I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 95 Now, has the time come?
Compared to their angry outbursts, Hart was relatively calm.
"Just killing one or two people will not change the current situation."
The old man's eyes were sharp, "What do you mean, Hart?"
"Have you been infected with the cowardice and greed for life and death of those rich nobles after you went to the imperial capital for a few years?"
"That's not what I meant, Uncle Leon."
Hart looked at everyone present.
“The West Frankish army acted with restraint in Tashili. They did not set fires everywhere or rob houses.
Why do you think this is? Is it because of their kindness? "
Hart shook his head and smiled contemptuously.
"Of course this is impossible, they are afraid of us, afraid of us Sahelians!
In our town, due to years of trade, there have been many intermarriages between the foreign population and the local population, and the population has been growing rapidly.
Compared to the town of Eagle Point, which was bombed into ruins, we have a total of 30,000 to 40,000 people in Tashili!
And what about the West French army coming here?
Four fourth-level warships, with a maximum of more than a thousand people.
Counting only young adults, our number is ten times theirs!
If we riot, even without weapons, just a pitchfork and a hoe will be enough to drive them out of this land! "
The firearms of this era were not very powerful, and there were no semi-automatic rifles. The number and range of their warships' cannons were also limited.
If there are enough people and they are not afraid of death, it is really possible to overturn these military vehicles with pitchforks.
At the same time, Louis XVI was guillotined by the angry people, which led to the rise of Napoleon.
“The strategic location of Thasili is important, but it is not particularly important. It is surrounded by mountains, and they cannot attack the hinterland of Britannia through this port.
But it cannot be said that it is not important. If we can become their shipping transit, it can also greatly reduce the logistical pressure.
There will only be more and more people coming here in the future, until our numbers pose no threat to them.
Freyna wasn't the only one suffering from this. "
Hart looked at everyone present.
"It will be mine, and all of your wives and daughters, your land, your houses, and your wealth will be looted by them!
We must drive them completely out of Tashili before more of them arrive!
Once we regain control of the town and occupy the natural barrier of the fjord, we will be able to hold it.
The Western French Empire will not bother to bite our hard nut because it is worried about losses.
Since no one comes from Britannia, we have to protect our land by ourselves! "
The old man calmed down and fell into deep thought.
A middle-aged man among these dozens of people said.
"What are you going to do, Hart."
“We need to create an organization.”
Hart's eyes sparkled with light.
"The organization that awakens the Sahilians and unites the Sahilians, using blood as the link, gathers all the strength and drives out the invaders!
The first step in establishing an organization is to get as many trustworthy people as possible to join the organization.
Next, we need to acquire weapons of resistance. "
"You can leave the matter of finding someone to me." said the old man named Leon, who was quite prestigious in the local area.
He thought for a moment, "As for weapons, I have a dozen muskets, six flintlock rifles and two shotguns at home."
"I also have three fire guns at home." The middle-aged man who just spoke said.
The others also spoke one after another, one after another.
"I also have two crossbows at home."
"I have two shotguns."
"I have three swords and four good bows."
Xia Ya looked at these people with a strange expression as they reported their own weapons.
If this group of people lived in modern times, the average life expectancy would be more than seven years.
At this time, a middle-aged man about thirty years old stood up and said.
"I went to the imperial capital not long ago and ordered a batch of arms. If nothing else happens, they should arrive in the next few days.
I told them to take the Samir path into the town, a place known only to the natives of Sassili. "
Hearing this, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
He was also a standard Celtic, with short red hair, fair skin, over 1.88 meters tall, very tall, but with a very gentle temperament, and seemed to have some ink in his belly.
Hart's eyes also lit up slightly, "How many?"
"Thirty flintlock muskets, forty muskets, and fifty muskets, as well as some crossbows and swords, equipment that has been eliminated by the army, but they are all good."
Hearing this amount, everyone took a breath.
"Why did you buy so many arms, Sweet?" Leon asked with a frown.
"After the Spanish Empire went to war with us, I guessed that one day the war would spread to Tashili." Sweet said, "And even if not, I can still make some money by selling arms in the limelight of the war."
After a pause, he looked at everyone present and said, "But I am willing to supply them all for free."
While speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Alicia, who was standing next to Char, out of the corner of his eye.
Alicia seemed to be aware of this gaze, and she nodded politely to Sweet.
In fact, it wasn't just him, the eyes of the men around him were all looking this way intentionally or unintentionally.
Alicia lent her cloak to the girl. Now she was neither wearing a mask nor making any disguise. It was normal to attract attention.
Everyone yearns for beautiful things.
Even though there was only some firelight in the warehouse at this moment, she stood behind Xia Ya, deliberately hiding herself.
But she is still the most shining presence here.
Hart was obviously more concerned about other things, his eyes were shining with a little excitement.
"With these guns, we will initially have the capital to fight against them."
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Xia, who was standing beside him and had been watching all this quietly.
"Mr. Xia."
Hart looked at Char seriously and asked.
"You said back then that I would definitely make a big splash when I returned to Sashili.
Now, has the time come? "
The men around them focused their attention on Charia. They didn't know Charia, but seeing Hart being so respectful to him, they were inevitably a little curious.
Especially when there is such a beautiful girl standing behind him. In such a turbulent era, to be able to walk around with such a woman is no longer an ordinary person.
"That's just a blessing." Xia Ya smiled, "Your future depends on the choices you make, doesn't it?"
"I understand."
Hart nodded, took a deep breath, and then looked at the people around him, with more confidence and certainty in his eyes.
