Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 14: Coups and Uprisings (middle)

"Come on!"

"For the workers' commando, rush in!"

"Kill the tyrant's lackey!"

Outside the capital barracks in the western area of ​​Ankerton, the Santos Party organized the workers' commandos and the agitated armed citizens to surround the place. They braved the shooting of the defenders and put the temporarily made ladders on the fence. Roaring up and climbing.

No one knows who fired the first shot. Maybe some stressed out soldier accidentally pulled the trigger, or maybe it was an angry citizen who took the initiative to shoot. In any case, the battle had already started, and hundreds of armed men charged. The line consisted of only one company of 120 soldiers and dozens of other armed artillerymen.

That's right, the Second Brigade did not take away the ten artillery pieces they were equipped with, but stayed in this barracks. No one expected that the protests would eventually turn into today's riots, and the various units of the Second Brigade were armed. The citizens who got up were besieged in various streets of the city, endured by cold guns from unknown directions.

The battle outside the barracks did not last long, and more and more citizens were attracted to join the battle. After the gate of the barracks was smashed open by the citizens with logs that were carried over from somewhere, the soldiers inside knew that they could not resist, so they did. Under the leadership of the captain, he decisively disarmed and surrendered to the angry citizens.

The ten artillery pieces left in the barracks and the large amount of weapons and equipment in the armory became the spoils of the Santos party and were quickly distributed to the workers and the poor. Standing on the ammunition boxes in the armory, the leader of the Santos party, Eke El Santos held up a rifle and looked frantically at the worker commandos and armed soldiers gathered in the barracks.

"My compatriots, the rotten and cruel king ordered the shelling of our peaceful petition team and slaughtered many innocent citizens. We cannot forget this atrocity, and we cannot forgive the actions of the army!"

"We don't need tyrannical kings to rule us and oppress us, we should stand up bravely, like today! All the citizens of Ankerton have joined in this holy war to overthrow the royal family, and we will let the king And the nobles regret what they have done! Let them go to **** to repent of their crimes!"

"Evacuate this armory, and use the king's weapon to defeat the king!"

"Down with the king!"

The armed citizens cheered the removal of all the contents of the armory. Eker Santos did not join the ranks. He walked up to the dejected captured soldiers with his cronies and said kindly:

"My compatriots, I know that you were forced to shoot at us. Now, as long as you are willing to join our great team, all your previous crimes can be forgiven, especially the artillery!"

"Otherwise." After speaking, he changed his words: "You will pay the price of your life for resisting the people's actions, just like your captain."

The words fell, and the captain among the prisoners was forcibly dragged out by the workers of the commando soldiers, and knelt in front of Santos. The captain seemed to realize his fate. He raised his head and tenaciously maintained his dignity as a noble: "I am a noble, you have no right to shoot me, you are a shameful rebellion, the Kingdom Army will definitely crush you...!"

Before he could finish speaking, the soldier pulled the trigger directly, almost hitting the lead bullet shot from the back of his head and punched a blood hole in the back of his head. The lead bullet passed through his head and brought out a viscous red liquid.

"Oh, stupid noble." Santos said contemptuously, looking at the twitching corpse lying on the ground.

Seeing that they executed a noble captain without hesitation, the remaining soldiers hurriedly expressed their willingness to surrender, and the artillerymen even shouted: "Sir, we are artillerymen, you will need our skills!"

"Very good, you made the right choice." Santos said to the soldiers with a smile.

Then, he turned towards the busy crowd, pointed to the ten cannons placed in the open space of the barracks, and shouted loudly: "My compatriots, move and move these cannons away, now it's their turn to taste the taste of artillery!"

The sound of gunshots coming from all directions made the officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade almost beleaguered from all sides. The citizens who fled after being shelled by the Praetorian Guards did not feel timid, but returned home full of anger and handed it to them from their ancestors. The weapons took to the streets again, attacking the officers and soldiers who were forced to stay in the city.

Because they were separated by a moat, they could not attack the initiator, and the "innocent" officers and soldiers of the 2nd Brigade became poor substitutes. The sound of gunfire and bullets from all around caused many soldiers to be shot and fell, and all the ministries had to shoot. Fighting back, the whole city was plunged into chaos.

The capital garrison, which shouldered the responsibility of defending the capital, collapsed completely, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Most of their soldiers took off their military uniforms and joined the ranks of angry citizens. The few soldiers who were still under the command of officers could only be forced to withdraw to the noble district in the northern part of the city - where the war has not yet been affected, The guards of the nobles are already on guard, controlling the streets in and out of the city, shooting down any mob who dared to approach.

The shops and warehouses on both sides of the street were smashed open, and the hoarded goods were also looted. Greedy businessmen and bureaucrats who failed to escape into the safe area were beaten to the ground by the mob and beaten to death. Some mobs were looting the shops. Later, he even set it on fire, and watched the raging fire intensify, as if the uprising was gradually getting out of control.

The newly promoted nobles who planned the coup d'état today did not expect that the situation would develop to the current level. They hid in their homes tremblingly, listening to the shouts of the citizens outside and the repeated gunshots, for fear that someone would hit them in the next second. Open the door and **** his property.

During this turmoil, the Santos party quickly gained the support of armed citizens by virtue of the good reputation they had built up among the civilians. Eker Santos, surrounded by workers' commandos, preached their party's purpose, let More and more citizens joined their ranks—the prestige of the king plummeted, and the people who rose up to resist discovered that the king and nobles were not sacred and inviolable, so the purpose of the Santos Party was recognized by more people.

As a result, the citizens who took up arms marched to Heroes Square while shouting "Overthrow the King." "Freedom, Equality, Democracy" and other slogans that are usually arrogant. The influence of the Santos Party spread like a plague at this time, and it didn't take long for the citizens of almost the whole city to shout the same slogan.
