The Rebellion of the Slings, also known as the Rebellion of the Court Slings.

Hearing this word, Mazarin's face turned red all at once.

For no other reason, the fuse of this riot was lit by the hands of His Excellency the Prime Minister's Secretary.

In order to maintain the huge military expenditure and expand the navy, Mazarin advised the prime minister to try to pass on the huge military expenditure to the middle class, the hereditary judges, and the peasants. Half a month ago, Mazarin proposed to offset the four-year salary of the hereditary judge of the Lüdes High Court in the form of a one-time tax exemption, which provoked outrage. People began to take catapults to the streets for "walks" to put pressure on the government.

Although the events ended with Titans peacefully suppressing the riots, the government's sluggishness, confusion, and cowardice were unmistakable. During the riots, with the exception of some orders issued by Lord Richelieu, the various departments went completely on their own, pulling each other back. There were even people who told the king that they would leave Lüdes for a while and go hunting in other places...... Charlemagne's face has almost been lost at home and abroad, as the initiator and direct responsible person of this incident, if Mazarin had not been sheltered by Prime Minister Richelieu, his head would have moved for a long time, how could he have the opportunity to drink tea and chat with Li Lin here.

Hearing this incident that made him lose face, Mazarin's face certainly didn't look good.

"Please don't dwell on past mistakes, Secretary-General. ”

The corners of Li Lin's mouth rose, revealing a chilling smile, and said:

"As adults, we all know that we can grow through failure, and what we need to discuss here is how to deal with it in the future. ”

"Yes...... That's what you're saying. ”

Suppress the unhappiness churning in your heart. Mazarin replied in a low voice.

Not caring about the estrangement between each other, nor paying attention to Mazarin's personal feelings, the insincere voice continued to dominate the atmosphere in the room.

"If there are any more terrorist attacks in the country that shake the country's foundations, I beg all due respect, the government should put an end to the turmoil with clear and resolute action, and never give any illusions to the anti-establishment elements." ”

“......！”

"In broad daylight, assassinating a major minister of the state in front of the public - so that you can get away with it. This is tantamount to setting an example to other army officers, telling them that it is nothing more than to act so boldly and make a big deal. What do you think they're going to do next? What's the difference between that and holding a blade and handing it to a murderer?"

At best, the Blood Alliance can only be regarded as a collection of a handful of extremists, and even more terrifying is the terrorist organization of the army's young Zhuang faction staff and front-line officers. As far as Li Lin knows. Among them, the most extreme "Heavenly Sword Party" and "Divine Soldiers" are already planning a coup d'état:

"A 'mass' of 10,000 thugs and hooligans marched and demonstrated. Siege of the Supreme Court. Demolition of the aristocratic salon, naval officers' club, Titans Command, Prime Minister's residence. The army urgently assembled, occupied all key departments in the name of protecting key personnel, and cut off all the traffic in and around Lüdes. A lieutenant general entered the Palace of Versailles and declared to the ministers that 'the people do not trust the current cabinet.' Trust only the cabinet headed by the crown prince'. Forcing the in-house to step down. Commencement of the revision of the national system"

-- The day after the terrorists' rebellion was discussed. The Elven version of the plan appeared on Li Lin's desk and was reviewed by the top three "national thieves" on the assassination list

The coup plan seemed to be a little organized, and the organizers seemed to be very careful. The only problem is - a little military common sense. Anyone who knows something about the current political situation in Lüdes will just laugh crazy when they see this infeasible obscenity.

Do these army idiots really think that their opponents are wooden men and will not do anything?

The navy did not have much combat strength in the capital, but there were nearly 3,000 men, and all of them were veterans who had been on warships for many years and had suppressed sailors' rebellions, and they were experts in responding to insurrections; Titans had a division of the capital garrison on the outskirts of Lüdes, and some of them were romantic madmen who liked to line up for shooting, cannon demolition, and so on—both groups of men dreamed of fighting with the army, and if the army made any changes, they were happy to help the army complete suicide.

Keeping a smile that could not be guessed, Li Lin opened his cards.

"No matter how low some people's IQ is and how strict their paranoia is, they are, after all, trained professional soldiers, and they are killers who can eat and sleep. Let a group of Wufu Tong guò terrorist activities take charge of the country's affairs, lead the cabinet by the nose, and finally drag the country into the abyss of ruin, and finally drag the country into the abyss of ruin, right? Therefore, it is necessary to eradicate a dangerous element at the source. ”

"That would mean a purge of the Army, and the balance would be broken. ”

Recovering from his astonishment, Mazarin twitched his face slightly and said:

"What's worse is that the people won't be as long-term as you think. Those mobs only know that this is repression, and those cattle will definitely riot again and put Lüdders ...... No, it's going to turn the whole country upside down!"

This is by no means a delusion of victimization, and Charlemagne, who has a strong sense of rebellion in his bones, can set off a riot as long as he has a cause. In the course of Lüdes's large-scale transformation, Li Lin should have experienced this first-hand and kept in mind that he should not have come up with such a tough countermeasure.

Or is the president planning to stir up unrest and have other plans?

"I'm just a businessman, and I'm not interested in military and political affairs other than interests. ”

The teasing of insight pierced his scalp, and a layer of goosebumps erected on Mazarin's body, and before he could say anything, a deeper layer of terror gripped his heart.

"But the stability of the country and the authority of the law will not allow it to be shaken. If the existing death penalty is not enough to deter the perpetrator, then it is a more deterrent one. Please inform the Prime Minister that I strongly recommend that professional surgeons be sent to assist in the execution of terrorists, and that the fathers, mothers, and wives of terrorists be punished as complicity. The first offender was dismantled with 3,600 knives, the male accomplice was cut into two pieces from the waist with a guillotine, and the female was sold to the navy as a military prostitute. Young and old, all of them are disposed of in this way. ”

"This ...... Mr. President, isn't it too ...... for those family members to have committed a crime?"

Mazarin took out a handkerchief to wipe away the dense sweat on his forehead, but cold sweat continued to pour out.

In Charlemagne's history, there is no shortage of heavy punishments for rebels. Among the nations of mankind, this is already a very heavy punishment. Li Lin's mention of yì far exceeded the scope of extermination in terms of cruelty and scope, and deeply shocked the secretary who had never heard of the essence of torture culture in another world, such as "Yi Sanzu", "Ling Chi", and "Waist Beheading".

Fortunately, the secretary did not know that the president had planned to hold a training course for all judges, explain the "Luo Weaving Sutra" to them, and teach them how to engage in "copying melons and vines" and how to make a fortune from it...... If he heard this, I'm afraid he would really faint with fright.

Li Lin leaned back on the sofa with a sarcastic smile like a knife on his face. For him, who always sits upright, this move can be said to be extremely rare. So much so that in Mazarin's view, it is like a demon king in hell watching a portrait of the soul of a sinner being tortured.

"Responding to toughness with super toughness, that's my answer. ”

The tone of the demon king on the sofa is light, as if talking about the weather. (To be continued......)

PS: Today is Laba, and in the morning I accompanied my girlfriend to Lingyin Temple to incense and Laba porridge. I brought my girlfriend home at noon, and I was busy all day, and I only found a little time to code words in the evening, sorry.
