406.Chapter 406: It's Impossible
In this way, King Henry collapsed on his throne, remembering the eventful years before him and closing his eyes and waiting for death. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt the same time, Hereford and his son began to try to suppress the chaos in Wroclaw.
After a short period of fear and flight, the whole of Wroclaw fell into chaos, and the gangsters, gangsters, and so on became active. These fellows were very happy to prepare to take advantage of the fire - even though the vast majority of the wealthy people in Wroclaw had fled and left, and the aforementioned city was nearly empty -
Of course, this is only "close to emptiness", and although the vast majority of the rich have run away, there are still a very small number of rich people who are either not smart enough to have unrealistic fantasies about King Henry, or for various reasons simply cannot run......
In addition to this very small number of wealthy people, Wroclaw also has a large number of ordinary people.
These ordinary people do not have enough money, nor enough intelligence and information to analyze the current situation, let alone enough guts and courage to drive them to leave their hometown, where they have lived for a long time.
These people are good targets for those hooligans, ruffians, and scoundrels. Those hooligans who don't want good things in their brains and don't know if they turn fast, or if they are naturally suited to think about these things, start to act. Thus, Wroclaw fell into chaos.
This made William much dissatisfied. As is customary, those bastards are acting under the guise of welcoming the king, and even talking about simple nonsense, claiming to be Russian spies. And the money that those bastards robbed won't hand over a dime.
In this way, all the benefits are theirs, and the notoriety is borne by themselves -- where in this world does such a good thing come from? William really wants to do it!
That's it, the military plan to storm Wroclaw and collapse the regime of King Henry was thrown into the garbage. Instead, it was to enter Wroclaw as fast as possible, and then to suppress the entire city as fast as possible. Then take the place of those scum and collect the money yourself.
Of course, the regular army also loots. In this era, mercenaries washed the city, and it was customary and natural. Of course, of course, William has made the boundaries clear for them - robbery is allowed, but it cannot kill people, let alone force beep. In addition to this, the looted property was to be registered, and its value was judged by the appraisal of the quartermaster officers who accompanied the army's logistics - those who had been carefully selected from various places from among the loan sharks, banks, goldsmiths' houses, jewelry counters, and cultural relics clubs that had been recruited specifically for the purpose of "robbery".
The money is then pooled and distributed according to the head. Instead of grabbing more points, grabbing less points.
The way it is distributed is divided into four parts. Four of them went to the soldiers who robbed the money, and then distributed according to their rank and according to their allowances.
The other four became owned by the royal family of Hereford,
The remaining 20% is used as a special expense to supplement the various materials needed for the logistics of the army, to make rebates for professionals, and to apply various subsidies related to the army, the foundation.
William's military reform not only included the reform of military technology and weaponry, but also established a set of postal and military means of communication, as well as military benefits. Provide a variety of jobs for veterans and disabled soldiers, including grassroots civil servants, village officials assigned to villages, and various pro-army farms and pastures...... Foundations that help disabled veterans, blah blah...... That's going to cost 20 percent of the money.
This kind of robbery, financial distribution, is much more professional than the activities of the Middle Ages, which were all cheaper for military merchants. The money distributed by the soldiers seems to be small, but because of the fair evaluation of professionals, it will not be coaxed by the military merchants as in the Middle Ages, and they will be sold for two dates.
Yes, in that case, 10% of the money from the sale would go to the soldier himself, but the soldier himself would probably not get more than one-tenth of the money he has now.
That's it, this new way of distribution, which was also part of William's military reform...... This makes the ministers of finance in the cabinet of the Russian kingdom who once wanted to make war money unhappy. But there is nothing to be done.
In addition to money, another item of washing the city is strong beeping, which is a little more difficult...... Accumulating stress after the war, and at the same time because of the feeling that mosquitoes are all male in the barracks, it is natural to indulge, vent, and then snap.
The military has always been associated with violence, and violence has always been associated with popping. Even in William's previous life, it was not inevitable that female soldiers stationed overseas in the United States wore daggers for self-defense. Female soldiers who are discharged from the army every year because of unexpected pregnancies can circle the globe three times, once regarded the Philippines as a colony, left millions of illegitimate children, and almost turned the Philippines into the fifty-first state of the United States or something, these things can be known by a little inquiry.
Therefore, William does not have a very good way to deal with this kind of thing. He could only restrain the troops as much as possible and teach the soldiers a sense of honor. At the same time, the soldiers were restrained by regulating the mood of the soldiers by the chaplain - of course, William believed that even this would not be entirely successful...... So, in this case, using legitimate technical workers is the best choice.
Of course, even a large city like Wroclaw could never meet the needs of 50,000 beeps.
Of course, William did not pile up his 50,000-strong army under Wroclaw.
Three of the five legions were scattered throughout the Grand Duchy of Shilonsk. All the more important cities and towns were robbed by William's system.
The happiest of them were those who left Wroclaw with a good warning.
The long queue of refugees is exactly the best target for the Russian cavalry. These guys are glad they survived, only to quickly discover that they have just fallen from one trap to another.
Too long convoys, too narrow roads, too many women and possessions, too heavy carriages to run...... All this made the refugee team like a slow old cow, without the slightest ability to resist - yes, these guys brought with some minions, escorts, and even squire knights, and a very small number of mercenaries.
But in the face of the regular cavalry of the Hereford family, look at those cruising and brisk war horses, snow sabers, spears and flintlock handcuffs. They don't have much sense of resistance.
After the cavalry pushed the three-pounder cavalry cannon that was advancing with the team and aimed the guns at the men, the guys completely lost their fighting spirit.
There was no way, they were a rabble, opposite the new army of Hereford, which was known as the first army in the human world. I can't fight at all.
That's it, the convoy was completely robbed. The boxes that the rich and noble had brought from their homes, specially distributed, packed, and filled with all kinds of cash, gold coins, and other valuable gadgets, were snatched by the Hereford cavalry as they were. On the contrary, a lot of effort was saved on the part of the cavalry.
This made the rich and noble families of Wroclaw want to cry without tears.
The only thing that was thankful was that their daughters were not insulted—partly because of William's repression of his New Army policies. The other part is that these guys surrendered obediently, and the cavalry suffered no losses, and easily made a fortune. In this way, the cavalry was not too embarrassed to pursue anything else.
The other Hereford troops, who had been scattered by William throughout the Grand Duchy of Shilonsk, had a similar fate. There wasn't much resistance, there weren't too many casualties, and of course there wasn't much hatred. And the attitude of the Hereford family to only rob and not kill people also made Shilonsk itself breathe a sigh of relief. In turn, in order to suppress the Shilonsk rout, that is, the mercenaries who had been defeated by Hereford's army in the previous battle, the Hereford family exerted more strength.
Such a reversal made the minds of the Silonsk locals unable to turn around, and the Shilonsk mercenaries, who were supposed to be "their own people", burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil. The Hereford army, which was supposed to be the invader, was much more disciplined. Many of the places that have been ruined by the Shilonsk rout have to be saved by the Hereford family. This also reduced the resistance of the Shilonsk natives to the Hereford family.
That's it, the place is stable very fast. Presumably, after a few more months of military control, it will be able to ......
"What can be?" At that time, William's father, King Otto, looked at William with a stunned expression. This made William lament for a moment...... Although he has been a king for a few years, his father seems to be ...... I still don't have the ability to govern at all. It's hard to know what to say.
"It is possible to send officials to move in. "Then, following the example of the Russian kingdom, the Duchy of Mystia and the Grand Duchy of Turov, the local government was reorganized and a modern system of government was established," said William. ”
"Oh. So do it. King Otto smiled happily, as if I was relieved that you would do something. It's a pleasure to shake off the shopkeeper.
This made William very depressed, and he continued to say in a muffled voice: "In addition to Shilonsk, negotiations with Archduke Dietrich of Livonia are also continuing. Presumably, after a while, Archduke Dietrich will relent. When the time comes, Livonia will also reshuffle its government according to the Russian model. It may not be possible to hand over military and executive power in one step...... However, we can keep the Archduke of Livonia for the time being, as a transition, according to the settings of the Confederation. ”
"Well, okay, let's do it. ”
"The reshuffle of the government of the Turov region is also underway. We are now halfway through the process, and it is a critical period. William continued.
“...... That, what are you going to say?" Listening to William's nonsense, King Otto was very confused for a while, and looked at William and didn't know what to say.
