forest kingdom

boom!
Lawrence stood on the mountain and looked at the smoke from the artillery fire in the distance.

Even from a distance, you can still smell the unpleasant smell of gunpowder.

Violent explosions continued, and distant birds and animals quickly fled from the mountain.

Lawrence stood on the top of the hill, nearby were the students of Our Lady's College, as well as the Military Academy and many apprentice craftsmen.

Ironforge's craftsmen have trained a group of skilled helpers, and the scale has expanded dozens of times.

A lot of gunpowder was also accumulated in the Valley of Fire, enough for Lawrence to squander for two or three years.

"The effect is not bad. The current artillery range has reached 8,000 to 10,000 meters. It can play a good role in both naval and land warfare."

Lawrence turned and walked towards the crowd. The covering artillery could already deal with most of the threats posed by the wizards.

Basically, in terms of intuitive destructive power, the technological system is now slightly better.

The only ones who can pose a threat are some wizards with weird abilities.

Fleiss quickly shouted: "Great prophet, if there is no more war, what will we do?"

Lawrence formally told everyone what he thought, and he just didn't want to fight it out.

"I keep the elves in the Elf King's Court, so that those elves who are unwilling to come out of the forest can see the gap between us."

However, there was no intention to start a war with all wizards from the beginning to the end. The current approach of winning over most wizards gave the Kingdom of Stars multiple ways to deal with the threats posed by external wizards.

"So put away your desire to conquer everything every day, and don't think that not attacking the Elf King's Court is some grand preparation."

"I believe that starting from these two years, the conquered Kingdom of Glen and Io will be grateful to me from the bottom of their hearts. The great Lawrence Crowfeather will spread his wings to conquer and protect the humans on those two lands."

"No." Lawrence said seriously: "I have never put that place in my eyes. My people, your life will get better and better in the future. Even an ordinary family can live better than the former Elf Queen." better."

Sophia lowered her head in disappointment and whispered: "Master, everyone thinks that we must fight the Elf Queen. The war is not completely over yet."

"Why do you always care about the Elf King's Court?" Lawrence felt there was no need to trouble the Elf Queen, and he didn't want to add more members to the harem.

"Their suffering shows my greatness even more."

"Just like the Kingdom of Durela and the Kingdom of Deco, which were once unwilling to join the Star Alliance."

"I have left some people outside to tell your children and grandchildren what life you lived before."

"Even if they are conquered, they will feel grateful instead of hating us. This is the kingdom of stars that I command."

Sophia followed Lawrence excitedly, "Master, are we going to fight the Elf King's Court?"

“Our richness, our strength, needs some contrast.”

"There is no need to rush about this kind of thing." Lawrence looked at the people in front, "There will always be people outside the Kingdom of Stars who do not belong to our church and country. It is necessary for these people to exist."

"The common people of the Deco Kingdom and the Durila Kingdom will be envious of the fact that our people here have wine to drink and meat to eat."

"It's not that we won't fight, it's just that our God-given land needs peace." Lawrence suggested: "There will definitely be a war with the Holy Light Church. This is why I train you."

"Not only the fertile land in the south, I will send an envoy to the east soon. Arondo will lead the legion and a small number of elite warriors as envoys to the Eastern Islands."

After hearing that there was a battle, Fleiss and others breathed a sigh of relief. Not only Fleiss, but also many people at the Military Academy felt much more at ease.

Not fighting is definitely not a good thing for them.

At present, promotion to a noble title mainly relies on military merit, especially for barbarians.

If there is no war, there will be no rewards, there will not be enough money to drink and eat meat to support women, and there will not be enough assets to distribute to the children.

They are professional warriors and view war as a lifelong matter.

In the past, it relied on robbery and plunder, but since joining Lawrence, it has turned into war, and it is still an organized war.

Heidi thought about this matter quickly. Lawrence had never mentioned his ambition before, and Heidi did not think about it in this regard.

"Master, when will we attack the south? We can control the local nobles to work for us, and we don't need to worry about the slaves there."

Heidi felt that occupying the land was not the best solution, especially since her master was too benevolent. It was better to rely on the study abroad system to control the descendants of the local lords, and then let the descendants of the lords continue to abuse the serfs to pay tribute of food and output.

In this way, there is no need to take more care of those serfs, and only the technology needs to be spread.

In particular, you can rely on the output of industrial cities like Waterfall City to exchange a large amount of materials, and you can also get young people to come and work, and then let them work for a few years before returning to their own country to farm.

There has always been no problem with the intelligence of the witches, especially when it comes to thinking about profits and how to exploit them, they have always been very classy.

“This is happening slowly, winter is coming soon, and the first batch of children will gradually grow up in the next few years. Under my witness, they have gradually grown from babies who can’t walk to fathers and mothers who shoulder family responsibilities. "

"I've been waiting for these years," Lawrence told those nearby. "These are going to be our most important years."

"I have arranged things in agriculture and industry in advance so that the children's children will have clothes to wear, food to eat, a house to live in, and they will receive assistance when they are sick."

After hearing Lawrence's words, Bull bowed down respectfully, "Thank you, the merciful and great prophet!"

The rest don't know how to express their reverence, such as warriors like Fleiss.

They will kneel down when they are grateful, and they will kneel down when they are afraid. Most of the time, they subconsciously choose this posture to express various emotions.

Kneeling was not invented by Lawrence, and Lawrence did not know who invented this rule. It seemed to be something that was in his blood.

"Thank you! Merciful and great prophet!"

"Thank you! Merciful and great prophet!"

"Thank you! Merciful and great prophet!"

Hundreds of people were repeating Boole's words.

Lawrence nodded seriously to show that he heard.

Sometimes I think about it, even in modern society, many people do not make much difference in this level of situations.

"Try the power of the artillery for yourselves, learn to try it, and be careful not to point it into the crowd."

Lawrence frowned, "Whoever dares to point a cannon with shells at a crowded place will be beaten directly! It doesn't matter if he is killed!"

"Yes! Prophet!" Fleiss is very aware of the power of artillery. "Don't worry, I'm here to watch. If anyone dares to lose his mind, I will kick his ass hard!" (End of Chapter)
