Chapter 380 (1/2)

In the spring of 964, the civil war broke out in the Loran continent, which had been a headache for the Empire for many years.

In order to win this victory, the Empire paid 14 million gold coins for the war. What bothered the military of the Empire was that after the war, the northwest Legion disappeared, and then there was another debate, that is, whether to rebuild the northwest Legion in the northwest of the Empire to guard the northwest border of the Empire.

In order to solve this problem, there was a large-scale dispute over the imperial court. Some people think that outside the northwest of the Empire, there are still prairie people. Although there are some civil strife on the grassland, the prairie people are savage and warlike, and they are greedy for wolves. In the northwest, it is necessary to station troops on a large scale to make people feel at ease.

People on the other side think that there is a tulip Duke in the northwest now, and the tulip Duke's territory, the province of Desa, is the border area. The tulip family already has tens of thousands of private troops, which is enough to serve as the important task of defending the imperial border.

For the sake of this issue, both sides argued endlessly. After all, the reconstruction of the northwest Corps is such an important matter, involving all kinds of interests. To rebuild a new Northwest legion, it is natural to promote a large number of senior generals and officers, especially those who hold great power. How many aristocrats in the Empire, many of them with military background, naturally move up and down. They hope to pass this resolution by all means, and hope that after the reconstruction of the northwest legion, they can let their family members get in and get high positions.

On the contrary, a group of imperial officials headed by the finance minister insisted that there was no need to set up a main army in the northwest. As far as grassland people are concerned, it is enough to have tulip Duke guarding the gate of the country. Moreover, the chancellor of the exchequer listed a series of figures, which showed that if the northwest army was to be rebuilt, the imperial finance would bear a huge burden. This year, a new landlord's army has been established, and an almost luxurious Kaspersky defense line has been established in the North... If we continue to carry on, even with the generous donation of the tulip Duke, the imperial finance will be in a serious crisis in the next few years.

”Storm Corps needs to be replenished. The new ”Thor's whip” corps has just been built, and the Kaspersky defense line is still in the process of finishing the project... The Treasury has no money now! Rebuilding the northwest army? It's crazy! ”

The chancellor of the exchequer was in the court, red faced and thick necked, and yelled at those who advocated reconstruction.

What is puzzling is that in this debate, as the ruler of the Empire, the Regent never said a word and showed any tendency. His silent performance makes people feel more profound. Many people on both sides of the dispute tried to find out the real thoughts of the Regent through various channels. Unfortunately, no matter they bribed the court waiters or not. It's also good to be an officer in the imperial army. The news is that the Regent never mentioned this problem when he returned to the Imperial Palace despite all the noise in the court. The only clue is. In recent days, the Regent has been in a very good mood in private. Even the news from the court came out that someone heard the Regent hiding in his room laughing wildly.

Chen Prince is really in a good mood, these days looking at those ministers quarrel, he actually does not care.

It's true that he's hiding in the room laughing.

To be exact, Prince Chen is in a very good mood now. I'm in a good mood. It comes from a top secret war report!!
