Chapter 306 Reselling Strategic Materials
Lutetia, Human Race Alliance Council.The atmosphere in the venue at this moment is very strange.

The front-line coalition forces cut first and then played, which really gave them a blow to the head.The game doesn't play like this, they are the highest authority of the human race!

Councilors don't need to care about the ups and downs of the outside world, the human race has enough strength to withstand the wind and rain.But the backstab of one's own people, then there is no way.

The result of the anonymous vote was unanimously approved. It was simply telling them that the generals on the front line all supported the recruitment of mercenaries.

Anyway, there must be a few negative votes, so let's have a little fun!

Especially those who kept saying no, why did they also vote for it when it came to the final vote?
It can only be said that benefits can make people "concern".In order to ensure the smooth passage of the resolution, everyone tacitly left the opportunity to vote against it to others.

veto?

Just think about it.The announcement has been sent out, and if it is retracted at this time, isn't it telling the outside world that the Alliance Council and the Alliance Army are not of one mind?

Accountability does not exist.

In name, the Alliance Council has more power, but in fact, their binding force on the frontline coalition forces is just that.

The status of most of the congressmen among their respective forces is not comparable to that of the army commander sent to the front line.After all, the congressman is just an agent, and the coach himself is a powerful nobleman.

We are all colleagues, if there is a quarrel, it will be hard to see each other when we go back.But as the highest authority, they have to say nothing.

It's not just the congressmen who are embarrassed, Charles III is also a headache.As the meeting initiator of the host, he disappeared directly from the venue this time.

Everyone is responsible, which is equivalent to no responsibility.Everyone sat there staring at each other, no one was willing to speak first and pierce the window paper.

"Everyone, the news has spread all over the continent, even if you want to take it back, it's too late. Why don't we directly discuss how to deal with the aftermath.

For example: clarify the time limit for the reward; or determine the criteria for the recognition of military exploits..."

Earl Predrag suggested with a little embarrassment.

Although it is said that the law does not blame the public, the instigator is the Alpha Kingdom.If it weren't for Hudson's backlash, the coalition generals on the front line would not have realized so quickly the hidden benefits that could be brought by recruiting mercenaries to join the war.

Fight a battle and receive two military merits.From now on, there is a high probability that it will become the norm.

Perhaps the subsequent battle reports of the coalition forces will all capture the area and wipe out tens of thousands of enemies, all of which will be blurred, and the specific orc races will no longer be refined.

On the other side, the records of the mercenaries are all beheading Beamon's head and beheading bears...

Although the verification of military achievements is still strict, it is still people who carry out the specific implementation.Driven by interests, things about pretending to be military leaders will become endless.

Fortunately, the nobles on the front line still have a bit of integrity, and did not include the ordinary orc race in the scope of rewards, otherwise the Terran Alliance might go bankrupt.

Don't look at the mercenaries who are running to the front now. In fact, there are still many nobles of the human race who are also watching. As long as the Alliance Council does not object, they will also take part in the "hunting" with private troops.

"Earl Predrag is right, things have happened, we can only face reality.

But in addition to considering the aftermath, we must also put a cage on the coalition forces on the front line, and we cannot allow them to toss around wantonly.

Otherwise, similar things will continue to emerge one after another! "

Count Djortevich said with a solemn expression.

Apparently, he has realized the danger of "below defeating the above", and wants the alliance parliament to strengthen the binding force on the frontline coalition forces.

"Count Jordevich, the aftermath is easy to deal with, but the management of the coalition forces still needs to be considered in the long term. It is best for the major forces to strengthen their own constraints on their own armies!"

Bishop Montesson resolutely objected.

The harm of the next attack is huge, but the harm of letting people intervene in the command of the Holy See's troops on the front line is also not too much.

In the Alliance Parliament, the royal faction has the upper hand.Once the parliament has command over the front-line troops, it will be logical to strengthen the authority of the coalition command and appoint the commander of the coalition.

This means that the life and death of the Holy See troops on the front line must be handed over to the royal power faction.What will happen next, no one can guarantee.

In short, the casualties of the Holy See army will certainly increase day by day.Even if the entire army is destroyed, it is not impossible.

What's worse is that once a precedent is set for this kind of thing and it proves that these operations are indeed effective, the old practice will be followed in the future.

……

Time flies, and it is the end of the year again.The flames of war are still burning in the North Continent, and there is no sign of stopping.

With the joining of a large number of mercenaries, the battle on the front line has become more intense.No one can tell the exact loss of the human race, but the number of orc royals killed has exploded compared to a few months ago.

People's potential is all forced out. Under the temptation of profit, Hudson was stunned to see the various showy operations of the "mercenaries".

"Poisoning", "cursing", "natural disasters of the undead", "summoning evil gods"... all kinds of unscrupulous methods, only unexpected and impossible.

All kinds of combat methods have repeatedly broken the bottom line.The rules are that there are no rules, as long as you can kill the orcs, do it.

Compared with the decisive battle with the main force of the orcs, most of the mercenaries extended their black hands to the orc tribes, and the hunting targets were directly aimed at the old and weak with low combat effectiveness.

They didn't massacre women and children, it's not that they have integrity, mainly because the price of selling slaves is higher than the reward price offered by the coalition forces.

What surprised Hudson the most was that the "mercenary regiment" with the highest results was not a real mercenary, but the vest of the frontline coalition forces.

It's no big deal to use a vest trumpet for dirty work.But anyway, I have to cover it up. Hearing the names of those domineering mercenary regiments, Hudson was very speechless.

For example: "Holy Invincible Mercenary Group".

Upon hearing the name, Hudson knew it was a trumpet issued by the Holy See.Ninety-ninety percent of the organizations on the mainland that can be crowned with sacred titles are branches of the Holy See.

Another example: "The First Kingdom Mercenary Group in the Mainland".

The symbol is so obvious, it can only be their own trumpet if they have not been approached by the Frankish Kingdom to pursue the infringement responsibility.

……

Almost all vest mercenary regiments of the coalition army can be judged intuitively by their names.

A family's tossing may be a show, but if everyone makes such a toss together, it can only be a benefit.

Playing like this, the appearance of eating is indeed a bit ugly, and it does not match the spirit preached by the nobles.But it is also conducive to everyone's identification and avoids many unnecessary conflicts.

Not surprisingly, the mercenary regiments with the highest record are all vests of powerful forces.

Except for the absence of a few unlucky ones from the Northern Xinjiang region, the rest of the powerful clans are all on the list.

The ranking is basically equal to the status of the major forces among the human race.Hudson didn't find a "real mercenary group" until he was over fifty.

It is a pity that after sending someone to investigate, it was discovered that the vest was worn by a nobleman again.It's just that this vest is not opened now, but has existed many years ago.

If you want to study carefully, you will find that the mercenary regiments and chambers of commerce of a slightly higher level on the mainland can find the figures of great nobles behind them.

Grassroots rise does exist, but after it has developed to a certain level, it will inevitably be incorporated.

This is the sequelae of knowledge monopoly.In the absence of education, it is difficult for ordinary people to play with those old foxes.

Originally, Hudson wanted to take the opportunity to pick up a few potential mercenary regiments and secretly earn them under his command, but now he is still too young.

People do things like this all the time.On the surface, all of them are full of arrogance. They look down on civil armed groups like mercenaries, and they are secretly recruited more aggressively.

For the mercenary groups that show a little bit of potential, there will always be one or more nobles behind them, who will become their behind-the-scenes shareholders.

When Hudson noticed them, all of them were famous.Breaking the rules of the game for the sake of a mercenary regiment is obviously not worth the candle.

I can't afford to mix, and Hudson doesn't force it.I simply started salted fish, providing logistics supplies for everyone with peace of mind, and by the way, I also started a small business part-time.

Gold diggers can make money, and businessmen who provide services to gold diggers can also make money.

Although these transactions were successfully completed through cooperation with the chamber of commerce, it did not affect Hudson's distribution of money.

The only trouble is that after entering the mountainous area to fight, the loss rate of logistics materials during transportation has skyrocketed, which has aroused close attention from all parties.

Fortunately, with the help of orcs, every once in a while, there will always be a transport convoy attacked, resulting in heavy losses of logistics materials for the coalition forces.

If you don't believe me, you can check the account.All the inbound data and outbound data can be matched.All losses are also traceable.

……

"Hudson, something is wrong! The Locknard family reported to the Alliance Council that you were reselling strategic materials, and the Alliance and the Kingdom sent investigation teams at the same time.

They will arrive at the front line in a few days to check the strategic material consumption of the army, so hurry up and deal with the accounts at hand! "

Hudson was slightly taken aback by the news brought by Viscount Oran.The enemy chose to attack so quickly, and he was too impatient.

Escorting logistics supplies these days is a serious chore.It is also an unspoken rule for the transport team to gain benefits from it. As long as it does not go too far, no one will care at all.

However, I am most afraid of being truthful in everything. Once someone comes forward and reports by real name, it will be a big stain.

Whether it can be fatal or not depends purely on the amount of greedy supplies.Generally speaking, as long as the gap is not too large, accounts can be balanced.

It is inevitable that Hudson's recent business has been booming and attracted the attention of interested people.

It's just that he couldn't understand why the Lochnard family was so impatient, and jumped out to make trouble before the war was over.

Especially reporting directly to the Alliance Council is a violation of the rules.Even if he could get him down this time, it would be a slap in the face of the king.

Originally, the relationship between Caesar III and the nobles of the Northlands was tense, but now that something like this happened, wouldn't it be rubbing the king's face on the ground?

Not only the king, but also the nobles of the entire Alpha Kingdom will be ashamed.Under normal circumstances, when encountering such a thing, everyone would choose to close the door and deal with it by themselves.

"Your Excellency, Viscount, don't worry! They can't find anything. If the investigation team really comes, it will only be the nobles of the Northland themselves.

Counting the loss of food and grass transported by the nobles in various places, it is the largest loss in their hands.Even if the accounts are done well, there will be problems.

If we really get to the bottom of it, all the big nobles on the front line will be more or less implicated.

However, Duke Pias is not a fool. He would rather take the risk of offending many nobles in the kingdom to lift the cover at this time. There must be other forces behind it.

Just wait and see, I think the next story will be very exciting! "

Hudson said with a sneer.

There is no doubt that this report had a great impact on him.Even if the problem cannot be found, it will cause Hudson's reputation to be greatly damaged.

After all, there are millions of officers and soldiers in charge of transporting grain and grass. As long as they dig down, someone will definitely be caught.

A charge of poor supervision, Hudson is destined to be unable to escape.Before that, he was not completely unprepared.

Especially after the Duke of Cavadia showed his ambition, most of the dirty work hidden in the escort mission fell on the northern nobles.

This is also the direct cause of the highest loss rate of their transportation materials.

Once the investigation team arrives, the Northland nobles who have the most supplies will definitely be the focus of the review.

Originally thought that with such constraints, they could be restrained, but they didn't expect that something would happen in the end.

The typical "kill one thousand enemies, self-damage eight hundred" style of play.If we really want to investigate in depth, Hudson has a hard time, and the nobles of the Northland can't hide from it either.

Even if the five dukes didn't reach out, who can guarantee that their clansmen and younger brothers didn't reach out?

"Hudson, are you sure there is no problem?"

Viscount Oran asked with concern.

He knew that in recent days, Hudson secretly sold a lot of strategic materials and made a lot of money.

Although the chamber of commerce is responsible for the implementation, the inside story behind these cannot be hidden from the eyes of the nobles.

"Don't worry, Viscount, some of the strategic materials that flowed out were transported by me from the rear, and some were the spoils I bought from the coalition forces some time ago.

Even the relevant transaction certificates are kept in my hands.No matter how the investigation team investigates, I didn't reach out to the army's strategic materials! "

Hudson said calmly.

Obviously, these words were not only intended for Viscount Oran, but also for all the nobles in the army.

Reselling strategic materials is a fact, and there must be a reasonable statement about the source of the materials.

After all, the crime of corrupting ink and reselling strategic materials is not a light one, and Hudson does not want to bear the injustice.

In many cases, the true and the false can be confused under the public opinion.He also needs someone to speak up and prove that this is not true.
