Chapter 47 Election of District Chief Executive (1)

Davos looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Haka in the front row, with a few smiles on his face as a greeting, and then nodded to Antaoris.

"Clang!" Antaoris rang the small bronze bell on the table, and then the ceremonial officer in front of him shouted: "The meeting begins! (In the past, the rotating chairman called the call, but there are more and more elders, all the It is a very laborious and laborious thing to shout to them in the face of the sky, and the five rotating chairmen are all older, and it happened several times that the rotating chairperson shouted hoarse and tired at the end of the meeting, so it was later changed to a young etiquette. officer took over the job).

Antaoris cleared his throat and said loudly: "The bill proposed by His Majesty to 'divide the kingdom into nineteen regions' has been passed, and the main issue today is that we should elect the chief executives of these regions. .

As the Roman region, southern Iberia, and western Sicily are located on the borders of the kingdom, the situation is complicated and the situation is relatively bad. For the security of the kingdom, special candidates have been identified. Bagul was prefect of southern Iberia, Antonios prefect of western Sicily—"

There was a little commotion in the venue. Davos had not confirmed the candidate for the chief executive of the western region of Sicily. Some people may still have expectations, but when they heard that it was Antonios, they immediately lost their temper.

Although Antonios had made mistakes in the past, he served for many years as the administrator of the important towns of the kingdom, and during the Western Mediterranean War, as the wartime governor of the Downey region, he will be the newly conquered Road that has been invaded by the Samonites. It is not an easy task to firmly control the Nepal region, which shows its excellent governance ability. In addition, he once served as a senior general in the army, with outstanding achievements and high qualifications, so no one raised any objection to this.

"The rest of the regional chief executives are selected by the elders in accordance with the previous rules for the selection of chief executives." Antaoris paused and continued: "However, when recommending candidates, there is a principle that must be followed. People must have more than four years of experience as a town administrator!"

This rule was negotiated and determined by the elders in the last meeting, mainly to ensure that the elders who were elected as regional chief executives have sufficient administrative management experience. Of course, it also excludes those who became elders of Dionia after the Western Mediterranean War. The possibility of a person wanting to be a district chief.

No matter how regretful some people are, Antaoris raised his voice and continued: "I announce the start of the election of the regional administrator! First of all, the first region to be elected is the Corsica region, do you have anyone to choose? "

In fact, there is only one town in Corsica, Alenia, and eight or nine settlements with only a few hundred people. In terms of population and land area, it is not only far less than Crotone, The big cities like Cosenza and Catanay are not as good as even the medium-sized towns like Siritin, Crimisa, Udière, etc.

But after it was divided into a region by Davos, this small half-island became more important in the eyes of some elders. After all, it was a region no matter how small it was.

The etiquette officer glanced at the venue. Among the eight elders who raised their hands, he chose the oldest one (this is also the new rule implemented by the Senate in recent years. During the meeting, the elders could not stand up and speak at will. Hands must be raised, and the etiquette officer will call out according to their age and seniority, which can avoid confusion in the venue to the greatest extent and improve efficiency): "Lord Stromboli!"

Stromboli stood up and said slowly: "I recommend Philocrates. Although he is relatively young, he has rich experience in government affairs. He once served as a scribe in the household registration department of the kingdom. Oh, that was still in the Dionysian Union. At that time, it should not be called a kingdom..." Stromboli deliberately emphasized the qualifications of the recommended candidates: "Court recorder, official of the Ministry of Construction... Administrator of Castellón, Administrator of St. Ibinia.

Although he served as town administrator for only 5 years, he was the only kingdom administrator in the kingdom to govern a metal smelting center for a long time, and during the four years he governed St. Ibinia, its metal production and quality were Year by year, I have been commended by His Majesty—”

When he said this, he also stretched out his left hand and led to Davos in the center of the field.

Davers neither denied nor nodded to confirm. After all, he had promised not to interfere in the election of the regional chief executive, so he had to try his best to keep calm and not let his random actions mislead the elders in the field.

"For a region like Corsica that is also dominated by metal smelting, I think Philocrates is the best candidate!" Stromboli looked around and finished the last sentence with great confidence.

Among the seven elders who raised their hands just now, five of them quietly lowered their arms, not because they thought Philocrates was indeed the best candidate for the Corsica regional administrator, but because they were from Stromboll. In his words, he felt his determination to support Philocrates.

Stromboli was the head of the Amendolara faction of the Senate after Cornerus. Amendolara was only a small town with a small population, but it held an important position in the kingdom of Dionia. Because it was the first town occupied by King Daphus after his mercenary army came to Greater Greece, the early citizens of Amendolara played an important role in the development of the entire Dionysian kingdom, such as Corneiro Stromboli, Terry Todmus, and Protesilus all occupied an important position in the Senate.

Although Scommbras, Cornerus, and Protesilus have all passed away, the Amendolaras were the first to enter the kingdom's political arena, and the elders such as Stromboli loved it. Amendolara's underdogs, who have really joined the kingdom's politics from a young age and have been gradually promoted to elders, have accounted for a large proportion of them.

What is more noteworthy is that more than half of the mercenaries at that time settled in Amendolara, and many of them married Amendolara women, and even adopted many Amendolara orphans as adopted children, so some military veterans can also Said to be the Amendolaras, they will firmly support the proposal of the Amendolara elders if there is no conflict of interest and no special instructions from Davos.

In addition, because the Amendolaras joined Dionia the first time, they had a good relationship with the elders of other factions after a long period of contact, especially the mild-mannered Cornerus who helped many people.

Therefore, these elders felt that they could not compete with the massive Amendolara faction, so they gave up in order to avoid offending the old man who guarded his shortcomings.

But Stromboli was not relieved, because he heard the ceremonial officer shout: "Lord Vespa!"

This old guy! Stromboli watched Weisba stand up trembling not far away, and couldn't help but curse.

Since Vespas resigned from the position of rotating chairman, he seldom attends the Senate meeting because of his old age and frailty. This is his reappearance at the meeting within half a year, obviously he is prepared.

"I recommend Damabas. Although he is relatively young among the elders, he has a lot of seniority in Dionysian politics. Not long after His Majesty arrived in Italy, he became a soldier under His Majesty's command when he was only 17 years old. , made a lot of military exploits in the battle of capturing Neutum and repelling Crotone, but he had to retire from the army due to being wounded in the battle of capturing Grumentum, and turned to administration... …

We all know that before Corsi, Sardinia, southern Iberia and a small part of Etruria belonged to the kingdom, there were two main metal deposits in the kingdom - the copper mines of Turii and the Gru Iron mines in the mountains west of Mentum.

Damabas served as the head of the iron ore mine for 5 years, one year more than Philocrates. He has rich experience in managing mines. The kingdom provided enough iron ore and preliminary smelted iron ingots to ensure that our army soldiers could have a large number of relatively cheap weapons, which contributed to the expansion of the kingdom. "

Speaking of which, Vespa coughed a few times, looked at Stromboli, his expression was calm, but his words were aggressive: "I believe that to be the regional administrator of Corsica, you must not only have the ability to manage the mines, but also You must also have a strong ability to govern and assimilate aliens! You must know that half of the city of Alenia is Phoenician, and a small half of the territory north of Corsica is occupied by Etruscans, so it is necessary to The new regional administrator can manage relations with our immediate neighbors and allies, the Etruscans.

Damabas served as the chief executive of Poseidonia for three years, and the chief executive of Pompeii for three years. His political achievements were recognized by the elders, and the people of these two towns were diverse and close to the allies (Poland). The territory of Sedonia borders on the northeast of the territory of Abenerum in the Samonay Mountains. When Damabas first took office as its chief executive, the war in the Western Mediterranean had just begun, and Abenerum was only Dionia. Allies, not Dominions), Damabas handled it well, so I think he's the perfect candidate for Corsica's prefect! "

It sounds like Vespa's list of reasons is more adequate, but his volume is not enough, and his articulation is not clear enough. This is his usual problem. Not only has it not changed, but it has become more serious, so the effect of speaking has weakened a lot. .
