I Killed the Dragon

Chapter 11: Aftermath strategy

   Three days later, Gray watched the nobles sadly driving their carriages or riding out of the capital, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

   It took three days and finally stabilized the whole situation. With protons in hand, these nobles did not dare to move.

   These nobles also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they can go back, the glory of the family can be preserved. They are watched by a large number of soldiers every day, and they are afraid that the new king will suddenly slaughter them.

   Those noble successors who were killed by Gray, as expected, many people agreed to his request and were willing to lower their nobility to inherit the fief, and did not dare to question the death of their parents.

  Of course, there are some people who think that their father will never betray, that everything is Gray's lie, and brazenly launched a war, wanting to enter the royal capital to avenge the dead father.

   For these people, Gray mobilized troops to suppress them, and sent people to support the new heirs within them, starting an internal fight.

   An aristocratic family cannot have only one child, but only one definite heir. Others who are not eligible for inheritance, who can say that after enjoying the life of the aristocracy, they are not greedy for the title?

   As long as Gray provokes a little bit and promises to give title and territory, some people are willing to stand up and attack their brothers and sisters.

  Of course, there are also families that are truly united. Faced with such a thing, they directly elect an heir to inherit the title, and then send troops to avenge their father.

   Gray sent troops to suppress it, and it was these united ones.

   Although he has not succeeded to the throne soon, he is endorsed by the old king, and he is known as a dragon-slayer warrior. The soldiers of the old king have turned to him and are willing to suppress rebellion.

  The biggest nobles who rebelled were the Marquis who owns one city. How could it be possible to contend with Gray, who has five cities? Even if the remaining two marquis didn't work hard, he still had soldiers in three cities, and villages and towns twice as many as the nobles. No matter how stubborn they were, the final result was the same.

   Especially among the heirs of this marquis, the internal fighting that has been set off is the biggest, and it is impossible to elect a strong leader.

   In Gray's eyes, this is a mess of loose sand, which can be suppressed soon, even if there is turmoil, it is only temporary.

   After the overall situation stabilized, Gray began to deploy his own people, and entrust the people with merit to the original rebellious territory, let them lead troops to recover and build.

   For the nobles, what is the most important thing, of course, is the territory. That is the foundation of the family. As long as the king dares to give it, no matter where the territory is, they will desperately get it.

Especially the second and third sons of the nobles who do not have the right to inheritance, the desire for the title is unprecedented. Their parents are fine, and the inheritance of the title is not their turn. The only way is to borrow some soldiers from their father, and then Suppress the rebellion to make meritorious deeds.

  Of course, Gray also gave a lot of money and military rewards to those soldiers. For this reason, he also paid a large amount of gold coins. It was heartache.

   When he clearly divided the more important territory, he had nothing to do, but he was very reluctant to throw out a lot of gold coins.

   But fortunately, he is not a real evil dragon, and his love for treasure is not that way. Otherwise, he will not be rewarded, and then the country will be upset again.

   After the reward was given, the soldiers were more motivated, and the resistance of the rebels became weaker.

   In just ten days, the kingdom quickly recovered from the turmoil, and the whole kingdom looked prosperous again. Only a few people were unwilling to fail, abandoning their territory and fleeing in the surrounding mountains and forests, intending to spy in the dark and launch some conspiracy.

   But these people have no threat anymore. If they lose their territory, they also lose their troops. How can they continue to fight against a kingdom?

   And there are many monsters around there. If they don't live in human territory, whether they can survive or not is the same thing.

   At this time, basically everything is set. Many nobles with protons hope that Gray can let their heirs go back. After all, they don't have much threat to Gray.

   After discussing with his father, Gray decided to postpone it. Although everything is set now, we still need to be careful to prevent them from repeating.

   So Gray spoke and let them go back in March.

   Three months are enough to establish the prestige of the new king in the kingdom, so that many people forget the old king, and even if they repeat, it shouldn’t be a worry.

Moreover, the old king is still in his hands. The delicious and delicious confession is not to let him go out and not to communicate with others. Even if the nobles want to find a reason for rebellion, they can't find any good excuses, and they won't be like So united when I first went back.

   Thinking of the united states, Gray suddenly stunned, "Yes, I can put them back one by one, and let those nobles who have the intention of being close to and supporting me first. That fat son is not bad!"

   If they put it back together, they might get together and talk about how to find face.

But I put them back one by one. This one wants to save face, and the other is worried about his son’s hands and feet. When the other one goes back, those who have gone back long ago should not have any thoughts of revenge. Their hearts can’t be together. Naturally resolved.

   After thinking about it, Gray immediately let the fat man’s son be let go. The fat nobleman was named Brio, he was an earl, and he was worthy of getting him.

  And Gray did it secretly.

   After putting the man back, Gray immediately made people let out the wind, and Brio's son was put back, because he secretly took refuge in himself, so he put his son back.

   Of course, the wind was so small that it only reached the ears of the two nobles.

   If it weren't for fear that it would be accidental if it was only passed on to one person, Gray would like to narrow the scope a bit.

   A secret is called a secret only if one person knows it. If more people know, it is no longer a secret.

   Soon, the nobles learned about Brio’s son being put back. Some were angry and accused Brio of betraying them, but others were thoughtful and nodded secretly.

   Two days later, two more carriages quietly left the city and drove to the territory of the two nobles.

   Although their movements are secret, they fall into the eyes of many people.

   The next day, when Gray just got up, someone came to report: "Your Majesty, the Perini family has sent someone to give you a gift, saying it is a gift to congratulate you on becoming a king."

   is the heir of the family after all. How can you rest assured that you have been locked up? Of course, you must return to your own territory as soon as possible to protect yourself.

   Gray went and took a look. There were two small boxes of gold coins, one hundred in each box, which was quite a lot. It was probably a year's income from a wealthy Viscount.

   Although I wanted to play with these Huang Cancan gadgets in my heart, Gray still restrained it.

   brought the heirs of the two families, and returned the boxes to their hands, "This is a gift from your family. I hope you can go back soon."

   "A small gift at home is just a show of loyalty to His Majesty the King, and has no other meaning!" The two hurriedly said in panic.

   For these people, Gray is not as strict as the king, and there is still news that can be passed on to them. They also know that several families close to Gray have been put back.

   "I am not a greedy king. Take these things back. Tell your father, loyalty is the greatest reward for me!" Gray said majesticly.

   "His Majesty the King, we are willing to offer loyalty to you!" the two saluted.

   The two left and told their father after returning to the fief. The dissatisfaction of the two nobles suddenly disappeared a lot, and there was less resistance to the new king.

   Gray's methods were so tough at the time, it was impossible for them to be free from resistance and dissatisfaction.

   But what the aristocracy cares most about, fiefdom, title, interest, as long as these three things can be kept, no matter how big the dissatisfaction can be eliminated.

   Gray does not exploit their interests. In their opinion, he is a good king. What can be done with the little grievances before, as for the old king, which nobleman will give up his own interests for an impossible hope?

   As long as their own interests are not harmed, it makes little difference to them who is king!
