Galactic Conquest Manual

Chapter 96 The Vigorous Grain Requisition Movement

The siege of Vinia stopped after more than 20 conscripts were wiped out, not because Luo Yu stopped it, but because the nobles of the Double Moon Empire were not fools. After more than 20 days of siege, the Aquamarines could easily break through Vinia, but why did they not attack? It was obviously to deal with the conscripts who came to King Qin.

Now that they have figured out the goal of the Seablue Stars, the nobles will not jump into the Seablue Stars' trap.Surround yourself if you want, I will not accompany you.However, the small and medium-sized nobles certainly have such an attitude. As for the big nobles, the nobles who have inextricable ties to the Senate and the emperor's prince, they have to consider Vinia, but Vinia can't get in. up.

Now that the conscripts are no longer available, the plan to wipe out the elite of the empire has to be slowed down a step.However, it cannot be eliminated from the battlefield, so it can only be eliminated in the post-war treaty.Even if Luo Yudang has the next plan, that is to continue to besiege Vinia, let Vinia run out of ammunition and food, and finally make the imperial government lose the support of the people.Although such a plan is still cruel, Luo Yu still let Zhang Dayang carry it out.

The front line surrounded Vinia so tightly that no one could escape from it.Vinia is a super city with a population of more than 20 in the empire. Adding Roxie's 7 troops and 3 defenders in the city, there are a total of more than 30 people. Now Vinia can almost be said to have bottomed out.

Roxy said with a rather ugly face: "Your Majesty, although they agreed to our peace proposal, they imposed extremely harsh conditions. Although His Majesty was removed from the list of war criminals, His Majesty must give way to Albert. His Royal Highness, and hand over all war criminals. And the empire needs to cede all the land they currently occupy, as well as the emerald star. The empire is only allowed to keep an army of no more than 10 people, and the command power needs to be handed over to the expeditionary army. The empire must Hand over the tax completely to them, manage it by the expeditionary force, etc., this series of unequal treaties is the prerequisite for agreeing to the armistice."

Aphes suddenly widened his eyes, stood up slowly, and asked, "Albert is still alive?"

Roxie nodded, and told Aphes the information the diplomat got from there: "He is still alive, but His Highness Neo and Marshal Karachi confirmed that they were killed in the expedition to Planet Aquamarine...the expedition to Earth. In addition His Highness Albert seems to have compromised, if His Highness Albert..." Roxi looked at Afes nervously, realizing that Aphes did not mean to blame Roxi, sat back on his seat, and signaled Roxi to continue: "If His Royal Highness Albert takes over, the empire may become a vassal."

give way?vassal?All kinds of unequal treaties?Absolutely not acceptable to Afes, Afes asked sullenly: "Where are the conscripts, what about those nobles? What about the troops of the senators?"

Roxy shook his head helplessly: "Your Majesty, the conscripts are no longer afraid to go to Vinia, and the real target of the expeditionary force seems to be them, not us in Vinia. At this point, those ghostly nobles have already It can be seen that after losing more than 20 conscripts, they no longer dare to move closer to Vinia. As for the elders and those big nobles, they are gathering somewhere now, and it seems that 10 people have gathered to prepare to attack again. Vinia once."

Afes tapped lightly on the armrest of the throne, thinking in his mind, and immediately ordered: "We will also organize a breakout and act together with the 10 army."

The fate of the 10 troops of the great nobles was not so lucky to reach Vinia and help the defenders of Vinia break through.When they gathered together, it was time for the expeditionary army to fatten up and pull them out for slaughter.The first round of offensives by artillery and bombers against the 10-strong army soon began, and half of the 10-strong army was wiped out in an instant.Followed by the expeditionary soldiers who arrived on the battlefield in trucks and infantry fighting vehicles, they directly surrounded the remaining half of the army.In just a few days of fighting, this army of 10 people was completely wiped out.

It was already a few days after Afes got the information, he slumped on a chair, before the breakout started, the 10 noble army had already played GG.Afis beckoned to Roxie, supported his head, and said with a headache: "Luoxi, continue to stand by and wait for help."

Roxy said with a grim expression: "Your Majesty, Vinia has no more food."

Every meal of Aphes is very rich. After all, the emperor, the first person to take care of, obviously did not expect the problem of Viniya's lack of food, and asked: "Is there no food?"

Roxy nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, now the soldiers can only eat gruel twice a day."

After pondering for a moment, Afes said, "Ask for food from all the residents of Vinia!"

When Roxi heard that if he asked for food from the residents of Vinia, the support of the people of Aphes would be completely lost. The residents of Vinia did not have much food, so he quickly said: "Your Majesty! No! The merchants and The nobles should still have some food left over, we can ask them for it!"

When Afes heard this, the proposal was not bad, but thinking about the 10 troops in the city, Afes still had a dark face and said: "Even if all the food from the merchants is expropriated, it is not enough, and the residents of Vinia will also be expropriated." , Whoever dares to resist will be regarded as collaborating with the enemy and will be shot to death. The nobles cannot move for the time being, I need them to guard Vinia together, and let the nobles hand over all the guards in their hands. If Vinia is broken, none of them will try to escape."

"His Majesty!"

Roxy originally wanted to dissuade him earnestly, but Afes not only offended the businessman, but also lost Vinia's popular support, but Afes stubbornly said: "Do as I say! One hundred thousand troops are not In order to eat and drink, maybe they will mutiny!"

After Roxy withdrew, he shook his head helplessly, thinking: "Aren't you worried about the 'mutiny' of the residents and big businessmen of Vinia, and are those nobles reliable?"

Vinia's food requisition campaign was launched vigorously, and the doors of rooms were knocked open. Imperial soldiers pushed carts and held weapons and shouted outside: "Open the door! The imperial army is doing business!"

The door of the room opened a crack, and a woman and child looked at the imperial soldiers with trepidation on their faces: "Please... Excuse me, what's the matter?"

The imperial soldier kicked the door open, glanced at the dilapidated residence, and said, "Requisition food! Hand over all the food in your hands!"

The woman panicked, knelt on the ground and hugged the imperial soldier's thigh, tearfully said: "Our family has no food left, so we can't conscript any more! My husband has already been conscripted to serve as a soldier! Look at my husband For the sake of face! Let us go!"

The little ghost in the house hid in the corner and shivered. The imperial soldiers at this time were like beasts to him.The imperial soldier snorted coldly, kicked the woman away, and said cursingly: "If you don't hand over the food, you will be convicted of collaborating with the enemy!"

"Search!"

Imperial soldiers filed in and removed everything that could be eaten.After searching for a long time, they found a bag of wheat flour, and threw the bag of wheat flour into the cart, ready to leave.The woman rushed out the door and hugged the cart, crying heartbreakingly: "No! Our family has nothing to eat! Only this bag of wheat flour is left! What will we do if you take it away! "

The imperial soldier kicked the woman away and cursed: "Get out! Who cares about your life!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

After being kicked to the ground, the woman got up again and threw herself on the wheat flour, blocking the way of the imperial soldiers.The imperial soldiers were annoyed by this, and immediately drew out their swords, threatening: "Get out of the way! Otherwise, I will kill you!"

"This is mine... you can't take it away... woo woo woo woo..."

The imperial soldier frowned and shouted: "There are enemies inside and outside! Kill!"

"Pfft!"

He directly stabbed the sword into the woman's body, and the blood instantly stained the bag of wheat flour red.The imperial soldier shook the blood-stained sword without raising his head, put it back in the scabbard, and said, "Let's go! Next one!"

The little ghost in the house leaned on the door frame, looked at the mother lying in a pool of blood, and the group of imperial soldiers who left like beasts, ran to her side, shook the motionless mother's body, and shouted with a blank face : "Mom... Mom..., what's wrong with you, Mom? Those people took all the food from our family..."

As for another group of expropriation targets in the city of Vinia, those big and small businessmen, they are much smarter than these commoners.

"Open the door! Fellow countrymen! Collect food by His Majesty's order! All food!"

Seeing groups of ferocious imperial soldiers appearing at the door, the merchants naturally put on their clothes to be flattering, stuffed a bag of imperial gold coins for the soldiers with a smile, and then took out half of their own food reserves, saying: "Sir, You see, that's all. Even us merchants don't have any food left."

The imperial soldier weighed the money bag a few times, then glanced at the flattering businessman again, opened his mouth, and said, "Your family sells grain, how can there be only so little?"

Seeing this, the businessman quietly stuffed a bag of imperial gold coins into the soldier's hand, and said with a heartache on his face: "Sir, I don't know, before the siege of Cui Xisi, the price of food in the vicinity of Cui Xisi went up, and all the food was shipped out and sold. These are all we have in stock, no kidding, just look at the sincerity on my face, Xiaomin, don’t you?”

After the imperial soldiers got the two bags of gold coins, they nodded in satisfaction: "That's fine, I understand what you mean, brothers, let's go!"

After taking the imperial soldiers away, the businessman's face fell down: "Why aren't these greedy guys killed?"
