Seeing off the Archduke Ephiero, who had initially reached an agreement, Hudson began to feel worried.

Maxim's brain is not very good, but the main reason is that there is a lack of common sense and cognition in life, which does not mean that he is really simple.

The means of drugging, at most, are played once or twice, and he will definitely find a problem if he has more times.

The main thing is the current aphrodisiac potion for dragons, which lasts too short to complete the dragon breeding plan.

If the kingdom wants to engage in the Wurm Legion, it is already lagging behind the countries, and if it wants to catch up in a short time, the only way to do it is to get more female beasts to mate.

Even if the dragon's combat power is strong, but if you have to face hundreds or thousands of female beasts in a short period of time, it is estimated that the real dragon king will have weak legs.

As a member of a vested interest group, Hudson still has a strong sense of belonging to the Alpha Kingdom.

If the kingdom really falls behind in this round of military changes, I don't know how much it will cost to make up for it in the future.

If you don't catch up at this moment, it's like a fool who still insists on taking the pure infantry route when cavalry is popularized on a large scale.

With the kingdom's R&D capabilities, magic crossbow, and magic crystal cannon technology, Hudson has always been skeptical about whether it can catch up with the top level of the mainland.

Even if the technology catches up, mass production is a big problem. The core components have to be imported from the dwarven kingdom, which is the most fatal flaw.

Although the top powers on the continent, such as the Holy See and the Frankish Kingdom, also need to import some parts, they can also make them themselves.

Even if the cost of making it yourself is more expensive than buying dwarves, the production capacity is different.

Originally, the number of alchemists in the southern countries was even higher, and they had gone further technically, so what did the kingdom have to chase in a short period of time?

The gap is not only these, including the magic modification of transport vehicles during the war, and the technology also comes from the southern powers.

The advantages of the northern countries are only the strong people, but in the transcendent world, these advantages are really insignificant.

Resisting the extraordinary troops of various countries with flesh and blood, anyone with a little brain knows how hard it will be.

The gun shoots the first bird.

As the up-and-coming commander in this war, if a big foreign war breaks out in the kingdom, especially the kind of war where the enemy is strong and we are weak, there is a high probability that Hudson will lead the troops.

I can't shirk it if I want to. The stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility, it's not a joke, otherwise why would the kingdom give him such a high salary?

If you don't prepare for some things in advance, if they do happen, it's too late to cry.

Fortunately, the continent is still in a period of overall equilibrium, and the existence of alien races restricts the internal strife of the human race, and the major forces have no intention of starting a big war for the time being.

The brainwashing work against the red dragon must begin. Otherwise, when the kingdom has gathered the mother beast, he has not yet dealt with Maxim, and it will be embarrassing.

Hudson had never doubted the military sensitivities of the kingdom's nobility. As long as the royal family takes the lead, all parties will definitely choose to cooperate.

The joint-stock state is like this, there is money to pay, and there are beasts to make beasts. The cultivated Warcraft mounts, in addition to the part of the kingdom's standing army, everyone will also take a share from it.

As for the Warcraft Legion alone, it's not that Hudson looks down on people, but in terms of the strength of the major families in the kingdom, no one really has the confidence to do so.

Of course, the network of nobles is complicated, and it is not excluded that someone will be able to obtain Warcraft mounts from abroad.

It's just that this probability is very small, and it is difficult to have a large outflow of war beasts at least at this stage. Even if it can be obtained, the price it needs to pay will not be less than supporting the kingdom itself.

……

On the Holy Mountain, Pius VII was looking at the newly released map of the continent in distress. This wave provoked the orc invasion, and the Holy See was a blood loss.

The Alpha Kingdom has indeed been hit hard, but it is still far from the expected decline.

"Didn't you say that you had already succeeded, why did Caesar III still live after so long? Is it your plan to let him live to the end of his life? ”

Pius VII asked angrily.

As long as Caesar III lived for a day, the plan against the Alpha Kingdom could not be implemented. No matter how much you provoke internal contradictions, it is useless, and there is no chaos at all if you have the backbone.

The original partners, the orcs were beaten to the point of dying, surviving in the slits. The nobles of the Northland, who had high hopes for the Cholera Alpha Kingdom, wanted to die by themselves, and the Holy See didn't know where to start if they wanted to help.

Now that the war is over, the situation in the Alpha Kingdom has stabilized, and Caesar III is still alive and well.

If this situation continues, it is estimated that it will not be able to come out of weakness in a few years.

At that time, this staunch anti-papal kingdom will most likely come out to do things again. In the eyes of Pius VII, Charles III and Caesar III were the greatest heretics on the continent.

However, these two heretics are not easy to deal with, and even the Holy See does not dare to attack them easily.

"Your Majesty, there may have been some changes in the situation. The Alpha Kingdom is a big country after all, and it still has some heritage, and it is normal to have some treasures that prolong life.

Caesar III was still alive for the time being, but his body and bones had long since broken down. Relying on some treasures to prolong your life also has its limits.

Maybe in another two or three years, we will be able to hear the news of his death.

In a sense, it's okay to drag it out like this. If Caesar III had died too quickly, everyone would have linked his death to the Assassin.

When the time comes, all the major forces on the mainland will do their best to track it down, and although we have done a covert job and arranged a number of scapegoats, we still can't guarantee that nothing will go wrong.

After all, some heretics still have in their hands a certain ability to predict the past and the future. At a certain price, it is still possible to track us down! ”

Ulise hurriedly explained.

Receiving the credit for the assassination of Caesar III, you have to bear the consequences of this. No matter how ridiculous the reason is, he has to arrange it.

As for whether Caesar III will die or not after two or three years, we will talk about it when the time comes. Anyway, the longer it drags on, the more difficult it will be to verify.

It was originally a forcible task, and deep down, Ulisene was 10,000 resistant. If he really left a flaw, he would 100% become a scapegoat.

"Caesar III's question aside, what is the question of the Necromantic Archmagister?

Your Holy Hand keeps saying that Earl Hudson is an undead archmagister impersonated, but the reality is that there is no problem at all.

Because of this incident, we can't even raise our heads in the coalition forces, so we can only give up the dominance to the Franks! ”

Blake asked, angry.

Because he listened to the words of the intelligence organization, in order to fight the Alpha Kingdom that day, he confidently stabbed out the matter of the undead archmage.

I thought I could make the Alpha Kingdom embarrassed in front of the coalition army, but I never thought that the clown would be himself in the end.

However, when this question is raised at this moment, Blake is really not falling into the ground, but seems to be helping Ulise out of the siege.

Compared to Caesar III's reluctance to meet the Lord of the Dawn, the small mistake in intelligence is not worth mentioning at all.

"Captain Blake, there may be another story behind this matter. The people we sent that day saw it with their own eyes: Hudson unleashed undead magic, and it was instantaneous.

In terms of magic strength, it is true that only the Undead Archmage can do it.

If you can't check it out in the coalition, it only means that you met Earl Hudson himself, and the last time we dealt with it was an undead archmagister.

I suggest raising the level of surveillance of Hudson and digging up the undead archmage hiding behind the scenes as soon as possible, because there are other blasphemous organizations hidden in it! ”

Uliste explained in serious political terms.

In short, there is only one core: everyone is fine, and the problem is that the enemy is too cunning.

It's a pity that the clever realm of throwing the pot, no matter how hard you play, you can't hide the seventh asylum above.

It's all his leftover means, if he believes it so easily, how can he, the pope, be it?

"Humph!"

"Since you're all right, it's mine's fault. It's right to keep you in the Holy Mountain for retirement, and you waste shouldn't be arranged to go out on a mission! ”

As soon as the Pope's words fell, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became solemn.

Blake and Ulise's faces were even more gloomy and terrifying, it was really wrong to mess things up and dump them on the enemy, but they had no choice!

There is no right or wrong in the adult world, only pros and cons. There are many things that you can only do head-on, even if you know that you shouldn't.

"Your Majesty, heretical organizations have been a bit rampant in recent years. In Franks, Yoon Libya...... Among these big countries, they even dared to show their faces in public.

It is said that the heretic Charles III, who is in contact with them, is preparing to form an arcane academy and invite these guys to give lectures.

Once their plan is successful, the fruits of thousands of years of painstaking efforts of their ancestors will be ruined! ”

Facts have proved that at the critical moment, it is still necessary to shift the topic of Dafa. Compared to the upcoming Arcane Academy, the previous ones can only be regarded as pediatrics.

As soon as Bishop Sauron's words came out, Pius VII couldn't care less about continuing to curse. If the arcane academy that pursues the truth appears, the impact on theocracy can be imagined.

Necromancers, wizards, arcanists, and soothsayers who have been hunted down by them for many years...... will re-emerge and re-emerge on the mainland.

……

After the completion of personnel adjustments, the first high-level meeting of the territory also quietly kicked off.

As a good leader, Hudson naturally does not discriminate. The "important ministers" sent abroad were also called back to attend the meeting to jointly contribute to the development of the territory.

"The main purpose of this gathering is to discuss the future development of the county.

We are all important managers of the territory, and I would like to hear your opinions before making a development plan. ”

Listening to Hudson's words, everyone's expressions were a little excited.

To be qualified to participate in the formulation of the future development plan of the territory is undoubtedly to enter the core decision-making level of the territory, which obviously regards them as "their own people".

Hudson was also very helpless to make such a decision. Winning people's hearts is secondary, the key is to develop the territory now, he must rely on the people present.

As for loyalty, as long as they can serve the territory now and don't betray immediately, then they can be considered loyal vassals.

Even if he occasionally passed on some information, Hudson was able to open one eye and close one.

The development route of the territory is too obvious, and it can't be hidden from the experienced old fox at all. It is destined not to be kept secret, so it is simply not kept secret.

The original mountain collar was a flat boat, and the current mountain collar is a luxury giant ship. Also sailing in the sea, the ability to resist risks has been greatly improved.

A little wind and waves, Hudson was still able to withstand it. Even if the outside world knows about his development plans, it is difficult to do anything.

"Your Excellency, our territory is too scattered, and a reasonable development plan can only be made according to the actual situation of each region.

Considering that the resources of the territory are limited and it is impossible to take into account multiple aspects, the best option is to exchange land with nearby lords and concentrate the fiefs as much as possible. ”

Andrea was the first to propose.

As the former head of the intelligence organization, after a new round of personnel adjustments, he was appointed by Hudson as the lord of Snow Moon City.

It seems to have been reused, but it is also far from the center of power. But he can't say anything yet, after all, the intelligence organization is in his hands, and he can only say that the infrastructure has been completed, and there is no efficiency at all.

Information is effective, and if it cannot be obtained in the first place, it will lose its due significance.

The intelligence organization lagged behind, and this is not Andrea's responsibility. After all, if you want to plant a spy, it won't be an overnight problem.

The most important thing is that Hudson does not have so many talents in his hands, so he uses them to engage in intelligence. Most of those sent out to collect intelligence are not very good at management.

Compared to the spies planted in the territory by other nobles, it is not at the same level at all.

Mo said that he had entered the decision-making level of other people, and there were very few people who could blend into the camp of the old nobles.

Most of the time, their task is simply to gather the major events of local developments. It's all news on the surface, and more in-depth information, which is unimaginable.

If there is no result that can be produced, there will naturally be no right to speak. To be able to get a high position is already considered lucky.

But no matter how good Snow Moon City is, it can't change the fact that it is far away from the Lord's Mansion. And it's not the ordinary far, directly out of the southeast province.

There is no way, a turnip and a pit. Although most of Hudson's territory was in the southeastern provinces, it was inevitable that a few enclavies would leave the province.

Outsiders are always difficult to mix, if it weren't for his limelight, all kinds of conspiracies would have been attacked.

can smoothly complete the territory handover, it is because the local snakes are afraid that he will secretly run over to beat the stick. Similar things happen from time to time in the aristocratic world.

Seeing that a nobleman is unhappy, or has a grudge against a nobleman, he will take someone to beat him in private.

As long as you don't kill someone, even if you are found out by others for revenge, it's a big deal to be beaten back by others.

It is true that the means are somewhat unruly, but it is also part of the struggle of the aristocracy. As the saying goes, the more high-end the fight, the more unpretentious the means.

"Well, I've already made arrangements for this, but the coordination period may be longer. In a short period of time, everyone still has to develop a good territory.

Even if it is a territory replacement, a prosperous territory and a depressed territory, the value is not a grade.

What we need now is to develop a short-term development plan, and the time cycle can be based on the actual situation of each place, and there is no need to pursue local synchronization.

There are only two prerequisites, which are:

1. For enclaves far away from mountain territories, strive to develop the territories in the shortest possible time; The core area of the territory pursues long-term development;

2. Control budget input. The plan must be carried out according to the actual situation of each locality, and cannot be divorced from reality, and the investment must not be too much. ”

Hudson said frankly.

The fact that he wants to replace the fief is not a secret in the kingdom at all, and naturally there is no need to hide it.

It's all part of the dragon plan deal, and the next political PR is just a formality.

If the main nobles in the kingdom do not object, the rest of the people will not be able to make waves. What really needs to be communicated and coordinated is the party who changes the land.

This is not a big problem, as long as they take advantage of a little bit when changing land, and then subsidize everyone's moving expenses, the matter is basically solved.
