Chapter 193: Investigating the Wind Castle
Windcastle Government Office.
Since the establishment of an independent administrative city in the Wind Castle, it has become the power center of the Wind Castle, and the government and military orders of the Wind Castle are derived from here.
Wind Castle does not belong to Lanyan Province, it only belongs to the royal family, and it is up to the king to decide whether to accept or dismiss him, and every official of Wind Castle is basically from the Wind Castle Legion.
The reason for this is that in order to resist the "beast tide" of spring, only the commander of the Windcastle Legion can win this war more effectively, and only those from the Legion can be competent to defend the Windcastle.
Mitchelson has been the commander of the Wind Castle Legion for five years, and is about to usher in his sixth year, and it stands to reason that the Legion Commander who has served for five years has been transferred to the royal capital, after all, there are really few knights who can serve as the commander of the Wind Castle for six consecutive years, at least in the past hundred years, most of the Legion Commanders have died in the Wind Castle, which seems to have become the fate of the Legion Commanders.
However, the fact that Mitchelson has survived so far is enough to show his strength and intelligence.
At this moment, Mitchelson is holding a working meeting in the conference room to resist the tide of beasts.
He glanced at the political officials and deputy commanders of the Wind Castle and said, "This year is coming to an end, you know, the end means that spring is coming, that means that Wind Castle will become a military city, which means that the Demon Beasts will invade the kingdom, and we will fight to the death here." ”
Although most of the officials and legion generals of the Wind Castle had experienced the beast tide, they could not help but be moved, and some even began to whisper.
"It's been a fast year!"
"Yes, the end of the year also means that we are going to face the beast tide!"
"But isn't it, I don't know how many of us can survive this beast tide?"
"Don't be so pessimistic, the Lord Commander has been in the Wind Castle for five years, and he should have gone to the royal capital to serve a long time ago. ”
“......”
Mitchelson didn't stop the officials from talking, and when they were almost done, he coughed lightly, looked serious, and said: " I know, some of you are very strange, saying that I have been in the Wind Castle for five years, and I should have entered the Nine Divisions a long time ago, or directly entered the cabinet and became a cabinet minister, but what I want to tell you is that originally His Majesty wanted to transfer me to the royal capital, but I refused, because what I saw was that His Majesty was working hard, and His Majesty needed courtiers like me to garrison the Wind Castle, so that the kingdom could have a stable environment to develop, and His Majesty also had time to implement reforms, as you know, when the Wind Castle was originally built, it was to resist the demonic beasts in the misty forest, so, no matter what, this time, we must defend the Wind Castle and block the invasion of the demonic beasts, next, everyone has their own opinions!"
A political official immediately asked: "Your Excellency, you should know that every year to resist the tide of beasts, we recruit warriors and idle knights, which requires a large amount of money, as well as the pensions of legionnaires, etc., all need to be ......."
Mitchelson interrupted the words of the political officer, and he said slowly: "As early as a few months ago, His Majesty asked me to bring two million gold knives as funds to resist the beast tide this time, but this time, we don't need to recruit those warriors and idle knights, because Your Majesty will send some knights of the three major legions of the protector, the royal family, and the sunset to participate in the war against the beast tide, so, this time, I only ask your political officer to do a good job of logistics to ensure that the front-line soldiers have a hot meal, understand?"
All the government officials were overjoyed and immediately agreed.
......
The architecture of the Wind Castle is very different from the architectural style of other cities in Sunset City, most of them are stone houses at the top of the circle, and the tallest building is a fifteen-meter-high watchtower, which is a brick and stone structure, which is considered an outlier of the Wind Castle architecture, while the other buildings are all below ten meters.
Mars and Sally walked through the streets of Winfells, feeling the spirit of the people of Winfells, and could feel the worries of the civilians, it seemed that the beast tide had brought too much suffering to the civilians here.
But all in all, the people of Fengbao still have their own happy side, the strong men are angry at the people who don't like the eyes, the old men are unceremoniously angry at the juniors, and some of the fierce women are chasing their own men on the street......
Especially when she saw the chasing and beating the man, Sally's smug smile seemed to say to Mars, be careful, I will chase and beat you too!
Mars was speechless for a moment and said, "Sally, what do you think of the city of Windcastle?"
Sally paused slightly, she knew that Mars was asking her opinion, and she also had the identity of the king's secretary, since that was the case, she should speak her mind.
"Actually, for me, I don't like Wind Castle, it's windy and sandy, it's not good for the skin, and the people here are strong, not suitable for life, after all, I don't want to be blocked by fierce men and women all the time. ”
Mars nodded slightly, Sally was telling the truth, the current Wind Castle is still the result of the storm reducing several times, but every day he goes out, a layer of sand will accumulate on his body, and if he is outside the city, he can see a tornado sweeping through at any time.
So, it's not a good place to live, but it's also a place in Sunset City, and it has to be garrisoned.
What's more, regardless of the climate and weather, the geographical location here is indeed the best location to build a base, and the Gobi is vast, and you can build as big a base as you want.
And elsewhere, so far there is no suitable place to build a base.
Sally saw Mars's embarrassment, and said, "However, if what you said is true, this is indeed a good place to build a base, one is the small population here and easy to relocate, the second is the vast plain here, and the third is the closest place to the Misty Forest. But there are also disadvantages, do you want to hear it?"
Mars suddenly sighed in his heart, worthy of being the successor of the future Queen of the Falling Star, her wisdom is not comparable to ordinary women, he immediately smiled and said: "I want to hear it!"
Sally continued: "The disadvantage, obviously, one is that the storm here is too big, and you have to prevent the storm while building, which may slow down the construction period, the second is that the transportation here is not developed, if you don't build the road first, many building materials will not be transported smoothly, the third is that this place is the most remote city in Sunset City, and the allocation of labor is also a problem, and the fourth is that it has to resist the beast tide every year, if this is not solved, your base will not be able to start work at all, and the rest has not been thought about yet, in short, you have to solve these four first." ”
Mars nodded cautiously, Sally did say that the difficulty was also something that had to be solved before the city was built, he paused slightly, and said: "Since the difficulty cannot be solved for the time being, we have also been inspecting for three days, and the new policy of Wind Castle is quite good, and it finally makes me feel comfortable, why don't we celebrate?"
Sally suddenly glared at her and said, "What are you thinking about in broad daylight, you are also a respected king, can you not be so sexy?"
Marston didn't know what to say, did he say he was going to do that?
Looking at the embarrassed Mars, Sally couldn't help but show a smug smile, as if to say, can't you be cured?
Sally said, "It's been three days, we should also go to Grace's, don't you want to go, it's your ancestor's legacy!"
"Let's go, then!" said Mars listlessly.
Sally paused slightly, then whispered in her ear, "When it's over, I'll let you get enough!"
"Really?" said Marston, but he felt that Sally's words were inappropriate.
Sally scolded, "Fake! Are you going?"
Mars exclaimed, "Go, go, go and call Audrey!"
