Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 577: Disarmament recommendations
Chapter 577 Disarmament Recommendations
Blue sky, sunny beach.
Lorist is lying comfortably under the shade tent built of gray fine linen and seeing his wife and children playing on the beach. This is life. Lorist took a sigh of relief and tried to forget all the unhappiness and troubles encountered in Imperial Capital.
Duke Kenmays came up with a small wooden barrel. The small wooden barrel contained ice cubes made by the saltpeter cooling method. Two bottles of fruit wine were placed in the ice cubes. After sitting beside Lorist, Duke Kenmays took out two glass wine glasses from the small wooden barrel, and then opened a bottle of fruit wine. The amber fruit wine is clear and translucent, exuding a charming fragrance in the transparent glass.
I handed a cup to Lorist, and Duke Kenmays garnished the wine in the glass with a sip, admiring it: "I don't know why there are so many wonderful ideas in your mind that you can make ice cubes in such a hot summer Come. Drinking a glass of cold fruit wine in such weather is an unparalleled enjoyment ... "
Lorist didn't say anything, just drank the fruit wine in the glass, then poured half a glass for himself, found two ice cubes from the small wooden barrel and threw them into the glass.
It is now in early September. After Imperial Capital participated in the Second Highness's ascension ceremony, some disputes with Second Highness led to the celebration party in the evening. So Lorist, Kenmays, Felim, Shaheen and other three Grand Duke(s) left Imperial Capital early the next morning with Imperial Guard, without saying goodbye. Returned to Silowas Islands and merged with my family members.
This is the white beach in front of Wanghai Manor. Compared with the white sand beach of Kenmays Family, this beach is much smaller, but it is enough for four Grand Duke(s) family members to play in the water. Looking at the crowds on the beach, Duke Kenmays sighed deeply. He spent a huge amount of money on the platinum beach of his family Territory, and built it into the summer resort of the whole kingdom, ready to welcome every summer Come to a lot of kingdoms Aristocrat(s) and their families to play. Then Second Highness came, and persuaded the kingdom Aristocrat(s) to send troops to fight Trade Union. As a result, three years of **** battles, all kingdoms Aristocrat(s) suffered heavy casualties, no longer thought about playing on the platinum beach to escape the heat, everyone was at home licking wounds ...
"It's okay, next year you will invite those Aristocrat(s) to play on the Platinum Beach. already is five years old, and you should forget about it. Now Empire is reviving. It should not be fighting again in these years. Everyone has money in their pockets. I will go to play with you naturally. "Seeing Duke Kenmays staring at the beach bun, Lorist certainly understood what he was thinking.
"Ah, it's not ..." Duke Kenmays came back to me: "I don't worry about this, what I just thought was what your Majesty's disarmament proposal meant at the dinner party that day?"
After the ceremony, Second Highness held a grand welcoming banquet in Imperial Palace to welcome all Empire Aristocrat(s) and their families who came to the ceremony. Although some unsatisfactory things happened before the ceremony, with the efforts of Second Highness, today's ceremony can be said to be a complete success. The satisfied Second Highness announced its own policy for the next three years at the celebration banquet, which is nothing more than focusing on the internal affairs and people's livelihood, increasing the financial revenue of Empire, enriching the national treasury, encouraging the business to vigorously develop mineral resources, and streamlining administration ...
The focus is on streamlining and simplifying administration. Second Highness believes that Empire is now reviving, so he is preparing to restore the former Empire three Legion system, that is, the Royal Guard Legion guards Imperial Capital, White Lion Legion expeditions, and the violent wind Legion on the Qing Dynasty mountain thieves. At the same time, in the provinces directly under the jurisdiction of Imperial Family, a garrison was established to suppress the place. In addition, Second Highness will also prepare to establish the Royal Knight(s) group again, recruit relatives and children of the Kingdom Aristocrat(s) to become the Royal Knight(s) to play for Krissen Imperial Family and so on ...
These are actually Krissen Imperial Family old systems, and everyone doesn't care. Just like the Royal Guard Legion, White Lion Legion, Gale Legion is the former Krissen's Empire three standing Legion, under the jurisdiction of Imperial Family, as long as Second Highness can afford to build a few more Legion, everyone has nothing to say. As for the Royal Knight(s) group, it is a way for the children of Empire Aristocrat(s) who cannot inherit the title and Territory. Sometimes in peace, to avoid disputes, these children cannot even join the armed forces of their own family, so as not to cause confusion and threat to the family's heirs. Like the second uncle who died on the battlefield of Lorist already, he was the deputy Captain of the former Krissen Empire Royal Knight(s) regiment.
However, what all Empire Aristocrat(s) did not expect is that after talking about the standing military system of Empire, Second Highness proposed a disarmament proposal to the Empire Aristocrat(s) present here. He said that the revival of Empire and peace can be expected, and Territory Aristocrat(s) of Empire should not continue. To expand our family armed forces, we should invest limited money in the development of Territory. Therefore, he suggested that the Territory Aristocrat(s) of Empire should streamline their family armed forces and discuss the establishment of a family armed forces system that everyone follows to limit the establishment of all Territory Aristocrat(s) family armed forces.
Second Highness believes that a Empire Baron can build two or three hundred-person teams as the family armed forces, Viscount can have five hundred people, Count can establish a thousand-person family armed forces, and Empire Marquis has a maximum of three thousand horses. As for Territory Duke(s), a family armed forces corps or a small-scale family armed forces Legion can be formed. For example, we can reduce the large establishment of Legion, which has 45,000 people, to four small establishments of 6,000 people, plus a thousand people team in charge of logistics. In this way, the total number of Legion is only about 25,000. .
Second Highness emphasizes that this is for the sake of Empire Aristocrat(s)'s wallets. After all, supporting a large-scale family armed forces in Taiping years is a lot of expense and burden for any Empire Aristocrat(s). Second Highness believes that reducing the expenditure on armaments will help Empire Aristocrat(s) to better build Territory and enjoy a better life. As for the bandits and bandits who are entangled in various places, Empire will make a strong clearance after the formation of Legion, without the need for Territory Aristocrat(s) to bear the responsibility of the bandits.
Second Highness said that the three years of Falik Plains blood battles caused almost all Empire Territory Aristocrat(s) casualties, so reducing the arms expenditure of Territory Aristocrat(s) is the compensation given by Empire. In the future, the foreign battles will be completely supported by the three branches of Empire. Legion is always in charge. The family armed forces of Territory Aristocrat(s) is responsible for defending their respective family Territory. Unless it is the threat of Empire encountering the country, Second Highness will not call the family armed forces of Territory Aristocrat(s) to the battlefield.
As for the dispute between Territory Aristocrat(s), Second Highness stated that he did not want to see such a Aristocrat(s) Territory war happen. If there is a contradiction, he can submit it to the Aristocrat(s) court for ruling. After all, launching a Territory war is worthless for everyone. Regardless of winning or losing, the three standing Legions of Empire are likely to get involved in such a Aristocrat(s) Territory war and calm down the wait for the Aristocrat(s) court's ruling on this Territory war.
All the Aristocrat(s)s who attended the celebration party focused on the three Grand Duke(s)s: Lorist, Grand Duke Fisablen and Kenmays, Felim and Shaheen. The well-known fact is that the strength of Norton Family armed forces surpasses the Empire armed forces commanded by Second Highness. Even if Second Highness has completed the Empire three standing Legion, it is difficult to compete with Norton Family armed forces. If you add the armed forces Legion of the three Grand Duke(s) families of the Northern Land four alliances, it is enough to sweep the entire Empire, even if Second Highness plus Fisablen Family, and all other Empire Territory Aristocrat(s) family armed forces, I am afraid that it cannot resist the Northern Land four alliances The front of the coalition of the family armed forces.
Obviously, Second Highness suddenly throws out this disarmament proposal at this moment, targeting the Northern Land four alliances headed by Norton Family. For other Empire Territory Aristocrat(s), this disarmament proposal of Second Highness does not matter to them, even if it is the three of Handela Grand Duke(s), Grand Duke Forando, and Sabaji Grand Duke(s), they agree with the disarmament proposal of Second Highness. As Second Highness said, this disarmament proposal does reduce their armament burden without keeping the full armed forces Legion family. In the future, even if they received a call order from Second Highness, they would not have to send so many people to help.
Maybe for the sake of passing Grand Duke Fisablen, Grand Duke Fisablen stood up: "Your Majesty, Fisablen Family firmly supports His Majesty's disarmament proposal. I am willing to return the border guard Legion to the monarchy and re-include it under the command of His Majesty."
Old slippery! At this moment I don't know how many Empire Aristocrat(s) scolded in my heart. As long as people with a little mind understand that the old guy Grand Duke Fisablen is cheap and well behaved. The border guard Legion, although not the three standing Legion of Empire, is also a well-known emperor regiment armed forces. It was originally formed to deal with the looting of the savage tribe on the northeast prairie to the Empire border area. The correct definition of the border guard Legion is a local armed forces force.
Only when dealing with the scourge of the Caoman tribe captive, the border guard Legion fell into the hands of Fisablen Family and became Fisablen Family armed forces. At present, the border guards Legion have the first and second Legions, with nearly 80,000 troops, and are the main force of Fisablen Family armed forces. Lorist formed the family armed forces Hunting Cavalry Legion, which was deployed in Muyeyuan Province, mainly to prevent and deal with border guards Legion.
Grand Duke Fisablen said that the border defense rangeback Legion will be returned to the imperial system. That is to say, according to the former Krissen's Empire compilation, the border defense range Legion has 45,000 troops. It belongs to the Empire place armed forces, and its military and equipment are from the east Northern Land area. Responsible for several provinces, not armed forces of Fisablen Family. So Grand Duke Fisablen said nicely and was reintroduced under the command of Second Highness, but in fact the entire Legion was still in the hands of Grand Duke Fisablen.
The idea of the old guy is very beautiful. Pull out a border defense rider Legion and change it to Fisablen Family armed forces Legion, just rename it. In fact, both Legion are still under the control of Fisablen Family. And in this way, Fisablen Family only pays the cost of an Legion armament, while the cost of border guards Legion is shared to the locality, which will greatly reduce the burden on the family and provide more military resources to the family's defense Legion and Israel. The Mercenary mode was established to prepare Legion, which is mainly based on grass riding.
Second Highness smiled and nodded: "Grand Duke Fisablen is loyal to the country. Do n’t forget it. It ’s worthy of regret. So, I remember that the military and equipment costs of the border guard Legion were from Muyeyuan Province, Windbury Province and the three provinces of the southern province. The share. Then in accordance with the previous example, Grand Duke(s) will be responsible for the annual budget of the entire border defense Legion, and obtain funds from these three provinces in proportion to the previous days.
This is eye drops for the four alliances of Northern Land! At that time, Muyeyuan Province, Windbury Province, and the southern provinces were all the hardest hit areas for Caoman captives. For this reason, the three provinces proposed to set up a border defense ranger Legion to prevent the Caoman tribe's raids. The military expenses were shared by the three provinces. However, with the border guards Legion falling under the control of Fisablen Family, Eastwild provinces were opened up, and the southern provinces and Windbury Province already were free of the threat of savage horse riding. However, with the border guards Legion becoming Fisablen Family's armed forces Legion, this agreement on the apportionment of military expenses has long since been abolished.
The southern province already has become the Territory of the Felim family, and Windbury Province and Muyeyuan Province have also become the governing Territory of Norton Family. In this meeting, Second Highness carried the banner of returning to imperialism and let the three provinces re-share the military expenditures of the border defense ranger Legion. It is clearly the disgusting Northern Land four alliances, using their own money to cultivate opponents' armed forces. So righteous, it's really hard for the thoughts spent by Second Highness.
Felim Duke(s) slammed the gold cup on the table with a bang, and stood up angrily: "This is impossible! The Legion was formed to deal with the brutal riders of the grass. Is there any threat to the tribe? The border guards Legion have become the Fisablen Family family armed forces. Why do we pay for it?
Lorist sighed and stood up to stop the anger of Felim Duke(s): "The southern province was not the family Territory of Felim Duke(s), so it is normal to share the cost of arms, but now the southern province already has become the family Territory of Felim Grand Duke(s), and then It is not appropriate to share the military expenditures of the border guards Legion to the southern provinces. So, Your Majesty, Grand Duke Fisablen, we Norton Family are willing to take over the arms costs of the border guards Legion to ensure that the border guards Legion lack military expenditures ... "
Second Highness overjoyed: "The brothers Locke understand the matter and are willing to contribute to the country."
Grand Duke Fisablen is also very happy: "Can Norton Grand Duke(s) be serious? In front of so many Empire Aristocrat(s)s, you ca n’t regret what you say ..."
"Of course, talk and talk." Lorist nodded: "In addition to the military and daily expenses, Norton Family is willing to re-equip the border guards Legion. However, this requires pulling the border guards Legion to our Norton Family Territory. Reorganize. And re-train according to the characteristics of the equipment. Everyone knows that our Norton Family armed forces is unmatched. We are willing to impart our training experience and combat experience to the border defense ranger Legion without any reservation. It only takes half a year and is guaranteed to be returned to His Majesty. An elite frontier rider Legion. "
The face of Grand Duke Fisablen is white all of a sudden. Pull to Norton Family for half a year of training and reorganization. Can the side anti-rogue Legion still listen to its own, ensuring that even people and horses become a part of Norton Family armed forces. The military crickets were all taken from Norton Family. Will this be followed by someone else's command? I will be foolish to send the border guard Legion to Norton Family Territory ...
Second Highness also understands this. Lorist said a few words to solve the problem that came out of it: "This is not a problem, anyway. Right, my Locke brother, you treat me What do you think of the disarmament proposal just now? Now that Empire is peaceful, you Norton Family do not need to maintain so many families armed forces. I think that Norton Family can reduce the size of four families Legion to two, and even one family armed forces Legion is enough. "
The picture is poor! Lorist shook his head: "Sir, I regret that I cannot agree with your disarmament proposal. This will affect our family's troop dispatch plan."
"Plan to send troops?" Second Highness was startled: "Where do you Norton Family want to conquer?"
"It's not a conquest. Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it at all." Lorist said, "In the next stage, we are going to open up Norton Family to Demonic Dragon Mountain Range and more northern wild plains, prepare to build a province in the northern extension, and open a new Territory for Empire. Now The family ’s four Legions will have two Legions ready to go north, and the other will be arranged in Muyeyuan Province to guard against the savage tribe, and there will be another Legion to defend Northern Land. In fact, our family ’s military strength is also very tight. Maybe we need several Grand Duke(s) families armed forces Help ... "
Lorist refers to several Grand Duke(s)s as Duke Kenmays, Felim Duke(s) and Shaheen Duke(s). This put an end to the Second Highness's attempt to force them to cut down the family armed forces.
Second Highness's complexion is blue. He believes that Lorist is totally trying to find an excuse to refuse to cut the family armed forces Legion. However, after taking a deep breath, he still reluctantly put it down: "Yes, Locke, since you are not willing to cut down the family armed forces, I will not force your will. But should you change the name of your guard Legion? He and my Royal Guard Legion have the same name. Someone may gossip ... "
Lorist smiled: "Okay, Your Majesty, in accordance with your wishes, from now on our family's Legion will be renamed Tiewei Legion."
For Lorist, it doesn't matter what Legion is called. Since Second Highness avoids the name of Guard Legion, it is better to change the name of Guard to Iron Guard, which is simple and easy to remember. What I didn't expect was that the name of the Iron Guard Legion had just been spoken, Second Highness became angry, he kicked the desk case in front of him, turned around and left the hall, and the celebration party broke up.
While Imperial Palace is out, Lorist is still inexplicable, and I feel a little angry. Second Highness Does this show me something? What a reason!
Duke Kenmays laughed and laughed: "Locke, you are absolutely terrible. If you knew you were renamed to Tiewei Legion, it would be better to rename it. This is a face-to-face slap in the face ..."
"No, I haven't figured out why I can't call it Tiewei Legion?"
"Haha, did you forget? At that time, Madras Grand Duke formed an iron guard Legion, eight thousand men defended Kebo City, the father of Second Highness, the first king Prince Andinac took the entire Royal Guard Legion 60,000 horses attacked six It was impossible to attack for more than a month, but lost most of the Centaur and only 20,000 remnants were left. The situation in Empire changed greatly, resulting in the last fragmentation. You said that the name was changed to Tiewei Legion, which is not a snoring face. Is it clear that it is against his Royal Guard Legion ... "
Lorist is dumb, he is careless, but Second Highness must be when he intentionally, now the gap between the two already is getting deeper and deeper. However, Lorist did not intend to explain, and left Imperial Capital early the next morning.
Comfortably lying on the sand, Lorist said: "Your Majesty's disarmament proposal was actually giving us a cover. He didn't care if we would not cut down the family armed forces. It is important to determine the compilation of armed forces Legion for each family. etc. After clarifying the small establishment of this family armed forces, once there is something to expand our army, he can accuse us of expanding the soldiers for mischief. If you do not expand the soldiers, you can only ask him for help. At that time, he can let the three Empire standing Legion intervene In the interior of our family Territory ... I guess so.
Duke Kenmays wiped out the fruit wine in the glass: "Your Majesty is very serious now."
"Of course ..." Lorist nodded: "There is no threat outside, Your Majesty is now focusing on our four alliances. Perhaps for him, our four alliances are more threatening than that Trade Union. So we four The family of the family armed forces Legion cannot be reduced, and the combat effectiveness must be maintained from time to time in order to ensure the continuation of our family and the safety of Territory. "
