Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The French town of Giverny, although it has been in the hands of the Spanish for almost half a year, the riots against the Spanish in Giverny are still very frequent, so much so that the Spanish tax officials dare not enter the town.  Town, because you don¡¯t know when you will be killed.

    "The Spaniards have captured Paris, and the king has gone into exile in Hong Kong!"

    In the morning in the small town, someone was riding a horse and shouting loudly, with infinite sorrow and indignation in his voice.

    They have always been proud of being great French people, and their allegiance is always to the King of France. Even if the Spanish come over, it is still not easy to rule here.

    As long as the king of France gives the order, everyone will immediately rise up to resist and drive the Spaniards out.

    But France failed to live up to expectations and was retreating in the face of Spanish attacks. Now even Paris has fallen, and the king has gone into exile in Hong Kong, leaving behind his people.

    "France is dead!"

    "Destroyed?"

    Hearing the news, every Frenchman in the small town of Giverny felt as if they had lost their souls and were devastated.

    If there is one place in Europe where the people are the most unified, it must be France.

    France has basically determined its current territory from a very early time, and also established the French nation. The rule of the French king has always been very stable and has always been effectively passed on.

    Unlike other places that rely on marriage and other means to expand or consolidate territory, France is a breath of fresh air in Europe. This is also the reason why France has always been unified.

    Although there are many nobles and fiefdoms, it is not as scattered as Italy and the Holy Roman Empire, and the kings also hold great power.

    The inheritance of kings is also passed down from father to son. If there is no son, it is passed down from brother to brother. This is different from the Holy Roman Empire. The emperors of the Holy Roman Empire are still elected by electors and do not have any substantive power.

    For France, the recognition of French people is very high.

    Now that they heard that France was destroyed, they naturally felt very uncomfortable and sad. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as lost.

    ¡°As long as the king is still there, France will still be there, and we are always ready to take His Majesty the King back and lead us to drive away the Spaniards!¡±

    "Yes, as long as the king is still there, we France will still be there!"

    ¡°We will drive out the Spaniards one day.¡±

    The residents of the town continued to comfort themselves.

    But in fact, everyone knows that if the king wants to fight back, it will be even more difficult than ascending to heaven.

    The Spaniards are too powerful, with more than 200,000 troops stationed in France. Their advanced rifles shred the armor of knights, their powerful artillery destroyed the castles of nobles, and their sharp sabers broke the bones of the French.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    "Tap~"

    Just when the residents of the town were grieving, the sound of horse hooves galloped from a distance. When the residents of the town heard this, they suddenly became highly nervous, fearing that the Spaniards were coming to kill them.

    Soon, it was really a group of Spanish cavalry escorting several Spanish officials to the small town of Giverny.

    Seeing these Spaniards, the residents of the town were full of hostility, but they did not dare to show off, because these cavalry not only had sabers, but also rifles. Even though there were only more than 100 people, they were enough to conquer the town.  They were slaughtered cleanly.

    One of the leading officials was named John, who was originally a small nobleman nearby. When the Spanish came over, he chose to surrender to the Spanish early. Now he is also appointed as the tax collector of a nearby city.

    ¡°Residents of the town of Giverny, everyone, listen!¡±

    "France has been destroyed. The King of France has abandoned all the French people and exiled them to Ming Hong Kong."

    "From now on, everyone needs to be loyal to the great Emperor Charles V and are the subjects of the great Spanish Empire!"

    John looked at the residents of Giverny Town with anger and murderous intent in their eyes, took out a notice and read it loudly.

    Hearing John¡¯s words, many small town residents began to cry.

    But there are more people who are even more angry and hate the Spaniards in front of them.

    ¡°The great Spanish Emperor Charles V, in order to show his concern for you, decided to give you the land that originally belonged to the nobles for free.After a happy life, it seems that I can take a few more bites of bread from now on.

    At this moment, the residents of the entire town of Giverny were going crazy. They were all running to tell each other, and the whole town was boiling for a while.

    The Spaniards, who were originally enemies, now seem so amiable. They are simply their relatives and parents.

    There is no longer any hatred towards the Spaniards in people¡¯s eyes, instead they are filled with enthusiasm and expectation.

    The Spaniards did not let them wait long. They quickly took out a map and marked out the surrounding land that originally belonged to the nobles. At the same time, they also quickly counted the population of the town.

    This time, the residents of the town were very cooperative. Everyone lined up to count the population, and then they all looked at the fertile land eagerly, looking forward to being allocated a piece of land of their own.

    Diligent farmers have begun to reclaim land very early. In the past, many wastelands were deliberately abandoned by nobles to raise horses, cattle, etc. Now these lands are full of farmers working hard to reclaim them.  .  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
