"Marshal, it's okay for everyone to prepare strategic materials together, but how to implement it?"

After making eye contact with a group of conservative bigwigs, Duke Richard, the Minister of War, asked with concern.

When it comes to strategic materials, this work will most likely fall on the Ministry of Military Affairs. Hudson was only in charge of the army and never involved in specific logistical material collection.

If there is anything missing in the army, just reach out and ask for it, and the military affairs department has become a strengthened version of the logistics department.

Spit and complain, the work still has to be done.

Even with a reduction in power, the Ministry of War is still one of the most important departments in the kingdom.

It is nothing new for the Minister of War in wartime to have more say than the Prime Minister.

The high position and weight correspond to the heavy responsibility, and any chaos involving the military is fatal.

"Duke Richard, this is an easy question.

How the kingdom prepared strategic materials during the war, it is as usual now.

By directly assigning tasks to the provinces and counties below, you can complete the task of raising supplies on the front line, and you don't need to transport them from the rear.

Provinces and counties that could not raise enough supplies found their own way to transport them from their hometowns.

In short, after the outbreak of the war, the provinces and counties raised only a lot of materials! ”

Hudson replied calmly.

Under the banner of preparing strategic materials, then it must be carried out to the end.

How to do it, that's the noble lords' own business, anyway, he just needs the result.

If someone resists not participating, that's okay. As long as the war is in time, it is easy to say that the materials can be delivered to the front line in time.

Everyone present had been on the battlefield and knew very well how difficult it was to transport supplies over long distances in times of war.

A cartload of grain and grass is delivered to the front-line officers and soldiers from the rear, and often only 12 out of 10 are left.

If you are unlucky, you will be delayed on the road due to a natural disaster, and you will run out of food halfway.

With the continuous expansion of the kingdom's territory, the traditional land transportation mode is passively withdrawing from the historical stage.

The cost of sea freight is smaller, but that is only applicable to coastal provinces. Some inland provinces are thousands of kilometers from the coastline, and they have to be transshipped again when they arrive at the frontline ports.

In the past wars with the orcs, logistics have been the heaviest burden for everyone.

Obviously, he wanted to use everyone's strength to develop the territory, but in Hudson's mouth, it became a logistical problem for everyone.

It is uncertain how much stress will be alleviated, but the new scheme does save money, especially for the Royal Government.

After the wars, the royal government was in debt, in large part because of the lack of logistical supplies and the need to procure them from outside.

In addition to the kingdom's own logistics troops, caravans from all over the world are also an important logistical supplement to the kingdom's army.

If a few provinces on the front line can provide most of the strategic materials, then the kingdom alone will be able to meet the needs of the war, and the financial pressure will be greatly reduced.

"The marshal's proposal is good, and if you make the task clear directly, you will not be afraid that someone will shirk and not fulfill your obligations.

Once this strategy is completed, the strategic materials that the kingdom can mobilize in the war will inevitably increase significantly.

After defeating the orcs, we also had plenty of time to expand our gains, unlike the previous two times, which had to be hastily ended. ”

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Marquis Zuel, was the first to chimed in.

It is uncertain how much other strategic materials can be raised, but the food problem can certainly be solved.

Judging from the information fed back from various places, all the provinces on the front line have the foundation for developing agriculture, and most of them are still no-man's land.

If the big problem of eating is solved, the kingdom's war endurance will be greatly improved.

Even if the battle is not going well, with enough soldiers and food, the kingdom can drag down the orc empire.

The price paid was nothing more than the nobles from all over the country to send a group of serfs to the front line to settle the fields.

The most important thing is that there is no need for the Ministry of Finance to pay for it!

The serfs and craftsmen in the hands of the nobles were free labor, and the basic resources of land and mines were also provided by the lords in various places.

What seems to be a large-scale industrial transfer actually requires only some food.

It just so happened that the kingdom had caught up with a bumper harvest of grain, and the noble lords were more than capable of bearing this consumption.

The conservative giants expressed their support, and the new aristocracy was even less likely to oppose it.

In this wave of preparation plans, the emerging nobles are the beneficiaries.

Hudson's most important manufacturing industry, they don't have any intuitive feelings, but everyone is familiar with farming!

The proceeds of Tuntian went to the kingdom, but only temporarily.

After the destruction of the Orc Empire, these fertile fields opened up will become the lords of them.

Some people help open up the wasteland for free, and as a vested interest group, if they jump out to oppose it again, they don't know what to do.

"Marshal, this plan can be implemented as our national policy, but we still have to make it clear about the ownership of the property.

In order to destroy the orc empire, everyone can make sacrifices, but paying more nobles requires substantial compensation.

When converted into military merits, it is still a bit illusory, and more substantial returns are needed. ”

Prime Minister Beckett took advantage of the situation and put forward the conditions.

There must be a big picture, but there must also be a return on the effort.

"Prime Minister, I suggest that you communicate these detailed issues in private.

Noble lords have autonomy, and it is completely their freedom to cooperate with whomever they want. You can choose to support the side or choose to join forces.

The nobility of the front-line provinces can also make appropriate compensation to the partners, depending on the actual situation.

Just because you're not rich now doesn't mean you'll be poor in the future.

After the victory of the Great War, the kingdom's territory expanded again, and everyone's fiefdom increased accordingly.

In the future, when developing new fiefdoms, it is also necessary to invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.

When the time comes, there will be material support from the nearest noble lords, and I think the development progress will be greatly improved, and the development cost will also be reduced! ”

Hudson drew a large pie for the governors of the south-central provinces of the kingdom.

If you win the orc empire, there will be anything, so hurry up and invest your money!

Fortunately, this cake was drawn now, and if it had been a few years earlier, everyone would have rolled their eyes.

When the Near East was developed, the major families were cautious.

If Hudson hadn't taken the lead and pacified the hearts of the people to a certain extent, the Near East would still be a wilderness.

With the successful experience, everyone's thinking and concepts have changed.

There is no mandatory restriction on who to cooperate with, which seems to respect the choice of the aristocracy, but in fact it is mixed with Hudson's selfishness.

Working on your own means doing what you do.

Whether to eat meat or drink soup with it depends on everyone's own efforts.

The Snow Moon Collar, which had been prepared for a long time, obviously had an advantage.

The great nobles will support their own branches, but they also need to consider the cost input.

Many provinces with slower inland development are still good for agriculture, and if they want to develop industry, the infrastructure is too weak.

In terms of cost, the Snow Moon Collar is the best choice.

Of course, considering the principle of equal interests, after taking the cake of industry, Hudson will give up agriculture.

This kind of thing is to open up wasteland and farm, just let the people do it slowly, and he doesn't have time to hurry.

Other industries are not good, there is not enough talent reserves, and it is impossible to achieve the development of the whole industry chain.

In the simplest example, Hudson has the production process of magic crossbow and magic crystal cannon, but he can't produce magic crossbow and magic crystal cannon independently.

From the special steel used, to the final magic array carving, the technical thresholds in the middle are one after another.

This is true for magical equipment, and the same is true for other industries with slightly higher technical content.

Even if it can be barely produced, the cost is very impressive.

It's hard to believe that the oil extraction process without much technical content is also one of the problems restricting the development of the territory.

It's not that it can't be squeezed out, it's just that the oil yield is slightly lower, so "100 million lost".

In this era of illiteracy at the bottom, equipment and technical information are not enough, but also need to be taught by masters.

Now is the best chance to solve the problem, and Hudson can reach out to the old aristocracy in any industry that has anything to do with the military.

In addition to the entertainment industry, other industries can basically be involved.

Heavy industry is definitely included, and magic technology is fully covered, and even textiles and agricultural and sideline products processing can be pulled in.

Even if there is no direct relationship, Hudson can find an indirect relationship.

……

The court council was over, and the whole kingdom was boiling.

The royal government, which has been silent for so long, has finally done something, and as soon as it makes a move, it is a big deal that concerns everyone.

What conservatives are conservative, they are all nonsense to fool people.

There was no conscription at all in advance, and the palace meeting was directly concluded with a "national policy" level strategy.

According to the official announcement, this means that the kingdom will soon stage a great migration of millions of people.

In this magical world, the simple movement of millions of people is nothing, the key is that the people who migrate this time are all young and strong.

In the era of the National Reserve, the Alpha Kingdom was how many young and strong soldiers there were.

Clear-eyed people know that this great migration of people from south to east is completely aimed at the orc empire.

The kingdom not only shifted production to the east, but also transferred military power to the east.

Once the migration is complete, the royal government will be able to pull out a million troops as soon as possible after the outbreak of war in the future.

A decision made by the big people is a matter of life and death for ordinary people.

Since ancient times, "garrison" has been equivalent to exile, and this time the situation is similar.

Running thousands of miles or even thousands of miles away to open up wasteland is a test of life and death for ordinary people.

However, these feelings are only circulated in aristocratic circles, and serfs, who are at the bottom of society, still know nothing.

Public opinion is just boiling, but there are not many voices of opposition.

The topic of the destruction of the Orc Empire has been circulating in the kingdom for several years.

It's just that everyone discussed and discussed, but they didn't find an effective strategy.

After the last big victory, the kingdom's military strength was not much damaged, and when it was supposed to beat the water dogs, it was finally dragged down by logistics and had to stop.

After this experience, all the people of insight realized that if they wanted to destroy the orc empire, it was not enough to win militarily, but also to solve the problem of logistics.

Now that the plan has been given, the production will be directly migrated over, and the battlefield will be at the doorstep.

This kind of thing was never possible in the past!

Before the kingdom could complete its migration, the orc armies were killed.

Now the situation is completely different, if the orcs dare to come, just fight back, for fear that the orcs will not dare to come.

Compared with going deep into the steppe to find the main battle of the orcs, the cost of the local defensive battle is much lower.

The living force that can kill some of the enemy, and in the future Armageddon, the kingdom can reduce the pressure a little.

Compared with the optimism of the outside world, Hudson, the initiator, is not so optimistic.

The military dilemma can be solved, and the key is that the Alpha Kingdom and the Orc Empire are both great powers on the continent of Aslant and occupy an important weight in the two major alliances.

The war between the two countries will inevitably escalate into a game between the two major alliances.

The outcome of the war will have a direct impact on the future trend of the situation on the mainland.

In this context, if you want to destroy the Orc Empire, you must piggyback on the Interracial Alliance.

If you don't pull a whole human race country into it, no matter how well the kingdom is prepared, it will not have the ability to encroach on the orc empire.

Of course, Hudson could not have said these things to the outside world.

Everyone thinks that they can destroy the orc empire in one fell swoop, so let them think so.

With the confidence to win, everyone is willing to spend their money.

An efficient kingdom is manifested in all aspects, the internal distribution of tasks among the provinces has only just begun, and the question of cooperation is already on the agenda.

Just a few days after returning to the territory, Hudson's Lord's Mansion was bustling with activity, with people lining up every day to meet each other.

At first, I thought that these guys had a vision, and they saw the perfect infrastructure of Xueyue Ling, but after contact, they realized that they were thinking too much.

People didn't understand the actual situation at all, and they chose to cooperate with Xue Yueling, purely because of his name.

The big nobles have a solid family background, and while supporting their own children, they still have spare strength.

The middle and small nobles were purely for hugging their thighs, and past experience taught them that they would not suffer by following Marshal Hudson.

Fortunately, Hudson was determined enough to reject the offer to send serfs to open up the wasteland together, and only accepted the manufacturing industry.

Otherwise, all the people were absorbed by the Xue Yue Ling, and the other small and medium-sized nobles who did not have a backstage would not even be able to drink the soup.

Just get the most important industry, and swallow it all in vain, and you will only let yourself fall into the target of public criticism.

No matter how good the relationship is in the aristocratic world, once the core interests are involved, they will turn their faces.

……

"Hudson, what are you doing out again, why are so many people eyeing Franz?"

Hearing Melissa's complaint, Hudson was momentarily stunned.

Eyeing his eldest son, he is obviously tired of being alive, how can there be so many people looking for death in the kingdom?

The doubt didn't last long, and Melissa's "poof" laugh instantly made him understand.

There is an essential difference between "targeting" and "targeting".

If she really had bad intentions, Melissa, as a mother, would definitely not be able to laugh.

It's not that the person who came was not good, then it was for Franz's marriage.

Marriages between nobles are always sooner rather than later.

Like Franz, who was born with a golden key, from the moment he was born, he was remembered by someone with a heart.

As Hudson's status continues to rise, the aristocratic grade of Franz's marriage is also rising.

It is now 100001 year of the Sacred Calendar, and Franz is ten years old.

The age of the children of the nobility is indeed a little early. However, with his status and status, he will definitely not be able to catch up if he starts late.

Before receiving definite information, it was inconvenient for everyone to contact Hudson directly, and Melissa became the focus of public relations.

After all, the mother also has a strong say in the marriage of her son.

"Look at it yourself, you can't agree right away anyway. When Franz is older, listen to his own opinion before deciding. ”

Hudson said indifferently.

The son is in demand, and his father is also very face-saving. Although these people are all coming for him, the father, it does not affect the final result.

The marriage of the great nobles itself has to weigh the pros and cons, and the interests of the family are higher than personal feelings.

is willing to listen to his son's opinion, that is already a very enlightened performance, and more noble children are married in confusion.

Not only Franz, but also the small ones below were also targeted by them.

Some classmates who have never been in touch with me have jumped out to have a relationship with me! ”

Melissa said with some smugness.

When she was in the Academy of Magic, although she was not a little transparent, her status was not very high.

There were many noble children, and the Holliser family at that time could only be regarded as average, and she was destined to be impossible to be overshadowed by the stars.

The appearance of magicians is not bad, it is difficult to have a qualitative gap in girlhood, and the most sought after are always magical geniuses and the most noble ladies of the nobility.

No one expected that fate would be so wonderful, and after more than ten years, she suddenly changed from a supporting role to a protagonist.

Even if you don't have much activity in the ladies circle, as long as you appear, you will still instantly become the focus.

Everyone's motive is very clear, that is, they are eyeing her sons. If the eldest son can't reach it, the second son can also marry.

The aristocratic world has the most important bloodline inheritance, and in the eyes of the outside world, Hudson is so powerful, his descendants must have good genes.

Whether it is the cultivation talent or the ability to lead troops to fight, any inheritance can become the backbone of the kingdom.

What's more, Hudson has so many fiefs under his name, and it will continue to increase in the future.

Such a huge industry is really too eye-catching, and it will definitely be split up in the next generation.

Even if the eldest son inherits most of the estate, the second son's share of the inheritance can catch up with the average nobleman.

With Hudson's lifespan, it is destined that for hundreds of years, the Coslow family will be one of the most important families in the kingdom.

With such a high-quality marriage partner, you must grab it in advance!

"You can be perfunctory first, and if you really can't do it, you will push it on me, I think everyone is willing to wait.

In case the future that you have decided in advance is disabled, you don't want to be resented by the children! ”

Hudson joked.

Melissa has always been steady, and it is impossible for the child's marriage to make decisions without him as a father.

The outside world wants to get married, but also to get closer to him.

If he could not get his approval, the value of the marriage would be lost by half.

Purely planning for the happiness of children, that is. The child is so young, who knows what the future will be.

Hudson himself didn't find anything unique from his sons, and his cultivation talent could only be regarded as a middle-class person, and his ability to handle things was still being cultivated.

The biggest difference is that you will be reincarnated, and you will be born directly at the end of what others are fighting for.

If you don't become a talent, you will be a rice borer for a lifetime, and someone will feed you.

If you don't have to worry about losing your family, your sons and grandchildren can continue to lose, as long as you die earlier than Hudson, you don't have to worry.

Thinking of this, Hudson looked at the eyes of a few boys, and suddenly it was wrong.

If this situation really happens, wouldn't he have to work for this group of little guys for the rest of his life?

"Father, we haven't been in trouble lately!"

Unable to withstand Hudson's strange gaze, the youngest Caesar spoke first.

It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. The misfortune is that there is no breakthrough, but it does not mean that there is no problem.

The nervous expression clearly told Hudson that they had committed another crime.

"Franz, you're the boss, you speak first.

Aren't you planning to run away from home again? ”

Hearing Hudson's ridicule, Franz was full of black lines.

Running away from home, this is his biggest black history.

Young and ignorant, he thought that by removing all the servants, he would be able to get out of the "cage" that bound him.

As a result, because the mansion covers too much area, he accidentally lost his way, and he was tired of lying down before he left the lord's mansion.

Originally, it was nothing, but the second bear child also left a letter.

The children of the aristocracy were generally precocious, and Franz, who had been studying for several years, already had a preliminary idea of his own family.

Mom and Dad don't care that he runs away from home, that's confident.

Even if you run out of the lord's mansion, there is still a city outside, and running out of the city is still your own fiefdom.

Leaving the fiefdom, there is also the larger "cage" of the kingdom. As long as it is in the control area of the Terrans, Lord Hudson's name is easy to use.

"Nonsense, I've never left home!"

Franz retorted.

As long as the parents of the black history know, they must not let the younger brother below know, otherwise it will be endless trouble.

After reading the history books, he realized how important his identity as the eldest son was.

Fortunately, the younger brothers are young and have no concept of power. Otherwise, if you meet an older brother who has a history of running away from home, you will definitely have to work hard to encourage him.

"We just accidentally lost our homework book, it's definitely not that we didn't do it......"

Before she could finish speaking, Melissa changed her face first. Seeing the storm of mixed doubles coming, Franz Jr. hurriedly shut up.

"You guys are really good brothers, you can throw your homework books together!

If you don't want to do your homework, you don't have to do it. I've had a lot of time lately, so you'll have a good experience with me. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hudson and Melissa picked up their leather whips and started mixed doubles against the four brothers.

The sound of a whoa's cry sounded in his ears, and it gradually soothed Hudson's wounded heart.

Deep down, he has decided to strengthen the education of his sons. Reason told him that if he continued to indulge like this, he would be wasted in the future.

……
