Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord
Chapter 355 Population Strategy
"The coalition of Grand Duke St. Valen and the Church of Glory were repeatedly frustrated in a small-scale war with Daus..."
"Goris began to recruit soldiers to the surrounding vassal states in the name of the Pope. The Glorious Spear Trial Legion stationed on the Eisengard border seemed to have the intention to send troops to the central southern border..."
"In order to respond to the Pope's recruitment, the royal family of the Duchy of Barkley was divided into two factions. Many of the nobles of the fiefdom decided to send troops to reinforce St. Valen, which was equivalent to openly hostile to the Federation."
"The church began to send demon-killers to attack the seven wizard kingdoms and openly oppose the restart of the civil war, accusing the church of destroying the covenant, and the head of the spellcaster organization who is not sure at present..."
Harvey frowned and felt heavier as he watched the communication messages sent from the members of various factions in the caster forum.
The full-scale civil war between the Spellcasters Federation and the Radiant Church is probably about to break out.
During this period, not only were there talks in the forum, but even the large chambers of commerce that maintained close cooperation with Harvey seemed to have received the news of tense situation in the central part of the southern region, constantly sending friendly reminders to Harvey and to follow up Business cooperation expressed concerns.
After all, except for weapon dealers and human traffickers, no organization engaged in commercial operations is willing to see war. This will not only destroy the commodity sales network they have finally established, but also cut off the freight routes that are not convenient and smooth.
"Sir, the secret police sent the news back from the southern part of St. Valen." Asdaren held the copied intelligence information and reported in detail the results of the intelligence work in recent times.
"In addition to the royal capital Jinhui City, due to the large-scale conscription of noble lords and arbitrarily increasing taxes, a large number of civilians in the southern area who evade service and pay taxes..."
In addition, the neighboring country, the Grand Duke of Barkley, suddenly sent troops to enter the country, and launched an expedition against the fief nobles in southern St. Valen in the name of the church. Silver Song City and Montenegro Port were destroyed by war, and a large number of surrounding fields and farms were abandoned. In the cold winter, the prices of food that was already scarce were soaring, and the originally prohibited slave trade activities have become active again.
Although I have not been able to form an intelligence network for a long time, and the experience and ability of the secret police trained and trained are also uneven, the timeliness and accuracy of the transmission of intelligence messages has been greatly guaranteed after the magic brain instruments are used.
Harvey knew the actions of those nobles in the fiefdom. Even if the war did not affect the surrounding areas of the territory, they would take advantage of the war to collect intensive taxes and take this opportunity to settle accounts with the new and old grievances that were close to other lords, just in time to borrow. Revenge private revenge in the name of conscript.
It can be said that before the civil war really started, the frictions and conflicts between the little nobles had already damaged the local people's disputes.
"It's too low to rely on the secret police to secretly spread news and guide the people to escape to the border grizzly neck on their own..." Harvey murmured with his fingers rubbing his fingers.
Asdaren coughed lightly and reminded: "The cooperative chambers of commerce are also trying their best to promote the recruitment policy for us, and the results have been very little. Most people are unwilling to carry their families with their families in such a cold winter. The risk on the road is too great.”
Harvey nodded in agreement, got up and walked to the wall hanging from the Saint Valen border map, raised his hand and quickly outlined a curved black line with a thick charcoal pen, which happened to flow through the entire Saint. The Ralph River in the Principality of Valen overlaps.
Asdaren was keen thinking and immediately asked, "Use shipping to directly absorb the transferred population?"
"Yes, the source of the Ralph River is located on the border of the Grizzly Leadership, but the depth of the river section starting from Grizzly Fort is enough to sail. The river channel becomes wider as it goes down. When it flows through Sancha Town, it arrives west to Jinhui City , to the south, it leads directly to Heishan Port..."
Harvey drew a circle in Sancha Town with a charcoal pen and said quietly: "It only takes one and a half days to arrive here when we send troops from Grizzly Castle to travel south. If we set up a population transfer station here, It can completely open up the storage and transportation channels to the south."
The Ralph River is in the river section north of Sancha Town, and it is almost completely frozen in winter, and fishing and sailing are almost impossible... Unless a sharp steel icebreaker like Harvey relies on magic power instruments Even if you go up against the current, you can ensure high speed driving.
Considering that Asdaren was a complete "old northerner" and had a better understanding of the situation in the south than Harvey, a research otaku, they immediately summoned Dult, who was familiar with the domestic situation in St. Valen.
Dur is very decisive. After understanding Harvey's intentions, he explained frankly: "Lord, Sancha Town is located in the fiefdom of Grand Duke Ralph... That's right, it's the one who named Ralph River. The husband's family is always in Fengyuan City west of Sancha Town, and the fiefdom area is several times larger than the grizzly bear leader of the Fegan family."
Grand Duke Ralph was a loyal faction who followed the Grand Duke of St. Valen more than a hundred years ago, and was also one of the largest fiefdom nobles in St. Valen. Although his relationship with the Raven Church has always been lukewarm, the Grand Duke was still called up this time. Nearly 2,000 regular knights and mercenaries were sent to respond.
"With such a big-scale army, isn't this Grand Duke empty behind?" Harvey asked curiously.
Durte smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Compared to the two or three hundred elite knights under Count Feigen, this Duke Ralph is not a mere show-off. At least half of his Fengyuan Knights are extraordinary knights with bloodline talents. The family also supports a number of independent spellcasters with good strength and has formed a magician advisory group."
And most of these spellcasters employed by noble princes are from noble families. They will not stand on the side of the Federation because of their beliefs. It is considered a mild attitude to remain neutral.
Harvey nodded and said lightly: "I roughly understand that the bloodline knights and spellcaster advisors... The armed forces owned by the nobles have a very similar structure. This is the case with Count Feigen and Duke Ralph."
He turned to Reiner, who was late, and ordered: "Notify the Ministry of Industry and send people to Grizzly Castle immediately... Complete the construction of the barge dock and shipbuilding workshop within a week."
No mistakes in one poem, one post, one content, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!
Durt already knew the Lord's plan to use the steel icebreaker to go south, but he was still confused when he heard him order the construction of docks and shipyards in Grizzly Castle.
"My Lord, you...are you only starting to build docks and shipyards now? Are you planning to take action against Duke Ralph after the spring?"
Harvey laughed at the young spellcaster's question. Reiner and Asdalen looked at each other and explained with a smile in unison: "The cement dock can be built within a week. As for shipbuilding...all the ship components are cast in advance, they only need to be transported and assembled and welded on the spot. They can be launched in three days!"
Steel icebreakers have now achieved modular mass production. All the accessories are ready-made and piled in the warehouse. It is not much more complicated to assemble a finished ship than to build blocks.
