123: Return to the imperial capital
In the castle, Aslan specially arranged an office for himself.
The office was located in one of the highest towers of the castle, which was so good that he named it his office!
Aslan was sitting behind a table, and he was now frowning, looking at a hide in front of him.
And Jace and the Michelo butler were on the side, and the others were not eligible to be here, because this time it was a completely strategic and development meeting, and military personnel were not allowed to participate.
Today's Aslan pays the most attention to the division of labor between military and government, soldiers are soldiers, and they must not meddle in politics, and administrative personnel are administrative personnel, and they are absolutely allowed to meddle in politics.
Originally, only five people were eligible for this kind of meeting.
Thiago was sent to Welsh City to start trading and would not return for a while.
Chang Yun returned to Feiyun City, and while rebuilding Feiyun City, he still began to build roads, leading directly to Feitian City, and the only bulldozer was driven over.
The effect of opening the road is very good, it is said that the road will be able to lead to Feitian City in another week, but it is a little troublesome for Aslan to ask for a layer of asphalt on it, and it is estimated that it will take a month.
The main reason is that the asphalt is difficult to transport, and it is in the Wanlv Forest, and in the end, Aslan can only let the beasts in the Wanlv Forest transport the asphalt out, and at the same time include the beasts of the Wanlv Forest in the trading partners of Feitian City, although many people are puzzled, but the people who are absolutely convinced by the city lord do not question him.
After all, there are not only dwarves in the city, but also elves, and it is normal for orcs to join.
It is worth mentioning that after the development of the past few months, the Big G tribe of the Wanlv Forest now has more than 200 hard laborers, more than 50 orc infantrymen, and more than 20 troll headhunters, becoming a veritable tribe.
It's just that this population can only be called small tribes.
Gus returned to the town of Pitantin and rebuilt it on the basis of the town of Pitantin and named the city of Tartin, mainly for the purpose of building as a trading town, hoping to become a trading city in the future.
So these two people were removed, and only Michelo and Jace were left to be able to attend the meeting.
"At this time, really. Aslan sighed, and he put down the piece of paper in his hand.
The hides are written in the script commonly used on the continent.
Dear lords and nobles, on the 28th of July in the year 379 of the Imperial White Fortune calendar, a number of cities in Arizona and Walda officially launched a large-scale rebellion at the instigation of the rebels, led by Duke Macay Mister of Arizona. The Baekje Emperor was furious and decided to launch a crusade order, ordering the lords of various places to bring their own troops and gather in the imperial capital before August 20 to fight against the rebels with the imperial army.
August 2nd Baekje the Great's Message!
"Arizona and Walda are in rebellion!" Aslan muttered to himself.
These two states are the two largest states of the White Luck Empire, and they are even more densely populated, and they have always been the most important of the empire, and these two states are much larger than the six states around Andhra Prefecture combined, and these two states rebelled, but they slapped the face of the Baekje Emperor
"This is the crusade order launched by the emperor, today is the sixth, should we start preparing the army. The Michelo butler said worriedly.
Although Aslan knew from Chang Yun that there would be a big change in the empire before, why did the letter write about the Duke of Macahero Mister? Could it be that there are still many hidden forces in the empire? And this is too fast.
Aslan looked at what was written on the animal skin again, and he shook his head helplessly, although he didn't want to send troops now, but if the rebellion was over, the emperor would have trouble with them.
"Grandpa Michelo, how many people are in our army?" Aslan asked.
"Report to the city lord, our army has been expanded several times, and now there is a battalion of swordsmen. Two musket companies, a cavalry platoon. Michelo replied after a moment's thought.
As for those construction corps, most of the time they are responsible for farming and construction, and when they are on duty, they are the defending army, which has expanded to four battalions, but now the territory of Feitian City is larger, three cities and one port, and two battalions of troops are needed to garrison the army alone, otherwise the construction corps would not have expanded so quickly.
"Alright, arrange for the musket company to stay, and the swordsman battalion and cavalry platoon to prepare for the battle. Aslan commanded.
"Yes!" Michelo said with a little puzzlement: "There are more than a hundred people in the City Lord's musket company now, and they are the main force of our Flying Army, don't we bring them over?"
Aslan shook his head, "You said what would they do if they let the others know that we had such a powerful weapon." ”
"But, haven't we used it a few times before?" said Michelo.
"We've used it before, but in this era, as long as they don't see it with their own eyes, they won't understand the power of our weapons, so we still cover it up. Aslan said that in the age of cold weapons, even if they heard the description of their own weapons, they could not imagine what the musket would look like.
Although it is not very effective against intermediate classes, it is a big killer weapon for elementary classes, and once it is opened on a large scale, maybe the existing war will change, which is what Aslan does not want to fly.
"But with the little ......army we have brought," Michelo said, with a bit of a slurrel.
"You're saying we're going to bring some troops with us, it's useless, aren't you? Let me tell you, the empire has its own imperial army, and we, the private soldiers of the lords and nobles, go just to support the façade, even if we get some great merit, do you think it will catch us. So this time, we just need to ensure that our soldiers don't sacrifice senselessly, and keep a low profile!" Aslan actually just wants to develop well in this place, and now that his strength is out, even if he has a sharp weapon like a musket, it is not enough for those big forces to stuff their teeth.
"Understood! ”
"Then young master, when are you going to leave? The Michelo butler asked.
"By the way, Lord Castle, don't you ask some elves for help?" Jace saw more clearly than Michelo, he knew very well that Gru and the ten wood elves had come from the Endless World, and they would definitely obey Aslan's orders.
Aslan shook his head: "This kind of dog-eat-dog thing, the wind elves will definitely not help, as for the Gru and them, let them maintain their noble status as high elves." ”
Jace blinked and didn't ask any more, while Michelo looked at Jace and Aslan thoughtfully.
He always had a feeling that there was a lot between Aslan and Jace that he didn't know.
However, he did not have any dissatisfaction, but was extremely pleased, especially after seeing Aslan's military and political separation, he supported Aslan even more.
This alone does not know how many unnecessary 'incidents' can be reduced in the future.
Now Michelo's only worry is whether the people of the Sara family will embarrass him when he returns to the imperial capital this time.
