Chapter 490: Analysis

Kaiyan City is close to the sea, and the strong throughput of Lannister Port is also a major reason for the earliest development of Lannister, since ancient times, the port city will develop rapidly, so if you can take this place, it will be a very big change for the overall battle situation.

As for King's Landing, to be honest, the city itself has no advantages, there is no superior environment around, there is no special products or anything like that, it is only because it is in the center of the continent, so it is the royal capital.

King's Landing is more of a political center than a military position, and only by mastering it can you claim the title of king, but Li Lingyi is not in a hurry to attack it.

This is different from other families, the Starks, the Tullys, and undoubtedly thought that they should go south directly, occupy King's Landing, and then command the Quartet, but they did not succeed in going south at all.

The Rebellion of the Five Kings was only Stannis who hit King's Landing, and he was about to succeed, but he was flanked back and forth by Old Tywin's rifle and left the field in defeat. Therefore, it is estimated that he will agree more with Li Lingyi's judgment and will not easily fight King's Landing's idea again.

As time passed, the small families in the Riverland pledged their allegiance to the Flagless Family, and a few of the unwilling ones ran to the south with their property, fearing that the Flagless Family would force them.

For those who escaped, Li Lingyi naturally would not stop them, in fact, the south is not as beautiful as these old men imagined.

According to the spy's report, the tax revenue in the south has now increased by nearly 30%, because since the central part was actually controlled by Li Lingyi, the tax burden on the Iron Throne has been abolished in the Hejian Land.

And the northern realm is not to mention, and not a single silver deer will be taken out at all. In this way, King's Landing is equivalent to reducing two-thirds of the country's taxes in an instant, which makes some greedy and arrogant nobles suddenly unable to sit still, you must know that most of this tax revenue ends up in their pockets.

As a result, the civilians in the south are miserable, because of the war, they have not had much money, although they are better off than the northerners, but they can only maintain food and clothing.

But now that the tax rate has risen, their food and clothing line will no longer be maintained, and many civilians will have to reduce their two meals a day to one, living a hungry life.

And at this time, the people sent by Li Lingyi also began to play a role, and the people at the bottom exaggerated the living standards of the residents of Hejian Land in various ways, and they could eat three meals a day, as well as meat, in short, all kinds of good.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, as long as you maintain diligent work, three meals a day is absolutely fine, and this is also a rule that Li Ling must order. He will never allow his subordinates to be corrupt, and they will deal with one by one if they are discovered.

It doesn't matter who the other party is, how big the official is. Like before, there was an old member of the original Flagless Brotherhood who was just greedy for more than forty golden dragons, and was directly abolished by Li Lingyi from the official position of captain, and then locked up in a dungeon for three months, and he has not been released yet.

For this matter, he also specially held a national assembly, expressing his deep hatred for corruption and his attitude of never tolerating it. So under his absolute authority, no one dared to commit any more crimes.

In this way, the amount of money allocated to each civilian will increase, and life will naturally be better.

As for the south, to be honest, Li Lingyi felt that the biggest shortcoming of King's Landing was that there were too many nobles.

There are thousands of nobles in a city, although not every nobleman exploits the commoners, and even some of them live very miserably. (For example, Sam, who was driven by his father to guard the Great Wall.) But in the end, the exploiters are in the majority.

In this way, it is conceivable how the commoners lived, and if these nobles could be reduced by half, then the lives of the commoners would be greatly improved.

Of course, less does not mean that you want to eliminate, this is impossible in this era, you want to eliminate the nobility, but don't forget that you are too, and they will also rebel against you.

It's hard to eliminate, but at least don't make them so greedy, which is hard to do. According to Li Lingyi's opinion, these nobles are spoiled, if you are not happy, then they will work together to get you down and support a new one.

So it takes a figure like Aegon the Conqueror, to destroy all the old order with iron and blood, and to build a new, better one.

Sadly, although Aegon conquered the continent, he was also assimilated into the system and became the greatest nobleman, the king.

Just like many knights who slay dragons, they eventually become evil dragons themselves. The lure of rights is unmatched, which is why Game of Thrones is so dangerous, but players still enjoy it.

Of course, not everyone is the same, and Daenerys, the Mother of Dragons, has always wanted to be a "Wheel Breaker", although her title is long enough......

However, she did take action, and was delayed by the strange ghost in the play, otherwise the decisive battle with the Lannister would have begun.

But now Li Lingyi doesn't think about the Dragon Mother's affairs, and he doesn't plan to use the other party's strength. He didn't want to serve a queen, and he wasn't interested in dragons or anything like that.

If there is a reason, it is that the dragon in his mind is too far away from the dragon of this world. After all, he is a Chinese, the descendant of the dragon, and in his heart, the dragon is an invincible and inviolable existence.

But the dragons of this world, although their destructive power is quite strong, their defenses are too weak, and a giant ballista can do it.

In fact, Li Lingyi was already preparing, he thought that if the Dragon Mother insisted on unifying the continent in the future, then he would definitely have a war with her.

In that case, those dragons would be an obstacle that would absolutely need to be removed, and it would not be impossible for them to be shot by ballista before they could cause great damage.

As for the ghosts......

Li Ling was also a little helpless when he thought of that thing, to be honest, he couldn't think of a way to deal with strange ghosts now, relying on the dragon?

Rely on the army to throw torches, take the dragon crystal sword and go up and slash hard? I'm sorry, I can't compare with others in terms of numbers. Besides, people can assimilate you into a ghoul, just like a zombie, it's too hard to fight.

According to Li Lingyi's idea, it is difficult to deal with strange ghosts, and it should rely on magic.

Just as the dragon repeated, magic began to unfold on the continent.

If nothing else, let's just say that the thing Cersei used to blow up the entire cathedral in the play is a product of magic - wildfire.

It is a flame that burns the object and burns it out. Invented by the Alchemists' Guild in King's Landing, the method of making it is highly secret, but magic is used in the process.

The process of crafting wildfires is long and dangerous, but it will be easier to craft in the future, and an old wise man has said that the reason why the spell to create wildfires is not as effective as in ancient times is because dragons no longer exist.

Therefore, Li Lingyi was thinking that if the appearance of the dragon caused a resurgence of magic, the wildfire that could be made in batches might be the best weapon to deal with the ghosts.
