Rise of the Empire Total War

Quack - quack - quack -

The city is no longer as prosperous as it used to be. There are groups of black crows hovering in the sky, and those carrion vultures flapping their wings and screaming shrilly.

There were corpses all over the streets, and a large number of innocent civilian corpses fell on the ground. The blood flowing from the wounds of the corpses gathered together and eventually flowed into the sewage drains on both sides of the street, forming a trickling river of blood. Look, those fragmented limbs, those broken limbs and broken arms, and the viscous internal organs that exude a stench are all distributed among the corpses, like a scene from hell.

This is a massacre, a bloody, brutal massacre—no, to be precise, this is an inhuman massacre.

Pooh. A slight sound sounded, and a piece of minced meat was picked up and swallowed into the crow's belly. Its dark eyes narrowed in satisfaction, as if it had eaten the delicacy in the world. However, before it savored it carefully, it sensitively sensed the movement around it. It immediately opened its mouth and croaked, and flew up with flapping wings. After stopping in mid-air, it looked down dissatisfiedly, but I saw several blood-stained humans running in panic on this street.

The crow didn't know why they were running like this, and it didn't want to know, it just wanted to go down and continue eating after these annoying humans ran away, but before those humans ran away, they were chasing after them A group of soldiers in strange costumes holding long pipes, ran while sternly yelling at the people in front to stop escaping, but it didn't work. Seeing this, the leader officer raised his hand to signal his subordinates to stop chasing. Stand still, raise the long tube in your hand, aim at the civilians who are getting farther and farther away, and pull the trigger, only to hear a series of bang bang bang sounds, the crow screamed in shock and flew into the distance, while in front of the soldiers On the street, the civilians who were running were shot and fell in a pool of blood.

The crow desperately fluttered its wings and flew into the distance. The loud noise just now really frightened the timid one. Under the sky where it flew, killings could be seen everywhere in the whole city. From the black eyes of the crow, It can be seen that a group of civilians in a panic were chased and fled into an alley. After running to the end, they found that there was no way to escape in despair. They could only turn around slowly and look at the Winster soldiers who were getting closer. They wanted to ask for mercy, but they couldn't say it, because they remembered all the tragedies they had suffered all the way here, and they knew very well in their hearts that begging for mercy might be useless.

"Raise the gun!"

Looking at the desperate civilians, the commander of the leading musket company was expressionless. As his order sounded, the soldiers around him raised their muskets and pointed them at the huddled Tarossus Common people, in their eyes, these pagans who believe in false gods are as humble as livestock.

"shooting!"

bang bang bang—

...

"Run, run! Run through the intersection ahead, we'll be safe!"

In one part of the city, a group of broken soldiers with weapons and armor jumped over corpses and ran forward desperately. Behind them was a group of auxiliary troops from the city-state of Catonita, perhaps thinking of the friendship of the former alliance. , they deliberately slowed down the pace of pursuit, but even so, the Tarosus soldiers who were pursued by them still could not escape. The soldiers with long pipes lined up in front of the intersection with indifferent expressions, and raised the long pipes in their hands horizontally, aiming at the running soldiers.

Although the rout soldiers didn't know what this long tube was, they knew very well how terrifying this weapon was. Many of their comrades died under this weapon—and now, it would be their turn soon.

"Damn! Brothers, rush over, as long as they break through their defenses, we can escape!"

As soon as the words of encouragement fell, the veteran who shouted saw flames erupting in front of the long pipes, followed by the continuous sound of popping beans, and then he felt a pain in his chest, and his whole body was exhausted. With the blood blooming on the chest flowing out of the body,

He knelt on the ground weakly, wanting to look back at his comrades-in-arms, but he could never do it.

...

The massacre continued until ten days later, before it subsided gradually. During the ten days full of blood, no one knew how many people were ruthlessly killed, and no one knew how much wealth was plundered. During these ten days, most of the buildings in the city were razed to the ground and turned into ruins. The residences and temples of the parliamentarians near the city center were also looted. Pushed down, turned into powder.

"All the inhabitants of this place were slaughtered, and the former prosperous city-state turned into a white ground... Crows and vultures hovered, wolves and wild beasts ran rampant, and Tarossos has become the capital of the dead." - Pedro Lugo, Lexovi A city-state historian, records of the city of Tarossos."

"Although they are called the teachers of civilization, they did what barbarians did, brutally massacred thousands of civilians, and razed the centuries-old city of Tarossos to the ground... - Basile Boli, A historian of the Katonita city-state, records of the atrocities committed by the Winster Expeditionary Force in Tarossos City."

"The army returned victorious, and used blood and fire to purify the filth in the city of Tarossos, and sprinkled the glory of God on this land... The residents in the city refused to convert to the embrace of God, so Earl Charles had to order the massacre of the city... - Samuel Le Betoni, clerk of the Nord Seminary, account of the capture of the city of Tarossus by the expeditionary force."

...

They were surprised, they were angry, they were afraid, and they began to worry that what happened to their allies would happen to them again, so they packed their bags at home and tried to escape the city before the Winster army arrived here, but how could the city-state council not Knowing their thoughts, after only a few people managed to escape, all the gates of the city were blocked, and all the soldiers who could be mobilized in the city were conscripted into the army. Although they have not yet decided whether to resist to the end, the whole city has entered the most tense moment.

Members of the parliament are still discussing whether to continue fighting or surrender to the brutal Winster army, but they don't know that the city-state of Sipps, which has become a vassal (after the kingdom was destroyed, the coalition forces changed its government to a republic, Therefore, it became the city-state of Sipes) and sent envoys to surrender to the Winsters one step ahead. May be alone.

So, after sending envoys to surrender, Speaker Sipps committed suicide by taking poison at home.
