The King

  Chapter 190 Power Vortex

  After a burst of screams, Hudson took away the full amount of supplies, leaving only the quartermaster with missing arms and short legs, wailing in place.

  The price of not having eyes. Hudson, who has just arrived, just needs to find someone to show his prestige, and this guy comes to his door by himself. Who is to blame?

  The tragic situation of the quartermaster was naturally deliberately arranged by Hudson. Otherwise, with Bear Stearns' style, a bear's paw will turn a person into a meat paste.

  Now people are not reduced to a pulp, but their limbs are reduced to a pulp. With such an injury, even if he is rescued, his vitality will be exhausted, and he will survive for a few days.

  In order to prevent the quartermaster from dying early, Hudson deliberately cast magic to stop the bleeding for him.

  Negative teaching materials, the living are often more educational than the dead.

   Besides, if you are away from home, you have to give the host a face. Killing people directly, everyone will lose face.

  This disposition is just right.

  Even if it is passed on, it is the responsibility of the quartermaster himself. The military supplies are shoddy, and it is not too much to just be beaten.

  Although the beating was a little bit "billion", it didn't hurt. It's normal for the Earth Bear to be unable to grasp the severity.

  People can negotiate slowly, but it doesn't mean that monsters also need to negotiate. Dare to deduct the rations of Warcraft, this unknown quartermaster deserves to be unlucky.

  It's embarrassing to think about it. I acted too fast just now, and forgot to ask the name of the unlucky guy.

   Hudson led the supplies and patted his **** away, but the bureaucrats in logistics exploded.

   I haven’t seen such arrogance in many years, and they simply don’t take their logistics department seriously.

  If you don’t check, you don’t know, and if you check, you will be dumbfounded.

   "Guest Army", they came here to help, and they are not bound by the military law of the Principality of Moxi at all.

   It was just a quartermaster being beaten up. Even if such a trivial matter was brought up to the top, there is a high probability that it would be turned into a small one.

  The most important thing is that they violated the taboo by distributing moldy grain as military rations, which could not be brought to the table.

   If there is a trouble, Hudson, who is a meritorious minister, will not be unlucky. Anyway, a large group of people in the logistics department will be unlucky first.

  Earl Sanford, who is in charge of front-line logistics, now has a gloomy face.

  Dare to make trouble like this, it is clear that you are not someone to mess with.

   Now it is not a question of whether their logistics department will find trouble with others, but whether Hudson will continue to make trouble.

   Distributing moldy food to the guest army as military supplies, if this kind of thing goes up, it is a proper diplomatic event.

   Falling into the eyes of the Alpha Kingdom, this is not paying attention to them.

   Now the Principality of Moxi is counting on reinforcements from various countries to save its life. If something like this happened, there must be an explanation!

  Although many dignitaries in the principality have a share in the benefits of military supplies, he, the person in charge, is responsible for the blame.

   "Gio, is that idiot dead?"

   Earl Sanford asked angrily.

  Deep in his heart, he had greeted the bastard's family countless times.

   It’s fine to take advantage of it in normal times, but you have to keep your eyes open!

  Others may be concerned about the network of contacts involved in the logistics department, worrying about offending someone they shouldn't provoke.

   There is nothing to be afraid of the guest army from outside the country, and they are not in the Principality of Moxi.

  If you want to wear small shoes for others, it depends on whether they buy it.

   In a hurry, they directly put down their picks on the battlefield.

   Made a mess, and the Principality of Moxi had to take care of it.

   "Your Excellency, the poor Viscount Gio has just been rescued and is in a very bad state.

  According to the pastor, it was because the bear hit too hard, hurting his vitality and consuming too much vitality.

  Unless we can find a treasure to restore vitality, our Viscount Gio may not have a few years to live. "

  After hearing what the chief guard said, Earl Sanford slammed the table and shouted coldly:

"Humph!"

   "It is a disgrace to the nobles of the principality that this idiot is still alive after causing a catastrophic disaster at this juncture!"

  It's all the truth, Sanford really wants this subordinate to die now.

  If Viscount Gio died on the spot, the matter would be settled easily.

   Killing a noble is also a big event. The two parties have a handle on each other, so they just cover up the matter and it's over.

  It's a pity that Viscount Gio survived, so everything will be different.

   Beating up a corrupt nobleman is not a crime at all. If you want to get rid of the blame, the Alpha Kingdom must be willing to accept it.

  Although the two countries need each other now, the Alpha Kingdom is obviously on the stronger side and has a greater right to speak.

   It's not that Earl Sanford didn't think about murdering and silence, but he just didn't dare to implement it.

  Assassination of nobles is a very taboo thing.

   Knowing that there are too many people living in Viscount Gio, and all of them were silenced, the impact is too great.

  Once the news leaked out, he would be finished with it, no amount of backstage could cover it.

  Seeing this scene, the chief guard at the side immediately realized that something was wrong.

  In the past, when the officials of the logistics department clashed with the front-line officers because of the distribution of military supplies, Earl Sanford always supported his own people.

   He had never been so panicked in the face of a front-line officer, no matter how old he was. Only this time, when he lost his temper, it was obvious that something serious happened.

   Realizing this, the chief guard directly mourned for Viscount Gio.

  Just when I was about to make a big fortune, I bumped into the hardest iron plate.

   Not only is there no hope for revenge, but even whether he can spend the rest of his life safely has become an unknown.

  In an instant, he made a decision to cut off the Viscount Gio who was about to die.

   It's just a pity that the generous gift I received just now, I haven't had time to open it to see what it is, and now I have to return it.

   "Your Excellency, now that something has happened, it will not help to pursue responsibility.

  The crux of the problem lies in Earl Hudson. If he can be made to keep his mouth shut, this incident can be regarded as nothing happened.

   The disaster was caused by Viscount Gio, so naturally he should be responsible for the aftermath.

   If he can't handle this matter, we will spend more favors and ask Viscount Raquel to come forward to make peace. "

   It's not a discovery of conscience, it's mainly because you have to do things after receiving the gift. This is a matter of principle.

  Even if it can’t be done and the gift is returned in the end, you have to try it first.

  Viscount Gio can buy him as the head of the guard, and he can also buy other people.

   There has never been a secret in the logistics department. If Viscount Gio knows that he has nothing to do, and he is bitten out by breaking the jar, it will be a big trouble.

  Anyway, he has given his idea now. As for whether Viscount Gio can seize the opportunity, it has nothing to do with him.

  …

  In the camp, Marshal Hodge is fighting at night.

  As the commander-in-chief of the front line, there are endless affairs to be dealt with every day, which is commonplace.

   After approving the last official document, Marshal Hodge slowly raised his head and asked the adjutant beside him:

   "I heard that the famous Earl of Hudson had a conflict with the logistics department. Where is the progress now?"

   I have to admit that the speed of news transmission in the military camp is fast.

   The day was not over yet, not only the officials of the logistics department received the news, but even the frontline commander also knew.

   From the questioning of Marshal Hodge, it can be seen that he hopes to make a big news.

   The problem of logistical corruption in the Principality of Moxi has plagued the military for many years.

   It's just that the interests involved in it are too complicated. Even if he is now the commander in chief of the front line, Hodge has no confidence to get rid of this cancer.

  Don't dare to move yourself, it doesn't mean you don't want others to move.

  As a guest army, the Wright County Legion has nothing to do with these interest groups, so it is undoubtedly a good pawn.

   It involves the logistics of reinforcements. Once things get serious, the Alpha Kingdom will definitely get involved.

   At that time, it will become a matter between two countries, and it will even attract more countries' attention. If you want to cover it up, you won't be able to cover it up.

   In the face of the general trend, not an interest group can handle it.

   Pulling out this cancer is definitely a great thing for the Principality of Moxi.

   "Marshal, Earl Hudson has returned to the barracks since the daytime quarrel, as if he didn't take it seriously at all.

  The injured Viscount Gio was rescued by a priest. It's just that the state is a bit bad, and I'm afraid I can only retire early.

  The logistics department was a bit complicated. Some officials clamored for revenge, but they were scolded **** by Earl Sanford.

   It is estimated that he wants to deal with it coldly, and retaliate after the storm passes. "

  After hearing what the adjutant said, Marshal Hodge laughed, then shook his head and said:

   "Harley, you guessed wrong this time.

  The handle fell into someone else's hands, and that old fox Sanford didn't have the guts to retaliate.

   Besides, even if he wants revenge, what can he do?

   Is it possible that you dare not send supplies to the Wright County Legion?

  Don’t say that the materials are not distributed, even if the materials are only a few days late, the Alpha Kingdom will protest to the capital.

   It involves the life and death of the kingdom, and the king pursues it, but the board will be hit on himself.

   If I guessed correctly, he should be busy trying to figure out a way to make big things smaller and small things smaller.

   After all, losing face is better than losing life. "

   The interest groups involved in the logistics are indeed large, but these vested interests only want to reap the benefits, but are not prepared to drag the Principality of Moxi to hell.

  Even in ordinary times, the benefits are mostly shoddy, and no one is foolish enough to take all of them and make the frontline officers and soldiers hungry.

  Not pushing people to a dead end, that's why they've been able to make a lot of money.

  In addition to this, watching people order food is also a compulsory course.

  Generally speaking, 80 to 90% of the logistics supplies of the main force of the principality can be received, and it is not surprising to meet some powerful generals to get all the shares.

  The real unlucky thing is the large number of cannon fodder corps, their own strength is poor, the right to speak in the army is not high, and there is no capital to make trouble.

   Detaining the supplies of one's own people, that's all.

  Wright County Legion, which is not easy to mess with at first glance, is obviously not in the category of materials that can be embezzled.

  Looking at the situation along the way, we can see that no one of the officials who are responsible for providing supplies along the way dares to cheat.

   Being able to do this is obviously because the interest groups behind have no idea about this part of the material. When this kind of problem occurs on the front line, it is obvious that some people have made their own claims.

  The interest groups behind it didn't benefit from it, so naturally they wouldn't stand up for them.

   Something happened, and all the bureaucrats in the logistics department, including Earl Sanford, had to bear the consequences themselves.

   Seeing all this, Marshal Hodge quickly became worried again.

  Wrightshire Regiment is a good knife, but he is not a knife holder.

   Want to make Hudson make trouble, he still lacks enough chips in his hand.

  Although the name of the front-line commander is resounding, under the heavy checks and balances, his actual power has not reached the point where he promises.

  …

  In the camp, Hudson, who was eating a big meal, had no idea that he had inadvertently fallen into the vortex of power struggle.

   What happens during the day is just a small episode in life. If he didn't want to stand up, he could have solved the problem in a more civilized way.

  For example: on the grounds of distributing moldy food from the Quartermaster Office, it was announced that the Wrightshire Army had been neglected on the front line, and they left directly.

  Forcing reinforcements from the front line, this kind of political event cannot be undertaken by the bureaucrats of the logistics department.

  Just take a stand and keep those greedy bureaucrats scared to death.

   Another example: using the diplomatic language agreed by the two countries to talk about the matter, and labeling it a big label of tearing up the covenant, can also make the quartermaster obediently obey.

  So many civilized methods were not used, but the most violent method was adopted to solve the problem, which was also unlucky for the quartermaster.

   "Your Excellency, Chief of the Legion, Viscount Gio is visiting."

  After listening to the chief guard's words, Hudson kept recalling in his mind, but he still couldn't find the memory of Viscount Gio.

  No impression, that means not friends.

   When a stranger came to visit, he didn't have the time to receive him, so he waved his hand and said:

   "Tell Viscount Gio that I'm not free right now, and I'll tell you directly if I have something to do.

   In the future, when encountering such strange visitors, they will always deal with them in this way.

  Of course, there are exceptions for some well-known figures, or nobles who are earls and above. "

   If it were in the Alpha Kingdom, Hudson would definitely not be so snobbish, but this is the Principality of Moxi.

  Being friends with a group of small and medium-sized nobles is purely meaningless social interaction and has no effect on future development.

  The prerequisite for being a corporal of courtesy and virtue still comes from value.

  With that free time, Hudson would rather catch up with the knights under his command than make friends with a strange viscount.

   "Your Excellency, Legion Commander, the Viscount Gio outside is the quartermaster during the day. Looking at the large pile of gifts he is carrying, it seems that he is here to make amends."

  Hearing this unexpected answer, Hudson was a little confused.

  Recalling Viscount Gio's tough look during the day, he thought it had something to do with it. How could he soften so quickly after being beaten.

  According to the usual practice, those who can act as quartermasters are all related households.

   When there is a conflict, it usually hits the younger ones and provokes the older ones, and then gains experience along the way to gain power.

  Even Hudson prepared a way to deal with the difficulties and conflicts that would occur later, but it turned out to be such a play of apologizing, which was really unexpected.

   "Bring him in!"
