My Italian

Chapter 271: not sensible enough

"That's a real problem!"

Looking at the two plans presented to him, Carlo couldn't help but scratch his head.

Although Carlo is the king of Italy, the Savoy family is also the eldest family, and the annuity of many members is its essential income. This method of reducing annuity income is not realistic at all. It will inevitably lead to strong opposition. As the most important member of the family, it is also impossible for him to stand on the opposite side of the family members.

"Captain of the guards, go and invite Mr. Allejad."

At present, Carlo has come up with a solution, but he needs the help of the court wise man.

Without letting Carlodo wait, the palace chief Alegad appeared in front of Carlo.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

Looking at the increasingly old-fashioned palace director, Carlo couldn't help but ask with concern. "Mr. Allejad, how are you feeling recently?"

Facing Carlo's concern, the palace steward said. "It's not bad. Although there are constant minor problems, I feel that I can last a few years."

"This time I'm looking for Mr., I have something to ask..."

In Carlo's mouth, he told the old man the whole story and his thoughts.

After listening to Carlo's remarks, Director Allejad nodded and replied. "Your Majesty's idea is very good, and at present, the royal family's property can also provide this money, but since this money is lent to the government, then interest must be counted, even if it is calculated according to the bank loan interest, this must be there. "

That's right, Carlo intends to lend money to the government from the royal family. Although this is just a roundabout, at least nominally, the royal family's funds will not be reduced, and the family members will not object to this.

As for the supplementary suggestion made by Director General Alejad, Carlo also recognized that this was because he had not considered it thoroughly before. Although these benefits are not much, but one code is one code, some things need to be clearly distinguished so that there will be no trouble.

Now that it was decided, Carlo called the captain of the guard and informed the Prime Minister of his decision.

After resolving this matter that may have an impact on Italy's future, Carlo picked up a document he had seen before, which was a battle report from Libya. After a month of arduous fighting, led by the Libyan Governor Harward Georgie, the scavenger hunt under the command of General Brinin finally paid off.

After fighting with nearly 10,000 people in three cavalry brigades, they wiped out five large tribes, seven medium-sized tribes, and several small-sized tribes in one month. A total of 57,000 people were captured and captured, more than 5,000 guns of various types, tens of thousands of other weapons, more than 70,000 cattle and sheep, more than 8,000 horses, more than 900 camels, and more than 7 million lire of various properties were seized. .

In a sense, this operation is not bad, shrouding the majesty of Italy in this barren land.

Of course, the operation was not unscathed. The Italian army killed 619 people, injured 391 people, and lost 27 people. The death toll was higher than the wounded, which can fully explain the suffering of the army in this clearing operation.

And behind the battle report, Governor Georgie is still complaining that many officers and soldiers were killed because of the lack of doctors and medicines. Due to the shortage of doctors and medicines, some officers and soldiers suffered serious injuries from minor injuries, and then died.

Regarding the complaints of Governor Georgie, Carlo has no good solution now. The only thing he can do is to appeal to the doctor to join the army and serve the country. This is just to make the current doctors give up their comfortable life and generous remuneration to serve the country, which is a little difficult.

Italians have not experienced the baptism of Confucianism. Although nationalism is prevalent in Italy, like other countries, nationalism is more at the bottom of the people, those who have just settled their food and clothing and read a little book. It is really difficult for a middle-class doctor like a doctor to put down a decent life and eat sand in the army.

This is not just unique to Italy. In the whole of Europe and even Germany, where the military is the most powerful, military doctors are a long-standing problem.

Of course, Carlo is more concerned about another matter than the small issue of the military doctor.

That was this crackdown, and he was a little dissatisfied with the result. That's right, he wasn't very satisfied with the result this time. The reason is simple, because this is the first action, and those tribes are not prepared yet. Under such circumstances, the surprise attack only found more than 50,000 people, which is not an outstanding result.

And he has a hunch that although there are only 200,000 to 300,000 people in Libya, these local snakes will become particularly difficult to catch when they become vigilant. Familiar with the local environment and terrain of the local tribes, trying to catch them is like catching loach with bare hands. These local people who are not slippery will not give them such a good opportunity again.

Thinking of this, he will not have too high expectations for the next Libyan crackdown.

Moreover, there is no perennial river in Libya, which is not attractive enough for Italian farmers who mainly focus on planting agriculture. Wanting to complete the immigration task, this is a huge test for the Libyan governor.

Thinking of this, Carlo called a guard. "Send a message to the Prime Minister and ask him to tilt Libya to a certain extent in terms of funding and policy. In addition, send a message to Governor Harward Georgie and tell him that in addition to clearing the local tribes, he needs to get rid of the local tribes as soon as possible. Let the locals solve the food supply problem.”

Although the latter issue should be addressed by the Prime Minister, Carlo looked at the consumption situation in Libya and decided to talk about it himself.

Because he saw a list of materials transported by Libya in the past few months~www.NovelMTL.com~ It can be said that at present Libya needs to transport everything from the country, from small grains, horseshoes, nails, to steam engines, coal and various machine.

These materials are still quite a lot, and it will cost the government at least nearly 2 million lire every month. Libya spent more than 7 million liras during this period of the campaign. Not to mention, the local garrison will continue to fight, and the cost will be higher.

In the attitude of saving money for the government, Caro thought it was necessary for Governor Harward Georgie to save money.

Although the harvest this time is not bad, it can cover the local cost for several months, but the next transportation of these North Africans to East Africa will also cost a lot.

Thinking of these rising expenses, Carlo really regretted it. In order to avoid future troubles, Italy's financial expenditure has been made too high by itself, and it is almost out of breath.

This lesson must be remembered next time, I am still too impatient and not rational enough.

Just as Carlo was making an oath for himself, a guard suddenly reported that Foreign Secretary Jemini Bacona had something to see.
