Warhammer Throne
Vol 2 Chapter 682: , Duke Conference
ps: I would like to ask everyone to vote for a monthly pass during the double monthly pass. The emperor is here to thank you. I will do everything.
"Yes, Ryan, your hunch is right. The situation is indeed not right." Francois nodded, and the old man looked at his son-in-law standing in front of the sand table and the daughter who had just walked in from outside, his face A thoughtful expression appeared: "This is also the focus of our argument."
"That is, even if there is a slight strategic error and insufficient preparation, it is still abnormal for Kislov to lose more than 20,000 people." Lawn also nodded, and the Kingdom Regent came before the sand table: " We were arguing before, because according to Voroshilov’s play, he was just too aggressive and too trusting the power of the bear cavalry, but in general, with superior strength and a large number of firearms, this There are still many doubts about the battle.
"The casualties are too great." Ryan looked at the flag on the sand table. "I think I can understand why Voroshilov insisted on fighting. The reason is very simple. In the process of attacking Ostrowsk, Kislov has already Lost more than 10,000 people, and paid such a huge price. If you only wiped out more than a thousand barbarians and won a fortress, there is no way to explain it, so instead of giving up like this, it is better to go for it, even if you pay a huge price. In order to drive these barbarians out of the troll kingdom, at least after this battle, the Belsonians must not dare to cross the mountains."
"Yes, that's right." Birchmond nodded, and the Duke of Red Dragon always frowned. "But the problem is, no matter how we deduce, how to underestimate Voroshilov's commanding ability and overestimate the tactical level of the barbarians Kislov’s army is still unlikely to pay more than 20,000 casualties. Too many. This army is the elite of the former tsar Boris Bokaha! It’s almost impossible to imagine such a loss!"
"So there can only be two explanations. The first is that Kislov lied to the casualties, and the second is that the northern barbarians who believed in chaos became stronger." Ryan nodded, knowing that Francois and others The meaning of the words: "Kislov has no reason to lie about such high casualties. The only explanation is that the northern barbarians have become stronger, they have been blessed by the evil god, and the wind of chaos from the chaotic wilderness of the extreme north is Blowing through the world, the Kurgans, Hungarians, Mongolians, and Noskas are all preparing to wait for a true chaotic eternal **** to lead them south."
"No, it's impossible!" Dade Leonard, Duke of Leonsay said aloud: "It's impossible, the great jihad is more than one hundred and sixty years! The last chaos eternal selection "anointed" Isa Cuval Just died for a few years? How could a new eternal **** be born so quickly?"
"There is nothing impossible." The wrinkles on Boderick's face, Duke of Bordeaux, are all huddled together: "Don't forget, there is no concept of time in the realm of chaos, as long as there are chaotic clutter that can pass the test of the evil god, then If you can become the eternal selection, maybe the eternal selection will not appear for hundreds of years, maybe two in ten years. Adaihad, don’t use reason and common sense to infer chaos."
"Sorry, the northern coast of Lyonnais has recently been infested by the longship of Nosca. If it’s not yours, what kind of relatives took an entire pirate fleet to plunder the Nosca coast all day, plundering a lot of gold and silver ore, Lyon. Nasser may have been a pot of porridge." Duke Adehard was only fifty years old this year, and he was young among the dukes. He covered his head with a headache: "I have to say that these pirates shot It’s really generous, but every time they dock, I have to worry about the law and order."
"Are you talking about salt resentment? Elena Sa-Saltwater Hatred has never been my relative, never is, she is just... the daughter of Poseidon Mannan!" Bo Derek shouted with dissatisfaction. The ten-year-old Duke came to think of it and said, "I just received the Oracle, and Mannan's will made me recommend her to you."
"Oh, yes, Mannan, the **** Poseidon, a child who got pregnant with the wife of the chief of the Nosca Barbarian." Birchmond said with dissatisfaction: "The entire kingdom is yours. Trust Mannan, and ask me to say that the female pirate is not to be trusted. She is just for revenge. God knows that if her revenge is over, will she turn her head and point the finger at us?"
"Oh, dear Birchmond, even if one day, do we kill those Noskanes one day?" Bo Derek mocked Birchmond's short-sightedness: "Someday, salt resentment It’s too late to be happy to kill the Nosca."
"Okay, don't quarrel." Ryan finally spoke, and he said to Birchmond: "In any case, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, Elena Sa-Saltwater Hatred has destroyed North along the way over the years. Ka has more than twenty coastal fishing villages and strongholds. In this regard alone, the benefits she brings to us are far greater than the disadvantages. Bodrick is right, even if it is Charlemagne and the savior Ludwig. Hope, at most, they attacked and destroyed the coastal villages and ports of Nosca. No large army dared to go deep into the interior of Nosca. The Nosca could not be killed."
"I agree with Ryan's proposal that since the Nosca can't be wiped out, let the female pirate vigorously plunder and destroy it." Lawn also agreed with Ryan's opinion, and the Kingdom Regent looked at the table. Sand table, said to everyone: "At present, our information is still limited. No matter how you guess, the result of this winter war is like this. After so long, we have forgotten the purpose of coming here."
"Oh, yes, that's right." Birchmond woke up like a dream, and he said, "I forgot, we came here to ask Ryan about the serfdom redemption system."
"Yes, Ryan, you can always surprise us." Ron sat down, with recollection and sentiment in his eyes: "Remember the scene when we met on Scaville Mountain?"
"Of course, I still remember that at that time I finally hacked a four-armed bull demon and was seriously injured, and you were riding an elf war horse that made me drool. I really wanted to rob you." Lane said with a smile.
"You are such an asshole." Lawn smiled and said no more: "A great asshole."
"Thanks for the compliment." Lane and Suria smiled at each other, and Duke Musilon coughed a few times and said to the Duke: "I know, you have a lot of questions and opinions about the system of redemption of the serf household registration, it's okay, we have a little Come on."
"Okay." Aside from Francois, several Dukes were waiting for this. When they heard Ryan's words, everyone nodded. Suria, as the hostess, clapped her hands. The outside servants and servants immediately came in and will The sand table was lifted away, and the people took their seats.
"Now, let's talk about the system of the redemption of the serf household registration." Lane took Suria and sat down, leaving the five Dukes in order. Duke Bodrick was the most eager to try, and Dade Adehard was full of face Both are unspeakable, the expressions of Duke Raun and Duke of Birchmond can't help but look forward to, and hesitate. As for Francois, this old guy sat proudly next to Surya, and he didn't want to talk, and Ryan felt old. People estimate how much more money can be left in their vaults.
There was a temporary silence in the conference hall. In the end, as expected by Ryan, Bo Derek, Duke of Bordeaux, first asked: "Ryan, I have read your system of redemption of the serf household registration, I think there is no problem, I I also plan to start experimenting with this system in Boldro. When will you send someone to guide us?"
"At any time, as long as you need it," Ryan nodded and said with a smile: "If Lord Bodrick is really uneasy, you can let Fredmond visit my territory once."
"Very well, when I'll go back after the meeting, I will immediately let Federmond come." Bo Derek was eager to try.
Suria today wore a **** sugar wood grain brown fragrant classical black lace dress with black velvet thick pantyhose and over-the-knee high-heeled boots. The Duchess looked at Bo Derek's eagerness to try, thinking of this Bol It was normal for the Duke of Dro to be so interested in the system of redemption of the serf household registration.
The Principality of Boldro is one of the smallest principalities in the Kingdom of Brittany. The total area is only equivalent to the area when Ryan has just recovered Musilon and has not yet taken back the old Musilon collar in the south of Lyons. Slightly larger, and for historical reasons, the Duke of Poldro has always believed in the sea **** Mannan and the fairy in the lake, which led to the serf system not being particularly thorough in Poldro, the worship of the inland area of Poldro The fairies in the lake, and the coastal area, the sea **** Mannan obviously occupies more faith. Although the sea **** knights also follow the knighthood, they are not as rigid as Brittania. The sea **** knights generally think that the lake fairies give cloth The land of Letania stops at the place where the river water turns into sea water. There are not many of them in the Poseidon Knights, but they always get huge benefits from the ocean.
Therefore, before the arrival of Len, Boldero was the most commercialized and industrialized region in Brittania. The dry dock in Mannan is also the only port in the entire Knight Kingdom capable of manufacturing large artillery warships.
More people and less land, developed business and industry, plus since the arrival of Ryan, Boldro and Marienburg have opened up trade routes, and high elves, ashes, lizardmen, and Estalia have all been opened. Trade routes and the huge dividends brought by trade have caused many sailors on the port of Portero to accumulate a lot of wealth. The vault of the Duke of Portero is also full of gold.
In the same way, Ryan took Duke Boldero as the focus of his recruitment shortly after he arrived in Brittania. The reason is very simple. The Poseidon fleet owned by Bo Derek is the only blue water navy in Brittania. .
The navy has very high costs, huge investment, long time to build the army, and a long payback period. Ryan had no money and no energy before to start a navy from scratch. The reason for choosing Bodrick is Blue Water. The Navy, let alone the Poseidon Fleet and the blessing of Poseidon Mannan.
In recent years, due to the needs of ocean trade and security needs, the Poseidon fleet has continued to expand. The Mannan En dry dock has new warships launched every month, and there are huge orders from the Fuggen Ash Corps, making it soft.
Boldero's question was finished, and Ryan signaled that everyone could ask.
"Ryan, your serfdom redemption system for your serf, I always feel..." The Duke of Bastogne asked Birchmond. As the most orthodox descendant of Arthur, Birchmond brought to the serfdom redemption system The benefits are hot, but there are many concerns deep inside: "I always feel that you are not thinking about the nobles of the kingdom on this issue, but are biased towards serfs."
"That's right." Ryan admitted generously: "I did favor the serf on this issue, but you have also seen the problems before and after the kingdom of Birchmond, we have been decaying constantly, the kingdom Need to change, the serf’s life needs to be changed, and I am not failing to protect your interests. The serfs must pay such a large sum of money to buy their household registration, which is actually not fair to the serfs, but I still want them to pay This sum of money is not my compensation to you?"
As soon as this statement came out, the Dukes present nodded their heads in agreement. Indeed, they had no reasons for fierce opposition. It was the ransom of the serf's ransom. A large ransom could block the mouth of the knights and nobles. After all, like Ryan and Franço There are not many knights and nobles such as Wa, Bo Derek, and Raun with internal affairs capabilities.
"I know what you said." Birchmond hesitated: "But... I mean, money is indeed good, but... if one day, the serfs all paid the ransom and became free people. , Then who will cultivate the land? Can't we go to the land to cultivate?"
"Bercy! What are you thinking out of reality." After Francois heard the black line on his face, the old man didn't wait for Ryan to speak, and directly said: "There are 200,000 serfs in Bastogne, Two hundred thousand households! How many serfs do you think can afford the ransom? Will it affect farming? Furthermore, if all the 200,000 serfs pay the ransom money, it will be 30 million kronor, 30 million gold. Kronor, isn't this money enough for your family to use?"
"But...the money will always be spent one day, but the output of the land is unlimited." Birchmond is still struggling: "If one day the money is spent and there is no serf cultivation in the land, what will happen to the food? What about the Principality?"
"The land is still yours. You can hire people to grow the land, or you can contract it to free people for farming. It’s just that the tax rate is much lower, and you’ve seen the reform of the fixed tax on Ryan. , You don’t have to worry about the land being unpopulated!” François followed. “And you can encourage free people to build new villages and reclaim wasteland. Even if these new lands are not yours, the extra tax is Yours!"
"Wait and wait." Ryan reached out and motioned for François to stop first. He smiled and said to Birchmund: "Lord Birchmond, let's take an example. After the great jihad, the new imperial savior road Do you know the restructuring of Dewig?"
"Well, I know that His Majesty Ludwig said that everyone has the right to be paid for his labor." Birchmond nodded.
"Then the land of the empire is lacking in cultivation now?" Ryan asked in return: "Is there less people wanting to farm? Why can I get 300,000 immigrants from the empire? Why is Karl Franz still having a headache today? Crowded in Braunschweig? Don’t the beggars, sailors, handymen, scavengers in the cities want to beg for life?"
"I get it~www.ltnovel.com~ Ryan, it's really yours, you have convinced me." Boschmond thought for a few minutes, and finally nodded with relief, his face smiled: "OK, I went back and began to prepare for the implementation of this system."
The voice did not fall, and the Kingdom Regent, Ron, who was sitting opposite Ryan, raised his hand to signal that he had something to say: "Ryan, I have a problem."
"Please." Ryan extended his right hand, fingers together, palms up, and made a gesture of raising his hand.
"We all know that the income from growing cash crops must be higher than the income from growing food, such as grapes, sugar cane, rape, olives." Lawn put his fingers on the table, he said seriously: "Let serf become free After the people, they must give priority to the pursuit of income, so it is very likely that most of the free people will grow cash crops, what about food?"
"This is indeed a problem." Ryan nodded: "But I also have a solution."
"Response?" Lawn asked with interest: "What is it?"
"Overall planning."
