Beavis took a stand and set his sights on Penny Reagan.

Immediately, the generals present all reacted, and several coaches had already expressed their positions, and their opinions were full of unexpected unanimity.

Penny Reagan raised an eyebrow, unconcerned about the generals' gaze at her, and looked at Karene Sibo, Woz-Perrod, Beavis, and Fipert Bob with a casual expression that looked as if she was chatting with a friend.

The four of them faced her gaze, and they all bowed down one after another to show their humility.

"Then let's do it. Penny Reagan, with the open-mindedness of a superior on her face, looked around and said, "I don't know anything about war, so I still need to ask you for this war, and I will try to ensure the logistics needed for this war." ”

"I'll do my best. Karen-Sibo listened to her chest reassurance, then bowed her head and saluted, "Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief." ”

Penny Reagan smiled lightly, "I believe in you," she looked at all the generals in the tent, "I believe in you too, so please trust me too." ”

In fact, Penny Reagan was very unaccustomed to being with the generals, because she had a pitiful amount of military knowledge in her head, so she was rarely able to understand what the generals were trying to say, so when the general goal was determined, she excused herself and left.

However, she did not rest, nor did she return to the comfort of her villa in the town of Tyre. She went to the training ground, where she was training as a knight under the guidance of a knight instructor while listening to the head of the state office, Witt Müller, read the briefings that came from all over the country.

"The major chambers of commerce have expressed their support for our war effort, and many big businessmen have even donated their personal property. "But they want to develop the Normaburg area and open a ranch there." ”

"These people really pick places. Penny Reagan endured the pain in her shoulders and swung the wooden sword in her hand to attack the dummy in front of her at the instructor's request.

"Yes, it's a bit of strength. The knight instructor praised lightly.

Penny Reagan looked at the dummy she attacked, felt the vibration from her arm, shook her head a little dissatisfied, turned to look at Woz-Perrod and asked, "Do you want to promise those merchants?"

"By giving up this land to businessmen to develop their farms and pastures, the government will get a steady stream of tax revenue in less than two years. Woz-Perrod replied quickly, his voice sounding as soon as Penny Reagan's question ended, "But this land guards the southern passage of Suke City," he said, and looked at Witt-Mueller, "They must have made other requests, Chief Mueller?"

"Yes, they are also demanding that the government allow their Chamber of Commerce to legalize trade with orcs and allow them to sell magical items and weaponry. Witt-Müller's gaze swept over the briefing in his hand and said, "Sim Erke, the president of the Suker City Chamber of Commerce, even wants to set up a master tower to conduct a magic energy test. ”

"Smu-Erke?" The attack in Penny Reagan's hands couldn't help but stop, "The first commoner merchant to be canonized as a nobleman during the Imperial period?"

"Yes, that's him, he's not a civilian merchant now, he opened nearly half of the factories in Suke City, and he produces almost everything that the inhabitants need to live. Woz-Perrod briefly introduced: "I heard that his chamber of commerce has a capital injection from Crewe City behind it!"

Witt Müller frowned at Woz-Perold when he heard this, and said, "But he is just a businessman, and he and his chamber of commerce have not been involved in any political group activities since the collapse of the empire. ”

"But most of his chamber of commerce shareholders are Suke City..."

"And just shareholders!" Witt Müller immediately interrupted Woz-Perrod.

"You seem to care about this merchant?"

"Of course!" said Witt-Mueller bluntly, "because he can bring a steady stream of tax revenue to the government, and Suker City's economy needs to be supported by his chamber of commerce." ”

"Let's say something useful. Penny Reagan, who was resting at the suggestion of the instructor, looked at the two of them, and finally she turned her eyes to Witt Mueller and said, "What do you think I should do?"

Although Witt-Müller was young, he did not have the impetuosity of other young people, and after hearing the question from the Speaker, he replied calmly: "We can follow the example of the Kingdom of Cruria and levy huge taxes on the trade in goods such as weapons and equipment, magical items, etc., and at the same time purchase these goods from them at cost price." ”

"I asked the Ministry of Finance to do the calculations repeatedly, so that our logistical investment can be reduced by at least 30%. Witt-Mueller said, pulling out a stack of papers from his leather bag and stepping forward, "There are Treasury accounting records in there. ”

Penny Reagan has not been very good at arithmetic since she was a child, and she took the file and looked at the countless numerical reports on it, and her head couldn't help but hurt terribly, so she just glanced at it and handed it to Woz Perrod, asking: "If we need 100,000 kroner for logistics this month, how much can we save by using your method?"

"At least 30,000 crowns!" replied Witt-Müller without hesitation.

"How did you get so little money?" Penny Reagan raised an eyebrow, resisting the urge to say yes right away.

"The chambers of commerce have a top-down shipping system, and as long as we order the goods we want, they can even deliver them to the designated warehouse. Witt-Müller softly explains: "The savings are in the cost of personnel!"

This sentence immediately made Penny Reagan understand, and her eyes immediately fell on Woz Perrod, "After reading this document, what do you think?"

Woz-Perrod looked at the document in his hand, he looked at the analysis report as the prime minister of the empire, and there was an indescribable feeling, and in the face of Penny Reagan's inquiry, he was silent for five or six seconds before whispering, "The Kingdom of Crulia has 'played' the trade economy to such a point? ”

Penny Reagan frowned when she heard Woz Perold's words, but fortunately, Woz Perold's feelings didn't last long, he met the eyes of the two and said: "But this kind of 'game' can only be played by Pedy Reagan, because he has this strength, for Pedy Reagan, such a deal is equivalent to his left hand for his right hand, but for us..." What to do?"

Witt Müller immediately understood what Wolz Perrod was trying to say, his face changed slightly and then fell silent, while Penny Reagan seemed to understand and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Chief Müller's proposal is good, but he forgot one thing...", said Woz-Perrod, "We don't have complete control over those chambers of commerce, what are we going to do if they suddenly cut off our logistical supplies at a critical moment in the war ahead of us?

"What if... What about replacing those chamber leaders?" Penny Reagan continued to fiddle with her sword under the guidance of the instructor.

Woz-Perold said cautiously: "Orcs, goblins, and dwarves are still willing to trade with us, because of the funds of the Kingdom of Kruria..."

Penny Reagan immediately stopped fiddling with her offensive stance, and interrupted Woz-Perrod while swinging the instructor back, "You're trying to tell me that we're fighting to the death with the kingdom's army here, and we need support from the other side with equipment and weapons?"

"I can't say the same either, because the capital of the Kingdom of Kruria can't do anything without our local Chamber of Commerce in Suke City. Woz Perod met Penny Reagan's gaze and immediately bowed down to show his humility.

"The orcs have made it clear that they will support us in this war. Witt-Mueller looked at the Speaker General and frowned, and immediately said: "So, we don't have to worry about the logistics line being broken at all, all we need to use is the trade line established by the Chamber of Commerce in various places!"

"Is that so?" asked Penny Reagan earnestly.

"Theoretically correct, but..."

"I need a detailed report!" Penny Reagan looked at her office director, "I'll leave this matter to you, and Advisor Woz-Perrod will do his best to assist you." ”

"Yes!"

"You go down first. Penny Reagan waved her hand, then winked at the knight instructor and the others beside her.

After everyone retreated, Penny picked up the cloak on the weapon rack next to her and put it on her shoulders, looked up at the slightly hazy sky in early winter, and said, "Witt-Müller is young, but he knows exactly what he is doing, so I still believe in him for the time being." ”

"I will definitely cooperate with Director Muller. Woz-Perold didn't know why the woman in front of him had suddenly lost her patience, and he could only try to keep himself respectful.

Penny leaned her hands on the weapon rack to support her body, looked down at her mud-covered military boots, and asked, "My brother's nearly twenty army is about to march on Tyre, and the nobles in Suke City who originally supported him must be happy, right?"

"Speaker, the attitude of those people doesn't matter at all, your current position is indestructible!"

"But these people are like sand in a bowl of porridge, which makes people very uncomfortable. ”

"I will always support your decision. Woz-Perrod immediately took a stand.

"I do need your support. Penny immediately suddenly had an inexplicable smile on her face, "Maybe our new country will spend a long time in the war, so... I cannot tolerate that there are people within the country who are still thinking about our enemies at this time. ”

The smile on Penny's face grew, "I need you to help me find these people." ”

"That's my role. Although Woz-Perrod knew that he would act as the executioner of the woman in front of him after taking this order, he still did not hesitate.

"I'll have Todd Theo assist you, and I hope you can have a good time working together. ”

Woz-Perrod's eyelids couldn't stop beating wildly when he heard this, and he immediately hid it with a smile and said, "With the help of His Excellency Theo, this matter will be much easier. ”

"Hopefully. ”

Penny expertly removed the training bandage wrapped around her arm, "Do you think we can do anything from within the Kingdom of Kruria?"

Hearing this, Woz-Perrod's eyes narrowed, and the wrinkles on his face piled up together and smiled: "At this moment, the internal contradictions of the Krulian Kingdom have long been at a critical point, and we will have unexpected gains from watching from the sidelines. ”

...

Although the territory of Covinde is located in the tropics, the atmosphere in the territory plummets after November, and the autumn harvest is a month earlier than in the Jamich grasslands, and the winter wheat is planted in advance.

Sira Marne rode her horse down the winding official road outside Covinde, looking at the familiar scene on the official road, and at the passers-by who stopped to salute her on both sides of the road, and felt a very special feeling in her heart.

"Am I nostalgic for this home?"

She asked herself in her mind...

Although there was no answer, the emotion in my heart did not mean to indicate the answer.

No one doesn't care about their hometown, whether it's a businessman who travels north and south, or a soldier who sheds blood on the battlefield, isn't the motivation they fight for not only money and honor?

The towering city wall at the end of the continuous official road has long been in sight, the towering castle on the mountainside is so familiar, the shield printed on the hunting and flying battle flag is so memorable, and the shield embroidered with the surrounding mountain vine now seems to have another feeling.

"My lord, is the one who greets you at the gates?" said Teve Chatter, who was accompanying Sirah Marne, always kept a physical distance from Sirah Marne in a show of due respect.

Sira Marne's thoughts were pulled back to reality, and the familiar mountain wind was "wheezing", making her subconsciously tighten the cloak on her body, and her eyes condensed to the city gate because of Teve Chater's words.

"It's Baron Hill Osido, Prime Minister of the Court. Silah Marne's servant Hughny whispered.

"It's a bit rude to be slow like this, sir. Teve-Chat reminded softly.

Sira Marne nodded expressionlessly, and gently swung her horse towards the city gate at a brisk pace, and the knight squad and honor guard behind her immediately changed speed, holding high the royal flag and following her steps.

After a short time, Sira Marne's team came to the city gate, and Baron Ciel-Osido, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately took two steps forward, bowed down the moment the horse stopped, and said, "Covind welcomes the messenger from the royal capital..." You are also welcome home. ”

Baron Hill Osido's 'welcome home' shocked Sira Marne, and he subconsciously wanted to dismount and support Hill Osido, but her adjutant Hunie suddenly stepped forward and whispered, "My lord, you haven't introduced Sir Chart to Baron Osido. ”
