MTL - The King-Chapter 309 Game behind the scenes

  Chapter 309 Game behind the scenes

   "We called everyone here today, mainly for one thing - to fill in the deficit in the accounts!

   Everyone must have heard about the investigation team. It's not a rumor, the Kingdom and the Terran Alliance have now sent investigation teams, and they will arrive at the front line soon.

  Everyone is the specific executor of the logistics and transportation of the coalition forces. I think everyone knows what I have done since I took office, and whether I have been greedy for Mexican military supplies.

   Losses during the transportation of logistics materials will inevitably happen. Due to various emergencies on the battlefield, it is normal for the occasional wear and tear to exceed the limit, and the outbound and inbound data will not match.

  These are unspoken rules in the military, as long as the limit is not exceeded, generally no one will pursue it.

  But this time is an exception. Some people smack inside and outside, and the unspoken rules of the general have been brought to the surface.

   Now the Alliance Council is going to get serious with us. Then there is no way, whoever is responsible for the deficit in the area will be responsible for the aftermath.

   I don’t care whether it is trying to make up for the shortfall, or finding a reason to explain to the investigation team.

  Anyway, the problem must be solved, and we can’t let everyone be dragged along with them, and be spurned by the world under the reputation of being greedy for ink and reselling military supplies!

  I will give you ten days. After ten days, the logistics department will organize personnel to conduct self-examination. Whoever is in charge of a deficit in the area will be responsible for it.

  The matter this time is very serious, and the problem cannot be settled by launching a few scapegoats.

  Any fluke mentality will end up harming others and oneself. Once the investigation team finds out the problem, it will kill people!

  If you have any questions, you can ask Duke Pias. I want to come to Your Excellency the Duke, and I will give you a satisfactory answer here! "

  At the military meeting of the Logistics Department, Hudson said indifferently.

  The investigation team of the Terran Alliance came here not purely to investigate the reselling of logistics supplies, but there is a greater political significance behind it.

   Otherwise, even if there is an investigation, people from several countries responsible for logistics and transportation will be recruited and sent to investigate together.

   Unfortunately, what Hudson heard was that the Terran Alliance sent an investigation team alone. They even excluded people from the four northern countries from the investigation team on the grounds of avoiding suspicion.

   Hudson is not surprised that the Principality of Mosi, the Kingdom of Warhammer, and the Principality of Orton received such treatment, but targeting the Kingdom of Alpha in this way is a bit too much.

  As the most powerful country in the north, the Alpha Kingdom is also a powerful force among the entire human race. Even though his vitality is seriously injured now, he is still a big force among the human race.

  Under normal circumstances, with the status of the Alpha Kingdom in the Human Race Alliance, it is impossible for everyone to do things so absolutely.

  After all, since the coalition forces launched the counterattack to the present, there have been no major omissions in logistics, and the performance of the logistics department is absolutely excellent.

  In this era where heroes are judged by results, even if someone makes a report, the Alliance Council should suppress the problem first, and then slowly investigate after the war is over.

   Now that the investigation is being carried out in such a hurry, if the problem is really found, is it possible to replace all the excellent logistics department?

  Even if the investigation team has the courage, who can guarantee that after the replacement, the successor can do better than now?

   In case of a mess up later, because the logistics can't keep up and kill the coalition forces on the front line, who will bear the responsibility?

  In the world of nobility, there has never been an absolute right or wrong. The performance of the Alliance Council at this moment is obviously aimed at the distribution of benefits after the war.

  Whether they want to admit it or not, the Alpha Kingdom contributed the most to this war, followed by the Moxie Principality and the Warhammer Kingdom.

  According to traditional practice, the country that pays the most should also take the biggest piece of cake.

   There is no doubt that this is just an ideal state. As early as countless years ago, this model of fair distribution according to contribution was broken by a group of unruly guys.

  This time is no exception. It is one thing for everyone to look down on the orc prairie, but it does not mean that everyone is willing to see that the Alpha Kingdom continues to expand to the orc prairie.

  If there is a fair distribution, the Alpha Kingdom can take at least one-third of the orc prairie, which is equivalent to doubling its territory.

   Such a large territory, once it is developed. The Alpha Kingdom is really going to grow, and there is no force in the northern land that can check and balance them.

  Even if Caesar III made a promise to give up the territorial claim on the orc prairie, everyone still can't rest assured.

  It is just a verbal promise, which can be voided at any time. What's more, the Alpha Kingdom does not take an inch of land, which does not mean that the nobles of the kingdom do not participate in the division of spoils.

  Even if a new country is divided, the broken bones are still connected. Relying on its geographical advantages, the Alpha Kingdom can still slowly annex the orc prairie.

  For the purpose of strategic checks and balances, other major human race forces must take action. Originally, everyone was still worrying about finding a reason to kick the Alpha Kingdom out of the game, but they didn't expect the opportunity to come right to their door.

  As long as the fact that a group of nobles in the Alpha Kingdom participated in reselling strategic materials is confirmed, then everyone can logically kick them out.

  Without the leading party, even if the Alpha Kingdom regains its strength, it will be difficult to complete the expansion to the orc prairie under the attention of the major forces.

  The insider truth is all Hudson's personal speculation, so it is naturally impossible to say it openly.

   All the nobles present, even if they don’t find the problem now, they will slowly figure it out after a while.

   But you know what you know, and this does not prevent Hudson from making use of the topic to draw hatred to Duke Pias. Since it is a world feud, it is natural to hate.

  Perhaps sensing the unfriendly gazes of everyone, Duke Pias hastily explained: "Earl Hudson, I am also confused about this matter.

   To tell you the truth, the report to the alliance has nothing to do with the Lochnard family, and even I only found out about it recently.

  After receiving the news, I ordered the recall of that idiot Geoff immediately. It's a pity that it was still a step too late, and the person involved had already disappeared in the Frankish Kingdom.

  According to the investigation of Geoff, we found that he has been in contact with many forces recently.

  The most noticeable thing is the cult July meeting.

   Geoff suddenly reported to the Alliance Council without informing the family, probably because he was controlled by a cult organization! "

  There are many suspects, but the best one to bully is July Club. In the absence of evidence, Duke Pias did not dare to offend anyone casually, so he could only pick out this soft persimmon.

   "Duke Pias, are you sure you're not joking?

   Everyone must be aware of how strict the review by the Alliance Council is. It is simply impossible to use evil methods to control congressmen to mix into the venue.

  Even if it was the handiwork of the cult July Society, it was because of Geoff's active cooperation that it was possible to avoid the inspection.

The    person belongs to the Lochnard family, and represents the Lochnard family's seat in the alliance. Now that something has happened, just say it doesn't matter, do you think this is reasonable? "

   Earl Pierce asked angrily.

  As the most pitiful existence, he no longer cared about the previous agreement with the Lochnard family. For this kind of pig teammate, he has lost interest in continuing to unite.

   It is important to hit Hudson, but it also needs to pay attention to methods. Even if he reported to the kingdom that Hudson was greedy for military supplies, Earl Pierce would accept it.

   This kind of disagreement directly pierced the sky and initiated a report to the Human Race Alliance Council. He really couldn't figure out what the Locknard family wanted to do.

   He didn't believe a word of Duke Pias's explanation, or he didn't want to believe it.

  Geoff is a core member of the Lochnard family, and also holds an important position as a member of the alliance, so he will definitely not lack expert protection by his side.

   It is very difficult for people from the July Society to get close to him, let alone use evil methods to control him and manipulate him to initiate a report in the Alliance Council.

  If it had been so powerful, the July Society would have turned the Alpha Kingdom upside down long ago, and it wouldn't be a cult organization until now.

  Even if you want to get rid of the blame, you have to choose a strong character, which is easier to be accepted by everyone.

   "Your Excellency, although the matter may seem unreasonable, it is indeed the truth.

  伱Think about it, report the coach to the league council, such a taboo thing, what good does it do me? "

   Duke Pias tried to explain.

  He really can't bear this pot. From the murderous eyes of the nobles, it can be seen that today's meeting is a "Hongmen Banquet" against him.

  If the explanation is clear, the Lochnard family is still a great nobleman in the Alpha Kingdom;

"Humph!"

   After a cold drink, Earl Pierce, who regained his rationality, did not continue to launch an "offensive".

   After all, there is a common enemy. If the Locknard family is really killed, it will not be of any benefit to the Dalton family.

   Seeing this scene, Hudson smiled knowingly. It is undoubtedly the most trouble-free way to let the two enemies confront each other.

  The estrangement has been buried. In the future, if the two want to cooperate again, it will not be so easy.

   "Duke Pias, since you have given an explanation now, I will trust you for now.

   But the matter was caused by the Lochnard family after all, and the responsibility that should be borne is still indispensable.

  My request is not high, as long as the Locknard family can make up for this loss, I don't have to worry about this matter! "

  Count Calais's skillful supplementation undoubtedly reminded all the nobles present.

   Regardless of whether there is a black hand behind the scenes, the Locknard family must be responsible for this matter. Otherwise, where will everyone go to make up for their losses?

  July Society, the kind of cult organization that is so poor that it can only die. Even if they were caught, they wouldn't have the money to pay everyone for their losses!

   "Carles is right, this incident was triggered by the Lochnard family, so they must be responsible for it.

  My request is not too high, as long as His Excellency the Duke can get enough strategic materials and balance the accounts with us, the matter will be over! "

   Count Martinez said with a smile.

  In the blink of an eye, the third of the kingdom's twelve fiefdom earls forced the palace, and Hudson also roughly saw the existence of the circle.

   There is no doubt that these three are clearly politically united. Otherwise, they wouldn't jump out at this time and attack the Lochnard family together.

   In a sense, this was also forced out by Hudson. Originally, everyone was just looking after each family, trying to make up for the shortfall.

  But with the clarification of the mission by Hudson just now, everyone not only has to make up for their own shortfalls, but also has to pay the debts of the younger brothers under their command.

   Without any accident, Earl Pierce became the biggest unlucky person. They are also nobles in the southeastern province, and have a lot of old friends and relatives. Naturally, Hudson will not take less care of them.

  Earl Pierce received a fat job, and his younger brother also received a fat job. How cool it was when reselling strategic materials to make money, how miserable it is now when filling the pit.

  To suddenly spend a huge amount of money to make up for the shortfall, even the big nobles would be hurt, let alone the small and medium nobles.

  The little brothers have no money, so they can only choose to show bad. The task of filling the hole fell on the boss.

  The pit stepped on by the nobles in the southeastern province was too deep, and the hole left was too large. Even the wealthy and powerful Dalton family could not afford to take the pot.

   Under desperation, Earl Pierce could only bite the Lochnard family, hoping to let the person directly responsible share the loss with him.

   The herd effect is obvious. After someone took the lead, all the nobles present jumped out one after another, claiming damages from Duke Pias.

  …

   "Everyone, please be quiet first. The Lochnard family is certainly to blame for this matter. It is only natural for them to take responsibility.

   But the reality, now also has to be considered. The biggest problem at present is the hoarding of profiteers, which leads to skyrocketing prices.

   Want to solve this problem, I think Earl Hudson, there should be a better way! "

  From the moment Duke Cavadia stood up, Hudson knew that what should come would eventually come. It's just that I didn't expect it to be so rude and simple.

   "Don't look at me like that, everyone must know what the trading platform represents.

  Anyone who has the confidence to do it should do it himself, I haven't lived enough.

   Profitable merchants are not profiteers. Second, you should know how the goods on the black market come from.

  After such a long period of scattered transactions, most of the strategic materials flowing out of the army were scattered and sold to mercenaries, and it is estimated that they have almost been consumed by now.

  Businessmen are not fools, even if there is a stockpile, it is impossible to have too much. Before that, no one knew that there would be idiots reporting to the Alliance Council.

  It is impossible to plug up all the holes for everyone with the few goods on the black market alone, and it may not even be able to fill a quarter of the holes.

  If you want to balance the accounts, you must have a new source of goods. It is too late to transport from the rear, and everyone should know who is able to sell strategic materials now.

   There are two options in total, either you initiate your own connections and find a way to acquire strategic materials from them; or let the merchants do the transfer.

  Of course, anyone who thinks they are strong enough can ignore the will of the coalition forces, or consider some idiot's proposal. "

   Hudson mocked unceremoniously.

  Dare to be a banker in the black market, how could he be unprepared? This kind of shady business is destined to be hidden in the dark and cannot be verified.

  False and true, real and false.

  As long as Hudson himself doesn't say how many forces are behind the trading platform, no one can figure it out.

   Just like now, he can unscrupulously pull on the tiger's skin of the coalition forces. Wanting to take the opportunity to put pressure on him is purely funny.

  The most direct characteristic of a great noble is that they have a big family and a big business. When doing things, you need to look forward and backward, and you can't let your temper do it.

  Even if you want to overturn the table, you have to see who is sitting on the table first. There are many sources of goods in the black market, Hudson is engaged in vests, and he is recruiting chambers of commerce, who can tell the difference?

  Including the sales employees in the trading center, they don't know who they are working for.

  Even who the real owner of the goods is has not yet been figured out, so no one will act rashly.

  If you accidentally **** the wrong person and hit the iron plate, you will have to pay the price in blood.

  Glaring at Hudson fiercely, Duke Cavadia forcibly suppressed his anger. Reason told him that now is not the time to turn his face.

  Deep in his heart, he had already cursed himself for being stupid. He didn't even know the enemy's hole cards, so he ran out foolishly to stand up for his allies.

   Now the topic has been successfully shifted, but the way everyone looks at him has also changed. The look of caring for the mentally retarded really made him uncomfortable.

   There is no doubt that today's incident will have a huge impact on his reputation.

   Labeled "stupid", the appeal in the aristocratic circle will inevitably be greatly reduced in the future.

  Unfortunately, the analysis of the sequelae does not mean that he will be able to counter it. The painstakingly prepared offensive was resolved by Hudson before it had time to ferment.

  The next question for everyone to consider is not whether to take away the black market and get back the materials sold before; but to find a way to make the black market merchants continue their efforts and raise more strategic materials for consumption.

   The price issue, that's only secondary. The key is to have enough strategic materials in the market to help them gamble on the gap.

   If you want to extract strategic materials from the coalition forces, you don't have to have money.

  Falsely reporting war damage, people also need to bear the responsibility. Especially in a short period of time, the risks are increased.

  Nobles who love their feathers don't care about them at all. After all, doing this kind of business is exposing your own handle.

  The most suitable operation is to let businessmen with backgrounds transfer them. How to operate is not important, the key is to have strategic materials.

   "If you have no better suggestions, then next, let's follow Earl Hudson's suggestion!

  In a word, everyone must plug the holes they made as soon as possible. This is what His Majesty the King meant.

  The investigation team sent by the Kingdom will arrive in ten days. I hope that everyone will have filled in the gaps by then, so as not to make us feel ashamed. "

  Marquis James on the side opened his mouth and added.

  …
