The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

Don't expect a group of cowardly nobles to command an army with strong professionalism. The troops advanced in a scattered manner without any alertness. Little did they know that from the moment they entered the base, they had fallen into the full surveillance of the militia.

The noble officers in charge of command marched in sedan chairs. The entire corps of noble officers was protected in the center of the army, and they had special servants to serve them.

"Alas, the environment in the countryside is too bad. It's better to be at home!"

"There's nothing I can do. It's the rioters' fault for not paying. Don't let me catch those bastards, or I'll make them pay."

"You know what? We have been walking in the countryside for so long and we haven't seen a single peasant."

“This is normal. When those lowly people saw us coming, they must have hidden themselves in advance. But it doesn’t matter.

I heard there's a big village ahead. If we rush over now, the people there shouldn't be able to escape. As for the mob, they're just a few peasants. If we kill a few of them, they'll be quiet."

The officers who were being carried were bored on the road and started chatting with each other. In their eyes, this was just an armed parade and they looked down on the action.

Ma En also arrived at the frontier command post at this time. Under Ma En's leadership, the entire base began to pave the way for the first battle of the Red Flag Army. Dao Mei was also in the command post, explaining the entire battle plan to Ma En.

The plan was not complicated. It was nothing more than luring the enemy deep into our territory and at the same time, taking advantage of our army's familiarity with the geography, encircling and annihilating the invading enemy forces.

The general idea of ​​the plan did not seem complicated to Marne, but the details required some thought, including the various personnel transfers, material dispatch, time arrangements, and the deployment of positions and personnel.

These details also opened Ma En's eyes. It should be said that Daomei is worthy of being someone who has been in the navy, and was almost selected for the headquarters. She is very organized in command.

"Mr. Ma En, don't underestimate my command this time. In fact, command ability needs to be improved.

In fact, my current practical command ability was developed during the uprising of the Kingdom of Norse." Daomei explained to Ma En.

"A good commander does need actual combat training, and practice is the only criterion for testing truth. I think you can also be an instructor and teach little Gus and others how to command troops in battle." Ma En said with emotion.

The invading enemy army seemed to have no military experience and successfully walked into the encirclement set by our side. As the signal sounded, the Red Flag Army officially raised the flag, and flags were raised in all directions.

Daomei, who was commanding at the front line, saw that the enemy had completely entered the encirclement, so she gave the order to sound the signal, and the revolutionary army from all directions also launched a siege on the enemy.

At this time, the revolutionary army, which lacked heavy weapons, also tried to use primitive methods, using catapults to throw explosive packs into the enemy's formation.

Then, a huge explosion sounded in the enemy's formation, and with the cover of catapults, the revolutionary army also launched a charge.

After the sudden attack, the formation of the Deya Kingdom army was completely chaotic, and even an effective counterattack was impossible. When some officers were still trying to save the army and reorganize the front, the Red Flag Army had already charged in front of them.

The Crow, who was responsible for blocking the enemy in the front, led his men to attack the enemy. The soldiers who followed the Crow to charge were also the most elite soldiers, some of whom had served in the navy with Sword Girl.

In the ranks of the Deya Kingdom army, walking in the front were the serfs who were temporarily transferred to fill the numbers. When the troops led by Crow rushed to them, these soldiers collapsed without any will to fight.

They also took advantage of the situation to break through the ranks in the rear, which confused Crow and others who had just rushed to the front, but they still continued to follow orders and attacked deep into the Deya Kingdom army's position.

Seeing that the serf soldiers in front were directly defeated, some noble officers had not yet reacted. They still thought it was an ordinary surprise attack directed by the peasants.

Several nobles jumped off the sedan chair in anger, thinking that they could rely on their unparalleled aristocratic demeanor to defeat the peasants on the opposite side without a fight.

They yelled and cursed wildly at the fleeing soldiers in front of them, trying hard to turn the hopeless situation around. However, their efforts were not completely useless, but they had little effect.

However, although the nobles shouted and cursed loudly, they still surrendered voluntarily when the revolutionary army arrived. According to the rules of the underworld, if they surrendered their guns, they would not be beaten. Their families could only pay some money to redeem them.

After all, the lives of the nobles were precious. It didn't matter if the conscripted soldiers died, but the nobles couldn't be killed or injured. In this way, the war went smoothly beyond the expectations of the revolutionary army, and it was undoubtedly a victory for the base.

At this time, the commander was still a little confused. Let's just say they were from the same island, but the difference between the armies of the Kingdom of Norse and the Kingdom of Deya was too big.

You have to know that the rebel army of Daomei was beaten to death by the army of the Kingdom of Norse. Their combat power is much stronger than that of the army of the Kingdom of Deya.

However, the result of the victory was very good. For the Red Flag Army, this was more or less actual combat experience, and it also greatly enhanced the confidence of many of their new recruits.

On the battlefield, the revolutionary army had basically secured victory, while the army of the Deya Kingdom was defeated. No distinction was made between nobles and serfs, as they all fled in panic the way they came.

At this time, Daomei had arranged for Xiaogus to tighten the encirclement in the rear, but even if a few lucky ones escaped the encirclement, they could not escape, as they had already penetrated too deep into the base. They could escape the encirclement of the Red Flag Army, but they could not escape the capture of the militia.

In this way, the Red Flag Army won the first battle. The next step was to capture prisoners. It is worth mentioning that several untouched cannons were also seized.

Next, for the Red Flag Army, after winning the first round of the war, they can also calmly deal with the next move of the Deya Kingdom.

Moreover, the captured prisoners could not be wasted. They had to complain and hold public trials, and many serf soldiers would join the revolutionary army on the spot.

The revolutionary army also accepted all comers and tried to formalize this policy process to disintegrate the oppressed class in the enemy army. As a result, when the time came to fight back sooner or later, these soldiers might be able to play a very important role.

At this time, in the city, the nobles, after sending out the suppression troops, returned to their former state of living a life of drunkenness and debauchery. In the eyes of the nobles, what was a mere peasant rebellion? They could just send out the troops and defeat them in one battle.

Of course, more importantly, the news from the Zaun front has finally arrived. The Kingdom of Norse has withdrawn its troops! The crisis in our Great Deya has been resolved.

If we wait until the autumn tax is collected, everyone can make some money again. The current situation of the Kingdom of Deya can be said to be full of vitality and everything is flourishing.

Unfortunately, objective laws cannot be changed by human will, and the bad news came late. Of the entire suppression force, only a few merchants who were familiar with the road conditions escaped.

This was like a bolt from the blue for the nobles in the city. After all, the nobles were all related, and many people's relatives were also implicated in this failure.

Many nobles were very confused. This is not right! How could I lose when I have such an advantage?

But the only urgent matter was to find a way to remedy the situation. Just as the battle on the front line was over, a military order was issued to mobilize Galen in the front and bring back the main force in the front to suppress the rebellion.
