Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science
Chapter 1760: Fifteen. Aphrodite (5)
Marseille and the two companions are experiencing and trying to adapt to a brand new thing-taking the train.
This sounds strange. The empire has always been ardently attached to infrastructure projects, especially the construction of railways. Its world’s largest, most complicated, and most accurate railway network system has always been the object of all countries. Taking a high-speed train to a coastal city for vacation is one of the highlights of the organization "Get Power Through Happiness" every year. Marseille has participated in such activities twice. Anrietta and Louise also often traveled by train to all parts of the empire, and sometimes they played vigorous episodes on the train with the Empire Social Order Security Bureau, railway police and the like.
Taking the train is nothing new for them.
But taking the Principality train... What should I say, it is an ultimate test of imagination and patience for people in any country other than the Principality, saying that taking a train is to play a survival game, that is not at all exaggerated.
From the moment you walk into the train station, the survival game begins.
First of all, to ensure that you are not stolen or robbed, but also to see that your teammates don’t go away, luck is better, stolen and robbed is considered luck, trampled and bruised can also be, kidnapped by a rogue You don’t need to expect to come back alive, and it’s the worst to be trampled by the restless crowd.
The above are all the most authentic portrayal of the railway station in the Principality. In order to protest the increase in the price of train tickets by 5 cape, people around the country launched a ticket evasion protest. Crowded crowds hit checkpoints, not buying tickets and getting on the bus has become a common phenomenon. In the face of the violent tide of people, ticket inspectors, security guards, wooden fences, etc. do not play any role at all. Many train stations must rely on the army and the gendarmerie. To maintain the basic order, those places where the military and police constitution cannot support it can only be left to their disposal.
After passing the first test, don't be too happy to squeeze onto the platform successfully. This is just the beginning. Then a series of hells will begin.
The most common is that the train is late. Don’t think about the accuracy of the trains like the empire in seconds. Today’s Principality trains can not be delayed more than three hours. That is already a train of conscience. It is a common phenomenon to be delayed more than four or five hours. of. Wait until you finally get to the train, and then you will squeeze the train with a bunch of people, and wait until the car is stuffed like canned sardines, the windows and the roof are full of people, this column is like a zoo monkey mountain The train began to creep slowly. Along the way, various odors were pervasive (in addition to body odor, stool odor, and cooking fumes, some people used a coal stove to cook on the roof of the car, often causing fires and other accidents). If you persevered all the way, did not die from suffocation, dehydration, criminal crime, accidents, survived the long journey that became as eternal as the railroad tracks were chopped, the front of the car broke down, the worker's strike, the bandit robbery, etc., to the terminal After that, I will have to experience the chaos of getting off...
Their situation is relatively better in Marseille. They entered the Principality as diplomats of the Republic from the beginning, so they can enjoy special boxes and avoid most of the trouble. It's just that the national situation of the train being delayed is still impossible, and O'Krana's surveillance is also a problem that can't be circumvented.
The Principality was wary of the Republic from the beginning, and in the eyes of the principalities of the Principality, the Republic was a potential threat after the Empire.
If the threat of the Empire is at the level of strength and geopolitics, then the threat of the Republic is at the institutional and ideological level.
-No king or emperor can govern the country.
-All human beings are created equal and the era of privilege is over.
——The country can be governed well by relying on the public itself, and it is natural to question and oppose government policies.
Such irrational and deviant ideas are not poisonous to the principality, and the fact that such ideas are the foundation of the founding of the country, and the successful operation of the gradually growing country does exist, is a subversion of the traditional political system, structure and ideas. Therefore, as long as the Republic exists for one day, the Principality will be wary of this "pollution source", fearing the spread of the Republic's ideas in the Principality.
Given the reality of the Principality—social conflicts, radical activists, and the fact that a large number of exiles go to the Republic every year, such worries are not unnecessary. If we take into account the fact that there are many radicals within the republic, such as "export revolutionary ideas" and "let the proposition of freedom, equality and fraternity become the benchmark value of the whole world", then the Principality's vigilance against the republic is not superfluous. It is absolutely necessary.
The Republic’s subtle attitude towards the Principality is also well-understood, considering that in the orc country, humans have inherently both the appearance and language barriers to engage in intelligence work. That is why the Republic gave Marseilles and others diplomatic identities from the beginning and notified the Principality to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Thanks to this, apart from various delays and having to stop when encountering troubles, there has been nothing that can be called "trouble" along the way.
But it is also impossible to call this journey "enjoyment".
The most direct and lingering thing is the psychological problem.
Marseille, Anrietta, and Louise all came from the empire. People who live in the empire have “relocation”, “labor frees people”, and “ride on the train to the north” are metaphors with special meanings. Translated into the words that everyone understands, it is "sent to something and sent to the empire's enclave in the Principality"
No one knows how many concentration camps there are, how many people were sent in, and what happened to those people. Everything was shrouded in the fog of fear that "not even mention it", and no one dared to touch this taboo topic, fearing that he would also be one of them, catching the train to the north, and then disappeared completely.
With such a layer of psychological barriers, they inevitably feel uncomfortable with this.
Among the three, Louise was the most serious.
She had never been on that kind of train, but she had witnessed a train heading north, and how those people were caught on the train.
A large group of soldiers and security policemen wearing uniforms of the Special Operations Team of the Imperial Social Order Security Bureau surrounded the platform. A truck drove into the train station, and men and women were driven off the truck. In the screams of soldiers and the barking of wolf dogs, people cried out and were caught up in the carriages for pulling animals. Each carriage was jammed and locked. From the window closed by barbed wire, a pair of hands protruded and waved. Some people who tried to escape or defended against the soldiers were killed on the spot, and the body was thrown directly into the car...
No matter how powerful the psychological construction is, how strong the spirit is honed by the brutal war, after witnessing the cruel picture once, it will leave a shadow for life. It is already very valuable for Louis to keep the apparent calm as usual. At this time, the poison tongue is more sharp and sharper than usual. It is also justifiable. After all, everyone needs a mental vent.
"'Cockroach tactics'?"
Waving the report in his hand, Louis said:
"Those who come up with tactics and names are excellent."
"But you must admit that this is an effective tactic."
After taking the talk, Anrietta pulled the direction of the discussion back to the original track.
"For us, this is also a highly useful tactic."
The biggest headache for various violent institutions in the Principality today is the "cockroaches" centered around the capital and spreading across major cities across the country.
The so-called "cockroach" does not refer to a certain kind of household pest, but refers to the street protesters and the new forms of tactics they use. They are both individuals and groups. There is no difference between ordinary people walking on the street and ordinary people. You can't tell which one is "cockroach" and which is "good people". Until they suddenly throw petrol bombs at a public facility-usually a government agency, and sometimes the police station and branches of Okrana are also targets. Or take a turban and mask from your arms to cover your face, shouting various anti-government and anarchist slogans, instigating crowds to protest or attack government agencies, shopping streets, and police barracks. At this time, if there is a cavalry or army nearby, the colleagues in the surrounding high-rise buildings will quickly report the size, speed, and spacing of the troops. If the number of military police is small or the spacing of the troops is large, then "cockroaches" We will instigate people to attack the single military police; if there are a large number of military police~www.wuxiaspot.com~cockroaches", they will throw earthen incendiary bombs at the crushing military police and try to escape in the chaos of the military police stepping forward. Enter the sewers, alleys, and pre-agreed buildings, change their face and transfer through the city sewers, or wait for the situation to subside. Those who are squatting in the building use the camera equipment from unknown sources to shoot the "infectious complaint picture" ", as a propaganda theme, so that more people tend to be fooled, even directly involved in street violence.
The above is just a relatively junior version, playing more advanced and even digitizing the violent activities, and creating violent activities in multiple blocks at the same time, using the high-precision high-frequency violent activities of the train schedule to prevent the military and police from concentrating. Sometimes it takes only one day to exhaust the military police and cause heavy losses.
To be honest, this is no longer a march and protest, this is basically a kind of "quasi-war".
"Earth-made incendiary bombs, slingshots, spears, iron bars, bricks on the streets, trebuchet... trebuchet?! Really fake? Where did that stuff come from? Museum?"
Looking at the accompanying photos in the report, Anrietta marveled in a nearly exaggerated voice. Marseille on the side looked at it and shook his head and sighed.
"The commentary is a "defensive tool" made by college students with reference to illustrations in history textbooks... I don't know how much this kind of thing can play. The only thing that can be determined is that the purpose of the promoters behind the scenes has been achieved."
"Yes."
There must be an empire in control of this highly organized behavior.
To a certain extent, they are more sensitive to "revolution" than what the empire of the Principality is thinking. What is the purpose behind this series of actions? It is precisely the purpose of their trip to find out the truth hidden behind the fog.
