Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 47: go south to counter the rebellion

(Although I am very sorry, but when I was doing the population setting, I accidentally dropped the total population to zero, from more than 20 million to more than 2 million. As a result, the population I wrote earlier has become extremely small, hereby corrected. )

In the past three months of training, many things have happened elsewhere in the country.

The first thing was the Constitutional Amendment Committee, which was created by the National Assembly with great fanfare. After constant quarrels and mutual compromises, the first constitution of the emerging Rumont Republic was finally released. This constitution is also known as the "Constitution of 1750". .

The constitution is based on the laws of the king's period, abolished the unreasonable regulations and serf system in the old laws, declared that all citizens are equal, and also abolished the hereditary system of the nobility, but in order not to further stimulate the nerves of the nobility, it did not directly cancel Titles and territories of nobles, whose territories are nationalized upon the death of existing nobles.

Needless to say, this is definitely the result of compromise between the two sides.

In addition, in order to reflect the spirit of democracy, the constitution increased the existing National Assembly to five hundred seats, and in addition to the original members, the remaining members will be elected from the provinces in proportion to the population of the fifteen provinces of the Republic - thus, the national The Parliament is also known as the Council of Five Hundred.

The currency reform mentioned earlier has also achieved results. Under the strong promotion of the National Assembly, the paper money named as the national currency was printed and issued on a large scale. The national currency is directly linked to the silver coin. The copper coins were replaced by national points.

Although the commoners and nobles expressed resistance to this, but under the government's strong push, paper money soon became the currency circulating in the market, and metal currency took the opportunity to be collected into the national treasury.

After the currency reform, the Santos government also began to actively implement economic reforms in an attempt to restore the current economic crisis, but with little success.

The second thing is the new enemy in the eastern part of the republic. It was said earlier that after learning that the king of Loren was overthrown, Becky Kingdom, the queen's maiden, began to prepare the army to help the king regain the throne. After the family was expelled, the Becky Kingdom officially declared war on the National Assembly, and the Becky Army, which was already ready, crossed the border and entered Ankore Province, northeast of the Ankerton Region, where the United Hildi Army would fight. The defeat of the Second Army also led to the fall of the flanks of the entire northern battlefield.

On the other side, in the war against the Kingdom of Okalos in the west, under the command of Marshal Debra, Charlie's grandfather, the Republic army captured the largest city in the east of the Kingdom of Okalos and captured nearly 10,000 enemy troops. Under the great defeat, King Okalos was forced to accept the terms of the peace agreement proposed by the National Assembly: compensation of 15 million silver coins as military expenses, and an additional payment of 5 million silver coins as ransom for the redemption of prisoners of war and lost land, a total of 20 million silver coins, The two sides maintain their pre-war border.

Twenty million silver coins is not an amount that the Kingdom of Okalos can pay in a short period of time, so they need to repay all the reparations within ten years. In order to raise the reparations for the war, King Okalos raised the domestic tax rate, resulting in unbearable repayment. The heavy burdened civilians broke out in revolution and followed in the footsteps of the Rumon Kingdom - these are all things to come.

After the end of the western battlefield, the Third Army did not have time to repair it, so it went north to support the northern battlefield under the urging of the National Assembly. Most of the nobles did not dare to let the king return to Ankerton. They all participated in the action to force the king to abdicate. Returning to Ankerton, they will all be subject to the harshest reckoning.

You know, the king now has the support of his father-in-law Becky Kingdom, and he doesn't have to worry about the nobles and the army they control against him at all.

The third thing is about the rebellion in the south. Although the army of the Santos party successfully suppressed several small-scale rebels and ransacked the houses of the nobles and bourgeoisie who supported the rebellion, they were soon met with the rebellion led by the Prodon military government and other rebels. The combined siege of the army, in a disastrous field battle, the republican army was launched a large-scale charge from the flank by the rebel cavalry, and was successfully broken through, and the rout quickly swept the entire battlefield.

The National Assembly was shocked by the defeat in the two battlefields in the north and the south. They hurriedly urged the Third Army to go north for support, and at the same time demanded that Charles in Reed Province go south to defend against the rebels and prevent the opponent from taking the opportunity to go north. They also knew that Charlie's Seventh Brigade had less than ten thousand troops and could not resist the rebels several times their own, so at the same time, they also began to issue conscription orders, calling on the people to arm themselves to defend the regime.

Under this situation, the atmosphere in Ankerton became extremely tense. Various rumors appeared on the streets, and people were panicking. What's more deadly, there were rumors that King Loren had reached a consensus with the southern rebels, and the two sides were ready to The rumors of a joint attack on the new republic from the north and the south have undoubtedly deepened people's fears.

Meanwhile, after being ordered to defend, the 7th Brigade moved from its garrison and marched along the old arterial road to the southeast towards Devon, which had been reduced to a battle between the rebels and the National Army, which had been armed in response to the call. On the front line, the Capital Division was also besieged there and fled miserably.

After several months of development, the rebels took almost complete control of the coastal provinces of Provence and Bevin, and the eastern part of Mins on the border with Pros was also brought under their control. The government is the main force, and it has received foreign equipment support. It has nearly 9,000 soldiers in five divisions.

On the other hand, in the Republic, apart from Charlie's Seventh Brigade, the only troops deployed in the south were the National Army and the lingering Capital Division who were armed in response to the call. These National Army took up arms and went to the battlefield with their blood , they did not receive special training, nor did they have sophisticated weapons and sufficient logistical supplies, their only role was to delay the rebels' march north.

December 3, the early winter season.

The Seventh Brigade led by Charles entered Devon Province, and after entering Devon Province, he also obtained more information on the enemy and the enemy who were fighting on this land.

In Devon Province alone, the armed National Army numbered nearly 100,000 people. The Capital Division, commanded by Charles' old boss, Berland, also took the opportunity to gather many National Army soldiers and restore the strength to more than 10,000 people. , but although they have an advantage in numbers, they are still being beaten and retreated when they are fighting the rebels, and they can only build defense lines with towns and cities.

The rebels deployed only three divisions of more than 50,000 people in Devon Province, of which, in Charles' view, only two cavalry divisions of more than 5,000 cavalrymen and their 30-odd artillery pieces could pose a threat to him.
