Chapter one hundred and twenty-seven: The Transformation of the Duchy

As the rainstorm poured in, a carriage drove into Lord Donald's residence in the rainstorm. There was a courtyard in the middle. The people who came out of the carriage hurried to the house with waterproof rain silk coats. The servants who came up with umbrellas couldn't help standing there.

As soon as he entered the hall, the person took off his hat and complained, "The weather is really terrible

Yes, General, just like the political weather in Brittany now! "Donald greeted the man with a smile, took the hat from his hand, handed it to the servant, and waved his hand, saying," General, please sit down

This is a square faced man with graying hair, but there are still few wrinkles on his face, except for a deep scar on his left cheek. His cold and stern face always looks a bit fierce.

He has a tall figure, but his back is a bit hunched. Despite this, when he looks towards people, he still has a downward momentum. He nodded and looked towards the long table, seeing the situation inside clearly. He couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly, and the center of his brow became a deep Sichuan character.

The room was very dark under the rainstorm. A row of candles were lit on the long table, which looked like dinner was coming, but the table was empty and there was absolutely no plate. On both sides of the table were people sitting quietly, their faces solemn, and they didn't stand up because of his arrival, looking heavy hearted one by one.

The general instinctively touched the scar on his cheek, sat down in the main seat, and his gaze swept over these faces. The person sitting on the left side, although wearing various clothes, has a straight waist and sits upright. The generals all recognize that those people are senior generals holding heavy troops in the Duchy of Brittany.

On the right-hand side. They are powerful figures in municipal, parliamentary, and other departments. And some nobles.

Donald circled back to his seat, scanned everyone around the table, and then sat down slowly, saying, "Alright. Let's get started now

General Xiu Te spoke first and said, 'I don't care about anything else. I just want to tell you that the economy of the Principality is in a mess now. Our soldiers have to support their families, eat, drink, and have fun. No matter how they live, they need more or less money, but they can't get anything now.'.

The soldiers have now refused to exercise, refuse to patrol, and some have even defected. If any country declares war on us now, I don't know if we can still lead a combat capable force. Our once brave and skilled army is about to collapse. The soldiers have ideas and are not just puppets. Soon... we will not be able to control the situation. I think. The situation of the border defense army and the city defense army is similar, perhaps the Grand Duke's personal guard will be better

A general immediately sneered and said, "General Xiu Te, I don't deny that the treatment of the Self Defense Army and the land is better, but now it has also dropped to the worst situation. The most important thing is that no one is giving us a chance to change everything now. The Light Holy Church and Apia are engaged in a war. The situation is further deteriorating, and the surrounding countries are eagerly waiting for a fatal blow to strike us.

He shook his head and couldn't continue. Military and political officials began to take turns speaking, recounting the various predicaments in front of him, the dangers of neighboring countries being restless, and the source of all problems pointing directly to the Grand Duke of Brittany.

The general listened quietly and finally impatiently tapped on the table, asking them, "Complaining and complaining are useless. I want to know, what are your opinions on the current situation
