Chapter 0975 - Cutting Soldiers, Building a School, and Testing Guns

Magic Mountain continued: "My lords, I propose that the Duke and Marquis of Quells, the family must not have more than two hundred personal guards and one hundred war horses. For the rest of the titles, there shall not be more than one hundred-man team and fifty horses. No more than twenty mercenary guards and ten war horses shall be allowed to be used by wealthy merchants and captains in the city. Ladies and gentlemen, who has any objections?"

None of the hundreds of nobles and wealthy merchants answered.

Moshan said: "Since you adults have no objections, then carry it out." Please ask the royal family and the lords to reduce the family guards and war horses within three days, and ...... after three days The whole city will be registered......"

The Quells nobles looked at each other as they heard about the population registration for the first time.

Missandei took a step forward: "My lords, in three days, King Horn and the Immortal Witch, Queen Daenerys, and the scholars and priests, everyone will form a team and divide the city into eight districts, each of which will have five hundred soldiers. A general, a scholar, a priest for population registration. Whether it is an outsider or a local, whether it is a nobleman or a mercenary, a servant, his family, relatives, friends, parents, occupation, personality, height, weight, skills, occupation, all have to be registered in detail and then summarized to the royal family in order to better manage the population of Quells. ”

The uneasiness spread among the nobility as if it were a contagious disease, and in this way, the nobility had no secrets. The relationship between the nobility and the nobility is also exposed, as the cross-comparison of different accounts reveals this, and if the two sides speak differently, or if the servants of the same family speak differently, many secrets will be revealed.

This feeling is to strip naked on the street......

The aristocrats and wealthy merchants looked at each other, and the resistance began to permeate through eye contact......

The new masked elder stood up from the crowd and said slowly, "May I ask if you want to register the population of Scorpion Tail Fort as well?"

A wizard also stood up from the crowd: "Your Majesty Horn, Your Majesty Gregor, Queen Daenerys, may I ask you to register the wizards of the Immortal Temple as well?"

Daenerys said lightly, "Master, what do you mean?"

"We are God's people. ”

Every human being in the world is a citizen of God. ”

"The Temple of Immortality is a place like no other, ordinary people enter it, and it is easy to lose their souls and then not be able to come out. There is nothing we can do about the space controlled by the witch god, so please forgive your Majesty. ”

Demon Mountain and King Horn exchanged glances, and Demon Mountain said: "Scorpion Tail Castle, Immortal Temple, that is the place where the will of the gods is manifested, and the population will not be registered first. ”

Elder Regret and Immortal Wizard were not very satisfied with Magic Mountain's words, Magic Mountain said that the population would not be registered first, laying the groundwork for future personnel registration, which shows that the new king still wants to grasp the number of Regret Guest and Immortal Wizard.

The Demon Mountain sat high and could see clearly, looking at the expressions of the Elder of the Regretful Guest and the Immortal Witch, he said, "Scorpion Tail Castle and the Immortal Temple, we will record the number of personnel with the consent of your elders, and if your elders refuse, I will also respect it." ”

Regret Elder Ke and Immortal Wizard sat down at this time.

Hundreds of nobles did not stand up to raise objections, and no one had the confidence to regret the guest and the Immortal Temple.

The Regret Guest and the Immortal Temple are also something they can't afford to mess with. In the past, nobles would ask for the protection of the Sorry Guest and the protection of the Temple of Immortality.

It's just that although no one stood up for the nobles who dared to be angry, they began to whisper to each other.

The Magic Mountain glanced at King Horn, who stood up: "Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to announce a new initiative by Quells, the establishment of a school for nobles and a school for commoners, and the teachers of the school will be the great scholars from the old town of Westeros. The whispering meeting suddenly became silent.

"Scholars are cultural teachers of Westeros, who are proficient in architecture, manufacturing, occultism, medicine, animal husbandry, mechanics, planting, mathematics, navigation, astronomy, geography, history, languages, ......"

"Your Majesty, will they shoot arrows on horseback?"

"They can do everything but martial arts. Westeros' unique correspondence is that of ravens cultivated by the Scholars. The natural enemies of ravens flying in the sky are only eagles. The raven is distinguished from the crow in that it is a rare bird of prey, but at the same time loyal to its owner. No matter how many miles away, as long as the raven is not caught by the natural predator eagle, it will definitely deliver the letter to the designated place. ”

"Your Majesty, how does the raven know my address?" asked a nobleman.

"The bachelor will tell it the address. It can communicate with the Bachelors, a secret technique that is unique to the Scholars. ”

"Can the raven be literate, otherwise how would it know so many places? ”

"The Bachelor will train them. The white crows among the ravens, each one can speak. They are responsible for delivering the most urgent and important messages. Not every raven has to learn all the places, but a raven will only send messages from a few places at a fixed time. ”

"Your Majesty, I accept the raven. ”

"Ravens and Bachelors, as well as schools, will be forced, whether you accept it or not. King Horn was the final word.

The nobles booed. They didn't dare to boo the Demon Mountain, but they dared to boo King Horn. The king's position in Quells was not absolute authority, and in the city, the Thirteen Giants, the Tourmaline Brotherhood, the Ancient Spice Guild, the Regret Guest, the Temple of Immortals, these places and the big people who controlled these organizations, had actual power on an equal footing with the king in many matters. The only thing the king had to do was political and executive power, as well as popular support.

The Quells respected the authority of the king as far from the absolute authority of the king in other places, and the actual power was generally in the hands of the Thirteen Giants and others. It's just that after the thirteen giants were killed and twelve people were killed, the organization collapsed, and the power was naturally gone. In addition, after the death of the two commanders and core generals of the Tourmaline Brotherhood, the power was also concentrated and withdrawn to the royal family, and the head of the head of the Ancient Spice Guild was hung on the city wall, the power system and influence of the Ancient Spice Guild also collapsed overnight.

But even so, in the hearts of the Quellsians, there is no absolute reverence for royal power. The king here is more down-to-earth in power, and in many practical decisions, the king only has the right to honor, until the magic mountain comes, Quells is in an unprecedented crisis, facing the threat of being slaughtered, and then, everything changes drastically.

Magic Mountain still has a lot of government provisions to announce, and the most important thing is to implement the 'Klegane banknote', unify the unit of measurement and issue the currency, but he decided to take it one step at a time.

Although Quells's military power has been completely controlled, the implementation of government affairs cannot be rushed, and if the whole city is changed, it will not be worth the loss.

A nobleman stood up and said, "Your Majesty Horn, when will we be able to go out of the city freely and trade freely?"

"After the population registration is completed, you can go out of the city at any time, trade at any time, and as long as you do not break the law, you are absolutely free to do anything, as before. ”

A young nobleman stood up, his eyes shining, his facial features were handsome, his skin was as white as milk, and his hair was blonde and his eyes were blue: "Your Majesty, I heard rumors that you have invented a bow and arrow that can be inserted into your waist......"

Young people are still more martial arts and more interested in new things.

"Yes. "Magic Mountain noticed that it was a teenager who cared about new things and new weapons, and he realized that changing the minds of the Quells people actually started with this young generation.

"Your Majesty, can you have an ornament for us to show?"

"What's your name, boy. ”

"Peart Vera. ”

"Master Pelt, after the meeting is adjourned, you stay. ”

"Your Majesty wants to show me a new bow and arrow?" the young man's face was full of anticipation.

"Yes, I'll show you and give you a try. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The boy's face flushed with excitement.

Half an hour later, the first political meeting held after the Magic Mountain entered the city ended, and the young Marquis Piert Vera remained.

King Horn said, "Your Majesty, I have put the royal palace in order to the east, please move in today with your courtiers and guards." ”

The Magic Mountain is also ready to move into the palace. The royal palace of the Horn royal family is divided into two palaces, east and west, and the magic mountain asked for the palace in the east, and reserved the palace in the west for the royal family of Horn.

The palace to the east is twice the size of the palace to the west, and also occupies the main road to and from the palace.

"Alright, Missandei, you command the soldiers to move our things into the palace on the east side. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

"Asha, Jorah, you are in charge of bringing the Dothraki cavalry battalion into the eastern barracks and assigning them camps and stables. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

"Gray Worm, Misanlo, you are responsible for leading five hundred Unsullied ones, taking over the guards of the palace in the east, and the gates of the palace are all replaced by our Unsullied warriors. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

"Quishi, how long will it be before they get to Quells?"

"Tonight, Your Majesty. Qui Xi said from the shadow of the Magic Mountain. Her voice was very pleased, as if she didn't want to be heard by the people around her, but Moshan didn't hide it.

Who's coming tonight?

Daenerys, Aryane, and Jon knew.

............

Marquis Piert Vera, who was standing beside the Magic Mountain, watched the Magic Mountain issue orders one by one, and all the courtiers and generals received the orders one by one, and there was an illusion of standing beside the gods.

Such a burly and powerful warrior king who is incomparable still has great wisdom in government affairs, both civil and military, which makes him heartbroken.

*

Half an hour later, the Magic Mountain entered his huge palace.

The hall was more than three times larger than the King's Hall in Megar Tower, and the bedroom was almost as large as the royal drawing room in Meggor House, ten times the size of the bedroom in Meggor House. All the carpets, curtains, wall decorations, and reliefs come to life as if they were all new.

In order to welcome the Magic Mountain into the palace, King Horn ordered his servants to prepare everything and replace any items and accessories that looked a little old with new ones.

All kinds of gold and jade ornaments are everywhere, and the curtain hooks are pure gold with amber pendants. The armrests of the huge wooden chair are inlaid with a circle of rubies, and the other tables and beds and chairs are all luxuriously decorated.

There are all the things for daily life, and you only need people to come in, then everything is ready. In this regard, King Horn made careful arrangements to ensure that the magic mountain and his courtiers and generals would not lack any living goods after living in the palace.

Daenerys and Arlene's rooms are also filled with extreme luxury, and each place is full of wealth and glory.

The residences of the generals and the guards are extremely rich, so that as soon as people live in, they just want to enjoy the warmth of glory, and no longer go to the battle of the frontier.

*

In the backyard, there is a martial arts arena for the king.

Magic Mountain took the courtiers and generals to the martial arts arena specially renovated by King Horn and designed according to the wishes of Magic Mountain.

The whole arena is a wide lawn, and a circular horse path can be used for horses to gallop. In the middle of the lawn there are leather men practicing chopping, and in the far reaches of the lawn stand three arrow targets.

There is a door in the wall that connects to the rear barracks of the guards.

"Peet Vera, go get the chair out of my living room. Magic Mountain said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Soon, the large wooden chair of Sandalwood and Jewel in the living room was moved out by Peert Vera. The chair was heavy, and the young marquis's arms were strong enough to move.

The back of this wooden chair is inlaid with a large piece of ice-green jadeite. Jadeite is as big as a disc, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is priceless. But in the royal family of Horn, pearls and jades are ordinary things.

Quells is rich, and the royal family has accumulated wealth for thousands of years.

"Peert Vera, put the chair under the leather man in the middle of the lawn. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

The leather-man target that practices chopping is suspended from a position two meters high. This position is still a little short for the height of the Demon Mountain's giant sword slash. However, most of the enemies that the Magic Mountain fought against were less than two meters tall.

Piert Vera carried the chair under the leather man's target.

"Asha, put a plate armor on this chair. ”

Asha glanced at the soldiers around her, and Jorah Mormont took off her plate armor and handed it to Asha, who put it on her chair.

The Magic Mountain lifted the sleeves of his robe and pulled out the world's first short-handled musket from his waist, the first new bow and arrow made by Duke Gendry and Master Tob Mott after his arrival, according to the drawings and written instructions of the Magic Mountainβ€”no wooden shaft or bow on his back.

Inside the gunpowder gun, of course, there are gunpowder and iron bullets.

The musket was called the assault musket in ancient China in the previous life of the Magic Mountain. In the Song Dynasty, some people used bamboo barrels to make gun bodies, filled with gunpowder and projectiles, and made sudden muskets. It was the earliest tubular firing weapon in the Chinese civilization that could fire bullets. In the Yuan Dynasty of China, the barrel of the bamboo tube was replaced with a pig iron tube, and the ratio of gunpowder was adjusted, and the power, range, and service life of the projectile were greatly increased.

This short-handled powder gun in Magic Mountain has passed the initial grassroots era - the bamboo barrel gun body, and it uses good steel in one step.

This is a handmade powder gun.

For Master Tob Mott, as long as he gives a rough outline of the drawings, explains the requirements, and names the key points, he can make weapons that he has never seen before.

In front of everyone's eyes, Moshan raised his hand and pulled the trigger on the plate armor on the chair.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, the plate armor made a click, which was pierced by the iron pellet, the bullet was not weakened, and with a click, it pierced through the back of the chair, and a hole was pierced in the round jade inlaid on the back of the chair, and there was a crisp sound, and the jade cracked, and the lines spread on all sides and shattered.
