The panic didn't last long, and when it was time to eat, they quickly enjoyed the treatment they deserved to match their status.

Two fist-sized potatoes per person, a spoonful of vegetable soup. That's not enough food for one person.

Pregnant women and children were treated better, with the addition of a slice of brown bread and small pieces of dried fish, and a few oil flowers floating on top of the vegetable soup.

With such an obvious difference in treatment, smart people can know at a glance that this is a deliberate effort to not let them eat enough.

The real serfs did not react, starvation had long been the norm. I haven't eaten a few full meals since I was a child, which makes Mike and Hatcher and other clergy mixed in.

Although he is at the bottom of the Holy See, he is a member of the ruling class after all, and his parents are all members of the Holy See, so it is still possible to fill his stomach.

Mike and Hatcher are okay, because they are illegitimate children, they have not been taken seriously since they were children, and the potato and vegetable soup can be eaten very deliciously.

On the contrary, some clergy from better families looked at the food in their hands and were at a loss for a while.

It's just that they don't know that it is this momentary gaffe that has revealed their identity.

In the blink of an eye, the clergy whose identities had been revealed had been pulled out for quarantine and review, which scared Mike and Harcher.

With the relationship between the Holy See and the Alpha Kingdom, ordinary serfs may not be held accountable, and they, the clergy, will definitely be liquidated.

As they expected, there were soon more wooden poles in the camp, and on them hung these unlucky bastards who had revealed their identities.

In fact, there is no need for testing, and most of the disguised clergy can be detected from their faces alone.

Unless the low-level serfs are in special positions such as cooks, they are all dishes.

"Prick up your ears and give you one last chance. I took the initiative to confess my identity, and if anyone concealed it and didn't report it, a few of them would end up!

From now on, the barracks will supervise each other, and any abnormalities must be reported immediately.

To report a dangerous person, the food standard provides a grade and an additional three pounds of meat are rewarded.

The first to report is directly promoted to the head of the house, who is responsible for managing the day-to-day affairs of the barracks.

Those who know and conceal it and do not report it - even sit!

We found out the dangerous elements, and if no one reported them, they were reduced to slavery along with everyone in the barracks, and the daily food standard was halved. ”

The young officer pointed to the corpse on the pole and said to the crowd.

The Alpha Kingdom lacks people, but not everyone. Unstable elements are also a threat when they arrive on the ship, and they must be found out in advance.

It's too much time to screen on your own, and the best option is to encourage these people to report each other.

Unless you have received professional training, no matter how you disguise yourself, all kinds of small details in your life will still reveal your identity.

After listening to the young officer's lecture, Mike and Hatcher, who were already flustered, suddenly became conspicuous bags.

Mike, who was greeted by everyone's strange eyes and realized that something was wrong, hurriedly shouted, "Let's confess!" ”

After speaking, he directly dragged Hatcher to the young officer and honestly explained his identity.

"If you have passed, settle down in the camp in the future and return to your place!"

After registering the basic information, the young officer waved his hand and said.

This is undoubtedly for the rest of the undercover to see, as well as to build credibility in the camp.

"Confession and leniency" have been achieved, then the reward for reporting will naturally be able to be fulfilled.

As the parties, Mike and Hatcher, who took the initiative to explain the problem, are already traitors to a group of hidden papal personnel.

Even if there was a conspiracy, no one dared to look for them. Because of their status, including the serfs in the same barracks, in order not to be implicated, they will also take the initiative to alienate them.

Sure enough, seeing that the two were not held accountable after confessing, a few more people came out one after another to take the initiative to confess.

The good luck ended after the seventh person, because he jumped out and reported it.

No matter how foolish the people are educated, hatred will eventually exist. A serf, seeing that his enemy was also about to come forward to confess, hurriedly jumped out to report it.

There were no surprises, as the reaction was a step slower. The body of the unlucky priest was hung directly on the pole.

With such a negative example, the next inventory operation will be much smoother.

In addition to the people of the Holy See, there are also merchants, mercenaries, cultists, and even spies planted by other big forces.

There is no doubt that these unstable elements have been detained.

Serfs and freemen who were confirmed to have no problems with their identities were checked and then loaded on ships and left. The whole process is done in one go, and it is obviously experienced.

With the sound of the ship's departure whistle, the bustling port of Cannotton soon fell into a dead silence.

However, this was only the beginning, and with the actions of the Alpha Kingdom army, all the places they passed through turned into a dead silence.

In addition to the plundering of the population, all goods worth more than the cost of shipping were packed back.

Perhaps because it felt that it was not efficient to do it alone, the royal government, which got the news, immediately held friendly consultations with the high-level leaders of the three countries in the Central and Continent, and after paying a certain price, there were three more robbers to help.

As for the Principality of Moxi, the current labor force is also very short, and they are busy sending it to their own homes at the moment, so they naturally don't need to open their mouths.

Because of the geographical location, the population they plundered had to travel through the Alpha Kingdom on foot to be able to send people back.

The relationship between the two countries is in the honeymoon period, and it is naturally not a problem to borrow money. However, the long journey still delayed their speed of grabbing people.

It's not that there are few people who grab it, but that there are few people who can reach the Duchy of Moxi safely. Many of the looted migrants fell halfway because of the long distance.

……

The Bright Holy Mountain, the unscrupulous robbery action of the Five Nations Alliance, completely angered Pius VII.

I thought I was just here to fight the autumn breeze, but I never thought that these guys would not even let go of leek roots.

If measures are not taken to allow this behavior to continue, the foundations of the Holy See will be shaken.

"Is the news confirmed?"

Pius VII asked calmly.

There is no way, the content of the intelligence is too amazing. In just over a month, more than 300,000 people were sent away by packing boats.

And this is just the beginning, if the five-nation alliance grabs people at all costs, only capacity will be left to restrict them.

Although the continent of Aslant is in the feudal era, with the blessing of magic technology, the speed of maritime development is not slow.

Warships have entered the era of 3,000 tons, and merchant ships of 5,000 or 6,000 tons can be built. In the Falcon Kingdom, where the navigation industry is developed, people have even begun to dump 10,000-ton giant ships.

With the strength of the five-nation alliance, it is not a problem at all to gather hundreds of thousands of tons of merchant ships. If it weren't for the other loot, I'm afraid it would have been possible to send three million people away in a month.

Of course, these are only extreme theoretical figures. In terms of specific operation, such a game will definitely kill and hurt a lot.

Although serfs have no human rights, the number of deaths is too great, and the international spit stars can drown people.

"Your Majesty, how dare we talk nonsense about such a thing!

In the places occupied by the Five-Power Alliance, many villages, towns, and cities have become no man's land. Judging from the whereabouts of population changes, the final destination is the port.

And our spies in the Near East have also witnessed a large number of serfs landing in the Crescent Harbor.

The figure of 300,000 is just our estimate. How many people the enemy has taken away will not be able to be counted for a while! ”

Ulise replied with a serious face.

He didn't want to know anything about this bad news. But there is no way, as an intelligence chief, it is impossible not to report the news after receiving it.

"Is there any evidence?"

Pius VII asked with concern.

Taking action to stop is a must!

If conditions permitted, he was eager to send troops immediately. However, the battle ahead not only buried their main force, but also the confidence to win.

Even the Holy See before the tiger skin was punctured, the military strength on paper was slightly inferior to the five-nation alliance, needless to say now.

The threat of force not only does not deter the enemy, but may make the enemy generals more and more excited.

Whether you want to admit it or not, in the eyes of the outside world: the army of the Holy See is now about equal to war exploits!

In particular, the improvised cannon fodder units often have the picture of an army being chased and cut by a regiment of the enemy.

The morale of the army is so mysterious, when everyone thinks that the combat effectiveness of the army of the Holy See is broken, the army of any country will shout with excitement when they meet them.

"All of the above information has been recorded by our people with a Shadow Stone!"

Ulise replied.

In fact, he had already received these messages. The reason for delaying the report until now is to collect evidence.

In the Holy See, efficiency is not the most important thing, the key is to get the details in place.

If you receive a message and don't have any evidence in hand, report it immediately. Being scolded is small, and it will be labeled as incompetent.

"With the evidence in our hands, immediately report the matter to the meeting of the Terran Alliance, and propose that the Alliance impose sanctions on the Five-Power Alliance!"

Pius VII immediately made a decision.

Plundering the population is clearly not in line with mainstream values. This is much more serious than robbery.

If it were at the peak of the Holy See, such a proposal for sanctions, it would have passed 100 percent.

At this point, it's hard to say.

After all, the Alpha Kingdom itself is one of the Big Three of the Alliance, and with the seats in the hands of the four accomplices, the votes already account for more than three-thirds of the Alliance's parliament.

According to the rules, sanctions proposals must be supported by at least two-thirds of the votes before they can be passed.

The current five-nation alliance only needs to co-opt one or two small countries at random to be able to veto the proposal.

Pius VII did not expect the proposal to pass from the beginning, after all, the armies of all countries are not clean, and if the proposal is passed, it will undoubtedly tie his hands and feet.

What's more, it is an intersessional period at the moment, and even if there is a vote, it will have to wait for the representatives of various countries to gather. The G5 only needs to delay the meeting to make the proposal come to naught.

The main reason for going to the alliance to make trouble is to make things bigger and to force the five-nation alliance to rein in its behavior with the help of international public opinion pressure.

"Yes, Your Majesty!

We immediately let this news spread all over the continent and let everyone see the ugly face of the five-nation alliance! ”

Bishop Asprilla was assured by his understanding.

……

The Holy See, which broke out with all its might, still has energy. In just three days, the major metropolises of the Terran race learned about the atrocities of the Five Nations Alliance in the Papal States.

Unfortunately, the plan did not change quickly, and Pius VII overestimated his influence on the mainland. The first reaction of the high-level leaders of various countries who received the news was - suspicion!

The teleportation magic array can transmit messages, but it can't send out the photo stone that records the "incriminating evidence".

Without seeing the evidence, it is naturally impossible to gain everyone's approval based on the words of the Holy See alone.

Even though some people knew that it was impossible for the Holy See to lie about such a thing, after weighing the pros and cons repeatedly, they chose to pretend not to believe it.

Frankish Empire, Imperial Palace.

After Charles III glanced at the official document in his hand, he casually threw it aside, and complained with disdain:

"Pius VII, or think of himself as the Pope?

If you want to give orders to the outside world, you don't want to see if they are worthy now! ”

Years of habits are not something that can be changed in a while. The diplomatic note sent by the Holy See continued in the same tone as before.

An ordinary diplomatic protest note, when it came to the eyes of Charles III, who was unhappy with them, was interpreted with colored glasses, and it became an order.

With the relationship between the Frankish Empire and the Holy See, even normal diplomacy did not welcome each other, let alone call the shots.

Striving for "international sympathy" can only fool the people at the bottom. The top leaders of various countries have long not known what "sympathy" is, and sympathy for their enemies does not exist.

"Your Majesty, we can pretend not to see the diplomatic note sent by the Holy See, and simply ignore it.

The behavior of the Five Nations Alliance in the Papal States is indeed somewhat out of line, but it also has merit.

We and the Holy See are already fighting to the death, and any act of weakening the Holy See should be supported by the Empire.

On this issue, the interests of the Empire and the Alpha Kingdom and the Iliba Kingdom are actually the same, and they can completely endorse each other politically! ”

The answer of the Prime Minister, Duke Bergson, made everyone's eyes shine. Since the Alpha Kingdom can rob people in the Papal States, they can naturally follow suit.

Not only the Alpha Kingdom and the Duchy of Moxi are now seriously lacking in labor, but also the Frankish Empire and the Kingdom of Iliba need a large number of people to fill their new lands.

At the normal pace of development, it will take at least a few decades for the new land to be developed.

Grabbing people from the Papal States now will undoubtedly speed up development considerably.

Things that can not only fight the enemy, but also strengthen themselves, everyone has no reason to refuse!

"That's it, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is responsible for taking the lead in liaising with the Kingdom of Ibiris and the Kingdom of Alpha, which is regarded as wiping the ass of Caesar IV.

Send the order to the army at the front to rescue the innocent people oppressed by the Holy See as much as possible!

Rescued serfs and slaves, as long as they are willing to settle in the empire, can be directly granted the status of free people. ”

Charles III ordered without changing his face.

If the three major powers work together to rob people and carry out political endorsements together, then the evil can only be the Holy See.

"Raiding the population"?

No, this is rescuing the oppressed populace of the Holy See!

As for the granting of freeman status, on the one hand, there is a need for political propaganda; On the other hand, the inefficient mode of production of feudal serfs could no longer meet the needs of the Frankish Empire.

The mainland's largest power is not only strong militarily. In terms of economic development, the Frankish Empire was also at the forefront of the mainland.

Perhaps because of the realization that freedmen can create more wealth, the proportion of freedmen in the Frankish Empire has been rising in recent decades.

Some aristocrats engaged in handicrafts, in order to improve production efficiency and reduce production costs, even took the initiative to release serfs and turned them into workers.

In public opinion, there were also calls for the abolition of serfdom. It's just because of the resistance of the traditional agricultural aristocracy that it has not become the mainstream.

As a young king, Charles III, who was deeply affected by the new ideas, was a supporter of the abolition of slavery.

Although there was no clamor for the abolition of serfdom, after the succession to the throne, a bill prohibiting the conversion of freemen into serfdom was promulgated.

In order to promote the development of the cause of abolition, the royal family released a number of serfs as freemen every year.

Now there was an opportunity to further increase the proportion of freemen and lay the foundation for the complete abolition of serfdom, and Charles III would not let it go.

……

Pandora's box is opened, and sin can no longer be contained.

First, the Five Nations Alliance plundered the population in the Papal States, and then the Franks joined in, and before the Holy See could react, the Kingdom of Ibby also joined the war of robbery.

The melon-eating masses from all over the world, who were originally watching the farce, instantly realized that something was wrong.

In the process of fighting against foreign races, the three great powers have all acquired large tracts of land, and now the three families are working together to grab people, obviously to develop these lands.

Originally, the strength of the three giants had thrown off a large part of the countries, and if they were allowed to develop new territories, this gap would further widen.

Knowing that the balance within the human race has been broken, everyone still doesn't know what to do.

Whether it is using political means or economic means, when facing the three giants joining forces, they are asking for their own hardships.

In line with the principle that making a sum of money is a sum of money, the armies of various countries participating in the "zero yuan purchase" activity in the Papal States have also joined the capture competition one after another.

You don't need so much labor at home, so sell people to those who need them. Perhaps these practices are suspected of being an enemy, but they are better than nothing at all.

With the end of more and more countries, the Holy See, which lifted a stone and shot itself in the foot, directly became the laughing stock of the year.
