Power and Empire Chapter 106: Ambition of Kyoto
Looking at the target soil **** halfway down by the bomb a thousand meters away, everyone was stupid, even the brave veterans were in a daze,
"This is the power of Thor?" The facts in front of them let the Satsuma grenadiers know that they will become an unprecedented powerful unit. Thinking of the bright bounty, everyone looked at hundreds of doors before them. The unfolding Thor's eyes became hot like flames, and an unknown heart palpitations were in everyone's hearts,
"This thing is simply the legendary punishment! With such a weapon, what enemy is there to make us fear!"
Everyone thinks this way. In front of this terrifying weapon, let alone charge, it’s good to be able to keep the formation and not to flee. Thinking that such a weapon is about to be delivered to one’s own hands, oneself will become The Samor’s army has the strongest offensive power and has the most rewards. All the Samor’s grenadiers feel excited, especially the veteran Sack who was in charge of the test fire just now. It’s even harder to hide his joy. The thunder **** of the test shot glowed, and his mouth kept whispering.
"Grandma's, this time it is finally right!"
"Everyone can see it! This is your new weapon. Do you want your own land? Do you want the highest bounty? Do you want to kill the infinite glory of the knight? Train this thing, and There is nothing you can't get!"
Saronte excitedly stood up and taught that the intended commander of the grenadier regiment this time is the captain of the guard, Salon. As the highest-level military attache of the army headquarters, it is Salon who can personally command a powerful attacking force. Dreaming, Fatty handing over the Grenadier Regiment to Salon is also a consideration for the concentrated use of the Legion’s Thor Cannon
Using the gap of the grenadier training, Fatty made adjustments to the troops directly under the regiment headquarters. Unlike the heavy infantry configuration of the other three main battle banner regiments, most of the army headquarters led by Fatty himself are light infantry. There are also 4,000 logistics units. Although there are 12,000 people, the real combat personnel are only 3,000 light cavalry and 5,000 mountain light infantry.
In order to meet the needs of the new grenadier regiment, the headquarters of the legion adjusted the division of services. From the original 3,000-person light cavalry regiment, 1,000 light cavalry was assigned to the grenadier regiment, responsible for the guards of the grenadier regiment, four thousand The logistics team is all assigned to the grenadier regiment. With such a large number of transfers, it can be seen that the fat man attaches importance to the grenadier regiment
The time came in mid-July, and the harvest season was in full swing. The four prefectures of Satsuma had more than 300,000 soldiers and more than 300,000 farmers, all of them were involved in harvesting wheat, and the fat man also pretended to use his long-handled sickle. After swaying a few times in the field, looking at the heavy ears of wheat on the waist-cut wheat stalks, there was a somewhat contented smile on his white, round face.
The grains handed in from all over the country are being shipped to Riwading one after another. On the commercial roads in the four counties of Samoa, a carriage full of wheat can be seen at any time. The warm harvest scene almost makes people forget that the kingdom is still at war
In this easily intrusive and satisfying season, the fat man received a letter from Kyoto. The envelope of the letter was tattooed with a golden Saqi emblem representing the Duaikeri family in Kyoto. The fat man was captured alive in the letter. The matter of King Kujit Zuowei was greatly appreciated, and he suggested that the Fatty put the King Zuowei to the care of the Duaikeri family. In exchange, the Duaikeri family would propose to His Majesty that Fatty be made the Minister of the Kingdom Left. The fat falcon family will have the glory of living in Kyoto.
"What do you mean? Come down the mountain to pick peaches?" The fat man looked very depressed. The Duaikeri family was the mother of Dustan who was possessed by the fat man. In the battle for inheritance of the Falcon family, it was given to Dustan. It's a great help, but for Du Yu who is possessed by Dustam, these are meaningless. The fat guy took this letter to the hut.
Ten days later, the Kyoto Duaikeri family, who did not receive any reply, was finally disappointed with their poor southern relative. In their minds, this collateral idiot lord would be happy to use King Zuowei. In exchange for the glory of being able to live in the kingdom of Kyoto, but now it seems that this idiot who relies on himself to become the falcon lord does not put his family in his eyes at all.
"Your Majesty, this year’s grain harvest is only one-tenth of that of previous years. It is difficult to maintain the consumption of the army guarding Kyoto. We must levy a grain tax on each lord. The existing grain in Kyoto can only be maintained at most. Two months!"
Taksado, Minister of the Interior of the Kingdom, carefully looked at the guitar III on the throne. Recently, the king was worried about the negotiation of the soon to be delivered to the Swadian land. Now everyone can see that the Kujites are no longer good. Evacuation is only a matter of time. In this case, let the kingdom be handed over to a big county in Swadian. His Majesty is not reconciled. The nobles of the kingdom with a large number of private armies are not reconciled. When the special people evacuated, they did a lot of work. This is like a brand-name store that is about to open on a big sale. Whoever rushes over will own the land.
The war of nearly a year has made the noble private army an important part of the court meeting. The vengeful soldiers and the ambitious private noble army have filled the entire court meeting with a violent and oppressive atmosphere, and the power is weak. Civil officials dare not say more, these knights who worship the supremacy of force cannot fight the Kujites, and the civil servants who are not bound by the power of the chicken, that is one fight, one standard.
A few days ago, the left minister in charge of the treasury, the Marquis of Chidok, should have said a few more words about the private army generals' deduction of the soldiers' salaries, and let the main generals of the noble private army break their ribs. For this The act of blatant contempt, His Majesty the King just scolded a few words at will, chilling all the civil servants.
In fact, King Guitar III didn’t know that the army was too powerful, but he couldn’t help it. He was the culprit for the current situation of military rampage.
In order to supplement the serious shortage of the army, King Guitar III relaxed the restrictions on the establishment of the Kingdom’s Kyoto army. Many of the great financial resources, but the nobles of Kyoto began to form private armies, and a large number of private armies of the nobles blocked the Kurgits. ’S offensive, but it also made the kingdom’s Kyoto army unstoppable,
Of the 80,000 troops guarding Kyoto, the private army accounted for 40,000. This has reached one-half of the total military strength. This is an impermanent double-edged sword that can block the Kujites. The scimitar can also break through the walls of Kyoto Kristol
Because of the ongoing war, the fields in the central territory of the central kingdom were largely barren, and the residents fled in large numbers. The rural areas were ten and nine empty, and the remaining people could only rely on digging wild vegetables for a living. The food is only 600,000 quintals. If only the 20,000 standing army in the past years ~ IndoMTL.com~ is more than enough, but now there are 80,000 people in Guangjing, and there are 20,000 people stationed in the field. This amount of food seems too small.
At this time, the Marquis du Acry, one of the main representatives of the private army, stood up and suggested
"Your Majesty the King, I heard that the Southern Samorian region is a rare bumper harvest this year. Instead of letting the grain rot in the barns of those Southern country scumbags, it is better to take it out and reward our **** fighting army. The fact that the southern Satsuma region can have such a calm situation is entirely due to our Kyoto warriors blocking the Kujites. Otherwise, the Kujits’ machete would have smashed their small castle in the countryside!"
The words of the Marquis du Erice caused a lot of laughter among the court nobles. In this era when everyone has an army, the majesty of the royal family has long become history.
"Samoy? Well, yes, I remember it seems to be the resident of the Southern Army Corps. It is indeed the main food-producing area in the south!" Guitar III nodded slightly, although he was anxious that the Marquis Duéric would let Coogee tomorrow The special person chopped off his head, but he still has to put on an expression of appreciation and ignorance on his face
Actually, King Guitar III was not as ignorant as the private army nobles thought. After being besieged in Kudan Castle for several months, the isolated and helpless Guitar III realized a truth
"The arrogant must lose!"
Guitar III knows that Sommer is now under the rule of a Marquis Dustin. In the image of Guitar III, the heir of the Falcon family of this kingdom should have a marriage relationship with the Marquis Duéric who had a bad idea in front of him.
Since you are fighting each other, why don’t I push it?
"Marquis Duéric, since you are so familiar with the situation in the south, tomorrow you will send an envoy to the Satsuma area with my paperwork! The rations for the 100,000 soldiers in Kyoto will be handed over to you"
