The law to change the districts into provinces was implemented in the regions with the support of the government on the surface and political parties such as the National Society in the shadows. Of course, this kind of execution is also accompanied by invisible swords and shadows.

Located in Lombardy's second largest city, Brescia feels the power of this sword.

"Hello, Mayor Carlro, we are from the Investigation Section of the Ministry of the Interior, and we hope that His Excellency the Mayor will come with us."

Several members of the Home Office broke into the mayor's office and showed the mayor in front of him an arrest warrant signed by the Minister of the Interior himself.

Faced with the unkind visitors from the Ministry of the Interior, Carlo took a serious look at the signature of the arrest warrant issued, and then said with a smile. "I've heard that your new minister, Cruz, doesn't write very well, and I always thought it was nonsense. But now, it's true! ”

"Take it away."

Carlro's words left several Interior Ministries in the face of a black line, which annoyed them with their attitude of treating them as if they were nothing. However, considering the influence of this mayor of Carlo, he can only bring this back with patience.

Of course, in Brescia, the Ministry of the Interior must have done something other than take this Carroo mayor away.

"Hello, Director Fritz, we are from the Ministry of the Interior, please come with us."

"Director Reeves, our Department of the Interior, would like to ask you about the situation."

The actions of the Ministry of the Interior in Brescia, again, are just the beginning. And then this kind of thing happened all over the country, and someone from the Ministry of the Interior suddenly appeared in front of you, and then announced that you were being investigated for some reason, and then you were taken away.

For a time, the name of the Ministry of the Interior was simply thunderous and famous among the local governments. Any official will be as holy as a blank piece of paper, and there are more or less some irregularities, but this kind of behavior is tacitly accepted by everyone. And now the Ministry of the Interior's investigation that breaks everyone's tacit understanding, of course, some people will be dissatisfied.

But at this time, the fool will stop the Ministry of the Interior from doing things, because everyone knows what the Ministry of the Interior is doing at this time, isn't it just to kick out those who oppose it.

In the face of this practice of the Ministry of the Interior, many local officials have called on the Ministry of the Interior to stop this practice of taking people away, because this practice is very inhumane without informing their families.

In response to the officials' appeals, the Home Office agreed, so it left a letter to their families in the subsequent investigation.

In the face of the Ministry of the Interior's refusal to advance oil and salt, many local officials flinched, after all, this matter of resuming power is not a big deal if you think about it carefully. Isn't it just that the power is a little smaller, as long as the power is smaller, it will be smaller, maybe you can regain a larger power in the line.

And there are still many people who have this mentality to defect, so in many large regions, there are a large number of officials who have turned to Rome, after all, the lesser of these two evils, endure it and it will pass.

Although some people can endure it for a while, there are many people who can't endure it, because they are the leaders and it is extremely difficult to escape the blow of Rome. So the actions of the Ministry of the Interior, on the contrary, have deepened their ties even more.

Located on the outskirts of Naples, the Manor de Belin is famous in the local area for being home to one of the most powerful Neapolitan nobles, His Excellency the Count of Peric.

This count was very famous in the south, because as early as the time of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, his ancestors had received many rewards with the Bourbon royal family, and during the war of Italian unification, his father, the old Count Peric, judged the situation and threw himself into the Savoy dynasty, becoming one of the few original two Sicilian nobles who profited from the war of unification.

And the family of the Count of Peric has stood tall in Naples for so many years, and it is with their superb vision that they have grown bigger step by step, and now they have become one of the few great land nobles in the south. The bill to change the district to a province this time seriously violated the interests of the Count of Peric, so this time the Count of Peric became one of the leading opponents of the Campania Region. You must know that among the large landowners in southern Italy, the Count of Peric is one of the best existences. The farmland, vineyards, and olive groves under its name reach tens of thousands of hectares, and there are nearly 10,000 farmers cultivating it alone.

In addition to the land, the Count of Peric in Campania also operated several factories, for which there were two or three thousand workers. The Earl of Perwick, with his size, was a very powerful figure in the whole South.

And the law of changing the districts into provinces promulgated by Rome naturally violated his interests, so in this alliance of local forces, the Count of Peric was one of the leaders.

At a meeting of the estate, local forces from all regions gathered to discuss the policy of reorganizing Rome into a province.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current approach of the Ministry of the Interior is not to be seen as aggressive as they are now, but as far as I know, it is nothing more than posturing. Because many of the people they arrested couldn't be sentenced, they deliberately didn't send out the news, giving people infinite associations. Wait, it won't be long before some people are released. ”

The one who opened his mouth to cheer everyone on was Olivier, the former president of the Campania region. This Mr. Olivier is arguably the most devastating victim of this redistricting into a province. Because after the region was changed to a province, there was no parliament, and these district councillors could go home and eat their own.

"But we know this kind of thing, but the local government officials don't know about it, and in our Puglia region alone, there are quite a few people who have been deterred by the actions of the Ministry of the Interior and have changed their attitudes. In particular, the National Socialist Party has become a lackey of Rome, and many things cannot be hidden from those National Socialist Party, which makes it difficult for us to do! ”

The speaker was Viscount du Belle from Puglia, who was also a powerful figure in Puglia, but now faced with pressure from Rome, he was a little lacking.

In the face of Viscount Belle's words, some people were dissatisfied. "What can we do now, obediently surrender to Rome, and then count on Rome to be magnanimous and spare us men. Do you expect Rome to be left to this point? ”

This is the Viscount of Solanas in Sicily, a large landowner in Sicily, who is a bit ruthless, so the mafia in Sicily has basically done things for him. In the confrontation between the National Socialist Party and the Mafia some time ago, this Viscount Solanas suffered a lot of losses, and as a result, he encountered a bill to change the district to a province, so this is the most resolute group of people.

"How can I expect Rome's magnanimity, but we don't have much chance of winning this kind of hard top, so let's discuss a way together, why are you so explosive."

In response to Solanas's accusations, of course, Belle did not do it.

"Isn't it, you're just scared in your heart."

"I'll be afraid, you say it again."

"Smack!"

Seeing that the two were about to fight the bull, the Earl of Perwick, who was presiding over the meeting, immediately slapped the table.

"Well, I know both of you are uncomfortable. I'm not comfortable with Rome's bill, which deprives us of a lot of benefits, but this is not the time for us to engage in infighting. ”

Earl Perrick's words quieted the two of them. After all, this person's face must be sold.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Count Perrik felt a headache. These people are simply incorrigible, and at this time there is still a mood for infighting.

"Now, the most important thing for us is to be united, and everything else can be put on hold. Only by uniting us will we be qualified to resist Roman pressure, or else we will only need the mad dog of the National Socialist Party to pick us up, as we are now. ”

The Earl of Perwick, who felt much better, then said earnestly. "Then we will continue to fight Rome, and if we want to change the region into a province, if we can't meet our interests, we can't let it succeed. Until then, everyone must be consistent, and no one can escape it. ”

In the face of Perrick's words, someone immediately agreed. "Count Perwick is right, we must be united."

"Then what should we do about our damaged interests, especially the mad dog of the National Socialist Party, if you want to know the virtues of the National Socialist Party, everyone will not be unclear, right?" Some people put forward their own opinions.

Faced with this question, the Earl of Berwick replied. "The national community is indeed a problem, so find something for them to do. Solanas, you find some mafia to come back and make a trick on the national community, so that they don't have time to focus on us. ”

Faced with Count Perric's words, Solanas replied. "It's not a big problem, but now if you dare to come back and fight the mafia, the asking price will be much higher."

"Give it to them, and we can all raise the money at will. I'll give a quarter, and you will get the rest. ”

In the face of Count Perwick's words, the others also knew that the cost of this kind of thing could not be paid by one person, so you and I will pay something, and soon raised enough money.

After that, the negotiation was basically to cheer each other on, and when the negotiation was over, everyone left in their respective cars.

After Solanas boarded the car, he looked at the beautiful manor in front of him through the window, and with a mocking expression, he turned to a man in black sitting opposite him. "This generation of Earl Perwick is really a waste, and he doesn't dare to make any moves at this time. I only know that there is a strong thing called unity, and it is really a joke to expect a group of people who are hungry for profit to unite. ”

"That's why we're approaching Your Excellency, Viscount Solanas, and I'm sure you must have a different opinion."

Facing the words of the man in black, Viscount Solanas replied with a proud face. "Of course, as long as you can guarantee the first shipment of five thousand rifles and ammunition to Catania, then I can show you what I'm capable of. A riot that swept through Sicily was enough for the young king to think clearly. What can be done with these people? ”

To the arrogant viscount, the man in black immediately replied. "Of course there is no problem, a thousand rifles will be shipped next Friday, and I will give you the check for a million francs you said on the day of the riot."

"I really look down on you Frenchmen, it's not pleasant at all. By car, Dole. ”

As for the manor, the Earl of Peric watched the people of other local powers leave, and at this time the butler quietly came to him. "Count, the French have come to pay a visit again."

"These Frenchmen are still not giving up, I know."

The Earl of Peric replied quietly.
