The Revolutionary Era in One Piece

When Galen received an urgent order from home, he had no choice but to march back home without waiting for the army to fully rest.

Before the reinforcements from the Deya Kingdom returned, the revolutionary army in the base was not idle either. The power of the base began to expand towards the core power zone of the Deya Kingdom nobles.

In the previous battle, many prisoners of war captured by the Deya Kingdom also played a huge role. Under the process of complaining and re-education in the base, a large number of grassroots soldiers defected to the base.

In particular, the serf soldiers who were temporarily brought in to make up the numbers were the fastest and most resolute group to turn to the revolutionary army after complaining.

The serfs who had escaped from oppression for the first time were eager for the revolutionary army to expand the revolution to their loved ones. Under the leadership of the serfs, the revolutionary army successfully launched a liberation movement against the nobles' private estates, specifically targeting the nobles' serfs.

Faced with the temptation of freedom, slaves who were often forced to become serfs for various reasons quickly embraced the revolutionaries.

After the first slave dared to ask the revolutionary army for help, the entire liberation movement began to flourish, and the manor economy run by the nobles relying on serfs also suffered a crushing blow.

When the nobles learned that the foundation of their own industries depended on a large number of serfs being freed by the revolutionary army, almost all of them gave in.

Under the coercion of the nobles, the city's defense forces were forced to go out of the city to attack the revolutionary army. The result was obvious, any army that went out of the city suffered a severe blow.

Therefore, no matter how much the nobles oppressed them, the city defense forces were unwilling to move and just wanted to wait for the main force from the front to return for support.

Even when the revolutionary forces expanded on a large scale and threatened some cities, the city defense forces in the city took the initiative to withdraw and abandon a series of peripheral cities.

Seeing that the Kingdom of Deya had voluntarily given up the city, the base was not polite either. The enemy advanced and we retreated. We ate as much as the enemy lost. In the weakly defended villages of the Kingdom of Deya, the revolutionary army was even more defeated.

The nobles of the Kingdom of Deya could only defend the big cities, and these big cities eventually became isolated islands separated by the countryside. This was the scene that Li saw when he escorted a large amount of supplies back to the base.

Through Li's report after his return, the front committee also learned the details of the battle between the two countries. At the same time, based on Li's narration, Ma En also confirmed that under the current situation, the main force of the Deya Kingdom's army will soon arrive to support.

The Red Flag Army, which had just experienced a great victory, was somewhat indifferent to the concerns of Ma, Engels and Li. However, as leaders, Ma, Engels needed to be responsible for the entire base. Faced with the more brutal war to come, Ma, Engels urgently convened a meeting of the Front Committee.

"Everyone has heard what Li reported, so I will not elaborate on it. I know that everyone is optimistic about the current war situation, but I believe that what comes next will be the biggest test for the revolutionary party and the base area." As he spoke, Ma En slammed his hand heavily on the table.

Under the serious warning of Ma and Engels, the members of the Front Committee finally restrained their optimistic attitude. Seeing this, Ma and Engels continued, "I said that everyone should not be too optimistic about the revolutionary situation at this time. We must act cautiously and pay attention to the next enemy."

At this time, Gus raised his hand, and at Maan's signal, Gus stood up and said, "Mr. Maan, I know that our army's next enemy is the elite enemy who just returned from the front line.

But didn't Commissioner Li say that they had just fought a great battle and suffered huge losses? I think with the Red Flag Army's current combat effectiveness, there is no need to fear the other side. "

Hearing what Little Gus said, Crow and Sword Girl, who were in charge of the army, nodded. Even Li, who had just returned, agreed that the Red Flag Army was not inferior to the main army of the Kingdom of Deya.

Seeing that everyone was quite confident, Ma En was very pleased, but the cadres present were still too young and lacked more experience.

Ma En interrupted everyone's reverie and said, "Although the main army of the Deya Kingdom is strong, it is still very easy for our revolutionary army to deal with it.

However, we have to consider more than just the Kingdom of Deya. Don’t forget that our base spans both sides of the Ai Ya Mountains, and the other end is within the Kingdom of Norse.”

Hearing this, Daomei was surprised at first, after all, she had rebelled in the Kingdom of Norse before.

Daomei asked, "Mr. Maen, the Kingdom of Norse shouldn't launch another large-scale attack in the short term! After all, they just finished a war and haven't gained an advantage on the battlefield.

Even the guards you defeated to collect taxes from them have not yet retaliated.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Deya and the Kingdom of North are still in a hostile relationship. Will they join forces to attack the base? I think if they can join forces, it will be a long time until all pirates become Celestial Dragons. "

Hearing what Daomei said, Ma En thought that pirates in the future could really become Celestial Dragons, and then shook his head and replied, "We can't trust the integrity of the nobles too much. Now that the revolution has developed to this extent, it has spread like wildfire in the Kingdom of Deya.

Let me ask you, do the nobles hate the enemy country they have been fighting for decades more, or do they hate us more?"

Irelia had already sat down at this time, and the rest of the people were also lost in thought.

Ma En continued, "Yes, I believe that the nobles hate us revolutionaries more than the enemy country with whom they have had a feud for decades. After all, if the Kingdom of North wins, it will only make a fortune from them. We revolutionaries want not only money from them, but also their lives. What we do is to undermine the foundation of the nobles.

For those nobles, even if they put aside their hatred and kowtow to the enemy country, it is better than compromising with us revolutionaries. According to my thinking, the encirclement and suppression that the base area will face next will not be the previous minor fights. Not only the reactionary armies of the Kingdom of Deya and the Kingdom of North will be dispatched to suppress the revolutionary movement.

We must prepare for the worst and be ready to never give up even if we are besieged by more enemies. Next, the mobilization of the base area cannot be stopped and the troops must be on high alert.

This is also a great test for the construction of our base area. No matter how hard it is, the worst case scenario is that the Babao Navy will also join in. But I believe that no matter how powerful the enemy is in this attack, as long as the people of the base area support our revolutionary army, we and the people of the base area will definitely win in the end. "

After Marx and Engels finished their analysis, the front committee members, who understood the severity of the war, stopped procrastinating and began to discuss specific response plans. While the base was preparing for mobilization, the nobles of the Kingdom of Deya also began their own plans.

"That bunch of damned mobs! When Garen returns with his troops, immediately order him to arrest those mobs. I'm going to give them a good beating." A pot-bellied noble shouted loudly.

The other nobles in the meeting room followed suit.

"Who said it wasn't true? All my slaves were let go by those damn guys. And my family's property was accumulated by us without stealing or robbing. But now it's all gone!"

"And my old manor is gone too. My poor uncle is still trapped in the hands of those peasants."

Seeing that the nobles' meeting was about to turn into a grievance meeting, an old noble who looked very capable had to stand up and guide the topic of the meeting.

"Ahem. Everyone, stop for a moment. We can make up for our losses from those peasants after the war. What we should discuss now is how to deal with this riot next?"

The pot-bellied nobleman looked extremely angry and replied, "What else can we do? Of course we should send troops to suppress them and make them pay."

It was the old noble who asked his own question, "We just suffered a defeat, and now we are going to fight again, isn't that too hasty?

Moreover, according to those who escaped, the number of rioters is all over the mountains and plains, and there are tens of thousands of them. I think we should take a long-term view and stabilize the current front before discussing other things. "

"What do you mean? Are we not going to wipe them out just because they are difficult to deal with?" The noble patted his big belly and replied, "You are different from us. You put down your noble status and do the menial job of merchants. We are different. Those mobs took away our ancestral property. No matter what, the mob must be wiped out immediately."

Then, he stroked his belly and said, "If the kingdom's army is unable to support the suppression of the rebellion, we can also call on mercenaries or even pirates to help. If that doesn't work, at worst we can cede the land to those country bumpkins in the Kingdom of North and ask them to send troops to suppress the rebellion together."

Hearing this, many nobles like him agreed.

The old nobleman suddenly felt that something was wrong. You know, his family relied on trade to rise, and the previous war between the Kingdom of Deya and the Kingdom of North was also for the competition for the land around Port Roland, which could also be said to be an indirect competition for the interests of trade.

If the Kingdom of Norse wants to cede the land, wouldn't it be necessary to cede the land that was defended with great difficulty some time ago? This would also be a huge blow to his family's business.

So he immediately objected, "We just finished a war with the Kingdom of Norse. If we cede land now, wouldn't that mean we're giving in to those country bumpkins?"

However, other nobles do not see it this way. Most of the nobles still rely on land as their foundation.

Seeing that everyone supported his point of view, the noble with a big belly said with a sly smile, "Which side has suffered more losses? Don't you know clearly?

I would rather give to friendly nations than to domestic slaves. If I have to give benefits, I would rather give them to country bumpkins than to peasants. ” Many nobles also expressed their agreement.

Seeing that everyone agreed, he remembered something and continued, "Also, in order to wipe out those mud-legged people faster, we need to find everyone we can.

I also plan to send someone to contact the Babao Navy. At worst, I can cede some land. I believe this will be more foolproof. When the time comes, I must deal with these rioters properly."

After making the decision, the nobles, who used to be very slow, appeared very capable this time. At the same time, unlike their previous image of being very stingy, this time, the nobles also took the initiative to pay for the military expenses.

Before Galen led the army back, the nobles also sent people to lobby other forces on Roland Island, and a large network targeting the base was gradually formed.

By the time the nobles had organized the counter-revolutionary forces, the revolutionaries had completed mobilization within the base area.

The clouds of war began to emerge on Roland Island again. Whether the darkness would return or the thunder would break through the darkness, the next battle would determine the future fate of the entire Roland Island.
