Audrey, who had become the captain of the palace guard, was always on her side, and when she saw Mars's melancholy look, she couldn't help asking, "Mars, you seem to have troubles?"

Mars smiled slightly, and glanced at Audrey, who did not call himself "Your Majesty" because he was the king, which made him very happy, because in his opinion, the king was a chore, a burden, of course, a means of success for him, but it was by no means enjoyment, never a sense of superiority over the people, although he had to pretend to be cold in front of the ministers, he preferred that his friends call him by his name.

"Audrey, I never thought that it would be so difficult to govern a country before, I always felt that as long as I inherited the throne, I would manage the country according to my own will, but now, every step is really difficult, I have some thoughts of giving up!"

Audrey blinked, as if she didn't understand what Mars was saying, but she smiled and said, "Mars, I think you want to be a good king, but you have to deal with a kingdom like a mess." I don't know how to govern the country, but the chamberlains in the palace secretly praise you for being a good king. ”

"Good king?" Mars shook his head slightly, he was only raising the salaries of officials, knights, soldiers, and other personnel in the kingdom.

He learned this from Arbus's business management, and that regular increases in the salaries of employees help them to increase their motivation to work and thus play a greater value.

The matter of the temple was put aside for the time being, and Mars believed that the temple did not dare to do anything to the kingdom, and as long as the temple did not interfere with the reform, he would ignore the temple for the time being.

But is there a decree that should be enforced?

The decree to repeal the "Forbidden Demon Order" may push him to the forefront, or he may be resisted or even invaded by the six kingdoms, and he needs to weigh the pros and cons.

It would be nice if Teacher Mura could help him, with the strength of Mura's Sky Breaker, I am afraid it is enough to fight against Pope Bridges, and as for the others, the strength of Mars's side does not have to worry at all.

Frank is a Grand Knight, Macallan is a High-Rank Knight, Du Wei is a High-Rank Middle-Rank Knight, and there are three High-Rank Beginner Knights, which should be enough to fight against the Temple of Light.

However, if the provinces controlled by the three dukes were united with the Temple of Light, it would be different.

"Do you want to solve the problem of the three dukes first?"

Mars suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his heart, if he could solve the problem of the three dukes first, then the kingdom would be unified in form, and his decree would naturally be accessible.

That night, Mars sent people to find Du Wei and McCarron, and now the military supreme commander of the Sunset City Kingdom is Mars, Du Wei and Macallan are temporary deputy commanders, but they have no real power, they are still the heads of the Royal Knights and the Sunset Knights.

In the tea room, Marles made tea for the two captains, much to their dismay, but the cunning Macallan seemed to sense that something must happen tonight.

After chatting for a while, Mars asked, "Two commanders, what do you think of the expansion of the two knights of the royal family and the sunset into two legions of 50,000 people, with a total number of 100,000?"

Suddenly, Du Wei and McCarran were shocked, after all, the royal family and the two knights of Sunset have been inherited for nearly a thousand years, and they are a little uncomfortable with this sudden change to a legion.

Du Wei quickly figured it out, and he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has no opinion, but Your Majesty wants to train the soldiers himself." ”

"Of course, that's fine, you can do whatever you want!" Mars smiled.

But when Macallan saw Mars smile like this, his heart suddenly became nervous, he complained a little about Du Wei's rectum, why did he agree so quickly? It made him very passive, when he saw Mars's smile, he suddenly had a sense of helplessness, this young king's city is very deep, and he called him and Du Wei together, so that after Du Wei agreed, he had to agree.

McCarron smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has no opinion, but Your Majesty is old, with old arms and legs, and he doesn't have so much energy to train soldiers, but His Majesty wants to recommend a person who is enough to be competent for the important task of training soldiers." ”

Mars smiled in his heart, this old guy is amazing, take the opportunity to ask for an official position for his juniors, he smiled slightly, and said: "The person recommended by Captain McCarron should be very good, I am approved!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" McCarron stood up and saluted, a look of gratitude.

However, then, when Mars consulted the two about being the three dukes, they both gradually smelled a hint of war.

As a result, after the recruitment of soldiers was handed over to Dewey and McCarran, Mars had to negotiate with Frank, because Mars needed the help of the Holy City, or the Alliance.

In a secret room, Mars and Frank sat opposite each other, the tea on the table already cold.

"Frank, is Arbus's business settled?" Mars asked.

Frank smiled: "Abs has sent a message that he has regained the power of the Chamber of Commerce, but it will take half a month to reorganize all the Harry Chamber of Commerce, so it will take another month for Abs to return to the king...... Mars, what's the matter?"

Mars frowned slightly, and said, "I need the help of the Alliance, and I hope you can get in touch with the Alliance as soon as possible, but the merchant ship has been destroyed, and your pass has also been lost." ”

Frank suddenly understood, and laughed: "Mars, the pass is not lost, it is still in my storage space, and I have good news for you, the merchant ship of the Dawson Chamber of Commerce will come to the royal capital next month." ”

"Really?" Mars exclaimed in disbelief, and then he reined in a little, he really wouldn't pretend to be deep, "When the time comes, I'll let you ...... No, you can't leave for the time being, I have to settle the affairs of the three dukes first, and then I will hand over this task to Arbus!"

Frank naturally knew that he was important to Mars now, so he didn't say anything, and during this time, he also seemed to like the feeling of being an official.

Mars's reforms continued and effectively, of course, this was because he controlled the two major knights and 30,000 city defenses, and most of the nobles were in prison, and the rest were no longer a threat to Mars, and like some royal nobles, they still enjoyed the treatment of royal nobles and would not make waves.

Therefore, Mars's decree was almost unhindered, thanks to the fact that the Grand Prince Muse and Bella had enough nobles and ministers to bribe up.

However, this has also led to the phenomenon that many positions are now unofficial, resulting in an increased workload for current officials.
