[Ding, congratulations to the host for building a new class transfer facility, the avalanche defender transfer is opened, the Aurora Knight advanced is opened, and the Long Wind Knight is turned on, please throw the civilians in, wait 2 minutes, and a powerful warrior will jump out...... Do you think I'm going to say that? Don't dream, this is a real world, so there is no such messy job transfer system that is neither scientific nor magical. 】

[Want a powerful warrior? Okay, train and train yourself. - Build a barracks and plan to send troops? The interstellar war next door is beckoning. 】

Well, it's really not that simple to want a powerful class, but the most unscientific and non-magical system actually spits out that I'm not scientific, and it's really as bad as ever.

This is already the third day of the triumphal celebration of the "Day of Return", but not to mention that the celebrations of Diefend have not stopped, and the celebrations have expanded to the level of the whole country.

"In that case, simply celebrate the whole country for a week and give amnesty to the world. Well, the food comes from the national treasury, so let the people who have been suppressed for a long time have a good time. ”

This is my judgment, although it is clear that it has the taste of buying people's hearts, but in this stormy time, it can indeed play a role in calming people's hearts.

The celebration is nothing more than food, wine, music and cultural performances, coupled with various special activities, singing and dancing in the square outside the window, and the sound of drums and music is shocking, but in this palace, it has already returned to the busy daily life.

"According to your plan, there will be five more days of return day celebrations, as well as the provision of food for the celebrations to other towns, at least more than two months' additional food rations will be used, and there will be a shortage of food supplies in advance. Although there is a sponsorship of well-wishers this time, it is really a lot. That expected resource gap is always a concern. If the proposer is not you. I would absolutely stop at nothing to block the proposal. Then find a reason to throw the proposer to the border to work as a coolie. ”

The words of the chief lady of the court, Kelly, are also the common thoughts of the administrative officials, they are so tired that they want to break a copper coin and spend it for two days, how can such a "luxury and waste" be endured, if it is not for me to suppress it, I am afraid that this celebration will not be held at all.

"It's been a hard work, but it's worth it. On the one hand, treat the people, although the harvest season is still bleak. But it's not their fault. After a year of hard work, it was time for them to rest for a few days. On the other hand, we also need to give the public a new impression that everything will be different from today, and that will make a lot of work easier in the future. ”

Morale? Popularity? What do people want? This seemingly illusory thing, in a sense, will also play a key and positive role, at least to make the people fill their stomachs and have a hope for a better future, which is the only thing we can do now.

To really change the country, of course. But we still have to do it one step at a time.

My whimsical direct request to the system was met with the more whimsical answer I expected. Every soldier needs several years or even more than ten years of training, build a barracks and throw resources into the army? It would be nice if it could be done in reality.

"Then, the most important work at present is still those two things, one is the reorganization of the main army corps, and the other is the food problem ......"

Although Sparrow is small, there are at least thirty officials in this urgently convened internal affairs council, and judging from the contact just now, there are still many talents among them, Renee and Arashi's royal family can survive to this day, these experienced and diligent administrators have contributed a lot.

The family is poor and filial piety, and the country is difficult to know the virtuous ministers, should we be grateful for so many years of hard work, to be able to organize a celebration in just ten hours, calculate the pressure that a week's celebration will cause on next year's food supply, and then set up a new legion station, the grass platform team in Sulfur Mountain City that is "the sage is right" will never be able to do it.

But no matter how strong the administrative skills are, it is still from the efficient use of effective resources, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and if there is nothing, no matter how strong the administrative master is, he still can't do things.

As a newcomer, not only do I have no official position, but I still sit on the main seat to preside over the internal affairs meeting, but they take it for granted...... Well, the least accustomed person in the meeting is myself.

After all, I have long been accustomed to the unreliable group of people under me, and I used to spend most of the time in meetings wrestling with them, trying to pull the topics that have gone off the rails back to the original point, but now I am a little unaccustomed to discussing issues with the participants so seriously.

Looking at the work attitude of the group of middle-aged and elderly officials with serious faces, constantly taking notes, thinking and then asking questions, I really want to pull the snowhoofs who are still carnival in the square and let them see how others are doing things seriously.

"As for food, there should be a batch of meat in half a month, and if you make good reserves, it should prolong the consumption for a period of time."

Kelly immediately realized.

"You mean the whale?"

I nodded, it was a waste to leave the dead uniwhale carcass in the sea, and I had already sent the Northern Lights off to haul it back with food in mind.

Considering that it is too large, if you can't drag it, you can cut it into pieces of meat on the spot and bring it back.

Even if the top sea monster dies, the reserved power will last for a while, and there is no need to worry that the fish and shrimp will find it so soon, whale meat can be used as food, and there seem to be top-level spices in the body, which is a lot of wealth, and it is a pity to waste it.

"As for fundamentally solving the food problem, I also have a plan, and there should be no problem in selling this harvest in exchange for at least two or three years of disaster relief grain, so this can be discussed in the long run."

After all, Donglan is a small country, and the large amount of resources that make the emperors of the superpower, Oran Empire, tremble and feel heartache, is even more astronomical for a small country, and it is possible to eat for a few years.

Asked, the head of finance flipped through his records, and then nodded affirmatively.

"If you take those gems and minerals and sell them, let alone two years, five years is enough."

I nodded in satisfaction, but at the same time remembered the bitter face of Dathos when he was blackmailed, and. Listen to Rosemary. She has broken into the inner echelons of the Orlan Empire. Maybe there's still room for me to play tricks in the future.

"From a suspicious maid to the top of the power, and said that she might step into a higher level, I really don't know how she did it......"

Although she has always refused to invest in the reason for her ascension to the sky, I don't think she would lie, except that her life box is still in my hands, and the top-level intelligence of the entire continent from her also proves that she has indeed come into contact with high-level intelligence.

"It's obviously not okay to just eat a big family, but at least it doesn't hurt to eat for a few years. I will find a way to solve the food problem, so let's talk about which proposal - army expansion. ”

If it were other countries, the proposal to expand the army would be a life-threatening proposal, and the doves and hawks would fight together, unless the emperor was high-pressured, and it would be a dream not to talk about it for three or five or even one or twenty years, and the strengthening of the central army would have to take into account the reaction of the local lords, even if it was passed by luck. Really wait for the formation of the legion, and when the time comes, it will be necessary to snatch military positions and military power.

But for Donglan, who has struggled in the Northland for so long. This is simply a coveted expectation, and the fundamental reason why the army has not been expanded before is because it cannot be raised.

"Whether it's for future wars or to protect the populace from the winter beast tides, there are no more powerful legions in the Northlands. Then, the first thing to do is to restore the establishment of the country of Arashi in the past, with my knights as the core, and reorganize the various legions, the original name will not be changed, the banner will not be changed, and the equipment and supplies will be the original, and if there is an old backbone to help, it should be able to take shape within ten years. ”

Looking around, the people who saw it nodded slightly in agreement, and there were excited eyes, the people of the Lan Kingdom had enough of the lack of troops, as long as the resources kept up, and they could form a real strong army, this is a good thing to dream of.

"In fact, young people have always had a strong will to protect their families and protect the country, and those who took the initiative to sign up for the army have always exceeded our logistics carrying capacity.

"Well, the big conscription will start after this celebration is over, if you don't have enough equipment, you will first use simple wooden swords and wooden guns for training, first spread up the field and then talk about other things, everything starts from actual combat and pays close attention to training."

Someone else heard something else in my words and raised their own doubts.

"The war of the future? Does Your Highness think that there will be another war? ”

"Well, you've probably heard that a new round of eternal holy war is about to begin. On Orlan's side, the water elemental and the sea clan are only skirmishes, and it is not just where they are not peaceful. ”

When it came to the Eternal Holy War, everyone's faces immediately became very bad, expanding the army is one thing, fighting a war is another, it's only been a few days of peace, how can you come again.

"I just got the confidential information not long ago, the black winged people and the wind elemental gods in the south have got a piece of it, and their cloud fleet is heading west, looting passing towns along the way, and the capitals of two medium-sized kingdoms have also been damaged. And the ...... to the north "

When it comes to the north, sure enough, everyone has lifted their spirits, after all, this is the northern end of the Anthropocene realm, and when it comes to their own lives, people must be more careful.

I sighed helplessly in my heart, sure enough, the people of Lan are full of disasters and difficulties, they only fought back the orc tribe a year ago, and it has only been quiet for a few days, and troublesome things have come again.

“…… To the north, it seems that there is a tribe that has the support of the earth elemental god, and it has suddenly become stronger, that guy has proclaimed himself an orc khan, and they should now annex each other through a civil war, according to the custom, I am afraid that it is only a matter of time before a large army invades south. ”

"That can't be! Ah, Your Highness, I'm not saying you're lying, but it's ......"

"It's devastating! Your Highness, are your sources confirmed? ”

"Your Highness, is it the orc tribe, the Orcs of the Highlands or the Orcs of the Plains? Did the other countries of the North get the news? ”

Sure enough, the bombshell was dropped, and the entire conference room immediately became noisy.

The orcs in the north are divided into two regions, the highland orcs are distributed along the Orison Mountains, where the terrain is complex, where more than seventy percent of the orcs settle, and the Orcs in the Hulan Plain area, although they are less numerous, are more dense and actually more harmful.

If it is the orc tribe on the other side of the highlands, there are at least a few countries as barriers, but if it is the orcs of the plains, Donglan has a section of the border line that borders them, and due to historical reasons, that section of the border for dozens of kilometers has never been calm.

Of course. That's pretty good. If it's the border of the country of Arashi. The two sides are directly bordered by a single piece, and the pressure is even greater, and the rise of the Suya Kingdom, a highland country with barbarian blood in the past two hundred years, together with the neighboring Kingdom of Rodnam, has forcibly cut the orc Great Plains in half, which has indeed relieved the pressure.

Incidentally, both of these countries are the only two of the Seven Far North Kingdoms to have good relations with the Duchy of Donglan, except for the common reason that they are considered "barbarian states". Their land is a newly opened alien land, and they do not occupy the territory of the original Lan country, and there is no tangled historical grudge, which is the fundamental reason for the good relationship.

As for the other countries in the Seven Kingdoms of the Northlands, many of them are pioneer lords from the south, and they are still relatives of the seventeen kingdoms that have been destroyed, how can the relationship be good...... At least as a last resort, the merchants would not be willing to come to this "barbarian land".

"The three northern kingdoms are dominated by the aborigines of the Northland (among them, there is also an ancient country of Fengqi, the kingdom of Rhodinan is on both sides, and its political stance is slightly inclined to the north. But the royal family is from the south)", "The four southern kingdoms (among them, the kingdom of Sluwell is a split product of the kingdom of Arashi, and they emphasize that they are the orthodox kingdom of Arashi)". Add to that a bunch of small self-governing lands that aren't even states, and it's the chaos of the Northlands.

The entire Northland is regarded as a barbarian by the great powers of the human race, and there are still contradictions between the countries of the Northland, making this bitter cold land a real human frontier and a place of exile, at least those so-called autonomous places, many of which are "free places" composed of robbers and wanted criminals

“…… The information was actually given by the elven kingdom, it should still be credible, it is said that most of the human kingdoms have been reported, it is the highland orcs, it seems to be called the blood axe tribe. ”

"Phew, those long-eared people wish we were fighting to the death with the beast barbarians, but we were excluded as always."

"Ha, Sloowell is going to be unlucky, that bastard betrayer deserves it."

"The same is true of the Principality of Kasumi, the Blood Axe Tribe doesn't seem to be far from them. But I'm afraid of the kingdom of Rodnan. ”

There was a lot of discussion below, and at this point, the meeting had reached the time to draw its final conclusion.

"Don't be too happy, although we won't bear the brunt of it, the possibility of being involved is not low, and once the border is breached, we will also have to face the orc tribe, and we must be prepared for actual combat standards. So, I have a proposal to restart the glory of our past history this year – Winter Hunt! ”——

The conference room was still busy, but I was resting on the edge of the hallway.

Even though it was nightfall, the square not far away was still noisy, the bonfire had been lit, but the vulgar and lively music made me smile from the bottom of my heart, and I saw the bone dragons twisting their waists and dancing strangely, and it seemed that they were planning to make trouble all night.

The work that can be arranged has been arranged, and I don't have to worry about the rest, the arrangements for the conscription and the return day celebration are very smooth, and I don't have to worry about the special person in charge, and the only point of controversy is still the winter hunt that I proposed the most.

Only the Northlanders know that the winter beasts and the summer beasts are completely different concepts, and the beasts driven crazy by hunger are bloodthirsty and crazy, and they are not afraid of any enemy.

If you are hungry and crazy, you can dig a moat and they can be filled with flesh and blood, and mutated monsters and super monsters in the snowy mountains are not uncommon, and once they run away, they are definitely extremely terrifying enemies.

Spring and autumn in the Northland are very short, spring, summer and autumn add up to just over five months, and after more than 30 days, the ice-covered Northland ice season will come again.

If a herd of beasts forms a tide of beasts, it is also helpless to move the inhabitants of small villages and towns to large towns, after all, not everything can be taken with them, and villagers who return to their hometowns in the spring of the next year will inevitably see their homes full of devastation.

The great migration is often extremely dangerous, if you happen to encounter a herd of beasts that set off in advance in the wild, and the beasts that set off alone, I am afraid that it will be delivered to your door.

However, it is even more unrealistic for villagers to give up their homes, livestock, and farmland from the beginning, and they will not be able to survive if they give up once a year, and the living space around the big towns is limited, and the food supply is even more limited.

Obviously, the above countermeasures are both passive and problematic, and the winter hunt I proposed can not only obtain a large amount of meat and animal specialties, but also reduce the pressure on the town by actively using mobile forces to meet the herd, and greatly boost the morale of the people and the army, which has many benefits.

Of course. The people also know these benefits. But it has not been implemented. But it is still a fundamental question of strength.

Fortifications in towns against herds that can only fight a war of attrition and against bloodthirsty and cunning herds in the field are two different concepts entirely, and the reason why my proposal was opposed by everyone was because of their knowledge and lack of confidence in the country's combat power.

"How can it be considered a strong army without actual combat testing, how can crazy orcs be easier to deal with than brainless beasts. Even if you are worried about those young men, but the new recruits have veterans who can grow up quickly with actual combat experience. A legion that has never seen blood, no matter how well-equipped, can only be regarded as a security guard. ”

I didn't argue with them. After all, there is no basis for words, and if you want to move them in the end, it still depends on the strength, anyway, the army is already in my hands, so I'll prepare first.

By the way, my current identity is embarrassing, after all, I am the prince of Arashi no Country, although the royal family of this country claims to be my descendants, and it has also been recognized by the world, so. Legally, I should really be a member of this royal family. But it stands to reason that I should be regarded as His Majesty who has abdicated, but I have neither served as a king nor died, so I became the emperor directly?

This relationship is like a mess, and I'm afraid that even the most powerful heraldic experts (who specialize in the study of noble blood and family coats) will not be able to sort out this mess.

And I am now in charge of the army, but I am in charge of it as Princess Renee's guardian knight.

Yes, the Guardian Knight is not a military knight, after all, not long ago, in order to use the Roland Holy Sword to prove my identity, I could only ask Renee to help seal a verbal knight, but she was good, and she gave me a guardian knight directly at the gate of Diffende.

"This is about to enter the city, so it's time to find the Senate to determine your title and fiefdom, anyway, there are many precedents for my brother and father to serve as a single princess guardian knight, and Brother Roland is also like my eldest brother, so let's make do with the guardian knight."

When she said this, Renee's little face flushed, and she was obviously a little embarrassed.

But the identity of this guardian knight is indeed very convenient, and dealing with the incident as Renee's royal agent avoids a lot of embarrassment, I thought it was a good note at the time, and praised Renee twice.

"The adaptability is good, the little girl is still very clever, well, this is like my children and grandchildren."

It was obviously a compliment from the bottom of my heart, but I don't know why I said this, and immediately Kelly and Renee's faces darkened, and some people in the undead army behind laughed.

Well, to get back to the point, at least the identity of Renee's agent gave me, who has no official position, a little more confidence when I convened an executive meeting.

Actually, there are a lot of things that are simply not convenient to talk about in the meeting, but I have already started to work on them.

"Now that the Roland Holy Sword, which is a symbol of royal power, has reappeared, Donglan should also be able to talk about orthodoxy and merger with those small countries that have split up the Arashi Country. There is also the Ice Nightmare Altar in the snowy mountain, I don't know how many new Ice Nights have accumulated in the Dao for more than three hundred years, and it is time to produce a real Aurora Knight. These two things are really only possible if I go there myself. ”

There is one more trouble, at this time I miss Eliza infinitely, if she is there, I can rest assured that I can be a shopkeeper...... Why don't you take the time to talk to her?

[System Prompt: Your death has broken through the sky...... Ahem, I really didn't come out this time to vomit your own death, but I have a daily quest to accept. 】

[Ding, daily task: Today's unlucky bastard, please punish at least three villains who have committed evil deeds, and reward 1-100 fate points according to the identity of the punishment object, with no upper limit. But if you don't complete the direct deduction of 1000 points - you are not afraid of deducting 1000 points because you have more destiny points recently, so you don't have to do your daily life? If you still fail this time, you will be deducted 10,000 points directly if you fail next time. 】

When I saw this daily task, I was stunned for a moment.

In the past, it was simple to find a criminal to punish a villain, but to find a criminal directly in prison, but due to the celebration of the return day, the amnesty decree was just issued, so go there to find a criminal.

If you go to find it now, the gods of that place of innocence will be like a warning in your ears, and even the most frantic villains will be afraid of the gods, so let's restrain them for a while.

"It seems that I can only admit that I am unlucky, and the system of the pit father must see that I am not happy and want to rectify me, a thousand points is a thousand points, but tomorrow's ten thousand points are really careful...... Burst! ”

A scene in front of me. Let me squirt the tea straight out. It made me rub my eyes even more. I wonder if I'm hallucinating.

It was a group of men running, and there were many familiar figures among them, and the first to take the lead was the tall and mighty Minotaur.

"Returning to nature and walking with the wind is the true color of our minotaurs, my real name doesn't matter, please call me the son of the wind!" Come on. Friends, please join this wonderful gallop against the wind. ”

Not surprisingly, there were quite a few guards chasing after the bastards, and they were wielding a mess of clothes and pants in addition to sticks.

"My lord, at least put on your panties, panties, panties!" The call of the City Watch echoed through the streets, and my face turned green in an instant.

"Wind ...... Son of the Wind, you're big! Are you a few minotaurs in the whole of Diefender because this is the Underground World? From the beginning, it was a goof, and the Supreme Judge led the team to run naked. You tell the judges of the Church of the Law to behave tomorrow. I thought you could hold it for a few days, and now you can't stand it? Woe to the family! ”

So, without hesitation, I picked up the Silver Avenger.

"I understand, it turns out that the system is not looking at me unpleasantly, but watching that stupid cow unhappy! Okay, I'll clean up the portal today. ”

[Ding, I guessed well, but there was no prize. The system continues to prompt, think about it, what is the task for Lu requires at least three people to go up to the cap. Yes, those local criminals are indeed going to have to rein in for a while because of the City of Miracle Innocence, but have you forgotten that there is also a group of strange people who are the best at guessing the boundaries of the law and dancing. 】

"Do you want to be the envy of everyone in the fireworks master? Do you want to comprehend the mysteries of the festival from the underworld? Safe and reliable, dazzling, safe brand fireworks sale, you deserve it! ”

Well, the thugs who sell dangerous goods and fakes have appeared.

"Hmph, it's time for us to understand the grudge, I want to avenge my lover Thirty-Eight!" Standing against the wall with a bow is a half-dragon hunter with a masterful demeanor.

"Ha, don't think that I will be afraid of you when you advance to the legend, a real hunter will definitely not be afraid of the strength of his prey, that will only make us happier. Hmph, your weakness has long been exposed in my eyes, and the next moment, it will be your death. "This is an old dwarf hunter, and although he looks ordinary, his silver shotgun is clearly not ordinary.

On the stall on the side, a goblin was shouting hard.

"The grievances and hatreds of thirty years ago are understood overnight, and the peerless war is about to be staged. The Kabbalah gambling game is accepting all kinds of bets, betting on the legendary half-dragon to win, the next to two, betting on the ace shooter to win, the next to three, betting on both sides to the end, the next to ten, betting on both sides to laugh and hate, the next to lose 100......"

Okay, there are gambling and private brawls, and when I hear this, I already know what I should do, and I have to hurry up and clean up before the face of the underground world and the Church of the Law is thrown into the gutter by this group of bastards.

"Well, can I bet that the duel was terminated for a special reason?"

"Of course you can, this odds are seven to one, but the ending of a smile and a grudge is not included." As soon as the triumphant Kabbalah looked up and saw me, his smile immediately turned into a cry.

"You...... Aren't you supposed to be in a meeting? ”

I threw a bag of gold coins down and smashed it on his head.

"Put it away for me, and when I'm done with these bastards, I'll ask you for a bonus!"

Well, after that came the glad night of repression, and after running out of breath, I immediately made the rebuilding of the chengguan army a top priority.

In the end, not to mention that the daily tasks were completed as scheduled, and more than 700 points were accumulated.

Of course, the Supreme Bishop's streaking is destined to become a stain on the Church of the Law, but in the history of the future, this black history is recorded in this way.

"During the celebration of the return day in 1897, because he was sincerely happy for the knights who had returned to his hometown, Snowhoof, who was the supreme bishop at the time, drank too much during the celebration and then lost his morality, and although he did not violate the law, he punished himself by hanging himself upside down on the highest flagpole in the palace for three days and three nights."

And the world lamented his noble character of upholding the law and being strict with himself, and called him a 'just upside-down hanging man', hanging upside down on the flagpole, and it has also become the Taoist practice of every judge when he is confused. To commemorate this episode, it has become a traditional custom to return to the wind and run, and of course, most of the participants will still wear a pair of underwear. (To be continued......)
