18th century total war

Chapter 23 Intimidation

On the long road, a flag painted with a black dragon fluttered in the wind.

Dragons are a symbol of evil in Western society, not a good thing. Once the flag of the black dragon is displayed, even ignorant farmers will think that these people are a bunch of bad guys!
However, the black dragon painted on this black dragon flag is not a large lizard in the west, but a dragon that symbolizes imperial power in the east.

As a result, when the first-line infantry regiment unfurled this banner, no one recognized that it was the Eastern Dragon except for the fact that they had never seen it before and that it was more powerful...

Naturally, no one would associate it with the evil black dragon.

Li Wei raised this banner to satisfy his own vanity. After all, he was a native of the East in his previous life, and he still had a bit of imperial thinking, so he had always yearned for Shenlong.

It feels too exaggerated to create a golden dragon flag, so simply use the black dragon as the symbol of the military flag.

And after awarding this flag, name the first line infantry regiment the Black Dragon Army!
This name sounds good in Eastern society, but in European society, the meaning of the Black Dragon Army is almost the same as that of the Skeleton Army...

One look is an army that spreads death and disaster!
Of course, the army is a murderous weapon, so choosing this name can have some effect on intimidating the enemy.

The premise is that the Black Dragon Army can really defeat the enemy, instead of being beaten down as soon as they enter the field, that will only increase the laughing stock.

Today, the legal status of Li Wei's army has been banned by the local government, that is to say, from a legal perspective, Li Wei is the leader of a rebel army.

This is why Li Wei officially named the army under his command.

Ever since he detained the special commissioner in Vannes, he knew that he could not continue to sit still. Even his father was detained in Paris. Who would care about his baron status?

After the nobles lost their privileges, they only had the role of an honorary title. Li Wei would not be rare for such flashy things.

Disorderly gunshots rang out from the small town ahead, and within an hour, Carl, who was in charge of opening the way, sent a messenger to report to Li Wei that the town had been fully controlled.

Soon, Li Wei entered the town and saw a group of captives in the military uniform of the security station being escorted up. In the front row were the mayor in gorgeous costumes with embarrassing faces and wealthy businessmen in the town.

"I am very pleased that you can recognize the general situation and take refuge in my Black Dragon Army."

As soon as Li Wei opened his mouth, the faces of those who were captured suddenly changed.

When did they take refuge?

Why don't you know?
This young rebel leader looks kind-hearted, but his words are heartbreaking!
How do they answer this?
Pretending to be righteous and awe-inspiring to refute?

Then what should the other party do if someone kills him...

However, if he admits it, wouldn't he become a part of the Black Dragon Army?

Who wants to be a part of the rebel army in a decent official position!
Li Wei said this in front of so many people, so that these people dare not even lie. After all, the public's eyes are sharp. When they open their mouths at this moment, how can they explain it when the Black Dragon Army pats their ass and leaves?
Looking at the silent crowd, Li Wei suddenly took out the flintlock pistol he was wearing and pulled the trigger at one of the wealthy businessmen in the small town.

With a bang, the gunshot almost scared the other prisoners with status, their legs limp and kneeled on the ground!

Li Wei looked angry, and reprimanded Carl, who was in charge of capturing the prisoners, "I asked you to bring only our own people to meet, so why did you bring the diehards here too.

This kind of people who are not willing to surrender to our Black Dragon Army can be dealt with directly. We only leave our own people to manage the town! "

Carl looked serious, bowed his head for training, and kept silent...

The first few small town councilors are all good people, otherwise they would not be able to sit in this high position. How could they not know that this is the commander of the Black Dragon Army warning them!

Everyone pretends to be stupid, don't even think about living!
The wealthy businessman who was killed was very innocent. He didn't resist the attack of the Black Dragon Army at all. It was just because he was considered a respectable member of parliament in the small town, so he was captured by Karl...

Li Wei didn't just find someone to make an example of. Before meeting these people, he had inquired about their identities from Karl. Otherwise, these captives would not have been lined up in front of Li Wei in an orderly manner according to the social status of the town.

Li Wei's killing of the rich businessman will not have any impact on his control of the town.

Of course, if everyone in the small town insisted on fighting against Li Wei, Li Wei could only kill everyone.

It is impossible for Li Wei to divide his troops and stay in the town, otherwise how many people would be left in the hands of Vannes?
Insufficient troops, they can only use this small method.

Forcing the person in the town to kneel and lick himself in front of everyone, and become a member of the Black Dragon Army. After he leaves, it is not easy to wash off the stains on his body.

Even if they go 'anyway' in the past, with the political taint of surrender, their future political prospects will be blocked, and there is even a risk of being settled after the fall.

No one likes traitors, especially when the Declaration of Human Rights is in full swing in all parts of the Kingdom of France, those ordinary people did not think that the Paris Revolution was a rebellious movement, they already believed that it was a just revolution!

This is what the people want, and this is the general trend!
However, because of his own status, Li Wei could only choose to go against the current. Fortunately, he has the total war system as his hole card, otherwise Li Wei's behavior is courting death!

Of course, if Li Wei didn't have a total war system, he wouldn't be able to raise his troops to raise the flag to rebel. As early as the Paris Revolution, he went abroad with his floating money...

Livy knew only too well how unfriendly the Paris Revolution was to the aristocracy!
However, with the Total War system in place, Li Wei is naturally unwilling to go abroad and live a life of wandering overseas. His baron status is a fart if he goes abroad!

Not to mention, the task issued by the total war system to capture the city of Rennes is within the territory of France. God knows whether the total war system will be abolished after going abroad. After all, the authority of the total war system that Li Wei has now opened is too low.

And without building points, Li Wei can no longer activate the next training camp with special effects.

Not all training camps can burn glory to cultivate loyal soldiers for Li Wei. Only buildings that have been converted by building points can have similar functions.

Building points are even more rare than glory points.

"We would like to respect the Black Dragon Army as the Lord."

After the death, the effect immediately became prominent. Since these people chose to be captives, they are naturally greedy for life and afraid of death!

They weren't captured after being wounded or knocked out!
