The proposal for disarmament was passed at the meeting without any danger, and a group of nobles began to disband the army in tacit understanding.

It seems to be asking for advice, but in fact it is also forcing everyone to accept it. Starting next month, the kingdom will no longer provide logistics supplies to the army.

It would be OK if you think you can afford to support so many troops and continue to retain your current huge military equipment.

Theoretically, the number of private troops of the nobles is unrestricted. No law in the kingdom stipulates the scale of the private troops of the nobles.

It’s not that the king didn’t want to issue similar laws, but the problem is that the nobles below are all princes, and it is impossible for them to agree to such laws that bind themselves.

In some special periods, it was not new that some great nobles once surpassed the king's strength.

"Earl, the Alliance Parliament issued an announcement that it will establish three kingdoms and four principalities in the Orc Prairie, and is currently collecting national names from the outside world."

After hearing Tom's words, Hudson frowned slightly. The structure of the Three Kingdoms and Four Principles is undoubtedly the result of compromise between all parties.

I originally thought that the orc prairie in the future would be a small country, but I didn’t expect that the integration had been completed just now.

The ability to jointly establish a country is obviously the result of the fact that multiple forces have formed their own groups. The meaning of the Alpha Kingdom is really not too obvious.

As a senior executive of the kingdom, Hudson now has to broaden his horizons and consider issues from an international perspective.

The birth of the seven grassland kingdoms does not threaten the survival of the Alpha Kingdom in a short period of time, but this also blocks the road for the future expansion of the Alpha Kingdom.

The vast orc prairie, even if it is divided into seven, it will not be a small country.

Under the pattern surrounded by great powers, the development space of the Alpha Kingdom has basically been locked.

Break the deadlock, let’s forget it!

As a rising star, Hudson did not have that great ambition.

What's more, everyone did this to give enough face to the Alpha Kingdom. If they deliberately make trouble and establish a unified country in the Orc Prairie, it would really make the Alpha Kingdom unable to sleep.

Everyone is busy digesting the fruits of victory. For a long time to come, there will be no major conflict between the parties, which is enough.

As for the newly emerged seven crowns, Hudson was too lazy to pay attention to it. No matter who was on the throne, it was not his turn.

In the Aslant continent, which emphasizes bloodline, the throne is always something that is born with, and there is a high probability that it will not be born with it.

There are cases of counterattacks and superiors, but they are all driven by the right time, place, and people. Without any link, it is impossible to successfully counterattack.

Everything has two sides, and the great changes on the grassland also have a positive side to the Alpha Kingdom.

At least Hudson's current troubles can basically be overcome safely. It is also very necessary to appropriately strengthen the aristocratic strength in the border areas in the face of potential border threats.

If nothing unexpected happens, Caesar III will soon choose to make concessions and allow the great nobles in the country to plant flags in border provinces.

After all, the previous restrictive actions were essentially worried that they would expand northward after gaining a foothold.

Now that the hope of expanding north is cut off, it will be meaningless to keep an eye on everyone.

Some are destined to be happy and some are sad.

If nothing unexpected happens, according to the previous distribution model, the great nobles will take away 40%, the medium nobles will take away 25%, and the small nobles will take away the last 35%.

Originally, the royal family had another share, but this time the situation was special. The royal family also helped to recover the homelands of the three provinces.

The lands of these three provinces alone are enough for the royal family to digest for decades. As a smart man, Caesar III naturally would not be greedy.

Looking at the map hanging on the wall, Hudson smiled slightly. No matter how the north changes, it has nothing to do with him, the nobleman in the southern border.

It is also applicable to nobles when people leave their hometowns. Old-fashioned aristocrats’ network of personal connections is spread all over the world. Even if they shift the strategic focus, they can integrate into new circles in a short period of time.

For nouveau riche like the Koslo family, it is better to stay where they are honest. If you break into a new circle, you will only be eaten and wiped away.

The children of northern nobles who went south before were the best examples. Even if the backstage was strong enough, they were still tossed by local snakes.

If those guys hadn't followed the right boss this time, it would have been the time for them to be liquidated after the war.

Even with Hudson following, the dividends of this war now have nothing to do with them.

All is because they are northern nobles!

If you enjoy the benefits brought by the political interest group of the Northern nobility, you must bear the corresponding backlash.

Now the Northland aristocratic group is suppressed in the kingdom, and the development of these Northland aristocratic children is naturally limited.

This kind of political suppression will continue in the next few years, even decades.

There is no way, who made the nobles in the northern region offend the kingdom all the time when they were strong, and then they happened to be caught by everyone?

Looking at the entire Alpha Kingdom, except for themselves, the rest are political enemies.

What's worse is that their geographical location and the strength they possessed seriously threatened the interests of the nobles of the kingdom in the north.

Unless everyone feels that the potential threat disappears, this kind of suppression will always be accompanied.

The best way to get rid of this predicament is to wait. Time can dilute everything. When everyone slowly forgets the threat of the northern nobles, the relationship can be normalized.

There is no way to speed up this process, such as the most common operation: political marriage.

"Tom, send someone to inform the think tank and ask them to come up with a plan to deal with changes in the situation in the kingdom as soon as possible!"

Hudson immediately ordered.

After working hard for so long, I finally formed a think tank team. Unfortunately, I am still too immature and am currently in the internship stage.

In normal times, it is okay to help deal with trivial matters. Once major political changes are involved, the shortcomings of insufficient vision will be exposed immediately.

This is determined by origin. No matter how powerful the talents among the little aristocrats are, the education they receive since childhood still constrains their horizons.

Now Hudson can only provide them with as many opportunities to exercise as possible. Even though they know that it is difficult for them to see through the essence of the problem, they can only force them to understand it.

Hudson could only comfort himself: his ability was a little bit better, so he would avoid headaches after being poached.

Competition among the great nobles has always been full of tricks, and it is common for them to poach each other.

Hudson was not poached because he was so powerful, but because he was not outstanding in his subordinates, everyone was attracted by it.

When he was the head coach, the commander's office could run smoothly because the auxiliary officers were all drawn from the great nobles.

These people serve the coach, not Hudson himself. After leaving his current position, they will not buy it in an instant.

...

"Your Majesty, Earl Hudson has submitted his resignation again!"

Minister of Military Affairs, Grand Duke Afiero, said with a embarrassed look on his face.

It is not popular in the Aslant continent that "three resignations and three requests" are common. Generally speaking, if you submit your resignation, you really want to resign.

According to convention, the kingdom will not force aristocrats to hold important positions. After all, there is nothing in this world, but there is no shortage of people who want to be officials.

What's more, it's the commander of the three armies, such a high-powered position. As long as you release the wind, the nobles who want to take this position can be lined up from the capital to the Blood Moon Castle.

Anyway, the war has ended and the disarmament work has begun. The requirements for the commander's ability have also been greatly reduced, so it seems not difficult to change someone.

However, this is just the surface. It seems that the kingdom is calm, but the undercurrents hidden underground have never stopped.

If it weren't for a strong coach who was suppressing him, the nobles of the kingdom wouldn't be so calm. Going out to duels with disagreement is never new in the aristocratic circle.

"Tell Count Hudson to take on the obligations of the nobles of the kingdom.

After the disarmament work is completed and all the nobles from the kingdom return to their fiefs, I will agree to his resignation.

Before these tasks are completed, he, the coach, must be on duty!”

Caesar III said helplessly.

It was incredible to think about it. Other kings were worried that their powerful ministers would dominate the military power and threaten the safety of the royal power. When he arrived at him, he became the commander and wanted to resign every day, but the king refused to let him go.

In fact, he had long thought of replacing people. However, looking around the generals in the army, he had no choice but to find that there were too few "his own people".

The royal generals either lack prestige and cannot convince the public; or they are not capable of taking on this important task.

When it comes to military power, you must never take it lightly. There is no chaos during wartime, and if something happens in peacetime, it will be embarrassing.

The key is that once the big nobles grab their braids and want military affairs in the future, it will be difficult to deal with.

"Your Majesty, Count Hudson is in a hurry to resign, most of the pressure exerted by the nobles in the army.

In order to promote the disarmament plan, Count Hudson also made a lot of efforts. It is said that he had a big fight several times in the middle, but in the end he was forcibly passed by him as the head coach.

This time, the kingdom's standing army was greatly reduced, and the power of the major nobles in the army was probably also severed.

It is not easy to not cause trouble!”

Afiero explained publicly.

The number of standing troops was compressed so badly, the most critical factor was that there was no money to make trouble.

"It's a good time to borrow money, and it's a crematorium to pay off debts."

The Kingdom of Alpha has issued a large number of bonds one after another, and coupled with the foreign debts it owed before, the Kingdom's finances have long been overwhelmed.

In order to save expenses, even the celebration banquets were kept simple. The administrative expenses that could be reduced in the kingdom were even cut to the extreme.

No matter how much you save money, it still seems like a drop in the bucket when facing a huge debt of nearly 100 million yuan.

Not to mention repaying the principal, paying the interest on the funds alone puts great pressure on the Alpha Kingdom.

Among the many daily expenses in the kingdom, the biggest expenditure was military expenses. In the past, military expenses could account for more than 60% of the total expenses.

This is also the reason why Hudson was immediately regarded as a "big loyal minister" by the top leaders of the kingdom after he proposed the disarmament plan.
