Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

At the same time, General von Cassi entered the palace in a hurry and hurriedly. After many twists and turns, he came before the king. He knelt on one knee, raised the letter high with both hands and handed it to him.

The king's brows were tightly knitted into a "川" shape, his face was full of worry and anxiety, and he said in a deep voice:

"Why did you check the accounts right after taking office? Isn't this going to cause trouble?"

The king took the letter, pursed his lips, and patiently read it word by word. His face instantly became solemn and gloomy, like a dark cloud.

He first tapped the armrest of the throne with his fingers, his heart was in a mess. He thought: "Why is Tan Aili so rash to check the military supply account right away?

These are all businesses of the noble branches. If they are touched, it will definitely cause an uproar. The nobles in the capital will probably be in a turmoil. But if we ignore it and the corruption problem in the army is not solved, how can we defend the country in the future? This is really a dilemma!"

Then the king crossed his arms, frowned, shook his head and sighed:

“These military supply suppliers are all branches of the nobility, with a complicated network of relationships. If anything, all the dukes and earls in the capital will be implicated.

The conflict of interests behind this is like an invisible web. If you are not careful, it will cause turmoil in the aristocratic circle, and people will be in panic, and it is hard to predict whether it will be a blessing or a curse. "

The more the king thought about it, the more helpless he felt. He could not help but frown like a knot that could not be untied. He paced back and forth in front of the throne in annoyance. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heart was full of contradictions and entanglements:

"Tan Aili, Tan Aili, you are throwing the problem directly in front of me. If I deal with these nobles, it will inevitably lead to their resentment and revenge, and it may even affect the status of the royal family.

But if we don’t deal with it, the corruption problem in the military cannot be eradicated, and how can we ensure the safety of the country? "

"Your marshal has given me a difficult problem. This matter seems difficult to handle!" The king shook his head and sighed, his face full of annoyance and entanglement. His right hand kept rubbing his temple vigorously, and his eyes were full of bloodshot.

Feng Kaxi stood up and raised his head, his eyes were as firm as a burning flame, and he said neither humbly nor arrogantly:

"My marshal is setting out to offer sacrifices to the flag, and he is short of these few heads. Your Majesty, please send them as soon as possible. If we don't see the prisoners by tomorrow evening, we will resign and leave. Such an army cannot win a battle..."

As he spoke, he clenched his fists, his expression serious and determined, with an unquestionable light flashing in his eyes.

After saying this, General von Carthy saluted solemnly again and said no more.

He turned around resolutely and walked out of the hall. His straight back revealed a resolute aura, leaving the king and the civil and military officials standing there in a daze.

The king had a solemn look on his face, and his dull eyes showed hesitation. The civil and military ministers all looked terrified and were whispering to each other.

The king pondered for a moment, and finally waved his hand, making up his mind, with a gleam of determination in his eyes:

"Come here, mobilize the Royal Knights to search the houses according to the list. Send the heads of the houses and the nobles to the military camps. The civil and military officials will be stationed in the other courtyards. They are not allowed to leave the palace for the next few days to prevent the news from leaking out."

The king then thought to himself: "Forget it, for the long-term interests of the country, I have to offend these nobles temporarily. I hope that this operation will go smoothly, calm the storm, and reorganize the army."

The seven major families in the capital were raided without going through any legal procedures. Everything was done quickly and the king personally took charge of it, so the Royal Knights took the initiative to avoid suspicion. Those who were related to them took the initiative to be confined in the dormitory, otherwise they would be punished together with them.

The troops were divided into seven groups to search homes and arrest people. Family members were demoted to civilians on the spot and exiled to the border as slaves.

The series of actions had to be completed within one day. There were a total of 21 main criminals with titles. They did not have to be taken to the palace to plead guilty, but were directly escorted to the military camp.

This is also the greatest support the king gives to Tan Aili, in order to establish his authority, and he hopes that she can make a career.

Tan Aili and the nobles are sworn enemies. From this perspective, this is exactly what the king wants. He is afraid that the nobles are like iron barrels...

Relying on the king's support, she chose to fight against the declining old nobles. It would be a huge profit, so she maximized her interests. Who do they think they are?

He holds the military power in his hands and is not afraid of offending others even if it means death.

This new leader is set to take over, and before he leaves, the capital needs a decent show of authority - this is exactly what the king wants, so there are no taboos.

The next day at noon - Western Suburbs Camp.

Among the seven major families, the twenty-one main criminals with titles were now sitting in prison cars that showed off their former noble status, and were slowly being escorted into the camp.

A loud horn suddenly sounded, like thunder breaking through the sky, shaking the entire camp.

The entire army assembled quickly and completed the raid in just ten minutes. Even the 50,000 auxiliary troops, veterinarians and civilian workers were all lined up. Their movements were uniform and neat, instantly presenting a neat military appearance.

Although corruption in the army was rampant and spreading like mold in the dark, the training of the Imperial Guards was always completed without fail.

Because of this, the army looked majestic and impressive at the moment, which was awe-inspiring. However, in sharp contrast, the generals were all nervous and embarrassed. It was obvious that the moment had come when they had to show their cards.

If it is not absolutely necessary, they really do not want to rebel. After all, their families are in the capital, and they know that once they start a rebellion, everything they have now will be gone.

Moreover, there are at least 80,000 friendly troops around. If we rashly start an uprising today, there will be no turning back. It is destined to be a bloody battle for survival. In the end, not only is the probability of winning extremely small, but we will also become a traitor who is condemned by thousands of people and end up in disgrace.

All the generals looked heavy-hearted, as if they were weighed down by lead, and all of them looked at the general...

Because as long as the general raised his arm to call, they would respond regardless of their reservations. After all, at this moment, it seemed that this was the only way for them to survive, full of danger and with a high risk of death.

Bryony arrived late and finally stood at the stage. Her robe fluttered in the wind, and she looked around the entire army, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Looking around, there was a dark mass in front of me, full of soldiers ready for battle. The solemn atmosphere seemed to be suffocating.

When Tan Aili saw Blainey, she just nodded slightly.

At the command, the prison van was taken into the playground.

The executioners behind were all strong and sturdy men, each carrying a long-handled axe and following closely.

They all stood solemnly behind the prison van, their eyes firm and not looking away.

At this time, the drunkard Lubili was carrying a bag of heavy gold coins and distributing bonuses to the executioners one by one, five gold coins to each person, and saying a few words of encouragement.

This made the heavy infantry knights who were temporarily acting as executioners overjoyed, and in fact the joy in their hearts was like fireworks.

But he had to keep a straight face and force himself not to show it, which also showed the majesty of the executioner.
