Chapter 899: ·The Metropolitan Government

Countless examples have convinced me that God will eventually save those with pure motives.
Mahatma Gandhi (the father of modern India, the greatest political leader of India, the founder of Gandhi)
Prince William of Northwest, who is seated in the four northwestern provinces, is supported by the Duke of Columbus, the imperial military minister. The military superiority of the government of the northwest is not available in other governments; without the threat of external forces, the Governor of the Northwest The military strength of the palace is still strong.
The twelve standing legions in the battle sequence of the Northwest Metropolitan Government were also placed under the command of four warlords; these four newly promoted warlords, two were the confidantes of Prince William, and the two were trained and promoted by the Duke of Columbine. The generals of the army.
General Bailu, who was the heart of Prince William when Bai Feng served as the captain of the coalition, took a year and a half at the position of the head of the 38th Corps, and took his 38th Corps to the Northwest Metropolitan Government. Became one of the four governors of the Northwest Metropolitan Government.
Among the four legions under the command of Lord Clovis, not only is the thirty-eighth legion brought by him, but also the sixty-sixth legion and the eighty-third legion newly transferred to the northwestern metropolitan government, and has been stationed The Second Army in the Northwest Territories!
The Second Legion of the Imperial Army is one of the oldest and most distinguished legions of the Empire in terms of the number; even so, the head of the Second Legion did not take the position of Warlord, but instead succumbed to serving as the Legion. Only under a year and a half Clovis.
Of course, this aspect shows the importance of Prince William to Clovis, and on the other hand, it also proves that the northwestern metropolitan government will have a lot of money; the three generals who are tied with Clovey as the governors are Bennett. General, General Marshall, General Bates.
General Bennett, who was promoted to the governor of the Northwest Metropolitan Government, was the head of the first legionary stationed in the northwest region. He was also one of the absolute confidants of the Duke of Columbine in the Imperial Army. With the formation of the Northwest Metropolitan Government, Three more legions were added under his command.
The confidant of Duke Coulomb and the confidant of Prince William are separated by a layer in any case; and the division of the fifty-ninth, sixty, and seventy-eight legions is to allow Bennett to be the absolute confidant of the Duke of Columbine. It became logical to become the confidant of Prince William.
Bates, the governor of the 17th Army and the 94th Army, were the confidantes of Prince William, as well as the Lord Clovis; from the head of the 94th Army to one of the four major governors of the Northwest Metropolitan Government, It took only half a year for Bates, who was in the top.
Marshall, the overseer of the Fourth Army and the Seventyth Army, was the absolute confidant of the Duke of Coulomb, like the Warlord Bennett. He was originally the head of the Fourth Army in the northern frontier of the Empire. After the northern war, Only then was transferred to the Northwest Metropolitan Government.
In addition to the 240,000 troops of the twelve standing legions, the city defense forces in the four northwestern provinces are also not small. The Calais province, which is the core of the northwestern governor’s palace, is the same as the Lille province under its rule. A regular province in a capital and three counties.
Together with the province of Lance, which owns one capital and four counties, and the province of Noyon, which has one capital and five counties, the total number of city defense troops in the northwestern Metropolitan Government is about 50,000; more terrifying is that the Prince William has not yet arrived Calais, the Northwest Metropolitan Government is already preparing to build the Capital Corps!
The imperial headquarters of the 22 standing legions and 300,000 recruits were just disbanded on the spot. There are too many idle weapons and military supplies that can be used to form a new army; although these weapons are of poor quality, they are handed over to all The use of the government corps is considered to be the best use.
Among the four newly formed Metropolitan Governments, only the Northwestern Metropolitan Government can receive such strong support from the Northwestern Metropolitan Government. The other three Metropolitan Governments are simply wishful thinking if they want to obtain weapons from the Imperial Military Government!
With the support of the Imperial Ministry’s weapons and equipment and military supplies, the Northwest Metropolitan Government, the first time to form the Metropolitan Corps, formed six in one breath; these 60,000 will soon become soldiers of the Northwest Corps, all from the people who have not yet been repatriated. The Imperial Army disbanded the army!
Putting aside the Eastern Metropolitan Government with five Eastern Legions, before the expansion of Prince Harry and Prince Philip and even the Royal Guards, Prince William has built six Northwest Legions; It was quickly pulled away at the beginning.
The Northwest Metropolitan Government, with the full support of the Imperial Secretary of State, has a military advantage that the other three princes cannot match with it, but the other three princes also have advantages; for example, Prince Harry’s financial advantage.
In the three southwestern provinces, Prince Harry, the governor of the southwest, has only seven active standing regiments in the governorate; among the three governors in the governorate of the southwest, Governor Totila and Governor Ferry are the confidantes of Prince Harry, but Governor Randolph. It is a general in the army sent by the military department.
The Randolph Warlord, who was originally the head of the 25th Legion, led his headquarters and the 27th and 85th Legions, stationed in the border area between the southwest of the empire and the White Horse Kingdom; But I heard the announcement but not the tone.
Ferry, who took the position of Warlord as the commander of the Ninety-fifth Legion, relied on the support of Prince Harry and the acquiescence of Charlie the Great, to enlist the most elite third legion in the Southwest; since then, the third with no faction brand The legion became the heir of the southwestern metropolitan government.
The Totila Warlord, which is most valued by the Prince Harry, the 76th Legion and the 79th Legion under his command, are the Legionary Legions that the Prince Harry has spared no effort to control. Prince Harry's side.
Hammond, the new Minister of Finance of the Empire, is the grandfather of Prince Harry. With the support of the Minister of Finance of the Empire as a reliance, the future development of the three southwestern provinces and the growth of the governor's office in the Southwest are still worried about having no money?
As long as there is money, the White Horse Kingdom, which is adjacent to the Southwest Metropolitan Government, and the Principality of Kassel to the west of the White Horse Kingdom, and the Principality of Feiyu to the north, will become trade objects of the Southwestern Metropolitan Government. blood.
The reason why the economic foundation determines the superstructure is understood by all those in power; once the three southwestern provinces are truly prosperous, the southwestern metropolitan government has enough funds to slowly expand more troops, build more sophisticated weapons and equipment, and even form knights. Regiment and swordsman regiment!
Taken together, the main advantage of the Northwest Metropolitan Government is reflected in military strength, while the main advantage of the Southwest Metropolitan Government is reflected in the potential for development; if you let the two capitals continue to develop like this, the longer the Prince Harry Will have a greater advantage.
However, this is not to say that in the future the southwestern metropolitan government will be stronger than the northwestern metropolitan government; countless facts in history indicate that economic power is not necessarily stronger than military power. Can economic power be transformed into Comprehensive strength is the key.
Compared with the great potential of the Northwest Metropolitan Government and the Southwestern Metropolitan Government, the Northern Metropolitan Government and the Eastern Metropolitan Government need to guard against the invasion of foreign enemies. Undoubtedly, there are many tragic reminders; fortunately, the military forces of the two Metropolitan Governments are both It is continued to be supported by the Imperial Army.
Otherwise, only a large army of up to sixteen regiments is enough to collapse the northern and eastern capitals. But for Prince Pross, who had a slight advantage at the beginning of independence, how to support the five Eastern legions It's really a big headache for him.
