Ta Ta Ta-
Entering the city of Begovo, which was still under artillery fire a few minutes ago, Trond rode on his high-headed war horse, condescendingly looking down at the surrounding residents standing on both sides of the street, staring at him and his army with fearful eyes.
The streets are not clean. I mean, in addition to the garbage and excrement that must be present in this era, there are also the building materials fragments that have been bombarded by artillery shells, and a few pieces of meat that I don’t know where they come from.
Perhaps because of the deterrence of the heavily armed soldiers, the residents just stood on both sides of the street and looked at them without any physical movement, so the army continued to advance without any hindrance, and soon came to be occupied and controlled by the army landing from the port. The Governor’s Mansion, besides the Governor’s Mansion, in addition to the second brigade commander Eisner and some officers, there are also several Ansmara dressed in white robes.
Seeing that Tronde was coming, Eisner, headed by him, took a step forward and saluted him, saying: “General Olsen, our army won the Governor’s Mansion at the cost of zero casualties. Jike Anton surrendered to our army.”
“Very good.” Tronde nodded and replied. Then his eyes were placed on the Ansmara standing in front of him. He speculated in his heart that he should be the deputy governor of Begovo, and he introduced himself: “Your Excellency Rajic Anton, I am an expedition to the Holy Roman Empire. Army commander Lieutenant General Trond Olsen.”
“It’s nice to meet you, but I didn’t expect to meet in this way.” The headed man smiled awkwardly and said. Tronde naturally understood what he meant by this method, and he did not answer. Instead, he continued to look at Eisner and asked: “General Reid, do the soldiers control the entire city?”
“Yes, as soon as I occupied the Governor’s Mansion, I asked the soldiers to take over the important parts of the city.”
After speaking, Eisner turned sideways slightly, made a gesture, and said: “General Olson, let’s go first and talk.”
“Yeah.” Tronde nodded, rolled over and dismounted, and handed the horse to Ilke behind him. Following Eisner’s gesture, he walked towards the gate of the governor’s palace. After a few steps, he paused and turned to look at The Ansmara people said, “Since you all surrender actively, then follow us in. I need to get to know the situation of Begowo through a few others.”
“As you wish, General.” Several people bowed their chests and walked in behind the two Holy Roman Empire generals.
In the Governor’s Mansion, through the introduction of Deputy Governor Rajek Anton and the documents stored in the study, Trond gradually learned about the city of Begovo and the entire Begovo colony. The city of Begovo has more than 12,000 inhabitants, of which nearly 6,000 are immigrants from the Ansmara Republic, and the remaining more than 6,000 are residents of indigenous tribes who submit to the colonial nation. They admire civilization. So I abandoned my hometown and entered urban life. In addition to the residents, there are also many floating merchants and slaves who are not regarded as humans. Those slaves are either coaxed or snatched from the indigenous tribes. The number is about four thousand.
It is worth mentioning that those naturalized indigenous people did not speak for their compatriots who were reduced to slavery. They regarded themselves as orthodox citizens of the Republic of Ansmara. In order to gain the identity of those immigrants, they also followed the bully. Compatriots with complexions are even more miserable than whites.
In addition to the residents of Begovo, the colonial government has also established large and small strongholds on the vast land. In addition to the garrisons to guard against the aboriginals, there are also a varying number of immigrants and slaves in each stronghold. Living under the shelter of the garrison, go to nearby resource points to work.
If these people are added up, there are probably nearly 8,000 orthodox Ansmara in the entire Begovo confinement, but if those who join the army are deducted, the remaining civilians may only be more than 5,000.
Trond was a little puzzled. Why are there so many immigrants living in Begowo? If there are so many people in only one, then the number of other people will not add up. The government of the Republic of Ansmara Would you agree that so many people leave their homes and come to live in this place?
Perhaps he saw through Trond’s doubts, without him asking, the surrendered vice-governor directly answered him.
It turns out that not every colonial nation has so many immigrants. Among the five colonial nations established by the Republic, Begowo Nation can be said to be the most populous existence, and the least of the other four nations is the one that has not been expanded for long. Harus led only nearly a thousand immigrants. Under the threat of indigenous tribes, they hid in a small city with only wooden walls and shivered; the most was the Zantaro led with only more than three thousand immigrants, and the other two led the number of immigrants. It is only between one thousand and two thousand.
However, with the exception of Begowo, because the governor’s policy is to trade with the indigenous tribes (because they can’t fight each other, they can only get along with each other in a peaceful way), avoiding the outbreak of war, and the other lands are in a state of fighting with the indigenous people all year round. The immigrants, afraid of dying in the war, went to settle in Begowo, so Begowo became the most populous of the five colonial territories.
So many immigrants have now become the object of the rule of the Holy Roman Empire.
Thinking of the fact that there are so many strongholds in Begovo’s conservancy, Trond has a headache. In addition to strongholds, the missing indigenous coalition forces are also a greater threat. He thought for a while, and decided to let Rajik Anton write letters to the chiefs of various strongholds as the deputy governor of the colonial nation~www.mtlnovel.com~ to tell them that the city of Begovo had surrendered to the Holy Roman Empire, and asked them to Take the initiative to surrender.
In Trond’s view, people who can leave their homes and come to this unfamiliar continent will definitely cherish their lives more. On the one hand, they surrender to save their lives, and on the other, they stand firm on resistance. As long as they are smart, they will do the right thing. decision.
And the fact is true. A few days later, the messengers sent by Rajek rode back one after another on a fast horse, telling the decisions of the chiefs of the strongholds to Trond. The chiefs of those strongholds did not want to die, and could retain their wealth and status after surrendering. Under the temptation of the conditions, they all decided to respond to Rajik and formally surrender to the Holy Roman Empire, lowering the blue-bottomed wolf-head flag of the Republic of Ansmara, and replacing them with a double-headed eagle representing the Holy Roman Empire.
In addition to agreeing to persuade to surrender, in order to show their sincerity, they also reported to Trond about Governor Ajit of Begowo and the movement of the tribal coalition forces. This made Trond very happy. It feels like he is really annoying.
Ajit and the Horde coalition forces did not know the news of the expeditionary force breaking the city of Begovo at this time. They are coming from the south, trying to regain supplies in the city of Begovo, recruit more soldiers, and then attack the expeditionary force. , And this time, there were dozens of more war elephants in their army returning from the south.
