If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

Cultivation is a black hole.

As long as enough apostles are recruited, no matter how many resources are thrown in, it will only make a splash.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and strength is accumulated bit by bit.

Now that he has made a fortune, after negotiations, the resources that Tashina gave Roman can allow him to upgrade a thousand apostles from ordinary people to quasi-first-level or first-level knights.

This is just the military hiring fee.

The management fee of the Lion Territory will not be less than this, and it will be used to cultivate think tanks at that time.

Roman has thought it through and will directly send his think tank to help Tashina.

Use the resources given to him by Tashina to cultivate talents, and then let them help Tashina and exercise political ability.

It can only be said that the wool comes from the sheep.

Taking out so many resources at once, the big fat sheep is a little overwhelmed and exclaimed that it is great.

Because she got the whole future.

Using Roman's people to cultivate her power, she is not afraid that Roman will play tricks.

She only believes what she sees.

The King of the Valley will not trip him up. Even if they meet in battle in the future, he will only fight her in an open and aboveboard battle!

She believed in her eyes. Roman had no shadow in his heart. He was a loyal and enthusiastic king.

If you make an ally with such a person, you will never have to worry about being backstabbed!

Roman was also very satisfied. The apostle was his most loyal one. It was a great deal to defeat the Lion Territory in exchange for a thousand combat units.

Moreover, even if there was no Tashina, Roman would fight the Lion Territory in the future.

He had done a lot of governance work in the City of Plenty in the past two years. Now that the stability had been improved, he could continue to expand. The Lion Territory was an excellent choice.

But if Princess Baigang wanted it, Roman would give it to her. Anyway, he still had other lands to fight for.

For a moment, Roman felt that if other factors were not considered, when Tashina's conquest plan was really going well and the Valley Army expanded to half of the Black Iron Land, the two sides would most likely have a decisive battle, similar to the decisive battle of the Chu-Han War.

Thinking of that situation, Roman was excited... It was impossible.

Princess Baigang was too confident.

She might be able to achieve great success on the battlefield, but war is a continuation of politics. When the two sides duel, everything about her will be exposed.

Your people are mine, and you are mine too. Training you is training me. By then, I will have plucked all your wool, and you will only have a bare white body. What can you use to fight me?

...

The two of them had their own ulterior motives, and both felt that they had made a big profit.

Roman wanted to strengthen the apostles and speed up production.

Tashina continued to run to the military camp.

The military system of the Valley Army is self-contained, different from the outside world's conscripted army.

The conscripted army is a stag, used to fill the line, creating opportunities for the expedition knights to enter the field.

But the Valley Army is different. It has professional war literacy and excellent equipment. The infantry phalanx focuses on frontal crushing. In the battlefield ecological niche, it has completely surpassed the expedition knights and become the protagonist of the battlefield.

The gap was huge, and the knights who followed Tashina to the valley were a little dumbfounded.

To put it bluntly, they looked down on the lower-level infantry.

Infantrymen are idiots, complete fools. Relying on the lower-level people will never achieve great things. This is the result verified by countless knights for hundreds of years.

The conscripted army is not good at fighting. They don't obey orders, can't launch a decent charge, and will flee when they encounter setbacks. All victories are brought by the knights.

Now it's different. An army composed of slaves and poor people can actually win the battle by themselves?

But it can't be refuted.

Because the Valley Army proved this as early as the Tianma Plain.

The scene of the War of Kings was extremely chaotic, but no one could deny that it was the Valley Army that resisted the front battlefield.

The Oak Elite Soldiers, Axe Guards, Black Iron and other knights of conquest, they are scarce in number and all elite, it is impossible to resist the front line.

And the Crusade Army in the Tianma Plain has more than 100,000 people-this is not the limit of the Church, but the limit of the battlefield, which can only accommodate so many people.

The River Valley Army withstood most of the pressure from the Holy War Army, and the army's organizational strength was bursting.

According to unreliable statistics, the Holy War Army suffered nearly 100,000 casualties in the War of Kings. The entire battle was extremely brutal, and the entire young and middle-aged generation of the Tianma Plain was wiped out.

Among them, 60% of the casualties on the side of the Holy See, and an estimated 30,000 to 50,000 deaths, were directly related to the River Valley Army.

This number is extremely terrifying. The River Valley Army fought out of the hellish battlefield. Some soldiers had post-traumatic stress syndrome, and hundreds of people retired on the spot-human cognition and psychological endurance are limited, so they can only submit resignation letters.

And Roman also approved all of them to avoid their personality breakdown-some soldiers are really crazy.

In modern society, there are still people with depression despite the abundance of material resources, and humans in this era are all potential lunatics, and war is a catalyst for human spiritual alienation.

How can people not be crazy!

Roman also personally experienced the bloody and cruel hell through the [Battlefield Simulation]. Retirement is also normal. However, the River Valley Army has a strong cohesion, and most of the soldiers are his die-hard fans. Some people who are unable to undertake combat missions refuse to leave the army, and Roman has to personally persuade them to leave the army.

The current River Valley Army has been purified and tempered. Although the number of soldiers has decreased, they have become more terrifying, with a cold and indifferent temperament.

The knights of war wondered if these guys were really farmers and slaves a few years ago?

Fortunately, they are allies, not enemies.

Because the knights on the expedition could not find their position, the two sides could not cooperate. They could only continue to practice and exercise, and gradually became familiar with each other's fighting styles and strengths.

Roman has a problem with Tashina's appointment.

The relationship between the two parties is very complicated. In name, Tashina is his boss. After all, when he opens the city gate to welcome Tahina, it is equivalent to acknowledging the latter's status as the Black Iron King.

But in terms of military affairs, it was impossible for Roman to delegate power to Tashina.

In the end, he could only be temporarily appointed as a 'special military marshal', who was nominally half a rank higher than the corps leader Jeter, but he could only take action after the decision of a military meeting.

Her black iron, white knights, and oak elite soldiers totaled nearly 500 people. It was impossible to join the battle order of the River Valley Army. That would only mess up the original army layout.

Roman organized them into an independent column and sent three auxiliary brigades to obey Tashina's orders.

Nine hundred auxiliary soldiers and five hundred elites immediately formed a powerful military force.

This is a standard ace team with extremely high mobility.

…

This winter is coming to an end.

This land is about to usher in a new year, which is also a chaotic and unknown year.

Io III died in the War of Kings last autumn, and the order of conquerors disintegrated.

The entire land was actually silent in winter, as if all the wars had disappeared.

The dragons in the north are dormant, the Holy See Army suffers heavy casualties, and the River Valley Army troops return to the court...

However, people who have experienced the war of kings all know it.

It was by no means a war to end wars.

Instead, it was just the prelude to another long and brutal war.

…

At the end of Roman's fifth year in this land.

He brought Gweir and Lysa back from the field. It was a winter wheat experimental field with extremely high yields per mu, and those wheats could become next year's seeds, bringing more and better harvests.

Roman returned to Origin Manor and saw Seth coming over quickly.

Roman's finance minister looked panicked, holding a piece of pleading in his hand, and his precise and powerful wrist trembled a little, as if it was something terrifying.

"Seth, what happened?"

"Your Highness, the crow messenger brought bad news from Fenghuang City." Seth had never seen such shocking news.

Roman's expression was relaxed and his posture was casual: "Just tell me."

Seth picked up the ancient pleading covered with seals and read in an extremely heavy and dry voice:

"The Lion Felin family declares war on the King of the Valley..."

"The Beast Carter family declares war on the King of the River Valley..."

"Lord Knitting Alençon, declares war on the King of the Vale..."

Just when Roman was about to ask which onion the Count of Alençon was, he heard Seth say in a heavy tone again:

"The Count of Blois declares war on the King of the Valley..."

"Count Verdes, declares war on the King of the River Valley..."

"Lord Pierre, declare war on the King of the River Valley..."

"Count Wieliczka, declares war on the King of the Valley..."

"Provence, the King of Lavender, declares war on the King of the Valley..."

"Doria, the Lord of the Mud Swamp, declares war on the King of the River Valley..."

"Lord of the Rexia Islands, Lord East, declares war on the King of the River Valley..."

"Baron Frey, declare war on the King of the Vale..."

"Baron Bramon, declare war on the King of the River Valley..."

With an almost trembling voice, Seth announced the names representing different nobles one after another.

That list is full of names of princes!

There were barons, counts, and lords of certain areas. All forces, large and small, including the southern, central, and western parts of Black Iron, gathered together and unanimously declared war on a remote force.

A total of hundreds of nobles participated in the battle because they received a crusade order from the Lord of Black Castle.

What a terrible thing!

Roman's mood was definitely not good.

He foresees that the future may be dire.

But I certainly didn't expect things to develop to this point.

He violated the rules of heaven, right? !

In the entire Black Iron Land, with more than 10 million people, all the nobles united, just to deal with him, a small noble who had just obtained the fief for five or six years?

One hundred thousand troops? Two hundred thousand! Three hundred thousand!

Totally crazy! !

Countless noble forces will come over and engage in a decisive battle to the death with the King of the River Valley!

What medicine are you taking? !

I originally thought about beating you to death one by one in a few years, why do you force me to beat you all to death now? !

Gweil opened her mouth slightly. She was far away from the war and had no real sense of the seriousness of this matter.

But when Lysa Silveryue heard the news of names and declarations of war one after another, her face suddenly turned pale, as if she was thinking of horrific memories, and her body started to tremble.

Roman's expression no longer relaxed, and his face gradually became cold and stern.

He knew that the Holy See must be behind this.

The nobles who remained on the sidelines or remained neutral during the battle of Tianma Plains all chose to convert to the gods after the collapse of the conqueror's order.

This is the general trend, in the context of religious jihad. Grand Dukes such as Raging Tide and Armorbreaker may have options. But those princes and forces who are independent and helpless have no choice but to kowtow to the Holy See and beg for mercy.

The declaration of war is their declaration of surrender, and strangling the forces of the blasphemers and the remaining forces of the conquerors is the ultimate goal of the Holy See.

"Then let them do it. Seth!" Roman said.

"I told you, this is something that no one can stop!"

His face was grim and his words were cold: "But, will having more people be useful? A bunch of paper tigers are just paper tigers in the end! I will not show mercy to insects like nobles!"

"This is their declaration of war on me! It is also my declaration of war on them! It is also my declaration of war on the entire earth!!"

"Start from here! Trample everyone! Challenge the entire earth!"

"Trample the whole world under your feet!!"
