Vol 4 Chapter 60: collapse

After about half an hour of understanding, Zhou Ming nodded.

The reason the Duke of Paris raised his troops to rebel.

There are actually two reasons for the simplicity.

Money, and ambition.

And personal ambitions account for most.

The Duke of Paris, who controlled the 300,000 Kingdom Field Army in his hand, wanted to take the city of King Dillo and sit on the throne and replace it.

The pharmaceutical production plant, as well as the tens of millions of gold coins owned by the royal family and various nobles, will all enter his pocket.

With this huge sum of money, the Duke of Paris can expand his armaments, suppress the forces that do not obey him in the country, and have the ability to resist interference from outside forces, and even expand abroad.

In the final analysis, it was money that caused the disaster.

So I would like to ask, how much money is the royal family and multiple joined families now, so that Duke Paris is so jealous?

Hundreds of millions of gold coins.

Through the pharmaceutical export industry, the royal family joined the family and made hundreds of millions of gold coins.

Especially in the half year when Zhou Ming left, after the pharmaceutical production plant scrapped more than 100,000 medicinal materials, the workers carried out strict operations according to the operation process provided by Zhou Ming. The 88 processes were all cautious, and finally Zhou Ming was not in the factory Under the circumstances, a batch of "excellent" quality [sedative agent] was produced.

After that, it was out of control. Due to the sufficient supply of medicinal materials, in just half a year, the pharmaceutical production plant produced more than 1 million bottles of various types of pharmaceuticals.

These potions were sold to hundreds of surrounding kingdoms. Even if the net profit per bottle is 100 gold coins, 100 million gold coins will be credited.

Among them, the royal family alone has earned more than 20 million gold coins.

King Abdullah's royal family became the most wealthy royal family among the hundreds of kingdoms around him.

With sufficient funds, the King can do more.

For example, to renew the equipment of the Wangdu Defence Army, improve their treatment, and expand the number of people ... The power of the royal family is increasing.

Duke Paris is anxious this time, on the one hand asking for more military expenses, demanding to increase the treatment of frontier soldiers; on the other hand is also stepping up preparations, inciting celebrity officers, ready to start!

Not bad.

At this time, the Duke of Paris, driven by his ambition, was like a "gambler." Especially after seeing his winnings decreasing, he decided to bet all the chips. He planned to move out before his own odds were greater. Remove all resistance!

Realize the dream that has been done for decades!

but……

It has been more than three months since the start of the soldiers. The 300,000 troops brought by the Duke of Paris, although it was very smooth in the beginning, except for sporadic resistance, fell all the way down. people.

However, under Dillo City, after facing fierce resistance, due to heavy casualties and the emergence of deserters one after another, there are now fewer than 200,000 rebels.

Whether it is combat power or morale, it has reached the end of the crossbow.

And King James is still loved by some people, including teachers and students of the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, at least more than 200 magicians, spontaneously assisted in the defense of the city, causing considerable casualties to the rebels.

More than one hundred plus families connected to the royal family for their interests have contributed their efforts. The rebels brought by the Duke of Paris, and the waves of shock launched, have been blocked again and again.

Now Zhou Ming intends to solve this group of rebels, but it is not really a difficult thing.

It's not that he's talking about it in five days, and he's not talking nonsense, but because he has this certainty.

...

After a little rest for a long time, after the magic is completely restored.

That night, Zhou Ming took a "special operation group" and launched the operation.

There are five members in the special operations group: Zhou Ming, Sails, Princess Hiviness, Nabe and another great magician named Campbell.

A combination of three methods and World War II.

The role of the mage is to help set fire, and the role of the warrior is to take charge of the wind and fight against the powerful swordsmen in the rebels.

Not bad.

Zhou Ming intends to burn all the grain of 200,000 rebels outside the city.

These grains include grass for horses and livestock, rations for soldiers, and some kitchen cooking facilities (such as bakeries).

In addition, the weather is getting colder and colder. Zhou Ming intends to burn a group of sheepskin tents and let some rebel soldiers spend the cold wind and snow.

Burning grain and grass?

In fact, this method was considered by the defending generals in the city of Dillo when the rebels first began to siege, but it was not adopted.

Duke Paris is an old man, how come he doesn't know the importance of protecting grain and grass?

Therefore, the grain and grass in the rebels are not only stored in dozens of stacks, but each storage point is guarded by soldiers and burnt down, but only a few tenths of grain and grass are lost, which is not harmful to the overall situation.

But Zhou Ming intends to burn all the 23 grain and grass storage points!

If there is enough gasoline in his three space rings (gasoline is provided by the Continental Chamber of Commerce), then burn a batch of tents and horse stables.

It was just that the black light was blinding at night. There were 23 grain and grass storage points, and the road could not be seen clearly. How did he burn?

Don't worry, there is a system navigation, plus this morning scanned the layout of the entire rebel army barracks, Zhou Ming just closed his eyes, can also find the storage place of grain and grass there.

Everything is ready and the barbecue party begins.

Zhou Ming, wearing the "flying armor", led the arson team and raged all night.

This night, all the grain and grass in the rebels were completely cleaned by Zhou Ming.

It also killed hundreds of senior swordsmen and five magicians in the rebels, burned more than 5,000 rebel tents, and a large number of siege equipment.

In the raging fire, the rebel soldiers burned countless.

The dazzling fire, the guards and soldiers standing on the head of Dillo City, cheered loudly.

Early the next morning.

The rebels outside the city retreated twenty miles away, mourning everywhere, and morale was extremely low.

According to the existing grain reserves in their hands, they can only last up to three days.

By then the cold and hungry rebels will collapse without a fight.

However, there is no need to wait for the other party to completely break the grain. Zhou Ming resolved the rebel army on the third morning.

From the hands of General Hill, he took the head of Duke Paris.

All the remaining 80,000 rebels announced their surrender.

How is this going?

Why did Duke Paris suddenly hang up?

Earl Hill, who had a lot of grudges with Zhou Ming, how did he suddenly turn back and kill his master?

The reason is that Zhou Ming persuaded him ... the night after the fire.

Faced with Zhou Ming who suddenly appeared in his tent, Earl Hill's first reaction was to startle, and while shouting the sword, he shouted at the guard.

"Stop calling, this tent was silenced by me. No matter how loud you are, people outside can't hear it." Zhou Ming said.

"You ... what do you want to do?"

Earl Hill drew his sword, facing Zhou Ming, his face full of panic.

Zhou Ming made some remarks and listed a few reasons and conditions for the other party to nod their heads in agreement, kill the Duke of Paris and lead the remnant army to surrender.

One, the rebels of the Duke of Paris will be defeated, there is no doubt.

The second, with the current financial resources of the king and the support of many nobles, will follow the Duke of Paris and will end sooner or later.

Three, if Earl Hill is anyway, after resolving the rebels, his crimes can be cancelled in a lump sum, and even the title and territory can be retained, and it is possible to get a slice of the "pharmaceutical export industry" in the kingdom.

In the end, Earl Hill had only one son, Martin. After the rebellion failed, if there was not enough financial support and no good education in the magic school, Martin was destined to have limited achievements and could not become a powerful magician, because then Martin had a bottle of 120 gold coins. [The Soothing Potion] can't afford it.

Zhou Mingdao said: "Count Hill, you followed the rebellion of the Duke of Paris. The ultimate purpose is not for your son? If it fails? The family is ruined, the son has fallen into a foreign country, and the rich is no longer. It can only struggle at the bottom ... Such an ending, Are you willing to see it? "

These words touched the Earl of Hill, who immediately said that he would do the work of the soldiers and take the head of the Duke of Paris.

So in the early morning of that day, Earl Hill summoned most of the middle and lower rank officers and told them the truth:

"The king did not treat us badly. The king sent 3 million stone military grain to the border every year, and hundreds of thousands of stone sand and wood chips were mixed by the old financial manager Lao Fu."

"Old Ford was killed ~ www.readwn.com ~ It was the Duke Lord who sent me to kill, more than 8 million gold coins, all of us flesh and blood of the border guards!"

"After the new chief financial officer came up, the food the king gave us was not only new food, but also not mixed with a grain of sand."

"Master Duke feels that this is inappropriate, and people put sand in it. He hopes everyone will continue to hate the king."

"Not only that, the Duke reduced the salary that should be paid to everyone, all used to buy weapons, bought a batch of inferior winter clothes, saying that this is the king's winter gift for you, and those financial managers sent it, Good quality winter clothes are all stored in the warehouse ... "

"This rebellion is actually a conspiracy of the Duke, and all of us are tools he uses."

"Let's think about the brothers who died in battle. The Duke is sad except for insults and anger?"

"The king did not let us down, we were kept in the dark ... The Duke was taking our blood to realize his ambitions!"

"Brothers, kill the Duke and avenge the dead brother!"

All the middle and lower rank officers were stunned.

They did not expect that the truth of the matter was actually like this.

Their dissatisfaction with the royal family and their anger towards the king turned out to be the effect of the Duke ’s intention to incite and guide.

Look at the performance of Lord Duke after the defeat in battle, exactly as Earl Hill said: This is a selfish and ambitious ambitionist.

They immediately roared:

"Kill the Duke!"

"Kill the Duke!"

After gaining the trust of most of the officers, Count Hill rushed into the tent where the Duke was located, and cut off his head in the stunned eyes of Duke Paris.

...

In this way, the rebellion, which lasted for more than three months, eventually took less than three days to disintegrate by Zhou Ming.
