Chapter 439: Sad Aristocrats, Reshuffle!
The day after the meeting dispersed, Stewart was busy with the matter of recruiting merit, and Mario and the others were also quite busy. Nature's "『
Early in the morning, rumors began to spread in the city of thorns that the mysterious monarch of the Duchy of Thorns appeared yesterday, and thundered at the court meeting, severely sanctioning a large number of nobles.
No, the genius was slightly hazy, and General Mario and General Lesnoke led their elite troops directly into the city to raid the homes of the major nobles.
The City Gate Army is led by a veteran of Blackstone Town, and he turns a blind eye to the actions of his old bosses, although His Majesty the monarch has ordered that these people will be dealt with after a thorough investigation.
But according to the temper of these tiger and wolf masters, as long as it is someone that Adam hates, he will directly raid the house!
In the Duchy of Thorns, no one but His Majesty the Great King could make these unruly generals obedient, and with Stewart's tacit attitude, these guys acted even more rampantly.
I have long heard that these noble families are very rich, and their ancestors have earned a lot of wealth in the Tianying Principality for generations, and now that the dynasty has changed, the Thorn Flower Principality will never allow such moths to stay!
It's better to kill 10,000 by mistake than to let one go! This is General Mario's order!
The army entered the city, the chickens flew and the dogs jumped, and the nobles panicked, but these soldiers and brothers did not disturb the ordinary people, and directly picked the mansions of the major nobles, and directly kicked open the door to raid the house to collect the materials!
Later, Stewart didn't bother to hide it, and clearly told the two generals that Adam's meaning was to quickly cut through the mess and kill those people in the country who had inconsistent arguments as soon as possible!
Of course, this kind of order, whether it is Stewart as the hand of the king or Adam as the king, is difficult to say clearly, because it will probably hurt his own popularity.
Stewart told the two that the matter of raiding the house was publicized to the outside world that the two generals had misunderstood the meaning of the above, and made a decision in a hurry, and then went back and waited for the house to be copied, and then found some excuses to punish the two of them a little.
Of course, in order to avoid dissatisfaction among the soldiers below, half of the materials obtained were all divided between the two!
To do these dishonorable things for His Majesty, Mario and Lesnoke...... That's quite exciting!
Lesnock gave the order in the first place!
"These aristocratic lords, the prestige is closed on weekdays, Lao Tzu just can't get used to their style, the brothers will raid the house first, and I and General Mario will bear the consequences!"
"Thirty percent of all the materials collected will go to the soldiers, and 10 percent will be confiscated into the army as military funds! The remaining 10 percent will be contributed to Your Majesty! The other 50 percent will belong to the state treasury! No one shall embezzle materials!"
"Each chooses a good target, takes a team of 100 people, and goes out to raid the house!"
I have to say that the two of them have a very good set of soldiers, and they are deeply influenced by Allen, and the soldiers under their hands can not only fight well, but also obey the law, as long as it is a military order, no one dares to disobey it easily!
In Mario's words: "It's not a house-raiding! It's not a drill! It's a fight!"
In just three days, the major nobles of the City of Thorn Flowers suffered one after another, and only a small number of low-key nobles survived.
Adam was quite satisfied with the 10 percent wealth contributed by the two of them, and this small 10 percent was worth tens of millions of divine favor coins! It can be seen how many materials these noble families have hidden in the Tianying Principality over the years!
It's a complete national moth!
As a result of this action, the treasury was much fuller, and the military funds and materials for attacking the three principalities were originally insufficient, but after the raid, the military expenses were completely sufficient!
But considering that after fighting the three major principalities, it will be a big war when the time comes, and it may turn into a war of attrition, and with the current treasury economy of the Duchy of Thorns, there is no way to support such a war.
What to do?
"Continue to raid the house! Secretly order the generals of the garrison army in the three major provinces! Give me all the house! Leave the local officials alone! As long as there is a tainted nobleman, find me a reason to go to prison!" This is an order from Adam: "The previous one is very good, according to the old rules, 30 percent to the army! 10 percent to the officers! 10 percent to the officers! 50 percent to replenish the treasury! Within this month, the Great Purge must be completed!"
"But there is one thing to keep in mind, if there is a disturber, there will be no forgiveness! There will be no forgiveness for those who fish in troubled waters!
In the three major provinces and regions of the Duchy of Thorns, political officials and military officials are completely separated, the army is in charge of the veterans of Blackstone Town who have been promoted, and the government affairs are in charge of the former Thorn Flower officials.
One side is responsible for the construction and economy of the province, and the other side is responsible for public security and safety in the province, and they restrain and supervise each other.
As soon as this order was issued, the veterans of Blackstone Town in all provinces and regions went completely crazy!
What your lord said at the beginning was right! The people of Blackstone Town will be promoted sooner or later! Now that they have been promoted, the money is coming now!
With the benefit of 30 percent of the supplies going to the soldiers of the army, no one can stop these red-eyed soldiers! The Duchy of Thorns is completely in chaos, and the nobles everywhere are wailing and crying to the sky!
This purge of the Thorn Duchy made the high-level personnel of other countries drop their jaws one after another, is the monarch of the Thorn Duchy crazy? Why should he make a mess of the domestic situation that has finally stabilized?
Is he afraid that the army of the Duchy of Thorns will take advantage of the situation to rebel together?
Adam is not crazy, all the armies in the Duchy of Thorns, whether they are junior officers or high-level officers, are guarded by veterans from Blackstone Town, and their loyalty can be displayed in the manual!
They seem to be very much like a rebellion, but in fact, every move is within the scope of Adam's expectations, only the nobles are moved, and the people are not harmed.
This is Adam's policy of cutting through the mess with a quick knife! Directly purging the old domestic forces and moth-eaten aristocrats with violence, returning a large number of materials to enrich the treasury, and at the same time issuing an order to seek talents, and quickly replenish the lack of talents in the country!
It's an extraordinary time, and you have to use extraordinary methods!
Three major policies, three prongs! Adam didn't believe that the Duchy of Thorns could not fly!
Three days later, the chaos in the Duchy of Thorns, as if agreed, disappeared together, which made the forces of various countries guess wrong! The Duchy of Thorns did not become chaotic at all! These soldiers did not take advantage of the situation to rebel!
If Adam knew about the speculation of the outside forces, he would definitely scoff at it, every general under my command, every officer has a loyalty of more than 9o! The most critical dozens of people, all of whom are 1oo full loyalty, how can they rebel!
Adam always remembered what a great man said, the barrel of a gun comes out of power, and the power of the army in his hand is as great as the power of the war, and the power of the voice is as great as it is! The Duchy of Thorns seems to have scattered military power, but if someone observes it, it is not difficult to see that the real power figures in the ** team of the Duchy of Thorns are all Adam's veteran team without exception, and they are all loyal!
Without more than two years on Adam's body, and without the background of Blackstone's birth, he wants to hold military power in the Duchy of Thorns!
With the end of the Great Purge of the country, Adam also had a rare moment of rest to prepare for the fifth lord summoning.
(ps: Here is the greatest cavalry general of ancient times!A heroic character!Not a foreigner~~Guess who!)
