When the three Hassans who were flogged wanted to leave Alsace Town, they were stopped by Ouyang Yu's faction, and two days later, they were brought to Ouyang Yu after their injuries had healed.

"I've seen adults. ”

Hassan and the others wanted to kneel, but Ouyang Yu stopped them.

"If you three are injured, don't kneel, stand and talk. ”

"Yes, thank you, sir. ”

The three of Hassan stood honestly in front of Ouyang Yu, not daring to make a slight move, compared with their attitudes a few days ago.

"Hassan. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

"I heard you're a hunter. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

"Have you ever thought about joining the army? ”

Hassan has a profound influence on Ouyang Yu's army, strict discipline and well-trained, joining such an army can be said to be every man's dream, but Hassan, who is already in his forties and has a family and a wife and daughter to support, is not very keen on joining Ouyang Yu's army.

"My lord, I'm just a hunter, and I'm very old, my lord, your army shouldn't be inferior to an old man like me. ”

The commoners and serfs of this world live a relatively hard life, and Hassan already has a lot of gray hair on his head in his forties, and he looks like he is almost fifty.

Ouyang Yu got up from the chair and sat down for himself with a cup of tea and said: "It doesn't matter how old you are, it is your hunter's skills that I fancie, I hope you can join my army, and call all your knowledge related to forest survival and tracking to my soldiers, don't worry, after you join my army, you will only train recruits in the rear, and you will not be allowed to fight." ”

Ouyang Yu said so, and Hassan could only agree.

"All are willing to obey your commands. ”

After the three of Hassan left, Ouyang Yu called Mayor Bradley again, and Ouyang Yu said: "You send people to each village and tell each village that I need each village to send thirty young people between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six to join my army, and the treatment will be according to the treatment of the local garrison, and at the same time, each village will be tax-free for three years, starting this year." ”

"Ah, tax exemption for three years, my lord, how can we complete the tax task required by the principality?" Mayor Bradley was surprised by Ouyang Yu's order.

Whether it is a war or the construction of a country, money is needed, and all this money is obtained through taxes, Ouyang Yu needs to pay half of the taxes received from the territory to the treasury of the principality every year, and the Principality will send professional financial personnel to each territory to account for so as not to evade taxes by the nobles with fiefdoms, if a nobleman has not paid taxes for three consecutive years or has not paid enough, then the principality will take back the territory of that nobleman, so Mayor Bradley will be so surprised.

Ouyang Yu waved his hand and said indifferently: "Isn't it just the more than 1,000 silver coins every year, it's just a little bit of meaning to me, you can do it according to my instructions." ”

"Yes. ”

Mayor Bradley left the room after no more words.

In the next few days, Ouyang Yu locked herself in the room and made a development plan for the territory, and the plan she made was as follows, first of all, the tax was reduced, the agricultural tax of seventy percent was too high for the serfs, and once the grain production was a little less, she would be hungry, so she planned to reduce the agricultural tax to fifty percent first, and if it was a famine year, it could be further reduced according to the situation.

The second is to reduce the commercial tax, the commercial tax in Alsace town is as high as 30 percent, which has caused the price of goods to be too high, the common people want to buy but have no money in their pockets to afford it, and the merchants want to sell but sell it, the reduction of the commercial tax, the price of goods will also be reduced, so that those who want to buy can afford it, and those who want to sell can sell it.

Third, build a factory, combine the forest resources in the territory to recruit workers to produce the relevant parts of the magic crystal rifle, such as the butt and other wooden accessories, with her relationship with Lieutenant General Benjamin will not worry about no business, the people in the territory have money and will stimulate the circulation of goods, the increase in commodity transactions will increase the tax revenue, thus forming a virtuous circle, and then her territory will become better and better.

After formulating the plan, Ouyang Yu convened a meeting of all the officials, explained his plan in detail, and also released words, this plan is the assessment of the officials, if anyone does not do well, they will be laid off, there are many people who want to be officials, do not worry about finding the right person to come, a group of officials took over their respective tasks with sad faces, after having seen Ouyang Yu's army, no one dared to disobey her words, and all of them obediently carried out, including Zorf.

The arrest a few days ago touched Zolf the most, and after the arrest was completed, he learned from Ouyang Yu's mouth that she had a strong army of more than 2,000 well-trained people, and after knowing the truth of the matter, Zolf smiled bitterly, thinking that he thought that he could pinch and rub Ouyang Yu at any time, but afterwards he was glad in his heart, he did not come hard when Ouyang Yu first came, otherwise there would be one more person who was hanged and dried, but in Zolf's heart, Ouyang Yu's pursuit of not only did not decrease, but also became a lot stronger, if he could marry Ouyang Yu, it would be a real less struggle for thirty years, so he worked very hard to do what Ouyang Yu explained to him, hoping to gain her favor.

To establish a factory, Ouyang Yu had to leave the territory and go to the big city to buy equipment, but before she could leave, several coalition soldiers came to Alsace Town, bringing orders from Lieutenant General Benjamin.

During this period of time, all the attacks launched by the imperial army in the Duchy of Lucerne were beaten back, Ouyang Yu's trench warfare played a huge role, and the machine gun and barbed wire tactics made the imperial army lose its troops and lose its generals, and the imperial army that could not attack for a long time had no choice but to stop the attack.

The top brass of the Imperial Army judged that if the offensive continued, it would not be impossible to break through the positions of the coalition forces, but the price was too heavy for the Imperial Army to bear, so they adjusted the strategic center, leaving a small number of troops to contain the coalition forces of the Duchy of Luxon, and mobilized heavy troops to attack the neighboring country of the Duchy of Luxonne, which is also its suzerain, the Kingdom of Gaul.

The Fifth Front of the Imperial Army in the Kingdom of Gaul was greatly strengthened by the main reinforcements of the Ninth Front of the Duchy of Lucerne, and after several large-scale major battles, the coalition forces on the side of the Kingdom of Gaul suffered heavy losses and had to ask for help from the surrounding coalition forces.

Lieutenant General Benjamin thought about it after receiving the news of the request for help, and decided to send a reinforcement of 20,000 people, and at the same time let Ouyang Yu also lead her army south to reinforce together, this decision was made because although the main force of the Ninth Front Army of the Imperial Army has been withdrawn, the coalition forces of the Principality of Lucerne cannot launch a counteroffensive, don't look at the losses of the Imperial Army that fought some time ago, it is because there are perfect fortifications, if you leave the fortifications and the Imperial Army to fight in the field, the coalition forces of the Principality of Luxon are still not the opponent of the Imperial Army.

Reinforcements were to set off south five days later, and Lieutenant General Benjamin's order to Ouyang Yu was to lead the entire army to converge in the Duchy's border city of Finistair in ten days.

After reading the order, Ouyang Yu said to the soldiers: "Please tell the general that my department will arrive on time." ”

After sending off the soldiers of the coalition forces, Ouyang Yu immediately issued a mobilization order, and the more than 2,000 soldiers under her command immediately began to prepare nervously before departure, and the entire territory was also shrouded in a shadow of war.

In the barracks, Ouyang Yu looked at Zolf in front of him in surprise, "You said you want to follow me to the battlefield, how can you have such an idea?"

Zolf replied with a serious face: "My lord, my idea is very simple, that is, to protect you, my lord. ”

"Hah, protect me? When I go to the battlefield, I only command the battle in the rear, and I won't go to the front, so I don't need you to protect me. ”

"My lord, please agree, although I and Master are not very good at fighting, there are some things that are inconvenient for you to do, we are the most suitable. ”

"Hmm. Zolf's words Ouyang Yu felt that it made sense, the mercenaries of the Timberwolves mercenary group were really not good at fighting, but they were really good at petty theft, chickens and dogs, and the soldiers recruited by the system were not good, maybe they were really useful.

"Okay then, I'll give it, but ......!" Ouyang Yu raised his voice, "All of you must completely obey my orders, if you dare to bargain or disobey the yang, I will enforce battlefield discipline!"

There is only one discipline on the battlefield, and that is to shoot, and I believe that no one dares to joke with their lives.

After a day of preparation, Ouyang Yu left a company to garrison the territory, and all 2,200 people drove towards the border city of Phoenixe in more than 100 trucks.

Although they arrived at their destination, Ouyang Yu's army did not enter the city, but camped outside the city of Phoenixe, the twenty-four tanks of the tank company were protected in the very middle, and they were all wrapped in canvas to avoid being seen by others, and now was not the time for the tanks in Ouyang Yu's hands to appear publicly.

After resting for two days, the 20,000 reinforcements sent by the Principality of Luxon Theater arrived before they arrived, and the commander was Brigadier General Louis, who was in his early forties this year, with a steady fighting style, and was the best at defensive warfare, his relationship with Ouyang Yu was not bad, after all, after Lieutenant General Benjamin received Ouyang Yu's kickback, some of them would flow into the pockets of other generals of the coalition army, and Brigadier General Yis, as a beneficiary, naturally had a good relationship with Ouyang Yu, the gold owner, and the two chatted very happily after meeting, especially after Ouyang Yu took out the meeting gift, Brigadier General Yisi smiled even more happily。

"Your Excellency, General, this is a little meaning, please laugh. "Thirty MP-18 submachine guns were placed in front of Brigadier General Yiss. "I see that your guards are still equipped with ordinary rifles, which is a loss of your identity, and I hope these submachine guns can make your guards a little more powerful. ”

"Hahaha, let Miss Ouyang break the bank, please take care of Miss Ouyang in the future. ”

After being humble for a while, Brigadier General Louis accepted Ouyang Yu's gift.
