Chapter 718 (2/2)
”As long as there is a war, there will be a risk of defeat. Don't forget that we have suffered a loss in the hands of the Yongye army leader. Last time, we decided that they had no resistance to our fleet. What was the result? Even our flagship dragon roar has been left there. How can you make sure that the Yongye army has not developed other new weapons these years? ” Keynes retorted, not to be outdone.
”That's enough.” Durbin dropped his glass heavily at Keynes's feet, and his face was as black as the bottom of the pot.
Keynes cried out in secret that he was just trying to refute * * Moore. He even uncovered the biggest scar of his Majesty's king.
Usually, if anyone mentions this matter, he will be chopped by the furious Durbin.
His eyes were full of blood, and he became a little white and fat hand. He could not help but feel the sword he was wearing.
”Father, calm down.” Leighton, on one side, hastened to step forward and pressed the big hand of Durbin tightly. ”Chief Keynes is just discussing affairs. There should be no disrespect or malice. I believe his father must know this.”
The relatively comfortable living environment in the East Sea made the blood shark relax a lot. Not only did he have a lot of white skin, but his personal strength had not improved much in recent years. He was not able to catch up with his young and strong son.
This undoubtedly further stirred up the anger in his heart, angrily yelled: ”let go.”
”Father.” Leighton, aware of his recklessness, let go.
”If you are guilty, please punish me.” Keynes had already reflected at this time and took the initiative to kneel down to plead guilty. He did not explain anything at all.
The more you explain this kind of thing, the more you can't explain it clearly.
”We are dedicated to serving the public. We have nothing else to do. Your majesty should be aware of it.” **Moore wanted to kill Keynes with a knife, so that he lost a competitor, but this dirty mind, can not be so obvious, at least Durbin is not so stupid.
”Father.” Leighton whispered again.
Half of the sword was drawn out by Durbin, and it froze in place. He could not kill his own Chancellor of the exchequer because of Keynes's unpleasant words?
In the East China Sea, there is no shortage of such brave generals as * * Moore.
But there are very few people like Keynes who are good at construction and financial management.
Especially after the establishment of the east sea state and their stability, Durbin became more and more dependent on Keynes, because he had clearly felt that the current mode of governance was more and more different from the original, and that there was no way to solve all the problems only by fighting and killing as described by * * Moore.As Keynes just said, now that the entire eastern sea area is under their rule, where is the reason why they plunder their own people?
It's absolutely short-sighted. It's the king's way to ask them to pay taxes and pay tribute.
”Hoo Hoo...” Durbin, like an angry Beast, puffed out his anger, and had a pent up anger in his heart, but he couldn't vent it. Finally, he pushed his sword back and waved his hand heavily. ”Get up, Keynes is not guilty. He is right. I caused the Dragon roar to be damaged in the small ditch of the Donau river. I will correct my mistakes This time I will go out in person, trample the Yongye Army leaders to pieces, and force them to give us the Dragon roar
”Your majesty!” Keynes.
”Father Leighton.
”Needless to say, I know what I'm doing.” ”I'm not drunk enough, Keynes. I agree with you very much. For a kingdom, a real Kingdom, operation and construction are indispensable. Only by its own people and taxes can a kingdom be called its own kingdom.
It is because I agree with you that I order you to be my Chancellor of the exchequer. I have been watching your actions over the years. You have done well, at least better than * * Moore, a fool.
Up to now, he still regards himself as a bandit, not the first general of the East China Sea.
We used to be pirates. That doesn't mean we'll be pirates all our lives.
We are different from the territory above the Yongye army leader. They started with this, especially the Yongye army leader, which can not be measured by the territory we knew before. The construction speed is not uncommon above us, but don't be discouraged. Even if we take a detour, we will eventually return to the right track. ”
”Your Majesty is wise.” Keynes eulogized him, and his heart was moved. Yes, King Durbin has been supporting himself silently. Without his support, he would not have achieved so much today.
”Those mountain people in the south are really a big problem. Why don't I want to clean them up? It's just that our children are all good at fighting against each other on the water. It's very difficult for them to show their strength when they reach the high mountains.
What's more, we belong to outsiders, the local aborigines believe that our main force must not be seriously hit, or even those who have taken refuge in us may betray us again.
This matter needs to be managed slowly, just like your farming. Only when the roots are deeply rooted and some local people can be used by us, we can organize them into a large army and encircle them
Stubin is far more wise than he showed. He can command a huge fleet and set up his own excesses. He does not rely on blood courage. Behind his ferocity, there is his own cunning and overall view. ”Of course, we can't let them destroy. We must make them pay a heavy price, Leighton.”
”Yes.” Leighton, Prince of Donghai Kingdom, hastened to step forward.
”This matter will be left to the new army you are forming. All the runaway slaves and their families will be hanged in public. All the slaves suspected of being linked to the mountain people in the South will be executed. I want them to know that I can't easily betray him.” Durbin's face was full of cold.
”Father.” Leighton's face flashed a trace of hesitation. ”I have no objection to executing fugitive slaves and warning other slaves. If their families are included, it is not too bloody, and it is easy to arouse greater resistance, which is not conducive to the stability of our rule.”
Durbin stares at Leighton coldly. He is a little uneasy. Just then he nods his head and says, ”good, good, good. This is a matter that I've been thinking about. It can't be done by your new army. Keynes is the thing you should do, and I'll send you an elite.”
