As the area controlled by Merlo City becomes larger and larger, the levels of administrative officials are also divided into more and more levels.
The officials in Mero City are divided into nine levels. The lowest level is the ordinary administrator, and the second-level officials are farmers and village chiefs. These grassroots officials must be appointed by Mero City.
The third-level officials are town magistrates, the fourth-level officials are town leaders, the fifth-level officials are county magistrates, the sixth-level officials are district magistrates, the seventh-level officials are the city lords of the main cities, the eighth-level officials are regional governors, and the ninth-level officials are provincial governors.
with the heads of departments.
The deputy position is one level lower. The county magistrate of BR County is a fifth-level official. The deputy county magistrate is a fourth-level official, and the heads of various departments in the county are one level lower.
Such a complete system makes the entire civil service system very large, which also brings efficiency and control.
As time goes by, such a system is prone to laziness and neglect, so the secret service needs to assist in supervision.
In fact, the former Valkyrie Force has been changed into the Valkyrie Special Forces. On the one hand, it is responsible for the security and counter-intelligence work of Mero City, and on the other hand, it is responsible for supervising civil servants' violations of law and discipline.
The regional general was already one of the top-level officials in Merlo City. This proposal made many people think deeply.
This meeting was attended by many district magistrates and county magistrates. It is already difficult for them to climb up the ladder. This diplomatic consul general is an opportunity.
However, considering that far away in the Ottoman Kingdom, lives may be in danger at any time, which leaves many people in a state of uncertainty.
"Lord, I am willing to lead MI6 to assist the Consul General of the Ottoman Kingdom."
Seeing everyone's hesitation, Aslan's eyes became more and more fierce, and Mrs. Sharon stepped forward to help.
Sure enough, after hearing about MI6's assistance, many people who were originally hesitant signed up one after another, but most of them were county magistrates, with a few district magistrates as well.
These people all have one thing in common, that is, they are young.
Many people looked at Mrs. Sharon with a hint of fanaticism, obviously trying to catch Mrs. Sharon's attention.
Aslan smiled coldly.
These fools would not think that Mrs. Sharon would also go to the Ottoman Kingdom.
MI6 had been deployed in the Ottoman Kingdom a long time ago. After all, there were only two overlord countries in the Northern Continent at that time, so the Kingdom of Cleveland naturally had to deploy in advance. However, due to financial constraints, the Inquisition back then was very slow to penetrate, and its scale was not as good as the ANBU today.
.
Integrating all the intelligence personnel of the ANBU and MI6, plus the bribed traitors, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Ottoman Kingdom's intelligence system has been completely occupied by Mero City.
"Essien, you are responsible for screening the list of applicants! With the large-scale withdrawal of the Maxim Empire's forces from the Northern Continent, their intelligence personnel will never evacuate easily. In the future, the job of the ANBU will be to clean up these rats." Aslan said directly.
give an order.
Lancelot and Mrs. Sharon quickly agreed. Only Vlada was looking through the files by herself. The Yadong subcontinent is the back garden of the Maxim Empire. There must be no shortage of intelligence forces, and the Yadong subcontinent does not belong to the Northern Continent.
Within the scope, this order has nothing to do with him.
Wilson focused on the plan to penetrate the Ottoman Kingdom economically, which made many people's eyes light up.
Use the cheap goods and food in Mero City to exchange for the furs and resources of the Ottoman Kingdom. Of course, bullets made of single-based gunpowder are indispensable.
Didn’t the Maxim Empire want to rely on bullets to maintain the exchange rate of the mark and monopolize the bullet market?
Aslan will use the Ottoman Kingdom as a breakthrough point to sell single-base gunpowder bullets at low prices, break the Maxim Empire's monopoly, and at the same time attract the attention of surrounding countries.
In fact, now that various countries have begun to plant Sangtong, the Maxim Empire will not have a monopoly for many years, but they never expected that Mero City would develop so fast and be able to sell it on a large scale.
However, the price is only half that of the Maxim Empire. One gold coin can buy 100 rounds of rifle ammunition, and the price of each round is about one silver coin.
After talking about the future economic colonization plan, everyone turned their attention to the large map of the Cleveland Federal Kingdom.
"The unified army has been reorganized. The original 1.2 million troops have been reduced to 500,000. The combat strength has not been reduced but has increased. All the selected troops have been classified as garrison troops. Regardless of age, they will retire in five years."
Gawain felt Aslan's gaze and was the first to stand up and speak.
As soon as these words came out, everyone screamed in surprise.
The million-strong army was reduced to half, and although the remainder were included in the garrison, the combat effectiveness was not reduced but increased. Could it be that all the United Army soldiers currently on duty are composed of professionals?
The fact is as everyone expected. With the help of the high-pressure element training chamber, those soldiers who have not awakened their fighting spirit have all been transferred to the garrison. If they can awaken their fighting spirit, they may still have a chance to return to the unified army. If not, they will be in the United Army in five years.
Must retire.
Aslan nodded. Aslan was still very satisfied with the size of the main force of the unified army.
The garrison has a size of up to 700,000, and will be dispatched to the border of Merox Province to be responsible for guarding tasks. The unified army is classified as a field army and is no longer responsible for guarding the border, but has more training tasks and new combat training.
After all, the United Army is now equipped with more than 300 large and small caliber artillery and electromagnetic guns, as well as many newly produced infantry fighting vehicles. As for tanks, they have not been developed yet, mainly due to insufficient engine horsepower and excessive magic power consumption.
There is no solution.
"The autumn harvest will come soon. As the food production of the Principality of Renekton decreases, the problem of food production reduction will definitely occur in the Federal Kingdom of Cleveland. By then, the people will be in chaos, not just the people, but will soon spread to the army. This is our
The opportunity, your opportunity to regain the Kingdom of Cleveland is approaching, so you must cooperate sincerely to restore the glory of the Kingdom."
Aslan raised his fist high and said impassionedly.
Many people stood up to respond, but Duke Medea sat indifferently on her seat, quietly reading her books, while Nomeli quietly covered her mouth and yawned.
Mrs. Sharon stood up speechless.
She felt that Aslan was treating everyone as idiots to restore the glory of the Kingdom of Cleveland. Even if she told Emperor Shani this, he would not believe it. However, Mrs. Sharon finally guessed that Aslan had taken in the Emperor.
Shani's reasons.
Once the Cleveland Commonwealth Kingdom is in chaos, Emperor Shani's flag will once again become the flag of the people of the Cleveland Commonwealth Kingdom, and may even gain the surrender of many troops, compared to attacking the Ottoman Kingdom and the Asian subcontinent.
Don't be too relaxed. With Merlo City's strong lineup, Mrs. Sharon doesn't think the Cleveland Federation Kingdom has any possibility of victory. At most, it will shrink all its strength into one corner and resist stubbornly.
