Chapter 54: Under the Imperial Council

"I intend to mobilize the First Legion to garrison Jefengtonburg. ”

Ma Shen picked up a chess piece representing the First Legion and placed it on a small city-state east of Meereen.

The city-state had recently joined the Stormwind Kingdom.

Well, though forced, this city-state belonged to an independent city-state not long ago, and perhaps the ruler of Jerwindon was still panicking at the beginning of a powerful nation in the vicinity, or perhaps at that time he was preparing to offer gifts to the kingdom of Stormwind.

It's a pity that everything is over now, don't worry, don't be afraid, the rulers of the small city-states who rebel are in the wilderness, this is the sorrow of the weak.

There is no way, the land resources are limited, Ma Shen can't let the established kingdom only have three lonely cities, the new kingdom needs more land and resources, and these small city-states around Slave Bay, without backing and not much resistance, are the best prey.

As the saying goes, the Kingdom of Stormwind inherited the legacy of the ancient Giscali Empire thousands of years ago, so since ancient times, these small city-states within the range of Slave Bay have been the land of the Kingdom of Stormwind.

It's not that no one protests, it's just that they have only two choices, one is to submit and the other is to perish.

These thoughts flashed in Ma Shen's heart, and they disappeared directly, and he didn't have time to carry out so much nostalgia for the past.

Ma Shen picked up the second soldier statue and placed it directly on top of another city: "The Third Legion is stationed in the city of Moza and at the same time suppresses the rebels in the city. ”

These two cities are like the two pincers of a crab, firmly protecting the body of the Storm Kingdom, if the enemy from the prairie does not want to be ** flowered, they can only capture one of them.

At present, the kingdom of Stormwind, which has a large number of small city-states, has depth and a place where it can be strategically deployed, and when the dogs tossed by the Dothraki are tossed by mercenaries and want to run in, they will experience what it means to have no return, and what it is called easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down.

"Regarding the transfer of the two legions, I hope that the adults can cooperate closely, Lord Chelsea is responsible for the equipment and equipment of the two legions, Lord Mulier is responsible for raising food and grass, and Lord Luo Kun is responsible for the allocation of funds in the treasury, is there a problem?"

"As you wish, Your Majesty. The Minister of Civil Affairs, Mullier, and the Minister of National Revenue, Luo Kun, sat in their seats and bent down slightly.

"Lord Chelsea?" Because he didn't hear the reply of the craftsman minister Chelsea, Ma Shen turned his head a little strangely, only to see that the master craftsman with the best craftsmanship in the country was actually wandering into the world, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Uh. Reminded by the person next to him, Chelsea, the Minister of Craftsmen, finally came to his senses, "As you wish, Your Majesty." “

Ma Shen shook his head helplessly, this craftsman minister may be a little old, and he will wander out of the world from time to time, but fortunately, the work efficiency is good, and almost all the blacksmiths with good craftsmanship in the country are his apprentices: "Then please." ”

"Haha, I'll make those bunnies work overtime. Cessier grinned in two rows of teeth, and her old cheeks smiled like flowers.

"I have one more thing here, Your Majesty. Luo Kun pulled out a letter wrapped in gold wire from his wide cuffs, "Today the Iron Vault has sent messengers to express their greetings to you, this is their letter, and they also want to ask if you need to deposit the property in the Iron Vault, and they will pay you interest on excellent terms. ”

Queen Cersei asks for a loan from the Iron Vault, and the Night's Watch also wants to borrow money from the Iron Vault, and only I save money, that's the difference.

Thinking of the dying Lord of Westeros, Ma Shen was in a good mood to take the noble-looking letter, and then opened it in half like a normal letter.

"They say that as long as we put the money in the iron vault, we can sit still and wait for the money to make money, what do you think?" Ma Shen shook the soft letter paper in his hand, in fact, he had already made a decision in his heart about this matter, anyone who can deposit the treasury money in other organizations is a fool, but it is still necessary to develop democracy, and not to appear to be very dictatorial.

"Treasury funds, the most important weapon of the country, cannot be sold to others. Luo Kun, who received the envoy of the Iron Vault during the day, said without hesitation.

"If the Iron Treasury joins the Stormwind Kingdom, you can try it. Alexandre, the Minister of Law, who had been sitting in his position without a word, suddenly said without saltiness.

"There will be a chance. Ma Shen stretched out his finger and flicked the envelope a few times, making a crisp sound of flicking paper, "Then reject them, be tactful, don't offend them too much, just say that we don't plan to deposit the money from the treasury into the iron vault, but we support the citizens of the Stormwind Kingdom to deposit the money in the iron vault." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty"

"So do you have anything else to do?" Ma Shen waited for a few seconds, no one spoke, and the ministers all sat quietly in their positions, indicating that there was nothing major to report, "If it's okay, I have one last thing here, you adults should know about the outbreak of war on the Westeros continent, that is, the western continent." ”

Ma Shen said as he stood up and walked to the other side of the table, where a map of the Seven Kingdoms was carved.

Since the Kingdom of Stormwind was established in Slave Cove, separated from Westeros by an incomparably vast ocean, most of the people paid attention to the Eastern Continent, except for Luo Kun from Harrenhal, who was full of attention to his hometown, and no one paid attention to what was happening on the Far Western Continent.

Even if the merchants who came to trade in Stormwind Bay knew roughly what was happening on the continent of Westeros, they couldn't take care of their own family's affairs, so how could they have time to pay attention to other places, even the intelligence agencies were no exception, more than 90% of the intelligence agents were on the East Continent.

"Your Majesty is planning?"

"I loved it there. Ma Shen replied casually and said no more, "I hope you will pay more attention to the situation in Westeros in the future, and after the matter of Dzekocao is resolved, we will focus on the Western Continent." ”

Hearing the king's answer, the ministers exchanged a few eye contacts, believing that the king would not mention the strange continent from which the king had come by boat.

The fact is so wonderful, the people on the Westeros continent think that Ma Shen's hometown is in the East Continent, and the people here in the East Continent think that Ma Shen's hometown is on the Westeros continent, and I don't know if there will be conflicts between the people on the two continents in the future.

"Your Majesty. At this time, an attendant walked quickly to Ma Shen's side, and then whispered something in his ear, which made Ma Shen smile on his face.

"Ahem. Looking at the curious eyes of the ministers, Ma Shen coughed a few times, "Okay, my lords, if there is nothing to do, today's meeting will be over, go back and rest early." ”

"Please work together for the rise of the Stormwind Kingdom. ”

"Good night, Your Majesty. The ministers nodded and began to leave one after another, but such a big thing happened today, how can they still be in the mood to sleep, few kingdoms are ready to start a war on the day of the founding of the country, especially in the face of the famous Dothraki people, need to appease the people and the movement of the army, fortunately, due to the dragon and miracles that appeared at the king's coronation ceremony, everyone has great expectations for the kingdom.

"Aren't we just barbarians, but we're a nation blessed by the gods. ”

"Yes, we are a nation blessed by the gods. ”

The ministers were inexplicably confident in the future war.
