The head of the budget department of the Ministry of Finance can be said to be the fat difference of the whole of Prussia, and the Ministry of Finance is in charge of the state revenues and expenditures of the whole of Prussia, and this budget department, although it has nothing to do with revenue, has some considerable relationship with the expenditure of the Ministry of Finance.
Every expenditure of the Ministry of Finance is calculated and verified by the Budget Division, and finally the Budget Division makes a decision on this expenditure.
In Prussia, every economic expenditure of more than 200,000 gold marks required the consent of three people, one of whom was the head of the budget department of the Ministry of Finance, another was the chancellor of the exchequer, and the last, of course, the prime minister.
If it cannot be passed by the head of the budget department, even with the consent of the latter two, the money will not be available.
It is precisely because of this right that the chief of the budget department has always been the most high-incidence area, and the previous chief of the budget department was pulled down because he accepted a bribe of up to 100,000 silver marks.
In Locks's view, the addition of the head of the budget department and the other vacancies in the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was a major concession to Hans, who had certainly cultivated a lot of men in the Prussian government, but none of them occupied the core position.
After Locks finished speaking, Kurt and the others all looked at Hans with envy.
You must know that Locks has always had a very close grasp of the Ministry of Finance, and as the most powerful department in the Ministry of Finance, every chief of the budget department is appointed and dismissed by Locks himself.
This is such that even the Minister of Finance, Julian, could not resist the will of Locks.
Hans's brow gradually loosened after listening to Locks's words, and Locks's conditions were indeed very exciting.
But Hans also knew that at the moment the cake promised by Locks was very sweet, but once he Hans lost ground in the Prussian hierarchy.
Then it won't be long before these sweet cakes will eventually be taken away by others.
So Hans said to Locks: "Your Excellency, the main reason why I took such a big risk is that I hope that Your Excellency the Prime Minister can support Du Li.
We are all involved in this event, and we can say that our purpose is the same.
I only hope that if our actions are successful, for the selection of the Queen of Prussia.
I hope that it will only be limited to Du Li and Karina, and I hope that His Excellency the Prime Minister will not deliberately embarrass Du Li.
If this operation is not successful, then I only ask for the post of head of the budget department of the Ministry of Finance!
” Hear Hans say that.
Locks thought for a moment and agreed.
Hans's request was not excessive, after all, he took full responsibility this time, and even if the operation did not succeed, Hans would lose points in Wilhelm's mind.
The results can be big or small.
But there is no doubt that Wilhelm will not allow Hans to dominate the intelligence services at the moment.
After seeing Locks nodding in agreement, Kurt and the others looked at Hans with a trace of jealousy in their eyes.
Hans sat for a while and then left the small building, and after Hans left, Kurt, who had not spoken before, hurriedly asked Locks: "Your Excellency, how can you so easily hand over the budget to Hans?"
Hearing Coote's words, Locks' brow furrowed, and then he said with some displeasure: "Coot.
Are you questioning my decision?
” "Don't dare!"
Feeling the unkindness in Locks' eyes, Kurt hurriedly lowered his head and said.
And after Coote finished speaking, Locks looked at Coote, Julian, and Lucas, who were sitting under him, and said: "Hans is not a simple-minded person, if we can't offer a price that satisfies Hans, then Hans will definitely sell us all, and besides, what is the calculation of a mere chief of the budget department, if Hans loses points with His Majesty the King, then it means that the intelligence department is no longer monolithic, which can completely extend our influence to the intelligence department, which is completely more beneficial than disadvantageous for us!"
After listening to Locks's words, the expressions on the faces of the other three people present were much more relaxed, and at this time, Locks said: "The only hope at the moment is that Blanton can complete this operation, and if it fails, then everyone in your respective families who knows about this will shut them up!"
Locks's words made the three of Coote feel cold, they knew that what Locks said about shutting up was not so simple, what can be seen is that if Brandon's operation fails, then at least someone in Brandenburg will be buried for the failure of this operation. ...................................
Blanton led his six hundred men to attack Anna's convoy again, and Blanton was determined to die this time, knowing that if this operation was not successful, then he would really die.
There were nearly 800 guards for Anna in total, but although there were many guards, because these 800 people belonged to the three systems, there was a difference in command, and Blanton took advantage of this to attack the four hundred black-robed men marching on the other side of the carriage.
For these black-robed people, because their origin is unknown, neither the royal guards nor the three hundred cavalry have too much interaction with these black-robed people.
However, Blanton has the consciousness of death, including the six hundred people under his command are also determined to die, after all, they all know the seriousness of this matter, if it fails, then at least one or two thousand lives will be needed to calm the anger of the upper echelons, and they are naturally one of them.
Therefore, under the sudden attack of these dead soldiers, these black-robed people were a little invincible for a while, and it seemed that they could not hold out for long at all.
And just when the situation of the black-robed people was not good, under Anna's order, the three hundred cavalry were preparing to help these black-robed people, and from directly in front of Anna's group, there were neat horns and footsteps.
Hearing the sound of the regular army marching, Anna's face lit up with joy.
After all, in her opinion, it is impossible for the army to be co-opted by some people, in other words.
As long as she identifies herself, then the army is a presence that can be trusted.
But this army is not the army that does not understand the situation, this army is the army that Dessau put here in order to kill Anna, in other words, this army will not only not be Anna's help, but even Anna's mortal enemy.
And on Anna's side, almost no one would have doubted that the troops that came would be against them.
Except for a few black-robed leaders who were entangled with the dead men under Blanton's command.
When these black-robed men heard the sound of the army's horn, their faces changed in unison, as the leader of the secret protection of Anna this time.
They knew much more about nature than the others, including Louise had told them to be careful of Dessau.

The army that Dessau secretly dispatched this time had already been seen by them, and while they were horrified in their hearts, they were also full of vigilance about the next road.
And here it is already about to enter the interior of Prussia.
This means that the chances of Dessau and Locks and others may only be left for the last time.
Because as soon as you enter the Saxony region, there is still Louise's arrangement.
It is precisely because they are aware of this situation that they know very well that it is simply impossible to say that Dessau can let them leave safely, and as a military leader like Dessau, it is not necessarily impossible to send troops to intercept and kill openly at the last moment.
Sure enough, when several royal guard cavalry marched towards the army, ready for them to help deal with Blanton's gang.
I saw that this army suddenly attacked the cavalry of the royal guard.
A volley of gunfire rang out, and this row of gunfire not only killed the royal guards.
At the same time, it disturbed the entire battlefield, for Anna's side, this army showed its attitude, and for Blanton's side, a formed army was undoubtedly a strong reinforcement.
As Murton gave the order to attack, the 30th Infantry Regiment immediately set up a battle formation and attacked in the direction of Anna's carriage.
Although the sudden change caught Anna's side by surprise, the 400 soldiers guarding Anna's carriage quickly surrounded Anna's carriage, and then the 300 cavalry began to form a cone formation and prepared to attack the 30th Infantry Regiment.
The cavalry can undoubtedly rely on their speed against the infantry, and if these cavalry just blindly surround Anna's carriage, and wait until the 30th Infantry Regiment is pressed by the whole army, the cavalry that has lost its speed can only become lambs to the slaughter.
And just as the three hundred cavalry were preparing to attack the 30th Infantry Regiment, Anna stepped out of the carriage with the support of her attendants.
Seeing Anna leave the carriage, everyone looked at the queen with astonishment, they didn't know what Her Royal Highness was going to do, but then when Anna tore off her long skirt and climbed onto the top of the carriage, she saw Anna shouting to the guards beside her: "Loyal Prussian soldiers, I thank you for your protection of me all the way!
I know very well that the present situation is unfavorable for us, and that you and your enemies are both Prussians, and fratricide is not what I want to see, because you are the most loyal soldiers of Prussia!
Now, if you are afraid of the enemy, then give me to the enemy, for all they want is my life, and if my life can save everyone's lives, then I am willing to pay!
The Hohenzollerns have never been cowards, and I, despite being a woman, am also a member of the Hohenzollerns!
” Anna's shout caused the soldiers beside him to look at each other a little, and at this moment, an officer of the royal guard knelt down under the carriage and said to Anna: "Your Royal Highness, since you have praised us as loyal and brave soldiers of the kingdom, how can we do such a betrayal for glory, the army of the kingdom has never been afraid of death and threats, and the enemy is outnumbered, but as glorious royal guards, we have never been afraid of death!
Rest assured, Your Highness, that the enemy will not be able to threaten you with our corpses unless we are all killed, and if so, trust us in our determination to defend you!
It's like defending our king!
” After the officer shouted, the 400 soldiers gathered around Anna shouted, "May I die for Her Highness!"
Chanting.
This scene brought tears to Anna's eyes.
And the movement of four hundred people is so great.
At least the entire battlefield began to echo this oath of allegiance, and after hearing this, the phalanx of the 30th Infantry Regiment became a little agitated.
They don't know who the enemy is on the other side.
But now, when the low-level officers have also begun to equip themselves with binoculars one after another, everyone can see that there is a woman, an unyielding woman, standing on top of that carriage!
Then 300 morale-boosting cavalry did not hesitate to attack the 30th Infantry Regiment.
This situation made Murton grit his teeth and then waved his hand, and several formations in front of the 30th Infantry Regiment met the 300 cavalry, although there was no shortage of discussion in the 30th Infantry Regiment, but as their superiors, under the situation that Murton had already given the order, they could only attack the 300 cavalry who were also Prussian soldiers.
And just as Murton was preparing to mobilize the rest of his army to encircle the cavalry.
Adenauer came to Murton's side with an ugly face and said: "Your Excellency, there has been some commotion in the army, and some low-ranking officers feel that they have been deceived.
And the woman standing in the carriage was the Royal Highness to whom they were supposed to be allegiated!
” Hearing Adenauer say this, Muirton's face also changed suddenly.
You must know that it is impossible for everyone in the army to kill the queen of a country without hesitation, especially Dessau's orders and intentions are only known to the mid-level officers of the 30th Infantry Regiment such as Muirton, and most of the soldiers and low-level officers do not know the mission and task of their trip.
In this case.
If the news spreads among the army.
In particular, if most of the soldiers knew that their enemy was the Queen of Prussia, it was conceivable that these soldiers would not mutiny, but at the same time they should not be expected to do much against Anna.
Murdering the queen is a capital offense after all, and not everyone has the courage to do such a thing.
"Adenauer, I'll leave this matter to you, and you immediately go down with the Overseers, as soon as you find someone spreading the news.
Arrest me immediately, if anyone dares to resist or shout to disturb the morale of the army.
Then I give you the authority to execute on the spot!
” Adenauer's heart jumped at Muirton's words, and he saluted Murton and strode away.
In fact, Adenauer's heart was apprehensive about the mission of this trip, because he did not know the meaning of his mission on this trip, and it was a great crime of raiding his family and exterminating his family.
If it weren't for Murton's insistence, I'm afraid Adenauer would definitely stay away from this matter.
Adenauer and Murton were comrades-in-arms in life and death, and after Murton was favored by Dessau and promoted to the commander of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, it was also at Muirton's strong request that Adenauer serve as the chief of staff of the 30th Infantry Regiment.

For this reason, Adenauer knew that this matter would be a catastrophe, but after seeing Muirton's attitude, he would be desperate to help Murton, after all, he couldn't ignore Murton.
The situation of the whole battlefield gradually fell into a white heat, and the 300 cavalry did not stupidly attack the army formation of the 30th Infantry Regiment directly from the front, but kept interspersing the two flanks of the 30th Infantry Regiment, and then found the weak point and left with one blow.
This tactic made the 30th Infantry Regiment a little passive, but fortunately, the 30th Infantry Regiment was an old army after all, so their losses were still within the tolerable range, and at the same time, Murton was not blindly passively beaten, and he also took advantage of several opportunities to eat the lives of some cavalrymen.
On the other side of the battlefield, it was supposed to see that Blanton was about to succeed, but these black-robed men suddenly changed their previous strategy, and they rushed towards Blanton's location desperately, and such a change naturally made the situation on the entire battlefield change.
"Leave me alone, keep attacking that carriage!"
Blanton, who was riding on his horse, shouted, and quite a few black-robed people had begun to appear around him, and the eyes of these black-robed people were also focused on him.
Although Blanton did not play his own banner, but because these black-robed men had already fought Blanton once, these black-robed men knew that Blanton was the commander of these attacking enemies, and killing Blanton in their eyes had the effect of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.
As a result, the situation around Blanton suddenly became a little precarious, and more than a hundred black-robed men isolated Blanton and Blanton's guards from most of the dead soldiers, so that some of the dead soldiers who had lost their command became a little overwhelmed, and the other part wanted to turn back to rescue Blanton.
This situation made Blanton look very anxious, he was not anxious about his own safety, for Blanton time is life now, he must not let the opportunity slip away.
After Blanton finished roaring, except for more than two hundred dead soldiers who were still fighting with these black-robed men, the rest of the more than three hundred dead soldiers began to ride their horses and rush towards the carriage where Anna was.
At this time, Anna was completely different, her body had changed into a strong suit, and a saber was carried by Anna in her hand.
It seems that some people underestimate Anna, Her Royal Highness, you must know that when she was in Austria, Anna was a well-known child king, and the first element of being a child king was that the force value was high!
