The sky is warm, and the autumn cicadas are singing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's an ordinary day close to winter, it's rare that the sun is shining outside, and it's just early in the morning, and the sun is shining on people's hearts.

Most of the residents of Changhu Town are still on the road and pass on the horrors of waking up last night, but those in public office have to put their minds away and start busy early.

Those who clean the streets, patrol people, and shout and sell are a little more lively than before.

The townsfolk with dark circles under their eyes didn't feel much sleep, and even the laziest idlers went out to inquire about the news, hoping to dispel the heavy gloom in their hearts.

The mayor's office is not yet crowded with anxious townspeople, but that kind of scene is probably expected, but it is a little less primer, such as a person who takes the lead.

The council chamber was very clean, with seven or eight busy figures.

The servants would clean the place every day, and try to keep it clean, even if it was in some sense unnecessary.

Successive mayors, few of them will work decently.

In particular, Powers, who directly expanded the administrative office into a private residence, rarely attended regular meetings, and it was good to be able to attend two or three times a week.

Every time he attends a meeting, he either asks for taxes or asks for money. Even in those cases, he had to make others wait a long time to assert his authority.

As for the new mayor Ling Qi, he has been a shopkeeper since he took office.

In just a few days, the townspeople were accustomed to the change of superiors.

The only merit of this man who is not more diligent than Bowers is that he is magnanimous, and the spokesman he chooses is much easier to deal with than the obscene and greedy clerk.

This was the first time that Ling Qi had officially entered the council hall since taking office, and it was still early, the servants had just finished scrubbing the floor, and before they could start doing other work, they had gathered together to whisper.

His arrival surprised everyone, and the maids and waiters who had been talking and laughing were immediately silent, and some of them were so frightened that their hands and feet were cold, and Ling Qi acquiesced to these changes.

When the servants saw that the lord did not rebuke him, they began their work with anxiety and apprehension. Wipe the table of the table, the bucket of the bucket, dry and hard work.

Ling Qi turned a blind eye to these industrious ants and did not express any opinion, as if he was far away from the present world.

He sat lazily in his office chair with his legs crossed. It took about a quarter of an hour to wait for the Nitin to arrive.

The guy who ran the errand was really not fast enough, and this smiling teenager was now empty-handed, and it seemed that most of the tasks required by the lord had been completed.

Ling Qi didn't have too many surprises and regrets, he just raised his head and took a breath of air with a rich wetness, as if he could feel the scorching heat from behind the wetness.

"My lord, are you looking for me?"

Nitin bowed and saluted, with a very good attitude.

In front of outsiders, he strives to behave perfectly, even if it is only a few servants around him.

The servants didn't have the courage to look directly at the number one red man in front of the lord, and some of the finished ones had already begun to pack up their things and prepare to leave quietly.

"Well, how's it going?"

Ling Qi nodded, his question made Nitin slightly stunned, probably not wanting to rush so much, but fortunately, he had already done it.

After a few thoughts in his heart, Nitin did not hesitate too much, and quickly replied:

"It's all done according to the adult's request. ”

That's it... Is that really the case...

Ling Qi nodded, thinking about how long it would take for the change to appear, and what he should prepare.

Even if he cares a lot about the new changes after ordinary people absorb the blood of demons, he won't show it too obviously.

Moreover, it is likely that the subtle changes will not appear immediately, so he diverted the topic and asked:

"How are the town's utilities restored? Have you picked out all the heads of departments I asked you to find? Besides, what do you have to say to me about conscription?"

Ling Qi asked, and the servants around him who had not yet left pricked up their ears.

Changhu Town is so big, and everyone is related to each other, or neighbors, so they are very concerned about first-hand information about the change of authority, how can they understand the mind of the strong.

Someone's thoughts have long drifted to a far, far away place.

Seeing that Ling Qi had not driven the servant out, Nitin replied seriously, although he thought it was inappropriate:

"Most of the utilities that were abandoned due to lack of funding have been restored... But there are others, which have fallen into disrepair or have been repurposed for other purposes, and still need a little time to rebuild. ”

"As for the list of the heads of the hierarchy and the new candidates for parliament, I went to consult the public opinion, and it is on the record, which was put on your desk yesterday. ”

"In terms of government affairs, because of everyone's enthusiastic help, everything is in order, just to expand the army..."

Nitin hesitated, presumably considering his words.

When he saw Ling Qi's face was slightly gloomy, he didn't know how to raise the situation of insufficient troops for a while. He didn't think that the lord would know anything about it, but he couldn't understand the thoughts of the superiors, so he could only pick and choose the good report.

"At present, the number of registered soldiers has increased by 32, and the total number has reached 88. ”

"These new soldiers who have joined the Changhu Town Guard are all full of enthusiasm. ”

"The only thing missing is training. They don't seem to be very attentive to our training methods, shouting hard and tired every day, and even many people use excuses to avoid daily training, and the discipline is obviously not strict enough. ”

"Personally, I don't think it's a shortage of sergeants, it's a lack of how to fight. ”

"Under the current circumstances, instead of rushing to expand the scale, it is better to streamline the administration and implement the policy of elite integration. ”

"Regarding the discipline of soldiers, maybe you should set up some separate system of rewards and punishments. For fighters who violate discipline, a part of their salary can be deducted, or even permanently deprived of military status. ”

Of course, this also applies to other public officials. ”

Nitin proposes that no one will like it except for the superiors.

However, these are all sensible things to do. I have to say that this kid is still very administratively minded.

He was talking about streamlining the administration of the army, just to tell Ling Qi that for the entire Changhu Town, an army of close to 100 people was already a serious burden, which would make the military a bloated and redundant part of the new town, and then a parasitic tumor.

There is no need to expand the army.

Of course, there is a threat from the orcs outside, and there is peace of mind from the people, and Nitin will not be stupid enough to propose disarmament.

It's just that Ling Qi really doesn't know anything about it?

I've never eaten pork and I've seen pigs run, not to mention that it's not the first time he's been a leader, not to mention that these so-called elites have grown up with his own eyes, not to mention that he is the strongest soldier himself!

I saw him wave his hand and said indifferently:

"It's only 88? It's too few, and the scale must continue to expand! Not to mention 200 people, 150 people is the bottom line!"

"As for the lack of enthusiasm but lack of energy, is it because the training intensity is too high now?

Hearing Ling Qi say this, Nitin was first startled, and then stunned.

He didn't expect the lord to be so obsessed with expanding the size of his troops, which was simply asking all the people to be soldiers.

As for the lack of energy, this is a common shortcoming of ordinary people, especially in Changhu Town, which has been weak for a long time, and the light and strong can't eat enough, where does the excess energy that matches enthusiasm come from?

Could it be that he relied on those medicines? the ones he poured into the pot of tomato soup with his own hands!

However, he didn't think that the effect of the drug would be so obvious that it would turn a rabbit into a tiger in no time.

It wasn't that he didn't think of the training camp in the Land of Honey, and no one knew the changes in them better than themselves.

But even that kind of rebirth took half a year, and the wine and meat diet was sufficient every day.

Now, those guys are probably still scrambling for tomato egg soup!

The welfare of the new town of Long Lake is outrageous, which is the biggest reason why the town has settled down so quickly.

Especially for the soldiers, the daily good wine and meat are not mentioned, and the salary has been increased by a full twenty times!

Brave men come out under heavy rewards, so their enthusiasm far exceeds the upper limit of their own energy.

Physical fitness deficiencies, lack of energy due to long-term nutritional imbalances, can not be improved overnight.

Ling Qi saw Nitin's mind and didn't intend to explain.

Even the requirements for conscription are now only more demanding than they were yesterday. Although he no longer has demon blood, he still has more than eighty potions!

This drug allows ordinary people to greatly stimulate their potential in a short period of time, at the cost of the loss of lifespan, the more used at one time, the greater the stimulation amplitude, and the more vitality consumed.

According to the experiments done by Charles in the Land of Honey, when the total amount of medication reaches 100 standard doses of 150 people in half a year, that is, after each person takes two-thirds of the potions in a row for half a year, the best effect can be achieved!

Everyone is like a wolf, their strength and stamina have all increased dramatically, and they have at least two to three years left to live!

Ling Qi's practice is like drinking a donkey to quench thirst, the effect is worse, but the loss is greater, and the only thing that shortens is time.

"Also, with regard to discipline, there is no need to set up any reward and punishment system, it is just a waste of time. ”

Nitin's proposal was rejected again, and Ling Qi really didn't feel the need to waste this time. He didn't bother to explain his reasons, and only announced decisions and orders.

His words relieved some people, after all, according to Nitin, even lazy servants were deducted from their salaries.

Waving his hand to signal Nitin to be calm, Ling Qi said again:

"Even, if it is for the soldiers, even the original discipline can be a little more relaxed. ”

This is definitely not what a wise lord should say, discipline is the soul of the army, and an undisciplined army can fight locusts and scourges!

Nitin had frowned, but had not retorted.

A hundred points of friendship, even if you don't accept them as followers, means absolute loyalty!

"Still, there's a point!"

Ling Qi turned around and leaned forward slightly.

"No matter how bad their military discipline is, no matter what kind of goods they are, they must give me the only prohibition to obey, and that is to obey all my orders unconditionally!"

"Obedience is the only thing I ask of them, and of course this includes other non-combatants!"

"As for those who disobey, the only punishment will be met - death!"

The sudden cold voice made the faces of the servants who had not yet left turn pale, and some of them seemed to recall the tragic situation in the hall a few days ago.

The naked killing intent was noisy, filling this hall that was not too bright with an eerie smell, as if dozens of unjust souls were wandering and wailing.

"In my territory, in my troops, my word is the only order!"

"Anyone who dares or attempts to disobey the order will be killed, without asking the reason or the reason!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Do you understand?"

The three killing words show his determination. No preferential policy is just a trick to win people's hearts, and this is his only requirement!

Rules, principles, goodwill, beliefs?

Don't be stupid, I'll pay for it, you sell your life, it's that simple!

Only in this way can more troops be summoned in the shortest possible time, which represents more cannon fodder and stronger combat effectiveness!

Ling Qi's eyes were blazing as he stared at Nitin, who was even starting to breathe heavily.

"Got it!"

It took more than a dozen seconds for Nitin to speak loudly.

Ling Qi nodded, with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Well, go ahead, keep an eye on those guys, and someone will give you a prestige soon!"

"There are always some people who suddenly gain great power, and then they become unbelievable. ”

"They can be undisciplined, they can be lawless, they can do all kinds of obscene actions against Iluvita. ”

"But anyone who dares to disobey my commands—"

"Kill!"

"Don't forget, bring a few more old people. ”

Nitin solemnly accepted the order, and although there were some slight complaints about the lord's final arrangement, as if it was a distrust of his ability, he did not object.

He began to pay attention to the drugs he had put into the past, and began to realize Ling Qi's true purpose, which was not pleasing to him, but would become his only code of conduct!
