After simply tidying up his mind and body, Soshyan immediately threw himself into his busy work.
First of all, he held a grand memorial ceremony for all the soldiers who died in the decisive battle of the Kara system, and announced that the non-Space Marines who died in this expedition would all receive the standard pension benefits of the Astra Militarum. Of course, even so, this number is
It's not small, and Soshyan's current material resources cannot satisfy it all.
So he came up with the second strategy, which was actually a relatively common measure adopted by the Ministry of Military Affairs, which was to replace the land with land.
Among the many galaxies conquered, quite a few are habitable, such as the ocean world of the Magg Star Cluster, which the Red Pirates exploited very extensively. After "relocating" the residents above, those fertile islands and land, as well as those full of
The ocean rich in algae and fishery resources can immediately become a very suitable resettlement place - Soshyan named it the Martyrs' Territory.
If the families of the fallen are willing, they can obtain land, mountains and other resource points of varying sizes from these livable worlds according to the troops and military ranks they belonged to during their lifetime, and there will also be a tax holiday of up to ten years. This can
To meet the needs of providing compensation for fallen officers and soldiers, some immigrants were also provided.
Of course, there must be many people who are unwilling to leave their hometowns. There are also arrangements for these people. The land in their hands can be sold, and who are the buyers?
He is the newly appointed ruler of this world.
All appointed governors have a condition, which is to unconditionally acquire the transferred martyrs' territories and must pay immediately.
The governor also has to spend money to buy land in his own world. This sounds a bit incredible, but there are still many people flocking to it. After all, these livable worlds are much more comfortable than those hive worlds or mining worlds, and have greater development potential.
huge.
In this way, Soshyan can solve the problem of pensions for the fallen without any effort.
Of course, this is only a general framework. The formulation and implementation of specific rules can only arrange the administrative agencies of the expeditionary force to interface with the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs is quite dissatisfied with Soshyan's arbitrary handling of recovering the world, the other party is now the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. His power in the Maelstrom is close to unlimited. As long as the expedition does not end in one day, he is qualified.
Deal with any world.
Not only the officers and soldiers who died in battle, but after the expedition is over, in addition to some outstanding troops who will be recruited by the Ministry of Military Affairs to continue serving the empire, many temporary troops recruited locally will have to be disbanded, and those retired soldiers will also receive similar benefits.
award.
After dealing with the issue of dead officers and soldiers, Soshyan made another surprising decision.
Considering the efforts and sacrifices made by the people of various worlds in the Maelstrom for this expedition, he decided to exempt all non-agricultural and mining worlds from tithes for one cycle, except for the worlds belonging to the Mechanicus and the Ministry of Justice, and those two types
In a world where tithes are halved!
This decision immediately encountered serious opposition from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Soshyan later explained that this was his personal decision. He, or the expeditionary force, was willing to pay the tithe for one cycle on behalf of the people of the Maelstrom.
At that time, the person in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was dumbfounded. It was the first time they had seen such a thing. Later, Soshyan further explained that during the years of the expedition, they had seized a huge amount of gold, silver, jewelry, cultural relics and antiques from the Red Pirates.
Religious relics and other valuables can be said to have been handed over, except for weapons, equipment and machinery. These items cannot be eaten or drunk, but they have "value". Soshyan also specifically checked the Ministry of Internal Affairs
The tithe collection standard can be "deducted" with items of specific value, including but not limited to exquisite jewelry, ancient cultural relics, etc.
But the person in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is in trouble. This is indeed possible, but it often needs to inform Terra in advance, and it also depends on the type of local tithe. Some involve strategic resources or important human resources.
It cannot be deducted in this way.
Soshyan then threw out a second bargaining chip, which was a bunch of illegal psykers caught in several years of expeditions.
Due to a certain degree of Chaos pollution in the Red Pirates' domain, there are more illegal psychics or sorcerers than in the normal Empire world. Over the years, four to five thousand people have been captured here and there. Some of them are strong, some are weak, and some are gray in between.
The knights took away a batch, the state church took a batch, and the think tanks of each battle group took away a small portion, leaving more than 3,800 people.
The psionic tithe is the highest level of tithe in the empire. Due to the value of psykers, some worlds even provide a dozen psykers which are enough to offset a cycle of tithes.
These more than three thousand psykers are almost three times the psychic tithe of a cycle of the Maelstrom. At most, this area can only provide less than a thousand psykers at a time, and this is because of the subspace activities of the Maelstrom.
More frequently.
With the presence of these psychics, the tone of the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately changed, and they all praised Soshyan for his integrity and caring for the people.
However, regarding the role of the Maelstrom region in the empire's tax system, these alone were still not enough. For this reason, Soshyan also found the Terran envoy and explained his ideas, and finally got the support of the other party.
Of course, this matter was also widely publicized. Under the crazy operation of the empire's claim machine, at least the vast majority of the hives and a considerable number of residents inside knew that the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force exempted them from the tithe for one period. This also
Jean Soshyan won the praise of many governors and nobles, after all, the tithe was first imposed on them.
And this, in turn, involves the next issue.
In the appointment of governors of newly recovered worlds, although some worlds and nests will be attributed to meritorious officers, there are still some resource worlds or worlds that can barely develop immigrants. Of course, Soshyan will not do such a thing as selling officials and conferring titles. In fact, he chooses
Those governors were completely based on ability, conduct and family background, and there were many officers who were civilians and gradually climbed to high-level command positions. If Soshyan had made such a decision before, the nobles would definitely be dissatisfied, but now they have taken
Since people have short hands, it’s hard to say anything.
And Soshyan did this just in the hope that the Maelstrom would be more stable in the future, and that more and more capable people would be able to make a small contribution to the empire's rule in this area, and that the children under their rule would be able to
People's lives are slightly better.
No matter what the original intention of this expedition was, at least as an Astartes, Soshyan had to have a clear conscience.
Maybe things won't always be good, maybe when he turns around, everything that was good will slowly deteriorate, but he has done his best.
Of course, he still fulfilled the contract with the Wotan Alliance. These greedy short-term people obtained the mining rights of several high-value mining worlds in the Bloody Skeleton Galaxy, although this suspected "compromising alien" behavior would undermine his greatness.
The Alien Tribunal also criticized the fair image, but fortunately Wotan still has a lot of influence in the Maelstrom. Under the traditional method of having money, the definition of short man is still the same.
It is a gray Mohu area, and Soshiyang's behavior can only be said to be "inappropriate" and cannot be said to violate imperial laws. avasdiv Scan the QR code to download Red Sleeves United Xiaoxiang to receive benefits Newcomers can read it for free for a limited time divdivdiv
