But soon, everyone's faces became gloomy.

They all knew very well that if it was really what Hathaway said, they would not have the ability to fight back at all.

The fifth-class title of the kingdom, the prince and the male, the first level is the first level, the hierarchy is strict, the baron can only have one town at most, and the population can only be like Hathaway's father, with a population of more than 100,000, which is almost the upper limit.

But what about the viscount, a fief of a hundred miles, a city under his jurisdiction, a population of hundreds of thousands, and tens of thousands of soldiers, he can crush a baron to death casually.

The earl has a fiefdom of thousands of miles, governs a county, is in charge of several cities, has a population of one million, and has 100,000 soldiers, which is almost a country.

Needless to say, the higher dukes and marquis are existences that the current Xu Kuang can't touch at all.

Several people understood that if Viscount Bai Hua was moved, then they really had no chance to resist.

Xu Kuang hurriedly asked:

"What is the personality of this Viscount Birch?".

Hathaway replied:

"Greedy for money, lustful as life.".

Xu Kuang laughed when he heard this.

Everyone looked at Xu Kuang, and they didn't seem to understand why Xu Kuang was laughing.

"I didn't expect that I, Xu Kuang, would be afraid of such a person today, but I was afraid that he wouldn't come! Spread the king Xikui! ”。

Wang Xikui is now the platoon commander of the reconnaissance platoon, and there are fifty or sixty scouts under him.

Wang Xikui came to Xu Kuang and saluted Xu Kuang.

"I'll give you a confidential mission now, go to White Birch City, go to investigate Viscount White Birch, I want the specific situation, the more specific the better, do you understand?".

"Understood!".

Xu Kuang waved his hand and said to Wang Xikui:

"This mission is quite difficult, I will allocate five thousand gold coins to you, after you arrive in Birch City, you must recruit some trustworthy people and establish a contact point, and there must be no less than three messages from Birch City every month."

Wang Xikui was originally surprised by Xu Kuang's generosity, but when he heard Xu Kuang's request, he knew that the task was arduous, so he had to take the order and leave.

Hathaway looked at Xu Kuang, and was a little stunned for a while, until Xu Kuang called her several times, and she came back to her senses.

"What's wrong with you?".

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen you like this.".

Xu Kuang sighed helplessly, and he said to Hathaway:

"My father died early, and I have witnessed the warmth and coldness of the world in the few months I have been a lord, so it is natural to learn some things and give up others."

When Hathaway heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little complicated:

"Aren't you worried that my prediction was wrong?".

Xu Kuang said to Hathaway in an unquestioning tone:

"Your prediction can't be wrong, it's just a matter of time, even if Frio doesn't go to him, one day when my business opens to White Birch City, he will take the initiative to come to me, this industry is so profitable, how can it not be eye-catching? It's just that I'm just a baron, and my soldiers are outnumbered, and it's hard to speak in this corner. ”。

Hathaway looked at Xu Kuang, only to feel that she admired this guy who was a few months younger than herself more and more.

Xu Kuang began to arrange orders again.

"Order the company-platoon-level cadres and the chief officers of various agencies to come to the conference room, I want to have a meeting.".

Everyone was ready at once.

……

Xu Kuang looked at a room full of people and asked:

"Do you know why I asked you to come?".

Everyone's faces were calm, of course they didn't know, but since Xu Kuang asked them all to come, they came right, and there must be something to tell them.

Xu Kuang slowly opened his mouth and said:

"From now on, our enemy has changed from a baron to a viscount, don't be surprised, this is not an existing enemy, but an imaginary enemy, but the enemy will come at any time, I hope you can tense your nerves and work together to tide over the difficulties with my Mushroom Ridge.".

Xu Kuang looked at Zhang Dameow:

"Now I announce the first order, the new army of Mushroom Ridge Rock, the army will be expanded into a regiment within three months, the navy will also have two companies within three months, and there are eleven people in the academy who have awakened to become natural priests, and I am going to organize them into the air force for this part of the people, and I will go to the provincial capital in the near future to buy a batch of flying magical beasts and let these natural priests contract."

The three major professions of priesthood: totem, nature, and alchemy, each have their own advantages and disadvantages.

The totem priest is a priest who can bless various totems for the army, which is equivalent to the buff of later generations, and is an indispensable role for the army.

Natural priests,It is a priest who can communicate with nature,This kind of priest is a bit similar to a magician,You can also learn some of the magician's beginner and intermediate spells,But the higher ones are difficult to learn,Their biggest feature is that they can conclude a contract with the beast,Drive the beast,Even merge with the beast,The strength should not be underestimated。

Alchemy priests, naturally, don't need to be introduced too much, they mainly rely on various alchemy machinery and alchemy elixirs to fight, Xu Kuang is.

When these natural priests become cultist-level priests, they can sign their first Warcraft, Xu Kuang's request is that all such people will be incorporated into the air force, and let them act as air forces before the aircraft has no manufacturing capacity, even if the aircraft is built, these natural priests can also command their partners to act as wingmen in the back seat.

Xu Kuang read out:

"Now I announce the order of the Mushroom Ridge Military Commission, ordering Zhang Dameo to be the head of the Third Regiment of the Panshi New Army, and ordering Chen Xiaohu to be the deputy head of the Third Regiment of the Army.

The two gave a military salute to Xu Kuang at the same time.

Xu Kuang continued:

"Huang Xiumei, the production capacity of the iron mining workshop is not enough, you must continue to increase the production capacity, and also, your iron mining workshop is upgraded to a metal smelting workshop, from now on, your direction is not only iron, be ready to burden yourself."

Huang Xiumei stood up and saluted with her fists.

Xu Kuang looked at Hathaway:

"Since you want to be an official with me, you have also seen that life is not good, and it is too late for you to quit now."

Hathaway's eyebrows rose up, and she said softly:

"Don't look down on people, I said that if you want to be an official, you must be an official, and you must do a better job than you stinky men."

"Well, the industrial and commercial bureau under your rule is now understaffed, and there is an empty shelf, this is your own business, I limit you to improve the internal structure of the industrial and commercial bureau within three months, and I will give you a program to let you understand what the industrial and commercial bureau does, you remember, business is the foundation of my mushroom ridge, and you must not underestimate it."

When Hathaway heard this, her little face was bitter, and she realized how much of a burden she had received.

But she had no choice but to scold Xu Kuang in her heart for being a bad guy.

Xu Kuang looked at Ryan:

"Ryan, now I have lightened the burden on you a lot, but you still have the general command of the Agricultural Bureau and the Taxation Bureau, these two departments are also the most well-structured, I want you to improve the specific ratio of agricultural tax and commercial tax in these months, compile it into a book, and distribute it to the people."

"Understood.".
