Chapter 242: Troubled Benefit Distribution

In the former rebel camp, a group of kingdoms and national rescue troops were celebrating happily in the city, drinking and bragging in big mouthfuls.

After successfully defeating the rebels in the city, they have been celebrating for three consecutive days, but it is still not enough. It seems that they should vent all the negative emotions such as depression, fear and anger that have squeezed this period of battle as much as possible.

When we came, the kingdom's national rescue army had more than 30,000 troops, and now there are only more than 5,000 people left.

When the rebels knew that they had no choice but to retreat, they burst out with amazing combat power and once again became the powerful army that invaded the kingdom and the national rescue army suffered heavy losses. Many local nobles' private soldiers were almost wiped out.

With such a tragic victory, the soldiers certainly accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction. At this time, the nobles commanding behind were rarely generous, allowing them to plunder the spoils and celebrate in the city.

Of course, the Kingdom's National Salvation Army did not allow soldiers to occupy all the spoils like the rebels, and most of the spoils were taken away by the nobles.

The rebels in the city once robbed the royal city of Cassia. Even though the old nest was plundered by the forces of the ice and snow town sent by Barr at that time, they were still rich and rich after returning.

However, now that we are defeated, the wealth we have obtained from looting will naturally fall into the hands of the Kingdom's National Salvation Army.

Huge interests always cause disputes. The nobles in the kingdom's national salvation army are not charitable. They all use the banner of saving the country, but how many of them really have such ideas? If so, when the royal city was attacked, they should have gone to serve the king, rather than wait until now.

None of them have pure minds, they are all a group of hypocritical people who come for the sake of interests.

For example, these hypocritical people are blushing and ferocious about the distribution of spoils, and they do not have the elegant and noble appearance of the usual noble.

"My Palade family has been working hard this time. There are only less than a hundred people left in more than two thousand people. This time the spoil must be divided into one tenth."

"Fuck, most of your Palade family members died at the hands of that bastard Mshuru, and they didn't play much role in this war. It's still one tenth, and it's good to give you one fiftyth. Don't be shameless."

"That's right, if you want to say one tenth, it should be for me. My people first attacked Fengxue City, and they made an indelible contribution..."

...........

On the stage, Herbert was in a bad mood. The joy of defeating the rebels had long disappeared. At this time, he was like an outsider, looking at the group of nobles below the stage who had almost broken up for the sake of interests.

The rebels in the Snow City of Wind and Snow were defeated. From a strategic point of view, it is the best choice to take advantage of the victory and take down Gilbert's last defending place in one fell swoop.

It’s a pity that the Kingdom’s National Salvation Army was originally composed of a large number of private soldiers of nobles. Now they have disagreements and are unable to make a decision.

During the war, Herbert was able to suppress these nobles by relying on prestige and fist, but when it came to the important part of dividing interests, even he could not prevent these nobles from sharing the spoils. Once forced to stop them, it would be very disadvantageous to the Golden Leslie family behind him.

But Herbert knew in his heart that dividing interests would inevitably be inevitable wherever he put it.

Especially now, each of these nobles has suffered great losses, and many of the private soldiers in their hands have almost been wiped out. If they don’t quickly divide some spoils to recruit soldiers and replenish their troops, they may not even be able to drink soup at the last stop of the Port of Vilia, which was attacking Gilbert.

This is human nature. If anyone dares to stop them at this time, it is their enemy.

The Herbert man was a mature spirit, of course he would not be confused at this time and would do this stupid thing that aroused public anger, even if he wanted to destroy Gilbert's last defending Port Villa, and then kill Gilbert, the rebel leader, with his own hands.

Since it was impossible to stop it, then wait. He believed that after the rebels in Snow City were eliminated, Gilbert had no room for resistance.

But Herbert maintained this idea not long ago. When three warships responsible for blocking the drum kingdom were eliminated by pirates and Gilbert issued new tax regulations, he began to be restless, and an ominous premonition grew in his heart.

In addition to this incident, the Golden Leslie family's pharmaceutical business has had great problems recently, and the interest chain, which had been very stable, showed signs of collapse.

Herbert is not sure who is behind the scenes, but based on the principle that whoever gets the most profit after one thing happens may be the mastermind, he targets the biggest suspect at a young noble duke nearby: the Duke of Maysfield in Ice and Snow Town.

The young duke made a lot of profits in this war. Because the Ice and Snow Town is close to the Snow City, many of the supplies of the Kingdom's National Salvation Army were purchased from the Ice and Snow Town, and even the rebels traded privately with the Ice and Snow Town.

In fact, the rebels were able to persist for so long and so difficult in this war, and the help provided by Ice and Snow Town in secret was definitely not small.

Now that his Golden Leslie family's pharmaceutical business has problems, the drug business in Bingxue Town is in full swing, quickly occupying the Golden Leslie family's pharmaceutical business market share in the magnetic drum kingdom, thus making huge profits.

If it were before, even if Herbert was just suspicious, he would have taken action against this young nobleman. Unfortunately, today is different from the past. Not only does this young nobleman have very powerful power, but there may also be a stronger force behind it.

If the King Leslie family chooses to fight against him head-on, they will suffer heavy losses, and they may even be destroyed.

Herbert had a vague premonition that the Golden Leslie family behind him would have a life-and-death choice.

If you choose well, you may reach the sky in one step. If you choose the wrong one, you will only be destroyed.

"Weakness is original sin. If you don't have the ability to protect so much wealth, keeping it will only cause disaster." Herbert sighed in his heart.

He has been the Minister of Finance of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom for so long, how could he not know what the strongest power of this country is? If it weren't for this power, the Magnetic Drum Kingdom would not have been able to become a wealthy country in the era of the Great Pirates by selling medicine.

Now the person who is the helmsman of this power is not him.

However, Herbert was also very clear about what this power feared. He was ready. Once the results in Rock Island were not as good as he wished, he would start the final response plan.

As a noble nobleman of the drum kingdom, he would never tolerate this beautiful country falling into the hands of the evil and becoming a tool for evil in the hands of the other party.

"Duke of Maysfield, you have been silent since just now. This is not OK. The Ice and Snow Town Army you led has made a lot of efforts in this battle and captured the evil thief Mshuru. It's such a great achievement. How much spoil do you think you should get?"

At this point, Herbert decided to use the current issue of interest division to test the attitudes of Buffyk and the people behind him.
