Heart of Empire

Chapter 441 Hands on Warlords (2 in 1)

As soon as the restructuring of the Governor's Guard Corps was completed, Dane encountered an annoyance.

The Freya woman found the door again.

The female paladin Freya had been wounded in Ghostblade Harbor for almost a month, and she had just recently recovered.

With this self-cultivation, she remembered her responsibilities again-they had to clear the demon of Cinderella.

She didn't come, Dane couldn't remember. When she came here, Dane remembered that she had an account and hadn't calculated with these clergymen.

For a long time, Dane had no time to talk to them, but this did not mean that Dane did not know who was helping the ghost sword port when he performed the purification ceremony of the evil god's tentacles in Comilla more than a month ago.

In addition to these priests, who else?

Those who were motivated to do this kind of thing, capable of doing this kind of thing, and had a deeper understanding of intelligence, on the island of Comilla at the time, there were no other people except these priests.

The reason why it was not difficult at that time was that, on the one hand, considering that there was no conclusive evidence, for the clergy of the Holy See, which was famous throughout the Big Six, Dane was not easy to start directly; and at the time, the purification ceremony was in progress Later, his energy was involved in the construction of the underground city-Sadooli, and the reform of the Governor's Guard Corps. He had no time to deal with these people.\nAnd Dane just ignore them, they dare to come to the door?

It's a dead end.

Of course, Freya refused to admit it. However, in the end, after Dane had brought in direct contact with the clergy, and then arrested the adventurers responsible for spreading the news in Ghostblade Harbor, Freya had nothing to say.

In the end, this priesthood of the Holy See was "gifted" out of the territory by Dane-of course, if you say that it was driven out, Dane would never admit it.

In fact, Cindriela Dane is going to fight. If he hadn't, he wouldn't mind taking the priesthood of the Holy See with him. After all, more than sixty clergymen, with an average professional level of one rank, can be regarded as a relatively powerful force, and they are all paladins and priests using divine power in the battle to purify the devil. The role that China can play out should still be great.

But now, Dane has no idea. The reason is simple. These people were severely damaged after the battle under the island of Comilla. Only a dozen individuals were able to persist until Dane's support and left the underground world alive, and several of them lost most of their fighting power forever because of their injuries.

Such a team no longer has any combat power, so Dane naturally will not value them so much.

What's more, these priests, including Freya, are a group of guys who don't obey orders. When they take them to war, they must always worry that this group of people will act without authorization, and it will easily cause trouble. Moreover, relying on the identity of the Holy See, Dion will also find it difficult to deal with them.

Can't help, but it is likely to add chaos. What do Dane take with them like this?

Simply blow away and pull down.

However, before bombing them away, Dane decided to give them a 'sweetness'.\nThis so-called sweetness is the news that Cecilia got when she returned from the dark jungle, that the peaceful place has now become a paradise for the cursed church. Dane wasn't sure if the Holy See had received this information-he estimates that those mad believers must know this. But he did not mind at all to continue to exert a little pressure on the Holy See through other channels.

After all, if the Holy See is willing to deal with those **** who curse the church, Dane would raise his hands and feet to welcome him.

...

At this moment, it was the summer season of Schindler, and at this time, Dane also decided to start.

The target he was going to take was the warlord forces with the coordinates of White Wolf Castle in both east and west directions.

Schindler is a paradise for warlords. In this case, there is not only a large warlord on this land, but also many small warlords.

For these small warlords, Dane never took the time to clean up, but sooner or later he had to get them all out.

After all, he is not content at all just to be the governor of Schindler, he wants to be king, to end the century of chaos in Schindler, and to build a country that can be unified and centralized. He would never tolerate the existence of various warlord forces in his country who did not obey orders.

The first thing to clean up is the guys from the east.

From the direction of White Wolf Castle to the northeast, the normal march went for more than half a month, which is the beast blood castle. But in fact, there are three small warlord forces on the land between Bailangbao and Beastblood for half a month and nearly two hundred kilometers away.

‘Evil Eye’ Bergen, ‘Morto, the Executioner’, ‘Blind Dragon’.\nThese three small warlords, nominally one year ago, were allies of Dion. They are sandwiched between the White Wolf Castle and the Beast Blood Castle. Without any suspense, they must join the battle line between him and Ozer. Otherwise, it will never exist to this day.

However, the war did not really threaten their own interests in essence—the small warlords usually only put their eyes on one acre and one-third of their own land. Where is there any thought to control the general situation?

It is precisely because of this that they did not enter the battlefield themselves, but under the orders or threats of Ozer, they sent a total of more than 2,000 soldiers to join Ozer's army.

This is a complete number. In essence, their troops did not persist until the start of the war, and they were almost consumed as cannon fodder in the earliest battle in Ice Cave City.

After winning the war and leaving Ozer away, Dyne became the de facto Governor of Hindler, and they soon sent envoys to show their intention to surrender to Dyne. They regard Dane as Ozer in the past, and do not mind handing over a portion of the territory to Dane as a tribute, and do not mind sending troops to assist the battle when Dane needs it.

In their opinion, such a representation is enough. But in Dane's eyes, this is not enough.

There is no warlord position for Dyne's Schindler's future. There are only two paths he left for these three people:

Complete surrender of authority, or death.

...

New Caesar 218 years, June 17.

After being calm for half a year, Hindler was in trouble again. The governor of Hindlerell, ‘Mad Wolf’ Dane, issued a command to the three warlords northeast of White Wolf Castle.\nThe order was signed in the form of a letter by Dion himself, and a messenger was sent to the three people. Then, the order was publicized in the name of the Governor-General at White Wolf Fort.

The decree looked up and wrote this line: "Trial Notice of Local Government System in Tianshuizhou Region".

The content of this decree is very simple. The so-called Tianshuizhou area is the place from Bailangbao to the northeast to the animal blood castle. The so-called 'local government system', it is clear that the three warlords in Tianshuizhou have given a signal: I want to turn Tianshuizhou into a local government, and you warlords will give me a way.

In fact, the content of this decree is similar.

Require all illegal military groups in Tianshuizhou area to disarm within one month and wait for the next arrangement and order; require all industries in Tianshuizhou area to take stock by themselves, and one month later, an official sent by the Governor's House will check; After a month, the Tianshuizhou County Government will be established, and all administrative affairs in the area will be taken over by the local government. All military forces will be under the direct control of the Governor.

This decree of Dyne is condemning the death penalty of the three warlords, namely, "evil eye" Baiergen, "executor" Molotto, and "blind dragon" Odau.

If the decree is really implemented, wouldn't it mean that the three of them are completely finished? Hand over the army within a time limit, hand over administrative power within a time limit, inventory the property ...

Military power, administrative power, and economic property were all surrendered. This is obviously to force the three of them to die.

Dane does exactly that.

He would never be naive to think that he became the governor of Hindler's territory, and he was truly destined to be able to unify the country. Warlords will not give up their power, and they are especially unlikely to give up their army. Under such circumstances, there is an untunable contradiction between him and the local warlord.

Needless to say, as long as Dane asks others to surrender the army, the warlords must not die.\nWar is obviously an inevitable thing.

In this case, Dane had no intention of coordinating in administrative laws.

However, Dane gave them a choice.

In fact, after sending a ambassador to Mingnian, he issued the "Notice" to the three warlords in Tianshuizhou area, and also gave them a private letter.

The content of the private letter will not be as cold as an open administrative decree.

In a private letter, Dane explained to them their ideas about ending the situation of the local warlords of Hindlerell and the desire to establish peace. Of course, these statements naturally cannot have any influence on the warlords. They are warlords and not idealists. How could Dyne be willing to surrender authority in the vernacular?

If you want to persuade others, it is natural that there must be real benefits.

At the end of the private letter, Dane made a clear promise that as long as they surrendered the army and took off the status of warlord, Dane would give them an explanation.

In this explanation, Dane himself thought that it was quite generous.

If they wish, they can join Dion's legion and simply serve as a general.

They will have a relatively high starting point and become a senior officer in Dane's military group, taking on certain responsibilities in accordance with their respective capabilities, and in the future, will be promoted in accordance with military merits, like everyone else. There will be a slight bias.\nIf they do n’t want to continue to join the army, it does n’t matter. Dane can set aside a part of the land and let them operate as a businessman or landlord. The land is not needed, and it is given to a part of the city ’s industry. That ’s fine, or just give a lot of money. .

Moreover, no matter which path they choose, whether to join the army or to return to the field, Dane is willing to provide some economic and political benefits.

For example, the annuity system, the tax revenue of Tianshuizhou area, within a certain number of years, take a certain percentage as their personal income. Politically, Dane decided to implement the honorary aristocracy system and give certain political privileges preferential treatment.

This is Dane's future for them, and guarantee their wealth for half a life, in exchange for their authority to surrender the warlord.

And if they don't want to, Dane won't be polite to them at all.

The Governor's Guard Corps, which has just completed the restructuring, does not take long, and the 10,000-strong elite troops are ready.

The actions of the Governor's Guard Corps were not hidden at all, and the bright one was placed on the border of Bailangbao near Tianshuizhou.

This legion is like a sharp blade placed on the necks of the three warlords by Dion ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~, and the private letter delivered to them is the candy held by Dion in the other hand . And what he meant was obvious--

"Eating sugar or being knifed? Choose it yourself."

The three warlords responded differently.

"Evil Eye" Byrgen seemed hesitant. After being notified, there was not much movement within his sphere of influence. Neither began preparations, nor did he respond positively to Dane's notice, nor did he respond to any of Dane's envoys. According to the news that the eyeliner placed beside him came back, Berger, who was a businessman in his early years, is currently in a shake, and he seems to be watching the other two actions.\n‘Blind Dragon’ Ao Dao ’s response was pretty good. He communicated with Dion very frequently through the envoy of Dion. This old man, who is over six years old, wants to know how much he can gain if he surrenders authority. According to his attitude, he should just want to continue bargaining, take the power in his hands as a commodity, and raise the price to a higher price.

As for the 'executor' Molotto, his response was the most intense. He directly detained the ambassador to his territory, and publicly executed Dyne's ambassador a week later, and said ruthlessly: "That wolf cub thought he was invincible? Shit! Yes If the **** is raised, try it at Tianshuizhou. I will definitely use Tomahawk to give him an unforgettable lesson and let him know that in the land of Hindler, it is not his hybrid who has the final say. of!"

After reading the returned information, Dane clearly wrote the original words of Molotto, sneered to tear the letter into pieces, threw it in the trash, and said gently:

"Want to die? I fulfill you."
