I really can't control myself

Everyone was relieved to find the prince. Yes, although the news was not announced at all, many ministers were already vaguely aware of the situation. It is not normal for the emperor to go out. He is still so anxious to go out. Many ministers actually have some channels in the palace. Of course, they know these things just to prepare in advance. If nothing happens, they will naturally continue to treat it as nothing. Know.

Of course, this matter is not over yet. After all, Xiao Linrui can fly now. It is quite uncomfortable to fly from time to time. If you don't care about him, he will fly away and disappear again. You can leave him alone. It's quite difficult to control him.

Regarding this, Linton thought about it and adopted the simplest method, which is the pain management method, which is referred to as a beating. To put it simply, as soon as Lin Rui here flies, Linton will go over and beat him PP. After beating him, of course he will cry, and then let Yalan coax him. After flying and hitting again, and after hitting and coaxing, Xiao Linrui probably noticed that he would be hit as soon as he flew, so he stopped flying.

It's impossible to teach him any truth because he's too young. Anyway, he won't do it if he knows it hurts. For this reason, Linton also watched the child for three days, and finally it seemed that Xiao Linrui understood this truth. From the fourth day on, he seemed to have stopped flying around.

To be honest, Linton was not worried about anything happening to this little guy. With his current physical strength, it would be difficult for anyone to embarrass him. But it was not him who was worried, but Yalan. After this incident, Yalan obviously watched the child more closely, and almost did not want Xiao Linrui to leave his sight for a moment. Of course, the government affairs side was also persistent. of desolation.

The emperor is so irresponsible, but nothing major happened to the country. The main reason is that the current highest level of governance in the Holy Empire of Yilan has become a parliamentary system, although the nominal supreme ruler is Emperor Yilan. , but the people who actually issued the orders were her, Linton, her two sisters, and sometimes even Garsain. No matter who speaks here, the ministers below will default to the emperor's order, and they will just carry it out anyway.

It seems that this form is a bit bad. After all, how can the imperial power be dispersed casually? However, the actual situation is that no one among the five people wants to be the emperor. It happens to be such a special situation that the five people have no motivation to fight for power. On the contrary, Some weird harmony.

Of course, the political affairs these days are basically handled by Linton. After all, although others don't think so, Linton himself still feels that he is responsible for Xiao Linrui's disappearance. The main reason is that Yalan has to take care of the children and deal with government affairs, so too many things have been left to her. Linton is now free, so he can share some of the burden.

Naturally, there are other selfish motives. For example, Linton's main concern is the construction of the new city, which is related to his own mission after all. Fortunately, the progress of this matter seems to be much smoother than expected. The current construction of the new city is going very smoothly, with almost no trouble.

The current new city has not yet been completed, but the population has reached about 140,000, which is considered a medium-sized city in this world. Of course, half of the 140,000 people are now laborers who built the city, another 10,000 are in the army, and the rest are the people who have just moved in.

There are so many troops who are mainly laborers who built the city, and there are a lot of slaves among them. These slaves naturally need to be guarded, so these troops are not actually the city guards of the city, they are just people borrowed from other establishments. The city still lacks a lot of things, especially people, whether they are residents, troops, or officials.

There is a shortage of population. As a Chinese, Linton really feels a little strange about such a situation. However, after careful study, Linton found that this was not the essence of the problem. On the surface, the problem in New Town is population, but in fact the most fundamental reason is lack of time.

As a city with an extremely advantageous geographical location and located on various traffic arteries, the new city does not actually have an accurate population. First of all, there is no shortage of population in the empire. There is a large population, but they have not yet gathered in this new city. On the one hand, it is because of the lack of information. There is no Internet in this world. It takes enough time for people to know that a new city has been built here. On the other hand, transportation is also a big problem. Although this city still uses the road system of the previous city. , there is no need to build a separate building, but if you want to move to this city, most people use walking. It is possible to walk to this far away area for several months.

In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, if we don't care about anything and wait for two or three years, the city will definitely develop on its own and there won't be any population problems. But the problem is that Linton is short of time. His task must be handed in in less than a month, and before that, he must make the city look more like a city.

As mentioned before, he has actually met all the requirements of the mission, such as rebirth points, shops, etc. He has met all the necessary requirements. These shops such as the weapons shop he opened, although there is no one in the city now, there is no need for them. There is not much business, but Uncle Eke has always opened it for Linton, the kind that runs at a loss. Now Linton has not handed in any tasks but is just correcting the background, hoping to get a high evaluation.

The current construction in the city is mainly in housing, and a lot of houses have been built. In fact, laborers other than slaves are already being allocated houses. What Linton needs now is people to move in. To be precise, what Linton needs is not the population, but increasing the population as much as possible in less than a month.

Originally, this was a headache for Linton because he really didn't know what to do. He even thought about forcibly moving a group of people from other cities to fill up the population first. But everyone knows that not many people will cooperate with this matter. What if they don’t cooperate and these people make trouble? What to do if there is a civil unrest? Send troops to suppress? What Linton lacked was time. How could he have time to suppress the army?

But just when he had a headache, good news suddenly came. Yes, good news from the front lines. The news is like this. Didn’t the Holy Empire of Elan declare war with the Elf Kingdom of Varashi before? The two sides were preparing to gather their forces for war, but the Holy Empire of Elan’s forces had not yet finished gathering. The army has already been mobilized, but it has not reached the north yet.

Compared to the Holy Empire of Elan, the Elf Warahi Kingdom gathered its troops much faster, of course, because they were fighting on their own, and their troops were gathered at once.

So after they have assembled first, what will they do next? Prepare fortifications for the upcoming human attack? Of course not. It seems that the elven Varahi Kingdom does not think that human troops can defeat their invincible elven army. It thinks that it is impossible for their country to be invaded by human troops, so what kind of defenses should they prepare. Since their troops have been assembled first, of course they should fight out first and change the location of the war to the human race.

This decision of the elves, let’s not talk about whether they are arrogant or not, first of all, the unlucky people are not the people on the border of the human race. The first unlucky one is the Kingdom of Sardinia.

It was the small country that was in the middle of the border between the two countries and was coerced by the Holy Empire of Iran into participating in the war. Originally, the elves and humans were not bordering each other. If there was a war, this small country would naturally be an important battlefield. So the elves thought about it and decided to capture this small country first.

The Kingdom of Sardinia is naturally in trouble. The elves have already attacked before the human army has arrived. Their country's army also said before that a total of 800 people were mobilized to face the elven army, 50,000. How do you say we should fight? The king of the Kingdom of Sardinia also wants to know.

After receiving this news, the King of Sardinian Wende Kingdom ran away with his people, because they were on the border of the Elf Kingdom and often dealt with these elves. They knew that these elves looked down on the human race and treated them badly. It is also very ruthless. For example, as long as the civilians on their side dare to enter the forest, the elves will be shot and killed when they find out, and they will not give you an explanation at all. In this situation, the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia was worried that he would be killed before the human troops arrived.

Without any defensive force, the elves' advance was naturally very smooth. However, the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia who ran away here must not be able to solve the current problem, so he quickly sent a distress letter to the Holy Empire of Yilan. The meaning is that your army will come quickly, our country will be completely destroyed.

Now this letter for help is on Linton's chopping board. Generally speaking, there is nothing that can be done about this situation. It's not like the human race won't dispatch the army. The 340,000 troops are all on the way. However, the size of the army is too large and it is more troublesome to move. , it will take time to gather, so there is no other way but to wait, right? The most that can be done is to send a letter to comfort the King of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

But when Linton saw this letter for help, his first thought was not to save the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia, but... the population of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Yes, although the Kingdom of Sardinia is a small country with a sparse population, it is still a country. What's more important is that the culture of the Kingdom of Sardinia is actually not very different from that of the empire. If all the people from this country can be deceived, the population of the new city can increase by hundreds of thousands. , won’t the gap be filled now?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a God-given opportunity. Linton didn't hesitate in getting ready and took action immediately.
