The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

Any innovation would be hindered and obstructed by the nobles.

Constantine XI couldn't understand why the nobles were unwilling to let go of the land outside the capital that could be plundered by the Ottomans at any time.

Although they knew that the citizen militia with land were the backbone of the empire, they would rather hold on to the land and spend money to hire mercenaries than share some with their compatriots.

Even worse, Constantine XI was unable to turn against them.

These nobles are closely connected with each other. If he dares to use force against the nobles in the city, these nobles will collude with the nobles in Osman and open the city gates!

Constantine XI thought that the nobles in the capital were disgusting enough, but he didn't expect that these guys in Thessaloniki were even more excessive!

It's a good thing that I won't pursue your treason.

And yet you still want to continue to stay in high positions and abuse your power?

Even threatening me?

Constantine XI was extremely angry.

"I've offended you, so what?" He gritted his teeth and said, "At worst, I'll just quit being the emperor!"

The Norman emperor raised his hand, signaling his troops to prepare: "Normans, prepare—"

However, at this moment, the blood-red double-headed eagle flag suddenly floated over -

"Oh my gosh!"

Shu Yichao, who was galloping over on horseback, was puzzled. "Didn't we clean it up before? Why are there suddenly so many red spots here?"

"Whatever—just swipe it."

"Caesar!"

"It's the Khitan Caesar!"

The converts behind the fortress were in a panic.

They have the courage to roar at Emperor Norma.

But they absolutely didn't have the courage to show their displeasure to Shu Yichao—

The emperor had to at least consider the face of the nobles, but these Khitans didn't care about that!

If you dare to block the way, they will really chop you down!

When we were robbed before, those cavalrymen were really ruthless in their attacks.

"stop!"

"stop!"

One panicked and anxious voice after another was heard.

"Yu——" Shu Yichao stopped and looked curiously at a group of nobles who suddenly appeared on the street.

"Huh--" The nobles finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Shu Yichao lead his troops to stop.

Those who converted to Buddhism were either relatives or good friends of the nobles, and many of them were even their descendants. If Shu Yichao really chopped them all to pieces, they would cry themselves to death.

so far so good.

Although this Khitan Caesar was ferocious in battle, he seemed to be reasonable.

Thinking of this, the nobles began to show off their style again.

They moved to the middle of the road with bulging bellies, and in long tones and flowery speeches, they reiterated their demands to Constantine XI and Shu Yichao.

Although it is not decent to show up so directly now, since it has come to this, I will just make do with it.

[Oops, host!]

System 12345 is active again.

【A large group of nobles! 】

[It seems like they all came to find you...]

[It seems your previous performance was very effective.]

[Although the Second Empress isn't happy about this, you can still build good relationships with these nobles.]

[If you can convince these nobles to speak well of you in front of the Second Princess...]

There's still a chance!

"What are they talking about?"

Shu Yichao dismounted and asked curiously.

Mrs. Marti reluctantly translated for him - she had a lot of contact with Shu Yichao and his group, and because of her natural intelligence, she gradually learned a little Chinese.

In this idiot's communication, Shu Yichao naturally understood the nobles' words to have another meaning.

"What? You dare to ask me for protection money?"

Shu Yichao was stunned: "Their nine clans are doing wholesale business?"

Look up again.

Oh no—all of them are red names?

Without saying a word, Shu Yichao ran back and jumped on his horse under the puzzled gazes of the nobles.

Then, accompanied by the shaking of the earth and the flying of pebbles, Shu Yichao led the cavalry and rushed directly along the road!

Looking at the rolling torrent, it comes with the momentum that seems to be able to drown everything.

The nobles were all dumbfounded!

How can you be so unreasonable, Caesar?

We're asking for an exorbitant price, can't you just pay us back?!

Isn't this how negotiations between nobles have always been done throughout history?

Why do you flip the table when you disagree with something?

"Run!"

"The Khitans are coming!"

"Help!"

"Do not kill me!"

"I can give you gold, I can give you gold!"

"Your Majesty, save us!"

"Constantine, make Caesar stop!"

These nobles, who had just been so arrogant, were so frightened when they saw Shu Yichao charging towards them in the street without any regard. They burst into tears and fled in all directions, not even caring about losing their shoes.

But where can they escape?

The war horses came galloping, and the huge force knocked their fat bodies away. After they rolled to the ground, the hard horseshoes trampled over them.

For a moment, the streets were filled with wailing, screaming, and the sounds of dying struggles.

Damn it, although our military budget is currently sufficient, not a single cent is redundant.

This is the first time I've encountered an NPC ripping off a player like me. I've never seen such a thing in my life.

After stepping on it once, Shu Yichao discovered a problem.

"Hey hey - it seems like the noble heads get more money than the ordinary soldiers?"

So he came a second time.

No matter how the nobles struggled or begged for mercy, Shu Yichao remained unmoved.

A moment later, the nobles who showed up were cleaned up by Shu Yichao.

The streets of heaven are full of the bones of nobles.

Then Shu Yichao did not rest, holding his bow and arrow, picking up his spear, he continued to lead the team to charge towards the converts whose jaws were about to drop in surprise.

brush.

Both can be brushed.

Such brutality, such cruelty, such sensational massacre of nobles - it happened right before Constantine XI's eyes.

This made him tremble all over. Just by looking at Emperor Norma's back, he knew what his emotions were at the moment...

"Your Majesty," Mrs. Marty said softly, "Hold on."

“…” Constantine XI was still trembling.

"Your Majesty," Mrs. Marty continued to advise, "You must be patient at this time."

"...Woo woo." Constantine XI uttered a few words through his teeth.

"——hiss." Mrs. Marty hissed, "Your Majesty, stop laughing."

"So many people are watching."

"You are Augustus of the Norma Empire. It would be a bad influence if the news got out."

"If it really doesn't work, let's find a place to hide and laugh secretly."

【Host……】

【Why? 】

[Why is it that wherever you go, there is...]

[Logically speaking, with the gift of [Alluring Beauty], even if it's revenge for one's father's murder, one can let it go if one manages well——]

[Why do problems always arise when it comes to you, the host? ]

[Host, haven't you made good use of this talent? ]

Chapter 42-Mandarin is coming

"This Constantine, he's gone too far!"

Inside the luxurious mansion, there was a roar of gnashing teeth.

After Shu Yichao severely punished the first ones to stand out, Constantine XI was too lazy to continue to flatter the rest of the people.

The holy war at this time has basically come to an end.

Although there was basically no fighting along the way, it was still very tiring just to clean up the battlefield for Shu Yichao.

In addition, the initial enthusiasm had almost disappeared, and the holy war had also been victorious in the first battle, so the Crusaders were basically disbanded.

At the same time, the population of the Norma Empire suddenly increased from 100,000 to nearly 400,000, which was like a snake swallowing an elephant.

We must also stop and take a break to digest the territory we have conquered.

Therefore, Constantine XI immediately served this group of nobles a hard dish.

reform!

I said it!

The emperor planned to take advantage of the current military might to launch a series of reforms in the economic, political and military systems.

Among them, what these nobles could not tolerate the most was the reform of the land system.

Divide up our lush land and give it to those poor and miserable people?

孽 孽!

Even the pagan sultan didn’t dare to do anything!

How dare you?

"That's right!" The nobles gathered here all had distorted faces. Where was the extraordinary grace and elegance they had in the past?

"That purple-robed pig!"

"How can he still look like a Norma emperor?"

"A complete tyrant!"
