Chapter 234: Checks and Balances
The Dukes of the West and North had pledged allegiance to Field before the establishment of the Kingdom of Apocalypse.
It was neither reasonable nor proper to reduce the Duke's territory.
Anderson and the Garcia family joined in halfway, so Field did not need to consider the relationship.
It was necessary to reduce the territory. At most, the Kingdom could form a corps to guard the border, and there was no need for a powerful Duke to guard it.
But considering human nature, Field came up with a good way to both reward meritorious service and restrain the Duke of the fiefdom!
Each province was divided into three parts, one of which was managed by the six-department system established by the Kingdom's governor.
One part was granted to a small noble with outstanding merits, and the last part was naturally the territory granted to the Duke!
In the past, nearly half of each fiefdom province was the Duke's territory, and the other half was the territory of the Marquis and below.
In a province, the Duke was the only one in power! The rest of the nobles would be vassals of the Duke.
On the surface, the Duke of the fiefdom only controlled half of the province, but in fact, he controlled the entire province!
After the province is divided into three, the Duke will no longer be the only one in the province!
The governor and the six officials directly appointed by the kingdom will weigh the power with the Duke, and the small nobles will not lean towards the Duke!
In this way, it can not only ensure that the duke of the fiefdom will not become bigger and stronger, but also allow those with outstanding merits to have fiefdoms, so as not to make the meritorious ministers feel disappointed, killing two birds with one stone!
Field thought secretly, and the feather pen in his hand wrote subconsciously.
A line of crooked fonts was left on Engelbert Anderson's letter.
Field looked down, put down the feather pen, and the plan in his mind was determined.
"Let's do it! After Engelbert Anderson and Vargas Garcia pledge allegiance, reduce their territorial area!"
"The current priority is how to take over the loyalty of Anderson and Garcia before the Kingdom of Betas notices it!"
Field knocked on the table with complicated thoughts, making a series of low sounds.
After a moment, the rustling sound of the feather pen scratching across the paper replaced the banging sound in the study and disappeared.
"Bismarck!"
"King, what do you want?"
"Give this letter to the Intelligence Department and have it sent to the Glorious Infantry Corps and to Commander Bruna!"
As he spoke, Bismarck took the letter, nodded slightly, and turned away.
At the same time, three letters with important contents were secretly sent from the Apocalypse King City to the Principality of Anderson, the Principality of Garcia, and the Glorious Infantry Corps.
...
The Glorious Corps' garrison.
"Go down!"
The knight turned and left the tent after hearing this!
"A letter from the king?" Taylor asked.
Bruna nodded slightly and said, "Secret letter!"
Bruna looked around, and the generals of the corps all left the tent at the same time.
Soon, only the three corps commanders were left in the tent.
York stared at the letter in Bruna's hand that had not been opened yet, and asked curiously: "What's the matter? You are so careful?"
"Won't you know if you open it and take a look?" Taylor, who was also curious, echoed.
Move the wax away and take out the letter inside the letter.
Taylor and York opened their eyes wide and carefully scanned every word in the letter.
Bruna's mouth corners gradually rose.
Taylor and York's eyes also revealed unexpected joy.
After reading the letter, Taylor said: "Anderson Principality and Garcia Principality, are you going to be loyal to the Kingdom of Apocalypse?"
"It is clearly written in the letter that we should secretly enter the territory of Anderson and Garcia Principality. Engelbert and Vargas are quite sensible!"
Taylor smiled and said: "It's not good to be sensible! The Glorious Legion is coming for them, isn't it?"
As soon as the voice fell, York and Terra smiled at each other.
Bruna beside him remained silent, and the corners of his mouth that had just been slightly raised returned to normal.
"Bruna Corps Commander, what are you thinking about?"
Bruna sat back in his seat and said: "Do you remember a sentence in the Primary Education College?"
"What?"
"Warfare is the way of deception!"
York immediately fell into deep thought after hearing this.
Terra glanced at York beside him, and then at Bruna who was sitting.
"I... I haven't been to the Primary Education College!"
York came over and patted Taylor on the shoulder, "Go to the Primary Education College to make up for the lessons when you have time!"
"Captain Bruna, do you think Engelbert and Vargas are cheating in their loyalty to the kingdom?"
"I don't know! But as a soldier, shouldn't we take precautions in advance? Consider all aspects of the matter?"
Bruna continued, "The king is right. The series of victories has made us lose the ability to think calmly!"
Bruna's deafening words rang in the ears of Taylor and York, and also alerted Taylor and York.
The two felt a chill behind them, and they were deeply trapped in the quagmire of pride and boasting but couldn't extricate themselves!
"Before leaving, the king tried to persuade the three of us, but... I just couldn't figure it out..."
"Just now, I suddenly figured it out!"
At this time, Bruna, who was talking eloquently, no longer had any fog in his eyes, and gradually became like a general who had experienced many battles!
People grow up in just a moment. If you grasp the moment, you can realize yourself!
After listening to Brutus's words of emotion, York and Taylor looked at Bruna with a hint of admiration!
York asked: "Captain Bruna, what should we do? Should we directly destroy the Principality of Anderson and the Principality of Garcia?"
"No, if we do this, no one will be loyal to the Kingdom of Apocalypse in the future, and the Principality of Anderson and the Principality of Garcia will be completely pushed to the Kingdom of Betas!" Taylor retorted.
