Chapter Ninety-Three: Appreciation from the Queen

At this time, the eldest prince Fania was like a mad fighting, he stood up and glared at Empress Christina, without the slightest concern about the current occasion and the identities of both parties.

The news from the West was very irritating to Fania.

The nobles of the Western Realm offered a letter of allegiance, although the second prince Alec did not get the first credit, but after all, he supervised the strategy of the Western Territory, and he would definitely be able to account for a considerable part of the credit.

On the other hand, the southern route and the northern border.

The battle on the southern front against the Tedgar Hills was still stalemate, and General Joshuel launched a second offensive against the Barbarian Legion, but still encountered complete resistance and did not achieve a good result.

Alerts are constantly being sent from the north every day, and the border of the Artshire Union Chen soldiers could invade at any time. The defenders of the northern border were not optimistic about the war, there were too many recruits and supplies were very short.

With both strong opponents pressed on Fania's head, it was not easy to make a sufficient number of achievements.

Now that the pressure on the Westside is gone, Alec and his assembled Westside Legion have become a mobilizable army. Whether it is going north, south, or coming to the imperial capital, Fania feels like a man.

And just when this was the most anxious and angry, there were rumors in the court that "Your Majesty is dead, and the queen is not mourning". How could Fania not be in a hurry, and even want to force his way into the emperor's bedroom.

He has fought for the throne for half his life, and at this critical moment, he must not let the throne pass in front of him!

In the face of the rampaging prince, no one spoke at the meeting. Fania asked what everyone wanted to know, but no one dared to ask except Fania.

Outside the protective shield, the palace guards noticed that the eldest prince was harming the queen, so they put their hands on the hilt of their swords together, and took a step forward with their right feet to protect the queen at any time.

Empress Christina's expression did not change in any way because of Fania's persecution.

"Let me handle government affairs on my behalf is an order that His Majesty personally issued to the cabinet here, what do you want me to explain?

Your Majesty doesn't want to see anyone other than me during your retreat, this is also an order that Your Majesty gave to the palace attendants before your retreat, what do you want me to explain?

Fania, you're just a prince, not a crown prince! And I, the queen of the Golden Shield Empire!

What attitude are you using to speak to me! ”

"You must have used sorcery ......"

When Fania was about to charge Queen Christina, Agatha stopped her: "Big brother, please pay attention to your identity and the current occasion. Regarding my father's health, my family can talk slowly behind closed doors.

This is the Imperial Cabinet Meeting, and the Queen Mother represents our Sovereign, and you should give her the respect she deserves, and get the meeting back on the agenda. ”

Fania looked at the people at the conference table, and everyone looked at each other, obviously not wanting to participate in the siege of the queen.

Even the Meteorite ......

Fania saw the look of the meteor and the gesture of calming the people.

Helpless, Fania could only borrow the slope to get off the donkey, and said indignantly: "Agatha is right, this is our family matter, and it should not be discussed in the cabinet meeting." I'll be sure to figure things out when the meeting is over! ”

Fania put down the harsh words and sat back in her place, but her breath was still uneasy.

The palace guards also let their guard down.

The meeting room became quiet.

"Where did you just go?" Empress Christina didn't look at the nyas, she thought for a moment and said to Luke, "Yes, Governor Meteor, we're all looking forward to how you create another legend in the Westlands. ”

After a tumult, the meeting continued, and Luke recounted the important measures he had set up in the West.

"Dismantle the exploitation system of the Western nobles against the barbarians in the Western Territory, open up the trade route between the Empire and the Western Territory, and then the Moonlight Royal Court threatens the survival of the Western Territory, and the Western Nobles can only move closer to the Empire.

The railroad became the lifeline of the aristocracy of the West, and also became the main artery of the empire to influence the West. ”

"It's really exciting!" After listening to Luke's story, Empress Christina couldn't help but applaud and praise: "The problem that has plagued the emperors of the past dynasties has been solved so easily by you, and it is a blessing for the empire to have a young minister like you."

I also heard that you are the first assistant minister appointed by Her Majesty the Queen of the Moonlight Court, and are responsible for all the external affairs of the Moonlight Court? ”

Everyone in the cabinet meeting looked at Luke.

Compared with the annexation of the nobles of the Western Realms, the revival of the World Tree and the establishment of the Moonlight Royal Court will have a greater long-term impact, and they are events that can make the world feel sensational.

How to formulate a strategy for the relationship with the Moonlight Royal Court is a matter of concern to the Imperial Cabinet Ministers.

As the governor of Angry Waves City and the first assistant of the Moonlight Court, Meteorite's identity and status have become more subtle.

Luke replied, "The Elven Sky comes from the Ancestral Grassland, and is a fierce battle song that has guarded the remains of the World Tree for generations. She left the Westlands to find a way to revive the World Tree.

This revival of the World Tree, Clear Sky inheriting the authority of the previous generation of the World Tree, is completely unexpected by me.

Everyone knew that Sunny Sky was a scholar and had little interest in running the country, and she even returned to the imperial capital soon to continue managing the Saint-Lun branch of the Oulu Academy.

She appointed me as the first assistant minister of the Moonlight Queen's court in order to shirk her responsibility.

The World Tree is only giving, not taking, and the queen is obsessed with academic research, so the Moonlight Court is not aggressive, and can coexist peacefully with the Empire. ”

It was the first time that most of the people at the meeting had heard the news that Clear Sky was coming to St. Lun City. And she doesn't let the queen do it, but wants to continue teaching, is the supreme power just something that she disdains?

Empress Christina was apparently shocked by the news.

"Her Majesty is admirable! I also like to read very much, but the state affairs imposed on me during these days have made me read a lot less. I'm looking forward to meeting Her Majesty the Queen, and I think we certainly have a lot of common language in academics.

But now, I must fulfill the duty given to me by His Majesty to manage the Empire while he recuperates.

Since the Moonlight Court is friendly with the Empire, and the nobles of the Western Realm are attached to the Empire, there is no need for the Empire to maintain a large army in the Western Territory. I've heard that Prince Alec's Legion of the Westlands has a good fighting power......

Governor Meteor, do you think you should send the Western Legion to support the war on the Southern Front, or move to the North to fend off the impending invasion of the Atlantic Union? ”

Empress Christina's question immediately brought the meeting into an unusually strange atmosphere.

Luke also wondered how Christina could ask such a question to herself.

I'm just the Governor of Raging Waves!

You ask about the situation in the eastern seas and the civil war in the kingdom of Leo, I can still talk about it, but this kind of thing ......

Shouldn't you ask Nai Shoufu Gabril first?

Sure enough, Shousuke Gabriel's face was very bad at this time. Even if Empress Christina was not easy to answer this question, she skipped herself to ask Meteor, who was not even a cabinet minister, and she was simply humiliating herself in front of everyone in the room.

And what is the meaning behind this question?

Could it be that the queen wants to push the meteorite into the cabinet!

Although Gabriel knew that according to the current momentum of the Meteorite, he would definitely enter the cabinet in the future, and then quickly promoted to the head of the cabinet. But he didn't expect this day to come so quickly, this big wave after the big wave, he was going to shoot himself directly on the beach!

Is this what His Majesty meant, or is it the Queen's assertions?

Gabriel couldn't guess it, and he didn't dare to suppress the light of the meteorite when he returned with a great victory in the West.

Gabriel quickly stabilized his mood and signaled to other cabinet ministers not to come forward.

Everyone waited for the meteorite's answer, and Fania kept glancing at the meteorite.

At this point, Luke had a headache.

He finally got out of the palace struggle, and ran back to Fury Waves City thinking of completing his debriefing. Who would have thought that when he was about to pat his ass and leave, he was pushed and pulled into the game by Christina.

Thinking about the beginning of the meeting until now, except for Fania who was in the limelight at the beginning, the rest of the time was driven by Christina to focus the focus of the meeting on herself.

Don't...... Once a son of heaven and a courtier.

Christina's move is to win me over, and prepare to quickly dissolve Gabril's cabinet when necessary, and I will form a cabinet to support her as emperor!

Luke looked at Queen Christina, her blue eyes were so charming that she seemed to speak of her admiration for herself.

"I don't think it's appropriate for the Western Legion to go to the North or to the South right now."

Empress Christina ignored all the cabinet officials at this time, and only Luke was in her eyes: "Why? ”

Since he started to speak, Luke simply said it boldly.

"The war on the Southern Front has always been the responsibility of General Joshuel, and although the Tedgar Hills have not yet achieved decisive results, the Imperial army has always maintained an offensive and continued to put pressure on the Duke of Celts.

If Prince Alec leads the Western Legion to support the southern front, there will be a dilemma of who the army should listen to. Once they have a disagreement in command, it is very likely that they will be seized by the barbarian legions.

As for the North......

Winter is fast approaching in the north, and the steam machinery that the Atshire Union specializes in can play a very big advantage. Facing a large steam fortress advance on open tundra, the empire could only rely on forts and a small number of mobile steam fortresses to defend itself.

In order to adapt to desert warfare, the Western Frontier Army paid more attention to the use of cavalry. In the winter defense of the north, it is difficult for the cavalry to play a role, and there will be a large number of attrition due to frostbite. ”

Empress Christina nodded and said, "My knowledge of military affairs is very limited, thank you for the guidance of the Governor of Meteorite."

It's just that Alec's Legion of the Westlands is too wasteful to put in the Crescent Oasis. It is better to transfer the Western Frontier Army to the vicinity of the imperial capital as a general reserve for war and change of outfit and adaptation training. ”

Luke vetoed: "The Western Frontier Legion is a border army, and being transferred to the Imperial Capital Circle during war will definitely cause panic. Moreover, the Western Frontier Legion has just completed its reorganization, and the military discipline still retains the characteristics of the Western Territory, and the soldiers inside will definitely loot when they see the wealth of the imperial capital.

If Her Royal Highness doesn't want the Westside Legion to empty the Empire's supplies but has nothing to do, she can order the Westside Legion to downsize. ”

Empress Christina asked with great interest, "Tell me what you think." ”

"If the empire wants long-term stability in the west, it needs to develop the west, and the development of the west requires a lot of labor. Because the Western Legion has to guard against the nobles of the Western Frontier, the entire legion system is actually very bloated, with a large number of camel teams and logistics personnel flooded into it, and the command system is also very backward.

I believe that the Western Frontier Corps can be downsized and downsized, and the soldiers who are not suitable for combat can be reorganized into the Construction Corps, and invested in the construction of railroads and highways in the Western Frontier.

The remaining elite will be reorganized into a rapid multi-purpose reaction corps, while a large military training and exercise base will be built in the Crescent Oasis. The new Western Frontier Corps has been systematically trained and supplemented with special weapons and equipment, so that no matter which direction support is needed, it can quickly reach and fight quickly. ”

Christina looked at Luke with even more affection.

She asked the question to give Luke a chance to perform and pave the way for him to be promoted to the cabinet. Because how to deal with the Western Legion is a big problem for the court. Everyone knows that at this time, it is not appropriate for the Westland Legion to go anywhere, but they need to find a suitable reason for the Westland Legion to stay where they are.

Meteor's answer perfectly explained why the Western Legion couldn't go anywhere now, and gave a proper solution to stay where it was.

And it's so new and convincing.

Empress Christina is even more determined to win over Meteor, kick out Gabriel's old guys, and replace a vibrant and enterprising cabinet.

These old men in the court are the same as Augustine...... is old, the lake is muddy, there is nothing but infighting, and he still clings to power and does not let go.

It's time to make way for young people!

"The idea of streamlining the Westside Legion is excellent! ...... Gabriel"

Hearing the queen call himself, Gabriel immediately cheered up and replied: "Your Royal Highness, what is your will?" ”

"The Cabinet has drawn up a plan for the reorganization of the New Westside Corps and the Westside Construction Corps, and I will see it at the next Cabinet meeting. Start the construction of the Western Railroad as soon as possible, and by the way, build a large training and exercise base in the Crescent Oasis.

The Military Staff was instructed to communicate with Prince Alec to make him understand that the streamlining of the Westside Legion would not weaken the combat effectiveness of the New Westside Legion, but could increase it significantly.

The Military Engineering Department cooperated with the New Westside Corps in its refitting and training. ”

Gabriel replied respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness!" ”

Christina then asked Luke, "The Southern Front Empire is on the offensive, and General Joshuel's military talent reassures me. But in the north, the Empire is at a great disadvantage in the face of the Atshire Union, and there is no reassuring general to command the newly replenished Northern Legion.

Do you have any suitable candidates? ”

Luke vomited in his heart...... How can this ask me?

With such a big empire, can't you pick out a general who can defend the northern border!

Look at those cabinet ministers again, their eyes are as sharp as steel swords, and they want to pierce the heart of the governor's ten thousand swords.

"The War of the North is a fortified defensive battle. I think the most important thing for new recruits to replenish the Northland Legion is a morale-boosting commander who knows a lot about fighting in the North.

Candidate...... I propose that the Emperor's grandson, Xinke, come to His Highness. ”
