MTL - The King-Chapter 366 must add money

  The top of the holy mountain.

   "Your Majesty, the opportunity has come! The Alpha Kingdom fabricated evidence and framed the Counties of Korubia. If we can stand up and uphold justice, we will be able to teach them a hard lesson.

   Poor Caesar III Wise I actually cultivated a foolish heir. With such a prodigal son, why worry that the Alpha Kingdom will not decline! "

   Blake said excitedly.

  He, the sad leader of the Judgment Knights, is on par with the Alpha Kingdom. All tasks related to the Alpha Kingdom were all messed up. If it wasn't for the deep foundation, he would have been kicked out of power long ago.

  The position is barely preserved, but the right to speak in the Holy See has plummeted. Being bullied by colleagues is commonplace.

   He has messed up too many tasks in his hands, and he still wears the hat of "wearing crimes and making meritorious service", and he doesn't speak hard.

  The accumulated anger has no place to vent, and now he has finally seized the handle of the Alpha Kingdom, and he really can't bear it anymore.

   "Fool!"

   "Caesar IV is a fool, and you, Blake, are not very smart. Just thinking of grabbing the handle of the Alpha Kingdom, don't forget that there is also the Hesse Kingdom with them.

   Want to suppress the two kingdoms at the same time, do you really think we are still at the peak?

  Don't be fair and fail to preside over it successfully, but yourself will be humiliated, then you will be humiliated.

   Whether fabricating evidence or framing the case, the key still depends on the attitudes of the mainland countries.

  If everyone is willing to admit it, the fake can become true; if everyone is unwilling to believe it, even the real evidence can become false!

  Let’s wait and see the good show, I’m sure: Dante Kingdom and South Bank Kingdom will think that the content of the note is true, and they are worried that they can’t find an entry point to go north?

  Frank, the heretic, has been looking for an opportunity to annex the Kingdom of Oprus. Someone came out to break the balance, and it was too late for him to be happy.

  Ilibia also has its own small calculations, and at most they verbally condemn the joint actions of the Kingdom of Hesse and the Kingdom of Alpha.

  Other human nations will strongly oppose it, but are their opinions important?

  Doing things should not be influenced by personal emotions. It is our duty to fight against heresy, but before taking action, we must at least weigh the pros and cons.

  The old king of the Kingdom of Ruthenia is old, and the crown prince has a great prejudice against us. Letting him inherit the throne is not conducive to conveying the glory of the Lord of Dawn.

   On the contrary, the second prince is a devout believer and has a great affection for us. Supporting him to inherit the throne is more conducive to..."

  Gu Lei's eloquent analysis made Blake half dead. He wanted to open his mouth to argue, but swallowed the words when they reached his lips.

  The geographical location of the Kingdom of Ruthenia is too important. Their existence directly blocks the Holy See on the peninsula, away from the center of the mainland. If you want to restore the glory of the Holy See, you must pull out this nail.

   Don't look at Gu Lei's easy words, just support the second prince's succession. In actual operation, it is almost impossible to use this plan to complete it.

   It seems that it is just a change of heir, but in fact it is shaking the ancient succession system to the throne and impacting all monarchy countries.

  This kind of behavior that seriously violates the rules of the game will not only be rejected by the nobles of the Kingdom of Ruthenia, but also strongly opposed by countries on the mainland.

  Even if it has been planned for many years and penetrated into the Kingdom of Ruthenia for many years, it is still a paper plan in the end.

   Finally, someone took the lead in breaking the rules of the game, and the Holy See was too happy, so how could it continue to maintain the rules?

   It involves the core strategy of the Holy See, and Blake knows that no matter how much he opposes it, it is useless, so he can only suffer this boring loss.

"snort!"

   After a cold drink, the leader of the Blake Legion whose IQ reoccupied the high ground immediately added:

   "Your Majesty, although the current international situation is what we want, we still need to contain the great enemy of the Alpha Kingdom, and we cannot allow them to easily carve up Korubia.

  We already hold a large number of war bonds of the Principality of Moxi and the Kingdom of Alpha. As long as we sell them, it will immediately trigger a run.

  The Moxi Principality, which has the worst finances, will definitely not be able to sustain it. Perhaps as long as the run on starts, they can only choose to go bankrupt.

  Under the chain reaction, the Alpha Kingdom cannot escape. The huge debt was suppressed all of a sudden, no matter how united the nobles in their country were, they would not be able to raise enough cash for a while.

   If the finances of the Alpha Kingdom were ruined, even if the Counties of Korubia delivered it to their mouths, they would not be able to eat it! "

   Based on the principle that if you can't be beaten to death, you must be disgusted to death. He is unwilling to give up any opportunity to attack the Alpha Kingdom.

  No one objected this time, regardless of whether the plan can be realized in the end, it is always right to try hard.

   "Well, throw out all the war bonds in our hands at once to create as much panic as possible.

  Arrange our people to mix in and guide them, and encourage these little nobles to go to the two countries to pay in advance.

  Plan carefully. After the operation is completed, all traces of our participation will be erased immediately, so that no one can find out that this matter has something to do with us! "

   Pius VII said seriously.

  The seemingly ordinary means of economic attack can cause lethality, but it is not small at all. Not only would it implicate that hapless man in the Principality of Moxi, but it would also affect countless bondholders.

  If the news leaks out, there will be many people who will be offended.

   According to the normal situation, the Alpha Kingdom can fulfill its debts. Once it is run to the point of default, it is 100% reckless.

   After all, the national reputation has been lost, even if it continues to perform debts later, it will not be recovered. It is better to smash the cans, at least it can save a huge sum of money.

   Thinking of this, Pius VII frowned. Deep down, he's starting to wonder if it's the right thing to do.

   Bankrupting the Alpha Kingdom's finances will indeed have a great political impact, but it will also save money!

   After tossing around, the heavy debt burden that was originally on them was directly unloaded.

   No matter how hard you scold, it’s useless, no money is no money. Under the wave of runs, it is impossible for the Alpha Kingdom to come up with so much cash.

   Judging from the current international situation, the plan to secretly promote armed debt collection that was initially expected has also died at this time.

   Pius VII was very worried, and instead of suppressing the Alpha Kingdom, he was self-defeating, reducing the financial burden for the other party.

  …

  Jade Palace, looking at the diplomatic documents flying like snowflakes, Caesar IV showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.

  The content above is all criticism, protest, and condemnation. The strong words and the serious tone made him bloody.

  However, with so many condemnation documents, none of them stated that they would send troops to interfere!

  No actual action, only verbal condemnation, Caesar IV has no pressure at all.

   "How is the negotiation between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Kingdom of Hesse going?"

   Caesar IV asked concerned.

   After paying such a high price, how can we not reap enough benefits?

  Especially as a new king, Caesar IV, whose foundation is not yet solid, still needs to submit a satisfactory answer sheet.

   What is the prestige of the monarch?

   It is not a promise that is illusory, nor is it the courage to kill and kill decisively, but it can bring tangible benefits to everyone.

  The nobles are a group of realists. Only when they bring benefits to everyone can they gain everyone's sincere support.

   "Except for some minor details that need to be communicated later, we have already negotiated the general direction.

  According to the agreement, the Kingdom of Hesse will annex the Counties of Korubia. As compensation, the Kingdom of Hesse will forgive all our debts to them.

  Including the direct debts between the two governments, as well as the war bonds we sold in Hesse, totaling about 9.93 million gold coins.

  As for the debt relationship between us and the Cuban country, it will naturally be cleared together.

   According to preliminary estimates, the total amount of this part of the debt will not be less than six million gold coins. If you count the old accounts, the number will be even larger. "

   Earl Francis' words did not cause any waves. Although the country of Columbia is a small country, it has been a vassal of the Alpha Kingdom for a long time in the past.

  The boss is fighting in the front, how can the younger brother not show it. They don't need to lead people to fight on the battlefield in person, and money and food must be supported.

   Over time, a huge amount of foreign debt was owed. It's just that this creditor is easy to talk to, and he can delay paying back slowly.

  The current counties of Colombia will soon die. The creditors have been tossed away, and the debts naturally do not need to continue to be fulfilled.

  After this operation alone, the total debt of the Alpha Kingdom has dropped by nearly one-sixth from 100 million at its peak.

  This method of repaying debts is much easier than collecting taxes from nobles.

  The only regret is that this operation is a one-time operation. The deduction is still the book data, and no one has seen the cash.

"well!"

   After sighing, Caesar IV said helplessly: "Forget it, this time it will be cheaper for the Hessians. We will not get involved in the follow-up matters.

  Corubia's hundreds of years of accumulation, if we can get it, our financial pressure will definitely be greatly reduced. "

   "Your Majesty, the country of Korubia has been passed down for hundreds of years after all, even if it is annexed by the Kingdom of Hesse, it will not be digested for a while.

   Judging from the current situation, Louis Vuitton is not prepared to organize human resistance. This means that they have to take over all the nobles of Counties of Korubia.

  These people are hot potatoes.

   If these guys are not cleaned out, their annexation of Korubia will remain on paper.

  Killing these guys will cause turmoil in the noble world. Not to mention losing their national reputation, if they expand abroad in the future, they will be desperately resisted by everyone. "

  The prime minister, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland, tried to persuade him.

   Obviously, he has been frightened by Caesar IV's wild ideas. I am afraid that my own king will carve up Korubia with the Kingdom of Hesse regardless of the actual situation.

  Military, there is nothing wrong with doing this. The kings of the family are all badly placed, so one can imagine how weak the resistance will be.

   However, after taking Corubia, things became troublesome. Not only are the nobles difficult to deal with, but the kingdom's internal distribution of spoils is also difficult to handle.

   Pulling the domestic nobles to carve up together, the meat is obviously not enough. What's more, this newly annexed area with unstable borders is not suitable for splitting.

  If the royal family eats alone, the nobles in the country will definitely make trouble. If it is not done well, the throne of Caesar IV will be affected.

  Under this background, the best choice is to sell Korubia in exchange for a sum of cash to repay the kingdom's debts.

   "It's not that troublesome, they all chose to annex Korubia, and the Hessians don't care about food.

   Planting and framing this kind of thing, once there is the first time, there will be countless times. As long as the Hessians are willing, are they afraid that they will not find a chance to fabricate crimes?

   Just watch, the nobles of Corubia will soon be in bad luck.

   When the toss is almost over, that old guy Alexander V will come out to pretend to be a good person again, announce the pardon of these unlucky people, and restore their status.

  Of course, by that time, the nobles of the Counties of Korubia were almost dead. Individuals who survived can't afford to overturn any big waves. "

  Caesar IV had just finished speaking when he realized that everyone was looking at him wrongly. Conscience of heaven and earth, he is only deducing the next actions of the Kingdom of Hesse, definitely not what he intends to do.

   But at this time, it seems pointless to explain. Everyone had no hope at all for his integrity as a king.

  After all, such a sinister and vicious method is beyond the imagination of normal people.

   "Your Majesty, now that you have insight into the next plan of the Hessian Kingdom, then share it with the Hessians and let them add money!

  Corubia’s hundreds of years of accumulation, if all of them are found, it will not only be such a small amount of money.

   What's more, there are land, serfs, castles... so many industries, even if we only take part of them, we can sell tens of millions of gold coins.

  The kingdom is now in need of population to fill the northern provinces. If hundreds of thousands of people can be distributed, this development progress will definitely be greatly accelerated.

   If they refuse to pay, we will send troops to **** it. With the professional quality of the Kingdom Army, they will definitely grab more than them. "

   Grand Duke Afiero said unceremoniously.

  Originally, he, the Minister of Military Affairs, was firmly opposed to framing Korubia, but now that there are so many benefits, his position will inevitably be shaken.

  If enough benefits can be obtained from it, not only will the kingdom's financial pressure be greatly reduced, Caesar IV will also be able to establish prestige in the hearts of domestic nobles.

  Exchanging the kingdom's international image for the monarch's internal prestige, the pros and cons are hard to tell, but for the royal family, it is completely acceptable.

   "Dear Duke Efiero, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs is working hard to negotiate with the Hessians. It's just a matter of sending troops, it's better not to.

  Based on the current situation of the Kingdom’s army, no matter how much spoils they get, the Ministry of Finance will not be able to share much, and it may not even be enough for military expenses. "

   Earl Francis hurriedly blocked the way.

   Robbery by soldiers is too common in the continent of Aslante. This scene will appear in almost all foreign wars.

  Unfortunately, most of the stolen spoils were divided among the noble officers below. Even if there is another copy, it will be withheld by the military for various reasons.

   To expect to make a fortune from robbery, the army must first be severely rectified, and the concept of "everything seized and returned to the public" must be instilled in their minds.

  This kind of thing, just think about it secretly. In actual operation, there is no feasibility at all. The army of a joint-stock country is essentially pieced together.
