Chapter 813: Kings Order, Conquest of Chapala Lake Area
"Inform the god descendants of Akame City and give the kingdom's 'request', either to stop Prince Feather from moving westward...or to give the kingdom another reason to conquer Akame City..."
Shulot made a decision, and Eckart, the captain of the guard, wrote it down. Then the king used his seal, and the official royal order was issued. Elaine, the scribe, sat in the corner and copied a copy of the issued royal order as a record. Centralized Kingdom
Power allows royal government to be conveyed efficiently without complicated rules and regulations. The rise and fall of the government depends on "people".
"The head of the family, the Prepecha people are different from the wilderness dog descendants. They are based on farming and live in villages with sufficient water sources. In the entire Chapala Lake area, there are 200,000 to 300,000 Prepecha people who will never follow the feathers.
Prince Peng Guali, all moved. And even if one hundred thousand people move, it will not be easy to find a new settlement in the west with lush water and grass suitable for planting!"
The captain of the guard, Eckart, thought for a moment and spoke his opinion calmly.
"Even though Prince Feather has shown signs of migrating westward, he will not be able to move too many tribes or move very far within a year or two. All the fertile lake valleys to the west of Lake Chapala already have Tekos
Human tribes occupied it. When the Chapala tribes moved westward, they were the first to fight against these Tekos tribes... His struggle was just a pioneer of the king!"
Hearing this, Shulot nodded slightly. His gaze stayed on Lake Chapala for a moment, and then moved to the undulating Sierra Madre Occidental Mountains to the west of the lake. Along the winding Leman River, he went west for another six hundred miles.
It is on the east side of the Pacific Ocean, the outlet of the City of Trois-Rivières. And the outlet of the Leman River is a full 1,300 miles further north than the outlet of the Talsas River in the south of the kingdom!
"If we occupy this port and completely open up the lower reaches of the Leman River, the management of the northern continent will suddenly speed up! And the struvite, coal mines, copper mines, gold mines... on the northern west coast will be more convenient
The shipment arrived south!..."
"Well, two months ago, the exploration fleet to the far north sent back the latest report. The large Yorem tribe on the west coast has been controlled by the kingdom and has taken a blood oath to convert to the main god. It produces copper, coal, and gold mines.
The large Yolem tribe was renamed Leijin Town, becoming the kingdom's first large town in the north. The wilderness missionary priest, the songbird Quekator, requested from the kingdom to establish a northern town in Leijin Town.
The first diocese in the world!..."
"I have approved this request and promoted Songbird to the third-level chief priest, in charge of all religious affairs on the west coast of the Northland, and allowed the establishment of the religious order's armed forces... A new batch of missionary priests and kingdom craftsmen have already taken a boat to the Northland.
The Leijin Town Association established a bronze smelting house to produce bronze weapons and tools on the spot, and began to build a small temple, becoming the center of missionary work in the North..."
Thinking of this, Shulot rubbed his eyebrows again. He felt like a "greedy" monkey, extending his claws to the east and west coasts at the same time, grabbing the fruits on the vast land and unwilling to let go.
"I want them all on the east and west coasts, the northern wasteland, and the Cuban Snake Island!... Is this too greedy?... And the governance of these distant places can only be fully let go and rely on the various main god priests and legion commanders.
The autonomous decision of the ruling county governor... is like the tribal alliance of the Great Khan of the steppe..."
Shulot pondered for a long time, and it became clearer and clearer in his mind. With the current communication speed of the kingdom, completely delegating power to the governors in various places is actually equivalent to appointing a "governor". He also clearly understands that he cannot be on the seaside.
He has stayed on the ground for too long, so he must sort out the various coastal departments as soon as possible and establish a "Hainan Governor's Mansion" that can carry power and manage on his behalf.
Various thoughts flashed in the king's mind. He looked serious and spoke in a deep voice, but his words turned to the north of the kingdom.
"Since Prince Feather has moved west, the conquest of the land of Chapala must be completely put on the agenda before I can return with my army! Ekart, draft a formal royal order for me and issue it to me at the same time.
Yin Orosh, Gyeonggi County, Yin Kuluka, Hakou County, and Yin Ezpan, Apa County.”
"Yes, Master!"
"King's order, after this year's autumn harvest, Hekou and Apa counties will each dispatch a formal army of 8,000 people and recruit flag militia of the same size to attack the land of Chapala! And the Gyeonggi Army will dispatch 3,000 people to attack the city.
The artillery, and brought along Horta, the master of the Sky Family, to recruit and surrender the Chapala tribes. In this expedition, Orosh is the leader, taking charge of the overall situation, with Kuluka and Ezpan as deputy, taking charge of the north and south routes."
"This expedition is a divine war witnessed by the Lord God. It is a formal western expedition! The purpose of the divine war is to completely conquer the Chapala Lake area, control more than 200,000 Prepecha tribesmen, and convert them all! For
The old nobles of Prepecha in the conquered areas must be cleaned up very carefully, deprived of their fiefs and subjects, and established villages directly under the kingdom. The priests of the three gods must also be carefully screened and identified, and the senior priests will severely punish them.
Sacrifice, low-level priests absorb and transform..."
Shulot's voice was steady and powerful, but in Eckart's ears, it seemed as if there was a strong smell of blood coming from it.
"Clean up carefully and punish the sacrifices severely..."
Eckart, the captain of the guard, pursed his lips and scrupulously wrote down the royal order carefully. Then, Elaine, the clerk, copied three copies in order, which were used as the official royal order for each county governor.
"After the North and South Roads occupied the Chapala Lake area, Dahu County was established, and the County Governor was..."
The Lake Chapala area has been conquered repeatedly, and it has long been like a cactus fruit with its prickly skin peeled off, leaving only the last bite of delicious food. Therefore, Xiulote is confident and has no doubts about the victory in the expedition to the Lake Chapala area. But mentioning
After conquering the Lake District, Shulot was hesitant for a while when choosing the new county magistrate.
There is no doubt that the Chapala Lake area will not be enfeoffed, but must be placed under direct jurisdiction. This also means that the old nobles of various ministries will be cleared, mintun villages and towns will be established, and parish management will be divided. However, the Chapala Lake area is far from the royal capital, and the county governor
The autonomy power will be higher.
"You must be able to govern the local area and deal with the ministries of Tekos and Prepecha, and you must be loyal to the kingdom..."
Shulot frowned and pondered for a long time, but still could not make a decision. He thought for a while, looked at the captain of the guard Eckart, and asked in a deep voice.
"Eckart, who do you think would be more appropriate to manage Lake Chapala?"
Hearing such a question, the captain of the guard, Eckart, looked serious. This kind of suggestion to decide the ownership of the place was of great importance. He had to be cautious and rarely spoke.
"Master, the various tribes in the Lake Chapala area are intertwined, and the situation is complicated. After capturing this place, we will have to face the Guamar people in the north and the Tecos people in the west... Loyal generals who control the legion must be in charge!"
The captain of the guard, Ekater, stopped at that point, lowering his head and not daring to say anything. Shulot raised his brows, his face thoughtful.
"The generals who control the legions? Guards, Gyeonggi, Lithospermum, Long Spear One, Long Spear Two, Guakili, Long Snake... The legion commanders in the kingdom, those who are not yet in charge of one side, or who are on an expedition, are the only ones...
"
"The commander of the Long Snake Legion, a general from a family warrior, Hervey!..."
Thinking of this, Shulot looked sharply at the captain of the guard, Ekart.
"Master of the family, the family warriors have served the Holy City for generations, and their loyalty to you can be learned from the Master!"
Eckart, the captain of the guard, stood respectfully, with a sincere and calm expression on his face. He and Hervey were indeed both family warriors from a branch of the Holy City, and they knew each other well. But he was also convinced that the loyalty of the other party was the same as his own.
You can die for the master of the family!
"Well, I can trust your loyalty!"
Shulot watched for a moment and nodded slowly. Then, he made a decision and issued the royal order.
"The king ordered us to set out from Apa County to conquer the Chapala Lake area. The main force is the Long Snake Legion! The commander of the legion, Elvi, presides over the local military affairs, spreads the faith of the Lord God, and takes charge of the captured Chapala land!"
"I obey you! Master!"
Eckart, the captain of the guard, knelt on one knee and saluted. With a calm expression, Hulot watched the guards in the tent draw up the royal order, and then printed the jade seal with his own hand. Then, he stood up and looked at the man hanging in the west.
Sunset smiled lightly.
"Let's go! Today's government affairs are temporarily over. It's getting late, so let's go and take a look at the gifts from the Jinwan tribe..."
