Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

“I understand,” Gustav responded subconsciously, his mind still dwelling on the previous presumption of unfavorable northwest war news, thinking this was just a pyrrhic victory.

“What? A great victory, what did you just say? Say it again?”

After a moment, Gustav finally realized the true meaning of the messenger's words. He widened his eyes, his eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

Originally, he thought he was about to face bad news, but he didn't expect to receive the good news of victory. This huge contrast made the always calm emperor somewhat lose his composure.

The ministers also showed expressions of surprise. They looked at each other, seeing the same surprise and doubt in each other's eyes. The atmosphere in the entire hall instantly changed from solemn to a complex atmosphere of shock and joy interwoven.

The messenger looked solemn and proud. He slowly took out the wooden box from behind, the wooden box exuding a mysterious and solemn aura. He took a deep breath, and then shouted with all his strength: “Your Majesty! A great victory in the Northwest! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extraordinarily brave and personally beheaded the Beast Emperor Doragon. That Beast Emperor Doragon is the leader of the orcs and their spiritual symbol. Now that his head is in a different place, the orc army is in chaos,

and can no longer form an effective attack on the Northwest.”

His voice echoed in the hall, every word hitting everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.

When Emperor Gustav heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Then, an incomparably bright smile bloomed on his face, a smile containing excitement, relief, and pride. “Good, good!” He stood up, clapping his hands and said loudly, so excited that he was a little incoherent.

His body trembled slightly, and tears flickered in his eyes, a sign of joyful tears.

As a father, he was proud of his son's bravery and achievements:

As an emperor, he was extremely excited about the empire's great victory.

The ministers were also shocked by the news. They first looked at each other, and then burst into cheers.

In the entire hall, the originally solemn atmosphere was completely dispelled by this sudden joy, replaced by a scene of jubilation.

The ministers congratulated the emperor one after another, praising the crown prince's achievements. Their voices intertwined, forming a song of victory.

After a long time, after the joy, Gustav rewarded the messenger and waved for the messenger to step down.

After receiving the reward, the messenger did not leave immediately, but hurriedly took out another letter and respectfully presented it.

“Your Majesty, this was sent by the old Prime Minister Robert to your subordinate.”

Gustav was slightly taken aback, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then he reached out to take the letter.

The letter paper was of excellent quality and exuded a faint fragrance of ink. He gently opened the letter, his eyes falling on the lines of handwriting.

“Your Majesty, have you been well recently—” The beginning of the letter was the old Prime Minister's usual greeting, with concern revealed between the lines. However, Gustav knew that Robert would not just be sending a simple greeting, this letter must contain important content.

“Your Majesty, this great victory in the Northwest is truly a blessing for the empire. But I believe that this is also a rare opportunity. After careful consideration with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the Northwest, we believe that we should advance into the Northern Wilderness and carry out large-scale development there. The preliminary plan is now presented to Your Majesty.”

“Regarding the marching route, we cannot be blind. According to reliable intelligence, although the terrain in the Northern Wilderness is complex, there are several relatively hidden and safe passages. These passages may be narrow gaps between valleys, or paths in the forest. We can use information provided by tribes dissatisfied with the orcs, and even support them to start conflicts with the orcs, thereby reducing our pressure.”

“And the large-scale development of the Northern Wilderness is the top priority of this operation. Once we successfully advance, we must quickly start development work. The Northern Wilderness is rich in mineral resources, and those minerals buried deep underground are excellent materials for creating magical props and advanced weapons.

We can send professional mining teams to carry out mining under the protection of the army. The forests in the wilderness,

are vast in area, and wood resources are inexhaustible. We can establish logging yards in suitable places to provide sufficient raw materials for the empire's construction and manufacturing industries.

There is also that fertile land, although it is currently barren, but as long as it is cultivated and planted with food crops and cash crops, it will surely bring rich benefits to the empire.”

“In order to better manage the new territory, we can formulate a sound enfeoffment system. Confer titles on those capable and meritorious nobles, allowing them to establish territories in the Northern Wilderness and develop their own forces.

But at the same time, we must strengthen the central control over these territories, stipulate their rights and obligations, and prevent the emergence of separatist situations. In this way, we can not only alleviate the conflicts between nobles in the country, but also cultivate new forces for the empire.”

After reading the letter, Gustav fell into deep thought,

The implementation of this plan is extremely difficult, but he also saw the huge potential and opportunities it contained. This might really lead the empire to a new era of glory.

Silence spread in the hall. Gustav held the letter in his hand, his expression solemn, as if weighing the pros and cons. of it.

After a long time, he carefully put away the letter, his eyes revealing a decision made after careful consideration. This matter concerns the future direction of the empire and must not be taken lightly.

He decided to return to the bedroom later and summon Rheinsky, Neumann, and several other trusted and resourceful ministers to jointly discuss the feasibility of this plan to advance into the Northern Wilderness and carry out large-scale development.

The afterglow of the conference still echoed in the air. Gustav and several important ministers walked towards the bedroom while talking in low voices.

Their expressions were serious, still immersed in the content they had just discussed, everyone thinking about the possible impacts and challenges of this plan. However, when they arrived in front of the bedroom, they saw an unexpected scene—Empress Dowager Aifeina and Grand Princess Meilin came to visit one after another and were already waiting in front of the palace gate.

This sudden scene surprised Gustav very much, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

At this special moment, the arrival of the Empress Dowager and the Grand Princess seemed somewhat unusual.

A trace of doubt arose in Gustav's heart. He knew that the Empress Dowager would never come for no reason, especially during such a busy time with political affairs.
