"Count, the Grand Duke of Ephiero has come to visit."

Just after quelling a dragon and bear battle, he received this big news, and Hudson was also speechless.

I have dealt with the Grand Duke of Ephiero, which can be regarded as a bit of incense, but this little friendship is obviously not enough for the Minister of War, who has a lot of opportunities, to come and visit in person.

You don't have to think about it to know that the Grand Duke of Ephiero must have come for Maxim this time.

He had known that someone would be eyeing his dragon, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. The war had just ended, and everyone was busy receiving the fiefdoms, and the Minister of War came to the door, and this efficiency was also leveraged.

But it's normal to think about it, the dragon estrus is a thing that is full of uncertainty in itself, and if you don't communicate it in advance, you don't know when the next time will be if you miss it.

Referring to the practice of the Frankish kingdom, everyone prepares the female beast that needs to be mated in advance, and waits for the dragon to come into heat.

The great nobles of the kingdom did not come to the door, most of them did not have time to prepare the female beast. After all, while the dragon's genes are strong, the genes of the mother beast are just as crucial.

The minimum requirement must be a Warcraft, and if an ordinary beast is bred with a dragon, the potential of the Wurmon born is not high.

Of course, it is not good if the level of Warcraft is too high, not to mention that the probability of genetic mutation is too high, the fertility of the wurmon will also be limited, and even directly lose its fertility.

At the end of the day, everyone wants a Monster Legion that can be mass-produced, not a talented young beast.

The ability of female animals to give birth is the most basic, preferably the kind of nest by litter, and the growth cycle should not be too long.

In addition to these limitations, consider the attributes of Warcraft. Maxim is a fire-type dragon, and it is undoubtedly the best choice to choose a fire-type demonic beast to borrow a seed.

With so many restrictions, even the great nobles can't handle it for a while. After all, borrowing seeds is also full of uncertainties, and it is not just one or two female beasts that can succeed.

"Invite him to the parlor, and I'll be right over!"

Hudson immediately commanded.

The personal visit of the Minister of War representing the Kingdom must be taken seriously. The main thing is his Warcraft Legion, which will be down soon!

With the Coslow family's ability, God knows how much time it will take to find the right female beast to mate with Maxim.

Naturally, a sane Hudson would not do such a waste of time and energy. There is a kind of dragon in hand, and you can wait for everyone to send it to the door to talk about cooperation.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and there is a price to pay for borrowing seeds. Collecting gold coins is too cheesy, and it is easy to hurt feelings, so it is better to share the results directly.

Of course, this is limited to females with potential. After all, the Warcraft Legion has never been about having more races, the better, and that adds a lot of intangible costs.

The most economical way to do this is to pour the power of the kingdom into cultivating one or two excellent war beasts, and build a Warcraft army based on them.

Judging from the successful eucalyptus examples, they are basically played like this. Although the wurmists that everyone has cultivated are strange, there are only one or two that can be selected as mounts for the Warcraft Legion.

This kind of thing also requires a certain element of luck.

For example, the Kingdom of Libya has done it many times, but so far it has not come up with a sub-dragoon suitable for the air force, so it can only use giant eagle cavalry and griffin cavalry...... In lieu of.

Mainly due to the time limit of the dragon's estrus, one mating is unsuccessful, and I don't know how long it will take to wait for the second time.

When the dragon knight's longevity was exhausted, the dragon ran away directly, and the experiment had to be aborted. In the years of having a dragon knight, no one can say how many times he will be able to experiment.

……

"Tea, very nice. It seems that His Excellency the Earl is also a man who loves life! ”

Archduke Efiero said with a smile.

For a group of nobles who eat meat as their staple food, tea has long become a necessity of life.

But when it comes to tea tasting, Hudson is a layman. This drink from overseas is a proper luxury in the continent of Aslant, and only wealthy nobles are qualified to pick on tea varieties.

The pot of tea brewed in front of him was sent by Yin Sabel, and Hudson was completely ignorant of the tea variety he chose.

I don't know if it doesn't matter, since the guest said it was good tea, it was really good tea. Anyway, this meeting is not for tea.

"Haha...... That's nature. Unexpectedly, His Excellency the Grand Duke is also a person who understands tea. If you like it, you might as well bring some back! ”

Hudson said with a smile.

Everything was so natural, as if he really knew tea.

"Then thank Your Excellency the Earl for your kindness!

In addition to reminiscing about the past, there is also an important matter concerning the future development of the kingdom that needs to be discussed with you! ”

Archduke Ephiero said cautiously.

From that serious expression, Hudson read everything. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately cooperated and asked: "I don't know why the Grand Duke came this time?" ”

Politics is like that, you can't be too smart. The play must be completed.

"Your Excellency, you personally commanded the troops to participate in this war, and you have a deep understanding of the military strength of the countries on the mainland.

Especially their Warcraft Legion, they have shown good combat effectiveness, I wonder if His Excellency the Earl has any ideas? ”

Archduke Ephiero asked with concern.

Regarding the vigorous development of the Warcraft Legion, there are actually differences within the kingdom's military. There were those who expressed support and others who objected.

Both sides had their own reasons, especially after Hudson's proposal to build a magic crossbow and a magic crystal cannon legion, which pushed the controversy to a climax.

Compared with the magical beasts that may have accidents at any time, the lifeless magic crossbow and magic crystal cannon are obviously much easier to control.

Now within the Ministry of Military Affairs, there is only a reluctant agreement: vigorously promote the construction of the Warcraft Legion.

If he wants to develop the Warcraft Legion well, he must first win Hudson's support, otherwise the plan will not go ahead at all.

"Don't hide it from the Grand Duke, the Warcraft Legion of the major forces is indeed very powerful. In my opinion, once the problem of the cost of Warcraft is solved, the Warcraft Legion will definitely become the mainstream of the mainland army.

It is said that the Tyrannosaurus rex of the Frankish kingdom, with the help of magical potions, only takes seven years from birth to battle.

Pterodactyls were cultivated for a little longer, but not more than ten years.

This growth time, although much higher than that of War Horse, is already acceptable. If we continue to research, this time may be further reduced.

If you don't consider the cost, they already have the ability to breed Warcraft on a large scale.

The progress of the other major forces is slightly slower, but the gap is not too great. Maybe the popularity of the Warcraft Legion will be a matter of the next few decades! ”

Hudson said worriedly.

These messages were all public in the coalition, and as the commander of the kingdom's army, Hudson naturally had to pay attention to the messages of his allies.

As for the question of whether the news is true or false, it is not so important. Since the Grand Duke of Ephiero has come to the door, it is obvious that the kingdom wants to develop the Warcraft Legion.

"Your Majesty and His Excellency the Earl share the same opinion, and both believe that the Warcraft Legion is the mainstream of future wars.

In this regard, it is not only our human race that has conducted in-depth research, but also many races among the alien races that have formed the Warcraft Legion.

At present, it is not the Frankish kingdom that has gone the farthest in this field, but the ancient elven race. Compared to us humans, elves have a natural ability to get close to nature, and it is obviously easier to get close to Warcraft.

It is not yet known how far they have come. What is certain, however, is that the Franks are ready to form a Warcraft legion on a large scale.

According to the information gathered by the kingdom, Charles III had privately announced that he would form eight Tyrannosaurus rex legions and five Pterodactyl legions within five years.

The specific number of personnel is unknown, but with the cards of the first kingdom of the continent, a legion they formed must have at least thousands of Warcraft cavalry.

Holy See, Kingdom of Libya, Black ...... and more than a dozen major forces of the human race have similar plans.

The rest of the Terran forces have also taken action in secret, but the progress is not obvious for the time being.

The kingdom is already seriously lagging behind in this regard, if it doesn't catch up and wait for the major forces to complete this military reform, it will be a big trouble! ”

Listening to the words of the Grand Duke of Ephiero, Hudson secretly cursed shamelessly. After all these reasons, it's not for the sake of growing dragons.

When it comes to the righteousness of the kingdom, it is nothing more than a subtle telling him: Don't extort bamboo at such a time, it will cause public anger.

"Your Excellency, if the kingdom forms a Warcraft legion, I will definitely support it 100%.

But the problem is that although I am also a magician, I don't know anything about cultivating magical beasts. Even if you want to help, you don't know how to start! ”

Hudson deliberately pretended to be a lake.

The bamboo pole can not be knocked, but the initiative must still be fought for. As the Minister of War, the Grand Duke of Ephiero was still very busy, and he didn't have time to spend time with Hudson slowly, so he immediately got straight to the point:

"Your Excellency, you will certainly be able to help in this matter. Judging from the current Warcraft legions formed by the major forces, they are all dominated by sub-dragon beasts.

Most of the seeds of cultivation research come from dragons. As the fourth dragon knight in the continent, the future of the kingdom rests on you. ”

Hearing this explanation, Hudson's face almost darkened. What does it mean to pin on him, it is obviously pinned on Maxim.

It was Maxim the Red Dragon who wanted to mate with the Monster, not Count Hudson.

After a moment's hesitation, he didn't open his mouth to refute it. It's just a slip of the tongue, and I don't care so much.

"Your Excellency, it's useless to convince me alone, the key is to be willing to cooperate with the dragon.

You know, dragons don't have a pattern in estrus at all. Although it is theoretically possible for an adult dragon to actively enter heat, there are too few examples of such success.

At least the other three dragon knights were unable to convince their dragons to agree.

As a new dragon knight, I know even less about the habits of dragons, and it will be difficult to convince the red dragon to take the initiative to enter the estrus period! ”

If you are not afraid of "difficulties", you are afraid that you will not be able to do it. Whether it's fooling or buying, as long as the red dragon contributes seeds, he doesn't care about the process.

The worst outcome is nothing more than waiting for the dragon to come into heat naturally. If you can start it early, it's worth paying a certain price.

"Your Excellency, don't hesitate to mention any difficulties. As long as the kingdom can solve it, it will help you do it! ”

Grand Duke Efiero rubbed his forehead helplessly and said.

When it comes to interests, he immediately feels a headache. It's just that this kind of thing can't be refused, after all, it's too difficult to artificially control the dragon into heat.

It's not that no one has thought about secretly drugged, but the problem is that the dragon is not good at the lake! In case the goofs are discovered, it is a major accident.

The kingdom only wants to borrow seeds from the dragon, but it is not ready to make a feud with the dragon. What's more, this lack of morality, Hudson, the dragon knight, will definitely not agree.

"The Great Gong is serious! It's not that I'm having difficulties, it's that Mr. Maxim, the red dragon, has difficulties.

You don't know how big the dragon's appetite is, and my ranch is running out of stock. But Maxim is a picky eater, and he must have fresh cattle and sheep, and he must have raised them under his watch.

In order to solve this problem, most of the land in the county has been turned into his pasture, but it is still not enough.

The main reason is that the counties are too scattered, and the area where the lord's palace is located is mountainous and mainly mining, and there is a lack of suitable pastures.

If you can swap territories and gather scattered fiefdoms together, I think this problem will be solved very well.

Mr. Maxim is very affectionate, even if it is a borrowed seed, it is also his descendant. The offspring born by the Demon Beast cannot all be taken away, and he must be left with a little thought.

If it is an heir he doesn't like, it's okay to take it away, but he has to give adequate compensation. The dragon's hobby, I want to come to His Excellency the Grand Duke also knows! ”

Looking at Hudson's embarrassed expression, Archduke Ephiero cursed shamelessly in his heart. is obviously seeking benefits for himself, but he is pulling the banner of a dragon.

It is true that the dragon is greedy for money, but it is too underestimated to let them sell their "life seeds" for money.

Rather than trading, the dragon clearly prefers to use grabs. For dragons, problems that can be solved with fists are never a problem.

"Your Excellency, on the question of the replacement of fiefs, I can only promise to convince the king as much as possible. But on the council's side, most of the time there will be trouble.

Especially the nobles of the Northlands, they have never cared about the overall situation of the kingdom, and often do things that are ridiculous.

The other two troubles, as long as Mr. Maxim's appetite is not large, should not be a big problem. ”

Inadvertently, the Grand Duke of Ephiero hacked the Northland nobles again, obviously the royal family has torn their faces with these guys, and they don't bother to hide it.

It is easy to act as an opposition in the Council of Nobles, but it is possible to pass a resolution without unanimous support, and it is possible to have some negative votes.

Except for the Hudson family, everyone else is ready to join the "borrowing" team, and at this juncture, everyone will only choose to "trade".

"Don't worry about it, my Alpha Kingdom is not up to those guys in the Northlands.

What's more, this time is different from the past, and the internal strife alone is enough for them to toss for several years, how can they have the energy to run and make trouble?

The next biggest trouble is to convince Mr. Maxim, and you have heard of the dragon's arrogance, and it will take several months to convince him to agree, and I don't know how much trouble it will encounter in the meantime.

During this time, the kingdom must first prepare the mother animal. After all, we have no experience in dragon estrus, and if the duration is too short, and if we miss the opportunity to think about it a second time, it will be a big trouble! ”

Hudson said bitterly.
