With countless trophies taken from Constantinople. Egil returned to Krakow. Although in the end, he did not get the treasures in Constantine's great palace and the palace itself that he wanted most. The Hagia Sophia was also destroyed. But the wealth he gained still exceeded his imagination. Through systematic estimation, Egil learned that the "half" he received was worth 170 million Norman gold, equivalent to the empire's two years of total fiscal revenue.
Such wealth figures made the emperor's eyes freeze. Not to mention the large number of points obtained during the expedition - more than half of the hundreds of thousands of Constantinople residents were killed by the emperor. Even though it is not as grand as the massacre with the Mongols in the suburbs of Moscow, it is still quite impressive. But the income from this robbery was substantial, more than what was gained from looting Temujin's gold tent. .
This expedition can be said to have brought both fame and fortune. Many soldiers suddenly became rich men. Even when they sell off their loot, they will be slaughtered by those unscrupulous businessmen. But for these big bosses who are soldiers, is there any difference between ten million and one million? No. Absolutely not. Many soldiers robbed this ticket, which amounted to more money than they had robbed in half their previous lives. This made them sigh - what a wealthy Italian city-state. What a holy land, Jerusalem, flowing with milk and honey. Compared with Constantinople, Pidgeot is nothing.
It¡¯s a pity that the retirement age set by the empire is fifty. Even if he is a veteran who has been fighting side by side with Egil for nearly fifteen years from Byard to now. It is impossible to retire without illness or disaster. A group of soldiers who made a fortune. Even though my heart feels as uncomfortable as a cat scratching me. I want to use my money to buy property in Eastern Europe as soon as possible and become a rich man. Or you can use this money as capital and invest it in a certain business bank or factory, waiting for dividends. A little bolder. Be more open-minded. They are targeting the Kazan area that is being developed, or they may want to engage in ocean trade. Go to the Far East to pan for gold, and some want to go to Central America
However, he is not old enough to retire, and he is not sick or disabled. Then these things can only be thought about.
After hearing about such a thing. The Norman Emperor was very considerate and introduced the "early retirement" method. It is stipulated that soldiers only need to pay a certain amount of money (this number is usually five to ten times the purchase price of the unit). You can retire early. Once the news is released. Many have already accumulated enough coffin books. Veterans who had broken their legs and had enough to feed them for a lifetime immediately became the first beneficiaries. While crying and shouting: "I can't bear to leave you, Your Majesty the Emperor." I paid the money happily. Then he took the money gained from the robbery over the years and went away freely.
"These veterans have fought in the north and south, and they have a lot of experience. I spent a long time in a place with the highest degree of Normanization, such as the army. Organizational skills are quite high. And it¡¯s very clingy. He also has a wide network of contacts. Regarding the current situation of the Norman Empire, I also have some understanding in my heart. After many low-level officers retired from the army, they immediately recruited their old troops to form business groups, pioneering teams, expedition teams and other organizations. Head to Eastern Europe to colonize various wastelands that have yet to be developed. Or start a business.
Under such stimulation. The empire's financial revenue this quarter suddenly increased a lot. The short-distance development in Eastern Europe was also much faster, and commerce and trade became more prosperous. And this emerging veteran class has a very strong sense of belonging and identification with the Norman Empire. By allowing this class to gain a foothold, the empire's rule will become more stable.
In this way, the emperor made a big deal. Made a lot of money again. This money was invested in the three newly conquered provinces. Redeem shrewd and loyal officials from the system. As well as carrying out infrastructure construction, building roads, revitalizing cities, reclaiming fields and docks. In addition to developing industry and commerce, it is also used to expand the army.
There are three legions in total. Fifteen thousand hussars. Twenty-five regiments, 25,000 new army troops, and 10,000 Norman infantry joined the Imperial Army. Emperor Egil immediately expanded his army to 50,000 men. Then he replenished the damaged troops under his command in the Eastern Roman expedition. In this way, the emperor had another hundred thousand well-equipped and well-trained regular troops in his hands.
In the Royal Council of Krakow, in the office of Aurora, the Councilor and Princess of Normandy. His Highness, who didn't seem to have aged at all, said this while lying on the back of the chair behind her. Egil, who hugged her neck and smiled without saying a word, said: "You are a good calculator. You have done favors and made money. You have attracted a large number of supporters to yourself. You can also recruit more money than before. Several times the size of the army. Tsk tsk tsk This is just a calculation. If you are serious about this, then I, as a part-time commercial counselor, will have no choice but to do it."
"How could it be? I am just a little bit of a genius. I will come up with a brilliant idea or something when I have an idea. But those trivial messes, ordinary business affairsYes. I'm not good at it at all. You still have to do it. "As Egil said this, he gradually lowered his hands, reached in from the collar, touched Aurora's big breasts and squeezed them, then kneaded them like dough, and kept playing with the two top breasts. Pink buds. The teased nipples couldn't bear the stimulation and became hard.
Looking through the white dress of Aurora's coat, one can faintly see the two dots of pink. This is because just now, Egil followed the precise technique and unhooked Aurora's bra in an instant. .
"Idiot - what are you doing?" Aurora was dumbfounded when she heard Egil's overt and covert praise. She didn't know whether it was a compliment or an excuse to ridicule. Then I felt like my chest was being attacked. It's just that although the eldest princess said this, her reaction was only moderate, and she patted Egil's mischievous hand as if it was tickling. It's not so much resistance as it is **.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to reminisce Well, it seems to have grown a little bigger. What do you usually eat?" Egil explained, while gently biting Ou with his lips. Ruola's earlobe, sucking.
"Just the usual things." Because of Egil's skillful techniques. Aurora felt her body getting very hot. I longed to be held, and my voice became trembling.
"I don't believe it. You must have eaten something specially processed." He said this while adding a little more force: "It's the kind of hormone that accelerates growth. Otherwise, why would it become so big?"
"I told you there is no such thing!" Although he is usually very strong. But at this moment, Aurora was bullied by Egil and was about to cry.
"Then let me check it carefully." Egil said, while slightly increasing his strength.
"It hurts, don't use so much force." Aurora said to Egil in a tone that was half coquettish and half reproachful. At the same time, he also grabbed Egil's collar with his backhand, trying to push him away. Instead, Egil kissed her on the lips. The two people kissed each other like this.
"Because I think if I use force, I might be able to squeeze out milk." After a while, after the kiss, Egil continued to talk about this topic.
"How is it possible I haven't given birth to a child yet. It's impossible to express milk." Aurora, who was weak after being kissed by Egil, said in resistance.
"Then what are you waiting for? Give me a child -" Egil said as he retracted his hand, and then held Aurora in his arms. Regardless of Aurora's exclamation, she walked straight to the lounge next to the office with a soft and comfortable big bed
That¡¯s pretty much it. What happened in the lounge was "beep¡ª¡ª", "beep¡ª¡ª" and "beep¡ª¡ª". To put it simply, "The following is abbreviated -". in this way.
?????? About two hours later. Egil lay naked on the bed. And Aurora nestled in Egil's arms like a kitten. Because of the loss of a lot of physical strength. So neither of them wanted to move for the time being. As for work, I forgot about it. But it doesn't seem like much fun to just sit around and do nothing. So Egil told Aurora about the current situation. Bragging desperately about his great achievements in the past two years.
"France, Germany, and Italy are just a bunch of clowns. I will beat them to ashes in minutes. The Eastern Roman Empire looks very powerful, but in fact it is just a strong external force. Not to mention Serbia and Hungary. I only want A little finger could crush them.
Now, General Farr has sent a message, and the strategy for Spain is almost completed. Most of Spain had been conquered. Leon-Castile, Aragon and Portugal were all conquered. The southern Moorish territory also occupied part of it. In this way, when Arslan, who was about to conquer Egypt, heard about it, his military morale would definitely be shaken and he would have to retreat.
When the time comes, I will dispatch the Western Mediterranean Fleet to carry a group of troops to intercept them midway in North Africa. Even if they cannot win completely, they can still occupy the entire Algiers area in North Africa. Connected with Egypt. After that, Spain and Morocco will also be mine!
At the same time, I will mobilize the army and go to the Kazan area. This time I must completely wipe out the Mongols. Occupy everything west of the Ural Mountains! Then several armies were dispatched to occupy Asia Minor, the Near East, and Arabia! The entire Western world will be mine by then! Build a great empire that is stronger than Alexander's empire and stronger than the Roman Empire! This kind of mission has been completed, hahahahaha"
"¡ª¡ªI am pregnant."
"ah?!"
