The Perfect Fusion of Dimensional Apocalypse

As a result, Artoria's reputation among the people rose rapidly, and at the same time, Zhou Xiaoning, the royal advisor, was also famous. After all, this series of reforms and seeds came from him. How could those poor farmers Can not appreciate.If this were in Huaxia, someone would probably give him a longevity card.

In fact, when this policy was first implemented, Zhou Xiaoning thought that some aristocrats whose interests had been damaged would come forward to oppose it, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.Not to mention the powerful force of him, Merlin, and Artoria is there, but anyone who cherishes their own life will not confront them blatantly.Secondly, in the hearts of those nobles, except for people of their class, everyone else is a pariah, and they don't deserve too much attention from them. What's more, the land contracted by Artoria is not from them, so why should they bother? That leisure.

Precisely because of this, most of the nobles let this policy go, neither agreeing nor opposing it.But as the life of those free farmers got better and better, the tenant farmers under the nobles couldn't help but become more active. Many people would rather go to land reclamation than work for those nobles.Although it will be a little hard at the beginning, but with the support of a series of preferential policies offered by Zhou Xiaoning, as long as they survive the first few years, their lives will definitely get better.

Because of the departure of a large number of professional farmers, it is difficult for the nobles to find suitable people to help them take care of the fields, and they will naturally fall into disuse after a long time.

But at this time, Zhou Xiaoning took advantage of the situation to reclaim the land at a very low price, and then transferred the contract to farmers.After he did this, nearly [-]% of the land in Great Britain belonged to the royal family, not to mention greatly reducing the strength of the nobles, but also firmly grasping the hearts of the people.Now, those nobles who want to do something don't need Zhou Xiaoning and the others to take action. The masses of the people can drown them with a single spit.

You must know that the eyes of the people are discerning. They know who gave them a good life now, and whoever wants to destroy it is their enemy!

I'm afraid that those nobles never even dreamed that things would develop to this extent. Otherwise, even if they risk offending Zhou Xiaoning and the others, they would have to cut off the signs at the very beginning.Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world. All they can do now is put away those unrealistic thoughts, and even a considerable number of nobles took the initiative to hug Artoria's thigh and began to work for her.

It has to be said that there are still many talents among the nobles. For example, many knights of the Knights of the Round Table are from noble backgrounds.

What Arturia wanted to see was a prosperous Great Britain, so naturally she would not refuse the service of those nobles, and she even took this opportunity to reorganize the Knights of the Round Table.

Based on what she knew about each knight, Arturia recruited all her companions in memory one by one, Lancelot, Gawain, Geraint, Bedivere... a total of more than [-] people, although they did not reach their peak There were more than [-] people in the period, but so many outstanding knights gathered together, it is also an unprecedented prosperity.

However, the difference from the original history is that this time, there is an extra Zhou Xiaoning in the Knights of the Round Table, and instead of Lancelot, who is supported by the first knight, sits in the position closest to Artoria.

No one objected to this. Although none of them had seen Zhou Xiaoning make a move, the queen they supported, Artoria, had publicly said that if life and death were to be fought, she would not be Zhou Xiaoning's opponent.Her Majesty the Queen is a perfect knight and will never lie, so every Knight of the Round Table will respect the strong when facing Zhou Xiaoning.

In terms of government affairs, the current prosperity of Great Britain is the best proof of Zhou Xiaoning's ability. No one here dare say that they can do better than Zhou Xiaoning.

In addition, the ambiguous relationship between Zhou Xiaoning and Artoria can be seen by anyone who is not blind. It is just to save Artoria's face, and no one talks about it publicly.However, in private, the bet on when Zhou Xiaoning and Arturia will be together has been going on for a long time. It is said that the initiator is Artoria's foster brother, that is, the young man named "Kai".

Chapter 45

On this day, the round table meeting was held as usual, but the participants were no longer as relaxed and leisurely as before. Instead, all of them had solemn expressions, and they could tell at a glance that something important had happened.

"My king, this is the battle report we just received."

Bedivere handed over a newly received battle report to Artoria with a serious face.

Artoria quickly browsed through it, and handed the battle report to Zhou Xiaoning.The same is true for Zhou Xiaoning, after taking a look at it, he passed it on to the next person.

In this way, one person passed on the other, and after more than ten minutes, everyone had read the battle report and knew about the massacre at the border.

"It's finally here."

Artoria sighed secretly. She had experienced the same thing in the original history, so she didn't appear too shocked.

"My lord, what do you think about this matter?"

Artoria said with a blank face, this made all the knights a little uncertain, wondering what Her Majesty the Queen thinks about this matter.

The silence lasted for a while, and finally Kai, who had a close relationship with Artoria, spoke first: "My lord, those invaders are really hateful. They burned, killed and looted six of our villages in just three days. A small town has caused tens of thousands of casualties, and also robbed a lot of food and property. This is a provocation to our Great Britain, so I beg my king to order me to lead the three thousand Kingdom Army to give those invaders some color. Bar!"

Kai's words were like a start, and immediately after that, other knights also called for the fight, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, as if the invaders were right in front of their eyes.

At this time, Artoria waved her hand, suppressing the angry voices of the knights.However, she did not express her opinion immediately, but turned to look at Zhou Xiaoning and asked, "Xiao Ning, what do you think?"

"Hehe, it's just a group of thugs who don't want us to live a good life and want to take the fruits in our hands. For this kind of people, I will only do one thing, and that is - kill!"

As soon as the words fell, a cold murderous intent spread throughout the conference hall, causing all the Knights of the Round Table to shiver uncontrollably.

This was the first time that the Knights of the Round Table felt Zhou Xiaoning's power positively. You must know that they were all the most outstanding knights, and they were beyond comparison with ordinary knights in terms of temperament and strength.But even so, the moment they felt Zhou Xiaoning's killing intent, they all had the idea of ​​not daring to be enemies with him. This is simply an unbelievable thing. I'm afraid no one will believe it if they say it. .

Fortunately, Zhou Xiaoning's killing intent was not directed at the Knights of the Round Table present, so apart from being taken aback at the beginning, he was able to resist it afterwards.

"Your Excellency is right, you must not let those hateful invaders go!"

Lancelot slammed the table hard. Because of his inner anger, he didn't hold back the punch. If the round table built by Zhou Xiaoning himself was not of good quality, he might have smashed it.

"Yes, Sir Lancelot is right."

"Beat them!"

"Let them pay for the crimes they committed!"

Lancelot's words aroused constant responses from all the Knights of the Round Table. In this way, the main tone of the meeting has been set, which is to send troops to destroy the invaders, but how many troops to send, who to lead the army, and how to fight, all have to be further studied. discussion.

"It's not enough to just defeat them. Since we want to fight, we should do it in one step, so that they will never dare to invade Great Britain again!"

When Zhou Xiaoning said these words, he was full of confidence.

You know, the current Great Britain is very different from the one in the original history.Thanks to the high-quality seeds provided by Zhou Xiaoning and the agricultural reform, Great Britain no longer has to worry about food. Several large granaries in the country have been piled up. A granary can supply the consumption of the entire Great Britain for a year.

With so much food, Zhou Xiaoning naturally wouldn't let it just sit there. He only kept the reserve for half a year, and the rest was used to trade with neighboring countries, while the other part was used to train soldiers.

Zhou Xiaoning has long been unable to see the private soldiers of the nobles with uneven combat power, so the time has come. He asked Artoria to recruit troops on a large scale in the country. After several layers of screening, he finally recruited [-] soldiers Strong recruits.

Arturia and the Knights of the Round Table will be in charge of the subsequent training, so Zhou Xiaoning doesn't need to worry about it.

However, Zhou Xiaoning did not take time off, all he had to do was to prepare weapons and equipment for these soldiers.

In terms of refining tools, Zhou Xiaoning has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he wants to be perfect no matter what.Since those soldiers are ordinary people, no matter how good things are in their hands, they will not be able to exert their due power. Therefore, when Zhou Xiaoning refined this batch of weapons and equipment, he used ordinary iron ore as the main material and mixed it with a small amount of low-grade iron ore. Using high-grade materials, [-] sets of full-body armor were refined, as well as other western-style spears, long swords, bows and arrows, etc.

By the way, Zhou Xiaoning dug the iron ore used in the refining by himself. Otherwise, with the mining capacity of Great Britain, it would be impossible to collect so much iron ore within two or three years. The cost of transportation, the up and down expenses, is also a huge expense for Great Britain.

Sophisticated equipment, perfect logistics supplies, and high-intensity military training, under such circumstances, if two years cannot train an elite army, then Zhou Xiaoning and others should just wipe their necks and kill themselves. Remember that person.

According to the battle report from the front, the number of invaders this time is not too many, only about [-], and after they invaded the territory of Great Britain, they scattered and looted, which is why so many places suffered, but Zhou Xiaoning and the others did not The reason why I just got the news now.

In this way, the other party's intentions are obvious. This attack is just a test. If Great Britain cannot even block this level of attack, it means that this rich country has no threat, and the enemy will follow Massive invasion, complete occupation of Great Britain.

And if they encounter stubborn resistance, the enemy can also roughly estimate the strength of Great Britain's military, so that they can arrange the next combat deployment.
