Chapter 100 The Trend of History

As if they didn't care about hiding anymore, the townspeople lit torches and gradually formed a line in the town.

From Alicia's bird's-eye view, on the main roads of the town, the torches formed several long dragons, spreading in the town and flocking straight to the mayor's mansion.

Looking at it from this perspective, there is an unspeakable sense of shock.

Alicia has never seen anything like this, and everyone is united and united.

"The power of the people is always the strongest." Char's voice came from beside her, "An enemy of the will of the people is fundamentally doomed to failure."

Alicia nodded approvingly, "The reason why Napoleon was able to lead France to victory in the European siege was also because he represented the will of the people."

During their conversation, the battle between the Sacilians and the West French army began. The Sacilians had not received professional military training, so they could only charge upwards with a reckless spirit that was not afraid of death.

But the army of West France is different, just this time the impact can see the gap.

They are arranged in a horizontal line or a column, and their firepower is more concentrated. They even shoot alternately.

So the casualty ratio was high at the beginning.

But just as Hart said, Sasili only counted the young and middle-aged, and the number of them was ten times that of these West French soldiers.

This is not counting the old people, women, and some fifteen or sixteen-year-old children among them. This is more than ten times, twenty times possible.

"It's astonishingly bloody." Seeing the crowd of people stepping forward, Xia Ya said with emotion.

Alicia also nodded in approval. She looked at those sacrifices and shifted her eyes unbearably.

After a while, she said.

"Char, does the world after death really exist?"

Xia raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"I know the god of death exists, but I still have no real sense of the world after death." Alicia said, "Or, can you tell me what the world after death is like?"

Shaar smiled, "Arthur once asked me this question too."

Alicia looked up at him.

"When you had a fever, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep, so he came down to ask me." Shaar continued.

"Then how did you answer?" Alicia said.

Shaar shook his head, "I didn't answer whether he existed, but asked him a few questions.

I asked him to imagine a world where the afterlife didn't exist.

People's death is the end. For the living, when loved ones die, people lose the chance to see them again forever.

For the dead, once they die, only the remnants of their relatives and friends remain in the world, but when they also die, the world will completely erase their existence.

A person's life is coming to an end in this way, life is meaningless, and death is also meaningless. "

Alicia's complexion gradually became dignified.

"Then I asked him to imagine a world where the afterlife exists.

For the living, they know that their relatives and friends will live a better life in another world, and they will eventually have a chance to meet again.

For people after death, death is not the end, everything they do is meaningful, sinners are punished, and good people can live a life of carefree and enjoyment all the time.

In your opinion, which world would you rather live in? "

"Of course it's the latter," Alicia said.

"Yes."

Shaar stared at the town in the distance, watched all the deaths, and murmured with deep eyes.

"Many parts of the world have legends about the afterlife, such as the Vikings, from whom Norse mythology originated.

They believed that after they died in battle, they would enjoy fine wine and food in the Hall of Valor of the Great God Odin.

So they were not afraid of death, proud of death in battle, and were feared by many people at that time.

The Celts actually had a similar afterlife legend, which is also the source of their bravery.

The world after death is a beautiful longing derived from people's ultimate fear of death.

It is a romance unique to human beings.

It is also proof that humanity has once again challenged the unbeatable.

So, long, long ago, when I didn't know the god of death, or whether the Hades existed, I always believed in the existence of the afterlife.

The current Underworld was also established in response to human wishes. "

Alicia nodded. Listening to Shaar's story, she inevitably began to fantasize about the world after death. There was a little hope in her eyes, "My father is a good man. He did a lot of things to save the people. In that world, he should be able to live a better life.

You don't have to care about those intrigues, and you don't have to worry about it anymore. "

"Perhaps, I met your mother again." Xia Ya whispered.

Alicia's eyes were slightly deep, and she whispered with blurred eyes, "That's so beautiful."

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There was an astonishing loud noise from the fjord. In Alicia's sight, many shells drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the houses in the town, knocking down their houses, but they did not explode.

This may be because of the range, so there is no gunpowder inside. After all, the small town of Sasili has a long depth, and they can only shoot in the fjord.

It may also be because explosive bombs filled with gunpowder have not been popularized yet, and the warship technology of the Spanish Empire should be more advanced.

The main function of these artillery is to attack the city walls and deal with ships. Like a ship at sea, as long as a big hole is punched, it is basically scrapped.

But it's not enough to deal with such flexible people. If you don't use flowering bombs, the lethality will be limited.

At this time, Alicia saw that the two sides of the mountain also fired artillery fire, but not at the town, but at the ships docked in the fjord.

Relying on the terrain of Sacili, placing artillery on both sides of the mountain and in the small town is enough to form a dense artillery network that will cover all ships entering the fjord.

The entrance of the fjord is limited in size, and the number of ships entering can only be limited to a certain number, so as long as there is enough artillery fire, Sassily is enough to remain invincible.

Obviously, after entering Sacily, the army of West France did not dismantle the artillery on both sides in order to be able to defend against Britannia's attack.

But now, the artillery was snatched back by the Sacilians, which became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Perhaps it was because the shells were not aimed well the first time, so the shells shot into the fjord, but then, there was an extremely dense artillery bombardment.

Some ships were hit and a big hole was blasted out. Seeing this, the rest of the ships knew that staying here was also a target, so they turned their bows and retreated out of the fjord.

On the other side, Alicia saw the angry crowd stepping on the corpse of their companions and storming the mayor's mansion.

Fearing the bravery of the Sacilians, the soldiers of West France put down their weapons and chose to surrender.

The lieutenant colonel Paul and the mayor of Bangira were caught out by the crowd and pressed in front of Hart.

He was also involved in the riot and appears to be its leader.

"The ending has already been decided." Xia Ya said.

"After this battle, the Sacilians will guard the town by themselves. With the help of the terrain here, it should be safe for a certain period of time."

Alicia nodded, but then she frowned suspiciously and said, "I have another doubt, after Hart and those people killed those soldiers, you said that the large army from West France was coming soon.

Why haven't they come yet? "

Alicia seemed to realize something, looked at Xia, "You made a move, right?"

"Just let them take a little detour on the sea, the sea is unpredictable, isn't it?"

Alicia looked at Shaar quietly, with brilliance in her eyes, "Actually, you don't need to trouble yourself like this."

Shaar said slowly, "Helping them drive away these invaders directly is only a temporary help to them.

But if they themselves awaken this fighting spirit, then the people here will never become anyone's slaves. "

Alicia nodded approvingly, "If all Britannia are like this, then no one will ever dare to invade our land."

Shaar stared at Alicia, with an unknown brilliance in his eyes, "But by then, your royal family may no longer exist."

Alicia opened her eyes slightly, as if thinking of something, she fell silent without saying a word.

After a while, she said, "In the future, this kind of thing will happen, right?

That's how the Napoleon story you told Arthur began.

The king named Louis XVI was beheaded by the angry people, and the republic of the Roman period was reopened. "

"This is the torrent of history." Shaar said, "As the times change, the decline of absolute monarchy is inevitable."

"So you hinted at him with the story of Napoleon." Alicia murmured softly.

"Just to let him understand something." Shaar said.

Alicia fell silent again, and after a while, she raised her head, with a little melancholy in her eyes, "Really, is there no way?"

"There is a way. At least, it can give the royal family a decent ending." Xia Ya said, "But what kind of ending the royal family and this country will ultimately go to depends on the child's own choice."

Alicia lowered her head, making it difficult to see her expression, or what was going on in her heart.

But she took a few steps forward, hugged Shaar's waist, and pressed her face against his chest, which could give her a sense of security.

Xia Ya's hand also fell on her back, stroking the magical curve along her spine, and finally landed on her waist and eyes. Alicia's curve is so superior that any man can indulge in it.

But Xiaya didn't have any evil thoughts, just hugged her quietly, giving her silent comfort.

"What if he didn't make the right choice?" Alicia whispered.

"This is what we need to teach him now." Shaar laughed, "Let him learn how to make choices."

Alicia was silent, without words.

At this time, Shaar said with some doubts, "Speaking of which, you don't eat too little, why are you so thin, and there is no meat on your waist."

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly said.

"It turns out that it has grown to the place where it should grow."

Alicia's body tensed at that moment, her ears were flushed, her skin was also flushed, and the eyes she looked at Xia were also a little hazy.
