Chapter 1659: ""

The moment you decide your life, you can never deceive yourself.
Aoyama Gangchang (Japanese cartoonist, the pinnacle of "Detective Conan")
After observing the abnormality of Duke Patel, the Duke of Kleist no longer spoke as his military minister, but kept the silence he deserves as the head of the five major families; unfortunately, the Imperial Army has never It is not his military department alone.
The first minister of the military, Marquis Quintus, said with a cold face: "Prince Prime Minister, I do not know what nobles are below, nor do we think that our great empire will perish without these nobles; of course, you can use a large Douguo to refute these words I said, I will not argue with you, but I will let every soldier of the empire know this 173 local nobles and 245 military nobles! "
If you let the generals know that while they are fighting in blood, there are so many aristocrats behind them who are doing the enemy's things, then what they will do is conceivable.
The Duke Patel, who was almost speechless by Kuntus’s remarks, could only hold back his dissatisfaction, and persuaded him: "Marquis of Kuntus, the stability of the empire is not a play. , Everything should be given top priority."
"If the prime minister’s so-called overall situation is to assume that those traitors who betray the empire continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, then they are willing to resign from the first post of the military department, lead a large army, and kill all these crimes for your majesty and the empire. Dead traitor!"
"You!" Duke Patel was almost not vomiting blood on the spot by Marquis Quintus.
Waiting for Duke Patel to say something more, Marquis Moritz, the second minister of the military, also stated: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to resign as the second minister of the military and lead the army with General Quintus. The empire slaughtered all the traitors who betrayed the empire!"
"Your Majesty, although he was not a soldier, he was a nobleman; he believed that the real nobleman was a warrior who could devote everything to the empire in times of distress, not a traitor who ate inside and out of the enemy while worrying about foreign troubles!" Empire The left-faced Duke of Madison's tone is powerful: "The prince's family must have such a traitor.
The order of the first minister of the military, Marquis Quintus, the second minister of the military, Marquis Moritz, and the left, Duke of Medici, were like a signal. Then, the Minister of the Interior, Duke Marcus, and the Ministry of the Interior The second ministers, Marquis Abraham, Duke Salah, Chancellor of the Ministry of Finance, Cunningham, second minister of the Ministry of Finance, and Duke Ribbentrop, Minister of Foreign Affairs, also expressed their attitudes one after another.
When most of the ministers of the ministries made it clear that they would kill these nobles who had passed through foreign enemies, similar to the first minister of the Ministry of the Interior, the Marquis Amble, the first minister of the Ministry of Finance, the Marquis of Crosick, etc. The heavy minister, who had close ties with the old aristocracy, wisely chose to remain neutral and did not stand on the side of the alone Duke Patel.
At this time, if the Duke of Patel placed his senior qualifications of the veterans of the four dynasties and insisted on not executing the local aristocracy and the aristocracy in the army; then he was not persuading, but directly against the emperor. Too.
"Your Majesty, the old minister was confused just now, and I hope His Majesty atoned!" Duke Patel finally chose to compromise.
"The prime minister's government has a lot of business, and the prime minister's age is high. It is inevitable that there will be negligence. How can I blame the prime minister." The expressionless Bai Feng suddenly replied: "For compassion to the prime minister, I decided to involve some of the prime minister's government. The trivial affairs of other ministries are handed over to other ministries to handle by themselves; from now on, the prime minister’s office will no longer be responsible for the affairs of the empire’s internal affairs, military affairs, justice, finance, and diplomacy."
In one sentence, Bai Feng turned the prime minister's government above the ministries into a common department equal to the ministries; the prime minister's government that lost the interference and decision-making power of the ministries' affairs, even if it is still of vital importance Officials have the right to appoint and dismiss, but they can no longer dominate the family.
Among the six central ministries of the empire, except for the newly established intelligence ministry, which was not under the control of the prime minister’s government, the other five were originally governed by the prime minister’s government; That is to say, in disguise, the actual power of these departments is expanded, and the power of the ministers in charge of these departments is increased.
Therefore, Duke Patel and Duke Gurner who had no refusal changed their faces on the spot. Who made them one of the prime ministers of the empire and the other the right of the empire? Looking back at the other ministers, their faces all showed a cheerful expression.
Many incidents were unavoidable, and Duke Auchin Lake, the Minister of Justice, quickly returned to the subject: "Your Majesty, as the Prime Minister said, the 173 local nobles have quite a foundation in the place where their family lives, and we rely on our justice. The officials dispatched by the Ministry may have difficulty in arresting them. His Majesty also hopes that His Majesty will allow the Ministry to mobilize the local garrison to assist our Ministry of Justice officials in arresting them."
"allow!"
Now that the decision to execute all the traitors has been finalized, the Duke of Crest, who has a dual identity, naturally has no need to worry about anything. He made an outspoken request: "Your Majesty, the local nobles who communicate with foreign enemies, our army It is no problem for the Ministry to deploy local garrison troops to cooperate with the Ministry of Justice officials to arrest; as for those noblemen who are in the army, they should be executed by our military department."
The army has always been a place of great honour and very exclusive, letting the officials of the Ministry of Justice enter the army to arrest 245 military aristocrats who serve as middle and senior military officers in the army. This is the Duke of Krest. Can't accept things.
In fact, this matter is not only difficult for the Duke of Crest, as the Secretary of the Empire, but also other senior military generals cannot accept such a result; so much so that Duke of Crest just made his request, Lian Long Duke Dested, a military marshal who was loyal to Bai Feng, took the initiative to stand up and support Duke Kleist in this matter.
Bai Feng, who has a deep affection for the army, cannot possibly destroy the sense of honor that the reconstructed imperial army has fought with after a hard battle because of judicial justice that does not exist at all; therefore, he agreed without hesitation The requests made by the generals collectively.
Among the 245 military aristocrats suspected of being foreign enemies in Litong, there are 18 joint captains at the Viscount level, 49 captains at the Baron level, and up to 178 captains at the Cavaliers level; Although these three ranks of officers are the largest group in the Imperial Army, they are also the mainstay of guaranteeing the fighting power of the Imperial Army. They need to be handled with caution.
Because Duke Krest’s previous performance made him lose Bai Feng’s trust, Bai Feng directly rejected his initiative to invite him, and instead appointed the first minister of the military, Marquis Quintus, who was solely responsible for handling the matter and letting The prestigious Marshal Ronderstad assisted.
