Warhammer Throne

Chapter 1003, Where Did All The Money Go? (Second more beg for votes!)

The court of the Tsar, or the exiled government of Kislov, is now located in the capital of Ostermark, Bekafen. Due to the short time, the military supply of the empire is temporarily in a normal state, and the White Guards are temporarily maintained. The formation of the army.

I have to say that the newly formed Romanov Guards are still somewhat like this. These soldiers were selected by the female tsar. The selection criteria were naturally height, appearance and military posture. The female tsar’s personal wealth and the tsar’s wealth are provided, and the equipment is uniformly purchased from the empire Nur, under the charge of the old Krupp president of the Krupp Chamber of Commerce, the chief logistics officer of the Motkin invasion of the empire, Katalin From Emilia and Old Krupp, a batch of Nur-standard equipment was obtained with low-cost mortgages, half-buy and half-delivery.

Of course, Emilia is not a great philanthropist, the Virgin Mary. The little maid of Ryan is mainly for two reasons. The first is to arm this group of Mrs. Kisler to at least deal with and involve part of the chaotic army. Reduce the pressure and loss on the Empire side.

The second reason is that the main force of Chaos is dying too fast. No one thought that Motkin would suddenly commit suicide. This led to a large number of factories and the Krupp Chamber of Commerce in Nuer that originally produced a large amount of weapons and equipment and military supplies. The result was useless, inventory The backlog has turned into a lot of trouble, and now it is considered a clearance sale, reducing inventory, small profits but quick sales.

Emilia is not military, and both internal affairs and diplomacy are recognized master-level standards. On the one hand, she has had a long career as a mercenary, and she is familiar with the social situation and the hardships of the lower classes. On the other hand, she also follows Ryan I learned a lot with Surya, especially Surya's extremely skilled court power and Ryan's endless whimsy and political diplomacy.

The Romanov Guards are also very good looking from the outside. They are tall and neat, and they are equipped with exquisite standard equipment produced by Noor. Catalin came out from his private residence to see these As the guards were on duty, they couldn't help but feel some comfort.

Knight King Lion has his loyal and powerful old guards escorting, and I also have my old guards!

I will prove that my old guard is no worse than his old guard!

At this time, the important members of the Duma outside the country also gathered. They have a large number. Here are a few of the most important names. They are:

The current chief court minister of Kislov, Petrov Panov.

The current Grand Marshal Kislov and the White Guard commander Dunikin.

The current Marshal Kislov, the commander of the Romanov Guards Semenov.

The current Chancellor of the Exchequer, Demirov.

The current General Keslov, the head of the White Guard’s General Quartermaster and Chief Logistics Officer, Bagramyan.

After arriving here, the group of people waited outside for a while, without worrying about going in. Chief Petrov saw that all the important people were almost there, laughed a few times, and said, "The time is about the same, Your Majesty is here. It should be ready."

"Today we are here to discuss things, it should be to prepare for the Northern Expedition and recover the lost ground." Marshal Denny Kim was proud, he was wearing a military uniform and a military coat, and the Marshal smiled and said: "I want to come , That's it."

"It may also be news from Olengrad." Semenov's expression is not good-looking: "Did you see Arakcheev's embarrassed appearance? Maybe something happened to Olengrad."

"But I heard the news that someone secretly stabbed the White Guard's food for comfort!" Dmirov's face was ugly, and he deliberately turned his attention to the Minister of Logistics Bagrami Yang: "Well, maybe a woman As soon as the Czar was happy, he set us up and took the whistleblower to our place. Are you saying, General Bagramyan?"

"Humph!" General Bagramyan recalled the arrangement of Demirov. After receiving the orders and grants from the Tsar, the Minister of Finance Demirov did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent 300 gold Ducat to himself. In his hand, he also seriously commanded: "Now you have the money! Hurry and make the food in the army better, don't go wrong!"

As a result, something went wrong, and Bagramyan tried his best to do it. He used the 300 gold Ducat budget to the limit, and even went to negotiate the price purchase with the Bekafen businessmen himself, to ensure that the goods were delivered in full and on time. There was something wrong with the logistics of the White Guards: "I don't know what is going on, but I have evidence of any expenditure, and I didn't get a penny!"

"Oh, our general is really capable of doing things. It seems that he is ready to be promoted to marshal myself!" Demirov said without getting the answer he wanted.

"Okay, don't embarrass Huff anymore." Petrov waved his hand at this matter: "Everyone, thank you for the blessing of Esun, the main force of chaos has been destroyed, and Ellengrad is also in Britannia and With the help of the Empire, he recovered, but now there is such a thing, the mood of His Majesty the Tsar is definitely not going to be better, to comfort the food, everyone can pass it, try to pass it, don’t add to the confusion, you Say it right?"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

"Peter is right!"

"Let's take this matter first. Let's think about other ways to go back."

The crowd began to enter the venue one after another, and only Bagramyan fell to the rear. The logistics minister snorted coldly. He wondered if he should consider resigning. If he went on like this, even if he was not thrown out by the tsar, If you catch it, you will be hated to death.

Relatively speechless, he successively entered the hall, and everyone sat down, and Katalin had been waiting for a long time.

The house is lit with a good ambergris, the fire is burned with the highest grade silver carbon, and many furnitures are newly built using good cherry wood.

Katalin took out a small note and threw it on the table. The tsar was very angry. She shouted at everyone, especially General Bagramyan: "Hof! Look at you, all What's the matter? Why did I explicitly call 800 Ducat for you! Actually, the comfort food only has this thing! I tell you, if you can't give a reasonable explanation today, then go to Ye Rufu to report it! "

The eyes of the crowd were all focused on General Bagramyan. The logistics minister did not panic. He took out several documents from his body and signaled the attendant to hand to the tsar: "Your Majesty, this is the purchase list. It lists all the purchase unit price and the total purchase amount. Also, please allow me to correct the error of your majesty. I did not receive 800 Ducat, I only received 300 Ducat."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone's face in the meeting room became ugly.

"300?! Why only 300? Where's the remaining 500?!" Katalin checked the document and confirmed that Bagramiyan wasn't embezzled. The tsar was even more angry: "Demirov! Get me away Come out! Didn’t I give you 800 Ducats? Why did you only get 300?"

The Chancellor of the Treasury, Demirov, had to stubbornly step out when he heard the question. He bowed slowly towards Katalin, and then said quietly, "Your Majesty, I can give General Bagramiyan 300. I have done my best. Ah, the Kingdom has huge financial expenses. Many things stop and wait for money. Finally, there is a little money. You have to solve some of them. Debts and expenses are constantly in deficit. My Finance Minister is also very difficult to handle! Please understand your majesty. Difficulties."

After hearing these words, Katalin's face softened slightly. The tsar thought that Demirov had been a finance minister for herself for more than ten years. She had always been loyal, particularly loyal, and he breathed better: "Okay , Today’s meeting is about this matter. I didn’t deliberately embarrass you. If you have any difficulties, you can mention it and make it clear. Where did the other 500 Ducats go?"

"The other 500 Ducats are like this. 300 Ducats are used to pay and compensate the beakers of Bekafen's shipyard for transporting supplies and military equipment from the rear." Milov first told the whereabouts of the first money.

"But we have never seen a cargo ship in our logistics here!" Bagramyan looked out, and the logistics minister shouted: "All of us organized the hand-carrying! Your Majesty, hundreds of people are transporting in order to move materials. Tired or even starved to death! And how many 300 charter boats can be hired?"

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet." Demirov sneered for a while, adding: "We did rent the boat and did transport the supplies, but the boat went to the Tarabek River and encountered magic, here Isn’t there a chaotic army in the river? The ships encountered some troubles. The two ships caught fire and turned over. They could only go by land. As the cost was too large, compensation and material losses should also be included. Well, this is the first sum of money. The creditor is chasing it tightly. I can only give it first. Otherwise, we will not keep our promise and cause disputes. This is a trivial matter. If it hurts the holy name of His Majesty Catalin, this is a big deal! "

Chief Minister Petrov said when Katarine didn’t speak anymore, he actively said: "Then, even if this matter is clear, next time you don’t want to do this anymore. Transportation is difficult. If you encounter trouble, it’s force majeure, but The money is still on the right path. I have to do a self-examination here. I haven’t made it clear. Does everyone say it? Three fines!"

After that, Petrov made three cups of vodka.

The Minister of Logistics Bagramiyan was speechless for a moment. After hearing that, Katalin thought that Demirov was still faithful to protect the Lord. Did he blame him? She waved her hands impatiently, beckoning and saying, "So what about the second money? Where is the 200 gold Ducat?"

"There is also the cost of repairing the palace, and the arrears of the court's expenses." Demirov squeezed out a smile, and he said in a good voice: "Your Majesty traveled south to Beckafin, self-serving, evening clothes It’s really a generation of Mingjun. How can we as ministers do things with no heart?"

Everyone nodded, Demirov relaxed, and then said: "Your Majesty's court is already trying to be frugal, but some banquets have to be held, and some ostentations have to be arranged, otherwise it will damage my Keesler. The husband’s national prestige is detrimental to the reputation of His Majesty the Tsar. At ordinary times, everyone tried their best to support. No one dared to suffer when they suffered. Therefore, we negotiated, and the soldiers suffered a little, and 200 Jindu were drawn from it. Carter, subsidizing the cost of His Majesty, these are all expenses in the court, and there are detailed accounts available from His Majesty. Are you saying that, Marshal Semenov?"

"Exactly." Romanov Guards Commander took a step forward, staring at Bagramyan: "I can testify, and our old Guards can also testify. Your Majesty, I want to say something to Minister Demirov Then, why do you always do more, and who gets more grievances?! Can those soldiers understand our hardships? It’s not easy to understand your majesty, so there is trouble all day long, trouble! Really a group of skins Itchy beast!"

Demirov wiped his tears with red eyes, looking really wronged.

These bastards! It is clear that these people are... General Logistics Minister Bagramiyan has a pale face, but he can't justify it at this time, because at this time he can't justify any sentence, that is, pointing directly to His Majesty the Tsar. Inside the prison, there are countless prisoners who dare to blame Katalin directly!

Sure enough, Catalina's face was more relaxed. It seemed that these ministers were still faithful enough, but the information exchange was not smooth. The tsar took out a small note and raised the last question: "So, is there anyone Can you explain why the total value of the final food is only 120 Jin Ducat?"

Don’t wait for Bagramyan to speak, and Dunnikin took the initiative to say: "Purchasing food for the army is always safe and safe. We buy good materials, good wine, good meat, but those soldiers are not literate, no I understand that it is calculated according to the market price in the countryside, so it seems that there are few things and the price is expensive. This is normal."

"The local food price is very high, and you want to buy food from other places. It is winter and chaos along the way, and some losses are normal." Petrov also said: "This matter, Bagramiyan is responsible , I also have a responsibility. In general, it is good for someone to be able to ask questions, which shows that we are taking clear accounts and where the money is going.

The female tsar summed up the opinions of the Duma. I thought that it still seems that the quality of the people is low and greedy, and I understand that their hard work does not know how to be grateful! In the future, this kind of comfort food will be forgotten.

Although I was still a little bit strange about the details, why wasn't Catalin done anything in the end? Only 800% of Ducate's 800 gold actually arrived? The rest is gone?

But the tsar accepted the remarks reluctantly, and had no intention of wasting time anymore. She finally struck a sentence: "I also remind you, don't happen again next time, always be careful and prudent. Recognize the hard work of the soldiers, and reward and punishment are fair."

"Follow the orders!" The people knelt down together, and the matter was considered over.

Admiral Bagramyan only felt his heart bleeding. He closed his eyes and tapped his head on the luxurious carpet from Osuan. His voice trembled: "Your Majesty...Holy!"

"Okay, let's discuss now, about the Northern Expedition!" Katalin motioned to discuss the next topic.

Northern Expedition!

"Your Majesty is different from Katalin." Talleyrand said with a smile: "The bureaucrats all know who you are. Your majesty is the hero, and will not be dizzy by the bureaucrats' words. Three cups of fines can’t be lost, coupled with His Majesty’s accuracy, proper use, his own sources, and his own independent monitoring by His Majesty Mogianna, the bureaucrats are afraid to make small moves, of course, the most important thing is, Your Majesty has the full support of the army. Your powerful army is very loyal, very very loyal. This is very rare, and it scares the bureaucrats."

"Very rare?" Lane came interested.

"Since ancient times, rulers have always faced a dilemma. Powerful people cannot guarantee loyalty, and loyal people are often incapable. www.ltnovel.com~ Talleyrand nodded: "After weighing the pros and cons, rule The instincts of the people are more like loyal people, although most of these people are incompetent people, but this makes them feel at ease, and only you, my knight king, can pass endless victory and superb internal and diplomatic capabilities , To control a large group of capable subordinates, let them convinced. "

"Does it include you? Talleyrand?" Lane glanced at the lame.

"Your Majesty has shown your might and gained my loyalty." Talleyrand bowed with a smile: "Of course, it would be better if you could give me a walking elf horse~"

"Ha ha ha ha! Okay, wait back to Brittania. You took my message to Surya's stable to pick a half-breed elf warhorse as a gift to you. It was a reward to you!" Lahn laughed. , He nodded in agreement: "Before that, you go to the barracks to pick a good horse instead."

"Thank you very much!" Talleyrand immediately bowed his thanks, and the corner of the lame's mouth curled up.

Plan to pass!

The second is to ask for votes!
