I, the prince in distress, send money

Chapter 107: I’ll slap you
In addition to preparing for the civil service examination and the military examination, Chris has a lot of other things to deal with.

The militiamen all received rewards, including Isaac and Connie's rewards, and of course Chris didn't miss out.

What people pursue is nothing more than power and money, and many times, these two things can actually be classified together.

Chris appointed Isaac as a colonel in the military department, commanding a regiment of infantry of the defense army, with an allowance of two hundred silver dollars.

At the same time, he also served as a senior official in the Ministry of Military Affairs - a conscription officer, responsible for the pensions and selection of soldiers, enjoying the treatment of a twelfth-level civil servant with a monthly salary of 300 silver dollars.

Although it was still uncertain where the soldiers of the defense regiment would come from, they did not even have a single clerk under their command.

However, after getting the two positions, Isaac was still very happy. Now he is running around and working hard to form the corps.

As for Connie, Chris gave her a position as a mid-level official in the Military Affairs Department - a logistics officer, enjoying the treatment of a level 16 civil servant, responsible for managing civilian laborers and transporting grain.

Unlike her father who was overjoyed, Connie was obviously not satisfied with the job, so she found Chris. After a discussion, Chris gave her another job.

Senior officials of the Military Affairs Department - intelligence officers, enjoy the treatment of level 16 civil servants.

As for what the intelligence officer would do specifically, Chris didn't know. Anyway, he let Connie do it freely, allocated funds to the position, and let her recruit people on her own to inquire about intelligence in the Restoration Army and the Republic's territories.

This is how a makeshift team works. Don't expect Chris to be rigorous now.

Now that Connie has given up the responsibility and is no longer doing logistics, Chris has no choice but to take it over himself. He uses the computing power of the smart housekeeper he obtained from the players to get a few clerks to help.

I have a headache.

Oh, by the way, now that the territory is bigger, don’t forget to open up more player spots.

Chris thought about it and felt even more headache.

Oh wait, what's the name of this game I'm playing?

Forget it, just forget it and change the name.

+Dear players:
Thank you all for your enthusiastic anticipation for the game! Since the beta test recruitment started, we have received far more registration enthusiasm than expected.

In response to the enthusiastic support of players and to further optimize the gaming experience, the development team has urgently decided to expand the number of participants in the closed beta test from the original 500 to 2000. At the same time, the game name has been changed to +Rise of Empires! +More details on the game update are as follows...+
Well, that’s about it, send it out.

The resurrection location is located in Bolas Fortress.

Oh, by the way, I forgot about the ownership of the fortress. Since the player took it alone, I should give him a reward.

Beyond that, there was the issue of prisoners.

Chris sighed when he thought of this, and his head felt even more painful.

Busy.

……

In the basement of Bolas Fortress, in a dark prison cell, something inappropriate for children is happening.

"Pah... tell me or not, pah... tell me or not, pah... tell me or not..."

"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, just ask me what you want me to say..."

The cool guy was excitedly whipping a man tied to a cross with a leather whip dipped in water. The man was beaten so hard that there was not a single piece of good flesh on his body and he was wailing in pain.

"Ah, you said I didn't ask?"

Cool guy turned his head and looked at another player next to him.

"Oh, didn't you ask?"

"Ah, I thought you asked?" "I didn't ask either."

"What should I do?"

"Forget it, no need to ask. Just keep beating him! I'll let you massacre the village, I'll let you kill the slaves, I'll let you dare to resist..."

After saying that, Cool Brother swung the wet leather whip and continued to beat the sturdy Minisian, making the latter beg for mercy.

Cool guy did it on purpose. He and his companions put on this little show to tease the Minisians, and their main purpose was to vent their anger.

Cool guy has not forgotten the village ruins he saw before, the bodies of the mother and son, and the stench that filled the village.

In addition, he rescued a thousand civilians before the war. After the war, Chris asked the player to search for those who fled into the woods, but only found four or five hundred people.

Where did the remaining five hundred people go?
Some fled to farther places, and more died.

Cool Brother did not forget the sins committed by the Neminisians in Bolas Fortress, so he found Xiaodao and volunteered to be the interrogator.

In the Battle of Fort Polas, more than 300 Minissian soldiers surrendered, including more than 30 officers.

Low-ranking officers and soldiers have been pulled out to clean up the battlefield and do some digging work. After a while, they will be sent to the sulfur mine in Beach Town to work as miners.

Although Chris would not kill them after committing such a heinous crime, he could not allow these prisoners to stay in the prisoner-of-war camp and live like the masters with good food and drink.

The middle and senior officers among the Minisians were imprisoned separately and not kept with the Ministian soldiers.

In addition to preventing these officers from leading soldiers to commit riots, these officers also have intelligence value... They are all Minissian nobles. By interrogating them, we can definitely get intelligence about the Republic.

As for the ransom these guys said they could pay, Chris gave the choice to the regiment that captured them. They could choose whether to take money or their lives.

So, there is this scene now.

Xiaodao and some other players had the following opinion: "Let's not worry about the ransom for now. Let's beat them up first and vent our anger.

What if I die? I'll just let it go."

In order to vent his anger, Cool Brother was not even interested in the ongoing exam activities. He also didn't care about the game updates, the opening of more player slots, and the upgraded team actively recruiting new members.

The cool guy just wants to vent his emotions and make himself feel good.

It is wrong to hit people at random, but it is okay to hit man-eating animals.

After whipping him dozens of times until his hands were soft, Cool Brother went aside to drink some water, while another companion came forward with medicine and bandages and applied them to the Ministian officer.

"This one has fainted. Do you want to change it?"

"Change it, hit this one."

The cool guy casually pointed to a Ministian colonel in a wooden cage nearby, who was wearing a white shirt that was now yellow and red.

Bernard Bowen's face changed drastically when he was called out.

"Wait, I'm a colonel in the Minissian regular army. I'm an officer, and I know a lot of useful things, whether it's intelligence about the Bagnian Republic or the Minissian Kingdom...

Don't do it, don't... don't drag me out!"

Bernard Bowen wailed, looking at the cool guy in despair as he opened the cage door with a grin on his face, grabbed his legs, and dragged him out after being hungry for three days.
