"Your Majesty, the situation outside is getting out of control. I suspect someone is instigating it behind the scenes."
The Minister of Taxation immediately stood up, glanced at the people standing there, and then spoke loudly.
After hearing this, all the ministers turned their eyes to the Minister of Taxation, and their expressions became serious.
"The empire is newly defeated, but someone secretly provokes the relationship between the people and the imperial court. They should be punished!" the tax minister sternly said.
"I request His Majesty to thoroughly investigate this matter and calm the situation down quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
The Minister of Internal Affairs also realized that the Minister of Taxation was pointing at some people by speaking out the matter at this moment, so he immediately stood up and expressed his position.
"Now that foreign enemies are pressing the border, we can't mess up our position. Those who incite the people to make troubles should be killed!"
Emperor Ashinayun is also upset now, and after hearing what the Minister of Taxation said, his eyes are also full of murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, the Xijing Garrison Army turned a blind eye to the people making troubles and disturbing the order. The Garrison Army is responsible for negligence of duty. The general of the Garrison Army cannot absolve himself of the blame. He should be removed from his post and investigated, so as to serve as an example to others!"
Seeing that the emperor Ashina had expressed his opinion, someone immediately stood up and accused the Xijing garrison of negligence.
"Your Majesty, the last general has been wronged. The last general's duty is to be in charge of city defense, and matters within the city are not under the jurisdiction of the last general"
Seeing someone pointing the finger at him, the general of the Xijing Garrison also cursed secretly, and hurriedly stood up to explain.
"That is the governor of Xijing's dereliction of duty, and the governor of Xijing should be removed from his post." The Minister of Taxation added with a sneer.
The general of the garrison saw the sneer on the tax minister's face, and realized that he had been tricked.
I was too busy to disregard the relationship with myself, but I didn't expect to transfer the responsibility to the governor of Xijing.
You must know that the governor of Xijing is one of the main figures of their peace faction, which is much more important than him, the general of the garrison.
Xijing is the capital of the desert empire, and the governor of Xijing is half a level higher than the governor of a province outside.
?The peace faction headed by the governor of Xijing and others opposed the large-scale war and put the people's livelihood first.
The new emperor, Ashinayun, is ambitious and wants to expand. The Minister of Military Affairs Wu Guli and others are also the main fighters, so the governor of Xijing and others have been repeatedly suppressed.
These days, the frontline was defeated, and the governor of Xijing and others stood up to persuade the emperor Ashinayun to send people to negotiate peace with the Far Eastern Empire, and asked to be held accountable for the defeat in the army. Naturally, the main fighters were vigilant.
The main fighters were worried that they would be held accountable and dismissed, so this time they used the common people to make trouble, and put this responsibility directly on them.
"Your Majesty, the people are not making trouble. They are just emotional because their sons were killed in battle. They will be fine in a few days."
The Governor of Xijing saw people, the Minister of Taxation and others attacked him. While cursing inwardly, he stood up to excuse the people.
"Slick tongue!"
"You secretly encouraged the untouchables to make trouble, trying to put pressure on the court to force the court to strike and surrender, but now you are justifying those untouchables. Which side are you on?"
"I suspect that you have been bought by the Far East!"
As soon as the Minister of Taxation said the words, Emperor Ashinayun looked a little colder at the Governor of Xijing.
"You are talking nonsense, my family has served the empire for generations, how could it be bought by the Far East!"
Facing the big hat that was put down by the Minister of Taxation, the governor of Xijing naturally refuted loudly.
"Your family has been favored by the emperor for a long time. Now that the empire is in danger, you don't want to share your majesty's worries, but you always advocate surrender"
This time, the main combat faction saw the opportunity and poured all kinds of dirty water on the main peace faction.
The Zhuhe faction is headed by the governor of Xijing, the general of the Xijing garrison and others, so it is natural to retort.
Facing the quarrel between the two factions, the emperor Ashinayun looked cloudy and uncertain, and soon announced the end of the meeting and let everyone return.
?That night, the general of the Xijing Garrison Army was ordered to be removed from his post by Emperor Ashinayun for investigation in the name of corruption.
? On the second day, the governor of Xijing was also dismissed from his post on the ground of suspected malfeasance and put in prison.
Emperor Ashinayun had also thought about some of the suggestions put forward by the peace faction before, and once wanted to strike for peace.
However, when the Minister of Taxation said that the governor of Xijing and others might be bought by the Far East, this touched his bottom line.
theThe purpose of his wanting to strike for peace is to ensure his family's rule over the desert empire, but if someone takes refuge in the Far East, this will threaten his rule, which he absolutely cannot allow.
He dealt with the leaders of the peace faction at the fastest speed, which also showed his attitude and strengthened his determination to resist to the end.
After Emperor Ashinayun dismissed the governor of Xijing, the general of the Xijing Garrison and others from the peace faction, he immediately replaced them with people from the main battle faction.
This time, the main fighter faction won a complete victory in the internal struggle of the desert empire, so it also took the opportunity to pursue the people of the main peace faction.
In just a few days, some people from the Zhuhe faction were arrested and imprisoned by them under various names.
To ensure his rule, Emperor Ashinayun needed the support of the war faction, and he acquiesced to this.
Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, the main fighters acted even more unscrupulously.
After they quickly attacked their opponents and gained real power in some important departments, they chanted the slogan of defending the empire.
"The peace faction is the capitulation faction. They are the enemies of the empire, and everyone must punish them!"
"The empire is at its most critical moment. Everyone has the responsibility to defend the empire. The empire has entered a wartime state. Everyone must obey the imperial edict. Opponents are traitors, and they will be killed without mercy!"
Guided by these two slogans, the main fighters in the desert empire began to take tough measures.
The garrison troops in various towns were dispatched to brutally suppress the people who protested against the war and the conscription of food.
Facing the unarmed civilians, although most of these garrison teams were conscripted recruits, they still had a huge advantage.
A large number of protesters were strangled in public at the city gates and intersections in various towns, and the bloody heads frightened the people so much that they dared not stand up to protest again.
Later, the tough call-up order came into effect, facing recruiting officials with swords, men and some strong women had to go out of their homes in cold weather and were incorporated into the army.
In a short period of time, under the strong measures of the main combat faction, the order in the desert empire was restored, the scale of the troops recruited increased rapidly, and many new troops were formed and sent to the front line.
At the same time, a large number of war horses, cattle and sheep, food, etc. were also collected, and every warehouse was filled to the brim.
Emperor Ashinayun saw that the main combat faction was so capable, and after being encouraged by his allies, he regained his confidence in winning the Far Eastern Empire.
But Emperor Ashinayun didn't know in his heart that the main battle party was tough on the outside, but it was also tough on the inside.
In order to complete the task of conscription and food, they caused massacres in many places, and some new contradictions and hatreds were brewing inside. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
