The Sun Never Sets In Spain

Political affairs have been finished, and the rest is military issues.

At present, the Catalan government has invested heavily in the military, including repairing railways, restructuring the military, and purchasing weapons and equipment.

The military factory is under preparation, but the funds are really short of funds. If you don't want to issue public bonds, you can only wait for a loan from the Bourbon royal family.

Seeing that everyone had finished the discussion, Garcia said with a smile: "The army has completed the mandatory retirement of ordinary soldiers over 32 years of age.

In addition, we have absorbed many workers who have been squeezed out from the society by female workers. Coupled with the recruitment of a group of tenants from the manor, it will soon be able to mobilize 20,000 people to start the first batch of training.

Retirement pay, recruit wages... These are all allocated to me by the Ministry of Finance, and a total of 160,000 pounds... still not enough.

Many recruits do not have military uniforms and are still wearing regular uniforms. Although they are only four-month short-term soldiers, they can't even wear uniforms.

In addition, all weapons and equipment are not enough. The number of the army has expanded from 36,000 to 46,000 (ten thousand retired, two thousand more than expected). We took out all the inventory, but two people used it. There are still many cases of a gun.

I would also like to invite some instructors from England, France and P.P. They are all aristocrats and their salaries are not low.

Therefore, I applied for another payment to solve the above problems. "

Everyone, especially Enrique, was silent.

The military expenditures so far have been accounted for by the government, which was picked out by Enrique from the corners.

If you give the army a sum of money, you have to borrow money. Enrique didn't want to do that, but he knew that Garcia made sense and that these expenses really couldn't be saved.

Seeing silence, Garcia asked for Alfonso's support: "Your Highness, the army is already carrying out large-scale literacy education. We have been insisting on instilling loyalty and patriotism to the soldiers and defending the Bourbon thoughts..."

Alfonso only felt a little funny for Garcia's favor. He still proposed the matter of making the army literate, but can it really have much effect? He didn't count on it.

If you want to develop a disciplined and organized army that resembles the PLA of later generations, you don't just need to teach a few words and let the teacher say a few words.

Must cooperate with long-term training, and the influence of military environment and social atmosphere.

If the cultural teachers hired by the army can make all the soldiers loyal to the royal family within a few lessons, Alfonso can only suspect that the teacher's surname is You.

His biggest purpose in making soldiers literate is to hope that they can understand the orders and learn some basic tactics.

Having said that, facing Garcia's help, Alfonso still spoke: "Enrique, let's allocate another sum of money to the army, it doesn't hurt that the government keeps proper debt."

He has always felt that Enrique is somewhat obsessive-compulsive, and he seems to particularly want to achieve debt-free government in Catalonia.

This is not a good thing, it is not the thought of a qualified finance minister, but seeing that Enrique has done well in other aspects, Alfonso is willing to remind him a few words.

Enrique looked at Alfonso's expression and understood that this was telling him, and reason told him to do so.

I was a little sad: "Well, the government will issue a batch of public bonds, with an estimated quota of 300,000 pounds, and all of this money will be used by the army."

Garcia smiled with satisfaction. With this 300,000, the army can change to the French Xiasaibo rifle.

The best rifle of this age! And it's easy to buy.

The production capacity of French rifles is very high, and the army has all been reloaded. At this time they are happy to sell some guns to their harmless little neighbors.

At this time, someone asked Garcia curiously: "You said that the source of the army is tenants and laid-off workers. How did you get the farmers out of the manor? Does the manor do not care?"

Garcia and Enrique glanced at each other and smiled triumphantly: "We promised that as long as 10 farmers from each farm give us training for 4 months, we can get a full year of rice tax deductions and discounts on leasing farm tools!"

Okay, that person was speechless. He was emptying his gloves for tax cuts and farm tool activities.

In the end, only Adolf did not report. In a sense, what he was about to say was what should really be discussed at the party meeting.

As soon as Adolf spoke, everyone was shocked: "I have retired from the army!"

"Why?" "Do you want to be in politics?" "..."

Everyone immediately talked about it. In their opinion, Adolf's political career is a matter of course, but it is best to spend some time in the army and finish the path Campos once traversed.

"Because Catalonia is still under the Spanish system, it is not easy for soldiers to join the party blatantly, so I decided to retire."

After Adolf finished his retirement, he said: "I will join the party and set up a private security company with an estimated size of 5,000 people!

This security company will recruit young aristocrats to join, and is mainly responsible for providing security protection for the major aristocrats, supervising military discipline, guarding the safety of the royal family, and preventing the infiltration of Carlos and the free government!

Funds are all provided by the Bourbon royal family, not government accounts! "

Some words are shocking!

In the dead silence, Alfonso smiled. This is the plan he and several senior executives came up with.

In the beginning, it was in response to the Carlos faction's police force. Many nobles worried that the handling of the Carlos faction would cause riots and the police went on strike again, threatening their own life safety, so they turned to the other side overtly and secretly, persuading the Catalan government to be patient.

This is the case with this female worker incident. Although most people have accepted female work, since the newspaper is in the hands of the Carlos faction, public opinion is very detrimental to the government.

"Iberia's most maiden government ever" shouted out, making Alfonso and others very annoyed.

It just can't handle Huo An of the Press and Publication Administration, and the nobles don't support it!

But the Carlos faction can't deal with it, and it's against itself everywhere, and recently there are signs of union between the Carlos faction and the local nobles.

As they infiltrated the army, it became more difficult to deal with as they infiltrated the army.

He thought of the shadow force. This shadow force must be able to maintain order in the city and suppress the police force in all respects without the help of regular troops.

The inspiration came from that special force in Germany.

He thought again that this was the case anyway, and that in the future, a one-party system would be adopted, and sooner or later soldiers would be able to join the party.

It expanded the scale of the plan to a total of 5,000 people!

In this era, the military, especially those with low levels of education such as Catalonia, fought civil wars, and were easily disintegrated or mutinous.

Under normal circumstances, the soldier saw a big headwind and drilled into the mountain. After a few days, he came out as a civilian again. After all, there was no ID card these days, and everyone looked the same. He was in a mess. Who knew he was a deserter.

How could Alfonso allow this to happen, so he added the attribute of supervising battle to this force.

In this regard, this security force is a combination of the shadow force and the palace guard.

He was not afraid to speak out in public to form a shadow force. The Carlos faction did not have a regular army, and it was too late to discuss in a short time. Forgive them, they did not dare to take the initiative to rebel.
