When the royal family and the nobles were fighting each other, the rebel army won all the battles and attacked the royal city all the way.

And when this matter was officially reported, everyone was taken aback, thinking that it was absolutely impossible.

But that's what it is.

The nobles in the royal city were frightened by this, and they asked anxiously: "Are those mud legs really so powerful? Did they really win every battle? What about our local garrisons? What about the fortresses set up everywhere? Why can't you stop it?"

There are no answers to these questions.

Maybe those rebels weren't that powerful; maybe logically speaking, their victory shouldn't be so fast...

It can only be said that when a country is about to go downhill, countless people will appear in the driver's seat, scrambling to step on the accelerator. 【Note】

The high-ranking and full-bodied local officials have long forgotten what war is.

When they learned of a people's uprising, they were furious at a few officials who were actively preparing for war: "Gentlemen, please don't forget your identity. What we have to deal with are shameless, indecent, useless, and mud-like untouchables." Ladies and gentlemen, do we need to be so serious? In my opinion, we must not lose our dignity, and there is no need to stand up for it."

As a result, one legion was defeated, and the other legion was defeated again...

Another legion actually mutinied halfway because the government did not pay the army!

Absurd scenes that people can't imagine appear one by one.

The royal family and nobles are busy fighting for power and gain. They regard each other as real enemies, but ignore the strength of the rebel army.

At that time, King Richard hadn't been completely emptied, but he was already struggling to control the court.

So after hearing the news from the rebels, he just sat on the throne with a blank expression, without saying a word.

The old nobles who hadn't died were still busy targeting the royal family, and didn't take this matter to heart at all.

The relatively shrewd and cunning Earl Safir paid a little more attention to it, but because of the hidden plan in his heart, he failed to pay more attention, but he was calm on the surface: "This is indeed something we did not expect, but A group of short-sighted peasants can't make any climate after all."

Afterwards, Earl Safire suggested to the king that he dispatched six Royal City infantry to suppress it.

But there are only four teams actually sent out...

Because the remaining two teams have other uses.

They also dispatched in the name of suppressing the rebels, but after walking only a few hundred meters, they quietly turned back to the royal city, and then assisted Earl Safir to complete the killing mentioned above, killing the old nobles and some enemies that the earl hated They killed a clean slate.

As for the other four teams on the expedition.

Both the king and Earl Safir thought at the time that they would definitely defeat the rebels.

Because the Wangcheng Infantry has always been the best-paid army in this country, well-equipped and well-trained.

They have always been stationed on the outskirts of the royal city, and the soldiers in the team are all of good background, or the youngest sons of noble families who can't become nobles, or some wealthy households specially sent a lot of money to send in. The purpose is to find a child who can A chance to get... even the lowest title.

For such a purpose...

Whenever a festival requires a parade, these people will rush to the forefront.

They wore the most beautiful brand-new uniforms, held their heads high and held their chests high, and they were very airy. Every time they walked along the street, they would attract countless people to watch.

At that time, everyone would admire and cheer for them, and it was recognized that this was a powerful, majestic and mighty army.

However, the seemingly glamorous team is actually just a show. It is no problem to kill those old nobles who have no resistance, but if they go to the battlefield...

Most of these soldiers grew up in the royal city, so they would not be involved in any battles. Their daily training is nothing more than learning how to pose to make them look more majestic and better-looking. It is not so much an army as a guard of honor.

They spent countless hours in the streets and alleys of Wangcheng, all of them are proficient in eating, drinking, playing and singing, they are familiar with every casino and theater, and they also know all the whores in Wangcheng who are listed for sale!

When it came time to fight...

These soldiers confidently put on a mighty marching posture at the gate of the city. Accompanied by the passionate music played by the band, while waving the military flag, they marched towards the distance with their chests raised!

But wait until the internal fighting in Wangcheng is over.

There is still a lot of news about the four infantry teams that went out to suppress.

Then there was a showdown between King Richard and Earl Safir, the former was emptied, and the latter was enjoying himself...

The imperial court finally received a brief report that the Wangcheng Infantry was defeated.

And the reason why it took so long to send the report was because the war was unfavorable and he was afraid of being punished.

What's more interesting is that several aristocratic generals also wisely used their brains, thinking that the uprising of the rebel army was no different from robbers and robberies. They were nothing more than robbing money and food.

Therefore, they concealed the military situation, defended the city like a green-shell bastard, and waited patiently for the rebels to "burn, kill and expose" before leaving.

In this way, they thought optimistically, maybe they could get a military merit of 'repelling the enemy'.

However, the Rebels are not bandits.

They didn't come to burn, kill and loot, they came to overthrow the dynasty.

The situation is getting more and more serious, and it is no longer difficult to conceal the military situation on the front line.

The short report was forced to be submitted, but due to the series of stupid operations, it was too difficult to describe, so in the report, there was neither any reason nor excuse, but only one sentence - the defeat of the war .

Earl Safir was so pitted that he was about to spurt out a mouthful of old blood!

Just because when he knew the information, those rebels who committed the rebellion were already very close to the royal city.

Because of this incident, various rumors began to fly in the royal city.

People sometimes say, "Your Majesty is preparing to march in person, and the rebel army is not worth mentioning", and then they say, "The rebel army is coming fiercely, and no one can fight against it. Your Majesty and the nobles have decided to flee and avoid the edge for the time being." : "The rebels are like robbers, they are here to burn, kill and loot."

At this time, in just one hour, hundreds of rumors will be freshly released.

There is no internet in this world to communicate with. The imperial court, which should be responsible for guiding public opinion, is at the end of internal fighting. Many officials have been killed, no one is responsible, and there is chaos. Nervously guessing and making up each other, people are panicking, and the entire royal city will be in turmoil.

The emotions of fear and panic were like a sudden flood, hitting the city one after another.

There are no serious business people in the market anymore, because they are all worried about fleeing, so how can they have the mood to sell things and open stores?

The streets were crowded with fully loaded carriages, all the residents of Wangcheng came out of their homes and gathered in the street in a panic, talking to each other: "Is this Wangcheng safe?" "If those reactionary rebels capture Wangcheng, will they be Murder?" "Why don't you run away and go to the countryside to hide first!" "Then if we go out to hide, what should we bring? Don't you want to take home? Do you want to take all the money?"

Everyone was pessimistic at the time.

Because the killing that night was thrilling, it was full of genocide, and it was murder in the street... All these are enough to make people realize what the absurdity of the upper class of this country has become; in addition, there have been many financial crises before, A government that is on the verge of bankruptcy, large tracts of barren land, poor people who starve to death on the streets every day, and famines and plagues that once broke out...

In just a few years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued one after another!

People admit very frankly in private: "This country has become unbearable to a certain extent, and I really don't know how long it can continue to struggle!"

There are also some rich people who don't think about any countermeasures and methods, but complain angrily: "A group of rebellious peasants can drive all the way to the king's city. I really don't know what the king and those nobles are busy with all day long!"

At the same time, while complaining, they packed their luggage faster than anyone else, and prepared to flee to other places, because this country is about to become a shipwreck, but they are as selfish as they are, only asking for everything but never Those who think about how to repay are unwilling to stay on the boat and sink with the boat anyway.

Sadly...they're not going anywhere!

A team guarded all the city gates, and all people entering and leaving were stopped and dragged to the square.

Earl Safir could barely be considered a smart person rarely seen in this court.

Helplessly, there was too little time for him to reorganize the government. He just emptied the king a moment ago, and killed a series of disobedient officials; The new officials who were appointed were difficult to get started for a while, and half of the court furniture was paralyzed, and some orders could not be followed, and some orders could not be stopped... Even if he had great abilities, he couldn't use them.

But no matter what, you have to resist and struggle.

Now that the army is empty, let's recruit!

So, the uproar continued, bells rang throughout the city, and drums and rattles made a chaotic noise.

Along with these sounds, soldiers on horseback began to shout along the street: "Silence, silence, everyone! Everyone must sign up for the army with the person in charge of the area!"

However, the people in Wangcheng didn't want to go to the battlefield.

They were not soldiers at all, and they evaded military service, crying and shouting.

Rich rich people try to spend money to avoid disasters.

But this time, money didn't work either.

In order to resist the menacing rebel army, the nobles in charge of the court wished to incorporate everyone—even the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled—into the army, and drove them like cattle and sheep. They continued their lives for this crumbling dynasty!
