ch 110

General Ulusoy was standing in front of me and his colleagues with a smug grin on his as they glared at him for his success as no one had any confidence in his success I had only assigned him that task as I was expecting him to fail so I could take my frustration out on him as we have not had any success in months dealing with Jamal but I was pleasantly surprised that we have finally made head way into Jamal's information network.

What had occurred during the raids was each of the three branches were given given false information while my secret soldiers monitored each location and each branch even dropping off the raid team instead of leaving it to the regular people taking this plan and expanding it when each team wanted to confirm with another their call would be intercepted by a secret soldier acting as the other branch further isolating each group before we started our operation.

Honestly I expected a complete shit show but the operation started all three branches were shown the real target location needless to explain they were all pissed off about the deception which was anticipated of course we didn't restrict them in order to uncover all potential spies working against us we did not see any issues from the raid team or the covert division but the intelligence department wasn't as clean but we held off taking direct action but instead everyone's work station was instead heavily monitored, all calls were tapped and traced.

The worst came to pass as it turned out that about one third of the intelligence department was already compromised including the department head so before they could do more damage than they had I immediately had them and their families taken into custody while the raids occurred to be interrogated and if necessary tortured of course even after I get the information I will still have them tortured.

Me:"It is with great pleasure that I award you with the title of Çelebi (gentleman) of the court you shall receive in addition to your title a mansion within the capital of the sultanate and be exempt from taxes for the next three years" It is important to reward success as well as punish failure in order to properly motivate those that work for you

General Ulusoy:"It is an honor to serve and to serve well your majesty I don't deserve such generosity"

Me:"No it is important to reward loyalty with sincerity as you are a model for others to follow you must receive a reward it is why such rewards exist not just for yourself but to help inspire others to rise to the occasion as you have it would be selfish of me to provide you with only a thank you as it doesn't do any justice to your efforts working for the Sultanate"

I'm disgusted by the metaphorical bullshit flowing out of my mouth but it is necessary to display this level of pandering to those beneath me to help route out traitors which is why I was so overly generous.
