Chapter 1140: The Reluctant Holdress
Chapter 1140: The Reluctant Holdress
Holdelis learned that Lyon had come up with a new weapon.
My whole heart has become numb.
"This is unscientific! Why? Why can they have such powerful firepower? And we can only surrender without any help?"
Holdress almost collapsed. He couldn't accept what was happening.
Although the emperor was appointed temporarily, Holdress proved with his actions that he was not a mediocre person.
Under his governance, the Papal States are gradually becoming stronger.
But how can the farming party beat the cheating party?
No matter how Holdress develops, he still can't change this.
It seemed as if all this was destined.
The Great Flame established by Lyon seemed like a mountain, a mountain pressing down on all of them...
No matter how hard Holdress and the others tried, they still couldn't push away the mountain on their shoulders.
Thinking of this, Holdress sent away the people around him.
The last person cried silently.
That’s right, the emperor who didn’t cry when facing the sky-high fine imposed by Dayan finally cried at this moment.
He did not cry when the Wehrmacht defeated the Papal States and forced him to sign a humiliating agreement.
He didn't cry even when faced with the 500 million yuan in compensation.
Even when Dayan's industrial products hit the local market and the local people's lives became miserable, they finally pointed at Holdress's nose and cursed him.
He didn't cry either!
But now, he finally cried.
He cried like a baby.
This is because he finally understood that no matter how hard he struggled, he still couldn't change this ending...
The area controlled by the Great Yan Papal State.
This should have been a very prosperous place, but due to the influence of war, it turned from prosperity to desolation.
But the poorer the place, the more likely it is that accidents will happen.
Due to geographical reasons, no Dayan officials were stationed here.
Almost all of them rely on local garrisons for management.
Because these common people of the Papal States are too extreme.
At the beginning, Lyon sent some officials to manage this place.
As a result, the local people simply killed these officials.
This is simply a slap in Leon's face...
There was no way Lyon would let them go, so he directly ordered the garrison to take over the local government.
Let the troops stationed here manage it.
At the beginning, the First Infantry Army was in charge of this place.
However, due to the influence of the war with the Orc Empire, the First Infantry Army was transferred to the Orc Empire.
So the Second Infantry Army took over here.
As the power is being transferred, the whole controlled area is not very peaceful.
The First Infantry Army came through blood and fire.
However, the Second Infantry Army had basically never experienced any major battles, and most of its soldiers were old veterans.
From the very beginning, they planned to join the army to gain seniority.
After all, the people of Dayan are now the real superior people.
As members of the Zhenghong Banner of Dayan with a good family background, they naturally enjoy many privileges. If they are gilded in the army, they will be able to enjoy even more rights.
So over time, the Second Infantry Army and the Second Armored Army became the gilded existence of the Dayan people.
Leon knew he couldn't stop this behavior.
Because this is the result of the hard work of their previous generation.
If you cannot allow your descendants to enjoy certain benefits, then what is the point of working hard in this life?
Wouldn’t it be nice to just lie down?
No matter you are gilded or honest, as long as you can ensure combat effectiveness and military discipline, you can do whatever you want.
Although the Second Infantry Army did not fight many battles, it still had some combat effectiveness.
Although it is called gilding, these grassroots soldiers still implement Lyon's ideas.
There were no problems with the grassroots soldiers, but there were big problems with the mid-level officers.
The grassroots soldiers and grassroots officers fought each other.
The combat effectiveness of the Second Infantry Army was guaranteed, but the middle and senior officers were getting further and further away from the grassroots.
Because they discovered that the Papal States was really rich!
With just a few clicks of their fingers, they could plunder a large amount of people's wealth from the areas controlled by the Papal States.
The First Infantry Army was united in purpose, making it difficult for the citizens of the Papal States who wanted to send gifts to find a way to do so.
But since the change of power, the top brass of the Second Armored Army has changed...
After the transition of power.
These Papal States merchants decided to try again.
So they sent out some cannon fodder to test the direction of the Second Panzer Army.
As a result, as soon as the gift was given, it exploded!
Because the Second Armored Army accepted it all!
He didn't even report it, he just accepted it all.
This shocked the businessmen.
Is this still the National Defense Force? What are they doing?
The merchants were shocked, but they soon reacted.
Since they have received the money, these businessmen can do whatever they want...
In just two months, various industries in the entire area controlled by the Papal States developed rapidly.
Not only yellow, but also gray...
Public resentment immediately arose in the areas controlled by the Papal States.
These civilians of the Papal States began to miss the First Infantry Army.
The First Infantry Army improved their lives and eliminated local evil forces.
Let the entire controlled area prosper.
These were the exact words of the commander of the First Infantry Army.
“Although I know that war is inevitable, it is very likely that this place will become a ruin because of a war.
But we will still build, because I don’t want to see a ruin when we come and a ruin when we leave.”
The commander of the First Infantry Army thought so.
And his subordinates will naturally carry out this idea.
But there are differences between people...
The Second Infantry Army obviously did not have this awareness.
The city of Holif.
With the help of the Wehrmacht, this almost destroyed city gradually got rid of the shadow of war.
As the city gradually became wealthier, new buildings were built in many places.
The entire city of Holif has been given a brand new look.
The vast majority of people are full of hope.
In their eyes, life will definitely get better and better!
But the people above them don't think so...
Holdress frantically amassed wealth and used it to expand his army.
These businessmen have been ripped off, and they will certainly get the money back from other places.
So they set their sights on the lower class people...
In the city, in a magnificent nightclub.
A young man was being held down by two strong men.
In front of him was an extremely fat middle-aged man.
The fat on his belly can be kicked like a ball, and the fat on his face makes it almost impossible to see his eyes.
"Ceroide, you lent me some money, so you should pay us back now, right?"
The fat man spoke, and although his tone was calm, it was obvious that he was going to kill someone...
