Holy Roman Empire

The fact once again proved that the butcher knife may not be able to solve the problem, but it must be able to solve the man who made the problem.

Since the Vienna government opened a killing ring, the resistance to government investigations has suddenly declined.On the contrary, suddenly more people surrendered to the investigation team.

Even the security problems of the troubled members of the investigation team were resolved at once, and the assassin seemed to disappear overnight.

The shocking reversal made Franz stunned.After co-authoring this for more than half a year, the so-called toughness is hard.Seeing that the government refused to give in, they counseled one by one.

Think about it, although there are many people involved in the case, there are very few real power factions.

Needless to say, the emerging nobles were mostly made in the war, with their roots in the army, and a few capitalists transformed.

The time to start a family is short, there is no time to operate in the government, and it is now in the accumulation stage, and there are few people in key positions.

The premise of trading power and money is to have power first. If you do not have enough power in your hand, you will naturally be dragged into the water.

The old aristocrats can survive for a long time. Except for some stupid people, most of them know to pay attention to eating and know when to stop.

Even if it is to play interest transfer, people are also a one-time purchase and sale, do not do repeat business.

Immediately after the incident, the heads and tails were cleaned up and the relevant clues were destroyed. There was no evidence on the surface.

Occasionally, a power-and-money transaction can be said to be an accidental coincidence. It will really be suspected. In fact, it is still a long-term cooperation. Officials have broken the routine for someone or a company many times.

If there is no sign at all, even if the government wants to check, it doesn't know where to start.

Even capitalists who pay money do not necessarily know the true identity of the collaborators, and transactions are conducted through intermediaries.

This can be seen from the list of people involved in the case. Most of the officials who were arrested were from the middle class, grassroots, and some of the noble nobles. Emerging nobles and old nobles were a few.

When the biggest anti-corruption case was opened, the biggest power faction was already out of business, and the rest naturally could not turn the waves.

Dare to resist the investigation is nothing more than inaccurate in the vein of the government.Seeing the government holding up the butcher knives, they were dumbfounded one by one.

If you continue to carry on, you can only rebel.This kind of high-risk, low-reward work is obviously not suitable for these owners.

This can also be seen from the multiple assassinations that took place earlier.

The assassins can't even reach the amateur level. It's not so much a killer as it is a sophomore.

There are no modern assassination tools. Many people rushed up with a fruit knife. The threat of warning is obviously higher than the assassination itself.

After all, if the investigation team officials were killed, it would not be a matter of corruption and imprisonment, but a head loss.

It doesn't matter what your identity is, how hard the background is, and if you violate the rules of the game, you have to pay the blood price.

...

Franz asked in doubt: "Will so many people be executed?"

It ’s not that he is making a fuss. Executing thousands of people at a time in a peaceful age is horrifying enough.

In fact, the 1,000 people executed by the Vienna government before caused a sensation, claiming to be the largest execution in Europe in the past decade.

This is no joke. After the suppression of the Paris Revolution, the French government did not have so many criminals executed in the autumn accounting. Only a dozen years ago, the great cleansing was carried out by Alexander II.

Now more than 5,000 people have to be executed. If this is completed, it is estimated that this is the world record of the unprecedented and the uncommon.

Of course, this is the addition of prerequisites-"anti-corruption" and "trial by court".

Prime Minister Carl replied affirmatively: "Yes, Your Majesty! According to the Imperial Criminal Law, all 5,316 people above should be sentenced to death.

In addition, there are 4328 people who can be sentenced to death and sentenced to indefinitely."

Prime Minister Karl was also helpless, the evidence was found, and there was no need to specifically target it, so these guys could be sent to the guillotine.

It was a difficult problem before the Vienna government. All the killings had too much influence. The execution of 1,000 people in the front caused a sensation in the European world.

If more than 5,000 people are wiped out, or just enough to make up 10,000 people, then international public opinion will not be able to fry the pot, and the Party of Mouthfire is indispensable in any world.

It is also not possible to be merciful, as this involves the dignity of the law.The evidence is not dealt with before the eyes. After setting this precedent, who knows what impact it will have on the future?

There is a commutation, but the problem is that these guys are not up to it!Can't the emperor use privileges to commute these people?

Rubbing his forehead, Franz could only sigh that there were so many Austrians, and easily caught so many criminals.

Franz asked, "Is these people identities?"

Prime Minister Carl: "Among these batches of recidivists, more than 5,000 have triad backgrounds, mostly gang leaders, thugs, and murders.

Mainly engaged in criminal activities such as collecting protection fees, underground casinos, loan sharks, drug trafficking, and counterfeit banknotes.

In addition, there are more than 3,000 people who are raised by capitalists. Nearly half of these people also have triad backgrounds, and they are engaged in similar businesses, except that there is one more crackdown on workers ’strikes, and fewer protection fees and counterfeit drugs.

The number of capitalists and officials who need to be sentenced to death is actually not too large, and the total number is less than a thousand. Among them, there are slightly more capitalists, and there are actually less than 100 officials involved in serious cases."

This result did not surprise Franz.

As long as the criminals have murders on hand, they can't run away.Not even an accident, after all, other crimes have to accumulate.

The Austrian government has always punished these people severely.Anyway, it is a scum of society, and there is no need to worry about manslaughter.

In contrast, the capitalists and officials involved in the case, even if there are problems, are mostly economic problems, or black, and few people directly bear the murder case.

There are so many capitalists and officials who want to lose their heads, mostly because they are too deeply involved with the underworld, and they are jointly and severally responsible for the law, and they are brought together together.

As for whether someone will lose their heads because of the huge amount of corruption, Franz can answer with affirmation: No!

The Anti-Corruption Bureau and the police do not eat idle meals. There are too many industries that they cannot cover.

The huge amount of unidentified property is itself a firefly in the night, and it is difficult to be targeted.

Everyone knows that Austrian officials do not do anything when they receive money. Even if it is legal, ordinary people are afraid to pay bribes.

Even if someone sends it to you, you must first consider whether you have encountered phishing law enforcement. This kind of thing is often done by the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Corruption and bribery can only squeeze wool from a few reliable people, and how much oil can be squeezed out?

After careful calculations, Franz found that these people seemed to keep these people, and they had no value other than to trouble themselves.

As for international public opinion, just talk about it if you love it. Anyway, the mouth grows on others, and it can't be stopped at all.

No matter how many criminals are executed, no one will really come over and point fingers. Those who dare to interfere in Austria ’s internal affairs this year do not yet exist.

"Judicial justice cannot be blasphemy. This time we will use these people to show the outside world our determination to maintain judicial justice.

Put together an integer, it will be more deterrent.This happened to be the benchmark of Austrian law."

After listening to the word "benchmark", Prime Minister Carl swallowed back what he had originally prepared. Judicial justice also requires blood to build.

This is contrary to the law not blaming the public.Today, if the people involved are merciful, the legal deterrent will be greatly reduced, and more similar incidents will happen in the future.

Rather than burying hidden dangers for the future, it is better to cut the mess now.Anyway, it ’s useless for these people to stay, and there is no shortage of labor in Austria now.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Carl replied cautiously
