From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds
Chapter 63 Attack on the Palace
"what happened?"
Rag Stone put down the red wine in his hand and asked, "Shouldn't they attack the palace according to the plan?"
The servant cried, "I don't know either. The refugees have gone completely crazy."
"The people who are planted among them can no longer influence them at all."
Rag Stone opened his mouth in astonishment and remained silent, thinking, "I think I've messed up."
Duke Lager is also a very capable man, otherwise he would not have thought of replacing the ruling position of the Dutch family.
"Wait a little longer. First, dispatch some garrison troops into the city to protect the noble area from being affected."
"Then according to the original plan, once the rebels have entered the palace, all remaining troops will be immediately mobilized to suppress the rebellion."
Seeing the Duke's calm expression, the servant was no longer panicked and quickly went downstairs to deliver the order.
The main gate of the palace was brightly lit at this time, and the sound of gunfire continued.
"Overthrow the incompetent King of the Netherlands." The refugees shouted and launched wave after wave of attacks.
The loyal guards fought to the death.
In the palace hall, Netherlands IV sat on the magnificent throne, and in front of him stood the eldest princess of the kingdom and also the first heir to the throne - Netherlands Litte.
"I am an incompetent king who cannot protect my people." Netherlands IV sat on the throne in a dejected manner, with gray hair and messy hair. He looked at his beloved daughter with apology, "Daughter, I am so sorry that I finally got you into trouble."
"No, it's not my father's fault." Princess Litte looked at her father with sadness on her face.
Although her father was a mediocre and even incompetent ruler, he was a good father who loved his daughter.
The sound of gunfire outside was growing weaker and weaker, and it wouldn't be long before the palace fell.
So, the Kingdom of the Netherlands waved its hand and asked Litt to quickly escape through the secret passage.
"Go away, don't think about revenge for me, just live well."
"No, I won't leave." Litte threw herself sadly into the arms of Ned IV. After all, she was just a fourteen-year-old girl.
Ned IV struggled to pry open Litte's tightly clenched hands, and signaled the old butler who had served the royal family for many years to take the princess away.
"I will swear to protect the princess's safety."
The old butler knelt on one knee, with tears in his eyes, and made a promise to Netherlands IV.
Then, he pulled Princess Litte up, looked back every few steps, and walked reluctantly towards the secret passage in the palace garden.
"No, father." Litte extended her hand to her father, hoping that he would let her stay.
Unfortunately, she was disappointed. Netherlands IV would not let his daughter be buried with him.
Looking at the empty palace hall, Netherlands IV smiled somewhat sadly: "I am such an incompetent king."
"Well, let me give it one last try. In the Kingdom of the Netherlands, there are only kings who died in battle, but no kings who surrendered." As he spoke, he walked towards the back of the hall.
He picked up the long-forgotten sword and put on the dusty soft armor.
Sitting on the throne again, he quietly waited for the arrival of the rebels.
Due to the betrayal of spies planted by Duke Lager in the Guards, the gates of the palace were soon opened to the rebels.
The moment the gate opened, the garrison troops that had been assembled on the other side of the royal city, less than a hundred meters away from the gate, quickly set out.
They entered the royal city quickly by forced march, sent a small group to hunt down the refugees who were causing chaos, and the main force headed towards the palace.
At this time, in the palace.
Seeing that the gate had been lost, some of the guards lost all morale and gave up resistance.
Only a small number of guards fought to the end and died gloriously.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After a few loud bangs, the door of the palace hall was violently knocked open.
The frenzied rebels glared fiercely at the King sitting on the throne and rushed towards him impatiently.
Netherlands IV looked at the rebels who broke in. He was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes were full of pity.
Looking at the enemy running towards him, he said nothing and silently drew out his sharp knife.
Even though it has been covered in dust for a long time, the sharpness of the knife can still be seen.
Netherlands IV was also a trained man, so his skills were naturally extraordinary.
After chopping down four or five people in succession, the rebels used flintlock rifles without any moral integrity.
The flintlock is of no use to the strong, but it can pose a great threat to Netherlands IV.
After being shot twice, his strength declined rapidly and he could no longer hold on.
Netherlands IV looked reluctantly in the direction of the palace garden, fell straight to the ground, and slowly closed his eyes.
Just as the rebels were thinking about what to do with the body of Netherlands IV.
Intensive gunfire sounded from behind them.
The royal city garrison troops quickly suppressed the tens of thousands of refugees in the royal city with their firepower advantage.
The refugees could only hide from the gunfire and could no longer show their previous arrogance.
No snowflake is innocent in an avalanche.
The garrison troops disregarded the orders of their superiors and indiscriminately shot and killed the rebels who took up arms.
The refugees were unwilling to be killed and rose up to resist.
After two hours, except for a few refugees who were lucky enough to escape the disaster, the rest of the rebellious refugees in the royal city were all killed.
It is very ironic that Duke Rag gained the favor of a large number of nobles during this rebellion.
The reason was very simple. When the refugees first attacked the noble area, he transferred a part of the garrison troops to protect the nobles.
As for the common people and the wealthy, they were not taken seriously by the nobles.
To them, civilians and the rich are nothing but leeks. No matter how many die, they will grow back after a while.
The omnipresent reporters and news birds faithfully recorded the entire process of the rebellion, of course only the superficial process, and the truth behind it may not really be important.
......
Princess Litte and the old housekeeper, who left the palace, both changed into somewhat dirty clothes.
However, the dirty clothes could not hide Princess Litte's proud figure and beautiful face.
They had no time to rest and arrived at a secluded bay by the sea at night.
There are many ships of different sizes stored here, with a lot of daily necessities and some treasures on board. This is a special preparation made by the royal family just in case.
I never thought that one day it would be useful.
At this time, Litte mustered up her courage and chose a small sailboat with the old housekeeper. The shape of the boat was very similar to a clipper and could be easily operated by only one or two people.
After preparing the supplies, they sailed out of the bay and headed towards the vast ocean before dawn.
Princess Litte took one last reluctant look at the Netherlands Island and made up her mind: "Wait, father. I will definitely avenge you."
"At the same time, I will also find a way to rebuild the Kingdom of the Netherlands and restore the glory of the Dutch family."
