Chapter 312 [Voice of the Northwest]!

The former Real Madrid Augustine was in power for more than ten years. Although he had no martial arts skills due to the stable situation in the mainland, his civil and political affairs were indeed quite good and had made great achievements.

Especially after more than ten years of power, he basically recovered the tyrants of various departments in the upper class of the empire, and they were all factions loyal to the emperor. They were deeply rooted.

Now there is a sudden coup, the emperor dies, and it is unclear... Although it is announced to the public that the crime can be put on the "real Augustines", these people have been killed, and even the servants in the private military guards' homes that were in trouble in Dongyuan have been killed completely, so the dead will naturally not defend themselves.

But the problem is, if you say this, it would be fine to deceive the civilians who are unknown to the lower classes of the empire, or those middle and lower classes of the empire. Who doesn’t understand the real situation of the empire’s real power and wealthy families?

Just by those "real Augustines", how could they have the ability to overthrow an emperor with great authority? If they had that ability, they would have taken action ten years ago.

But in the current situation, the emperor was overthrown after all, and a coup also occurred. The first emperor was dead and the new emperor had succeeded to the throne. Even though some people were suspicious, even unwilling to accept it, the situation was over.

Hilo has the most orthodox bloodline, and after all, he is already the only heir. Even if someone wants to oppose him, he has no way to oppose him. Apart from Hilo, where can I find an heir with a more noble bloodline than his?

As for the nobles who witnessed the entire coup that night in the palace, they were also worried.

At this moment, I was only worried that the new emperor who stepped on the corpse of the previous emperor would swing the blood-stained butcher knife towards him. It was too late to protect himself, so how could he dare to do anything wrong?

Hilo is also very busy.

The coronation ceremony was held hastily, even if it was a ritual - this may be the most hasty and simplest emperor crowning ceremony in the thousand years since the founding of the Empire, except for those war-torn years.

The entire ceremony took less than an hour and was held in a hurry in the palace. There was no guard of honor, no band, no people in the city to watch the ceremony, and no fireworks and cannons.

Even the auspicious time has not been counted.

He only invited the Chairman of the Magic Union and the Pope to Guanli, and then announced the new emperor's crowning succession.

Even the next day, many people in the city who stayed in the door were not known that the emperor of the empire had changed.

It was not until the notice was posted and the flags on the palace and the city gates were hung, people knew that the sky of this empire had changed.

However, Thunder Whip has completely taken over the imperial capital, and has completely controlled the city in three days before the magic circle has been removed.

Shilo knew very well that he was far from here to rest.

His first move was to soothe and cleanse! These two moves were performed almost at the same time.

After that night, some powerful people in the imperial capital had already seen the situation belated or had already been swaying in their hearts, so they swore their allegiance to him that night.

Some important officials of the empire and the commanders in power in various departments were the targets he wanted to appease.

Aker was in charge of the military headquarters, and this Luolin family's son, who was deeply rooted in red, could naturally suppress the military headquarters. The military minister, Earl Berion of the Luolin family, fainted on the spot on the night of the coup, and was sent back home to recuperate the next day - in name, it was a rest. In fact, a team of soldiers stationed outside the Luolin family's mansion with Thunder Whip prevented the old man from having any connection with the outside world. In this way, the old man who was loyal to the old emperor was cut off and he tried to find out any possibility of any tricks.

If the military headquarters stabilizes other things, it can be done calmly.

The Minister of Finance has been directly imprisoned in the palace, the Minister of State and the Chief of the Government Affairs Office

These old guys are very paranoid and refuse to give in to Hilo.

Shilo was not in a hurry, so he kept it aside. He sent several teams of soldiers from Thunder Whip to watch the mansions of these big families first, and then he quickly carried out a small-scale cleaning.

Although the former Real Madrid was in power for more than ten years, his people were all from the upper class of the empire. But the truth in this world is very simple: if someone supports you, someone will definitely oppose you.

When the late emperor was in power, those who were loyal to him and trusted and valued by him must have controlled important positions of authority in the upper classes of various empires. However, since some people control these positions, some people must be unsuccessful, not reused, or not appreciated by the late emperor.

The Roland Empire was founded for thousands of years. In just one city in the imperial capital, there were more than hundreds of noble families of all sizes?

There are always those who have been unsatisfied with each other for many years and are not very loyal to the Emperor. There are many people in this way.

Since Hilo has endured himself for many years and has been planning for many years, he naturally has many candidates he has long seen in his bag.

Some people who supported him when the dispute over the establishment of the crown prince some time ago were already fighting for the position of the crown prince. These people naturally became innate new royal gang members at this moment.

There are also some people who were unsuccessful during the rule of the late emperor and were not allowed to be promoted. Shilo secretly inspected for many years, and there were always a group of people who were caught in his eyes. At this moment, they could naturally be promoted and entrusted to them for reuse.

Just imagine, when the First Emperor was not welcomed, and now the new Emperor ascended the throne, he would immediately use it. These people were naturally grateful and turned to Hilo without hesitation.

In just a few days, although the positions of the chief ministers of the departments were not changed, Hilo promoted more than ten senior officials in one breath, and the subordinate chiefs of each department were almost changed. Some middle-level officials who were originally unsuccessful quickly turned to the new emperor.

Even if the bosses from various departments are still unwilling to give in and are still locked in a cage, even if they are unwilling to be loyal in the future, after they are released, they will find that most of the deployment of their commander has been changed.

This authority was gradually controlled by Hilo.

Three days later, the magic circle was closed and the city gate was opened.

After taking over the Royal City Guards again, Hilo made another move that seemed extremely bold and risky to the eyes of Aker and others!

According to Aker's suggestion, the 30,000 royal city guards should be directly restrained in the military camp outside the city. After disarming, they should slowly take care of them. In the future, some people will be selected from the local army to enrich the imperial capital. The royal city guards will disperse the original group of old people and garrison the troops in various places. In this way, they will be the most stable.

But Hilo denied this suggestion.

"Most of these guards are in the imperial capital, and as guards, they all have a sense of pride. If they are demoted to local troops and left their hometowns, it is difficult to ensure that these people will not cause any trouble. Now it is time for people to be unstable. If I act like guarding them everywhere, wouldn't I appear to be as narrow-minded and not having a bigoted state? The more I do this, the more others think I am guilty and do the hard on the outside."

Hilo's words left Aker speechless.

Then Hilo ordered the 30,000 royal guards to be reorganized on the spot.

He followed Panin's father, General Garonin's advice, and drew two thousand people from the First Division, and one thousand people from the Thunder Whip, as the backbone, and into the Imperial Guard, which had been completely destroyed.

Then the remaining part of the patrol team of the Imperial Capital Public Security Bureau, plus the remaining Thunder Whip, were all incorporated into the Royal City Guards.

After another careful mix-up, the commanders of various battalions and teams in the Wangcheng Guards were transferred, and the officers and soldiers under their command were all old and new. They also promoted some middle- and low-level officers who made contributions to the coup on the night of the Thunder Whip and promoted them and arranged them in the Wangcheng Guards.

In this way, even if the Guards are stabilized, even if some people want to cause trouble, the entire army has changed a lot, even if they want to make trouble, they cannot connect them.

And Hilo did this, there was a vague intention. Even Aker himself knew this: to break up the Second Division of Thunder Whip, which he relied the most in this coup.

In fact, it is equivalent to taking back Aker's direct command power in disguise!

What a person Shiloh is? He can tolerate planning for many years. Although he was in a coup and was highly dependent on Aker during the coup, he also knew very well that the disadvantages of being too big. If he relied on Aker too much, it would likely lead to a military oligarch who supported the army and was self-respecting.

Especially in the early stages of my rise, if this hidden danger is left, I don’t know what kind of chaos will cause in the future.

Aker also lived in power struggle for half his life, so he naturally understood the intention of the new emperor, but he did not resist. Anyone who became an emperor, as long as the emperor was not a fool, such measures were the subject of the question. The emperor refused to restrain himself, which was also a good thing in some ways. It would be much better than being suspicious of the emperor in the future and then being killed directly by the emperor.

Anyway, Hilo is already going to marry his daughter Jill. With the foundation of the Rollin family, even if he does not directly control military power, it has laid an unbreakable foundation for the family's development in the next few decades!

As long as Emperor Hilo does not fall, he will definitely value himself, a hero who strongly supports him! Otherwise, who will still work hard for him?

After many compromises, exchanges of rights, and cleanings, the days passed by several more days.

The mixed formation of the Royal City Guards was soon completed, and each defense zone was replaced, and the garrisons of several acropolis outside the Imperial Capital were also rotated and transferred.

Subsequently, the mixed guards took over the defense of the imperial capital again, and the new imperial guards also entered the palace.

The personnel changes and small-scale cleaning of military departments...

Hilo's performance was not like a newcomer at all, but like a hero who had been in power for the rest of his life, he took action with great etiquette and steady steps, one by one, and soon suppressed the unstable people's hearts. Even the nobles and wealthy families who were not convinced were gradually speechless and had no choice but to take advantage of it, so they had to remain at peace.

Seeing that the new emperor had already firmly held the throne, Aker quickly proposed his own construction.

Since the imperial capital is stable, the next step is to adjust the officials of the border areas in various parts of the country!

The late emperor was in power for more than ten years, and all the officials who could be placed in the border areas of the empire were candidates that the late emperor valued and trusted, such as the Governor Fritz who had been in the East China Sea for more than ten years.

If such people continue to stay in the local government, then there is a possibility of undermining the central government of the imperial capital if they continue for a long time. Naturally, after the imperial capital stabilizes the general trend, the next step is to adjust the local bosses to win over a group, suppress one group, and replace one group of their own people. This is an inevitable step.

Aker's suggestion is very reasonable, but Hilo shook his head again.

"Wait a little longer!"

"Wait?" Aker's expression was a little confused.

Aker, who has been formally appointed as Vice Minister of Military Affairs, has not had much selfishness to make such suggestions.

Although he was only the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, the genuine Minister of Military Affairs was his father, and the old earl was almost under house arrest. Aker had the final say on the military headquarters. What's more, Hilo had promised that he would find a name for him to take the ill and go to the position to straighten himself.

Besides, my daughter is about to become the queen, so what else can I worry about?

In a study room in the palace, Aker looked at the new emperor in front of him and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty... This matter is not enough! Since the situation in the imperial capital has stabilized, local affairs must not be slackened! Some people are watching the scenery at this moment. If we don't have any action, I'm afraid they think you are guilty and ruthless, and will become more and more out of control in the future."

Hilo shook his head: "What I, the Roland Empire, has always implemented is the separation of local military and political affairs. Even if the governors from all over the country have the intention of waiting and watching, there is no need to worry too much in the short term. As long as you stabilize the army, the local people don't need to be so anxious to move for the time being. Although what you said is also good, at this moment, I am more concerned about another thing...I am still waiting!"

"Wait?" Aker thought for a while and his face changed. He immediately understood Hilo's intention. He took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Are you... waiting for the Northwest's attitude?"

"……good!"

The two looked at each other and fell silent at the same time.

Although I didn't say it clearly, what Shilo and Aker thought was the same at this moment!

In the provinces of the empire, dozens of governors and chief officials of the border, local powerful people... The wait-and-see attitude of these people is not the most important thing!

The most important thing is the attitude of the person in the northwest!

Northwest...Loulan City, Tulips!!

The prestige of tulips has been deeply rooted in the Roland Empire!

Shilo knew very well that if he said something might be helpless, the people of the empire were afraid that Tulip's words would be far better than his new emperor!

It would be fine if the other governors waited and watched, but everyone was actually waiting for the sound from the Northwest Tulip House!!

At this moment, if the Tulip family expressed their attitude, recognized the legitimacy of Hilo, the new emperor, and expressed their willingness to be loyal to the new emperor, then Hilo would truly hold the throne!

If the Tulips suddenly issued a statement denounced Hilo as a rebel who usurped the throne and seized power, and refused to recognize the legal orthodox of his new emperor, then...

It is no exaggeration to say that what is waiting for Hilo is a terrible civil war!

Moreover, if the Tulip family takes the lead and starts a civil war to attack itself, then...their chances of winning will even be extremely slim!

After all, I just succeeded to the throne and the empire's army has not yet truly controlled it. The only thing I can control is the tens of thousands of people in the imperial capital.
To be continued...
