Chapter 69 Ministry of Internal Affairs
"No, no! Lord! Everything I said is true! It's true!"
Shushu was still struggling, trying to save something, but since the lord didn't believe it, others would not believe his lies.
"Geralt, shut him up."
"yes!"
Geralt gave the slave rat a hard blow on the head with the hilt of his sword, causing him to stop shouting, leaving only a pair of vicious eyes that continued to look around.
"Don't even try to escape! You beast!"
Soon, the team chasing the slave rats from a distance also arrived in front of Iket. When the clan rats saw Iket, they immediately knelt down and said:
"Clan leader!"
"What's wrong? Why are you chasing this rat?"
Genil thought about it, but he never expected that Iket would directly transfer the team.
"Yes, but don't worry, the education camp really needs a backbone, so I won't move the best teams from each team, but will draw the second-tier batch from them.
Each brigade will form a small team, and then select four clan rats from each brigade headquarters and a storm rat from the battalion headquarters to form the prototype of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This is how it was decided."
"Don't worry, I'm not mainly trying to draw rats, I'm just drawing teams directly."
It is true that this commandment can effectively prevent the rat people from disordering and killing each other, but it is a little less effective in maintaining the political order of the territory.
"she?"
"Yesyes, but clan leader, what should we do with this slave rat?"
"Well, the pacesetter rats are our backbone at the grassroots level. The more rats like this, the better. I am planning to recruit the best among them and let you manage them in a unified way and be directly responsible to me."
In the middle of the night, after squeezing out the last bit of magic power from the cave monitor, Ictor threw it directly into the dungeon and locked it in the room next to the slave rat.
"Chief of the clan, this guy rummaged out of the camp under the pretext of going to the toilet. We didn't find him running away until we counted the rats. Chief Genil ordered our team to chase him!"
The clan rat reported the report truthfully, glancing at the cave monitor on the side, not daring to hide anything.
This behavior pattern even puzzles the cave monitor lizard.
Now it seems that there is indeed nothing serious in the territory.
Yaro responded excitedly, while Genil was a little disapproving. He was now the leader of the territorial army and did not feel that anyone could threaten his position.
"Let's go, you're here just in time, go to the front and clear the way for the team."
"Detention? Teacher, don't we behead him in public?"
"You know, this rat just said you were rebelling, and now he's going crazy here. What a stupid rat!"
"Yes, Lord. As of yesterday, all the teams in the territory have selected their own model rats. The list is only waiting for your signature. There are a total of 40 model rats in the camp. The model rats have not yet reached the selection date, so there are zero.
."
"There's no need to chop him to death now. Maybe not long after, she will beg me to behead her."
"This rat will be imprisoned in the castle dungeon for now. I will take care of him in my own way."
After dealing with the slave rat, Ictor finally led the team back to the camp smoothly.
"I am honored! Lord Lord!"
Ictor didn't want to worry about the quality of the slave rat's sleep, as long as he could be alive to receive the injection of medicine when the time came.
"Yaro, the role of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not been fully reflected, but now, the territory can no longer tolerate the chaotic order of the rat people, so I want to expand your team and take on more important work."
Ictor asked, not giving them a good look.
"Well, clan leader, our team has just been established, and the pacesetter rats haven't grown up yet. Relocating them now will make the clan rats busy."
The clan rat pointed at the slave rat, which made the rat who was cursing everyone just now calm down and began to beg for mercy.
The reason for this should be the old commandment of the Caring Clan - "If you frame others, you frame yourself."
As he spoke, Ictor looked at the clan rat's expression and tried to use a spiritual contract to make him bite the rat's tail.
Sasha thought about Ictor's wording and didn't understand why the teacher emphasized this.
"Drawing team?"
Sasha asked. According to the teacher's temper, this kind of rat is usually chopped to death directly on the spot. Even if it is not killed on the spot, it must be killed in front of the rat man.
Being able to allow slave rats to escape right under their noses, these clan rats are really getting better and better.
The other party complied without any resistance, which was good. The rat who had been instigated would resist the order that harmed him from the bottom of his heart. The loyalty of the clan rat in front of him was still guaranteed.
When the slave rat heard that the matter was revealed, he began angrily cursing the rat men in the team on the spot, and his hysterical appearance exposed the lie just now.
When Genil and Yaro saw this, they immediately came together. Ictor asked the two to punish the rat team that had the problem, reducing their food supply, and the matter came to an end.
His return should also dissuade some ratmen from their petty thoughts.
Ictor planned that in fact, not only the pacesetter rats, but also the older storm rats and clan rats would be needed to establish the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so that they could play a role in supervising internal affairs.
However, the appearance of this slave rat made Ictor realize that the rat people in the territory lacked the "subjective initiative" to be cruel to their fellow humans, which was not acceptable.
"First of all, we have to determine how many reliable rat men there are in the territory. Otherwise, there will not be enough manpower to start the construction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Yaro, you have a clearer idea of this aspect. Please report it to me."
But in fact, Iket is not in a hurry. The rat will be shown to the public, but it will be shown to the public in another way.
Early the next morning, Ictor called Genil and Yaro over again, intending to understand the current situation in the territory and make arrangements.
But since the teacher said so, she could only hide her doubts in her heart for the time being.
For this reason, Ictor plans to upgrade Yaro's internal affairs department.
But these words made Genil a little reluctant. Although he didn't know the specific role of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, asking people directly from him was a little hard to accept.
Ictor said without any doubt, then called Yaro and walked out the door.
"You and I are now going to look for rats in person. There is no need to worry about the ferocity of the same kind. Loyalty only requires those characters in important positions. Pay special attention to those who have strong desires and are easy to control.
Pay attention, if there are any that do not comply, you will be rejected decisively. Do not hesitate, and you must also strictly demand the rats that come in. I will formulate the rules of your Ministry of Internal Affairs separately later."
"As you command! I, Yaro, promise to satisfy you! Lord!"
Yaro said happily, after Genil became the head of the military, he finally reached the peak of his power.
Chapter completed!
