Tales of the Reincarnated Lord

Chapter 428: News of the Sword Saint

"Sit down, is it raining heavily outside?" Lorester said to Fatty Shi who walked into the study, sitting comfortably on the chair. After a busy winter, all the refugees were finally forced to move to places where they were temporarily prepared for resettlement, and before the rainy season came, they returned to the capital city of Angry Bear in the southern Northland. After being entangled with Princess Silvia for a long time like a newly-married couple for several days, Lorist finally remembered that he should deal with business...

"What do you mean? What I hate most is the rainy season. This kind of continuous rainy days, even if you don’t get caught in the rain, you still feel wet and moldy. When I think of it, I will have it for twenty days. It feels like going crazy." Fatty Shi walked to the burning fireplace while complaining, as if to dry his body.

After Fatty Shi felt his whole body warm and sat on the sofa and ordered Genorio to give him a bottle of fruit wine, he remembered Swarder, and asked Lorist, "Hey, how is Sward now? The practice is pretty good, right."

Lorist nodded: "Well, Reddy has gone to see him in Rock Castle, and he will be able to leave the customs in half a year. Before returning to the border of the southern province, Bodfinger told me that Schward would let him as soon as he left the border. Immediately marry the baby daughter of Earl Felim. Seeing that there is only one Principality of Handra in the four central duchy, Earl Felim will become the Grand Duke of the Southern Province as soon as the strategy is reached. Bodfinger is also anxious and a little worried about Filip After Earl Lim was promoted to Duke, he would look down on his little baron’s family background, which would make Sward’s marriage change.

"Haha, is Bodfinger confused when he gets older? What's there to worry about." Fatty Shi was very immoral behind his back: "Earl Philim is promoted to Duke, but we still have to rely on our Norton family. . Without the support and material assistance we gave him, can he develop the family territory and defend the southern province? If the Rock Legion is really withdrawn, I guarantee that he will sleep with one eye open, really like that and Fei Sablon Is the armistice agreement signed by the family a guarantee of peace? Once the Border Rangers arrive at the city, he will be finished."

Fatty Shi is telling the truth, and the facts are true. Even if Earl Felim is promoted to duke after the demise of the four central duchy, he still has to be the leader of the Norton family. If you really put aside the four Northland alliances, you will surely be eye-catching. The Fei Sablon family swallowed them all.

"But it's time for Swarder to start a family. Catalina is a good girl and she is a good match for Swarder. The two have a good relationship. After Swarder left customs this time, I decided to let them start a family first." Riester said. Taking out the fruit wine brought by Genorio, he took a sip and asked, "Are those new immigrants okay?"

The number of refugees who were forced to relocate to the Northland from the Fakel Principality this time is 230,000, and the total number of immigrants from the Principality of Sabaki has exceeded 400,000, which means that the entire population of the Northland now The number has exceeded two million.

"Fortunately, there were no incidents and riots. Even the last group of captives from the hills and mountains of Pedro was safe and did not cause us any trouble." Fatty Shi saw Lorist and talked about business. Look for related files in the folders you carry with you.

Speaking of the group of mountain captives in the hills of Pedro, Lorist made a "hum" from his nose very uncomfortably: "These mountain captives must be closely guarded. Their temperament is really unbelievable. Shun. Do you know that when we finally surrounded the hot spring valley and left them at a desperate situation, we even dared to take up arms and continue to resist, causing us more than a thousand casualties of family soldiers. Forcing me to transfer the steel from Malek The crossbow regiment used long-range shooting to wipe out most of its young men before letting them lay down their weapons and surrender to us.

Just like the mountain legion of the Principality of Forando, we have already surrounded the garrison. Even their commander, the golden knight named Sanminuoli, died under the sword of Bodfinger, but these mountain soldiers are still there. Relying on the cover of the camp wall, they refused to surrender, and finally had to set fire to drive them out of the camp to be killed. In such a desperate situation, a mountain army of more than 30,000 people killed more than 18,000 people, and the tens of thousands of Yu Shanmin soldiers we captured returned wounded everyone. So I have ordered that the soldiers of this mountain regiment and those captives of the mountain people will have eight years of hard labor, and they will be free after eight years..."

"Eight years? Hmm, your Highness, are you not going to enlist these mountain people captives into the family armed forces? It stands to reason that mountain people with such a personality are good candidates for conscription?" Fat Shi was a little strange.

Lorist shook his head: "These mountain people have a particularly unhappy personality, and they have always been loyal to the Principality of Frondo, and they are proud of being a child of the Frondo family. The Frondo family has treated the mountain people for more than 100 years. You don’t know that for more than a hundred years, the mountain people have only paid one tax, that is, the blood tax, to serve as soldiers for the Frondo family. And the Frondo family also repays their favors to bring Pedro’s hills and mountains. Divided into the settlement area of ​​mountain people, let them develop freely. Therefore, the loyalty of these mountain people to the Frondo family is inscribed in their bones. They are not like those soldiers who served as soldiers in other families or forces in order to earn a living. It is difficult to change the object of allegiance..."

Fatty Shi nodded. Now that he knew the reason, he didn't plan to spend any thoughts on these tens of thousands of mountain people captives. After eight years of labor, these mountain people should also know how good or bad they are, and will naturally arrange for them to integrate into the family territory. He took out a document and said to Lorist: "His Royal Highness, the resettlement plan for the newly displaced refugees has been released. Would you like to take a look?"

Lorist held the wine glass and said, "You can just talk about it, and I will sign and implement the plan if it is almost the same."

"Okay." Fatty Shi cleared his throat and looked at the document and read: "The refugees who have migrated to Windbury King City this time are 2,871 households, with a total number of 98,230. Sixteen people, most of them craftsmen and small businessmen, we have arranged houses and courtyards facing the street for them to open shops and handicraft workshops. When they settle down, the economy of Windbury King City will be improved in the second half of this year. A major breakthrough development, Windbury King City is expected to become a livestock trading and leather product processing center in the Northeast starting next year.

The total number of refugees migrating to the Northland is more than 360,000. They are not going to be resettled in the three newly developed sites in the southern part of the Northland. Kangtaiyuan. As for the completed construction of Pingfengyuan, Ping'anyuan and Pingkangyuan in the southern part of the Northland, because they are located in the capital city of Angry Bear City, the family decided to choose some loyal leading families from Fengleyuan, Xing'anyuan and Hongheyuan. After emigrating, most of the remaining will be allocated to soldiers who are about to retire in the past three years to start a family in these three originals.

In addition, 100 refugee families with a total of more than 13,000 people were allocated to the vassal territories under the family to develop the economy and village construction in the vassal family territories. This is the basic distribution plan. After the rainy season, we will transport these new immigrants to the assigned place to allocate land and house for them, and strive to complete the resettlement before August. Your Highness, do you see anything else that needs to be revised? "

Lorist thought for a while and said: "Just so, this plan is very good, no need to modify. Take it over and sign it for the people below to implement it."

While Lorist was signing, Fatty Shi took out another document: "His Royal Highness, this is the report submitted by Master Sid at the end of last year. The report says that he has successfully trial-produced a new cavalry individual with spring steel. The use of crossbows has greatly reduced the cost. From the report, the cost of a crossbow is currently only seven gold ford plus eight big silver coins. I granted him a special fund of three thousand gold ford, request He reduced the cost of the crossbow to less than five Jinfords and formed mass production capacity..."

Lorist was very happy: "This time the standard ranged weapons of the Cavalry Corps finally have a clue to solve. But do you know the range, power, firing speed and frequency of the crossbow?"

Fatty Shi sweats profusely: "His Royal Highness, I don't know, I just worry about the cost... The price of a strong crossbow is between two goldfords and three goldfords. I think the range of the crossbow is at least more powerful than the strong crossbow. To double the power of the longbow, it is still acceptable to double the cost price..."

Lorist raised the report from Master Sid in Yang's hand: "It is not written on it. It seems that Master Sid wants to keep it secret. Let's send a letter to Josk and ask him to select a hundred loyalists in the Cavalry Corps. Reliable elite light cavalry, after the rainy season, go to Master Sid to conduct actual combat tests on this crossbow to facilitate the finalization of this crossbow. After all, it is a weapon for actual combat, and these light cavalry have the most say. In addition, there is no need to be too demanding on the price, so as not to affect the quality."

"Okay, I see." Fatty Shi replied.

Then they talked about a few more things, and heard a knock on the door, Genorio came in and reported: "Your Highness, Master Tagore is here."

Tagle came here this time to send a summary of the information on the battle between the Ford Business Alliance and the Central South Kingdom’s coalition forces to Lorist. Although Lorist was on the front line of the Four Central Principalities last year, he also knew in bits and pieces that he had obtained some mainland China. Most of the events of the Southern War were sent by letter eagles, and the news was extremely brief. Now when I returned to Angry Bear City, I told Tagore to send all the newspapers and intelligence he got from Morente City.

Tagle approached the study with a pile of newspapers that were half a person tall. This was basically seven or eight newspapers published in Morient last year. After putting down the pile of newspapers, Tagle handed Lorester a folder: "His Royal Highness, this is the summary and intelligence summary of these newspapers."

Lorist took the folder, and just opened his eyes, he jumped in shock: "What, that the destroyed Storm Sword Saint of the Kingdom of Keliya entered the city of Morient?"

Fatty Shi was taken aback by Lorist's actions: "What did you say?"

Tagger smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness, I have already reported this to you on the Falcon Transmission..."

Lorist said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Tagore. At that time, I was concerned about the intelligence of the four principalities in Central China. I didn't pay attention to this."

Tagger looked for a dozen newspapers, and found out more than a dozen newspapers: "His Royal Highness, the detailed reports about this Storm Swordmaster of the Kingdom of Keliya accepting the invitation of the Ford Business Alliance to go to Morient City are in these ten. Several newspapers. However, this Storm Swordsman is relatively low-key, and after being interviewed at a banquet organized by the Business Alliance on the first day he arrived, he was unable to live in seclusion. The law enforcement agencies of the Business Alliance were also very cooperative to not let those newspapers continue. Follow up the report. So this matter has not caused much disturbance except for more than half a month, but the morale of the front-line business alliance troops has increased a lot because of the support of a Juggernaut..."

Fatty Shi was already flipping through the dozens of newspapers quickly, but soon he became a little frustrated: "The newspaper only published the legendary deeds of this Storm Swordmaster, but it did not know how the Kingdom of Keliya died and why Leaving and his acceptance of the invitation of the Commercial Alliance did not mention a word, and the commercial alliance paid the price to let the Storm Sword Saint settle in Morient City. It was a **** report."

Lorist pondered for a while, and the entry of the Stormwind Swordmaster into Morient City meant that the Ford Business Alliance had a town nation Swordmaster, and he was determined to recover from the business alliance those lost in the territory of the former Christen Empire. According to the Second Royal Highness of the province, this almost raised the difficulty of game clearance from the difficult level to the **** level. I believe that His Highness will not look good when he knows this news. But for the Norton family, the impact of this news is not big, after all, they are too far apart.

However, at what price did the Commercial Alliance pay to hire the Storm Sword Saint Lorist, I am very interested: "You said, if the Second Highness wants to hire this Storm Sword Saint, what price will he be willing to pay?"

What's the matter with His Highness Guan Er? Fatty Shi and Tagel were in a daze. However, since Lorist asked, the two still answered as much as possible.

Tagger said: "At least one hundred thousand Golden Ford will be worshipped a year. In addition, he must choose a place to establish a dojo for him to inherit swordsmanship..."

Fatty Shi shook his head and said, "More than ~www.readwn.com~ Your condition is no different from that of Storm Swordmaster when he was in the Kingdom of Keliya. If the Second Royal Highness wants to recruit this Swordmaster, he will have to give him a province as a family. Territory, named him Duke of Territory."

Lorist laughed: "It should be roughly the same, but it is not good news for our King that the Commercial Alliance can recruit the Storm Swordmaster. You know that he has always linked the pre-unification empire. On the lips, I really want to see his face after knowing this news. Even if the four principalities of Central China perish, he will face the pressure of a giant business alliance. I don’t think I will think of it in the next few years. Before how to deal with the Storm Sword Saint, our King will stop a bit, and will not continue to toss.

After the rainy season, I will soon bring the Flying Tigers back to the front of the four principalities in central China. Although there is only one Principality of Handra left, it has concentrated the armed forces of the four principalities and coupled with the restrictions of the terrain. The battle is not easy to fight, and it may take another year. Things in the family get rid of you. Tagger, pay attention to collecting more information on the battles between the business alliance and the Central South Kingdom. If there is any major event or change, it will be passed to me immediately. "

"Understood, Your Highness." Tagle bowed and replied.
