Vol 8 Chapter 286: The choice of Klotto Katex

"So, the Kingdom of Dionia can only have one power center, that is, the king! It is impossible to allow other power centers to emerge. Otherwise, it will lead to impassable government orders, confusion among the people, and even civil strife! In order to ensure the stability and development of the kingdom, it is necessary. To avoid the concentration of power on a minister, but to disperse it, this involves another must-have ability of the king, that is, checks and balances!"

"Check and balance?!"

"Distribute power and let the ministers restrict each other to form a balance of power..." Daves patiently taught: "If a king is good at checks and balances, he can not only ensure the stability of the kingdom, but also maintain good relations with the minister. friendship……"

For the first time, Klotok Katex listened to Davis to explain in detail how to drive his way down, completely refreshing his understanding of politics, and once he fell into thinking, which led to some embarrassment.

Davers loved his pat on the shoulders of his tender, whispered: "Clotto, don't think too much now, you will slowly experience it in the later administrative affairs... Next, you have important things. To do it, don't go to Sicily with me."

"Why?" Klotok Katex was surprised.

"In my heart, Rome is the most important city in the kingdom after Turif! There is a vast, fertile land than the Sumbali Plain, with a large population and a wealth of various metal resources nearby... In the strategy of expanding northward by the kingdom, Rome is even more important than Turui.

The Romans and the Latins are aliens. They are mainly farming, and they are hard-working, brave, and disciplined. They are one of the best sources of military resources. But they have just been conquered, have not completely returned to the kingdom, and have a lower sense of identity with our royal family. After Aristotle has been here for a few years, I am afraid that the Romans, Latinos, Etruscans, and other races here are more likely to recognize him than our royal family, which is not conducive to Diaonia. The stability of the kingdom!

In order to avoid the drawbacks of Antonios in the Sicilian territory in the past, it is best to have people in our royal family to do things here, on the one hand to supervise Assisi, on the one hand to win the hearts of the people, this is the check and balance! You are almost 20 years old, it is time to take on the heavy responsibility! "Daves said here, no further down, full of hopeful eyes watching his son.

Klotok Katex hesitated for a moment, and the look on his face turned into firmness: "Father, I am willing to stay!"

"Very good!" Davis showed a happy smile, his hand once again patted his son's shoulder: "Although this is your first official official position in the kingdom, I am not prepared to give you a relaxed position. I hope that you will become the low-level construction officer of Rome, assist the construction officer to complete the transformation of the Roman city, the construction of the temple on the Capitolin hill, and the reconstruction of the Roman vertebral bridge... a series of public construction tasks, the next time You will be very busy, are you willing to accept it?"

"Of course I am willing!" This time, Klotok Katex not only did not hesitate, but was somewhat excited. After all, as an aspiring young man, he always hopes that he can shoulder the heavy responsibility.

For Daves, after repeated considerations, he finally decided to let his son become a heavy construction official because the public works will undoubtedly win the praise of the Roman people regardless of urban transformation, temple construction, or road and bridge construction. As a building official, Klotok Katex will undoubtedly share this glory and arouse public attention.

Moreover, these construction projects require a lot of manpower. Most of them come from the Roman people in the slack season. Klotok Katex and their frequent contact can not only understand the people's feelings, but also promote their affection for the royal family of Dionia. In this respect, Davers has no doubt about the charm of his son.

Of course, the only thing that needs to be considered is the security issue.

After Klotok Katex left, Davers stayed in the living room.

Not long after, Emilius hurried in and came in: "Your Majesty, I am coming!"

The slender intelligence leader is sweaty, seemingly exhausted, but looks a little excited.

Davers knew that since the conquest of the Latin region, in order to ensure the coverage of the entire region and the collection of intelligence, under his permission, the team led by Emilius has expanded dramatically, and his affairs have become more important. Busy, but energetic, he is as good as it is.

Daves said straightforwardly: "Amyrius, in view of your contribution to the war between the kingdom and Rome, I appointed you as the intelligence director of the kingdom in the Latin region!"

Although Emilius has been doing this job, it is only officially getting this name. He is still very excited: "Thank you! Thank you! I will continue to work hard!..."

"There is still an important task, you have to do your best to complete it!" Daphus looked at him and solemnly said: "My son, Klotok Katex, will stay in Rome as a junior construction officer. During his stay in Rome, you must try to protect his safety and kill all the signs that are unfavorable to him in the cradle. If something goes wrong."

Davers spoke and said, his right hand was pinched into a fist, and suddenly he hit the wooden table and made a "beep" sound.

Emilius was involuntarily shocked, but he immediately held his right hand and palmed his hand to the sky. He said solemnly: "Hades is on, I am swearing to you! I will do my best to protect Kloto. The safety of His Highness Katax! If there is a slight negligence, I will let my soul be punished into hell!"

Deavers glanced, he did not expect Emilius to do such a decision, because as far as he knows, Emilius is indeed a faithful believer of Hades, he coughed and said: "Good! Wait Klotok Katex safely returns to Turui, and our family will thank you!"

Emilius said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, defending the safety of you and your Highness is what I should do!"

Davers nodded, and Amyrius said that this is the truth. Although the salary of the personnel of the Kingdom’s intelligence department has now been issued by the Ministry of Finance, it has not been incorporated into the Kingdom’s formal jurisdiction, but is directly affiliated with the King. Even Aristilas still holds the title of the court commander and is doing information. The general manager's life, so accurately the entire intelligence department personnel belong to the private court of Dafos, so Dafos will not say much.

When Emilius walked out of the living room, he couldn't help but clench his fists with excitement: Although this task is indeed responsible, it is a rare opportunity to get close to the future king!

Next, Daves called Maltius again and asked him to arrange several loyal and reliable guards for Klotok Katex.

On the second day, Davers returned to the camp of Satnikum, summoned the senior generals and issued an order to them to "make to Sicily."

At the same time, he also issued an order for them to break up and surrender nearly 7,000 Roman soldiers into all units except the Mountain Ridge Reconnaissance Brigade, as well as the Roman reserve brigade.

Although several heads of the army raised objections, they believe that the incompatibility of the Roman soldiers, who are completely unfamiliar with the tactics of the Dionyrian army and even speechless, will lead to a decline in the combat effectiveness of the army.

But Davers insisted on his own opinion and the final order was executed.

..........................................

In the rudimentary hall of the leader's house of Bovianum-vetus, the central town of Kalasheni, the great leader Contruck sits in a sullen sitting next to the fire pit.

The servant took the firewood and placed it in the fire pit, igniting it.

Although it was still in October, the temperature in the mountains has begun to get cold. The aging bones of Contruk have been unable to withstand the cold, but the burning bonfire cannot drive away the cold in his heart.

"The big leader, now the food of our tribe is very scarce. If you don't want to find a way, I am afraid it will not be this winter!" On the other side of the fire, Vainny, the head of the tribal supplies, said with concern.

"Not only is our tribe lacking food, but other tribes are also short of food!" Contruk sighed helplessly, and the two white eyebrows were screwed together, and could not help but imagine: this war, the Karačeni people are Completely defeated! Not only have many heroic soldiers been killed or injured, but they have also lost a lot of supplies. At first, it was possible to organize a large army, indeed because of the assistance of the Carthaginians, but since the failure of the attack on Dani, the changes in the Sicilian battle, and the pressure on the Frentani from Dionia~EbookFREE.me ~ There is no more aid to pass the territory of the Frentani.

In order to be able to carry out the war, the four tribes had to raise food from their own tribes and attacked Campania. One reason was to plunder more supplies, without the obstruction of the Dionyrian army. The Samonets were a great success, but in the end they suffered a fiasco. In order to lead the soldiers to safely flee back to the territory, Contruk abandoned all the materials he had plundered in Benevenvent, and finally let the Dionyns get.

Today, the Kalashini tribe not only killed and injured many warriors, but also spent a lot of supplies, which was a heavy loss in this war.

Contruk slammed his hand and then comforted him. "I have sent people to Pentene to find their great leader Badani and ask him to help us with a batch of food."

"Cough!" Sitting on the side of the high priest, Rongni coughed heavily.

Contruk glanced at him and instead said aggravated: "Although they surrendered to the Dionyns, they are both Samonets and have always been close to us. I believe this will definitely help. ""
