Chapter 175: It's time to enforce the law according to the law
Although he was busy, the old Knight De Vreich was really satisfied.
He's been going so well lately.
With the help of Sazastan, the captured pirates honestly confessed their crimes, and they were all executed after a public trial.
All went through the serious process, and no detail was missed.
Wu Xin and the old knight Deverlich fought together before they were burned to death.
This gave him an authority second only to Wu Xin among the Xingyue believers.
The same is true among nomadic tribes.
In contrast to the harsh treatment of immigrants, Wu Xin showed great mercy to the nomadic tribes, except for the most populous Gotafi tribe, who were cut into several pieces, and the other tribes were only punished by changing settlements, and of course Wu Xin also made a census of their populations and declared his judicial powers.
Wu Xin poured all the dirty water on the Barbary pirates and ogre tribes through inducement, and those Godafi's daughters had no reason not to support Wu Xin's claim after what happened?
Wu Xin divided the tribes, let the daughters inherit a part of the tribesmen, and then allowed them to choose their own husbands, Wu Xin hoped that they would look at the Hospitaller and the apprentices, but if they chose the natives, he also accepted.
Anyway, Steglenburg has already booked a beauty, and that "eagle majesty" is really not wasted.
The only thing that bothered Wu Xin a little was that this Stegrenberg had some stale ideas in his head, and he insisted on monogamy and wanted his wife to convert to Bane.
This greatly hindered national integration, and Wu Xin was very dissatisfied with this.
Of course he wants the women who marry in to convert, but there's no need to shout about it, it's better to fool the women into their communities and then eat away at their brains.
This is the upper route. There is also the lower route Wu Xin, which is one case of providing a chance to get a wife for poor men who do not have wives, and there is also the case of the old Deverich, the old knight, relying on Wu Xin's military strength, was able to overcome the conservative forces in the tribe and give most nomads a judicial system that is far more just than in the past. Some cases were also investigated, which were not complicated, but only involved old cases involving the second generation of various tribal officials.
The tribal leaders who received Wu Xin's lenient treatment did not dare to touch his moldy head again at this time, and they all honestly obeyed the verdict.
Several bad-hearted and spoiled gentlemen have paid the price for their frivolous willfulness.
These measures also greatly increased Wu Xin's reputation among the Xingyue immigrants, but although he gained strength by using this tactic of mobilizing the masses, he did not want the mass movement to continue to develop, because continued development would inevitably produce new authorities that could confront him.
So he wants to restore authority, and the most important step in restoring authority. It is to restore the prestige of justice.
And compared with the chaotic public trial and shady whistleblowers, in fact, 99% of the people still like the solemn courtroom.
Who would want their life and honor to be lost in the gloomy alleys and chaos, and it would be better to die or be punished, and to hear the verdict of the majestic judge in a gown.
All the cases handled by the elder Devellisch went through a set of red tape that dazzled the locals, and Wu Xin bought old Devreich expensive dresses and exquisite unicorn wooden hammers from the Old Continent. Even let him work in a wig.
Old Deverich didn't quite understand it at first, but after a few trials. After discovering that most of the plaintiffs and defendants did respect him more because of his dress, they accepted this strange decoration.
Wu Xin continued to use the Codex of the Knights Hospitaller for the time being, and he hadn't thought about which path he would take in the future.
Of course, there are also some departmental budgets that have almost disappeared.
Because of Sazastan's sleepless work, Wu Xin only kept a little money for the female knight Deverich. Her intelligence service is now semi-paralyzed.
However, she did not complain at all, but was very worried about Wu Xin's budget for her father.
She hugged her lover in her arms and said softly, "Everyone else is a thatched hut, isn't it too much to build a marble court for my father?" ”
Although the finances were difficult, the first marbles would not be sold. Wu Xin has already booked the first batch of marbles.
Wu Xin not only booked marble, but also forcibly sent a donation mission in Tripoli, asking wealthy families to donate money to the court.
Wu Xin had always only intended to exempt the poor from taxes, and the rich were nominally the same, but in reality there was no need for this.
In short, Wu Xin had already budgeted for the marble court, which of course made Father Erlan, who worked in the leaky brick government building, extremely jealous.
After his request for a marble government building was rejected by Wu Xin, several knights and apprentices who followed him complained fiercely.
Like what kind of cold woman with cold marble or something.............
Wu Xin doesn't care about whining, he believes that power does not come from not letting his subordinates speak, but from balance and prestige.
He took advantage of the opportunity to make up for the immigrants, and in fact broke up the various departments, and the division between the executive branch and the judiciary was broken.
Italians, Germans, Hungarians, now they are spitting on each other according to the department.
Although national attributes are inevitably more important when it comes to essential interests, this distribution still eases ethnic antagonism.
The main contradiction is mixed with the secondary contradiction, so that Wu Xin has more means of reconciliation.
"After taking over most of the property of the Godafi tribe and selling Bursa and Turgut, I can afford to build a big house, but the government housing doesn't have to be too good, and it's actually a good thing that the government office building is broken." Wu Xin didn't seem to answer the question, and then he hugged the female knight tightly, feeling her cold and powerful body. "The courts don't save money, the court buildings are more beautiful than the government buildings, and they make people trust the law."
"Don't think about it anymore, we're going to be out soon."
The female knight Dverrich did not ask Wu Xin the direction of "going out", but began another exchange between men and women.
…………
But before leaving Tripoli, Wu Xin had one more important thing to do.
The entire internal rectification work is basically completed, and only the last part is still to be completed.
For this reason, Wu Xin summoned all his important subordinates in his new office.
Cassano, De Vreich the Elan, Kessler the first.
"Your Excellency, according to your order, some of the grievance meetings organized by the soldiers themselves have been cancelled." Cassano was the first to speak, the issue of the army is the most important, and where there is chaos, the army cannot be chaotic. "The soldiers who took the lead have been severely whipped, and the situation has been brought under control."
"These soldiers are never allowed to be promoted to officers, and if there is any sympathy for their thoughts, the officers must be dealt with immediately." Wu Xin nodded, and added, "Distribute the armor to the soldiers as soon as possible, and raise the food standard by one-fifth." ”
Delicious food and excellent equipment can stabilize the soldiers, and Wu Xin doesn't want to really release the beast.
After all, he is no longer only the first mate Wu Xin, but also the head of the Tripoli port group, Cesare Sibo.
Of course, it's just the first mate Wu Xin, but he doesn't really like that beast.
Old Deverrich felt that Wu Xin was about to fully restrain his actions, so he said: "Then the accusations received by the families in the castle recently have also been suppressed, and some witnesses have also been thrown to those families?" ”
These families all took refuge in Wu Xin from the beginning, and the hard evidence they provided was the key to Wu Xin's ability to destroy the cohesion of the people of Xingyue.
Propaganda cannot be separated from lies, let alone without facts.
But even these families who know the direction of the wind will inevitably be bitten at the grievance meeting, not to mention the rebellious families who were exterminated by Wu Xin, and they are also fighting all kinds of things in order to survive, and there are many true things among them.
It is inevitable that large families will have dead branches and leaves.
"Why?!" Wu Xin's voice was quite surprised. "Administering the law is the foundation of justice, and I personally want to review the confusion of thinking caused by my failure to fully follow the judicial system some time ago, Kessler is the first, and you must also review it."
Kessler, who has recently received a lot of Wu Xin's divine powers, hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, yes." I review that those death sentences were grossly wrong without the approval of His Excellency Sibo and Judge De Vrerich. ”
He has now consolidated the realm again, and he is not far from the "core".
"This is the only time, not the next one." Wu Xin's words are serious, and no one can judge his truth.
However, old Deverichy was overjoyed, whether it was true or not, it was a good thing to greatly strengthen his position: "Then for the family that moved into the castle, the same is the law according to the law?" ”
"Enforce the law in accordance with the law, there is no partiality, but the process must be clear, kill what should be killed, and fine what should be fined." Wu Xin will not let go of these families' money.
He had never promised not to pursue the crimes of these families, and to give them the real estate in the castle for free, which was their reward for betraying their compatriots.
At least that's how Wu Xin explained his behavior, and as for those families who would think that he broke his word and got fat, he didn't care.
He did distinguish between them and the families who launched the "petition".
Those who control the field army are already credible.
To raise the standard of food, to buy armor, money is never enough.
And if you want to enrich the country and strengthen the army, there will never be too few "wealthy families". (To be continued......)
