Chapter 1: The Return
When the messenger of the Theological Society returned to the procession with the letters of Yishan and Uris, it was March 21, 134 AH. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 InfoAt this time, the party happened to pass through the border of a Leyting faction, and there were about 50,000 people who wanted to settle in this Leyting faction, so Maier let them leave the group. In this way, the total number of people in the ranks becomes six hundred thousand.
The rest of the journey went smoothly, and after forty days, the team arrived at the border of Kamijin Prefecture.
Faced with a team of hundreds of thousands and the destination was Bairensburg, Welling was shocked and frightened. Among the forces around Shangjin County, the Xiaohu family and the Egus Kingdom are obviously oriented towards Byronsburg. If Byrensburg were to gain these hundreds of thousands of people, Byrensburg would have plenty of soldiers. In the unlikely event that the Xiaohu family and the Kingdom of Egus supported Byrensburg in declaring war on Shangjin County, the situation of Shangjin County would become very dangerous.
The Republic of Bujin was an Ilibian power, so after the war between Byronsburg and Kamijin County, it was impossible for Welling to get reinforcements from the Bukins. As for the other surrounding forces, Wei Lin has also sent someone to ask.
The Elt Kingdom is the only force in the region that can compete head-on with the Xiaohu family, but for some reason, the Elt Kingdom is actually on the side of Byrensburg on the issue of Shangjin County. The Chaoxin State of the Mingji people was not interested in the issue of Shangjin County, and the remaining forces were all vassals of the big forces and had no political autonomy.
In other words, if Byronsburg and Kamijin went to war, Kamijin would have to fight against Byrensburg and its allies alone. Even if the Xiaohu family and the Egus Kingdom did not participate in the war, the situation of Shangjin County would still be grim.
Kamijin Prefecture suffered heavy losses in the last war and was also saddled with war reparations. As soon as the New Year passed, the Bujin people began to urge Shangjin County to pay this year's indemnity. Welling did not dare to offend the Bukin, so he could only pay a million Galle in advance, so that he did not even have the money to rearmament.
Before Mel's party reached the border of Kamijin County, Welling sent spies to reconnoiter the situation. In the aftermath of the "Tazawakuni Incident", people who had undergone temporary military training were reluctant to take off their gear and kept moving forward as soldiers. There were more than 100,000 people willing to fight, so Mel's team looked like an army with his family from a distance.
In order to avoid conflicts, the forces along the way were very cooperative in helping Maier plan the most efficient route, and when selling supplies, they did not dare to take the opportunity to raise the price, all of them were sold at market prices, and troops were sent to "protect" them.
The spies from Shangjin County first inquired about some information from the locals, and then mixed in with the people watching the excitement to personally confirm the situation of Meier's team, and then hurriedly returned to resume his life. When he learned that Mel had a hundred thousand well-armed troops, Wellin was almost stunned.
Now, even if the old capital of Shangjin County is put together, Wei Lin will not be able to gather 20,000 people. Even if the 100,000 men in Meier's hands were militiamen, there was no chance that Wehrin would be defeated.
If he didn't let people cross the border, Welling might have to go to war with Byronsburg right now. If they were to be released across the border, Wehrin would have to face an even more formidable enemy in the future. So no matter how you choose, Shangjin County is a dead end.
After thinking about it, apart from severing relations with Yongshan Country and hugging the thighs of alien forces, Wei Lin had no way to keep Shangjin County. In doing so, Wei Lin was bound to be regarded as a national traitor by the people of Shangjin County, but even so, Wei Lin resolutely embarked on this road.
Since it is a thigh, it is natural to hug a thick one. Among the surrounding forces, the Elt Kingdom and the Xiaohu family have the thickest thighs, but the Elt Kingdom does not accept Wei Lin's allegiance, so Wei Lin can only go to the Xiaohu family. The Xiaohu family accepted Wellin's allegiance, and Shangjin County was incorporated into the Xiaohu family's territory, but this was after Mayr's party arrived at Byronsburg.
On April 27, 134 New Calendar, Meier's party bypassed the Twenty-Nine Village and entered the territory of Liangyue City. After the team entered the territory of Shangjin County, the Byrensburg side began to send frequent contacts with Meier. After entering the territory of Liangyue City, the guide from Bairensburg led the party towards the plain under the Bairensburg Mountain.
On May 2, the team arrived at its destination. Nami Laymen set up camp for the Letting people by an unnamed river, and after nearly three months of construction, Byron Fort had built a camp for 800,000 people. Nami Layman's vision was to build a city here, so as long as these Leting people built according to the framework of the camp, it would not be long before the city could be revealed.
As soon as the line stopped, the merchants who followed the line swarmed up and recommended their goods to the Letings. The Letings were accustomed to this, and they carved out a trading area outside the camp where the purchasers would buy supplies from the merchants.
After accommodating the soldiers and civilians, Maier handed over the party to Burton, and then headed to Byronsburg with his family and friends, as well as Larzi. On the evening of May 2, Meier and the others finally arrived at the West Gate Trading Post.
After setting a date for Maier's return, Yishan and Ulis issued an announcement stating that the Westgate Trading Post would be temporarily closed from May 1 to May 3, and that all unrelated people would be expelled from the Ximen Trading Post at noon on April 30, and they would not be allowed to camp within the security area of the Ximen Trading Post.
At noon on May 2, all the top brass of Byronsburg arrived at the West Gate Trading Post, ready to greet Maier. Representatives from each department came, and Ulis pulled out the musket team that had just finished their recruit training to greet them at the welcoming ceremony. This wasteful behavior made Nami Jushi very distressed, and if the ammunition used by the musketeers was not bought back at cost price, they would have to kill two Taiyong dollars in one salvo.
In addition to the greetings, the welcome team prepared a lot of surprises for Maier, but before they could show them off, Maier gave them a surprise.
As the team was about to arrive at the Westgate Trading Post, Meier asked everyone to fire magic flares of various colors in the direction of the Westgate Trading Post, illuminating the night as bright as day. Colorful magic flares fall slowly like meteors, and like colorful raindrops falling from the sky, making people let out bursts of amazement.
Yishan and Euris were the first to come to their senses, knowing that it was Maier and they had arrived, and immediately had the door open and then go out with the welcoming party to greet them. Since there was no rehearsal, the welcome ceremony was chaotic. Urise's musket team fired in unison, and Yishan's Taeyong drum team was startled by the sound of gunfire, and the drumming suddenly stopped, only to recover after a while.
Lingyu asked the witches to prepare a dance, but the scene quickly became very chaotic, and they had no chance to dance at all, so they could only stand honestly in the back.
When Mel's old men saw that their master had returned, they all rushed up, and surrounded Myr's mount and chattered incessantly. Nanyi wanted to go up and say a congratulatory speech, but before she could speak, a strong wind blew, just in the blink of an eye, Yan He, who was still riding on a horse before, appeared in front of Nanyi Jushi, hugged her face and kissed her several times.
Yu Changnian saw that the scene was so chaotic, so he didn't take his daughter and squeezed forward. He Yan Zhiliang hesitated whether to go to report to Maier first, or go to see his younger brothers and sisters first, and before he could make a decision, He Yan Zhiheng turned over and dismounted, ran over and gave him a bear hug.
"Big brother! I am back! ”
In the noise, He Yan Zhiliang only heard this sentence clearly. He Yan Xinye stood behind He Yan Zhiheng, she just smiled at He Yan Zhiliang and did not speak.
Mel's head was blown up by the garbled voices, but he spoke patiently to his old subordinates.
"Okay, I know you have a lot to say, and I'll give you that chance when I get back to the castle. Now I'm going to see your future mistress, can you make a way for me? ”
The old subordinates were reluctant, but they made way for Mehr. As soon as Maier turned over and dismounted, he found that Yishan and Euris had come from the path that their old men had given way.
He immediately stepped forward, hugged the two of them, and kissed them on the cheeks. Euris was startled at first, and then leaned into Myer's arms with a happy face. Yishan blushed to the root of her ears shyly, not daring to open her closed eyes.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Mel said this from the heart, and Ulis and Yishan recalled their dedication to Byrensburg after Mel left, and their noses were sore, and tears began to roll in their eyes.
Maier patted the girls on the back, then let go of their waists and walked towards the welcoming procession. Among Meier's old subordinates, only Changrong and the Kugi Five-member group stood calmly in the welcoming procession. The former is really calm, and the latter is because He Yan Zhiliang didn't move, so they didn't move either.
Naturally, there were several important leaders standing at the front of the team, because Nanyi Jushi was hugged by Yanhe, Maier couldn't go directly to her, so he could only come to Lingyu and Yu Changnian first, and simply asked the two about the development of the territory, and affirmed the merits of the two.
Maier then summoned Changrong and Yu Mingli over, inquired about the security situation in the territory, and also affirmed their merits, encouraging them to continue their efforts.
Seeing that Yanhe had enough of it, Maier found Nami and asked her about the specific planning plan of the Leiting camp, and affirmed Nami Juren's merits. In the end, Meier came to He Yan Zhiliang and asked about the operation of the Ximen Trading Post, and also affirmed his merits, and praised He Yan Zhiheng and He Yan Xin's performance when they went out.
After this, Meier led the group back to Byrensburg. He sent his old men to his residence on standby, dismissed the others, and brought only the leadership of Byronsburg and the main members of his team to the council chamber.
Maier first introduced Larzi and Bolton to the leadership of Byronsburg, but Larzi was the only one who came, so the meeting between the crowd and Bolton could only be said later. Maier then introduces them to Pershing and Barton, and then the friends he brought back from the Letin-Sackin School of Magic.
Meyer also introduced the leadership of Byronsburg to these people, and finally he very formally introduced his four fiancées to the people from Sackin.
After the introduction, Maier had several lodgings vacated for the guests to live in, and had unrelated people taken out of the council chamber. Larzi, Pershing and Barton all remained, which means that Maier has brought these three men into the leadership of Byronsburg, which means that they have officially become part of Byronsburg.
"With the arrival of 600,000 migrants, we will face a lot of problems. The first is the demographic composition of Byronsburg......"
Before the arrival of immigrants, the total population of Byronsburg had already crossed the 10,000 mark. Among them, the Ira people account for the largest proportion, accounting for more than 50 percent, the ancient people account for about 30 percent, and the Tairong people account for 2 percent. The lifestyles of the three races were very different, and Meier intended to speed up racial integration and make Byronsburg a place where any race could be accommodated.
The advent of new shrines gave the people of Byrensburg a common faith, which was of great benefit to accelerating ethnic integration. But Meyer didn't want Bylensburg to divide the 600,000 Leitins, so there had to be a certain number of Leiding immigrants in Byrensburg, and the proportion of them could not be less than one-tenth.
So Maier was going to have the Theological Society select 2,000 people to move to Byrensburg in the near future. There are now five well-equipped annexed villages in Byronsburg, which share a population of nearly 4,000. Two months earlier, the construction of three more annexed villages had begun, which were now ready for occupancy, and had contributed to the population of 2,000 people for Byrensburg.
Today, Byrensburg has the capacity to support more than 6,000 inhabitants, so even if another 2,000 immigrants come in, it will not be a burden on Byrensburg. The newcomers were all followers of the God of Light and were not doctrinally different from the new god community, so they could quickly integrate into the Byronsburg and promote inter-ethnic integration.
After finalizing the move to Byronsburg, Maier made a simple reshuffle of the leadership. Nami Jushi was transferred out of Bairensburg to take charge of the construction planning of the 600,000 Leiding immigrants, and Yu Changnian took over all her work in Bairensburg. Yu Mingli was promoted to sheriff of Byronsburg, and the former sheriff Chang Rong was transferred out of Byronsburg and went to the Letting camp with Meier's old men to form a new security force.
In the leadership of Byronsburg, the father and daughter of the Yu family held military and political power, which shows that Meier trusted the two very much. The Yu family was very touched by Myer's trust, and from this moment on, the two truly returned to their hearts, and on the premise of being loyal to Nami Layman, they became Myer's followers.
