At this moment, Caernarfon, the largest fortress in Wales and the capital of the Irish-Welsh United Kingdom, is also celebrating the occasion.

Prior to this, Her Majesty had suppressed the rebellion in Ireland, brutally killing the leader of the rebellion, her nephew, and imprisoning her nephew's mother, her sister. and the public execution of all those involved in the rebellion...... After all this, the queen set foot on Welsh soil again. Suddenly, the offensive and defensive momentum of the whole Wales turned around. An army of 30,000 of the United Kingdom, along with its elven allies (or, rather, slaves), roared across Wales and killed tens of thousands of English troops stationed there. Bodies were hung on both sides of the road as a warning to the world. And it proclaims a fact to the world.

King Arthur is coming.

At this moment, Egil is still dreaming of his spring and autumn dreams, slowly, slowly, slowly and leisurely, towards the occupied city of London that he has delusional in his heart - by the way, all the money and bonds that Egil has earned over the past period of time have been lost. It was really fun when it came to destroying York City. But to restore York City back is a big project.

All kinds of routine buildings, agricultural buildings, stone city walls, and supporting officials, chengguan brigades. Public facilities...... And so on and so forth. Thanks to Egil, there is only one city in the whole of England at this moment. So there is no need to build roads between cities. As a result, Egil barely had some money in his pocket—but at this moment, Egil felt that his army was a little insufficient. And in the British Isles he also had no place to replenish his army.

Later, after using the system and ordering the three cities of Norway to work hard to produce troops - to replenish the lost army in Yorktown, Egil began to inquire about the system.

"Probably...... Well, now Norway has built another batch of light ballista warships. And, according to your design, the loach ship's propeller system was mounted on the light ballista battleship, creating an improved ballista battleship with greater speed and maneuverability, and without using too much wind power...... Moreover, the social division of labor in the scientific institutes, the plate-chain composite armor, had already been studied - and after the acquisition of the English longbow, the study of the longbow was almost over...... It's just that there's a slight problem here. ”

As a result, the system wizard still wants to know and doesn't tell you at all, and you tell you a lot without asking.

Well, in a sense, these things are important.

"What's the problem?" asked Egil.

"That is, the material from which the longbow is made, and the purple shirt grows only in the south, in Spain and Italy, where the Mediterranean climate is made. Before the Purple Shirt Wood trade with the Spanish nations or the Italian city-states, you wouldn't be able to produce a longbowman even if you had researched it - and, by the way, let me tell you something. Among the nations under your rule, choosing an English or Welsh as a longbowman will give you an additional bonus - just like using a battle axe with a Viking. ”

"Okay, I see...... Isn't it an Italian city-state?" Egil thought about it for a moment, and at this moment, Norway had become more commercially developed. All kinds of hides, berries, and pottery from the Nordic forests are all commodities that can be obtained. And the trade treaty or something, when I went on a pilgrimage to Rome before, I had already signed it with Venice, the two small and powerful countries of northern Italy. The merchants wanted people from all over the world to come to their cities to trade, so the trade treaties were signed very smoothly.

Then, all that is left is to order the merchants to import purple shirts, and that's it. After all, the merchant ships that Norwegian merchants sat on were basically provided by Egil. If you go south along the Rhine, you will reach Italy, and if you go south along the Elbe, you will reach the Eastern Roman Empire. It's very convenient to want to trade. And the idea of inland river sovereignty does not seem to have arisen yet. The vast majority of countries have an underdeveloped shipbuilding industry. There won't be anyone charging for navigation along the way. In short, being able to make money -- really, really making money...... Although the lion's share was earned by the damn Italian city-states...... The thought of this tickled in hatred to the root of Egil's teeth.

"Sooner or later, one day will kill you. ”

In this way, the problem of the longbow can be solved--eh? Didn't we say at the beginning that there was a shortage of troops? Why did it suddenly turn to the longbow? Of course, you should ignore it.

"The research institute that studies armor continues to study armor -- I mean, the light chain mail used by horses to increase the defense of horses. And those who study the division of labor in society, let's start studying statutory law now. The kingdom needs a good legal foundation. Egil ordered.

"Well, so be it. After researching the social division of labor, the output of your workshop has increased and it can be upgraded to a mini-workshop. Please note this. ”

"Well, there's nothing to upgrade yet...... By the way, in Oslo, it's better to set up a textile workshop and upgrade it to a textile factory. Egil thought about it for a moment, then said.

"Well, that's good, now it's time to answer your question. Your new recruits, because the light ballista ships have been upgraded and faster, will now be able to cross the entire North Sea in about ten days. ”

"Are you sure it's that fast? If the speed isn't right, the readers will complain. ”

"That kind of thing can be prevaricated by the reason that 'I'm a liberal arts student, so I'm not very sensitive to numbers and everything.' ”

"Forget it, it feels like it's going to be terrible to keep talking. So let's move on to the next topic. ”

"Of course, whatever you want. ”

"Actually, I have a slight premonition. Egil said.

"Oh...... I remember that your caste does not predict the future, and there are no pagan prophets in your retinue. So, the system elf asked such a strange rhetorical question.

"No, no, no—this is what I learned on the battlefield of legends, that is, to judge the course of the war based on some clues or something. Egil said.

"Are you sure that you haven't been in this world for a year since you came to this world, and you already have such high-end skills after less than ten battles?"

"That's right, I've seen it, and I do have a new surname in my surname column that is 'Insight Ahead' Domination +1. Egil replied.

"Cut, such a superlative - I mean, the magic stick skill, you can even get it, well, even if that's it, so what do you want to do?"

"I feel like I have too few soldiers. Egil said bluntly.

"Is it too little? You still have 7,000 troops under your command, a total of 7,000 troops. And all of them are professional troops. Add to that your dwarven allies, a total of nearly 20,000 troops, and you still have more than 25,000 troops at your disposal. Isn't it a dream to sweep away England?!" the system elf said with no idea whether it was bewitching or encouraging.

"But......" Egil sighed softly, and then said, "Anonymous just sent me a message that the Irish-Welsh United Kingdom, with a total of thirty thousand troops, had left the Welsh Forest. Towards London.

"That's right. The system elf is very unrestrained "suddenly realized".

“...... Your sister, okay, now tell me quickly, how can you increase your combat effectiveness as quickly as possible?! The other party easily defeated more than 20,000 rebels in the country, and then crossed the Irish Sea non-stop, and then wiped out more than 15,000 Englishmen, and then there is still the terrifying monster-level commander who has the strength to continue to march. If the ratio of forces is 1 to 1, I think I will die a terrible death. ”

"Cut. The system elf snorted lightly: "I thought that you hadn't suffered any big losses since your debut now, and you already thought that you were invincible all over the world." ”

"When my Domination and Brutality points are full, I think I'll think so. But forget it now. I'm just a guy with dozens of commanding points and a brutal fourteen-star who can barely reach the side of a famous general. Egil said.

"No, I don't think the average person would be as brutal as fourteen stars. Even ordinary tyrants don't have any. The system elf said, "Also, your command point is six stars. Even if it's +1 for night battles, +1 for defensive battles, and +2 for cavalry, that's ten points. Add to that the fact that most battles are fought during the day, and your army is overwhelmingly infantry. So in fact, you can only add seven or eight stars. ”

“...... Will you let me die if I pretend to be a little bit?!Will I die?!Bastard?!" Egir yelled angrily.

"I just look down on you for your villainous look. ”

"Where did the villain get his will?!"

"Where is there no villain to get the will?!"

In the end, just like the countless quarrels between Egil and the system elves, it still ended in Egil's compromise and backing down.

"Alright, now can you tell me how to increase the army quickly?" said Egil with a little weakness.

"If you buy it with bonds, you only need to live for ten years-"

"—Next. ”

"Cut, mercenary. The system elf said a little unwillingly.

"Mercenary, what's that?" Egil was suddenly intrigued, and his instinct told him that what the System Elf was going to say now might be his only chance to survive this crisis......
