At this moment, Cove-Rambo felt that there was a stove sitting under his buttocks, and the temperature of this stove was slowly heating up, so he couldn't help but want to move away immediately.

In the large conference room on the second floor of the city's governing building, an ad hoc group meeting to respond to urban unrest is being held.

"We can recruit more laborers, the broken walls need to be repaired, the collapsed houses need to be repaired, and the land outside the city that has been damaged by the war needs to be cleared. ”

"It's September now, and autumn is about to begin, but we don't see a single cow or sheep on our grassland, and we don't have a single wheat on the farm. ”

"Send the workers of the city to the pastures?"

"Most of the workers have lived in the cities since they were young, and they don't know how to farm or graze at all... Urban problems are not something that can be solved by restarting farms and ranches, what we need is more raw materials to get the city's closed factories back up and running so that more jobs can be created. ”

"We don't have the money to do these things right now..."

"Then let the Kingdom of Kruria come out, the last thing they need now is krona. ”

"Do you think Paddy Reagan is a fool who would give us his money to buy hearts and minds?"

If we fail to solve the employment problem, the contradictions in the cities will become more and more serious, and it will be a very serious matter for more than 100,000 people to not have enough to eat. ”

"You can do anything when you're hungry. ”

"What can you do? Can you still eat your own flesh?"

"It's not okay to eat your own meat, but you can eat other people's meat!"

Cove-Rambo listened quietly to the officials' discussions, jotting down what was really useful in their discussions. Through these people's discussions, he realized more clearly that the city of Elok was completely finished, because the city had lost everything.

The Secretary General of the Cabinet, Buniel Carr, gently pushed the door open as the crowd talked, and walked straight to Cove-Rambo's side to put down a military bulletin and whispered, "The Alliance Vanguard has arrived at the outskirts of the 'Death Fortress' and engaged in an encounter with the Undead on its perimeter five hours ago. ”

Buniel-Karl clearly didn't want to disturb the discussion in the conference room, and his words were only heard by Covey Rambo.

The worried consul opened the military newspaper and began to read it in front of the officials.

There was not much content, no substantive news, but Cove-Rambo still cleared his throat very solemnly, and when many officials in the conference room stopped discussing and looked at him, he said with a victorious smile: "The Allied forces have reached the perimeter of the 'Death Fortress' and successfully repelled the enemy forces in its outer defensive line, and are now embarking on the siege of the city. ”

"Good news, but I'm more concerned about the situation in the Northern Silver Forest, and according to the Scouts, the undead legion assembled there is a small force. ”

"Didn't the allies think about what Illuk City would do if the undead legion of the Northern Silver Forest suddenly headed north?"

Kove-Rambo smiled lightly, "The Yekjel military port has gathered nearly 100,000 allied troops, and the undead legions dare to go north at this time, and the only thing waiting for them is destruction." ”

"But according to the exact news from the military port of Yekjar, the 100,000-strong army of the Kingdom of Kruria has only gathered more than 40,000 men now, and it is at least six days away from the city of Iruk. ”

Cove-Rambo shrugged, "Are you so unconfident in our city's defenses, and with such a powerful fortification as Elok City, can't you hold it for even six days?"

"My lord, I can't understand that when you say that, it means... The Allies have already considered this issue, and Sir Bowenright even intends to use our city to attract the undead to attack, in order to relieve him of the pressure of attacking the 'Death Fortress'?"

Cove-Rambo kept a formulaic smile, "I never interfered in the battle plans made by the Allied command, and I never asked... If you are interested in the Allied battle plan, you can go to the front and ask Sir Bowenright for yourself, and I am sure he will be happy to help you. ”

After saying this, Cove-Rambo stood up and walked towards the door of the conference room under the astonished gaze of everyone, and when the old wooden door was opened by Secretary General Buniel Carr, he turned to the people in the room and said: "The war on the front line is about to begin, and since so many people in the city have no jobs, gather them together to help us deliver supplies in the name of conscription labor." ”

"How much do you need to collect?"

"Fifty thousand!" Cove-Rambo reported a number, "In addition, our city needs more militia, find and gather two thousand militiamen, and hand them over to the city guard for training." ”

"Bang Bang"

Covey Rambo said this and left the conference room without looking back, and Buniel Carr followed and closed the door with his backhand.

The "Pedal Pedal" corridor has a strong echo because it lacks the necessary popularity.

"Find out who planned the riots in the city?" Corway-Rambo's question was inaudible under the strong echo of the hallway.

But Buniel-Karl heard it clearly, and he looked at the archon's office as he approached, and quickly pushed the door open from the side of the hallway.

Cove-Rambo turned his head to look at the Secretary-General's serious face and didn't ask any more questions, but subconsciously quickened his pace into the room, and quickly walked through the common office area of the Archon's office and entered his private office.

As soon as the soundproofing magic was activated, Buniel Carr said, "On the surface, it was the planning of Fipert Bob's people, but in reality it wasn't...", he subconsciously lowered his voice, "Actually, it was Derick Danny who was secretly planning everything!"

"Darik Danny?" Cove-Rambo looked stunned, glared at his secretary general for a long time, and muttered, "You mean that the military intelligence in Cruria is planning this event?"

"From our findings, this is just a personal act of Derick Danny. Buniel-Carr flipped through his investigative report, "However, it cannot be ruled out that the Military Intelligence Service of the Kingdom of Kruria is behind him." ”

Covey Rambo nodded and stretched out his hand, and Buniel Carr immediately handed over the investigation document in his hand and said, "Fipott Bob's reaction these days is a bit abnormal, he gives people the feeling of... It's as if waiting for us to go up and arrest him. ”

"Fipott Bob can't give up!" Cove Rambo said subconsciously: "This person will not be like a jumping insect in the grass, who only knows how to play dead when danger is approaching." He flipped through the papers in his hand and said as he read them: "The quieter Fipbert-Bob is at this time, the more dangerous it becomes, let our people keep an eye on him, and if he makes any dangerous moves, shoot him immediately!"

"Now that the Duchy has not been dissolved, and Fippert is still the speaker of the parliament, I am afraid that the whole city will be in turmoil by then if he is openly assassinated. Buniel-Carr reminded in a low voice.

"Now that the city is in chaos like this, what can it be like if it's messed up?" Cove-Rambo glanced up at his secretary general, and then continued to stare at the papers in his hand, "as long as we don't shake our roots, it's okay to mess around, and in Sir Bowenright's plan, we need a city of Elook that looks like outsiders can be breached at any time." ”

"You seem to be optimistic about Sir Bowenlet's plans?" asked Buniel-Carr.

"We just take what we need, he needs this war to secure his position within the kingdom, and I—" Cove-Rambo shook his head and changed the subject, "All the supplies for the previous clues are ready, right?"

"The caravan from Kruria arrived yesterday, as well as supplies from the Mage Tower, which are being checked in by the Coalition Logistics Office officers with our Finance Officer. Buniel-Danny reported the matter with more caution than he had just done, "But... According to our preliminary checks, the amount of supplies brought by the Krurians is still a little lower than the previous ones. ”

"How much less?" said Cove-Rambo frowned.

"A tenth, worth at least twenty thousand crowns!" said Buniel-Danny in a low voice, "and mostly pig iron and grain." ”

"It seems that the one in Crewe City is not as glamorous as it seems, and he has more headaches than we do. Cove-Rambo suddenly laughed, "It's still the same as before, secretly leaving the data we counted." ”

"Understood!"

"Also, don't let our people get involved in this. Cove-Rambo commanded seriously: "Pedy Reagan is not an easy person to get along with, and it is said that no less than a thousand nobles have been hanged by him. ”

"According to the nobles who fled to Elok Territory with Darek Danny, the white bones hanging from the old mulberry tree outside Crewe have long obscured half of the Crewe sky. "There's a rare joking look on Buniel-Carr's face," said Peddie Reagan when he traveled through the ground that oozed blood. ”

"Haha, then he is not more terrifying than the corpse of the undead legion. Cove-Rambo burst out laughing, but soon his smile stopped abruptly and looked at his secretary general very seriously, "I'm still saying the same thing, our people can't get involved in the internal struggle of the Kruria Kingdom, if anyone dares to stretch out their hand, you will cut off that outstretched hand for me!"

"Understood!"

...

Crewe City,

After the daily meeting of the King's office, Pedi pushed down today's briefing from Danman Green and Steward Herman, and he took a whole morning to meet with someone...

Baron Aemond, who is about to take up his post in the province of Harrons.

Baron Aemond and Pedy changed greatly when they first met him, and the original Baron Aemond was full of wealth, always preferring to wear a shiny silk noble gown, and the sesame oil on his hair and beard could print a human figure.

Now Baron Aemond, his bloated and rich state is gone, and the whole person looks more like a battle-hardened general, wearing a short-shirt uniform that is more convenient for doing things, the leather bag hanging from the belt around his waist is bulging, his long hair is shaved flat, his rather majestic beard has disappeared, and his original delicate and ruddy skin is now red and black after the explosion.

The meeting was open and the clerk and the staff officer in charge of the records, as well as the other clerks, did not hold back.

"Herien Leader is doing pretty well right now, isn't he?" Pedi's first question was bland but very formal, and the clerk next to him began to take note as soon as he asked.

Baron Aemond pondered for a few seconds before replying, "Everything is normal for now, the construction of the city has begun, and the people who fled during the war with the undead legions have basically returned to the territory. The current focus of the territory is on urban construction and the establishment of new trade routes. ”

The only thing that hasn't changed is that he is still so rigorous and serious when he speaks and handles things. And Pedi liked his rigor and seriousness that gave him a chance.

"I heard that many of the big merchants in the kingdom have donated a lot of money for the construction of New Herion City?" said Pedi himself poured the brewed tea for Baron Aemond.

Baron Aemond respectfully held up the teacup, took a sip regardless of whether the tea was hot or not, and said, "Yes, but these donations are gratuitous. He said seriously: "We keep a record of every kronor we donate when we use it." ”

"Don't be so nervous, Baron. Peddy reclined back on the main seat of the reception sofa, smiled peacefully, and said in a friend-like tone, "It's just a regular inquiry, and you can think of this as Sir Bipp's office." ”

In the face of these words, Baron Aemond could only listen quietly. Nor will he really relax, because when a ruler asks his courtiers to relax, he is often awaited with life-changing orders. Facing the next turning point in his life, Baron Aemond struggled to keep himself at peace.

"You've done a good job in Herian, whether it's the local aristocracy or the prime minister's government, they all have a high opinion of you..."Pedi stretched out his hand to Otwood standing next to him as he said this, and the other party immediately took out a stack of papers and handed it to Pedy's hand.

"It stands to reason that I shouldn't have transferred you away at this time, but I'm having a problem right now... I think you can help with this dilemma. Pedi put the paper on the coffee table and pushed it under Aemond's eyelid, "You won't refuse my request, will you?"

"Your Majesty, my family and I have sworn allegiance to you, and what you need me to do, all you need is an order. Baron Aemond immediately stood up and saluted solemnly, "I have the spear in your hand, you can wield and use it as you like." ”

"Hahaha," Pedy laughed and motioned for Baron Aemond to sit down, his laughter tinged with smugness.

"The tragic death of Sir Seke-Marat in the province of Harrence has put the Kingdom's ongoing government reform on hold, and I need you to take over Sir Marat's unfinished business. Pedy pointed to the stack of papers, "All the materials in the province of Harrence are recorded in it, you can take it back and look through it slowly." ”
