Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

Now, Gerles, do you think human beings, no, all intelligent species are actually very sad creatures? "

"sad?"

The knife and fork that cut the steak paused, and after a while, Gerrus continued to divide the beef intently.

"If wisdom is kind of sad, then what about the creatures that they nurtured, slaughtered, and eaten? Can't sadly find an adjective?"

"Poor and sad are different. Life born on the premise of being eaten is poor, because they have no power to choose a destiny other than that. They have different kinds of wisdom. They have the power to choose and pass. There are many successful cases of trying to change fate. But they can do just that."

Walgrevo raised his glass, and elite noble rot wine reflected the intoxicated golden color in the sun.

"No matter how hard you try, no matter how you change, in the end, it just starts a new cycle along the old track. The once oppressed become the new oppressor, and among the oppressed are gestating and waiting for the next oppressor and New reincarnation. Nothing will change, nothing will be changed-is there no difference in the right to choose, this is not sad and what should it be called?"

"You can call that life."

Gerald swallowed the steak in oxtail soup and sneered.

"Volgrevo, the arrogance of eternal life, you use your point of view to speculate and comment on the way of life of the intelligent species, which is the same as humans use their own standards to comment on the life of the cicada, thinking that the way of survival is'too sad', think As a species, cicadas are worthless. There is no difference for cicadas. For cicadas, birth, survival, reproduction of offspring, and death are all the meanings of their existence. For intelligent species, "war", "peace", "continue" "Revolution", the endless trilogy of waltz, keeps repeating the history that seems to be similar, staged the mistakes that have been staged again and again, this is their survival value, their way of life, their full meaning. What is the reason Should we think that such a natural thing is sad?"

"That's why it's so sad. I yelled to return my husband, father, son, and brother, to change the old stereotypes of unfairness, dignity, and power. But I don't want to think about it, they can't change anything at all, and they may catch up with themselves. The life of such a boring thing, it is better to first thank that it is not you who died, and you still live this matter, continue to live in contentment. Anyway, what you do now will not let the dead come alive, It's better to live down to earth and make the death of the dead meaningful. By the way, just treat this as a natural disaster. Do you see anyone who wants to avenge the natural disaster? Ask the natural disaster to die. Relatives? Thank you for being too late to survive."

"Walgrave."

"what happened?"

"If you were a human being, you would definitely be qualified to compete for the title of "human debris."

"It's really ruthless. Are we anyway colleagues or companions? Why do you say so hurtful?"

The daily arrogance of "arrogance" and "jealousy" continues. Outside the warm soundproof box, a body is being carried on the carriage.

A large number of civilians who have died in the country's first good place is no good omen.

What is even more sad is that many lives have simply disappeared because of a rumor, dying without dignity, and of no value.

The cause of the incident was a rumor that "the bread is gone!" suddenly broke out in front of a bakery in the Vyborg district of St. Petersburg (the city's main workers' settlement). In just a few minutes, the women who were still in a long queue suddenly rioted. They seemed to be mad at the nearest store, smashed the door and the window, and madly robbed all food and looked like food. s things.

It’s hard to imagine people who haven’t experienced a rationing life. The phrase “the bread is gone” will have such a magic power that a group of docile citizens will turn into mobs in the blink of an eye. But for the residents of St. Petersburg at the time, it was neither a joke nor an intimidation, it meant the cessation of survival. Since the beginning of the war, a large number of young and middle-aged laborers in rural areas have been recruited to the front, and farming animals have also been requisitioned. Provinces near the front have even lost nearly 35% of their agricultural labor. For the Principality's agriculture, which is still in the traditional mode of operation, its impact is no less than that it suffered a large-scale natural disaster. Coupled with landlord exploitation, merchant hoarding, military consumption, and various losses and lags in transportation, food shortages are common in major cities. Famine has even appeared in some of the lower-tier populated areas. The capital of St. Petersburg has the most workers, and the famine is also the most serious. In the face of the increasingly severe forms, the authorities have to adopt a fixed distribution system of bread vouchers. Every morning, women face the cold winds of minus twenty degrees at the door of the food store Wait in line to wait for the sale of rations.

Food is not the only problem, because during wartime, the operation of the entire industrial system must give priority to satisfying military demand, and the output of industrial products for export has fallen sharply, once falling to 45% of normal levels. Waiting for the news of the Battle of Yamliza, the military failure made the willingness of countries to invest and trade in the Principality weaker, important industrial raw materials and mechanical processing equipment were completely cut off, and exports were like a slap in the mouth. The decline in industrial production has led to insufficient supply in the market, causing prices to soar much faster than wages, and the cost of living for ordinary people is almost five times that before the war. The high cost of living has reduced people's spending power, and the lack of high-quality raw materials and processing equipment has made the production cost extremely expensive. The two-share trend makes a large number of enterprises unsustainable, and they have gone bankrupt or closed. Many workers are unemployed or face the risk of unemployment The emotions of resentment, anxiety, and dissatisfaction have accumulated among the masses. When the rumors that "the bread is gone" that no one cares about on weekdays fall, it becomes the last straw to crush the camel's endurance. In the blink of an eye, the housewives of the housewives became riots all over the city.

The Principality's handling of such disturbances has always been fast and tough. It is reasonable to say that this kind of thing needs to be quelled, and it is indeed necessary to do so, otherwise, until the riots further expand, the difficulty of suppressing it or the losses and injuries will increase substantially. Even if it is to reduce the victims, it should be suppressed immediately.

The problem is that the principality, which has always done hard things, is really too tough in suppressing riots.

After receiving the report of the riot, the security police, the Cossack cavalry battalion guarding the capital immediately dispatched, and more and more troops joined in. Only the mounted police and the Cossack cavalry battalion have the experience of handling parades and riots. The other units are all field troops. They are trained in conventional operations. They do not know how to deal with the 100,000 people who are facing the riots. When the soldiers came up, they smashed their butts with a bayonet and used force to disperse the crowd. After panicking and injuring a few people who were pushed in the front row, the crowd behind them became "the army kills!" To kill everyone!". So the chaos became more and more unmanageable. Some of the scared and dumb guys in the chaos actually tried to **** the guns and were shot on the spot. All of a sudden there were gunshots everywhere in St. Petersburg. The crowd panicked and fled. During the escape, tens of thousands of people huddled together and fell to the ground, triggering a serious trampling incident. According to preliminary statistics afterwards, more than 2,000 people died as a result of trampling and more than 10,000 were injured. In comparison, only 35 people were shot and killed by military police.

If so far, the incident can be regarded as an unfortunate incident caused by rumors and misunderstandings. The Principality authorities have unshirkable responsibilities in the process, but it is justifiable. Then the next treatment really makes people shake their heads and sigh or fill with indignation.

With so many corpses appearing on the street, it is necessary to converge and bury. It stands to reason that this is an excellent opportunity to restore people's hearts. Even pretending to be a formal group funeral can at least comfort the people's injured hearts and restore a little trust in the government. However, a new ambassador from Albion arrived that night, and after the ceremony of submitting the national credential, a luxurious banquet attended by the Tsar and his wife would also be held~www.readwn.com~ The authorities mobilized a large number of horse-drawn carriages to pull the corpses to the mass graves outside the city. When a car body passed through the street, and the light-gold man dance and bursts of laughter were heard from the winter palace opposite the Neva River at night, the muddy ground floor was completely irritated...

Walgrevo and Gerles entered St. Petersburg with the blood stains on the street. The task given to them by the emperor was very simple: find the right person, connect, instigate resistance, create turmoil, and put pressure on the Principality government. At the same time, grasp the list of all candidates as detailed as possible. After the time is over, the relevant personnel are screened to remove the valuable personnel, and the rest are either handed over to the Principality or resolved by themselves.

It's really simple.

There is no shortage of dissatisfied people and ambitions anywhere in any era, even in peacetime, as long as you can afford it, you will soon find a bunch of sociologists, psychologists, linguists, economists, stocks Analysts, lawyers, communication experts... come up with a feasible plan, and then penetrate the target through the white gloves of various non-governmental organizations, select the backbone, manipulate the public opinion market, organize demonstrations, and launch propaganda offensives, Provoking the street, the head, the resistance, the contention-eventually the so-called "street, the head, the revolution, the life" that can even change the regime.

In a peaceful and affluent environment, it is not difficult to use the silence and selfishness of the public to achieve a riot. In this principality, which is full of firewood, with the ability of Volgrevo and Gerles, and the support of the empire behind it, it is really easy to do something.

The only thing that needs to be noted is not to overdo things and create a real revolution, which is not worth the loss.
