Chapter 80 Oliman's Power

What exactly does Oliman want to do?

Many people want to know about this question.

However, as a close friend of Oliman, he also knew what Oliman thought.

After all, this is also the change he brought about.

Oliman attaches great importance to Chen Heng.

This kind of emphasis is not only reflected in force, but also attaches great importance to Chen Heng's ability in other aspects.

Therefore, during these years, the two often discussed the matters involved all aspects, including the system of the Kutu Kingdom.

The system of the Kutu Kingdom was a typical feudal system, with King Kutu being the leader of the country. Then King Kutu divided his subordinates into feudal orders one by one, forming lords.

In fact, the Kutu Kingdom was not a complete country at all, but a military alliance led by King Kutu.

Except for the territory directly under the royal family, the other lords do not have to pay taxes to the royal family at all. They only have the obligation to send troops to help and respond to the call.

And even such obligations cannot be achieved at any time.

When the Kutu royal family was strong, many lords would naturally be strange and obedient and would not do anything more.

But once the Kutu royal family declines, these lords may not be so obedient. At that time, it would be nice not to cause trouble for you. Do you want to count on them to be loyal to you?

Many lords, although saving the cost of domination, also strengthening hidden dangers.

When the royal family is weak and unable to suppress many lords, many lords will also merge with each other, and in the end, a brand new behemoth may form, and even attack the royal family.

In fact, there have been many such examples in the past of the Kutu Kingdom.

The current Kutu royal family seems to have been established in this way.

As a time traveler, Chen Heng could naturally clearly see the huge hidden dangers hidden in this mode, and told Auliman that all the possibilities were all told to Auliman.

It is not surprising that Oliman will have the idea of ​​weakening the lord and depriving the other lords of their territory under his influence.

In fact, every generation of Kutu kings will do similar things after they come to power.

After all, expanding one's own power is the instinct of the superior.

However, even so, what Oliman did was still too much and his methods were too violent.

Just what the observer Oliman did, Chen Heng couldn't help frowning.

There is nothing wrong with trying to weaken the lords and deprive them of their territory.

However, the premise of doing this is to find the right reasons and excuses, and at the same time have absolute power to suppress.

If there is no reason and excuse, it will arouse strong disgust and fear among many lords, and even hostility towards Oliman.

However, if there is no absolute force suppression, it is easy to cause further changes.

Everything will turn back when extremes are bound to the extreme. In this era when lords control the territory, the power of those lords is very strong and should not be underestimated.

Once they are really forced into a hurry, the power they burst out will be unimaginable.

The right reasons and excuses are something that Oliman does not have.

Otherwise, it would not have developed to the point where Chen Heng frowned after seeing it.

As for absolute power.

Chen Heng couldn't help but fall into thinking.

The power that Oliman possesses mainly comes from three parts.

One is her original territory.

This was given to her by the previous generation King Kutu. He was managed by Oliman for many years. It is her basic foundation and is quite stable.

The second is the royal power obtained by inheriting the throne of Kutu.

This part of the power is also very powerful, and it belongs to the past accumulation of the Kutu royal family.

The last part is the power of followers and vassals like Chen Heng.

Most of this part of the power was composed of the nobles who followed Oliman and supported her ascending the throne.

But as time passed, this part of the power that followed Oliman was gradually disappearing.

This comes from many reasons, but the most important thing is that there is not enough reward.

The reason why these people followed Oliman and supported her to become King Kutu was naturally because they wanted to get enough rewards.

But after becoming king, Oliman did not meet their requests.

Except for a small number of people, although most of them were granted territory, they were sealed on a border close to the desert.

The same is true for Chen Heng.

Isn’t his fief Soda a barren land near the desert?

Although Chen Heng has gradually developed Soda through his own efforts during these five years, others do not have the conditions and abilities of him.

Most of them struggled in this area, and many even died in wars with alien races.

Those who survived may not be too grateful to Oliman.

The pioneering leadership proposed by Chen Heng was carried out very well by Oliman in this way.

Thinking of this situation, Chen Heng couldn't help but have a headache and rubbed his forehead.

He proposed to develop the territory to suggest that Oliman let the second sons of those landless nobles, or those who had no inheritance rights, go to the north to explore.

These people have nothing, and they are satisfied with being able to obtain a piece of territory.

Moreover, going to the Northland is their own choice. Even if they die, they will not hate Aoliman, and it has nothing to do with Aoliman.

But these followers are different.

These followers followed Oliman to fight, undoubtedly, had made contributions.

On the way Oliman won, they also paid a lot, so naturally they also asked for it.

And their desires and expectations were obviously not the barren land in the barren area of ​​the North, but a more prosperous territory.

But Oliman's approach undoubtedly made them fail.

During these five years, Oliman continued to eradicate opponents and confiscate the lord's territory, but the territory obtained was not distributed to those followers, but instead included it in his own pocket.

As for these followers who were loyal to her, they were sent to the north to re-expand the territory that had never been opened.

No matter who it is, I'm afraid it won't feel good when facing this situation.

So the last part of the power composed of followers has actually gradually disintegrated in recent years.

Moreover, if Oliman does not change what he does and continues to maintain the current trend, sooner or later, he will force these people away completely and make them part of their enemies.

As for Oliman's own territory and the power of the royal family, it is still stable, but if this continues, problems will arise sooner or later.

After all, Oliman's rule is rough in Chen Heng's opinion.
