the equipment and training are extremely well-trained, there are about 3,000 soldiers, and there is an artillery battalion, because the water tower star has no gold and silver elements, copper and iron ore is also extremely rare, and there is no coal mine, so the armament of 3,000 musketeers even has an artillery battalion of more than 40 guns of large and small calibersIf it can be said that the other city-states are exhausted, the financial resources of the Diwang city-state are also barely maintained.

Jane, the commander of the Civic Guard, had been heard of by the citizens of the city-state, and was a heroic figure who repelled several invasions from his neighbors.

Hearing that it was Jane who convened the fair meeting, the citizens were greatly surprised, and then they realized that it was the soldiers of the Citizen Guard who blocked the entire city, Jane, did it really carry out a coup d'état?

After all, there are many city-states that are friendly to this city-state, such as the family of the current consul of the city, which is actually intertwined in several large city-states, and Jane's coup d'état is a declaration of war against these super families who really rule the Water Tower.

Jane's speech continued, his tone sonorous, recounting the arrogance and debauchery of the judges of the Court of Justice, hereditary councillors, and some wealthy businessmen, and he named Yabai.

The citizens looked at each other when they heard this, and only felt that Captain Jian was really crazy, although Captain Jian's words were true, and the people were secretly happy when they heard it, but did he really want to punish most of the powerful people in the city? Isn't that a big mess in the world? What do you think, in the end, I am afraid that Captain Jian will also be sent to the gallows.

Citizens, they want to listen but don't dare to listen, but under the supervision of the musketeers with loaded guns, it's not good to slip away now, if you don't slip away, and you are afraid of getting into trouble, you are really in a dilemma.

"I have issued an arrest warrant to remove Kerry from the position of Archon, and to remove Sheldon and Kura ......"

Every time he pronounced a person's name, it caused an uproar among the citizens, but then it gradually became clear that something was not quite right, because it was clear that Jane was not crazy, because the musketeers with loaded guns were obviously following his command, and even if he announced the arrest of nearly half of the powerful people in the city, these musketeers did not blink, and he seemed to have the full support of the armed guards, and if so, then the coup could really succeed.

It's just that the next step will definitely cause the joint intervention of several big city-states, thinking of this, the citizens are worried again, but some evil magnates were announced to be arrested, and it did not resonate with them, life is already used to numbness, this magnate has fallen, but it is just a new magnate to continue to be powerful, but there is nothing to be happy about.

"During the rebellion, Mr. Manning temporarily acted as the consul, and appointed Mr. Luochen as the governing adviser......" After he read out a series of rebellion orders, he continued to announce the new governing framework, and what Manning or Luochen, almost no one knows who it is, after all, Manning's name is very ordinary, it is the old acquaintance of the young lawyer Manning, and he will never know that it is him, in fact, Manning himself, and he does not know that he has been pushed to the front by the coup soldiers.

......

When Jian was frustrated with his speech, Le Chen was leisurely looking through some documents in the office, when suddenly the door was pushed open, and Old Jack looked at him with a suspicious face: "There was a mutiny outside, Buffon just came back from inquiring about the news, I heard that the mutinous soldiers are going to ask a person named Luochen to be the ruling adviser, it shouldn't be you, right?" He originally thought that it should have nothing to do with Le Chen, but the name Luochen did not fit the habit of naming the people of the Water Tower.

"I guess it's me. Le Chen smiled indifferently.

Old Jack was stunned, and immediately became furious: "You, are you crazy?! Do you know what you're doing?"

Le Chen shrugged, "I know very well. ”

Old Jack was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left, muttering, obviously going to Yang Like to report the matter.

Le Chen ignored him and went to open the next file by himself.
