Gomm and Sigourney are trying to convince the dwarves and elves to participate in the next battle, and they have already succeeded in convincing the Snow Mountain Druids, which has become an extremely important bargaining chip in this meeting.

If it weren't for the Snow Mountain Druids, with just Gaum and Sigourney, there would be no way to get those white dragons and winter wolves to participate in this war, let alone the snow monsters hidden in the mountains.

The meeting lasted only half a day, and Gorm finally managed to convince the dwarves and the elven elders that they were willing to agree to join the battle.

After the dwarves and energy agreed to join the war, the atmosphere of the meeting softened, and they began to talk about the problems that would need to be faced in the next war.

--------------------------

Compared with the tense atmosphere in the United Kingdom, the Baltic Empire, which has already won a phased victory and is recuperating, is much more comfortable.

The troops on the front line will begin to recuperate in batches, and the soldiers who are no longer able to fight will leave the front line, they will receive enough trophies and pensions, and they will be placed in positions that they are capable of.

For example, those newly occupied cities, due to the chaos bred by the war, especially need to be dealt with by the police, and although these are no longer capable of high-intensity and difficult combat missions, they are still more than enough as police.

Although the Baltic Empire's armies had won a decisive victory on the battlefield and the Attila Empire's top brass had been wiped out, the remnants of the Attila Empire continued to cause trouble.

Those guerrillas who were originally hidden in the deep mountains and dense forests could not be eliminated in a short period of time, and some of them had already accepted the fact of the fall of the Attila Empire, and some of them were driven crazy by these realities.

These people were not only attacking the transport and supply teams of the Baltic Empire, they also included the original towns of the Attila Empire in the scope of the attack.

Creatures that were still active and communicative became their targets, and no matter how evil or cruel rituals and magic, they used them without hesitation.

The two towns were completely destroyed, all the corpses were cut off and piled up, and the corpses that lost their heads were thrown into the pits, and the spirits of the undead roamed their former homes at night with reluctance and anger.

Anyone who has studied at the Baltic Empire's Academy of Magic knows what these guys are doing, and they are artificially creating a pit of bones.

Apparently the situation in Upland had inspired them to take revenge on their enemies and transform habitable lands into the Underworld by creating these pits of bones.

It will take a lot of time and materials to repair the erosion of normal land by these underworlds, and the ghosts and skeletons that roam the town will need to be cleaned up by professional troops.

Normal mercenaries are reluctant to take on the task of cleaning up the undead, because such a task is cumbersome and has little to pay, and the undead have no way to provide any valuable loot.

Leaving these undead towns untouched is also not an option, as the pollution of these towns will become worse over time, and it will be even more troublesome to clean them up.

In response, the Baltic Empire sent mercenaries deep into the mountains to rescue the guerrillas, and let the regular army of the Baltic Empire deal with these undead towns.

It seems that these guerrillas have caused a lot of trouble to the Baltic Empire, but in fact, they have helped the Empire a lot, precisely because of the existence of these crazy guys, those panicked former residents of the Attila Empire have begun to accept the rule of the Empire with peace of mind, and they are willing to accept the protection of the Empire, follow the laws of the Empire, and obey the orders of the Empire.

In the face of harsh reality, it is difficult for even paranoid people to maintain their original persistence, and they are more inclined to work for the survival of the future than for the fallen Attila Empire, which has little to miss.

As for the hatred that arose in the war, it will slowly fade over time, it may be five years, it may be ten years, and these hatreds will be buried in the depths of memory.

Those who do not choose to forget, will be inexplicably targeted by the imperial officials in the coming days, and if this unstable factor cannot be alleviated, it can only be solved, and it is impossible to wait until they break out, and then think about a solution.

These are just the more prominent issues left over from the Attila Empire, there are other issues to deal with, and now the time has entered the winter.

Scandinavia's bitter winter is one of nature's toughest challenges, and it is not enough to overcome them with iron will.

This year's war has left every town and every family in a desperate situation, and they simply haven't been able to stock up on enough supplies to survive this winter.

The Baltic Empire could not just abandon these populations, they came here, defeated the Attila Empire, and conquered this land, not only for this land, but also for the people who lived in it.

Fortunately, the Baltic Empire was originally a country with strong industrialization capabilities, and the materials needed by these inhabitants to survive this cold winter were still within the scope of the Baltic Empire.

However, the Empire does not just give away these food and supplies without the slightest cost, and gratitude without a price usually does not last long, and over time, this gratitude may even turn into resentment.

In order to obtain enough supplies to survive this winter, these inhabitants must put in the labor, and they can join the Empire's organization to obtain these supplies by clearing the ruins, building houses, and building bridges and roads.

The war was devastating to the towns that originally belonged to the Attila Empire, especially the towns that resisted fiercely, which were basically razed to the ground by bombing or throwing stones.

Due to the United Kingdom's combat missions, the caster's team is resting, and the clay golems are also being repaired and upgraded.

In this case, the local labor force will be invaluable, they will use their own hands to build and repair their homes, and will use their labor to harvest the opportunity to survive and survive the cold winter.

For the Empire, it was only necessary to pay food and materials to rebuild the towns of the former Attila Empire, and by the time these towns were repaired, these laborers could be converted into ready-made, experienced workers.

Now that the development of Scandinavia is on the agenda, the city will be dominated by industry, and the factories that were originally built in Jutland and Lyce and Zealand will be relocated here in batches and a new round of expansion will be carried out.

Scandinavia, because it is closer to the northernmost part of the main plane, has extremely long and cold winters, and the time for growing crops per year is extremely short, and the development of animal husbandry is also inseparable from the growth of pasture.

The Attila Empire and the Scandinavian Empire could not develop on this land, not only because of their backward system of slave society, but also because of the barrenness of the land.

Forestry and mining are the best places to develop here, and there is no end to the forests here, and there are unknown mineral resources buried in those wastelands and high mountains.

The resources produced by these two industries are basically non-renewable, not to mention mineral resources, such as forestry resources, in an environment like Scandinavia, the time to grow new harvestable forest farms is still too long for the empire.

In addition, when these two resources are exploited, the surrounding natural environment will inevitably be damaged, which will not only make the climate and environment of the land worse, but also be attacked by various wild beasts.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult and difficult to develop anything in this land, otherwise the Scandinavians would not have occupied such a vast land, but nothing has been developed for so many years.

Now that the Baltic Empire has gained dominion over the land, it is likely that this rule will last for thousands of years, judging by the power and institutions displayed by the Baltic Empire now.

Such a long reign has made it impossible for the empire to fish all the water, and it is impossible to completely turn this land into a barren land, and they will only mine it in a limited amount and recycle this land.

With this in mind, the relocation of factories in Jutland, Lys, and Zealand will become a pillar industry in the region by reprocessing raw materials and assembling parts to generate wealth.

It is not only the region that needs industry to develop, but also those factories need labor and land to expand, and with the Baltic Empire having developed transportation routes that can reduce the cost of transporting raw materials as much as possible, land, labor and technology are actually the problems facing these factories to continue to develop.

After the dwarves and goblins joined the various research institutes and laboratories that research new technologies, all kinds of new technologies showed explosive development, and every day new technologies were invented, and new products were developed every day.

Even now in the Baltic Empire, the development of productive forces has not kept pace with technological innovation, and because of the fierce but non-conflicting competitive environment within the empire, these new technologies have quickly been put into production in all aspects.

In fact, there is no need to worry too much about the problem of rapid technological progress, because when the development of science and technology reaches a certain level and a certain height, it will fall into a bottleneck, and the progress will be slow or even stagnant.

It is the labor force that really needs to be worried, and the labor force in this case is not the same as the population, and with the development of various technologies, the equipment that needs to be operated in the factory has become more complicated.

And because this world has gods and magic, and all kinds of items have all kinds of magical properties and abilities, the original Alice conception of full automation through only undead or golems has proven to be unreliable, at least at this stage This method is not feasible.

Undead and golems, with limited intelligence, are only able to engage them in simple, tedious, repetitive tasks, such as plowing fields, such as logging, such as digging mines.

Like dismembering livestock or something, they don't dare to let these clumsy guys play, such as the petrified lizards that have already begun to be farmed on a large scale in Schleswig.

The skin of these lizards is a good material for making leather armor, and they are lightweight, tough, and can provide the wearer with enough defense against ordinary bows and arrows without affecting the wearer's dexterity.

However, lizard skin is not easy to obtain, peeling requires more complex skills, a little carelessness will cause damage, damaged lizard skin can not be sewn leather armor at all, which will lead to a ladder decline in price, which is something that no factory is willing to accept.

Such work could only be carried out by skilled workers, at least with the still rudimentary mechanization of the Baltic Empire.

And it is even more impossible for spellcasters to carry out such work, and with the abundance of materials and the popularization of education in the Baltic Empire, the status of spellcasters began to rise.

Only when the status of these spellcasters rises, will more people be willing to become spellcasters, willing to study those boring and dangerous knowledge.

Imperceptibly, spellcasters begin to move away from these worthless labors, and they need to focus on studying magic and improving their own strength, in addition to completing the tasks of the Empire, which they need to exchange for what they need.

In the final analysis, the world is still dominated by extraordinary forces, and no matter how unwilling you are to admit it, this is a reality that must be faced.

The factories in the Baltic Empire that were being relocated needed trained and experienced skilled workers.

After the completion of the restoration and construction of these towns, these laborers need to be trained before entering the factory, and the restoration and construction of the town is only to allow these laborers to begin to adapt to the laws of the empire and the environment of the empire, and only the workers who have adapted to this environment are the prerequisites for signing contracts with the factories that comply with the laws of the empire.

This is to ensure that the resources invested by the factory to these workers are not wasted, and to minimize the occurrence of poor competition between the various factories.

The laws of the Empire are not to be trampled on, and those who enforce the law do not seem to have any emotions, and reasonable demands in court can be satisfied, but vexatious demands will usher in a bad end.
