Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 41: National Assembly

"General, Ankerton City has gradually begun to restore order."

Walking on the streets of Ankerton City, Charlie dressed in civilian clothes and several of his general guards looked at the bustling crowd around, one of the latter sighed to Charlie in a low voice.

No matter what Charlie's identity is, the general guards summoned by the system will call him a general in an old-fashioned way. Charlie is used to this, and he just asks the guards to change their tune when outsiders are present.

Looking at the city that had gradually emerged from the haze of the civil war, Charlie was filled with emotion and couldn't help but recall what happened in the past.

After the Santos Party voluntarily announced a truce and lifted the state of martial law in the city, the order in Ankerton gradually returned to before the war. Charles did not take the initiative to break the peace. Under the order of the aristocratic parliament temporarily established by the old nobles, he also demolished the barricades. Open access to control areas and other contacts.

After King Loren's family was imprisoned, the old aristocratic forces set up a temporary aristocratic parliament to manage national affairs under the leadership of several cabinet ministers who evacuated to Curo Town. The Duke of Ireland, who took the lead in calling for cooperation with the rebels, although prepared After being scolded by the nobles, he was invited to join the noble council and was appointed as the main person to communicate with the Santos party.

Charlie's uncle Gunilla also became a member of the noble council. Through the information he revealed when talking with him, Charlie learned that the current main purpose of the noble council was to imprison the king's family and the palace minister, Cator. When Largon was rescued, the Santos party was very tough. If they wanted to release the king's family, the king had to sign the edict of abdication and give up the strong claim to the Rumon kingdom.

That is to say, if the king wants to get out of prison, he must give up his status as a king, and can never return to the Rumont Kingdom again. He can only go to another country to become a rich nobleman.

Except for those royalists, most of the nobles did not have much resistance to this. Under the situation that most of the kingdoms have set off rebellions to overthrow the king, they are very clear that it is unrealistic to continue to maintain the monarchy, and they decisively betrayed the king. Their power and status can still be preserved, but if the rebels from the south come over, everything will be lost.

Therefore, they even took the initiative to send someone to the prison to persuade the king to make him understand the current situation and stop fighting fearlessly. King Loren looked at the faces of the nobles who were always loyal to him, and his heart was naturally uncomfortable, but he still clenched his teeth and was unwilling to let go.

The king still had luck in his heart. He believed that the army on the border would definitely fight back, wipe out all the despicable traitors, and let him return to the magnificent Sona Palace, but as more and more nobles came to persuade him, The only chance he had left in his heart disappeared.

All those nobles betrayed him and abandoned him together with the kingdom's army. Just as the desperate king was about to let go, several royalist nobles came to the prison where he was imprisoned. After a secret conversation, King Loren finally agreed to sign. Edict of abdication, announcing his abdication, and relinquishing his strong claim to the Kingdom of Rumont.

At the time of signing, King Loren also kept his mind. He only gave up his claim to the kingdom, not including his family - as long as the royalists grew stronger in the future, his son could make a comeback to all Revenge of those who betrayed him.

The day after the signing of the abdication edict, Santos Party leader Eker Santos solemnly announced at the Sona Palace that after King Rumont abdicates, the newly established National Assembly will replace the centuries-old autocratic monarchy and establish a provisional government. At the same time, the first National Assembly was held to elect national leaders and leaders of various departments.

And today is the day when the meeting ends, and it won't be long before the results of the meeting will be announced.

Although the parliament is called the National Assembly, there are not many people who really belong to the commoners, mainly representatives of the Santos party and the old aristocracy. The representatives of the bourgeoisie and the commoners only occupy very few seats. In various cases, Charlie has been able to predict in advance the outbreak of a new civil war in the future.

Thinking of this, he looked at the zealous citizens again, and couldn't help sighing. This turmoil recognized by the old aristocracy and defined as a revolution, the ultimate winners will never be the civilians, but the revolution. The Santos of the ruling class and the entrenched forces of the old aristocracy.

To put it bluntly, the incited citizens are nothing more than tool people, and their situation will probably not be better than before the revolution.

……

In the afternoon ~www.readwn.com~ the National Assembly announced the results of the meeting.

Under the joint election of the legislators, Eker Santos, who led the Great Revolution, served as the leader of the new country, and the ministers of the Grand Court, the Ministry of the Army, the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Finance and other departments were also selected. At the same time, Santos also announced the establishment of the Constitutional Amendment Committee. Revise the constitution and improve national laws.

It is worth mentioning that the six departments of the Grand Court, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of National Life, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were divided up by the Santos Party and the old nobles respectively. The most important Grand Court and the two military departments were controlled by the nobles. , Charlie's uncle Gunilla also held the post of Deputy Secretary of the War Department.

After the unreal National Convention ended, the reorganization of the Kingdom's army, which Charles was most concerned about, began immediately, and the three front-line armies did not change.

The Santos are well aware of the hard truth that power comes from the barrel of a gun. In order to compete with the nobles who have the military superiority, they used the excuse that the capital needs to be defended, and formed a capital defense division on the basis of the existing army - the first surrender. The Second Brigade became the foundation of the division, and most of the veterans were promoted, but it was pity that Bellan, who surrendered to them at the beginning, was not promoted to deputy division commander because of his noble status.

In addition to the formation of the Capital Defense Division, Charlie's infantry regiment has also been reorganized. Although the leader of the Santos party disbanded it, but under the protection of the Ministry of War, the infantry regiment was not only not disbanded, but expanded because of "successful efforts to calm the chaos". For the independent brigade, Charlie was also quickly promoted from the colonel to the brigade commander, becoming the youngest brigade commander in the country.

Apart from his uncle, the deputy minister, other nobles who were rescued by him also have a share of the credit. This can be regarded as a repayment of Charlie's kindness to them, and both parties are cleared.
