From Wild Mage to Wizard King
Chapter 235 Looking East
Due to the special way of fighting the Green Tide by the Locke Resistance, the initial target of the Locke Resistance was an entire warlord territory.
Coupled with the contradiction between the border faction and the local faction of the Locke Resistance Army, the Locke Resistance Army already had some indigestion after swallowing up a planned warlord territory.
If the Locke Resistance Army is a person, then the local faction responsible for logistics and the border faction responsible for combat are human limbs. Even with the coordination of Locke's brain, the limbs are still competing with each other. Therefore, the Locke Resistance Army can only Can limp forward.
After swallowing an entire warlord's territory, even if the border faction wanted to pursue the victory, the local faction, which did not want to invest more resources, would not be willing to provide the logistical supplies to support them in swallowing another warlord's territory.
Therefore, even if Roland kills the green-skinned high priest, causing a warlord territory to fall into chaos because of the loss of the green-skinned warlord, the Locke resistance army will not be able to go south and destroy them while they are weak.
As for Roland's side, since the logistics and military power are firmly controlled by Roland, although the overall strength of Roland's side is not as good as the Locke resistance, they can run forward together.
Coupled with Roland's record of killing the green-skinned high priest, Locke believes that it shouldn't be a big problem for Roland to attack a warlord territory without an green-skinned warlord.
Therefore, combined with Roland's initiative to ask for war, Locke, after thinking for a long time, granted Roland the claim and power to expand eastward.
Now that he has a name and a claim, as well as sufficient military strength, Roland will naturally not let go of this opportunity.
Therefore, less than a few months after Roland returned to the territory, Roland took action again.
On March 20, when the administrative reform was in full swing, Roland led the army eastward. According to Locke's reward, the army took over the ownership of the frontline city in the east of the territory, integrated all the soldiers in the frontline city, and began to conquer the warlord's territory. war.
At the same time, Roland also sent invitations to various places with great fanfare, welcoming other forces to join this war of conquest.
Although in Roland's future plan, the local faction is not only not the target he wants to win over, but is also the main target for him to carry out a large-scale purge and massacre. However, now, they still have value, so Roland is still very interested. Be willing to show friendly attitude toward local factions in order to make friends with them.
Therefore, they were also included in the invitation sent by Roland, inviting them to join this war of conquest. It doesn't matter the army, logistics, etc. It doesn't matter even if you don't bring them, as long as someone comes, let's open up the land, build a new city, and make a lot of money together. Here they are. I will give you tax exemption, you can use the farmland as you please, dig the mineral veins as you like, and if you have money, we can all earn it together. The bulk of it will go to you, and I will get some hard-earned money.
All the local factions have been invited, so naturally the district faction over there is also within the invitation range.
As for the border faction, Roland did not directly discuss any interests with them. It was useless to talk about interests with this group of fanatical revanchists, so Roland simply explained the situation.
Fight the greenskins, provide logistics, and provide soldiers with whatever they need.
In addition to these two factions, Roland gained some prestige by killing the green-skinned high priest. Roland also sent an invitation to everyone in Donnar, welcoming everyone who was willing to fight the green tide to join this war of conquest.
Roland used to be nameless, and even if he recruited talents with great fanfare, no one would come to join him. However, now that he has made a name for himself, the probability of recruiting people is much higher.
Roland's invitation was like a stone dropped into a lake. Although it didn't last long, it still made waves.
Although most of the local forces chose to wait and see, they all responded to Roland's invitation, while several local forces that were close to the territory took the initiative to join Roland.
The border faction was very enthusiastic after learning about Roland's logistics. They all replied to the letter. Even if they didn't come themselves, they asked their extraordinary people to lead a team to join in the fun.
The reason why Roland made such a big splash was not only to attract some talents, but also to let some restless people in the territory know that Roland was leaving the territory.
If they are dissatisfied with the administrative reform, it will be their time to show off their talents after Roland leaves.
Administrative reform will naturally have an impact on all aspects of the entire territory. Moreover, as local power is transferred to the central government and officials' powers are clarified, the administrative system's control over all aspects of the territory will also be significantly improved. Therefore, the loopholes in the administrative system have been eliminated. They were also quickly compensated one by one.
Therefore, some guys hiding in the gutter also had some bold ideas after seeing the soldiers leaving in a big way.
In the newly established villages of humans, half-elves, and dwarves, they were unwilling to have their power taken away due to administrative reforms. At the same time, they, who were jealous of the results of territory construction, began to connect with each other.
The people leading this conspiracy are naturally humans, half-elves and dwarves, patriarchs or nobles. Having tasted power, they have never been willing to live honestly in this territory.
By winning over each other and exploiting loopholes, they became leaders of the newly established villages in Roland's territory, similar to village chiefs and village sages.
There is no need to work, and you can maintain a decent life by relying on middlemen to eat the price difference.
In the past, the administrative system was not perfect, and they also took the initiative to bring people to join them. In order to gain population, administrative officials turned a blind eye to this.
Of course, turning a blind eye does not mean that they can cause trouble. If there is a population loss, or if they want to engage in armed colonization to grab land, then they will not show mercy, and the city defense army will directly attack with heavy blows.
But now it is different. Roland's territory has become famous, and the caravans can provide refugees continuously. There is no need for such middlemen.
Moreover, the people they brought have all settled down and quickly adapted to the life in the territory. They are no longer of much value.
Of course, the most important point is that Roland doesn't like them. As the only leader of the territory, Julius will naturally not oppose Roland's request because of these guys.
Moreover, Julius, who has not received the traditional education of Donnar and Sinnar and is not very interested in the feudal system, does not like these guys who are outside the administrative system and try to cut off the control of officials at the grassroots level.
Today they dare to control the grassroots villages, and tomorrow they dare to disobey administrative orders. I dare not think about what they will do in the future.
This must be a heavy blow.
Therefore, Julius agreed to Roland's idea of hitting them hard, eliminating the middlemen, and directly establishing a grassroots village administrative system.
Faced with the threat of administrative reform, some chose to give up power honestly, while others wanted to take advantage of Roland's absence to resist the reform.
Under the surveillance of the hidden soldiers, they thought they were secretly planning a famous riot.
