Proof of the Sun King
Chapter 566: , Mousillon Nights
ps: This chapter has 4700 words, I wish you a happy reading.
Musilon has recovered. After the night has fallen, the entire city is now under the control of the human army. The patrolling army is exploring the entire city, searching for possible enemies. The wealth in the old house is still obsessed, and they rummage around, looking for a windfall that may be forgotten.
It is true that there are very few lucky people who find a little wealth by chance. This matter was reported to Hux, Baron of Devon. Hux thought carefully and felt that there was no need to stop it, so he turned a blind eye to it. All right.
The city of Mousillon is really too big. In fact, after entering the city, even an army of more than 20,000 people is not enough to search every part of the city, especially in the shantytowns and lost areas. There are many hidden trails, cellars and secret basements that the army has spent a lot of time searching for, and it may be good news that some soldiers are willing to take action at this time to search from house to house.
After the end of the Great Divide, Ryan and others stayed in the Randuin Street in Jiangxin. Ryan chose a three-story middle-class aristocratic mansion for himself to live in. After cleaning the contents, it was changed to a very simple one, temporarily serving as Ryan. residence here.
Today, Ryan is here to entertain the Imperial General Dietrich from the Empire of Nur, his lieutenant Boris von Zhukov, Ryan's subordinate Baron Lucien of the Spire Palace, and his good friend Alfred.
Due to the decrease in grain reserves and the slaughter of Mousillon, Lane's treat was very simple, and he did not strictly follow the order of serving the dishes. Lane prepared a total of four dishes for this banquet.
The first course was a large casserole casserole filled with potatoes, corn, pork, chicken, lamb, bacon, and spices.
The second course is Brittany's famous braising veal, which is called blanc because the sauce poured over this dish is white. This dish is made from brisket or shoulder of veal, boiled with carrots, celery, and onions in water. Goulash and Beaujolais are a perfect match.
The third course was the fish soup Leonasay, which consisted of fish soup, sliced bread dipped in garlic and potatoes. This coastal delicacy is a great treat when paired with red wines from Bordello's Broken Valley vineyards.
The last dish is Mousillon's famous frog dish. Mousillon has nothing else. There are indeed many snail frogs. This amphibian was placed on the table of the Bretons a thousand years ago. It is still the main source of meat dishes for many people here in Mousillon. The tender frog meat is served with garlic butter and parsley. After eating it, you can feel the wonderful taste and the effect of prolonging life. It is said that Mou Xilong Long people eat one million frogs every year. Ryan doesn't know how to calculate this number, but since he arrived in Mousillon, he must follow the local customs and taste the famous frog dish.
Ryan's female courtier Teresa sat with him. Due to the hot weather in July and the consumption of a lot of mana by the frozen underground river, Teresa was at the bottom of the valley for a period of time, and happened to be with Ryan. , also when on vacation.
On the dining table, the sound of silver plates and knives and forks colliding endlessly. The two imperial generals sat opposite Ryan, and they were a little restrained when eating.
The person in front of them is now a duke, and has the same status as Emmanuel, the Duchess of Nur, whom they are loyal to.
And more importantly, they witnessed Ryan's prowess throughout the campaign to retake Musillon.
Needless to say, the individual martial arts of the fairy goddess in the lake to choose the champion, the two imperial generals compared the most powerful warrior of Nur, Theodore Bruckner of the champion of Nur and the chief officer of Nur, with Ryan, My heart is full of sighs, because it is far inferior, Theodore Bruckner's strength is even worse than that of Callard, not to mention the first battle with Tzeentch, then Randuin, and finally in Curona. Watch out for Ryan, who beat Matthew Bard.
The strong can be respected no matter where they are. The little dissatisfaction that Dietrich and Boris had with Ryan also disappeared after seeing Ryan's strength with their own eyes, especially Boris von Zhukov, they thought. It's not without reason that Duchess Emmanuel would like Ryan.
And in a few years, he will be king of the country.
But because of this, these two people are a little embarrassed. After all, they complained about Ryan in front of Duke Law, and they don't know if these rumors have spread to Ryan's ears, and they have said bad things. Naturally, these two people are in front of Ryan. Can't afford the waist.
"Mr. Dietrich, Mr. Boris, it's been hard work for you to come from afar, and you have suffered a lot in this battle. You don't have to rush back, you can rest for a while." Ryan asked Dietrich and Boris why Silent knew it well, and he didn't say it, Duke Musillon had a faint smile on his face: "You shouldn't be in a hurry to go back to Nur, right?"
Dietrich slandered in his heart that Mousillon is now in vain, so why don't we stay here for you? The imperial general pretended to think for a moment and said in a muffled voice: "It's better to go back earlier, now that Musillon has recovered, it's useless for us to stay here, and this time we have suffered a lot, and the siege equipment We also lost more than half of it, and when we return to Nuer, Your Excellency the Countess will definitely blame us."
The Countess is the honorary title given to Emmanuel, who holds three great noble titles, otherwise Emmanuel, who holds the three top titles at the same time, has to give a brief introduction every time she appears, which is inevitable among the commoners. It seemed a bit too complicated, so the citizens of Nur gradually used a single "duchess" title to call Emmanuel, which soon became popular among the upper nobles.
As soon as these words came out, Ryan smiled meaningfully. He could see that Dietrich and Boris both respected Emmanuel, which is Emilia, and didn't know what the little maid used. The means, actually can really train Nuer's superiors and subordinates to be obedient. Speaking of the losses, the two imperial generals are a little afraid.
Theresa, who was sitting beside Ryan, was suddenly stunned.
The sorceress wore a set of black night Hua Ting star pearl flower bud wipe shoulder skirt today, revealing her snow-white and greasy shoulders, which matched with her cool temperament and beautiful appearance, highlighted her arrogant temperament and her character of keeping away from strangers. , Unlike Veronica, Teresa never wears low-cut clothes, the length of the skirt also slightly covers the knees and does not reveal the thighs, slender and straight legs stick out from under the skirt, a pair of delicate jade feet without stockings She didn't wear high heels, but simply wore a pair of wood elf-style flat sandals with blue nail polish on her toenails. She sat very quietly beside Ryan, thinking of the past.
Emilia is Emmanuel! Unexpectedly, the female mercenary at the beginning has become one of the most powerful people in the empire. When the sorceress thinks of this, she feels that things are really impermanent. At that time, Ryan and she both felt that the female mercenary was a bit unusual, but it really didn't. People think that she actually...
Thinking of this, Teresa suddenly turned her eyes to Ryan.
Yes, who would have thought that the white wolf knight who adventured with him ten years ago would now become the Duke of Mousillon, the future king of Brittany? !
"Amy...If Emmanuel talks about this, you can say that I am the one who wants to apologize. In order to recover Musilon, the Imperial Army has also made great efforts in this war. As long as If you tell her like this, she will definitely not blame you." Ryan said with a smile.
"Thank you very much!" This is what Dietrich and Boris were waiting for, and the two imperial generals immediately thanked them.
"The Imperial Army has a lot to learn from us. In this war, I learned a lot." At this time, sitting on the side, the new Baron of the Spire Palace, Lucian, spoke, while he put a sausage in the In his own plate, he continued: "Mr. Dietrich, Mr. Boris, when you return to Noor, can you mail me a set of military training textbooks? I can pay for the postage and books."
"It's not difficult." Dietrich nodded, the fifty-year-old veteran of the battlefield: "Leave it to us, Your Excellency Lucien, but you need to leave us your mailing address and contact information, and Mu Xi There is no postal system on Long's side, and we can only send to Helenhilde, the capital of the Duchy of Winford, or the town of Jean in Lord Lane."
"Then please send it to Jean Town." Lucien immediately left an address for them.
Ryan was silent for a while, and suddenly he said to Lucian: "Lucian, is there any problem with you? Do you need me to send someone to help you?"
"Of course it would be good, my duke." Lucien was stunned for a moment, and the young Baron of the Spire Palace immediately responded: "Thank you very much!"
Lane awarded the Spire Palace and its surrounding area to the young knight from the Duchy of Winford, but among all the entitlements, Lucien's land was probably the worst.
This is not referring to the poorest quality of land, because the swamp near the Spire Palace is notoriously fertile, it is referring to the town, and in the previous series of wars, the entire Spire Palace Castle was melted, which means that Lu Xi'an was allocated a piece of white land without decent military defense facilities. Under the current unsafe environment of Musilon, whether this knight can protect his own subjects will be a big question mark.
This made the new Baron of the Spire Palace feel very distressed. Even if the castles assigned to other barons have been captured, but at least there are ready-made castles, which can be reused after repairing. A real white land, Lucian knew that he had the lowest qualifications, and it was good to be named a baron, so he had nothing to say about it.
Five hundred gold crowns is enough to repair an old castle, but if a new castle is to be built, a thousand gold crowns from Ryan is not enough, at least not enough for Lucien.
A pure-blooded elf warhorse is worth a thousand kroner, and there is no market for it.
"Well, you go back to Glamorgan later and find Katzenberg, he will help you, but my help is secondary, mainly depends on yourself." Ryan said to the baron under his command The guide said: "If possible, let the merchants and the churches participate. Don't forget that the pontoon near the Spire Palace is one of the few important transportation hubs that can cross the Gresmory River!"
"Understood!" Lucien thought for a moment and immediately understood what Ryan meant.
"The most important thing is the population, Ryan." Teresa poured herself a bowl of white goulash soup, and the sorceress put forward her own suggestion: "Musilon can accommodate at least one million people, but we There are only 120,000 people now, and even if you can bring some people from Glamorgan, the gap is still too large."
"Leonace's side will send more than 20,000 refugees here." Ryan nodded, and Teresa's words made sense.
"Not enough, only 20,000, 200,000 is not enough." The sorceress bluntly said, in front of the two imperial generals and Lucien: "We need enough population, otherwise it is impossible to rebuild Musillon's past. luminous."
"Indeed, Ms. Trovik is right, my duke, we need population." Lucien also agreed with Teresa, he followed up: "There is not enough population, how are we going to revive this place? Now The situation is that we don’t even have enough people to farm the land.”
"Well..." Ryan pursed his lips, and he nodded in agreement. Indeed, his Musillon needed population.
"This time, we have to ask our imperial brothers." Ryan thought for a while and set his eyes on Dietrich and Boris: "Nur and Wesson have a lot of population, right?"
"???" Dietrich was taken aback, and the imperial general said quickly: "This... Your Excellency Ryan, Nuer and Wessen do have a lot of population, but there are not many excess populations, do you want to Relocating people from us to Mousillon? Uh...we can make an announcement for you, just..."
"No, I have no plans to introduce population from Nur." Ryan shook his head, and he said calmly: "Even if I want to introduce, I will also introduce technical talents, scholars, and human engineers from Nur."
"Then... How does Mr. Ryan plan to solve the population problem?" Boris asked suspiciously.
"Besides Nur, doesn't the empire have other big cities? Especially in your lower reaches, where there is a population, and there is a lot of population." Lane's tone was calm: "The population there is not only helpful for that city. , and it has become an extremely heavy burden, even so, don’t the people of the entire empire gather there frantically?”
"You mean... the capital Brunswick?!" Dietrich immediately thought of something, and the imperial general thought for a while, and suddenly felt that this might really be done.
The city of Brunswick, the capital of the empire, has always been a city plagued by congestion and blockage. Its city walls have reached their limit after several expansions. The number of people it can accommodate is about 200,000 to 30. Ten thousand.
But in practice?
Brunswick's perennial floating population is around one million~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Every year, when the country is green and yellow, there will be waves of refugees and adventurers, fugitives, and war evaders from various empires. Headed towards the capital, trying to find every possible job in Brunswick.
Therefore, the whole city is forever submerged by the crowded crowd, the stench and the noisy sound. At this time, the population is no longer a resource, but a heavy burden.
Dietrich can be sure that if Ryan offered to accept part of the population of Brunswick, then Emperor Karl Franz would definitely be willing to sit at the negotiating table and conduct a negotiation with Ryan to get what he wanted!
"That's right, it's Brunswick." Ryan nodded: "I discovered this problem when I went to Brunswick last time. I think Emperor Karl Franz is definitely willing to release a part of the population to me. I can With the much-needed population resources, he can also relieve the population pressure of the city, but I will definitely not let him keep all the high-quality population and take over all the old, weak, sick and disabled. This can only be discussed slowly. ."
"In addition, next year I will also leave for Brunswick and then to Noor." Ryan took out a gilded envelope with skulls, laurels and iron crosses on it: "This is Emperor Karl Franz. handwritten letter.”
"Our Emperor has invited you to Brunswick?" asked Boris von Zhukov.
"He invited me to watch the ceremony, and Emmanuel must have been invited as well." Lane raised his mouth and said with a faint smile on his face: "Because there will be a major personnel change next year."
"Next year, the eight magic academies of the Imperial Academy of Wizards and Wizards will gather in Brunswick for a game."
"In this game, a new Royal Chief Great Wizard and a new Supreme Dean of the Royal Academy of Wizards will be elected!"
