Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

The ministers left behind by Emperor Gustav were truly worthy of being called the pillar of the empire.

Each of them had cultivated their respective fields for many years, possessing experience and wisdom that others could hardly match.

In military and state affairs, they truly shared a great deal of pressure for Sauron and solved countless thorny problems.

Take military affairs as an example.

Minister of Military Affairs, Beryl, was a veteran of many battles, who knew everything about army training, deployment, and combat strategies.

Legion Commander Alfonso took the lead, always ready to lead his soldiers to the front lines, defending the empire's territory with blood and loyalty.

The two men, one resourceful and one brave, complemented each other, building a solid barrier for the empire's military security.

Minister of State Neumann was equally impressive, demonstrating his ability in handling complex state affairs.

Externally, he could skillfully use diplomatic means to maneuver between various forces, attempting to create a favorable external environment for the empire by dividing the Beastman tribes and implementing trade sanctions, avoiding a desperate situation of being attacked from all sides.

Internally, he coordinated resources from all parties to ensure close cooperation between various departments, allowing the empire's massive machine to operate in an orderly manner in times of crisis.

Minister of Special Affairs, Reineski, and Minister of Finance, Horns, were also indispensable.

Reineski deeply understood the critical role of logistics in the victory or defeat of war, expanding the output of the imperial military equipment, allowing the empire's legions to complete their updates, and even producing a weakened version of the magic cannon.

Although its power was inferior to the magic cannon Sauron purchased from the higher plane, its rate of fire was much faster, greatly increasing the combat effectiveness of the imperial legions, while also creating an efficient early warning system, allowing the empire to foresee the enemy's movements in advance and be prepared.

Horns, although facing the huge problem of tight finances, still tried to find ways to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, providing sufficient financial support for various military constructions and diplomatic operations by reasonably adjusting financial expenditures and levying taxes on capable merchants and nobles, ensuring the smooth implementation of various measures to deal with the crisis.

Sauron was quite insightful in making money, whether it was establishing a points and magic crystal trade system, or skillfully using wealth to buy people's hearts and consolidate the imperial power, all of which showed his extraordinary business acumen and ability to control the economy.

However, in the two major areas of military and state affairs, which are related to the foundation of the empire, he seemed a little stretched compared to these experienced ministers.

After all, his previous energy was more focused on the internal power struggles of the royal family and the management of some economic affairs.

He lacked practical experience in commanding large-scale military operations and coordinating complex state affairs.

Fortunately, Sauron knew his shortcomings and was very good at listening to the opinions of his ministers.

Soon, a plan was made.

Alfonso was personally stationed in the northwest, and Sauron was very relieved.

Alfonso was now at the peak of the eighth rank.

After going to the northwest, he could also plan to attack the Holy rank.

He believed that good news would be reported back soon.

Sauron dragged his slightly tired body and had just stepped into the bedroom, and before he had time to sit down and rest, a servant hurried to report that Empress Mariasha had returned to the palace and summoned him to go to Mariasha Palace immediately.

Hearing this news, Sauron's originally tired expression instantly dissipated, and a hint of surprise and expectation surged in his eyes.

He immediately hurried towards Mariasha Palace.

Mariasha Palace was as elegant and luxurious as ever.

Candles flickered in the palace, and the light and shadow danced on the walls, as if adding a bit of warmth to the upcoming reunion.

As soon as Sauron stepped into the palace gate, Empress Mariasha greeted him.

When their eyes met, thousands of words seemed to be frozen in their throats at this moment.

The next moment, the two could not help but hug each other, as if to integrate the thoughts of these days of separation into this tight embrace.

Immediately afterwards, the two, unable to restrain their emotions, kissed passionately.

Between their lips and teeth, there was full of affection and love.

For a time, the entire palace seemed to be filled with this fiery love, and the surrounding air seemed to become sweet and thick.

After a long time, their lips parted, and Empress Mariasha gasped slightly, with an uncontrollable smile on her face.

She looked up at Sauron, her eyes flashing with excitement, and said impatiently: "Erin has broken through to the Holy rank."

In that tone, there was both sincere joy for Erin's breakthrough and a hint of eagerness to share the good news with Sauron.

Sauron was stunned at first, and then a bright smile bloomed on his face, his eyes full of surprise: "This is really great news!

Erin's talent was already good.

Now that she has broken through to the Holy rank, it is undoubtedly like adding wings to a tiger for us."

In the current situation of internal and external troubles, every Holy rank powerhouse is an extremely valuable force.

Erin's breakthrough means that there is another powerful guarantee for our camp, whether it is dealing with the army of the border king or guarding against possible invasions by the Beastmen and the island continent, there is more confidence.

Empress Mariasha nodded gently, took Sauron's hand and walked to the soft couch next to her to sit down, leaning against Sauron's arms while saying in detail: "Yes, Erin has been practicing hard in seclusion these days, and it is finally worth the effort.

When she broke through, the magic power surged, and the entire magic tower was shrouded in light, and the momentum was extremely vast.

Her current strength has undergone a qualitative leap compared to the past, but it still needs a period of time to consolidate."

Sauron gently put his arms around Empress Mariasha's shoulders, his eyes showing relief and expectation: "That's great.

When I find an opportunity, I must have a good chat with Erin to see what level her abilities have reached after the breakthrough, so that I can make some plans in advance and let her power play the greatest role at this critical time."

At this moment, he was already planning how to use Erin, this new Holy rank powerhouse, to deal with the complicated situation in front of him.

Empress Mariasha looked up slightly, looked at Sauron, her eyes full of trust and love: "Well, I will listen to your arrangements.

I believe that with everyone working together, we will be able to overcome these difficulties in front of us and protect our empire."

After saying that, she leaned closer to Sauron's arms, as if as long as she leaned on his side, there was nothing to be afraid of.
