king of ros

Chapter 333 Personnel Adjustment
Lev's body was quickly taken to Moscow, before Rostislav.

On the day when the body of the pagan leader was sent to Moscow, there was a surge of people in Moscow. Everyone wanted to see this pagan warlock. Lev was very famous in Northeast Russia, and all kinds of rumors about him have always been in this land. spread.

Especially after he set off this riot, the spread of rumors became more and more terrifying.

On the day the body was brought in, according to Rostislav's orders, Jan ordered the old man's clothes to be stripped and his body shriveled from illness to be displayed to the public.

Rostislav knew that majesty was established by costumes and rituals, and groups like warlocks also needed some horror and mystery.

But once these things are removed, the public will find that they are no different from ordinary people in essence. They will have what ordinary people should have, and even some places are not as good.

When such a concept arises, then the authoritative deciphering is also successfully achieved.

Yang was very resistant to this. In his opinion, the enemy could be killed but not insulted. However, the prince of Moscow was very determined, so Yang was forced to do so.

After exhibiting the corpse in front of the citizens of Moscow, Rostislav did not even look at the corpse, but ordered Lev to be quartered by five horses, and then the various parts of the body were sent to various places in Northeast Russia for exhibition to show the fate of the rebels.

This is the case in the bloody era. If you want to deter the people who already regard death as a part of life, you can only have more horrible actions, and Rostislav has become a master of fear over the years.

Also taking the killing of Lev as an opportunity, the prince of Moscow announced that he had dealt a fatal blow to the rebels, and the counter-insurgency war had achieved a comprehensive victory.

Lev is a figure whose reputation spreads throughout Northeast Ross. His death is enough to be a sign that some people should stop, and now Moscow can act as if something did not happen.

And if they didn't stop, they would really be courting death. Rostislav's army was always ready to deal them more blows.

However, at the small internal meeting, Rostislav said that in the long run, chaos will still be the norm in Northeast Russia, so all regions must be prepared for the expedition and battle.

After browsing through a large number of documents compiled during this period, Rostislav came to a conclusion that the peak of the rebellion had passed, and that all parts of Northeast Ross would gradually approach calm.

The mobs everywhere are satisfied with the results they have achieved so far, and their minds are settling down next.

And the prince of Moscow returned with victory and the soldiers with their pockets full of spoils returned to their hometown. It is inevitable that the turmoil in the countryside will gradually calm down.

Now those who participated in the riots are more worried about possible revenge from Moscow, so many people left their original villages and went deeper into the forest.

However, it will be very difficult for the countryside to return to the peace before the rebellion. Although the Veles gang and the eye-gouging gang have no power to take advantage of, the rebellion has caused a wave of expansion in their size, which also means that the enemy Increased intractability, or more precisely, resilience.

Even if they were unable to threaten Zhucheng, the threat these guys posed to the wilds of Northeast Ross was enough to cause damage to many things. Rostislav set himself a small goal, striving to wipe out half of the gangs in Northeast Ross within three years.

In other words, the biggest result of this rebellion is to greatly increase Moscow's stability costs.

For a period of time after that, the merchants who had been eliminated by Rostislav had to bring a large group of mercenaries to dare to move on the road again.

But after all, it will not threaten the foundation of the Moscow regime, especially in the area under the direct control of the Moscow princes. If these gangsters enter rashly, they will be encircled and suppressed by the Moscow army immediately.

Therefore, since the overall situation has stabilized, it is time to reward the meritorious deeds, and at the same time compensate the victims in this chaos.

The first is the reward. Dill, Domhnall and Vaniger who saved Moscow are undoubtedly the first. Dill was awarded a prosperous manor, which governs more than 30 surrounding villages. Here It was originally established by a nobleman from Kyiv, but unfortunately, when the chaos broke out, the nobleman was killed, and his family was kidnapped and killed by the gouging gang.

However, the manor itself did not suffer much damage in the chaos, and some people were killed during the kidnapping raid by the Eye Gouging Gang. However, these bandits were forced to retreat after capturing the family of the noble lord, so the manor did not suffer much damage.

And most of the people here are dependent farmers brought by this noble family from Kyiv, and they don't mix with the local pagans at all, so they didn't participate in the rebellion, and they were completely clean.

Now Dill can completely accept everything left by the nobleman, and the family also has a leather factory in Kyiv that he has also taken over, which is also a rich industry.

After all, no one in this family survived, and in this way, Dill became a large landowner in Moscow.

Next is Domhnall. For this Gaelic, the prince rewarded him by letting him replace Gevalan as the new captain of the army.

After learning of his appointment, Domhnall was quite puzzled by the appointment. He looked at Gevalan who is now known as the "bloody hand" uncomfortably, but Gevalan didn't say anything. Just continue to stand beside the prince like an iron plate.

The replacement of the personal captain is a big deal. No matter how the prince promotes the personal team, the personal team is still the center of Ross's power. Now that Domhnall has become the personal captain, it means that he has truly entered the ranks of Moscow's top dignitaries. circles.

Not to mention the turmoil that this would bring, if Gevalan had any dissatisfaction, his connections in the bodyguards would embarrass Domhnall so much that he would be unable to carry out his daily work at all.

But what Domhnall didn't know at this time was that it was Guvalan's active request to step back.

After executing a large number of people who violated military orders and earned the nickname "Blood Hand", Gevalan has always been disturbed.

Although he is extremely loyal to the prince and is willing to do anything for the prince, he also knows how ruthless he is and how many people he has offended after becoming a "bloody hand".

Gevalan is not afraid of dying on the battlefield, what he is afraid of is dying in betrayal and backstabbing.

So he wants to step back, let his son-in-law take over, and appease some people through the change of personnel brought about by the replacement of the captain of the army, and this matter must be expressed as a concession made by the prince, which is conducive to the establishment of the prince. authority.

And more importantly, Domhnall's achievements in the Moscow incident are enough to succeed him, and he can safely let go to the next generation, otherwise he will definitely grit his teeth and hold on.

Gevalan knew better than anyone that the personal army needed young people to come up, so that in the long run it would be able to fight against the personal army full of young people.

It's just that no one has the ability to take over before, so he hasn't stepped back.

As for himself, Gevalan suggested to the prince that given the current law and order situation in Northeast Ross, the dungeon will definitely not be enough in the future. The prince needs a brand new, strong prison. The former captain of the personal army asked himself to take up this position.

Rostislav naturally agreed, and he still felt sorry for Gevalan, but since the captain of the personal army was so firm, he could only agree.

Because, as the personal captain said, he did all this for the authority of the prince.
