MTL - Heart of Empire-Chapter 477 Oasis Plan (2 in 1)
Today, Dane doesn't look at those cowardly warlords.
It is precisely for this reason that he did not make this expedition. Although the legion was very large, he did not lead the army in the way of normal marching. On this way, he did not seem to be leading the army, but was just visiting the territory.
Yes, Dane is actually visiting the territory.
To be honest, in the war two years ago, there was only one place in the entire area of Hindlerell that was not affected by the fire: from the area of White Wolf Castle to the Beast Blood Castle.
At that time, when Governor Kangli ’s northern army was the most powerful, he once hit the city of the Beastblood, but after all, he was unable to break the Beastblood; when Conley himself led the demon legion south, It was eventually intercepted before White Wolf Castle.
In this way, Conley's south-to-east offensive has all hit the core area of Dane and Ozer, but in the end they all passed, which formed the area from Dion's core power to the blood castle. Area of peace.
There is nothing special about this place. There is no difference from other land in Schindler. There is a bit of minerals, but it is not very rich; there are some oasis farms, but it is far from rich.
Of course, it is not barren. On this way, there are still three or four small towns, and there are scattered villages. The total population is estimated to be 50,000 to 100,000, and the population of this area is estimated to be nearly 200,000, including the population of the beast blood castle.
In this area, Dane is a little strange; the people on this land are also a little strange to the new king.
Dean hopes to strengthen control of this land by visiting this strange territory that has never received his direct rule through the name of the King ’s expedition.
What came with the army was not only soldiers, but also many administrative staff. They will go deep into this vast land from White Wolf Castle to Beast Blood Castle to learn more about the situation in this area.
In two months, it is actually enough for some officials with certain administrative experience and even students who have systematically learned relevant knowledge at the University of Hindler to complete a survey.
These investigations have now been compiled into corresponding information, and the summary and suggestions written by the administrative officials have been attached to Dane. This will help His Majesty the King to formulate corresponding exhibition plans and management methods for this area.
Dane is discussing this with Verina now. One problem with concentration is whether this small area should be set up as a separate administrative area, or should it be separated and merged into the beast blood castle and the white wolf castle?
"... both plans have their own advantages." At night, Verina sat down before Dane's march account and carefully analyzed the situation to Her Majesty the King. And on the low table between the two of them, a pile of filled papers were placed in an orderly manner, turning with Verina's explanation.
"If we build a new administrative area, then it is clear that we can better grasp the local exhibition situation and make more suitable exhibition plans according to local conditions. Moreover, the newly established administrative area will definitely be able to be located in a place lacking large cities , Which gave birth to a prefecture center. Moreover, the regional government is nearby, which is also very good for local government management. "
"But the establishment of an entire new administrative district will inevitably make our government structure more bloated. We need to deploy a full set of administrative officials to manage the new administrative district. This is a challenge for the training of our administrative staff."
"We need to supplement government officials for the recovery of Ice Grotto and the Beastblood. Cinderella in the reconstruction also needs manpower. Although we now have administrative and business subjects at the University of Hindler, as a talent base, trainees They are indeed very good, but after all, they lack experience and need to be tempered, and they cannot be in charge immediately. "
"And if we choose to divide this area into White Wolf Castle and Animal Blood Castle, the administrative pressure will not be so great."
"After all, White Wolf Castle and Beast Blood Castle are both the largest cities in the kingdom. With these two cities as the lead, this area can also get new exhibition momentum."
"However, in this way, it will be difficult for this area to show its location advantage, and it will be difficult to find a most suitable exhibition path according to its natural environmental conditions."
Verina told Dane what kind of way to manage this area. These things were not what she had come up with alone, but her entire staff team, who sorted out these two months' time, surveyed and heard in this area, and wrote the contents.
From the perspective of Verina, she hopes to divide this area into the White Wolf Castle and the Beast Blood Castle. In this way, administrative pressure will be much less. But it also lost the opportunity to let a territory with some potential show its advantages alone.
Therefore, she was very entangled and could only throw the question to Dane. Anyway, Dane was the real king, and such a major event could only be made by His Majesty the King.
Dean also felt a headache. After thinking about it for a while, he made the final decision: "Let ’s do this. Let ’s build the district independently. I saw in your survey that there are many stars here Oasis. Looking back, I mobilized some of the druids from Comilla, and then united with our mage to see if I could expand the area of the oasis. "
"Especially some oasis that are close together. We connect them together and find a way to get some big farms. I hope that in this way, we can create a big granary in our country."
"Only if we really have the grain in our hands, can we be able to get rid of it further and continue to show!"
This is what Dion has always thought.
Hindler is not incapable of producing food, and the oasis farms are productive. However, we can see from the map that the vast land of Schindler is yellow, and green represents the oasis, and there are very few. How can we support so many people with limited output?
Actually, it's much better now. After all, White Wolf Castle's system base can directly build reliable farms around White Wolf Castle. In Cormia, relying on the Moonwell Farms around Orineldo and Sandauole to grow low-light crops with a large number of cavemen, the output is not small, which largely makes up for some food gaps.
Without these food subsidies, Dane couldn't afford such a huge army. In fact, even with these subsidies, fights are often too stretched, and they have to pay a high price to pay for transportation and profits, importing food from Charles 6, and from the Count of Bulls in the Duchy of Florence.
After trying every means, Dane could have enough food to maintain a huge army.
But now that Hindler is independent, Dane has to manage more than just the southern border.
He will be king, and he will be a king. This is glory, status, and responsibility. He is the king of Hindler, responsible for everyone at Hindler. At the very least, he couldn't make his people hungry.
But judging from the current situation, if he wants the people of Hindler to have the most basic food security, relying on the food production of Comilla and the food output of Hindler is not enough. .
Must rely on trade imports.
Then this is a very **** thing. Dane must be very clear about how dangerous the country's rations depend on imports. Of course, if he had a bad relationship with the Duchy of Florence, he could get food from the Shire, and vice versa.
But what if the two sides are at the same time?
By then, Dane would have no choice but to be forced to wage war against the Principality of Florence, and to win quickly and plunder enough food.
Otherwise, his kingdom will collapse. People who lack food will be pushed to the point where they have to resist his rule, which will directly shake the foundation of his rule.
Dane has been trying to solve this problem, but it has been difficult to find a solution.
And this time, a detailed investigation of the land between White Wolf Castle and Beast Blood Castle gave Dawn a glimmer of dawn.
Verina's eyes also brightened, she said, "Your Majesty, this is a very good idea! This matter will directly solve a huge hidden danger we are currently facing. After we do not need to import food, we will Saving a lot of wealth can be used in other aspects of national construction. And, most importantly, our strategic security environment will be greatly improved! "
Her expression was very excited, but she calmed down again quickly: "But ... the casters have amazing powers, yes, and the druids are experts in improving the environment, but ... in the desert. Can a large project succeed? "
Dion shrugged and said, "I don't know if it will succeed. But there is no doubt that it is worth trying. Even if it is not successful, establish an independent administrative area directly on the area. Is not an unacceptable thing, why not do it? "
"Okay," said the woman, "then, Your Majesty, I hope this matter can be promoted as soon as possible."
"No problem. I will distribute half of the army mages into your hands, and Eastlin will cooperate with you. The construction of the administrative district can begin now, and the research of the mages is the same. At the same time, Colmy The Druids of Asia will arrive in this area within a month, and I hope that you will be effective in this matter as soon as possible. "
"Observe your orders, my majesty." Verina stood up, gave a gift, and then retired.
The next day, the army continued to advance. Verina stayed here.
Beside her, more than a thousand soldiers in the garrison, as well as more than two hundred mages led by Eastlin, plus some administrative staff. She will be reviewing the administrative plan of the area named "Oasis County" as a relative, and will put on the agenda the work plan to improve the soil environment, connect the oasis, and create large farms.
For such an important job, except for the actress and cavalry who have the ability to supervise Dane, he cannot rest assured that anyone will do it.
As for himself, he inspected the territory and completed the investigation of Oasis County. The Oasis plan was also supervised by Velina himself. After he did n’t have to worry much, he could finally turn his sight back to the army's expedition Target-Beast Blood Castle.
...
On November 14th, after the army had been on the road for almost two months, four main corps consisting of more than 30,000 people and a 20,000-strong defensive corps had reached the city of the Beast Blood Castle.
Before Dane led the army to the city, he saw the gate of the towering Beastblood, which was now open in the direction facing him.
Before the gate of the city ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ Thousands of people stood in the wilderness, and were silently bearing the sand. Among these people are soldiers, officers, and civilians.
Without stopping, Dion led an army of tens of thousands of people forward, and went directly to the gate of the Beast Blood Castle.
He saw a familiar face: Bevin.
This man with the nickname "Condor" once visited Dawon on behalf of Governor Ozer when he first obtained White Wolf Castle. At the time, he had some unpleasantness with Dane, but was eventually convinced by Dane.
He is one of the warlords and officers of the Beastblood, and he is rarely inclined to Dane. But in the previous two years, his status has not been high, he was suppressed in the beast blood castle, and only recently turned over.
The reason he was able to turn over was entirely because of Dane.
When King Dion's power was invincible at Hindler, the smarter man naturally understood that if he continued to fight against Dion, who had shown the momentum of unity in the country, it must be a dead end. The original centrists soon fell to the pro-Dionists. Later, after Dyne's ultimatum came out, some people who used to oppose the acceptance of Dion's rule were shaken.
Just a week ago, when Dyne's army was approaching slowly, ‘Condor’ Beaver finally gained a complete advantage in the Beast Blood Fortress, and a military coup drew directly.
The military coup lasted for almost a week and did not completely calm down until yesterday.
At this moment, Bevan has completely controlled the blood castle. On the day when Dane personally arrived at the Beast Blood Castle, he moved the entire city to meet the requirements of the King ’s final notice two months ago.
At the same time, the heads of 23 senior officials opposed to reunification, as well as the bodies of more than 700 followers, were all placed at the gate of the Beast Blood Castle.
