Chapter 325 The Palace

.lā

Compared to the teleportation of living people, the transmission of such small objects or only information is much easier.

Both the technical difficulty and the cost of consumption are low enough.

In Seris, the power of wizards has begun to permeate every aspect and become an integral part of the kingdom.

The battle report that Steck sent to the military headquarters arrived at the military headquarters in the evening, but Harvey felt that Malone was not very eager to know the news, so he did not report it overnight, but brought it up at the court meeting the next day.

His thoughts are indeed not far from the facts, and Malone actually got the news earlier than them.

He knew when the battle on the Great Wall was over and his experience no longer grew.

If you calculate the time, you probably know that the snow is almost melting by this time.

It's another year after the battle with the snowman, and compared to previous years, Malone doesn't seem to have much experience gained this year.

The new class level up requires more than he ever imagined.

After the battle, the experience bar was not even half reached.

Naturally, it's not that he's too far away from the battlefield, it's just that the new class needs too much experience points.

Ma Long doesn't think there's anything wrong, the stronger the strength, the more difficult it will naturally be to improve, this is a truth that most people understand.

The battle with the snowman is over, and the planned soldier retirement assessment is about to take place.

This matter does not need to be presided over by Malone himself, he just needs to keep an eye on it and not let his intention of hiding troops in the people deviate.

In fact, it is also a helpless move, if Seris is rich enough to raise a large number of soldiers, why is this?

The annual battle with the Yeti and the investment of a large amount of manpower and material resources have provided the kingdom with a large number of knights, but it has also slowed down the development progress economically.

For the sake of future stability and to deal with the inevitable crisis, Ma Long could not give up the development of military power under any circumstances.

In order to reduce military consumption, the knights can only be constantly arranged to retire.

After retirement, everyone will join the militia, because they will not be paid a salary and will have nothing to do in normal times.

Once in time of war, it is easy to raise an army of knights.

As long as Ma Long is given enough time, there will be no moths in the Great Snow Mountain, and he is confident that half of the people in the entire kingdom can have the knight's physique and learn the simple Seris military swordsmanship, which is the swordsmanship-related skills he has passed down!

Leaving soldiers out of service and reducing the number of regular troops is just one way to cut costs.

Of course, this is not the only plan, and there are some that are not so easy to implement, and are being discussed, such as building a fortress on the edge of the Great Wall, testing whether there are resources available in the surrounding area, and so on, in order to reduce military operating costs.

However, these are not things that can be achieved in a while, the kingdom is busy everywhere, and the appointments of the official engineering team are scheduled for two years......

In the first year after the establishment of the kingdom, Malone found that the people had exploded with great enthusiasm.

It seems that that new characteristic, the spirit of the kingdom has finally played a role, and all walks of life have begun to develop explosively, injecting a shot of strength into the development of the country.

When the whole country is working together, the power that erupts is huge, and it is an exaggeration to say that everything is one day at a time, but it is not far off.

With the development of agriculture, agricultural products are becoming more and more abundant, and no one is hungry because of the lack of rice and noodles.

A large number of people of insight who have read books and gone to school have begun to break away from the shackles of land and devote themselves to the construction of all walks of life, adding fuel to the fire of great development.

Ma Long originally invested in the construction of large and small colleges in various places, and finally showed his huge role and entered the harvest season......

When it was dark, Jack was rushing to the palace, and when he entered the first gate, he met Kane on patrol.

"Commander, where is Your Majesty?" His tone was a little hurried.

When Kane saw the visitor, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "It turned out to be Viscount Jack, is there anything important that you came to find Your Majesty at this time?" ”

Kane hesitated for a moment and said, "There are some emergencies in Tucheng in the north, and your majesty needs urgent instructions. ”

Seeing that the other party said seriously, Kane nodded, and led the way first, "Then you come with me, Your Majesty is dining with your family." ”

"Thank you!" Jack thanked him and hurried to follow.

Kane smiled, "It's all for Your Majesty, because of the ......"

After a short time, under the watchful eyes of a large number of guards, the two passed through several palace gates and entered the depths of the royal court.

In a large restaurant, Malone is dining with his family.

Compared with Pei Yang's castle-like palace, Ma Long incorporated some design concepts of ancient Chinese courts into the construction of his own palace for comfort.

In terms of security, it is naturally not as good as a castle-like building designed to prevent invasion, but it is indeed much more comfortable to live in.

Only those who have actually lived in a castle know that it is not as good to live as they imagined.

Buildings built entirely to defend against foreign enemies are not suitable for habitation.

Darkness and dampness are just the most basic problems.

In the past, there were no conditions, so I could only settle for it, but now Ma Long's status is different, so he naturally follows his own ideas.

When he is incapable, he can easily be branded as a heretic or burned to death if he does something out of the ordinary, so before that, he has always been cautious in all aspects.

Now that he has become the king of Seris, as one of the most powerful people in the continent, if Ma Long has any new moves, in the eyes of others, it is trendy and creative.

Even if he almost blatantly split the faith of the Lord of Light at the founding ceremony, Pei Yang's main hall only sent a letter of questioning, and he didn't do much.

And was directly ignored by Marlon!

As for the safety hazards caused by the royal palace not being built in the style of a castle, Malone also has his own considerations.

If someone could get to the palace gate, it wouldn't be a problem to get in.

At that time, the entire kingdom was probably on the verge of extinction, and it made no difference whether it was a castle or a palace.

And now that musket artillery is developing vigorously and becoming more and more powerful, whether the castle is or not is just the difference between a few more cannons and a few fewer cannons.

There was absolutely no need for him to grieve himself over the problem of a few shells.

In terms of people, the castle can only defend ordinary soldiers, and it is remarkable that it can withstand the attack of a small number of knights.

But now, not to mention the lack of knights, even wizards with various unique abilities are also increasing.

Compared to their defenseless abilities, a simple wall defense can't keep them out, it's almost a void!

In this era, if you really want to ensure safety, you have to focus on people.

Whether it is the army at the bottom or the masters at the top, the two complement each other and are indispensable.

As long as either Marlon and Salad are in the palace, and cooperate with the stronger and stronger forbidden army, the family will be as stable as Mount Tai.
