Herald of Steel

Coming back to the meeting where Alexander was discussing the fate of the prisoners of war, once the fate of the mercenaries was decided, Alexander then moved on to decide the fate of the peasants- the forced levies.

And here also Alexander had his way.

It was concluded that the roundabout 10,000 captured would be forcefully displaced along with their families.

And this surprisingly produced very little objection from the nobles.

This was because, One- these men were peasants, so who cared?

And two because none of these were their men, i.e.- the subjects of the men in the room.

Perseus had recruited these men mostly from the southern part of the country and there was no noble from that part of the country representing themselves in this meeting.

They were busy being locked up in the mansion under house arrest.
