In order to save his own life, Morgu naturally cursed Zant and put all the blame on Zant.
King Henry said coldly: "Damn Zante, I'm sorry I trust him so much! How can our Roman Empire compete with the enemy after losing 90,000 troops at once!"
"This! Your Majesty! We are afraid that we are no longer opponents of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, but we are not without a chance. If we can get the full support of the nobles, we can quickly increase our troops and perhaps withstand the attack of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets!
"
At this time, Morgu hated the people of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets so much that he chopped off his hands and feet, thus making himself a useless person!
Even if he died, he would not be able to let the Empire of the Sun Never Set easily occupy the Roman Empire, but King Henry said: "Morgu, now that the situation is like this, do you think those nobles will still support us?"
"This... Your Majesty the King, those nobles will definitely not support us anymore, but at the critical moment of the country's life and death, how can we still care so much?"
"Earl Kane has the most money. You can directly send people to raid his house, then seize all their money and quickly gather your troops!"
"We have the largest number of poor people in the Roman Empire. As long as they have money, they will go through life and death for us!"
Morgu said.
King Henry was silent, and Morgu continued: "Your Majesty, if you hesitate now, it will only make the situation more complicated. If those nobles are alert, you will have no chance!"
this!
King Henry was silent for a long time and said: "I know! I will send people to Earl Kane's house now to confiscate all his property, and then quickly form an army!"
After that, King Henry sent people to send Morgu back, and then personally took the people to Earl Kane's house.
Earl Kane had known about the news that Morgu had been sent back with his limbs chopped off early in the morning, and was waiting for King Henry with a cold face.
"His Majesty King Henry, you brought so many people to my house. Do you want to pay back the money or borrow the money?"
Earl Kane said coldly.
He was not a fool. He naturally knew what King Henry would choose when he was in a dilemma. These nobles were his last hope.
Only by grabbing all the property of the nobles can we quickly build up troops and withstand the attack of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
But if they do this, will these nobles still be nobles?
That is simply shameless!
"Borrow money!"
King Henry said solemnly.
"Haha! If you want to borrow money, then please ask King Henry to go back. My Kane family doesn't have much money, so I still want to keep it for myself."
Earl Kane said with a sneer.
When King Henry heard this, the look on his face became even more ferocious, and he said: "Haha! It's not up to you. Come here! Search for me! Take away all the money you find!"
"yes!"
The soldiers of the Roman Empire began to forcibly search for money.
Earl Kane's property had been hidden by him for a long time. At this time, he was forcibly searched by King Henry. He was not worried. He just looked at King Henry indifferently and said: "Your Majesty, if you do this, it will cause trouble."
All nobles are disgusted!"
“Aristocratic antipathy?
Now is the time when the country's survival is at stake. Everyone should share the same hatred of the enemy. Those who have money should take it, and those who have no money should provide manpower!"
"If your Kane family has paid for it, this person doesn't need to pay for it!"
King Henry said with a sneer.
Earl Kane sneered: "Haha! That's good! Since King Henry is so heartless, don't blame our Kane family for being so heartless!"
King Henry stopped talking nonsense with Earl Kane and waited for the soldiers to find the silver and take it away. However, when the soldiers came back, they only took out tens of thousands of taels of silver.
kindness?
King Henry looked puzzled and asked: "What's going on?
Earl Kane is a famous nobleman, how come he only has so little money?"
"This... Your Majesty the King! We don't know that Earl Kane's house only has this little money!"
One person said.
"Earl Kane! Did you hide the silver?"
King Henry said coldly.
"Haha! Your Majesty the King, you are only allowed to rob, but you are not allowed to hide the silver?
I dare say you will never find it!"
Earl Kane said with a sneer.
"Haha! Can't find it?
Then I’ll beat you until you say it!”
King Henry laughed and said.
Then, he punched Earl Kane in the face and asked the soldiers to pull Earl Kane out and beat him until he told him where the money was hidden.
Earl Kane never dreamed that King Henry would be so crazy that he would dare to beat him, the Earl!
ah!
Earl Kane was beaten so hard that he kept screaming for more than an hour. Earl Kane had more than a dozen bones broken from the beating. He gritted his teeth and refused to reveal where the money was hidden.
King Henry had no choice but to hang Earl Kane up and beat him. After more than two hours passed, Earl Kane couldn't hold on any longer and revealed where he had hidden the silver.
King Henry took his people there and found more than 30 carts of gold, silver and jewelry, which amounted to more than seven million taels of silver. It must be said that Earl Kane's family was really rich.
King Henry couldn't really kill a nobleman, so he let someone put him down, and he took the people away to search for the next nobleman's house.
At the end of the day, King Henry raided the homes of three nobles, got tens of millions of taels of silver, and immediately recruited more than 30,000 troops in three days!
There are still more than 20,000 people left in the Roman Empire's army. Adding these 30,000 people, that's 50,000 people. However, this number is far from enough.
King Henry continued to recruit troops, and in order to quickly recruit men, he tripled the soldiers' pay!
This three times would require a lot of money to support, so he could only continue to search the homes of nobles, and those nobles were not fools, and they would never sit still and wait to be killed.
Rather than being robbed of money by King Henry to recruit troops, it would be better to use the money to recruit troops. Anyway, the Roman Empire did not have strict control over iron ore.
Therefore, the nobles themselves had a certain number of weapons and more iron ore reserves, so they increased the number of manpower in their houses.
Several earls even gathered more than 3,000 people, and each of them was given the best equipment, and the armor was made of the finest steel.
With such equipment, even if someone comes to check, they can still fight. Moreover, these nobles are all united with each other, and the total number of them is 20,000 to 30,000.
King Henry was stunned when he heard the news. The nobles were going to rebel!
