Chapter five hundred and eighty seventh a bunch of trivia
Chapter 587: A bunch of trivial matters
On December 13th, the ocean-going transport fleet once again transported Hicks military personnel to the overseas Dominion. However, this time they also transported more than 90,000 people from the entire Thunder Legion. According to the arrangements of the Dominion Military Region, there will be three soldiers of the Thunder Legion.
They will take a month's vacation so that they can reunite with their families, and then set off for the Pamigal National Republic at the end of March next year.
But soon Claude personally issued a military order, requiring the four divisions of the Thunder Legion to go to the four states of the Overseas Dominion, Arturas, Tilsim, Mormali, and Robisto.
The army headquarters was stationed in Lanhu City Camp in Amphiston State. The troops of the Rock Army originally stationed in these four states were sent to Beringana State, Cromwell State, and Vibato Port State.
and Luoqishan Prefecture were stationed, while the legion headquarters headed to Lanhu City...
In this way, except for Amphiston State, each of the nine states in the overseas autonomous territories has a division of officers and soldiers stationed there. The total troops directly under the headquarters of the two legions are almost as strong as one division, and all troops have been deployed.
.So just after the New Year's Eve, on January 10, 607 in the Holy Light Calendar, the Dominion Council and the Dominion Military Region issued an order to severely crack down on local organized underworld criminal operations, referred to as Operation Crackdown.
This New Year is not an easy one for many people in overseas autonomous territories. Generally speaking, local administrative offices in various places will not start normal operations until the 15th of the New Year. But this time, all local administrative offices will be closed before the 10th of the New Year.
Upon receiving the notice, they were required to go to another local town to handle official duties, cooperate with the troops of the autonomous military region in carrying out severe crackdowns, and include the performance of this official duty on the official assessment list.
For the sake of the official hat and the hidden income of gray and black, no matter how bad-tempered the local administrative officials are, they have to obey the orders obediently. They are just handling cases in other places. This has long been the case, and they are administrative officials in all local towns.
They are all being mobilized, and it is not targeted at individuals. So no one will suspect anything. At most, they can just scold the boss for being too full, and come up with such an idea to make this New Year difficult for everyone...
It was only when these local administrative officials arrived at their destination that they discovered that it was a heavily guarded military camp. Before they could settle down, investigators from the Dominion Investigation Bureau came to the door and took away some of them, saying they were
To understand the criminal situation of their local underworld organizations, but these people who were taken away never came back.
Other local administrative officials were not surprised. They could only secretly be glad that they had not colluded with the underworld organization, because these people who were taken away were closely related to their own local underworld, and they were even members of the underworld themselves.
One of the members of the organization. At this time, everyone already knew about the crackdown, so it is inevitable that these guys will suffer...
As the crackdown continues, some administrative officials have been taken away and have not returned. It is said that these people are secretly colluding with local underworld organizations or working for underworld organizations. Nowadays, more and more underworld members are being arrested, and their confessions are also increasing.
More and more situations that were concealed and unknown were confessed, and some even provided physical evidence such as account book dividend signatures. It is understood that most local administrative officials have colluded with local underworld organizations or used each other.
...
Since each state is stationed by soldiers from the Thunder Legion or a division of the Rock Legion under the Dominion Military Region, and all traffic arteries are blocked, the crackdown operations in all local towns are carried out smoothly. The local gangsters are arrested.
The members of the organization are all led by local garrison troops, and most of them can be caught accurately. Even the bosses of the underworld organizations who have been notified by secret lines can escape today but cannot escape tomorrow. The entire place has been blocked, and there is no way to escape even if they want to. On the contrary,
The hidden connections between them were exposed.
There are also some gangsters who are determined to fight to the death. They gather their subordinates to resist, causing certain casualties to their captors. But no matter how hard they resist, they can't resist two people.
The light infantry field artillery brought by the legion officers and soldiers, after two or three shots, the rest are either collecting corpses or taking in prisoners. After all, no matter how powerful the underworld organization is, it cannot resist the regular army, the largest violent gang...
The progress and results of the crackdown operations in various places were quickly summarized and sent to the crackdown headquarters established by the Dominion Military Region through Falcon Eagle messages. According to reports from officers and soldiers performing tasks, there was very little collusion between the officers in charge of the local garrison and local underworld organizations.
, there are only four or five cases in nine states.
However, there are not a few patrol police departments in various local towns who are complicit. More than one-third of them learned about the crackdown plan and tipped off local gang organizations. It is conceivable that the patrol police departments need a major rectification and purge.
Director Xia Zolak, a member of the executive committee of the Dominion Patrol Affairs, had an angry look on his face and felt very embarrassed...
However, the successful arrest of members of the underworld organization does not mean the end of the crackdown operation. The next step is the rectification and investigation of the entire official administration of the overseas autonomous territories. All local administrative officials who have been deployed to other places to handle the crackdown operation must be
Those corrupt officials who were investigated and whose evidence was clear were taken away directly. What awaited them was that their homes would be ransacked and their entire families would be sentenced to serve in hard labor camps. They had enjoyed undeserved happiness in the past and now had to pay the price.
This time, Marshal Bolognik was determined to rectify the administrative issues in the overseas autonomous territories. By mid-February, the entire crackdown operation had entered the final stage. By this time, many members of parliament had come to defend their prisoners with oblique relatives.
The arresters interceded. However, General Bolognik refused and reprimanded the intercessors, telling them clearly that these arrested persons were damaging the cornerstone of the Dominion, and interceding with them was doing him a favor.
I dig into the wall at home, and I don’t even know when the wall will come down...
With Claude's support, Marshal Bolognik was not afraid that the MPs who came to petition would become angry. In fact, the MPs from the Dominion were allied with each other in terms of interests, and they had shares in the monopolized industries of the Dominion.
, such as the two giant industries of railway companies and tobacco workshops. Privately, there are also shipbuilding workshops, brewing industry, paper industry, mining industry, etc., all of which are industries with huge profits.
The MPs are the ruling class of the Dominion. After earning enough income, they consider more the local reputation and the reputation of the family. The reasons for petitions are due to relatives or family pressure. Being rejected and Bolognik
After the marshal's rebuke, they immediately expressed their support for the rectification and inspection of officials, and published articles in major newspapers in the Dominion praising the crackdown and the inspection of officials...
They are all human beings. Marshal Bolognik is still hoping that one of the congressmen will be fooled and confront the Executive Committee because of the arrest of his relatives and connections, so that the Executive Committee will scare the monkeys and cancel his membership quota. It is a pity that
No one gave him this opportunity. Being a member of parliament meant joining the ruling class of the Dominion. No one would give up this coveted position and become Marshal Bologna and Kremlin for a relative who was estranged from his family and made a big mistake.
Lord's enemy.
The severe crackdown and official inspections that ended at the end of February left the entire overseas autonomous territories with a huge gap in administrative personnel. Almost three-quarters of the civil servants were missing. Administrative offices in many local towns can even be described as paralyzed. However, due to the newly implemented
As a result of the crackdown operation, the local security situation is pretty good. The patrol department is not as bad as imagined. After the investigation, half of the personnel are still on duty and can maintain the most basic social order.
While leading the inspection agency personnel under the Executive Committee to hold civil service examinations in various local towns, Marshal Bolognik urged Claude to complete this year's list of retired soldiers as soon as possible. He planned to select outstanding veterans from retired soldiers to fill the vacancies in the civil service.
All of a sudden, both the Executive Committee and the Military Region Headquarters were extremely busy. Fortunately, Claude did not forget to order the officers and soldiers of the Thunder Legion who had completed the crackdown operation to be rotated to make up for their leave, otherwise there would be trouble...
..
In March 607 of the Holy Light Calendar, the biggest task of the Dominion Military Region was to cash out rewards. Most of the huge profits captured from the attack on the Hicks Kingdom had been shipped back to the overseas Dominions, and they needed to be cashed in to give the officers and soldiers the rewards they deserved. This is not just about Thunder.
Officers and soldiers from the Legion, the Storm Legion and the eight Hicks Homecoming Divisions all have a share, but the distribution ratio is reduced accordingly based on battlefield performance and combat merit acquisition rate.
Generally speaking, if a soldier of the Hicks Returning Division can receive a cash reward of ten gold crowns, then a soldier of the Storm Legion can receive twenty to twenty-eight gold crowns, while a soldier of the Thunder Legion can
Obtain a reward of thirty-five to forty gold crowns, because the rules of reward distribution are posted on the wall of the military camp. Which legion soldiers have experienced more battles will be allocated higher rewards...
In late March, the ocean-going transport fleet once again arrived at the Overseas Dominion, and General Murield sent a report from General Albert to Claude. General Albert's Storm Legion is currently stationed in the Kingdom of Breault, leased to
In the Port of Patkara in the Dominion Military Region, the only ones left there are the Storm Legion, eight Hicks Returning Divisions and five to six million Hicks military dependents who have immigrated.
After the ocean transport fleet makes two more trips to transport the eight Hicks returning divisions and military immigrants back to the overseas autonomous territories, the only ones left in Patkara Port are the Storm Legion and the hundreds of thousands of prisoners from the Hicks Kingdom.
Okay. According to the plan, the Storm Legion only needs to leave one division of more than 18,000 men to garrison at Patkara Port, and another 30,000 to 40,000 young prisoners to be responsible for reclaiming the wasteland outside Patkara Port. The remaining three divisions
The regiment will escort all the selected prisoners to the Beibu Gulf Territory of Karnas Prairie to garrison...
General Albert said in the report that the departure of the Thunder Legion made the situation in the Kingdom of Hicks a little unstable. Anyway, the Grand Duke of the North had officially formed a family armed force, which was said to have the size of four standing legions. And the protector of the country
The military forces also have constant armed conflicts on the border with the Grand Duke of Sunset River who occupies Wangjing, and small-scale firefights often occur. As for the SS front that leads the way, they are killing each other, annexing each other's territory, and are the first to start a fight...
....
Let's put it this way, the three largest forces in the Kingdom of Hicks have not officially started a war. Instead, it is the little shrimps like the Patriotic Front who are jumping the most. It seems that they want to wait for the troops from the Autonomous Territory Military Region to evacuate.
The war was only started to prevent the three parties from fighting fiercely, and the troops from the Autonomous Territory Military Region suddenly appeared from behind and gave them a fatal blow. In that case, they would really be finished.
General Albert meant to ask Claude if he really only left one division of the Storm Legion stationed at Patkara Port? He thought it would be better to leave the entire Storm Legion here, which would have a negative impact on the three major forces of the Hicks Kingdom.
They are all threatening, and perhaps this war cannot be fought yet. General Albert is worried that the fight between the three separatist forces of the Hicks Kingdom will affect the construction and development of Patkara Port...
Claude could only shake his head and write a reply to General Albert. In the letter, he told General Albert to resolutely implement the plan formulated by the Dominion Military Region. It would be better if the three separatist forces in the Kingdom of Hicks fought together.
When they have a war, Patkara Port can rest easy. The longer they fight, the more they will rely on the blood transfusions from the Dominion Military Region. Only then will Patkara Port really develop and become another development market of the Dominion.
Blessed land......
General Albert is a pure soldier. When he sees the enemy, his first thought is how to destroy the enemy to protect his own people, rather than using these enemies to achieve any purpose. What Claude and the Dominion Military Region hope is the Kingdom of Hicks
The three major separatist forces can fight fiercely and fight a civil war in the kingdom for several years. The autonomous military region will support the weak and restrain the strong by the side to prevent any force from perishing and maintain the balance of power among the three parties. Only then will the Hicks Kingdom truly lose the hope of unification.
Maybe it can be split into three small countries...
After finishing the reply to General Albert, I received a report from the adjutant Major Fahsselin. The Pamigal National Republic sent another special envoy. They came to urge the Dominion Military Region to send the Thunder Legion to garrison as soon as possible to complete the task.
The responsibilities of allies. After all, the Pamigal people accepted the advice of the Dominion Military District and took the initiative to reduce the strength of the Republic's two standing legions. This time, they felt that they were naked and had no defense power. They arrived at the Dominion Military District when they saw the deadline.
Before the Thunder Legion passed, they anxiously sent a special envoy to urge them...
Claude could only apologize helplessly, because the unexpected mission caused the officers and soldiers of the Thunder Legion to delay their vacation, and now they can only make up for one month of vacation. Claude hopes that the Pamigal envoy will be considerate and give another month.
At that time, the Thunder Legion will be able to gather and garrison in the Pamigal National Republic in late April.
During this month, Claude can guarantee that the Pamigal National Republic will not be attacked by the enemy. Claude is more confident in this point. Because the Dominion Military Region has formed an alliance with the Pamigal people and dispatched elite ace troops.
, the news that the Thunder Legion is stationed in the Pamigal National Republic has long spread in the colonies of various countries on the west coast. No one can imagine that their colonial garrison will attack the Pamigal people, thus attracting revenge from the autonomous military region.
Fortunately, with the exception of the Thunder Legion, which had to delay its journey to the Pamigal National Republic for a month, military assistance to the Pamigal people from other autonomous military regions was delivered as scheduled. Training officers, muskets and weapons and other military supplies have been dispatched.
It was over, so the Palmigal envoy had nothing to say except that he was worried.
A month has passed in a short time. The first division of the Thunder Legion has already boarded the ship and set off for Port Philimuz, which is a seaport city leased by the Palmigals to the Dominion Military Region. The Pamigal envoy also went back with the ship.
, before leaving, he thanked Claude desperately. Claude promised him to deploy the four field divisions of the Thunder Legion in four months at the rate of one division per month.
However, it will take half a year for the Thunder Legion headquarters to set off. Due to retirements and recruitment of new recruits, the two directly affiliated teaching groups of the Legion headquarters, which account for the majority of these recruits, need to complete the six-month training mission for the recruits before they can set off for the Pamigal Nation Republic.
garrison.
After finally finishing all these trivial matters, Claude was looking for a time to take a two-day vacation, but General Boquear came. The purpose of his coming was to ask for money, and the reason for asking for money was very sound and justified. He said that the Security Bureau
He is responsible for the entire overseas autonomous territories, and the Investigation Bureau is also responsible for the entire overseas autonomous territories. Only the Intelligence Bureau he is responsible for establishing has to deal with the entire country of Falea continent. The scope is so vast, why is the funding different from the Security Bureau and the Investigation Bureau?
Same, only one million gold crowns?
Claude smiled bitterly and told General Bockard that the biggest difference between the Intelligence Bureau and the Security Bureau and the Investigation Bureau is that it has autonomy. This autonomy can be reflected in the collection and use of intelligence in business, such as being able to enter and exit in the name of a business bank.
Countries in Farea Continent have successfully deployed spies to the royal capitals and key cities of each kingdom. As for the commercial gains, the intelligence agency is responsible...
In short, in addition to funds allocated by superiors, the Intelligence Bureau can also find extra funds on its own. This is why the Intelligence Bureau covers the largest area, but its establishment funds are the same as those of the Security Bureau and the Investigation Bureau. Claude believes that Boloni
Instead of worrying about how to set up an intelligence bureau, General Ke might as well first form a caravan or in the name of a trading company, organize goods and manpower to go to the Farea continent to do business and spy on intelligence. This is better than worrying about the lack of funds to set up an intelligence bureau in the Dominion.
General Bockard suddenly realized that he was about to leave the office when he was stopped by Claude. Claude told Bockard that it was better to come early than to come by chance. In the past two days, he had just received a hundred-dollar bill handed over by Marshal Bolognik.
The cash draft of 10,000 gold crowns was the result of the crackdown on corrupt officials and the raids on their homes. The total amount was over 3 million gold crowns. After the autonomous army distinguished these more than one million, they could attack the Intelligence Bureau's trading houses.
