Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 549: The Death of the Great Sheikh

Unemas, the great chief of the Russmans, the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia. Dia Mordriguez's death was in a sense a search for his own death, and he overestimated the identity value of his great chief, confident that, at this time of colonial upheaval, the colonial officials of the Kingdom of Riznia would rely on his status as a great chief to appease the restless Ruthmans and thus embark on the path of death themselves.

In the hearts and minds of more than three million Russmans in the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia, Unemas... Dia Moderigus is the best chief. He was just and benevolent and apologized to his servant for having wronged his wife, Russman, who had tried to reconcile herself with her immigrant employer in the Kingdom of Riznia and had pleaded guilty to her defeat with sufficient evidence. This gave him a great reputation, which the Ruthmans called our godfather. The local officials of the colony also paid tribute to him as a Russman who understood the law and was able to abide by it.

Unemas. For nearly three decades, Dia Modrigues has been the chief of the Russmans, with tens of thousands of results from events and rulings he has tried, but few have disagreed with his trials and rulings. For nearly three decades, Unemas... Great Sheikh Dia Modrigues has worked tirelessly to change the traditional practices and laziness of the Russmans by promoting basic education for the Russmans.

(Note: The chief here does not mean the chief of the tribe, but the chief executive officer. Just like the Lord Chancellor, final hearings and rulings were handed down on conflicts between the Russmans and also between tribes.

In the eyes of the intelligence agents of the Overseas Autonomous Forces, Unemas... Chief Dia Modrigus is the best flag to lead the Ruthmans against the colonial rule of the Kingdom of Reason. But what they didn't expect, Unemas. Chief Dia Modrigues is not a radical nationalist; rather, he cherishes peace and does not like violence. While he was equally dissatisfied with the colonial oppression and exploitation of the Russmans, he believed in the law, believing that the struggle for peace and the law of equality and justice would one day bring hope to the Russmans...

Unemas. The only mistake made by Grand Chief Dia Modrigues was to receive arms assistance from autonomous military districts, and 15,000 new types of fire rope guns convinced military intelligence agents that the Russmans, like the Pamigals, soon launched an armed uprising for national liberation and independent statehood. It was not at all expected that the Grand Chiefs would receive such arms assistance with the aim of arming the Russmans in self-defence and protecting the Russmans in the colony from the fighting caused by the armed uprising of neighbouring Pamigals.

Only after four Hicks volunteer regiments moved a little too quickly to destroy and crush three standing regiments in the Kingdom of Riznia, they swept the majority of the colonies and handed over all looted towns to the local Russman tribe for management. Even Unemas. Chief Dia Modrigus strictly forbids Ruthman tribes everywhere from participating in the war between the Hicks Volunteer Corps and the colonists of the Kingdom of Riznia, and there are always lonely Ruthman tribes to take over towns that have been plundered by the Hicks Volunteer Corps...

Unemas with a headache. Grand Sheikh Dia Modrigues could only reject the persuasion of his family and friends and was reluctant to meet with the envoys sent by the Hicks volunteer corps. He insisted on travelling to the colonial capital, Castle Salat, to meet with colonial officials, hoping that the misunderstandings would be explained and that it was a lie that the Hicks volunteer group had claimed to have come to the Ruthmans at his invitation to help them achieve national liberation and independent statehood.

It's just Unemas. Grand Chief Dia Moderigus overestimated the measure of those officials in the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia and did not anticipate how victory and defeat on the battlefield had changed him personally. Even though he expressed the readiness of the Ruthmann self-defence forces to fight the invading Hicks volunteer regiment with the colonial garrison to restore peace to the colony, he was greeted with suspicion and scrutiny by the colonial officials, and no colonial official was willing to believe his words...

If, before the invasion of the Pamigal National Republic by three regiments of the Kingdom of Riznia, Unemas... Grand Chief Dia Modrigues said something like that, and perhaps some colonial officials would believe that he would be encouraged to do so and perhaps also to issue him a medal of friendship. But now that the three standing armies of the Kingdom of Riznia have been wiped out, when only a small area remains in the hands of the colonial authorities, the colonial officials who heard it are wondering, what is the point of the Great Sheikh's words? Do you want to go inside or something?

So an official raised the hope that Unemas... Chief Dia Modrigus stopped the attack by two heavily approaching Hicks divisions. And the Great Sheikh helped them by ordering the Russman tribes that took over the fallen local towns to send local officials and Kingdom immigrants trapped in the concentration camps here to ensure their physical safety. Only after these two things will the colonial authorities believe that the Ruthmans did not rebel against the kingdom...

Unemas with his chest full. Great Sheikh Dia Modrigues did so, and the two Hicks volunteer regiments did indeed stop the attack, confronting the few defensive forces in the capital, Castle Salat, without blocking the messengers travelling to various locations and sending orders and request letters to various towns and cities. Soon, those trapped in concentration camps in the fallen towns were released and rushed to Salat Castle in a rudimentary carriage.

Unemas. Dia Moderigus had no idea that he had been placed under house arrest by colonial officials after doing so, and all those who saw him, even his guards, cursed him for treason in the kingdom, even his entourage had been severely beaten and expelled, and soon he was left alone in a small stone house...

As the number of royal immigrants and local officials returning from failing towns grows, Unemas soon... The news of the incarceration of Grand Sheikh Dia Modrigues in the castle came out, and the kingdom migrants, who had lost their homes and even loved ones, yelled at the colonial authorities to execute this greatest Ruthman rebellion. Because of what happened to them, they were convinced that the Russmans had colluded with the Hicks Volunteer Corps and started a colonial insurgency.

Over two hundred years of colonial rule, there was a natural line of racial discrimination between the immigrants of the Kingdom of Riznia and the Russmans. It is the white immigrants who are noble and the Russmans who are lowly. More or less in everyday life, there have always been incidents of Royal immigrants bullying the Ruthmans.

When the Hicks volunteer corps pillaged towns and held immigrants from those towns in concentration camps and handed them over to the Russmans, there were likewise many Russmans who took revenge, or reprisals against those immigrants and their families. For example, the young wives and daughters of immigrant families are the favorites of Ruthman...

Ridiculously, these immigrants in the Kingdom of Riznia do not hate the Hicks Volunteer Corps, which looted their property, most likely because of white people. Of course, the failure to harm these migrants and their families during the looting process is also a cause.

In addition, all officers and soldiers of the Hicks Volunteer Corps have spoken out that they are mercenaries, that the Ruthmans have paid a great price to invite them here, that the Ruthmans want to emulate the Pamigals, to be nationally liberated and to establish their country independently...

As for the price paid by the Russmans, it is not very clear to the officers below them, but the officers above are very satisfied. It is said that the agreement was reached with the great chiefs of the Ruthmans, as well as with many tribal chiefs and elders. Anyway, the officers above promised that every officer and soldier would earn a fortune after completing their goal...

So the hatred of these released immigrants from the Kingdom of Riznia easily shifted to the Ruthmans, who joined forces at Castle Salat to demand severe punishment for the Ruthmans, not to mention the captive chief. By the time the young and strong had jumped into the army and even the gray-haired and pale elderly had wiped the torch gun ready to take revenge on the Ruthmans with their own hands, the officials of the colony could no longer hold back the angry public opinion.

So, when the head of the Pamigal National Republic, Tez Singh... After Nora Taganem said that the Hicks Volunteer Corps was not under his jurisdiction and had accepted the employment of the Russmans in the face of an ambassador from an overseas autonomous military region who had come to question him, Unemas... The life of Grand Sheikh Dia Modrigues came to an end.

Unemas is said to be facing hanging. Chief Dia Modrigus said to the colonial prison officials: "Kill me and you will cut off hope for peace. ”

But the prison officials were angry and reprimanded: "You rebel leader should have died long ago! You've been lying to us, and if you weren't rebellious, why would those Hicks mercenaries obey your orders! You lied to us that you had no contact with the Hicks, but they handed over all the towns they had captured to you Ruthmans..."

Unemas. Great Sheikh Dia Modrigues smiled bitterly, sighed and stopped talking with his eyes closed, leaving the executioner to put a noose over his head. As the bell rang, the pedal beneath his feet opened, and the great chief, revered by the Ruthmans as the Godfather, was hanged on the gallows like this, accompanied by a thunderous cheer and the fists of countless Russnian immigrants raised in mid-air, who gained a revenge pleasure...

The situation in the colonies of the West Coast countries in November 603 is unusually strange. First was the Patriotic War in the Pamigal National Republic, in which three legions of Pamigalis resisted an attack by a standing regiment and a reserve regiment of the Principality of Vasiliko. After more than two months of fighting, Pamigalis had been converted into attackers, defeating the Army Festival of the Principality of Vasiliko and even counterattacking the border line into the colony of the Principality of Vasiliko.

The remainder of the army of the Principality of Vassilico is already out of alignment with one regiment, and the only thing they can do in the face of the aggressive offensive posture of the Pamigals' armed forces is to constantly draw local guards to join the front-line positions in defensive combat. But the mobilization of the rear forces and the void in the local guard force also drove the Colonies of Skolo and Gistad into foolishness, and many towns witnessed outbreaks of immigrant and indigenous conflict riots...

How could the officials of the colony of the Principality of Vassilico, crying without tears, fail to come up with a defensive battle to divide the colony of the Kingdom of Morosik into their own colony? Moreover, the Colonies of Skolo and Gistad appeared to be responding to armed uprisings by the Pamigals, and the aggravated colonial officials of the Principality of Vassilico had to send envoys to neighbouring OPSAL colonies to request help.

At the time of the attack by more than 300,000 troops of the five regiments of the Kingdom of Riznia and the Principality of Vassilico, almost all those concerned with the independence of the Pamigals believed that the war would soon come to an end and that the nascent Pamigal National Republic would soon perish. As a result, three months later, the Principality of Vassilico changed from an invasion to a defense and had to request support from other countries.

Three regiments of the Kingdom of Riznia had been extinguished, and even the colony had been swept over most of the territory by four Hicks volunteer regiments. Then the operation, which the bystanders could not understand, took place when two Hicks volunteer regiments confronted the defensive forces of the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia and took advantage without launching an offensive. The other two Hicks volunteer regiments suddenly attacked the colony of Rodex Bay in the United Kingdom, the leading Fox Islands...

Following the seizure of the Rodex Bay colony, two Hicks volunteer regiments attacked the Overseas Autonomous Rocky Mountain State, defeating a local guard regiment and pillaging three gold mining bases. The Overseas Autonomous Territory was furious at the news, sending the Rock Third Division north and defeating the two Hicks Volunteer Regiments and occupying the Rodex Bay colony after heavy fighting and heavy casualties.

So, the situation on the West Coast in November was that the Rodex Bay colony of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland became a new occupation of the Overseas Autonomous Territories, and the angry Overseas Autonomous Territories sent envoys to blame the Pamigal National Republic. As a result, it was learned that the four Hicks volunteer regiments had ended their employment relationship with the Pamigals and were now mercenaries to the Ruthmans in the colonies of the Kingdom of Riznia...

This is similar to the case of the Hicks prisoners, who had been freed by the Overseas Autonomous Territories themselves, who, when they were hired by the Pamigals to form a volunteer corps, were once again disgruntled by the armed Hicks, resented at the failure of the colonial war that year and took the opportunity to launch a provocative attack on the Overseas Autonomous Territories.

However, the Autonomous Territory was more forceful, defeating two Hicks volunteer regiments with one enemy and one rock division, and seizing the colony of the Gulf of Rodex, although the casualties were said to be somewhat high.

Consequently, the Autonomous Territorial Military Region announced the urgent redeployment of the Rock I and II divisions stationed in the Nasri region in the eastern part of the Farea continent back to the Overseas Autonomous Territories in order to strengthen their defensive forces, resist attacks by clandestine enemies and stabilize the hearts and minds of the Overseas Autonomous Territories.

Moreover, according to information received from the colonies of the Kingdom of Riznia, the two Hicks volunteer regiments who launched provocative attacks against the overseas autonomous territories did not attract much cheap. Fifty-six thousand people returned to only a few thousand and were dispersed by the Hicks Volunteer 1st and 2nd Division to fill casualty war damage vacancies. That is, the Hicks 3rd and 4th divisions are just like that...

Immediately after the confusion between the Autonomous Territory and the Hicks Volunteer Regiment had just come to an end, officials of the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia, somehow insane, would voluntarily go to the capital, Salat Castle, to take hostage to the great chief of the Ruthmans, Unemas. Dia Modrigues sentenced her to death and hanged her on a gallows. The news came out that all the Russmans had been provoked by the gathering of young men, waving their weapons and marching towards Salat Castle.

Unemas. The death of Grand Chief Dia Modrigus truly opened the scene of the Ruthman rebellion in the colony of the Kingdom of Riznia. At a time when four Hicks volunteer regiments had swept over most of the colonies, the Ruthmans had not been truly involved in the armed uprising against the colonists.

The Russmans in the districts did not take the initiative to attack the royal immigrants in those towns and even continued to work in their homes. After receiving the transfer of the Hicks to their towns, they treated immigrants and officials in those camps well. Although there have been a number of acts of reprisal and harm against immigrants and local officials in the Kingdom of Riznia, after all, a few have not been fatal...

Received Unemas. When Grand Chief Dia Modrigues sent a letter demanding the release of the Royal immigrants detained in the concentration camps, these Ruthmans did not hesitate to carry out the order and even provided transport, such as wagons, for these immigrants far away. It is only unfortunate that they did not expect that their kindness was not well paid and that the Great Sheikh was hanged on the gallows by the colonial officials of the Kingdom of Riznia.

The death of the Great Sheikh was inexcusable for all Ruthmans, because he had taken the initiative to go to Castle Salat, where, according to the tradition of the Ruthmans, he had been a guest, while his master had captured him and hanged him in public on a gallows. This is the greatest insult to the Russman nation, whose blood debt must be repaid with blood, which is also one of the traditional Russman customs.

The colonies of the Kingdom of Riznia came to a final end, and even with the strength of the 20,000 or 30,000 immigrants armed, they could not resist the relentless attacks launched by the Ruthmans with the help of two Hicks volunteer corps. In the next three or four months, the colonies of the Kingdom of Riznia will be bloodbathed with killing. Almost all the immigrant men and the elderly and the infirm of the Kingdom of Riznia will be slaughtered, and only young women will be left to become Russmans * * *...

Only a handful of Russnian immigrants sheltered by the Hicks Volunteer Corps escaped from birth, including a pair of younger brothers, who went through these brutal years together, and who later became a famous literary man who wrote a classic book, The Age of Killings, which unveiled this bloody chapter of history...
