Rhaegar was able to win the war, which lasted for more than two years, not only because of the support of the border army under Rennes, but also because of financial support. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After all, he firmly grasped the royal capital, the most prosperous city in the empire, and the royal capital itself had accumulated wealth for hundreds of years, and the numbers were staggering.

And in order to win over the local governors, he sent one secret letter after another, promising something much higher than Leoleton's.

A steady stream of soldiers and wealth were sent to the royal capital from all over the country, which gave him enough capital to contend with Leoleton.

Although Leoleton also has the support of a big family behind him, his human and financial resources cannot be underestimated, and at the beginning, his troops were above Rennes's side army.

But as princes, the two of them have always had the royal majesty of the high, and they are not as good as Rhaegar in wooing the local governor.

As the war reached a stalemate, Leoleton's financial resources were depleted more and more rapidly, while Rhaegar received more and more support from the governor.

The balance of power between the two sides changed markedly, until the two sides were clearly not on the same order of magnitude, and the situation began to reverse.

However, with the victory of the civil war, Rhaegar also had to pay some price, which was the power he promised the local governor, including the right to pay taxes.

If there weren't enough benefits, how could these governors send a steady stream of manpower and wealth to the royal capital to help Rhaegar win the battle?

"Hey, hey, hey, His Royal Highness Rhaeggar, oh no, His Majesty Rhaegar is too considerate of us people in the region, and it is not in vain that we support him, according to the previous agreement, our Tiebi Province will have a high degree of autonomy, just formally obey the royal capital. ”

A pot-bellied middle-aged man patted his stomach as he stood on the extravagant governor's palace overlooking the silver-clad city.

The heavy snow has been falling for more than half a month, and it still hasn't stopped, but he doesn't care about this, no matter how heavy the snow is, it can't freeze him anyway.

"So the right to pay taxes is in the hands of my Lord Kamal, but I have invested so much money in His Majesty Rhaegar, how can I do it if I don't get it back?

Kamal, the governor of the Iron Wall Province, was particularly refreshed, how could a man like him, who was so greedy and shrewd, suffer?

A week earlier he had ordered his soldiers to go to various places to collect taxes, and he couldn't leave his purse empty for too long, but had to fill it up quickly.

"Lord Qiqi, as of yesterday, 100,000 silver coins have been collected, and the tax collection work is still in progress. ”

The tax collector was beside Kamal to report the situation, they were all dressed in expensive robes, and it was so cold, it was hell weather.

"What? It's only 100,000 silver coins? That's so far from the target of 500,000 silver coins, what are those guys going to eat?"

Kamal shouted in a high-pitched voice that he had emptied his family of money and sent Rhaegar two million silver coins in order to obtain the right to pay taxes.

According to his plan, he could recover the loss in two years at most, but he didn't expect the efficiency to be much slower than he expected.

"This, my lord, it is winter, the crops have not yet been harvested, and the civilians are at home with their wives and children to escape the cold winter, and there is no way to go out to work, so the tax is really limited, and if it is graced for another three months, it will definitely be collected. ”

The officer on the side said confidently that he was patrolling the city every day, and he knew the current situation better than Kamal and the tax collector.

"Three months from now? Three months from now, and I'm going to have to wait for them? What are you kidding? And they're squandering all the good time? What a bunch of slackers, you give orders that the taxes must be paid in a month, no, half a month. ”

Kamal scolded the officer, his eyes were only white silver coins, and nothing else, so he didn't care if those people could go out to work.

"Half a month is really a bit difficult, and now it's a snow disaster, we still need to allocate funds to help those victims. ”

The officer was a little embarrassed, he had received several reports of snow disasters early this morning, and he had come to the Governor's Palace this time with the intention of reporting the incident.

"What? Do you want us to allocate funds? Are these people going to rebel? They owe taxes and haven't paid them, and they still want us to allocate funds? This is really hateful, don't give them some color to see, I really think I'm a bully, if I don't pay taxes for half a month, hehe. ”

Kamal had a fierce face, and his brutality was as famous as greed, which sent chills down the officers even if the civilians were able to survive the harsh winter.

But there is still no way to survive Kamal's brutal exploitation?" the officer sighed softly, and had no choice but to go down to deliver orders.

"I really miss the time when His Majesty Raymond was still there, at least Governor Kamal didn't dare to act so unscrupulously, what's wrong with this world. ”

The officer looked up at the heavy snow, Tiebi Province was the gateway to the south of the royal capital, and in the distance were the lofty mountains, which also turned white at this time.

Even the most eye-catching person can only see the outline of the Taryon Mountains, which are now covered in a snow-white landscape.

Perhaps only an eagle in the clouds could see the movement on the mountains, and could see a long dragon winding towards the royal capital.

"Be quick, don't fall behind, everyone keep up, hold on, we have entered the scope of the Tiebi Province, at most a week, we can reach the royal capital, victory is at hand, we must persevere, survive this difficulty...... Be careful, it'll be empty over there, grab my hand!"

As a cavalry general, Kluff led his horse with great difficulty, encouraging his soldiers as he walked knee-deep in the snow.

Soon he saw that a soldier next to him accidentally stepped on the air, and immediately rushed over and dragged the soldier to him, and the snow fell down, startling the birds in the forest.

"It's dangerous, I almost died, thank you, General Crouff, thanks to you, I was able to get my life back. ”

After the young soldier was pulled back by Kruff, he remembered the scene just now and immediately thanked Kruff.

"What did you just call me?" Crouff was stunned, the key point he cared about was somewhere else.

"General Crouff, what's wrong General, you look a little weird. The young soldier asked with concern.

After all, Kluff was his savior, and I thought Kluff would scold him, but I didn't expect his expression to be so weird.

"General Crouff, you actually call me General Crouff? Hehe, boy, you call me again. Crouff was ecstatic.

"Kruff will ......" The young soldier continued to call, although he couldn't understand what Crouff was thinking.

"Crouff, what are you still rubbing over there, why don't you come over quickly!" Lancelot scolded him from afar.

"General, I'll come right here!" Crouff pricked up his ears and handed his horse to the soldier to lead him, and he sped over.

He is only a deputy regiment commander now, and he is not qualified to be called a general, but if he can perform well in this surprise attack on the royal capital.

Hehe, then he's the real General Crouff!
