Episode 11: Yasi's Future Section 4: The Decision of the Elders of the Dwarves
Under Warner's questioning, Corey said: "I'm worried about Orlando and the others. Although Jack has rushed there with his swordsman battalion this time, the orcs are not easy to deal with. The most terrifying thing is us.
I don’t know how many orcs there are.”
"You are afraid that they will be impulsive, take the initiative to attack, and cause a big fight." Warner somewhat understood what Corey meant.
"I'm not afraid of that. They have experienced hundreds of battles and will not make such mistakes. However, we still need to make preparations. Let's form two legions of navies first. We should discuss some things with Ammu," Corey said.
When he said this, he put away his smile and looked serious.
Warner nodded slightly, rang the bell at hand, and the sergeant came in.
"Go and make arrangements. Prepare a table of sumptuous dishes in the garden. Invite Marshal Muharrin, General Chichika, and the Prime Minister to come. I said that the night is very beautiful tonight and I want to chat with them."
The chief servant bowed and stepped back to make arrangements himself.
While Corey and Warner were chatting about their daily life and gossiping about past events, the sergeant came in again: "Your Majesty, everything is ready, and the three adults are here too."
"So fast." Corey was a little surprised. The sergeant thought that an hour had passed by quite quickly, but after thinking about it, he didn't dare to say this. He opened the door for Warner and walked out with Corey.
Then, he followed behind.
The three ministers in the garden were already waiting here. When they saw Warner appear, they stood in a triangle.
"Everyone, please step aside. Let's chat without anyone disturbing us." Warner waved his hand and signaled the sergeant to leave. The sergeant agreed and asked all the sergeants and maids to leave. He also specially asked the officer in charge of the Guards here.
After a few words of explanation, I left.
"Everyone, take a seat." After Warner sat down, several people sat down.
Corey grabbed a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, biting it and said, "Brother Amu, how many more troops can we recruit?"
When the three invited ministers entered the garden, they saw each other and guessed that there must be something going on tonight. It was more than just chatting, but they didn't expect that Corey would get into the topic so quickly.
Ammu looked at General Chichika. General Chichika pondered for a moment and replied: "Due to the last time the six-nation coalition attacked us, they recruited a large number of troops, and this time they added two more legions. Now according to our Yasi
The ratio of the total population to the regular army, we can actually no longer recruit troops."
After hearing General Chichika's words, the Prime Minister immediately said: "This is related to the stability of the kingdom. The soldiers are all young and middle-aged. If there are too many people, agriculture and commerce will be affected. I am afraid that there will not be enough food in the country in the future."
eat."
"I understand this truth, so I asked how many more troops can be recruited. Let's change the question, how many troops can our regular army draw under normal defense?" Corey said with a wry smile.
Ammu was slightly stunned. If Warner hadn't been here, he would have asked Corey what he needed so many soldiers for. But just when he was about to answer, Corey said first: "You know over there from the dwarves, this half-orc is
It’s crazy. The most terrifying thing is that we don’t know how many orcs there are. Just seeing how miserable the dwarves with tens of thousands of villages are, their number will not be small.”
"We currently have thirty-four regular combat corps. We can draw fourteen. Plus the newly formed one, the total is sixteen." These numbers and combat power distribution, including defense focus, do not need to check the map.
Amu knew it well.
When Keri was about to speak, Amu gave Keri a wink, and Keri immediately swallowed his words.
At this time, General Chichika said: "Your Majesty, we are formulating a new plan, which can triple or even five times increase the number of regular soldiers. The most important thing is that the number of people in agriculture, commerce, and production will not be completely reduced, but will also increase.
.”
Corey now understood the reason why Ammu stopped talking. After listening to Chichika's words, he asked anxiously: "What method is so powerful? Please tell me quickly."
General Chichika looked at Ammu, and after getting Ammu's agreement, he said: "This is our plan. Let each of the existing legions select 25% of the soldiers to go home. After these soldiers go home,
If you engage in farming, the Kingdom will provide certain subsidies, and if you want to do business, the Kingdom will also lend them some capital."
When Corey heard that it was interesting, he poured General Chichika a glass of wine. No one meant to interrupt at this moment, and General Chichika took a sip of wine and continued.
"Not only soldiers, but also old mid-level officers have also left the main battle corps and been assigned to various places. They are responsible for managing these soldiers who have left the army. They conduct large-scale drills every six months. These people are called the Yasi Reserve Army, and Shao
A legion with 25% of its soldiers can recruit new soldiers."
"Ha, I understand this. There was a period of ten or eight years. The number of soldiers that the Yasi Army can fight on the battlefield will be three times as many as now. From now on, all of Yasi will be excellent soldiers who have received strict training. Who is afraid of this fight?
Who is it?" Corey shouted with excitement.
The Prime Minister also said cheerfully: "Coupled with the academies to villages implemented by Mr. Kerui before, in this way, every citizen of Yasi will receive education and training from childhood onwards, and Yasi will become stronger and stronger."
"That being said, I have no reason not to approve this proposal." Warner also laughed.
"Your Majesty is wise, we also planned to take advantage of the enthusiasm for signing up to join the army this time to come up with this proposal. This is the reason why the people's lives are stable due to your Majesty's wisdom." General Chichika has been in the officialdom for many years and does not dare to take the credit.
Regarding yourself, first say something nice to Warner.
Warner shook his head: "I haven't done enough. I heard that there are starvation deaths in the West." After Warner finished speaking, he slowly put down his wine glass. The three ministers all bowed their heads and remained silent. No matter for whatever reason,
After all, he is dead, Hua Hua loves the people, and several ministers have nothing to say.
After a long time, the Prime Minister said: "This was an accident. The fire burned down the entire village, and the relief was not delivered in time. I will find out who was at fault and punish him severely."
"Take care of our people, so that our wealth can last forever, and only then can our descendants enjoy the glory and the title of nobility. This is what my father often taught me." Warner sighed softly, feeling a little sad in his heart.
"Your Majesty's lesson is very important. The old minister must pass this word to every official." The Prime Minister did not dare to comfort Warner, fearing that the more he tried to persuade Warner, the more he would become sad.
Seeing that the atmosphere was very gloomy, Corey knocked the wine glass and the table loudly: "There is something very interesting, do you want to hear it? Let me tell you, you know, Gerald, the elder of the dwarf tribe, he made a random one today.
A defective sword can make our officers' eyes go straight."
Seeing that everyone's attention had been attracted, Corey danced and recounted what the Foreign Secretary had just told him, and finally specifically talked about the auction.
"Well, this is interesting. Last time I heard you tell me, my lion-biting swords are all better quality swords from the dwarves. This auction is a good idea, but I'm afraid it won't be as good as your wish." Ammu.
Said with a smile.
"Why." Corey looked confused.
Ammu was not in a hurry, and gave it a try. After appreciating Corey's anxious look, he slowly said: "First of all, the affairs of the dwarves cannot be released to the public. That's right."
"Then let me ask you again, if my lion's biting sword was put up for public auction in front of the palace tomorrow, what do you think it would be worth?" Ammu finished talking and drank her wine.
Obviously Corey and Warner have not thought about this problem. These officers are all swordsmen, and many of them are excellent swordsmen. How could they not distinguish between good and bad swords?
