Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 28: hesitate

After some conversation, Aurel left here with a belly full of surprise, and went to the Clos Manor to pick up his sister.

Charlie was not idle either. He went to the place where the soldiers stored their spoils, absorbed all the gold and silver jewelry that changed hands after the rebel thugs robbed them, and converted them into system gold coins. After all the conversion, his assets also increased from the original 1545 gold coins. To 8200, a full increase of 6655 gold coins.

Looking at the line of numbers on the book, Charlie was a little annoyed for a while. He felt that he should wait for the rebels to rob most of the noble mansions and manors before making a move, but he thought about it again, according to those who killed the red-eyed rebel thugs. Urinary, they will not only **** property, but also extend their claws to nobles, the timing of his arrival should be said to be just right.

He now has a sufficient balance to cover the maintenance fee of the infantry regiment. The next thing to worry about is the counterattack of the rebels and thugs in the city. After the Sona Palace is captured, the enemy will definitely focus on the noble district. Before that, he had to do something.

Without Charlie's orders, the soldiers of the infantry regiment consciously cleaned the battlefield, collected the abandoned rifles and ammunition on the corpses on the streets, and then separated the corpses of the enemy and the enemy and burned them together. The season is over. In the summer, the temperature is rising day by day, if the corpses are left exposed on the streets, sooner or later a terrible plague will be triggered when the corpses are decomposed.

While burning the corpses, the soldiers also reinforced the dismantled roadblocks with the assistance of the remaining noble guards. The soldiers of the skirmish company also changed into civilian clothes and followed the defeated thugs into the city controlled by the other side, serving as Charlie's Watch post.

In order to better cope with the upcoming battles in the future, Charlie temporarily requisitioned an aristocratic manor outside the noble district and set it up as the regimental headquarters. The owner of this manor had left the capital and returned to the fief long before the riot. Now, only the steward and some servants and guards were left behind, and they were all killed after the rebels came in, so no one could object.

When Charlie walked into the hall of the manor's mansion with the general's guard, he happened to see Staff Siller directing the staff sergeants to organize the hall into a headquarters. Seeing Charlie come in, Seeler picked up a stack of documents on the table and quickly. Step by step, we came up and reported:

"Sir, all the prisoners under interrogation have confessed, and now their confessions."

With that said, he handed the document in his hand to Charlie, who took it and simply flipped through it. It was filled with the confessions of the prisoners under interrogation. While he read it, Siller explained:

"According to their confessions, the city of Ankerton is basically under the control of the Santos Party, and most of the troops of the former Second Brigade followed Brigadier General Berlan to surrender to the Santos Party, and refused to attack the royal palace. Officers and some of the nobles Soldiers were executed, and the rest were mostly determined to rebel."

"A captured rebel captain stated that at least 5,000 men in the 2nd Brigade had surrendered, and after being purged, there should have been 4,780 people left, including experienced artillerymen and captured soldiers. Artillery - the sounds of artillery that we hear from inside the city are from artillery captured by the enemy."

“In addition to the surrendered officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade, the Santos Party also formed a so-called Workers Commando. This team is the core force of the Santos Party. The members are all workers from the Eastern District who followed the party before the riots began. There are about 500 people, and after the expansion, the scale of more than 1,000 people is maintained."

"These two armed forces are the main forces of the Santos Party. In addition to them, there are armed citizens who are under the leadership of the reorganization. The number of armed citizens is not counted. It is certain that the weapons they use are only part of the military camps in the capital. Most of the people captured in the armory were using old-fashioned muskets, and some of them participated in the attack on the noble district, and we also captured some old-fashioned arquebuses."

Speaking of the latter, his words were full of disdain. In the current era, arquebuses can already be regarded as antiques, and now the mainstream still relies on flintlock guns fired by flint.

Charlie put away the documents and asked, "Have they explained the origin and leadership of the Santos party?"

"Yes." Siller replied: "The Santos Party is a small group that has emerged in the Eastern District in the past few years. It is said that they returned from studying in the Eldon Republic. The leader is called Eker Santos, and the name of the party is It is named after its leader."

"The Santos Party has been advocating the so-called democracy, freedom and equality among the civilians, and has won the support of the workers of the Eastside. The cause of this riot is also because they encouraged the citizens to go to the Heroes' Square to protest and demonstrate. After the riot broke out, they proposed to be more radical. The slogan - overthrow the king, establish a democratic republic, and has won the support of many citizens. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"In addition, they openly claimed that this was a revolution, and that the king's life was removed."

"It seems that this is a group organization that is good at demagogic people." Charlie commented.

Although he is hostile to the Santos party, he still praises the ability of the Santos party. This world is different from the French Revolution in history. Although democratic ideas such as natural human rights have been proposed, they are in danger of being severely banned. The idea has not been widely circulated, and the countries are still in the concept of the supremacy of the monarch.

The fact that the Santos party can provoke a revolution against the king in such a country is a testament to their ability.

Siller then reminded: "Sir, if we decide to stick to this place, after the fall of Sona Palace, we will face the siege of the armed citizens of the entire city of Ankerton. I suggest that it is better to plan early."

Charlie didn't answer him directly, he asked instead, "How much ammunition do we have in stock?"

"We have seized many rifles and ammunition abandoned by the enemy. If we count the original reserves, if we distribute them equally to each soldier, each person can shoot five or six rounds."

After finishing speaking, Siller continued: "If we can't get ammunition supplies, it's pointless for us to stay here, and the enemy still has artillery, and artillery is a great threat to us in street fighting, even if they don't use grape bombs. It can cause a lot of casualties to our army.”

Charlie knew Siller's good intentions, but the retreat was not so easy to retreat. So many nobles in the noble district retreated together, they would definitely bring large and small bags of property, and the marching speed would only be slowed down. If they leave the city After being overtaken by enemy pursuers, it will only cause greater casualties.

For a while, Charlie also hesitated.
