Proof of the Sun King

The court of the Tsar, or the government-in-exile of Kislev, is now located in Bekafen, the capital of Ostermark. Due to the short period of time, the military supply of the Empire is still in a normal state for the time being, and the White Guard is still temporarily maintained. The establishment of the army.

It has to be said that the newly formed Romanov Guards are still somewhat similar. These soldiers are personally selected by the female tsar. The criteria for selection are naturally height, appearance and military posture, and the 5,000 soldiers are paid by The Tsar's personal wealth and the wealth of the Tsar's family are supplied, and the equipment is purchased from the empire Nur. The general logistics leader of this Motkin invasion of the empire is in charge of the old Krupp president of the Krupp Chamber of Commerce, Katarin. A batch of Nur standard equipment was obtained from Emilia and the old Krupp with low-cost mortgages and half-buying and half-giving.

Of course, Emilia is not a big philanthropist, the Virgin Mary, to take advantage of others. Lane's little maid is mainly for two reasons. The first is to arm this group of Mrs. Keisler to be able to deal with and involve at least part of the Chaos army, Reduce stress and losses on this side of the Empire.

The second is also because the main force of Chaos was defeated too quickly, and no one thought that Motkin would suddenly commit suicide, which led to a large number of factories in Nuer and the Krupp Chamber of Commerce that originally produced a large amount of weapons and equipment and military supplies, but they were useless. The backlog has become a big hassle, and now it is considered a clearance sale, reducing inventory and making small profits but quick turnover.

Emilia's military is not good, and both internal affairs and diplomacy are recognized as master-level. On the one hand, she has had a long-term mercenary career and is familiar with the social conditions and the hardships of the lower classes. On the other hand, she follows Ryan. I have learned a lot from Surya, especially Surya's extremely skilled court power and Ryan's endless whimsy and political diplomacy.

From the outside, the Romanov Guards look very good now, with tall stature and neat faces, and wearing the exquisite standard equipment produced by Nur, Katarin came out of her private residence to see these The appearance of the guards on duty gave me some comfort.

Knight King Ryan has his loyal and powerful old guard to **** me, and I also have my old guard!

I will prove that my old guard is no worse than his old guard!

At this time, important members of the State Duma outside also gathered. There are many of them. Here are some of the most important names. They are:

The current chief court minister of Kislev, Petrov-Panov.

The current Marshal of Kislev, commander of the White Guards Denikin.

The current Marshal Kislev, Romanov Guards commander Semenov.

The current finance minister, Demirov.

The current general of Kislev, the head of the general quarters of the White Guards and the chief of the general logistics, Bagramyan.

After the group of people arrived, they waited outside for a while, and did not rush in. When the chief court minister Petrov saw that the important people were almost all there, he laughed a few times and said, "It's almost time, Your Majesty at this time. It should be ready."

"I asked us to come here today to discuss matters. It should be to prepare for the Northern Expedition and regain the lost ground." Marshal Denikin was content at this time. He was wearing a military uniform and a military coat. , that's it."

"It may also be news from Erlengrad." Semenov's expression was not good. "Have you seen Arakcheev's embarrassed appearance? Maybe something happened to Erengrad."

"But I heard the news that someone secretly stabbed the White Guards to help the food!" Demirov's face was ugly, he deliberately shifted his attention to the Minister of Logistics Bagramian: "Well, maybe a woman As soon as the tsar was pleased, he dismissed us, and raised the whistleblower **** in our place, don't you think, General Bagramyan?"

"Humph!" General Bagramyan recalled Demirov's previous arrangement. After receiving the order and funding from the Tsar, Chancellor of the Exchequer Demirov did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent 300 gold ducats to himself. In his hand, he also seriously instructed: "Now the money is given to you! Hurry up and make the army's food better, and don't let anything happen again!"

In the end, something went wrong. Bagramian tried his best to do it. He used the budget of 300 ducats to the limit, and even went to negotiate the price with the merchants of Bekafen himself to ensure that the materials were delivered on time and in sufficient quantities. In the logistics of the White Guards, something happened in the end: "I don't know what's going on, but I have evidence here that I didn't take a penny of any expenses!"

"Oh, our general is really good at doing things. It seems that he is ready to be promoted to marshal!" Demirov said without getting the answer he wanted.

"Okay, don't embarrass Hof anymore." Petrov waved his hand to indicate that the matter was over: "Everyone, thank Ersun for his blessing, the main force of Chaos has been destroyed, and Erlengrad is also in Breton and people. With the help of the imperial people, it was restored, but now that something happened, His Majesty the Tsar will definitely not be in a better mood. As for the comfort food, if you can go over, try to go over there as much as possible, don’t make any more trouble, you guys Say yes?"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

"Peter is right!"

"Let's get this out of the way first, let's think of other ways later."

Everyone began to enter the venue one after another, only Bagramyan fell behind, the logistics minister snorted coldly, he wondered if he should consider resigning, and if he continued like this, even if he was not thrown out by the queen to take the blame, If you arrest them, you will be hated to death.

Relatively silent, they entered the hall one after another, and everyone sat down. At this time, Katarin had been waiting for a long time.

The house is lit with good ambergris, the fire is burning with the highest grade silver charcoal, and many furniture are newly made of fine cherry wood.

Katarin took out a small note and threw it on the table. The tsar was furious. She shouted at everyone, especially General Bagramyan: "Hoff! Look at you, all of you. What are you doing?! Why did I allocate 800 ducats to you! There is only so much food for consolation! Let me tell you, if you can't give a reasonable explanation today, then go to Yezhov and report it! "

Everyone's eyes were focused on General Bagramyan. The logistics minister took out a few documents from his body and motioned the attendants to hand them over to the queen: "Your Majesty, this is the shopping list. All the unit prices and total purchases are marked in it, and please allow me to correct Your Majesty's mistake, I didn't receive 800 ducats, I only received 300 ducats."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in the conference room became ugly.

"300?! Why is there only 300? Where did the remaining 500 go?!" Katarin took the document and read it and confirmed that Bagramyan was not corrupt, and the tsar became even more angry: "Dmirov! Get out of here! Come out! Didn't I give you 800 ducats? Why did you only take out 300?"

After hearing the questioning, Finance Minister Dmirov had to bite the bullet and stand out. He slowly bowed to Katarin, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, I have done my best to give General Bagramyan 300. Ah, the kingdom's financial expenses are huge, and many things have to stop waiting for money. I finally have some money, and I have to solve some of it. The debt and expenses are constantly in deficit, and it is difficult for me as the Minister of Finance! Please understand me, Your Majesty. difficulties.”

Katarin's expression softened a little after hearing these words. The tsar thought that Demirov had been her finance minister for more than ten years, and she had always been loyal, especially loyal. , I'm talking about this at the meeting today, I didn't mean to embarrass you, if you have any difficulties, you can mention it and make it clear, where did the other 500 ducats go?"

"The other 500 ducats are like this, of which 300 ducats were used to pay and compensate the shipyard in Bekafen for the arrears of the chartered ships, for the transport of supplies and military equipment from the rear." Milov first said where the first money went.

"But we have never seen a cargo ship here in our logistics!" Bagramyan went out of his way, and the logistics minister shouted: "We organized all the transport by hand! Your Majesty, in order to transport materials, hundreds of people are in the transport. Exhausted and even starved to death! And how could it be 300 ducats for renting a few boats?”

"Wait, I haven't finished yet." Demirov sneered for a while and added: "We did rent a boat and did transport the supplies, but the boat went up to the Tarabek River and encountered magic, here Isn't there a Chaos army in the river? The ships encountered some trouble, two ships caught fire, and one overturned, so they could only go by land. Well, this is the first money. The creditor is chasing after him. I can only give it first. Otherwise, we will not keep our promise and cause disputes. This is a trivial matter. "

Seeing that Katarin didn't speak any more, Chief Minister Petrov took the initiative to say: "Then, even if this matter is made clear, everyone should not do this next time. There are difficulties in transportation and troubles are all force majeure, but The money is still used in the right way, and I have to self-examine here. I didn’t make it clear, everyone said it was right? Three drinks!”

After speaking, Petrov drank three glasses of vodka.

Logistics Minister Bagramyan was speechless for a while. After listening to Katarin, she thought to herself that Demirov was still loyal to the Lord. Did she blame him wrongly? She waved her hand impatiently and motioned to continue: "Then what about the second money? Where did the 200 gold ducats go?"

"Also, it's the cost of repairing your majesty's palace, and the arrears of the palace." Demirov squeezed out a smile, and he said in a good voice, "His Majesty will visit Bekafen in the south, self-discipline to serve the public and evening clothes. Nian Shi, he is truly a generation of wise men, how can we ministers carelessly do things?”

Everyone nodded, and Demirov relaxed a little when he saw this, and continued, "His Majesty's court has already tried its best to be frugal, but some banquets have to be held, and some pomp and circumstance have to be set up, otherwise it will be detrimental to me, Keisler. Husband's national prestige is detrimental to the reputation of His Majesty the Tsar. In normal times, everyone does their best to support them. No one dares to suffer, Your Majesty. Therefore, we negotiated to suffer a little from the soldiers, and took out 200 Jindu. Carter, to subsidize Your Majesty's expenses, these are all expenses in the palace, and His Majesty has detailed accounts to check, don't you think, Marshal Semenov?"

"Exactly." The commander-in-chief of the Romanov Guards stepped forward, staring at Bagramyan: "I can testify, so can our old guards, Your Majesty, I want to say something for Minister Demirov If so, why is it that whoever does more is always the more wronged?! Can those soldiers understand our difficulties? It's not easy to understand His Majesty, so they keep making noise all day long! What a bunch of gangsters Itchy beast!"

Demirov looked really aggrieved with red eyes and tears.

These bastards! It was clearly because of these people... The Logistics Minister General Bagramyan's face was ashen, but he couldn't explain it at all, because if he tried to explain anything at this time, it would be pointing directly at His Majesty the Tsar. Katarin was not a good tempered person. There are countless prisoners who dare to directly accuse Katarin in the Ka prison!

Sure enough, Katarin's face softened even more. It seems that these ministers are still loyal enough, but the communication of information is not smooth. After hearing the words, the queen tsar took out a small note and asked one last question: "So, is there anyone? Can you explain why the total food value in the end was only 120 ducats?"

Without waiting for Bagramyan to speak, Denikin took the initiative to say: "When purchasing ingredients for the army, it is always safe and secure. What we buy are all good ingredients, good wine, and good meat. It's just that those soldiers have no culture, no Understand, they are all calculated according to the market price in the countryside, so it seems that there are few things and the price is expensive, which is normal."

"The price of local food is very high. If you want to buy food, you have to bring it from other places. It is winter and chaos, and some losses are normal." Petrov also said: "Bagramyan is responsible for this matter. , I also have a responsibility, in general, it is good that someone can ask questions, it shows that we are going with clear accounts, and there is a reason for where the money goes."

Combining the opinions of the Dumas, the Queen Tsar thought that the quality of the people was still low, and they were insatiable. In the future, this kind of consolation food will be forgotten.

Even though she is still a little strange about a few details in her heart, why did Catalin not get anything done in the end, and only 1.5% of the 800 gold ducats actually arrived? The rest is gone?

But the tsar reluctantly accepted these statements, and she had no intention of wasting any more time. She finally knocked: "I also remind you, don't do this kind of thing again next time, always clean up with your heart and do things with your heart, Be sympathetic to the hard work of the soldiers in battle, and the rewards and punishments are fair."

"Follow your orders!" Everyone knelt down together, and the matter was over.

General Bagramyan only felt blood dripping from his heart. He closed his eyes and kowtowed his head on the luxurious carpet from Ulthuan, his voice trembling: "Your Majesty... Shengming!"

"Okay, let's discuss it now, about the Northern Expedition!" Catalin motioned to discuss the next topic~www.wuxiaspot.com~The Northern Expedition!

"Your Majesty is different from Katarin." Talleyrand said with a smile: "The bureaucrats know who you are. Your Majesty is a hero, and you will not be dizzy and dizzy by what the bureaucrats say. Three drinks of fines are not enough. In addition, His Majesty sees people accurately, employs people appropriately, has his own sources of information, and has the complete independent supervision of His Royal Highness Morgiana. The bureaucrats do not dare to make small moves. Of course, the most important thing is, Your Majesty has the full support of the army, and your mighty army is very loyal, very, very loyal, which is rare and scares the bureaucrats at heart."

"Very rare?" Ryan became interested.

"Since ancient times, rulers have often faced a dilemma. Those who have the ability cannot guarantee loyalty, and those who are loyal are often incompetent." Talleyrand nodded: "After weighing the pros and cons, the instincts of the rulers are all People who prefer loyalty, even though most of these people are incompetent, but this reassures them that only you, my king of knights, can control a large group of people with endless victories and superior domestic and foreign capabilities. The capable subordinates convinced them."

"Including you? Talleyrand?" Ryan glanced at the lame man.

"Your Majesty has shown your might and won my loyalty." Talleyrand smiled and bowed: "Of course, it would be even better if you could give me an elf horse to travel~"

"Hahaha! Okay, go back to Britannia, you take my message to Surya's stables to pick a half-blooded elf war horse as a gift to you. It's a reward for you!" Ryan laughed. , he nodded and agreed: "Before that, you go to the barracks to pick a good horse for your ride."

"Thank you so much!" Talleyrand immediately bowed in thanks, the corners of the lame's mouth twitching.

Plan pass!
