The Zoroastrian religion dedicated to Arati, the god of fire, was not a large church, barely ranking second in the league, but it was better than the vast diocese, and in the humid and sultry mountains in the northwestern part of the league, nearly thirty percent of the commoners believed that the warm fire would bring them good luck.
Therefore, whether from the perspective of wealth redistribution or from the perspective of national law, this conquest is necessary, and the nobles in the alliance who ask themselves some strength are gearing up for this, and they all begin to calculate how to get a piece of the pie from it.
Strictly speaking, the aristocratic parliament of the alliance is divided into two parts: the upper house and the lower house, but the parliament is usually referred to as the lower house, and it is the upper house that really holds the power of the alliance.
"The upper house met to decide, and the lower house raised its hands in approval by clapping its hands." Chamberlain sat in the small conference room in the upper courtyard and boredomically expressed his appreciation for the Allied form of government, "It is really in line with the advanced nature of the dish-boiled form of government, even if there is any aristocratic republic in the future, this article must be passed on." ā
The room of the House of Lords is indeed very small, not because of the high price of land in the imperial capital, or because of the unsightly deeds here, but simply because of the long history favored by the aristocracy, and on the round table in the center are nineteen chairs, representing the allied royal family and the eighteen founding principalities; The fifty chairs in the outer ring represent the other fifty imperial nobles who signed the Holy Covenant at the time of the founding of the country.
Because it was just in time for the king's Sabbath, Chamberlain met all the imperial nobles at once, and now, they were fiercely discussing the number of troops, their respective quotas, and even the number of massacres, there were dukes and counts, but in the end, only eighteen archdukes could vote by a show of hands.
"I don't recommend a complete purge of Zoroastrianism, it's enough to wipe out the upper echelons of the church and those fanatics, and the shallow believers can convert their faith."
"I don't agree with you, Archduke Clyde, a sect that does not respect the traditions of the League and does not revere the heroic spirit of the League, and their followers obviously do not have a sense of belonging to the Alliance, and we cannot afford to leave behind trouble, even a little seed of instability."
"I agree with the statement of the Grand Duke of Delis that the mercy of Shinrikyo in those years caused countless massacres in the territory of the various principalities of the Alliance, and more than 2.8 million civilians of the League paid the price for it, and my Principality was the hardest hit area, as of the end of last year, a total of 937,833 people were killed, and this number is still increasing."
"Zoroastrianism is different from Shinrikyo in that its followers still identify with the existence of other gods, and they should not be confused with the madmen of Shinrikyo, and we should control the scale of the massacre......"
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
The nobles of the empire expressed their opinions, but no one including the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Marburg, where the Zoroastrians were located, objected to the issue of "slaughtering all the upper echelons of the Zoroastrians", and the point they were entangled with was mainly in the purge of ordinary believers, as if it was not a living life, but a pile of wood that could be lit at any time.
The Grand Duke of Bavaria, Reinhardt, rang the bell, and the conference room fell silent, he looked around and said slowly: "Now vote by a show of hands, and those who agree to completely purge Zoroastrianism please raise your hands." ā
The eight Grand Dukes raised their hands and put them down again.
Archduke Reinhardt said again: "Those who agree to purge only the high-ranking and fanatical believers, please raise your hand." ā
The number of people who raised their hands was only seven, which meant that the other royal families and the other three Grand Dukes had chosen to abstain, and according to the principle of minority obeying the majority in the Confederate Council, the Zoroastrians in the northwestern mountains and forests would be completely purged, and no chickens and dogs would be left.
"Zoroastrianism is located in the northwest mountains and forests, belongs to the second-rate church, according to the convention of the alliance to encircle and suppress rebellion, everyone here will put together an elite army of 100,000 and 200,000 auxiliary troops, and cooperate with the 3,000 soul guards of Valhalla to carry out a crusade." Charles III spoke, and the entire conference room was suddenly filled with a strong smell of blood, "According to the principle of proximity, the number of troops sent by the Duchy of Geniester, which belongs to Zoroastrianism, accounts for ten percent of the total number of troops. ā
Charles III glanced at the audience, and his eyes flashed: "The royal family accounts for ten percent of the total military strength, the duke's unexpected imperial nobles account for seven percent, and the rest of the principalities each account for four percent. ā
The last phrase, "Does anyone have any objections?" echoed through the room, and all the nobles acquiesced to the assignment, their eyes shining not with the bloodthirsty glint that had gone before the battle, but with the characteristic hue of gold coins.
Chamberlain sighed imperceptibly, in an era when the ruling class had absolute personal power in its hands, the commoners, or mortals, were ants, and life and death were nothing more than a matter of words.
As a proletarian medical dog, Chamberlain was a little disgusted by this practice of extermination, but the tradition of the League has always been like this, so if Chamberlain wants to live a long and wonderful life, he has to go with the flow.
So he wanted to stand up and express his opinion, but at this moment, a court earl hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in, muttering a few words in Charles III's ear, Charles III's eyes lit up, waved his hand, and said: "The Zoroastrian Pope has arrived in Modric, they claim to have encountered the turbulence of time and space in the teleportation array, and have produced conclusive evidence to prove that it was done by another church in the southern French Empire, the Vulcan cult that worships the Vulcan god Ancarit. ā
So, in addition to the flash of gold coins, the eyes of all the nobles present had another kind of light, bloodthirsty light.
Archduke Wilson snorted coldly, which set a tone for the next discussion: "The Zoroastrians did not set off in advance, and they had no respect for the traditions of the alliance, so the Vulcan Cult plotted to succeed, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, the pope and the archbishop are all beheaded, eighty percent of the total religious treasury is confiscated, and the Valhalla overseer elects a new pope." ā
As soon as the words turned, Archduke Wilson let out an earth-shattering roar, and the tyrannical aura even directly shocked several nobles below the eighteenth level into serious injuries: "The Vulcan Sect of the French Empire despises the tradition of the alliance and interferes with the alliance's public sacrifice, in order to defend the glory of the alliance, we must increase the number of troops sent ten times before and officially declare war on the French Empire!" ā
"War! War! War! "All the nobles of the empire shouted loudly, for these nobles, a larger war means a larger scale of gains!
In the frenzied atmosphere, Chamberlain stood up a little shyly and said to Charles III: "The territory of the sons has just been established, and the foundation is unstable, so it is not suitable to send troops to war. ā
The atmosphere in the conference room was frozen, and all the nobles, including Charles III, looked at Chamberlain with disdain and anger in their eyes.
However, Chamberlain's words changed sharply, and he said loudly: "Keerchen has nothing else, that is, there is a lot of medicine, and in this foreign war, I can provide 12,000 bottles of various primary potions and about 1,000 bottles of intermediate potions to the front line at cost price every month, all of which are improved versions carefully developed by Erchen." ā
