Chapter 886 Princess Anastasia

“Your Majesty, as of now, we have arranged all 108 revolutionary strongholds in the Silver Lion Kingdom. Among them, 62 Revolutionary Guards have completed their missions. The local aristocratic private armies have been defeated, and the lord has been arrested, or The battle was shot…”

An officer stood in front of Grum, reporting loudly the news from all over the place.

In some strange way, Princess Anastasia, who took the initiative to send into the “enemy’s nest”, stared at Grumm bitterly, like an angry warbler.

This made Gurum couldn’t help but glance at her a few times.

Compared with the residents of Huiguang Continent, her skin is so fair that she can be called “rare”, even when compared with the vast majority of northerners.

Her features are delicate and beautiful, and the tip of her small nose is slightly warped. Even when she is angry, she doesn’t seem to have a fierce feeling, but rather looks quite cute.

“… The 32 Revolutionary Guards have not yet captured the castles or manors of the nobles, and are still in a stalemate… The 12 Revolutionary Guards have encountered certain setbacks, and the casualties are relatively serious. It will take some time to reorganize the team and initiate the first The second attack…”

“In addition, there are two Revolutionary Guards. Due to the inadequate intelligence work done in the early stage, the enemy’s strength was greatly underestimated. The uprising completely failed. Even the’training team’ suffered casualties. The headquarters has sent reinforcements… ”

The last paragraph gave Princess Anastasia a happy smile. She waved a small fist and whispered:

“Deserve it! This is the end of rebellion, you will definitely be punished!”

The soldiers in the hall all glared at her.

The princess’s maid, a short girl named “Evennie”, stood shivering.

It can be seen that she really wants to cover her princess’s mouth so as not to cause trouble.

Gurum glanced at this special captive and asked coldly:

“His Royal Highness, I wonder if you have ever thought about why there are so many civilians in the Silver Lion Kingdom who are willing to be your “rebellious”? Instead of supporting the rule of His Majesty ‘Leon Turner V’?”

“Even in this city under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family, there are countless civilians who are willing to do everything they can to help us and act as our eyes and ears…”

This sharp question caused Princess Anastasia to be speechless, not knowing how to answer.

Grumm “hummed”:

“Let me tell you the answer… because they are going to be unable to survive!”

The princess was silent for a moment, and suddenly defended her stiffly:

“But this is not the fault of the nobles. The’black inflammation’ disease caused a reduction in the production of black potatoes and led to this great famine…Everyone’s life is not easy, and this is not a reason to be rebellious…”

“is it?”

Gurum sneered, pointed to a thin high school student, and said:

“His Royal Highness, let me introduce you a gentleman… This is Mr. Michelin. He is also the future’Vice Speaker’ of the Silver Lion Republic Council. You can listen to what he said.”

Michelin stood up and leaned slightly:

“His Royal Highness, it is nice to meet you… As far as I know, in this “Yingbird Revolution”, among all the 62 aristocratic territories that have succeeded in the revolution, almost every warehouse of the aristocratic castle, or All of their manor houses stored piles of grain, and our staff found a total of 130,000 tons of grain.”

“And this part of the aristocratic territory only accounts for 1/5 of the entire kingdom…According to our estimation, the stock of food in the entire Silver Lion Kingdom should not be less than 900,000 tons. If you save a little, it will be enough for the civilians of the entire kingdom. , Eat for half a year.”

“In other words, this terrible famine will not affect the lives of the nobles at all. Your so-called’everyone’s life is not easy’ is not true for the nobles. Only the common people are the only ones who have trouble. To a certain extent, for the nobles, this is a super good opportunity to accumulate wealth.”

“Recently, the nobles have joined forces to restrict the supply of food and strictly restrict the import of food. In just one and a half months, the price of food has soared by more than five times… Through this despicable method, most of the civilian’s property has been destroyed. After the search was empty, more and more people were hungry and starved.”

Following Michelin’s narrative, the hall became quieter and quieter, everyone was listening attentively, and the officers’ faces were already full of anger.

“What shocked me most was that according to statistics from the Haichao Chamber of Commerce, there were 2765 people who starved to death in the Moon of Remnant Winter alone… The above are all well-documented figures, and they only count the entire kingdom. 1/3 of the towns…I personally believe that the true number must far exceed 2,765 people, at least 8,000 people, and the highest may even reach as many as 10,000 people…”

An officer couldn’t help but yelled:

“Gosh, this is definitely a crime!”

This immediately triggered an angry condemnation.

“Yes, these damned nobles should be cleared into the forced labor camp, so that they can pay a heavy price for the sins they have committed…”

“Oh my god, I can’t believe it. The great famine just showed signs of starvation. So many civilians have already starved to death… If one or two months pass, wouldn’t there be 100,000, 200,000, or even 300,000 people starved to death?”

“In the Thousand Lakes Republic, if there is a case of starving people to death, the local chief executive must go to the Hague Fort, where the Parliament is located, and explain to the parliamentarians in person… The local government agencies must also be investigated and inspected by the investigation team. Is there any malfeasance…”

Princess Anastasia clenched her hands tightly and couldn’t lift her head in shame.

If there is a seam in the ground, she will definitely crawl in.

Grum raised his hand, and the noisy sound in the hall immediately disappeared without a trace.

“Everyone, please keep quiet, Mr. Michelin hasn’t finished speaking yet!”

Michelin nodded to Grumm and continued:

“Fortunately, we intervened in time to prevent the situation from further deteriorating… A large number of people from the Department of Civil Affairs have joined the Haichao Chamber of Commerce and major cooperative chambers of commerce to begin emergency relief… In addition, just now, Haixing Island sent an update, the first batch of beans The rice and rice merchant fleet has already set off. About this evening, 24,000 tons of soy rice and rice will arrive at the port.”

“According to our preliminary plan, in the next six months, we will successively mobilize 2.8 million tons of grain to support the Silver Lion Republic… On the other hand, we will also vigorously develop the marine fishing industry and fully cultivate at least 5 million hectares. Farmland, grow beans, rice and rice to ensure that no one will die from hunger…”

These words caused a burst of warm applause in the hall.

Even people who lack political sensitivity such as Princess Anastasia are clearly aware at this moment that this operation of the other party will completely sever the foundation of the royal family.

The reason is simple. People can guarantee that everyone is full, but the royal family can only let hundreds of thousands of people starve to death. Isn’t it obvious that the civilians will choose whom to follow?

As for the support of the nobles?

Sorry, are there any eggs?

After this “yingbird revolution” is over, how many nobles still exist in the whole kingdom is still unknown!

Faced with this kind of “extreme household plan”, the strategy of “tolerating for a hundred or hundreds of years and trying to make a comeback” is simply a joke.

Princess Anastasia suddenly raised her head, with a pair of beautiful blue eyes, staring at Gollum closely, and asked in a trembling voice:

“Honorable Major General, can you tell me what the **** of war plans to do with our Leon Turner family?”

Gurum smiled slightly:

“The requirements under the crown of God of War are very simple. The Leon Turner family must abandon the throne and declare their support for the system of the Republic… In addition, they will accept a fair trial and make a certain amount of compensation for this famine and make up for the loss of civilians. ……or……”

After a pause, he said lightly:

“We took action to erase the entire Leon Turner family!”

This sentence frightened Princess Anastasia’s face.

Gurum made a “please” gesture towards the princess:

“His Royal Highness, please bring our request to your father…”
