two hundred and seventy-nine

In short, we only need to understand now that the existence of money, its power and magic has shown that it is a destructive force in our current human era. It can also allow capitalists to directly confront the king, so

After we fully understand this, let's look at the current situation of Charlie's world.

After Charles I announced that he was going to conquer Parliament, the news reached London in a very short time. At this time, the Parliament and other bourgeois people below understood that King Charles I was definitely not joking with them.

There are only two choices now. One is to agree with the feudal system of Charles I and completely submit to the king's rule. The other is to continue to resist. But almost all the bourgeoisie have chosen to resist because this situation is really too profitable.

It was completely worth their risk. Then there were the civilians who couldn't figure out these things at all. They all felt that the bourgeoisie was very suitable for their survival and began to resist the king. In the end, this caused the bourgeoisie to panic and assemble a large number of troops.

, this is actually not difficult to imagine. The bourgeoisie has already obtained a lot of money from civilians, and then uses this money to turn the people into armies again. This is completely reasonable, because the only purpose of everyone's current life is money!

At this time, the feudal nobles in the north and west of England believed that these new nobles were a group of demons. They had no military exploits, were not hereditary, and did not even make any contributions to the world. They were just enslaving a large number of civilians.

, just doing what they were doing originally, so they don’t admit from the bottom of their hearts that these useless rich people can become aristocrats, so these aristocratic forces in the feudal system all support Charles I,

And he also directly joined the army.

Then it must be that in southern England, including London, where industry and commerce are relatively developed, many new bourgeois aristocrats, citizens and even farmers have expressed their support for Parliament. At this point, we can regard this situation as a civil war.

Although it was a struggle between the feudal system and the new bourgeoisie, for the country as a whole, it was undoubtedly a civil war.

After this large-scale civil war began, because the king's army must have been well-trained, it was the army of the original country, and the army of the new aristocrats was recruits enslaved with money. They were all untrained.

This itself is an army formed in extreme panic, but because the new nobles are very rich, they also have many weapons. But despite this, the weapons of the king's army are also very sophisticated? So the new nobles

The improvised army simply killed countless people, but who were these dead people? Aren't they civilians? Could it be that the new nobles died? No, they thought that the new nobles were civilians who had better policies than the king.

They died in large numbers. In short, we can also think that the army of the new nobles was retreating steadily. They were no match for the king's army. There were corpses everywhere and the sight of rivers of blood. Of course, this also foreshadowed the families of many civilians.

The family was broken up and people died.

King Charles I led his army all the way to Oxford, which was very close to London. At this time, the parliamentarians in the city of London suddenly became confused. Some advocated resolute resistance to the end, while others advocated that it is better to escape first. They must first

Save your life? Some people think that they are not the king's opponents at all. They are just a group of new nobles. How can they compete with the king's army? Therefore, these councilors advocated negotiating with the king, that is, accepting the king's needs.

A bill to collect taxes from their bourgeoisie. So the chaos has reached this point. At this time, the leader of the parliament stood up and first strongly condemned those who advocated escape or peace. The leader of the parliament advocated peace with the king.

The army fought to the death.

Under this situation, these congressmen actually understood very well that even if they negotiated a peace or escaped, they would never get anything good in the end anyway. Will Charles I let them go easily? This is completely unlikely, so at present

In a fight to the death with Charles I, if you lose, you will die anyway, but what if you win? Then this is another matter. This is a huge temptation of interests, so at this time, all the undecided MPs saw that the leader was so determined

, so I have no choice but to agree.

Cromwell was the son of a newly born nobleman. After the civil war broke out, he used money to recruit more than 60 peasants to form a cavalry, joined the parliamentary army, and then fought against the king's army. Because Cromwell

Cromwell's army was highly disciplined, fought very bravely, repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, and its numbers continued to increase. Therefore, he soon won the support of the Parliamentary Army and even the majority of officers and soldiers. Cromwell also became the Parliamentary Army.

The commander-in-chief.

Then one evening in July 1644, at Marston Meadows on the western outskirts of York, the king's army fought a decisive battle with the Parliament's army. King Charles I's army had more than 11,000 infantry, and

There are more than 7,000 cavalry, while the parliamentary army has more than 20,000 infantry and more than 7,000 cavalry. The commander of the king's army is Rupert. At this moment, Rupert looked at the dark parliamentary army, and then asked the attendant

:Did Cromwell come too? The attendant quickly replied: Yes, he is here.

After hearing this answer, Rupert let out a long sigh, because he knew that Cromwell was good at fighting, and in addition, the army of Parliament was more numerous than the king's army, so for Rupert, he

Said that this war is actually very difficult to win. Just when Rupert was preparing to go to dinner, the parliamentary army divided into three groups, shouted and then launched a charge towards the king's army. This was completely unexpected by Rupert.

He was unable to do so, so he hurriedly deployed his troops and began to fight.

Under the command of Rupert, the King's Army first defeated the left wing of the Parliamentary Army. At this time, Cromwell led a very elite cavalry to attack Rupert. After Rupert saw this situation,

Immediately frightened, he turned his horse around and ran away in embarrassment. This was terrible, because the king's army immediately lost its commander, and the king's army was instantly in chaos, and the parliamentary army took the opportunity to launch a general attack. The king's army was massive.

Defeat! The ground was full of corpses and rivers of blood flowed. It was simply too horrible to watch! But many people died in the parliamentary army. It’s not that their army didn’t die. Anyway, too many people died in both armies. In fact,

They might have been friends before, right? But now their positions are different, so they are just like enemies, showing no mercy when fighting each other.

So in the end we can say that the parliamentary army won. This is an indisputable fact. So the parliamentary army began to gradually grow in size again. This is the power of money! It is also the choice made by everyone who yearns for money, so in the parliamentary army

After many wars, they captured Charles I in the summer of the next year. However, Charles I quickly escaped, but in the end a civil war broke out again, because Charles I was the king, and he was unwilling to give up on himself.

The power of the people made these bourgeois demons. However, when Charles I fought the second civil war with the parliamentary army, after all, the parliamentary army was purely for the concept of money, so the parliamentary army was also very powerful and the number was very large. Therefore, Charles

During the second large-scale civil war in I, he was captured by the parliamentary army and became a prisoner.

On January 30, 1649, the London court declared that Charles I was a tyrant, a traitor, a murderer, and even an enemy of the people, and sentenced him to death. In fact, everyone now understands that as long as the king is removed, they will

There is money to be made, but they don’t understand the deeper truth. In short, according to our today’s ideological concepts, whether it is the tyrant-like Charles I or the so-called new bourgeoisie, they are all the same existence.

, they are just a group of demons. However, the current situation is that the bourgeois army is victorious. We must also understand that any truth in this world and the so-called correctness of anything are completely decided by the winner.

, the so-called winner takes all. So if we use this concept to understand the situation of Charles I at present, then he is not unjust at all, but the real unjust one is that he was so confused that he had to count the money for others when he was sold.

People, these extremely confused people are civilians, but when it comes to being wronged? It’s really hard to say. There are many factors involved.

First of all, civilians cannot figure out this kind of thing. Originally, it was caused by the long-term restraint of senior officials on their spiritual world and even the amount of thinking and knowledge. Then, these formed closed-minded logics cannot accept new ideas at all, so they cannot see it.

They are aware of the environment around them and even cannot understand the essence of some things. Another is that these civilians have been working all their lives and have no time to study. They were once exploited by the king to the point where they were no longer human, so in the end, we

It must be said that there is a problem with the civilians' thinking and logic, so they are not unjustly accused, and it is correct. But it is also correct to say that their thinking and logic are unable to clarify the essence of the incident due to other reasons, so they are not unjustly accused.

So far, there is no better conclusion or absolute definition for this kind of thing. Anyway, we only need to understand that in the civil wars fought between the parliamentary army and the king's army, countless civilians died. This is an indisputable fact.

, because even the king's army is composed of civilians, and in fact, the people who died were just civilians.

But what should we say about this matter now? At this time, Charles I is the king, but now he has been sentenced to death by the victorious party. This is definitely not a joke. Charles I, who is dressed in black, is currently at this time

, he had long lost his previous arrogant look, his face was pale, his eyes were dull, and his whole body was trembling.

Then the executioner used a very sharp ax to chop off the neck of Charles I. The head of Charles I fell to the ground, covered with mud and water, and the people cheered. Even when the executioner held the head of their king,

During the public demonstration, a woman fainted on the spot, which shows how terrifying this is. But let’s talk about it later. After this, the United Kingdom established a republic. The bourgeois revolution actually achieved success during this period.
