183 Catalonia becomes independent
“Why is it impossible?
Didn’t I just say it?
Li Wei had no ability and no intention to occupy Catalonia.
If the Black Dragon Legion is treacherous, the Catalan people will be the first to take up weapons to resist the Black Dragon Legion!
Marquis Leonard, please rest assured that neither Carl nor Levi behind him are such short-sighted and crazy people.
What's more, occupying the city of Barcelona is of little significance to the Black Dragon Legion. After all, once we build an independent Kingdom of Catalonia, we can send troops and civilians to help the Black Dragon Legion attack Madrid.
Will Carl not understand this simple and easy-to-understand truth?
Will Li Wei not see it?
It is not something that a fool can do if Levi can achieve what he is today in the French Civil War."
"Okay, that's all that is the case now."
Aragon felt relieved when he saw that Marquis Leonard was finally convinced, and at the same time he looked at Marquis Leonard meaningfully.
"Marquis Leonard, I have been very polite to me since I came in. Have you been thinking about surrendering for a long time?"
"That's not. After all, Li Wei and I are not from the same country. What's the good ending to defect to Li Wei?
You can even see that Li Wei cannot stay in the Spanish Kingdom for a long time, can I not see that?
No matter how fierce the Black Dragon Legion fought in Spain, when they evacuated, aristocrats like me who defected to Li Wei could only give up all their family business and leave. I would do that only when I was crazy!
When I arrived at Li Wei, I was assigned to a small hill or a remote village full of guerrillas to be a small lord. Whether I could maintain my territory was still a question.
Therefore, it is impossible for me to take the initiative to surrender to Li Wei, even if the Black Dragon Legion under his command is really invincible.
But after seeing you, I did have such a slight expectation.
Sure enough, Aragon you are not disappointing.
My family territories are all in the Catalonian region. I believe that serving you will be the best outcome for a local noble like me in the Catalonian region.
If you can make a promise, I can also tell my old friends that their family fiefs are also in the Catalonian region. In the face of the general trend, it is not difficult for them to be a loyal minister of the Catalan Kingdom."
"Ha ha!
Then I have to thank Marquis Leonard for his support first.
The time for the uprising and surrender is tonight. Let’s talk in detail about the specific cooperation of the uprising and surrender.
Then we cannot have a situation where we are in a state of convergence."
"you're right.
Mr. Aragon, please come into my study and talk!”
That night, a signal was sent in the city of Barcelona that the city gate was opened, and Polcha had been prepared and rushed into the city of Barcelona with the vanguard of the Black Dragon Legion.
The battle broke out quickly and ended faster.
The militia and armed citizens of the city, led by the Catalan Independent Organization, quickly controlled the nearby noble private troops to disarm.
The noble generals in Barcelona were recruited by Marquis Leonard to have a meal at his official residence, but the private army under his command had no leader and was about to collapse.
The nobles who gathered for dinner were easily controlled by the guards who were ambushed by Marquis Leonard.
Under the persuasion of Marquis Leonard, most of the controlled nobles were "anyway" and entered the Kingdom of Catalonia, which was about to be independent!
According to the agreement, the Black Dragon Legion did not loot the troops in Barcelona. In fact, the Black Dragon Legion did not encounter any resistance. The moment the Black Dragon Battle Flag appeared in the city, the battle was basically over.
During the entire surrender uprising, the number of casualties was less than three digits...
The next day, with the cooperation of Marquis Leonard, Aragon reorganized more than 30,000 armed forces in the city into a Catalan legion on the spot, and declared that the Catalan region was independent from the Kingdom of Spain and officially established the Kingdom of Catalan!
The Catalonian Independent Organization has surfaced in full swing.
Of course, Carl also got the large amount of military supplies he needed.
They are all the people's fat and cream that were originally found by the local governments of the Kingdom of Spain in the Catalonia region...
Aragon is a blessing from others to repay the help of the Black Dragon Legion!
After the Catalan Legion was adapted, and the city of Barcelona claimed to be the capital of the Kingdom of Catalonia and other matters were put on track, Aragon temporarily handed over government affairs to his confidant, and Marquis Leonard, the aristocratic representative of the Kingdom of Catalonia, was escorted by the Black Dragon Legion, and went to the city of Toulouse to meet Levi with a small number of confidant followers.
This is the only request made by Li Wei!
As for the various supplies provided by the Kingdom of Catalonia, they are just necessary "mutual assistance" in the military alliance.
The Black Dragon Legion provided military protection for the Kingdom of Catalonia during the weak period in its early founding period, and the Kingdom of Catalonia provided strategic supplies to the Black Dragon Legion.
Aragon was asked to meet Levi, which was the condition for Levi to support Aragon as the king of the Kingdom of Catalonia!
Aragon originally thought that this was just Li Wei who wanted to understand his allies and was more confident when he saw him in person. Unexpectedly, this time going north would cause a fundamental change in Aragon's personal beliefs!
When Aragon went north, the independence movement of the Kingdom of Catalonia had reached its climax. The Catalan legion attacked everywhere, and no other small and medium-sized cities and even villages in the Catalonian region resisted.
In addition to some towns that were looted by the Black Dragon Legion and were more resistant to the Black Dragon Legion, the Catalan people maintained great enthusiasm for the establishment of the Independent Kingdom.
During the reign of Carlos IV, the Catalonian region was oppressed as a living area of ‘interracial’, and the Catalans had long been dissatisfied with the rule of the Madrid government.
The journey to Aragon north is very stable, and the security of the Black Dragon Legion is still very good.
This stability also made Aragon feel the last uneasiness in his heart. At least Aragon was sure that Levi did not want to kill him.
Even though Aragon had thought about it repeatedly, Li Wei killed him with only bad things but no good things, and there was also a trace of fear. After all, Li Wei has always been a crazy war tyrant in the eyes of outsiders.
It is possible that any tyrants will have irrational and cruel thoughts!
Of course, even if Aragon is killed at this time, the establishment process of the Kingdom of Catalonia will not be interrupted. The second-in-command of the Catalonian Independent Organization will take over the position and then start a full-scale resistance to the Black Dragon Legion... a security war!
