Chapter 1188, Wartime Cabinet
Latest URL: Ryan's proposal stunned everyone present.
War cabinet? What is this stuff?
Doesn't the cabinet already exist? Now another war cabinet? What means?
The eyes of Beria, Talleyrand and others were bright, and the bureaucrats looked at their Sun King with great anticipation.
Knight feudal, no!
Use literature to control martial arts, okay!
Especially the two guys, Talleyrand and Beria, Beria thought that if the wartime cabinet is established, with Ryan's trust in him, how much military supervision power he can get and how much prestige and power he can expand .
Among other things, during this period of time, Beria was simply in high spirits.
Recently, Beria led people to do many specific things about the resettlement of millions of refugees in Estalia. This bureaucrat not only gained a huge political reputation and greatly expanded his own in the whole process. The boundary of power has even completed a certain idea that he has always had - that is to establish a puppet regime and control a special department by himself. This department should enjoy a lot of power and be responsible only to Ryan.
As it happens, the Estalians do not trust the Bretanians, and due to some historical conflicts between the two sides, the Estalians have always suspected whether the Bretanians intend to embezzle the land that belongs to them (the fact is Knights and nobles really intended that), at this time Beria became the target of relative trust of the Estalians.
Few people can control the destiny of a nation as a foreigner like Beria, but Beria did it.
Therefore, Beria raised his hands in favor of Ryan's establishment of a wartime cabinet. The Ugol people are not afraid of offending people, and he is ready. As long as Ryan gives him a wink, he will immediately come out to charge.
But Talleyrand was different.
The cripple is not interested in Beria's crazy seizure of power. Taking advantage of this period of time, this cunning high elf hired a total of 73 beauties aged 14-18 from Estalia refugees to work in his luxurious manor.
Talleyrand also took advantage of the opportunity to make money crazily. During this period of time, he only spent about 3,700 gold crowns on the capital and part and housing, and obtained a total of 126 national treasures from the refugees in Estalia.
Crystals, paintings, tapestries, carpets, lamps, mirrors, pens, clocks, tableware,
Then Talleyrand also spent about 50,000 gold crowns to buy a box of "land deeds" and "house deeds" from the Estalians.
Of course, the money is not all Talleyrand's own money, it can only be said that he understands everything.
Ryan could only shake his head after hearing this. From a certain point of view, "annexation" is simply the instinct of mortals. This kind of historical trend, except for the founding emperor and the powerful centralized emperor like himself, almost no one can block.
Contrary to Beria, Talleyrand was unwilling to come out as a leader, and the high-spirited cripple just kept silent.
"May I ask your Majesty, what are the responsibilities of the wartime cabinet? Who will be the cabinet member? What is the main responsibility for handling?" Lawn, the representative of the knights and nobles, had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask: "There is already a cabinet, why should we set up a wartime cabinet?" ? What is the difference between wartime and peacetime? If not, why should it be added? If so, please tell your Majesty clearly."
This is kicking the ball back. Ryan was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "You have also seen the current situation. According to the defense plan previously arranged by the cabinet, Duke Adehad should defend the city rather than attack. , but he didn't obey orders, which led to this tragic victory."
"Therefore, I plan to establish a wartime cabinet. The wartime cabinet is the main organization for strategic command of the war. Now is the time of war. We need such an organization to solve the strategic problems we are facing now." Ryan said: "As for the candidates Initially, it will be me, Suria, Sir Behemond, Sir Lawn, Sir François, Sir Boderick, Sir Bertrand, and Sir Calade."
"Your Majesty, this is really unnecessary." Hagen, Duke of Gisole Oaks, spoke. Duke Hagen obviously disapproved of Ryan's decision, and he strode forward: "I think the existing cabinet is sufficient to deal with the current situation Now, setting up a wartime cabinet at this time is neither in line with our current national conditions in Brittania, nor in line with the national formation of our knight kingdom for thousands of years."
"I agree with Your Excellency Hagen's proposal." Theodoric, the Duke of Berleon, also disagreed. This guy shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the so-called strategy for war is capable of solving all strategic issues. Does it mean that we Do you want to abandon the glorious tradition of our knight kingdom and the basic national policy of our knights?"
"I don't agree either, Your Majesty." Ford, the Duke of Montfort, also stood up, shaking his head: "Your Majesty has already taken a lot from us."
"I don't agree either." Casson, the Duke of Palaion, also stood up, and his words were more gentle: "Your Majesty, we are willing to obey your orders and support you. You know this."
"Your Majesty, I also disagree." At this moment, Duke Bohemond also spoke, and the First Marshal shook his head: "Adehad underestimated the enemy, and no one will make such a mistake next time. .”
Seeing that everyone disagreed, the atmosphere in the room instantly cooled down.
Obviously, the knight nobles did not agree with Ryan's so-called "wartime cabinet" plan.
Everyone can see that Ryan is going to continue to take power. If the wartime cabinet is established, the knights and nobles will lose their original military power! All the armies of the entire kingdom will be unified under the name of the wartime cabinet, the aristocratic republic will be further eroded by Ryan, and the wartime cabinet will become a tool of Ryan's rule.
At this moment, thunder rumbled from far to near, roaring and rolling over the roof of Meiquan Garden, and then, a bright lightning flashed across the evening sky, and the originally bright magic lights in the room flickered on and off , seemed to be eclipsed for a while.
Ryan and Suria looked at each other, and the Primarch was silent.
Ryan did not expect that he would encounter such great resistance. The knights and nobles present, except for Francois and Callard who had passed the air in advance, almost collectively opposed the establishment of the war cabinet.
This is different from Ryan's piecemeal reforms before, and the establishment of the wartime cabinet means that Ryan will thoroughly penetrate the core interests of the knight nobles - military power, which cannot be tolerated by any knight nobles.
But this is what Ryan has to do.
What is Ryan like now? He is now a bit like an extremely enhanced version of the ancient great man Kong Yige. The knight kingdom is unified on the surface, and he obeys his orders, and the military groups in various places also submit.
But after all, it is still a military group, and after all, they are still doing their own things. The dukes are willing to lend the army to Ryan, and they are willing to listen to his orders. It is difficult for the nobles to agree no matter what.
There was thunder and lightning outside the house, and there was silence inside the house.
"Then, is it worth accepting another such tragic victory of the Duke? Is it worth accepting another defeat?" Beria came out to fight the knights and nobles, and the Ugol man said seriously: "When will Now, the Yankees have touched our shores, Kislev has fallen, the Empire is beset by the undead of Sylvania within its borders, Estalia is dying, and Lucini of Tyrell And Rimas are still resisting, it's this time, are you still unwilling to accept His Majesty's wise leadership?"
"What!" Duke Ford directly came up and scolded: "You don't have a place to speak here, Ugor people, get out!"
Beria's face was flushed, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing. He continued: "Your Excellency Ford, I respect you very much, but please put forward your own point of view. This is an imperial meeting, and you are using personal attacks and racial discrimination to withdraw money from you." views and chivalrous virtues?"
Duke Ford was trembling with anger. He started to search his pockets, trying to find white gloves, but was stopped by Francois.
"Hey! Ford! This is the imperial meeting, let people speak!" Francois immediately scolded: "Belia is a knight of the Kingdom of Britannia, and also a courtier of His Majesty. He is qualified to participate in the meeting. You Why tell him to get out!"
"It's because he doesn't understand the rules of our knight kingdom at all!" Duke Ford said sharply: "Do you know what a knight is? Do you understand how our country was established in Brittany? Do you know how we have survived for thousands of years?" Is it true? The law of the ancestors cannot be abolished. If the wartime cabinet is finalized, in a year or two, won’t even the nobles be needed?! Only you bureaucrats are left?!”
Duke Casson also disagreed, and Duke Palaion pulled Ford down: "That's enough, Ford, calm down."
Then he gave a knight salute to Ryan: "Enough, Your Majesty, enough."
Duke Bohemond also shook his head: "Your Majesty, although the war between Sylvania and Kislev has not stopped, hasn't the empire won? If we win, what else do we need?"
Everyone nodded, Jihad in Sylvania? Isn't it victory? The undead are trapped by the Great Wall of Faith, still thinking about war?
Northern barbarians? Wasn't Wielic's Sorcerer's Legion defeated by Ludenhof, the Grand Baron and Elector of Hawkland?
As for Estalia, the Skaven is indeed a problem, but it is not to the extent that a wartime cabinet needs to be unified and planned!
"Boom!" There was a thunderbolt outside the house, and there were constant quarrels inside the house.
The resistance in front of him was so great that Ryan felt a splitting headache. To deal with the final moment, there must be a unified command and a strong army.
Many people may think that Ryan is a demigod now, so why should he consider the army? Go up!
To be reasonable, there is one thing to say, the demigod is indeed very strong, but it is not enough to ignore the number of troops.
Why else would the Emperor create the Thunder Warriors, Space Marines and Emperor's Custodians?
Otherwise, why did Fulgen form the Legion of Ashes as soon as he arrived in Lustria?
Otherwise, why did Acha form an army to destroy the world?
The main reason is that demigods are not invincible, reality is not a game, oh, after being promoted to demigod, the armor value will be full, the blood bar will be thicker, and others will not be able to beat you.
It doesn't exist, it doesn't exist, demigods are indeed harder to kill than ordinary people, stronger in defense, and better at one-to-many, one person has the ability to destroy a small army, but he still needs an army Those who support them still need to be protected. Even if they are strong in the sanctuary and demigods, if they are not careful, a mortal will be seriously injured if they do not die with a precise headshot of a firecracker.
Middenheim's artillery once killed a demon prince with a single accurate burst shell.
The Nur Iron Armored Army once shot a giant dragon with a salvo.
In the Battle of Wolfen, although the Oster army suffered heavy casualties, it also defeated the Great Demon of Nurgle.
Moreover, mortals can kill gods in the true sense. With the disintegration of the great guardian and the maelstrom, mortals will also get back everything they should have originally, and their power will become complete. If gods are killed by mortals in the mortal world Die, then really die.
As for why Ryan dared to show up without wearing armor before, the reason is very simple. People are cheap. He dared because he has a hole card. He has the special ability of Forgotten Shadow. I really want to try the experience of changing positions instantly .
Another thunderclap disturbed the sky outside the Palace of Fontainebleau, dark clouds rolled, and the terrible autumn rain immediately poured down, crashing, overwhelming the quarrel in the courtyard, and the strong wind blew through the glazed windows, and the curtains in the house Float with the wind.
Suria shook her head slightly at Ryan, signaling that he was impatient and that it was not time yet.
Seeing this, Ryan calmly asked Lawn, "Miss Lawn, what's your opinion?"
Lawn also calmed down. The regent of the kingdom knelt down on one knee and whispered to the king: "If your majesty insists on establishing a wartime cabinet, please issue an edict!"
The wind howled, the thunder rolled, and the thunder light illuminated the faces of everyone in the house.
"Excuse me, Ron Leo Cornwall, if there is no order!"
Ryan stared closely at Lawn, and Lawn raised his head to look directly into Ryan's blue eyes.
"Let the gods return to the gods, and the mortals to the mortals, Your Majesty." Duke Hagen also knelt on one knee: "If Your Majesty insists on this, please issue an order!"
"Your Majesty, please issue an order!!!" Except for François and Callard, almost all the knights and nobles knelt down.
There was another thunder!
Ryan's face was livid, and he was already in a dilemma.
If he retreats at this time, it will greatly damage his prestige. The knights and nobles can force the palace once, twice, and naturally three times, four times!
If he forcibly issues the decree at this time, it will break the law that has been established since the creation of the world by Asuryan, the lord of the Phoenix!
If Ryan refuses to issue the Edict and forms his own war cabinet, Brittania can now prepare for civil war!
Civil war at this time?
The Sun King couldn't help clenching his fists tightly. After all, human beings are such creatures. They don't look back until they bump into the south wall, and they don't cry when they see the coffin. Before the chaos hits the door, no one will completely abandon all past prejudices ,Unite.
For thousands of years, the only lesson humans have learned is never to learn!
what to do?
