Chapter 66 Resurrection (Part 2)

He then shouted this, but Carlo's heart sank.

From the eyes of the officers, they were serious, that is, they placed the object of allegiance on Cons, not the kingdom or the king.

A word changes people's hearts!

Carlo remembered what Cons said to him and others not long ago: "Although I can't change everything, isn't it great to change what I can change?"

Just one sentence made Carlo ponder for a long time.

Cons, Cons, it’s not that I underestimate you, but no matter what, you are just a soldier who has just left the illiterate. Why can you say such profound words?

"No need to do this, keep working hard for your living subordinates, Ida continues." Cons waved his hand a little uncensoredly.

Ida wanted to change the atmosphere and hurriedly said, "The two battles captured a total of more than 150,000 bandits. After random inspections, there were more than 87,000 strong men with good health and physical strength. These people are all strong, and most of them have combat experience. After a little training, they can become elite soldiers who are comparable to veterans."

Hearing this, the officer, who had not yet subsided, his eyes immediately shone.

More than 80,000 strong! More than 80,000 soldiers can be formed after a little training! So, isn’t the Cons army more than 100,000? That’s the force of two legions!

More officers thought that when the army was expanded, wouldn’t they have the opportunity to become team leaders?

"Sir, my subordinates ask to replenish the troops as soon as possible and carry out strengthening training immediately!" The officers shouted.

Cons shook his head: "It is necessary to replenish troops, and I will continue to expand the troops."

As soon as these words were said, the happy people accounted for the vast majority.

"But since my number is a brigade, the infantry number cannot exceed five teams, and the cavalry number cannot exceed two teams. In this way, the strengthening brigade can be used as a cover-up to the outside world."

This made most people murmur in their hearts: "Cover up? Real forces plus prisoners are the organization of two legions. Can you say that the brigade team is trusted? I really don't understand what the adults are concerned about."

Cons continued: "Those elites, in addition to supplementing the original staffing, will be reorganized and dismantled. The above officers will be appointed according to the amount of credit. If you have any objections, you can respond to me. Now continue to listen to the content of the Ida report."

Ida smiled and said, "This time, not only was it on the battlefield, but also seized a large number of weapons from the bandits' nests, which was definitely enough to distribute all expanded troops. However, the cavalry troops have very shortage of war horses, but there is no need to worry, our army seized a large amount of wealth, enough to buy the cavalry troops' war horses."

These words immediately made the atmosphere warm again. Although everyone knew that a lot of supplies had been seized, they didn't know how many of them were, and they all pricked up their ears.

"Because there are a lot of supplies, our logistics department calculates all the supplies except food into gold coins." Ida suffocated everyone's appetite, stopped for a while, and continued: "According to our statistics, we have obtained a total of nearly two million gold coins, and the grain is more than 600,000 dan."

This sentence immediately shocked the officers present. Oh my God! Two million gold coins! There is not so much treasury, right? And that food is enough for the whole country to eat for a long time!

Where did those robbers search?

After a while, the officers woke up, their eyes were red, and they stared at Cons.

Cons smiled slightly: "Since we have seized such a military expense, then all current staff members will be rewarded with a gold coin regardless of their military position, and the subsequent reward will be rewarded according to the amount of merit."

The entire army rewards sound like a lot, but the Cons army only has more than 40,000 people, each of which only has more than 40,000 gold coins.

However, since the soldiers have a reward of a gold coin, they must be no less. The officer immediately smiled, especially the cavalry officers who owe a lot of debts, and were even more happy.

"As for the use of military expenditure, I think it takes a lot of money to buy military horses and weapons, and also a large number of military uniforms are required. What do you think?" Cons said.

Most of the officers didn't understand this, so they had to keep silent and wait for others to speak.

Carlo immediately suggested, "We can go to the royal tribe to buy it."

When he learned that the army had so much military expenditure, he wanted to suggest giving the princess some money, but on the one hand he was afraid of being accused of being scattered, and on the other hand he could not talk to other people who didn't know the situation, which meant that the princess was financially in a hurry. Even if she really told her, there were probably few people who believed it, so Carlo had to shut up.

But now his proposal is also in disguise for the sake of the princess. After all, a large amount of money is spent in the capital, and the capital's tax revenue will also increase.

Ida shook his head: "My subordinates believe that we should recruit merchants and technicians from all over the country to produce the materials needed by our army here, and even give the relatively simple work to local residents, and our military will pay the materials and wages.

"This will not only further the relationship between the military and civilians, but also allow the people to earn some extra money and increase their purchasing power. I believe that stores such as shops will definitely appear at that time, so that our army's economic power within the control area will definitely be restored quickly.

"With transactions, we can collect taxes. Then we won't be afraid of using up all military spending. You must know that taxes are the guarantee of endless wealth."

Cons nodded in agreement, and the other officers agreed after seeing Cons nodding. Maybe a city would become as prosperous as a king.

Among the people present, Carlo was a little disappointed. He decided to talk to Cons in private after the meeting. If Cons knew the current financial situation of the princess, he believed that Cons would definitely give the princess some money.

Carlo read that Cons was not wrong. He only mentioned it briefly and Cons asked how much he would give.

Although the more hope the better, Carlo dared not speak out. You should know that military expenditure is open, and for some reason, a large amount of money is missing, and anyone will ask.

So he only had 100,000 gold coins. If it were such a small amount of money, everyone would think that Cons embezzled him and would not say anything.

The final result was of course as he expected. The person who saw the financial situation did not say anything at all, but there were some bad rumors in secret.

Although Cons didn't care, the angry Ida was unwilling to take the blame for his commander. He immediately sent his personal soldiers to refute the rumors in the army and explained to them that the 100,000 gold coins were proposed by Carlo, the first team leader, to pay tribute to the princess, and the cavalry who just happened to be back from the king also proved the matter.

When Carlo heard rumors about Cons, he felt a little guilty, and when he heard the truth from the army, he soon became ashamed again.

It is normal for the army to pay money to the princess. After all, this army grew up under the care of the princess. After hearing these words, Carlo could only regret that he was not bright enough. He had known how good it would have been proposed at the meeting, so his troops would not dare to meet Cons and Ida now.

As Kai Yicheng started to attract foreign investment, one or two bold merchants first went to this chaotic place to see the situation, waited for all the goods to be sold, and got a large order. When they found that there was not even a pickpocket here, merchants who were moved immediately flocked to the scene.

Local people made military uniforms for the army, and the profits of farming and planting made their wallets swelled up, and they began to buy some necessities, making opening a city even more prosperous.

Ida, who was in charge of logistics, had only a few gold coins for the first time, but he was happy that he was smiling all day long.

As for the Cons troops, they trained desperately.

Everyone wants to join the brigade's direct troops, and no one wants to become a baggage unit or a left-behind unit. The training level is close to the death.

Because he was in training, Cons did not attack other areas, but only guarded his original territory. However, he had annexed the troops of hundreds of thousands of robbers in one go, and no one with no eyes dared to provoke him, so this chaotic area suddenly became very calm.

With 100,000 gold coins in the Palace of Qihong, and the military newspaper that Cons eliminated 200,000 bandits, Alice couldn't help but be full of energy and taught the civil and military officials of the court a lesson.

Although these giants were respectful on the surface, when they heard Alice expressing her desire to promote Cons as the division commander, the ministers immediately strongly opposed it.

There are two reasons: not aristocrats, they are very young. Anyway, there is no way to do military merits, so hurry up on Cons' age and non-nobles to do the problem.

Alice was so angry that she used up no matter how she was coerced and tempted. The damn guys below refused to let Cons go to the palace.

Alice glared aside without saying anything, but Gula looked at her with a smile on her face, complaining in her heart that this old man really didn't take herself seriously, and she couldn't even be a peacemaker! Bastard!

Although Gula knew that the princess was dissatisfied with him, he didn't care at all.

During this period, he was full of spring breeze because his son Kane, who was transferred to Wilter City, had someone run back to report that his wife was pregnant.

Haha, I will be my grandfather in a few months. Humph, I am waiting to hold my grandson now, so I am too lazy to pay attention to your dirty things.

If I hadn't been waiting for that guy in the capital, I would have asked for leave to go to Wilter City long ago.

Seeing that Zhanla didn't care how ugly her face was, Alice couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and was about to announce her retreat. At this moment, the doorman shouted, "Mr. Gula, your housekeeper has something urgent to report to you!"

Originally, summoning such a person requires the princess’ consent, but Gula, who felt bad in her heart, didn’t think so much and said directly: “Call him in.”

Gula's behavior almost made Alice break her silver teeth. This old guy simply regarded herself as the owner of the palace!

The minister and the queen covered their mouths and laughed secretly, especially the queen. She felt that she should be able to eat two more bowls of rice today and feel comfortable.

Only then did Gula remembered that he was taking the liberty, but he just bowed to Alice casually: "Your Highness is sorry, I'm afraid something happened at home, so I abducted power."

"It's okay." Alice could only say with a slight smile.

At this time, Gula's housekeeper's hair was messy, sweat was all over, and his eyes were actually filled with fear and sadness.

Seeing all this, Gula's heart immediately contracted. Before she could ask, the housekeeper's tears flowed silently, and then he said in a choking and hoarse voice: "Master, Master... Master and Madam... are assassinated!"

"What?" Gula immediately felt like she was struck by lightning.hf();
