Chapter 235 Sponsors

When Lufford was captured before, it may have been out of caution, or it may have been informed of the information in advance. It had already left Luford City before that, and it was missing.

For such a monster with an easy-to-use brain, not bad strength, and experience in managing medium and large organizations, in Tang Zhao's view, it is undoubtedly a threat worthy of vigilance, so he arranged for people to track the opponent's traces on the day the opponent fled. After expressing his interests and interests to Norton, the other party also agreed to provide assistance within limits.

Oran is not a small country, but with the assistance of state agencies, as long as it uses the transportation system within the territory of Oran, it will more or less leave clues.It is certain that the beholder probably did not leave by water. It is inevitable that dwarves and elves are not used to this kind of creature. There is a large dense forest, which is the territory of the elves and Tang Zhao, and it is difficult for the other party to hide from the sentinels and animal friends in the forest.

From a comprehensive point of view, the beholder is now either hiding in some unknown hidden place, or has gone north to seek refuge with hobgoblins and orcs. According to Tang Zhao's understanding, the beholder is quite a vengeful creature. Moreover, there is no restriction of moral order. After all, what people believe in is not those gods of order, but the mother god of the beholder himself. He is not a good man and a believer. It is very likely that he will cooperate with the enemy in the north.

The other party has been operating near Luford for many years, and he is very familiar with the environment and conditions here. Next time, if hobgoblins or orcs come to attack again, it may cause even greater trouble. Tang Zhao has already written a letter to inform him of this matter. After leaving Julia, the other party also promised to take preventive measures in the short term, it depends on how to implement it.

Lu Fude's side is still far behind. The previous earl was relocated to an area near the capital, and he became an ordinary earl, enjoying his old age. He is already very satisfied with this arrangement. , it's hard to ask for more.

The new consul replaced him, with Luford as the center, representing the royal family to handle various government affairs in the west of Oran, followed by an entire army of tens of thousands of people, easily deterring the surrounding nobles who made small moves them.The overall framework of Lufford City has not changed, but things like smuggling and slave trade have been strictly investigated and banned. As compensation, many measures that are beneficial to merchants have been released. Generally speaking, Julia should want to make the city To become a more standardized business, transportation, trade hub and ruling center is a good thing for people like Tang Zhao who want to do business in peace and make money. It is a bit like an ally relationship with the royal family.

In addition, Tang Zhao further strengthened the defense lines on the east and north sides of Insula, and now the underground passages between each site and Karak Solma have been basically connected, which can transport living supplies and team personnel. The coordination between the stronghold outside the city and the fortress is much more convenient. Karak Solma can enter a fully armed alert state within 15 minutes of discovering the enemy, and is not very afraid of the enemy's surprise attack.

Two months passed in a flash. In the first month, there were sporadic noble rebellions all over the country. Most of them were the nobles who were about to be liquidated. What big storms, on the contrary, can strengthen the authority of the royal family and take back more territories to the current queen.

After a month of repairs, Julia also fulfilled her promise and began to buy warships and cargo ships from various coastal commercial cities. The Southern Elf Kingdom and Tang Zhao spent a lot of money to buy wood and began to build warships.

Originally, the royal family of Oran didn't pay much attention to the navy. There were only a few small inland river fleets, which were used to intercept merchant ships that did not pay taxes. The fleets of various cities were combined to form a seemingly large navy directly under the royal family. There were nearly [-] navigable warships, not counting the attached cargo ships.

In fact, Tang Zhao is very clear that this navy has never undergone systematic reorganization at all, and there are many hills inside, from sailors to commanders to warships, there are a lot of good and bad. I hope they pretend to be okay and really fight tough battles against other maritime powers or murlocs. , then it would be better to ask the people on the warships of the Haim Church for help, at least their combat effectiveness is guaranteed.

Julia is also very clear about this. She is busy dealing with this matter now. In the future, this fleet will play a big role in the war against the orcs, but it is far from the time yet.

Tang Zhao had already explained to her that Haiji was looking for the remaining dwarves in the north, and at the same time brought the emissary of the dwarves to the capital to meet Julia.Julia was very enthusiastic about this kind of big dog family with money and equipment, and promised to prepare a fleet to go to sea to help them find their relatives in the north.

In fact, this is just a matter of course—Julia originally wanted to send a fleet to detect the sea conditions, find out the specific situation of the murloc activities at sea, and at the same time have an understanding of the general distribution of orcs on the shore, so as to do intelligence work for future wars. It's not too much trouble to find the dwarves by the way.

Tang Zhao probably understood the other party's plan, but he didn't say anything. The dwarves basically didn't care about these things, and readily paid most of the fleet's sailing expenses.

After the dwarf envoy left, Tang Zhao did not follow, but asked Julia.

[I'm curious about one thing, how did Norton deal with the previous green dragon? 】

"It's very simple, it's just doing things with money. Norton promised to give him one-third of his property after his death, and it was witnessed by the Luoshanda Church and others. If you have money, the dragon will naturally work hard."

[I suggest you be careful. Norton is the commander of the legion, and the green dragon gets one-third of the legion commander. Norton is the duke, and the green dragon gets one-third of the duke. . 】

The power of the Castei family has not been weakened much after this battle. On the contrary, there is a faint tendency to expand towards the army. This is not a good thing for the royal family. Compared with Norton, who is not very knowledgeable, Tang Zhao is still more inclined to cooperate with himself Julia many times.

"Don't worry, the Castei family will not be a threat to the royal family of Oran. Norton is also very aware of this. He will not do anything that threatens you. But this time, do you want to follow the fleet to see?" Depending on the situation, the captain I assigned is very interesting."
