Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

The shock brought by the steam train lasted for a long time, and the nobles who had planned to leave after congratulating Roland on his birth abruptly changed their itinerary.

Although they don't know much about trains, they know the huge potential of this thing. In view of this, who doesn't want their territory to have this "artifact"?

So in the next few days, the nobles were consulting Swamp Castle for relevant information to see if they could build a train and build several railways in their territory.

Such business talks are still hosted by Chahar, but Luo Ning is also present.

Things like railway lines need to be led from the top down and planned in a unified manner.

But the nobles here are like small countries. If a line passes through the territory of noble A, and one day the noble takes the wrong medicine and cuts off the railway track, the impact will be very great.

Before Luo Ning could unify these places, he would naturally have to negotiate terms and agree on the responsibilities of both parties. If someone deliberately damages, they will have to bear the corresponding consequences.

Of course, Luo Ning doesn't do all this for free.

Although the steam train is in his hands, other nobles do not need to deal with this matter, but when it comes to the railways in their territories, they need to pay for it themselves.

The cost of labor, the cost of various materials such as steel and sleepers, plus the cost of Wu Beiling's professional technical team, the total of 100,000 gold coins is absolutely unstoppable.

In addition, after the railway runs later, transportation fees and so on will need to be paid to Wubei Ling.

So when it came to money, 90% of the nobles backed down.

Luo Ning had known that this would happen, so he did not expect all nobles to be able to join the huge project of railway construction.

He focused mainly on nobles who had mines in their territories and had huge needs for transportation.

After talking for a few days, except for Rulans' full support, the other nobles were very cautious and said that they would think about it carefully and give an answer as soon as possible.

Luo Ning can also understand, after all, this is a big project.

But he also realized that if he wanted to lay railways everywhere, he needed to take the lead from above.

As long as a railway has a decision to pass through a certain noble's territory, it can pass through it. The nobles in that area should not have the right to refuse.

Fortunately, there is no rush now. We will first build the railway from Wubei Territory directly to Wushanbao and the branch lines along the way.

If other nobles want to consider it, just think about it slowly.

After the lively celebration, Swamp Castle returned to its former tranquility.

In addition to taking care of Roland every day, Luo Ning started tinkering with concrete. The high-quality clay from West Wind Hill and the limestone from Boulder City can be used together, and the new building materials can also be used in the construction of Wubei City and Wubei Castle. .

In addition to these things, Ronin will also receive letters from other members of the War Council. For example, among the enemies faced by Varghese and Ibn, there are Sun Knights, and Ronin will be there to deal with these troubles for them.

As for the frontal and eastern battlefields, although the Sun Knights also appeared, Rydal and McCann were enough to deal with them.

After a lot of consumption, the losses of the army under Ronin were relatively small, but the losses of Varghese and Ibn were relatively large.

Although they won the final victory and continued to occupy the territory that originally belonged to the Principality of Firensburg and the Principality of Blackthorn, they were not able to grow as fast as Ronin and Rulans.

In the following two-year war, it was not difficult for Luo Ning to find that although the Kingdom of Tricia was still resisting in sections, there were fewer and fewer strong men appearing on the battlefield.

This strong person refers to the eighth-level and ninth-level extraordinary people.

Often, at the end of a war, the strongest combat force on the opponent's side is the Golden Knight.

Although there are a lot of golden knights, they can't make any waves.

It seems that since Thranduil died, the opponent's ability to produce strong men in batches has dropped sharply, and it is completely unable to keep up with the consumption rate of strong men on the four battlefields.

Above Bacchus City, Ronin and Redal stood in the sky, watching the fierce battle going on below.

"The strength of the Flame Seal Knight opposite should be close to the meteor level."

Ruidal pointed to the battle group on the lower right and introduced: "However, we only need one golden knight and two silver knights to use the flame battle formation to take him down!"

Luo Ning looked over and saw that the three of them cooperated closely, and there was always a sense of distant resonance between them during their actions.

Special training secrets, coupled with the assistance of external objects and a series of training, gave them a sense of synchrony.

The three of them besieged the enemy, and the enemy's Flame Seal Knights were at the end of their strength.

"That Golden Knight seems to be Joffrey, right?" Ronin asked.

Redal laughed, "Yes, sir, the two years of war have made Joffrey's strength improve by leaps and bounds, and now he has reached the late gold level. Next to him is Bablin. Although he has only become Silver, he has served as a defense officer. , Sheriff’s and other positions.”

Both Joffrey and Bablin came from the savage tribe, and their current achievements can be considered a legendary experience.

In fact, thanks to Luo Ning's allocation of resources to his old subordinates to improve their potions, many of them have grown quite well in the past two years.

For example, Rogner, Damon, Tom, etc., and the strongest among them is Kalada, who is now the Meteor Knight.

While the two were talking, the war below had ended.

At this point, three large cities, five medium-sized cities, and a dozen small towns between Misty City and Dragon City to the south have all been captured by Luo Ning.

"To the south of Bacchus City is the Dragon Avenue. At the end of this road of more than 60 miles is the capital of the Kingdom of Tricia, Dragon City."

Looking south from the sky, Ronin could vaguely see the outline of Dragon City.

In fact, the intensity of the war in the past six months has not been high, mainly because the enemy's army has completely lost its morale.

If it weren't for Taro's incentives with money and the threat of the lives of his relatives, this group of people would have wanted to drop their weapons and give up resistance.

Even in Bacchus City, which is the bridgehead of Dragon City, the enemy's guard force is far less than the battle of Misty City.

"Sir, when are we going to attack Dragon City?" Rydar said with some anticipation.

Ronin pondered slightly.

Now that his magician level has reached (57327/60000), it only takes four months to cross the legend and become a sage.

I have waited for two years, so there is no need to rush.

"Before the spring plowing next year."

Ronin said: "It just so happens that the war in the Principality of Vera will end in September and October, so we can just join forces at that time."

The Vera Castle was occupied by Rulans and McKen a year ago, and they continued to attack other cities to the east during this period.

In addition to McKen, Karada's fleet has bypassed the Principality of Vera and set foot on the land of the Kingdom of Tricia from the south. Now it has occupied two small cities, and the results are not bad.

Rydar nodded, "You are still as steady as ever about the Dragon City."

Ronin couldn't help laughing.

Now Harmon's intelligence system has spread all over the Dragon City, and even if something happened in the palace, Ronin can accurately grasp it.

In the past two years, he has been waiting for the opportunity for Yan Yi to leave the palace, so that he and Rydar can launch a blitzkrieg and behead the other party.

It's a pity that the other party, whether timid or steady, has never stepped out of the palace for two years, and has been holding on to the formation.

Harmon didn't know much about Flame Wing, so in order to avoid any accidents, Ronin gave up the radical strategy.

Now this way of conquering a city and governing a city is not bad.

Moreover, after the war lasted longer, the reputation of Ronin's arrogant soldiers and brave generals spread, and his prestige was established, and it was at its peak.

Although the War Council was still there, both Vargis and Ibn had completely handed over the decision-making power.

The operation of the Kingdom of Alduin had unknowingly depended on Ronin's intentions. (End of this chapter)
