On the grass outside the Emerald Palace, Annelia was having afternoon tea with Leach very leisurely
Leach sat on the chair where Emperor Carlos, Nicholas IV and his uncle sat, enjoying the snacks and milk tea carefully prepared by the Royal Chef of the Parkinton Palace, while chatting with Her Majesty the Queen
I've heard that Lolaris's spiritual armor test was successful, congratulations to you
Annelia said
Even if the test is successful, it doesn't make any sense to not be able to go to the battlefield.
Leach is still worried about what happened yesterday
If he is an old politician, he will definitely not mention such a bad thing at this moment. Unfortunately, Leach is not old enough, and he is not even a politician, so what do you say
Annelia could only smile bitterly at someone like Leach who was unreasonable. She really had no good solutions.
How could it not come in handy?
Annelia knew very well that she had to give Leach an explanation. In fact, she did not agree with this move. Epoch-making technology like the new spiritual armor must go through actual testing. What other opportunities are there more suitable opportunities than this war?
She originally did not intend to act arbitrarily, but now she has too many things to move. Even after the First National War, the armor maker management system established by the Holy Kingdom of Parkington was completely abandoned. In addition, a new management method was established. She naturally had to change her previous style and make more decisions.
I plan to attack Sobe, the capital of the Franza Empire, as the first battle to appear in the new style of spiritual armor
Annelia said, this is actually the earliest idea
What Mithra said to Leach before is actually correct. Any armor technology is safest only when it is hidden in the laboratory. Once it is revealed, there is a possibility of leaking the secret, so some people think that it should be hidden.
However, taking out the new spiritual armor when attacking Sobe is relatively safe
According to the plan of the Joint Command, the Franza Empire will be the last target of attack; when it comes to Sobe, even if it is not the final battle, it will not be too far from the end of the war. The Franza people have the ability to be able to change the end of the war, and it is impossible to change the end of the war.
That's really great
Leach was finally satisfied that he didn't know anything about politics, so he could naturally see that Annelia took this opportunity to apologize to the princess.
The grudge has been eliminated, and the atmosphere in the Emerald Palace immediately became harmonious
Her Majesty the Queen proposed to establish a strategic alliance between Parkington and Monstock, and Leach naturally had to express something and say something politely like the friendly relations between the two countries.
The Monstock government has not been formed yet. The formal strategic alliance agreement will not be signed until the government is formed. The only thing Leach can now be founded is the list of originally requested assistance. Of course, some of the things above must be modified.
The interest rate of loans provided between strategic alliances is very cost-effective, so Leach intends to turn all the original aid request into loan assistance, which is free, but the quantity cannot be too much, so the loan is different. As long as there is a mortgage, it doesn't matter how much you borrow.
Leach is not worried that he can't pay back the loan Monstock is not good, his financial strength is still good
I want to tell you one more thing: Valedin has sent an envoy here, they intend to surrender unconditionally, but they are only willing to surrender to the alliance
Annelia suddenly throws this news
Did you agree?
Leach became a little nervous
This is what he is most worried about now
If the Valeding Empire surrendered at this time, Monstock would not be able to attack Valeding's land; and because Valeding surrendered to the alliance, in principle, the United Command decided who would send troops to take over control of Valeding. If control was handed over to Monstock at that time, it would undoubtedly make other countries in the alliance that wanted to surrender. The United Command would definitely consider this point.
So the alliance accepts surrender, which means that he and his country cannot take revenge. Fortunately, Annelia's answer was no
I know very well what justice should be done to the Valedin Empire for Monstoke, and sin will be punished. Since Monstoke has launched a counterattack on Valedin, then Monstoke should be responsible for the matter here; if the Valedinians want to surrender, they should also surrender to you.
Annelia gave Leach the promise he wanted: However, there is one thing I want to apologize for. The 30,000 troops and the brilliant knights we lent out in the early stage, for some reasons, we had to take back.
Leach was a little surprised, but he immediately realized that it should be related to the arrival of the special envoy of Valeding. It must be the benefit of the Valedings, which made Annelia fall in love with him.
He didn't care much about these men and horses. Dredava's army arrived soon. The 100,000 troops, plus the Independence Army and Hegette's troops, were enough to deal with the remaining power of Valedin; as for the group of brilliant knights, he did not intend to use them again. Since the war began, the knights of Monstock have been very aggrieved. Now the limelight has turned, and the situation is beneficial to them. This is the time for them to establish their merits, establish confidence and prestige.
But Leach wants to know why Annelia withdraws troops
What conditions did the special envoy of Valeding come up with?
Annelia doesn't intend to hide it
Although the conditions given by the Valeding Empire made her very concerned, the relationship with Monstock was obviously more important than that benefit.
Do you remember that the Iron Blood Corps was once stationed in Casmolina, the capital of Valedin?
Of course remember
How could Leach forget? He went to Casmolina for this incident, and it was this action that allowed him to get Trisley and let him know Lolaris
At that time, we caused some trouble for the Iron Blood Corps, neither we nor the Franza people expected that the Valeding Empire would take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters; they captured two Iron Blood Knights alive, and were very lucky to get some useful things from them.
Annelia casually told the secret that she was not worried about leaking the secret, and even if it was leaked, she wouldn't care, because she wouldn't have trouble, the one in trouble was Valedin.
Although Anelia was satisfied with the technology that was mastered in the hands of the Valedinians, she was not yet in a position to fail. The Franza Empire had not been long; the Franza Empire had certainly mastered much better technology than the little things that the Valedinians had in the hands of the Varedinians.
The big reason why she was willing to accept the deal was that the Valedians did not have high requirements. If the Valedians used surrender as a requirement, she would not consider it at all.
Annelia has guessed that Leach would not care too much about Parkinton's withdrawal. This is politics. The essence of politics is to maximize the interests.
Staying in the city of Sky for a week, Leach finally returned to Monstock, and he was full of loads.
On the third day of the city of Sky, there was a cold current from the north, and heavy snow fell. On the day of the return journey, it was very snowing.
The snow on the ground was very thick, and the road was blocked by snow, and only the railway could pass through.
Leach did not take the railway, he went back directly from the sky; he did not return to Peines, but landed at Stey and when he left, Steyn became extremely lively, especially at the northern station, where a train entered the station every quarter of an hour, and all those who came off the train were knights: reinforcements from Dredava, Hegette's men, and Independent Army
The Independence Army and Hegette's men all carried armor and various supplies, which was a bit too much. They all had empty hands, and even their uniforms were thin autumn clothes.
There was a row of transport vehicles parked next to the station, all of which were loaded with military coats, thick cotton quilts, felt blankets, galvanized kettles and lunch boxes.
The knights from Dredava lined up in a long queue to collect these things. The people who had already led them walked to the south. The barracks were more than ten kilometers away from the station. They wanted to walk there.
Leach saw this scene in the sky, and he was a little amused that the Dredava people were so smart that they had to take advantage of any advantage.
From the flying wing, Leach and Rollalis headed straight to the Cavaliers headquarters as soon as he entered the building, he saw Campbell and Erwin
Why are you two interested in coming here?
Leach did not hide his surprise. In his opinion, even if these two people were not in Peines's office, they should return to Berniebelle. After all, there was their territory.
Nowadays, there is nothing to do with Peines, but people come to complain all day long.
Elvin complains first
He said this well. At this moment, the factory of Peness was closed, the school was closed, the shops were closed, and the whole city was in a state of shutdown. Millions of people in and outside the city lived on the limited-supply of food
It's been a week, and Peness hasn't resumed operations yet? Can the factory start construction first? Although I have arrested many people, I am a political and business figure. Most of the factory owners are not involved?
Leach remembered that he had made an arrangement before leaving. According to his vision, when he came back, Peines could at least make the factory and school rerun. There was no raw materials or funds. Moreover, Peines's residents had already implemented the rationing system, food, fabric and even the wood for burning fires were rationed according to the head half a year ago. Those factories had been shut down for a long time.
Campbell answered this
The youth army has always had a good image among the people, so before leaving, Leach asked Campbell to help Lena stabilize the old man Peines's situation naturally knew something about Peines's situation. Leach was about to talk about the gains of his trip to Parkington, but saw Mary coming up from downstairs.
Lina holds Peines and Stein is in charge of Mary. This is the decision that the other members of the squad also perform their duties. Jiali is the supreme commander of the Independent Army and the faction leader. In name, even Lich is under her.
Dinah is responsible for specific military affairs. Now Dredava's army has arrived, and all the troops are about to move south. Dinah will also go with her. She is responsible for coordinating the three parties.
The three sisters will follow the south, and the Independent Army will be responsible for the specific war, Nora will naturally go south, and her scout regiment and Hassan's men complement each other. Margaret and Tidy are busy forming a new regiment. A group of knights who were about the same age as them have grown up. Some of these people are members of wealthy families, but more are from ordinary families, and they are most suitable for their subordinates. However, Mary came here to find Lych.
Now more than 400,000 people who returned from Peines are gathered outside the city. They are now clamoring to return to their original home. What do you think?
Mary's head gotten several times over this matter
More than 400,000 people? How can I get fast? It may take a week to walk this road from Peines to Stein?
Leach is indeed a little surprised
He originally thought that it would take a week for those who left Stein to go to Peines, and then stayed for at least ten days and half a month. He felt that he didn't have the chance to return to Stein, and it would take another week for him to come back, so it would take at least one and a half months.
It can only be blamed for you. You are too anxious to flatten the residential area. Not everyone goes to Peines. Some people left you to hurry to push down the house and then took Ariane and the others to enclose land. These people immediately thought that these people always had some contact with those who had left. At least one-third of the 400,000 people returned halfway, and the other one-third came to Peines and saw that the situation was wrong and turned around immediately.
Mary explains the causes and consequences
Leach is speechless as Mary said, there are too many smart people
How do you arrange it?
Leach asked
It is snowing heavily in the north now, so it is impossible for them to freeze in the snow. I built a refugee camp southwest of Stein. Fortunately, for the arrival of various troops, we prepared a large number of supplies, tents, camp beds, beddings, and military coats in advance. There is no shortage of food.
Mary told her arrangements, she did a lot of things
How are their situation?
Leach continued to ask
It's OK, at least much better than when Monstock surrendered. At that time, the people who escaped seemed to have collapsed, their faces were gray, and now they at least eat well and sleep well, and have the strength to protest from me.
Mary's answer comforts Leach
Five years of war and three years of displacement made the Monstock people much stronger
They selected more than a dozen representatives. Are you interested in meeting them?
Mary intends to push the problem to Leach, which was originally created by Leach.
No, I have to prepare for you to bring them to see me after 5 pm
Leach had no intention of shirking responsibility. These people lived in Stein for more than three years and were more likely to have a good impression of him and his father. They were all potential supporters. A ball of mud, a few pine wood, three or five pieces of cardboard, as well as scissors, glue and a lot of pigments. Leach locked himself in the room all afternoon. He was fiddling with these things. This time, he went to the city of Sky, and the harvest was absolutely huge.
The biggest gain is not the strategic alliance with Parkington, nor the new armor system idea, but the ancient architectural technology he obtained from Susan.
With the gentle kneading of his hands, the ball of mud quickly became more and more similar to the terrain around Peines. Every knight had to learn to make sand tables according to the map, so it was not difficult for him at all. He did not intend to make it too fine. After the rough terrain was undulating, he stopped and grabbed a handful of dark green sand and sprinkled it on it, which was considered a grass.
With a stretch of fingers, a sharp blade jumped out of the fingertips, Liqi slashed at a pine wood in the air, and only a slight sound was heard, the pine wood suddenly dispersed and turned into more than one hundred pieces of wood.
A strong wind popped out, bounced one of the pine wood into the air, and Leach made another false slash
In a blink of an eye, the pine wood was cut into large and small pieces and long and short wooden sticks.
The things cut with a high-frequency oscillation blade are like cream cut by a quick knife, and the fracture is flat and smooth, but Liqi's skills are really not very good. The cut pieces are big and small, and the thickness and length of the stick are not even.
His face turned slightly red. Fortunately, no one saw it next to him. Otherwise, he would have lost one piece of wood. Leach did not dare to play tricks anymore. He took another piece of wood. This time he carefully cut the wood into the required shape with one knife and one knife.
The first thing an armor maker needs to learn is to draw pictures, and then to make models Leach is very good at doing this. At that time, he used a pair of scissors and a few pieces of copper to make a dragon-style armor model, and from then on, he stepped into the circle of an armor maker.
Compared with others, Leach has two great advantages. One of them is that his right eye shows that there is an exploded diagram calculated by the Intelligent Brain on the screen. He only needs to cut the wood slices into the required shape according to the lines outlined by the Intelligent Brain, and then place it in the position given by the Intelligent Brain.
The other one is his knighthood, and the God King skill he practiced is all in all four categories: water, fire, earth and wind. He just pressed it with his fingers slightly. The glue applied on the wooden block will dry out in five or six seconds. The same is true for the same paint. Once applied, it will dry out immediately.
Soon, the outline of a city was revealed. When Leach came out of the room, he saw a group of people sitting in the first floor hall, including Erwin and Campbell, Mary, Ariana and Carmen. In addition, there were some people he didn't recognize at all. Leach said first: Come and help me move things.
Leach originally wanted to call a few knights on duty to come over, but he didn't expect that Erwin, Campbell, and Mary all came, which made Leach feel quite flattered.
Of course he didn't know that Elvin and Campbell would take the initiative because of their curiosity. In the morning, he asked someone to find various materials. Elvin and Campbell noticed that they guessed that Leitch would definitely make a model, and they also knew it was related to Stein, so what they thought was: Leitch must have made another big move.
Although they have different political views with Leach, they admire Leach's talent very much in the past because they were not in the same way as Leach, so they didn't have the opportunity to take the ride. This time they didn't want to miss the opportunity again. When they entered the room, the two old men's eyes lit up and they saw the model on the table.
There are two models in total, one is the urban model, and the other is a circular one-shaped one-piece apartment. Two models confirm each other. From the city model, we can see that most of the residential areas in Stein will be one-piece apartments in the future, some will be circular, some will be S-shaped, and some will be irregular in shape, but the structure is similar.
Repeatedly using a simple structure, but overall flexible and versatile, this is exactly the design style of Leach from the success of the dragon armor to the glory of Fairy Dragon 4, letting the world know the benefits of this design style are cheap, easy to manufacture on a large scale, and the construction speed is amazing...
Go to the conference room
Leach saw two old men in a daze, so he could only wake them up on the conference room on the top floor. This place was also the place where the counterattack of Peness was discussed at the time. There were only a dozen people sitting here. There were seven or eight people alone, so it seemed a little crowded.
However, small also has small benefits. When the two models were placed in the middle of the table, everyone could see clearly. When everyone sat down, Leach said: I have heard that most people didn’t care about Stein, a small place, and thought that the capital had more room for development. This is actually true. At this moment, there are only more than one million people in Perness, and many of them moved in from other places during the occupation of the Valedinians. We will not protect the interests of this group of people. So, Perness now has many empty houses.
He looked at the public opinion representatives
It was obvious that those people were not deceived by his words, and they sat indifferently, without any intention of expressing their opinions. Seeing these people so resolutely, Leach felt indescribable.
He was a little happy. After all, these people were optimistic about Stein's future and felt a little sad. If he had known this, why would he have been the first one?
Things that are easy to obtain will not be cherished. Leach has long made up his mind not to allow these people to easily obtain the right to live. He wants to catch them like fishing.
Because of its special geographical location, Stein is a major transportation route. Military supplies and various aid transported from the alliance countries will be transported here first. The reinforcements borrowed from Dredava will also gather here first. In addition, many factories will be moved from Bubka. The confidentiality level of these factories is very high, and there are more than 100,000 people working in these factories.
So in principle, Stein will be in a highly confidential state for a long time in the future.
When we choose to stay, we will ask them for their opinions to see if they are willing to accept the confidentiality regulations. If they are unwilling to leave, they must leave.
Sure enough, after these words, the public opinion representatives were all like a loss of their parents, and they changed their voices: However, after all, you have lived in Stein for three years and are half the masters here. Although you can't blame others for leaving here, you have to give you a way out when you come back.
He pointed to the model: This is Stein in the future. In my expectation, this will be a medium-sized city with a population of hundreds of thousands. In order to build this city as quickly as possible, I adopted a special design method
Leach took the model of the one-piece apartment and gently picked it up. The model was divided into two parts. He exposed the beams and columns inside with a random move, and took Stein's model in the air and carried it together. However, this time, he only revealed one of the areas. Because time was too fast, he could not make the entire model so detailed.
You see it, it's like building blocks...
Leach roughly explained his idea what he said was actually what Susan told him at the beginning
Erwin, Campbell and those public opinion representatives are not experts in the field of architecture. Leach said that at most they can understand 20% or 30% at most, but this does not prevent them from making predictions about Stein's future. It will undoubtedly be a unique city. At least in the ten years after the war, its development speed will exceed that of Monstock's original city, and even Peness cannot compare.
At this time, all the representatives of the public opinion regretted it. They regretted it so much that their hearts were bleeding. The two old men, Elvin and Campbell, had a different feeling. They were jealous of Campbell. Elvin was jealous and couldn't describe him. Of course, he knew what it meant to have this city in his hands.
That is wealth, endless wealth
What makes people feel even more bloody is that this city is in the north, and its prosperity needs to be nourished by large areas around it, but this city does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Northern Military Region.
At this time, Elvin finally understood why Leach used Bernie Bailey to exchange control of the Northern Military Region for control at that time, he felt that the deal was very cost-effective. Now he knew how stupid he was.
Although he knew that he had been deceived, Elvin had no choice. He now understood why he could not play Leach's other party's capital. He could turn into a treasure pot by pointing to a piece of wasteland. However, he didn't have the ability to do so at least he didn't dare to think about the design in front of him. He also didn't doubt whether these two models could be realized. Three years ago, he might have doubted, but after experiencing the 4th type of dragon armor, flight technology, Ming Wang, and Fairy Dragon, now it's not just him. Even the people in the alliance know that what this guy draws on the drawings is equal to the real thing, let alone even the model is made.
Elvin even knew that there would always be some people from the Alliance Intelligence Department around Leach. If this guy draws something casually in public, once he leaves, those from the Intelligence Department will come to clean up the scene immediately.
I hope to build most of the city's framework in this, two years, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
Leach finally said his purpose
Those public opinion representatives are not stupid. They know that Leach has been talking for a long time, and the focus is here
We wonder if we have made efforts, will we be eligible to settle here by the time Stein is built?
A public opinion representative asked first
Do you think the city I plan to build only one Stein?
Leach showed a proud look, and his aura suddenly increased to the extreme
A person's momentum is not only related to strength, but more importantly, his state of mind is that at this moment, Leach seems to be able to hold the entire Monstock in his heart. The majestic momentum not only makes a few representatives of public opinion breathless, but even old-fashioned brilliant knights like Elvin and Campbell were shocked by it.
In the central region, more than 90% of the cities have been destroyed, while in the southern region, it is slightly better. However, more than 60% of the cities have been destroyed. If these cities are completely destroyed, it will probably take 20 to 30 years, or even longer. Since I have such a good idea, why not shorten the reconstruction time as much as possible?
Leach's words were loud and clear. No matter the two old men or the representatives of the public opinion, they had no doubt about it. No matter what the purpose was, it would be great to do this. Elvin originally had a little bit of a sense of victory, but now it is completely gone. This is no longer a problem of strength. He was staring at the first place in the past, but Leach was obviously not like this. What he thought of was how to change this country.
Leach didn't know the shock he brought to Elvin. If he knew, he would probably have laughed to death. He was just trying to find something for his second half of his life. He didn't expect that he would misunderstand the number one enemy in the past and think that he was such a great person.
Leach turned his head to Ariana: Is Carmen busy now?
Bubka's factory is about to move here. Do you think she is busy?
Ariana's eyes were fixed on the two models. She was now willing but not capable: Your plan is too huge, and the entire business is using manpower, so it is probably not enough.
What suggestions do you have?
Leach asked
If it is a peace time, I would suggest you find some contractors and ask them to contract a separate area, but now...
Ariana spread her hands, she couldn't do anything
Now let alone Monstock lacks personnel in this field, other countries are also good at construction. They were recruited as soon as the war broke out, and all countries had endless fortifications, not to mention that the alliance built railways in three years and used a large number of talents in this field.
We can help a little
Campbell finally had the opportunity to snatch the words, which would mean that the Resistance Army would have some benefits. During the retreat, most of the technicians recruited by the army followed him to Berniebelle. The fortifications of the northern defense line were designed and built by these people.
After Bloom died, the resistance army fell apart. Erwin was determined to strengthen his own power, and he also knew that after Bloom died, it would be more and more difficult to get some supplies, so he did not intend to raise idle people at all. Relatively, Campbell had a little more consideration in business and knew that these talents were indispensable, so he took them down, but he didn't expect it to be useful now.
Didn’t this counterattack accept tens of thousands of prisoners? They were all knights from the former neutral country, so it would be no problem to let them be coolies.
Ariana suggested on the side that Leach had a heart-warming move, Ariana's suggestion made sense
If it were the Valedinians, he would not dare to let them do coolies. If the Valedinians rebel, his losses would be great, but these people who were originally neutral countries would have nothing to worry about.
Even if they rebel, even if they can escape, there will be no good results for them to eat. If the alliance countries will not take them in at all, they will most likely extradite them back to Monstock. At that time, there will be only one dead end waiting for them. If they escape back to the alliance, they will still be treated as cannon fodder. If they die on the battlefield, they will not be picked out to be executed on the spot after surrender, and will be dead.
This is a good method, just do it
Leach clapped his hands to decide this
It seems that prisoners from neutral countries will be very popular in the future
Campbell's brain was also fast, but he knew that he was not strong enough and had no chance to make this cheap, so he simply said that Campbell's lack of strength did not mean that others could not do it. Leach secretly kept this in his heart.
Isn't this good to do it?
Erwin frowned and said: The detained knights act as coolies, and this behavior will be despised like Valedin now. They hope others will preside over justice and will not pay attention to them.
Erwin's words do make some sense. In the world of knights, dignity is far more important than life. The Valedinians' random trampled on the dignity of knights made them quite isolated. Even in the league, there is a lack of supporters. This time, it is the best proof.
I have a way
Leach said: Those neutral countries that surrendered the coalition will not have any good ends in the future. If we can promise to retain some rights for them and provide some assistance in rebuilding their country, I believe most of the prisoners will be willing to contribute some strength.
Now Erwin has nothing to say that this is not slavery, but an exchange of interests, and he speculated that Leach would definitely tell the prisoners that the work they were doing at this moment would be of great help to the future reconstruction of their country.
Erwin is not worried about whether the prisoners will believe this. Leach wants to pull the words of the Witnesses. From Queen Anelia, Emperor Carlos, Sword Saint Max, to Espol, and Mrs. Shar, there is a strong convincing person who stands up at will.
This matter can be decided, now there is a general manager missing
Lich looked at Ariana. In his opinion, Ariana was the most suitable candidate, followed by Carmen
There are too many facts on my hands
Ariana shrugged: But, I can propose a candidate, how about Midi?
Leach then remembered that such things related to basic construction were more suitable for Midi than Carmen. Her ability was also unique. She could see through things underground. Stein was a basin among the mountains. The underground was thick rock layer, and the thickness of the soil layer above was uneven. In some places, it was more than ten meters thick. In many places, there were rocks below a foot, which had a pair of eyes that could see through the underground. It would be much more convenient during specific construction.
Besides, the seven sisters Rimeti's ability is considered to be middle-aged and superior. She read less books than Audrey and Carmen, but much stronger than other women. Mimeti's personality is relatively calm and seems to be not interested in anything, but she will do it with her heart if she throws something to her.
I also mention a candidate, let Sylvia manage the prisoners, how about it?
Campbell made another suggestion, of course, he was considering himself that he was like Erwin. He had never seen Stein's advantage before. Now that he knew, he naturally had some thoughts in his mind, and he didn't knock his teeth into his stomach like Erwin. He just proposed to get more neutral captives to act as coolies, just to lay a foreshadowing at this moment.
Although I knew Campbell's proposal was for his own plan, those prisoners really needed to be suppressed, and Leach did not want to use the Independence Army's troops, which was a waste of talent, so Sylvia really became a good candidate.
Besides, he would give Hegette some face and nodded.
Leach sat on the chair where Emperor Carlos, Nicholas IV and his uncle sat, enjoying the snacks and milk tea carefully prepared by the Royal Chef of the Parkinton Palace, while chatting with Her Majesty the Queen
I've heard that Lolaris's spiritual armor test was successful, congratulations to you
Annelia said
Even if the test is successful, it doesn't make any sense to not be able to go to the battlefield.
Leach is still worried about what happened yesterday
If he is an old politician, he will definitely not mention such a bad thing at this moment. Unfortunately, Leach is not old enough, and he is not even a politician, so what do you say
Annelia could only smile bitterly at someone like Leach who was unreasonable. She really had no good solutions.
How could it not come in handy?
Annelia knew very well that she had to give Leach an explanation. In fact, she did not agree with this move. Epoch-making technology like the new spiritual armor must go through actual testing. What other opportunities are there more suitable opportunities than this war?
She originally did not intend to act arbitrarily, but now she has too many things to move. Even after the First National War, the armor maker management system established by the Holy Kingdom of Parkington was completely abandoned. In addition, a new management method was established. She naturally had to change her previous style and make more decisions.
I plan to attack Sobe, the capital of the Franza Empire, as the first battle to appear in the new style of spiritual armor
Annelia said, this is actually the earliest idea
What Mithra said to Leach before is actually correct. Any armor technology is safest only when it is hidden in the laboratory. Once it is revealed, there is a possibility of leaking the secret, so some people think that it should be hidden.
However, taking out the new spiritual armor when attacking Sobe is relatively safe
According to the plan of the Joint Command, the Franza Empire will be the last target of attack; when it comes to Sobe, even if it is not the final battle, it will not be too far from the end of the war. The Franza people have the ability to be able to change the end of the war, and it is impossible to change the end of the war.
That's really great
Leach was finally satisfied that he didn't know anything about politics, so he could naturally see that Annelia took this opportunity to apologize to the princess.
The grudge has been eliminated, and the atmosphere in the Emerald Palace immediately became harmonious
Her Majesty the Queen proposed to establish a strategic alliance between Parkington and Monstock, and Leach naturally had to express something and say something politely like the friendly relations between the two countries.
The Monstock government has not been formed yet. The formal strategic alliance agreement will not be signed until the government is formed. The only thing Leach can now be founded is the list of originally requested assistance. Of course, some of the things above must be modified.
The interest rate of loans provided between strategic alliances is very cost-effective, so Leach intends to turn all the original aid request into loan assistance, which is free, but the quantity cannot be too much, so the loan is different. As long as there is a mortgage, it doesn't matter how much you borrow.
Leach is not worried that he can't pay back the loan Monstock is not good, his financial strength is still good
I want to tell you one more thing: Valedin has sent an envoy here, they intend to surrender unconditionally, but they are only willing to surrender to the alliance
Annelia suddenly throws this news
Did you agree?
Leach became a little nervous
This is what he is most worried about now
If the Valeding Empire surrendered at this time, Monstock would not be able to attack Valeding's land; and because Valeding surrendered to the alliance, in principle, the United Command decided who would send troops to take over control of Valeding. If control was handed over to Monstock at that time, it would undoubtedly make other countries in the alliance that wanted to surrender. The United Command would definitely consider this point.
So the alliance accepts surrender, which means that he and his country cannot take revenge. Fortunately, Annelia's answer was no
I know very well what justice should be done to the Valedin Empire for Monstoke, and sin will be punished. Since Monstoke has launched a counterattack on Valedin, then Monstoke should be responsible for the matter here; if the Valedinians want to surrender, they should also surrender to you.
Annelia gave Leach the promise he wanted: However, there is one thing I want to apologize for. The 30,000 troops and the brilliant knights we lent out in the early stage, for some reasons, we had to take back.
Leach was a little surprised, but he immediately realized that it should be related to the arrival of the special envoy of Valeding. It must be the benefit of the Valedings, which made Annelia fall in love with him.
He didn't care much about these men and horses. Dredava's army arrived soon. The 100,000 troops, plus the Independence Army and Hegette's troops, were enough to deal with the remaining power of Valedin; as for the group of brilliant knights, he did not intend to use them again. Since the war began, the knights of Monstock have been very aggrieved. Now the limelight has turned, and the situation is beneficial to them. This is the time for them to establish their merits, establish confidence and prestige.
But Leach wants to know why Annelia withdraws troops
What conditions did the special envoy of Valeding come up with?
Annelia doesn't intend to hide it
Although the conditions given by the Valeding Empire made her very concerned, the relationship with Monstock was obviously more important than that benefit.
Do you remember that the Iron Blood Corps was once stationed in Casmolina, the capital of Valedin?
Of course remember
How could Leach forget? He went to Casmolina for this incident, and it was this action that allowed him to get Trisley and let him know Lolaris
At that time, we caused some trouble for the Iron Blood Corps, neither we nor the Franza people expected that the Valeding Empire would take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters; they captured two Iron Blood Knights alive, and were very lucky to get some useful things from them.
Annelia casually told the secret that she was not worried about leaking the secret, and even if it was leaked, she wouldn't care, because she wouldn't have trouble, the one in trouble was Valedin.
Although Anelia was satisfied with the technology that was mastered in the hands of the Valedinians, she was not yet in a position to fail. The Franza Empire had not been long; the Franza Empire had certainly mastered much better technology than the little things that the Valedinians had in the hands of the Varedinians.
The big reason why she was willing to accept the deal was that the Valedians did not have high requirements. If the Valedians used surrender as a requirement, she would not consider it at all.
Annelia has guessed that Leach would not care too much about Parkinton's withdrawal. This is politics. The essence of politics is to maximize the interests.
Staying in the city of Sky for a week, Leach finally returned to Monstock, and he was full of loads.
On the third day of the city of Sky, there was a cold current from the north, and heavy snow fell. On the day of the return journey, it was very snowing.
The snow on the ground was very thick, and the road was blocked by snow, and only the railway could pass through.
Leach did not take the railway, he went back directly from the sky; he did not return to Peines, but landed at Stey and when he left, Steyn became extremely lively, especially at the northern station, where a train entered the station every quarter of an hour, and all those who came off the train were knights: reinforcements from Dredava, Hegette's men, and Independent Army
The Independence Army and Hegette's men all carried armor and various supplies, which was a bit too much. They all had empty hands, and even their uniforms were thin autumn clothes.
There was a row of transport vehicles parked next to the station, all of which were loaded with military coats, thick cotton quilts, felt blankets, galvanized kettles and lunch boxes.
The knights from Dredava lined up in a long queue to collect these things. The people who had already led them walked to the south. The barracks were more than ten kilometers away from the station. They wanted to walk there.
Leach saw this scene in the sky, and he was a little amused that the Dredava people were so smart that they had to take advantage of any advantage.
From the flying wing, Leach and Rollalis headed straight to the Cavaliers headquarters as soon as he entered the building, he saw Campbell and Erwin
Why are you two interested in coming here?
Leach did not hide his surprise. In his opinion, even if these two people were not in Peines's office, they should return to Berniebelle. After all, there was their territory.
Nowadays, there is nothing to do with Peines, but people come to complain all day long.
Elvin complains first
He said this well. At this moment, the factory of Peness was closed, the school was closed, the shops were closed, and the whole city was in a state of shutdown. Millions of people in and outside the city lived on the limited-supply of food
It's been a week, and Peness hasn't resumed operations yet? Can the factory start construction first? Although I have arrested many people, I am a political and business figure. Most of the factory owners are not involved?
Leach remembered that he had made an arrangement before leaving. According to his vision, when he came back, Peines could at least make the factory and school rerun. There was no raw materials or funds. Moreover, Peines's residents had already implemented the rationing system, food, fabric and even the wood for burning fires were rationed according to the head half a year ago. Those factories had been shut down for a long time.
Campbell answered this
The youth army has always had a good image among the people, so before leaving, Leach asked Campbell to help Lena stabilize the old man Peines's situation naturally knew something about Peines's situation. Leach was about to talk about the gains of his trip to Parkington, but saw Mary coming up from downstairs.
Lina holds Peines and Stein is in charge of Mary. This is the decision that the other members of the squad also perform their duties. Jiali is the supreme commander of the Independent Army and the faction leader. In name, even Lich is under her.
Dinah is responsible for specific military affairs. Now Dredava's army has arrived, and all the troops are about to move south. Dinah will also go with her. She is responsible for coordinating the three parties.
The three sisters will follow the south, and the Independent Army will be responsible for the specific war, Nora will naturally go south, and her scout regiment and Hassan's men complement each other. Margaret and Tidy are busy forming a new regiment. A group of knights who were about the same age as them have grown up. Some of these people are members of wealthy families, but more are from ordinary families, and they are most suitable for their subordinates. However, Mary came here to find Lych.
Now more than 400,000 people who returned from Peines are gathered outside the city. They are now clamoring to return to their original home. What do you think?
Mary's head gotten several times over this matter
More than 400,000 people? How can I get fast? It may take a week to walk this road from Peines to Stein?
Leach is indeed a little surprised
He originally thought that it would take a week for those who left Stein to go to Peines, and then stayed for at least ten days and half a month. He felt that he didn't have the chance to return to Stein, and it would take another week for him to come back, so it would take at least one and a half months.
It can only be blamed for you. You are too anxious to flatten the residential area. Not everyone goes to Peines. Some people left you to hurry to push down the house and then took Ariane and the others to enclose land. These people immediately thought that these people always had some contact with those who had left. At least one-third of the 400,000 people returned halfway, and the other one-third came to Peines and saw that the situation was wrong and turned around immediately.
Mary explains the causes and consequences
Leach is speechless as Mary said, there are too many smart people
How do you arrange it?
Leach asked
It is snowing heavily in the north now, so it is impossible for them to freeze in the snow. I built a refugee camp southwest of Stein. Fortunately, for the arrival of various troops, we prepared a large number of supplies, tents, camp beds, beddings, and military coats in advance. There is no shortage of food.
Mary told her arrangements, she did a lot of things
How are their situation?
Leach continued to ask
It's OK, at least much better than when Monstock surrendered. At that time, the people who escaped seemed to have collapsed, their faces were gray, and now they at least eat well and sleep well, and have the strength to protest from me.
Mary's answer comforts Leach
Five years of war and three years of displacement made the Monstock people much stronger
They selected more than a dozen representatives. Are you interested in meeting them?
Mary intends to push the problem to Leach, which was originally created by Leach.
No, I have to prepare for you to bring them to see me after 5 pm
Leach had no intention of shirking responsibility. These people lived in Stein for more than three years and were more likely to have a good impression of him and his father. They were all potential supporters. A ball of mud, a few pine wood, three or five pieces of cardboard, as well as scissors, glue and a lot of pigments. Leach locked himself in the room all afternoon. He was fiddling with these things. This time, he went to the city of Sky, and the harvest was absolutely huge.
The biggest gain is not the strategic alliance with Parkington, nor the new armor system idea, but the ancient architectural technology he obtained from Susan.
With the gentle kneading of his hands, the ball of mud quickly became more and more similar to the terrain around Peines. Every knight had to learn to make sand tables according to the map, so it was not difficult for him at all. He did not intend to make it too fine. After the rough terrain was undulating, he stopped and grabbed a handful of dark green sand and sprinkled it on it, which was considered a grass.
With a stretch of fingers, a sharp blade jumped out of the fingertips, Liqi slashed at a pine wood in the air, and only a slight sound was heard, the pine wood suddenly dispersed and turned into more than one hundred pieces of wood.
A strong wind popped out, bounced one of the pine wood into the air, and Leach made another false slash
In a blink of an eye, the pine wood was cut into large and small pieces and long and short wooden sticks.
The things cut with a high-frequency oscillation blade are like cream cut by a quick knife, and the fracture is flat and smooth, but Liqi's skills are really not very good. The cut pieces are big and small, and the thickness and length of the stick are not even.
His face turned slightly red. Fortunately, no one saw it next to him. Otherwise, he would have lost one piece of wood. Leach did not dare to play tricks anymore. He took another piece of wood. This time he carefully cut the wood into the required shape with one knife and one knife.
The first thing an armor maker needs to learn is to draw pictures, and then to make models Leach is very good at doing this. At that time, he used a pair of scissors and a few pieces of copper to make a dragon-style armor model, and from then on, he stepped into the circle of an armor maker.
Compared with others, Leach has two great advantages. One of them is that his right eye shows that there is an exploded diagram calculated by the Intelligent Brain on the screen. He only needs to cut the wood slices into the required shape according to the lines outlined by the Intelligent Brain, and then place it in the position given by the Intelligent Brain.
The other one is his knighthood, and the God King skill he practiced is all in all four categories: water, fire, earth and wind. He just pressed it with his fingers slightly. The glue applied on the wooden block will dry out in five or six seconds. The same is true for the same paint. Once applied, it will dry out immediately.
Soon, the outline of a city was revealed. When Leach came out of the room, he saw a group of people sitting in the first floor hall, including Erwin and Campbell, Mary, Ariana and Carmen. In addition, there were some people he didn't recognize at all. Leach said first: Come and help me move things.
Leach originally wanted to call a few knights on duty to come over, but he didn't expect that Erwin, Campbell, and Mary all came, which made Leach feel quite flattered.
Of course he didn't know that Elvin and Campbell would take the initiative because of their curiosity. In the morning, he asked someone to find various materials. Elvin and Campbell noticed that they guessed that Leitch would definitely make a model, and they also knew it was related to Stein, so what they thought was: Leitch must have made another big move.
Although they have different political views with Leach, they admire Leach's talent very much in the past because they were not in the same way as Leach, so they didn't have the opportunity to take the ride. This time they didn't want to miss the opportunity again. When they entered the room, the two old men's eyes lit up and they saw the model on the table.
There are two models in total, one is the urban model, and the other is a circular one-shaped one-piece apartment. Two models confirm each other. From the city model, we can see that most of the residential areas in Stein will be one-piece apartments in the future, some will be circular, some will be S-shaped, and some will be irregular in shape, but the structure is similar.
Repeatedly using a simple structure, but overall flexible and versatile, this is exactly the design style of Leach from the success of the dragon armor to the glory of Fairy Dragon 4, letting the world know the benefits of this design style are cheap, easy to manufacture on a large scale, and the construction speed is amazing...
Go to the conference room
Leach saw two old men in a daze, so he could only wake them up on the conference room on the top floor. This place was also the place where the counterattack of Peness was discussed at the time. There were only a dozen people sitting here. There were seven or eight people alone, so it seemed a little crowded.
However, small also has small benefits. When the two models were placed in the middle of the table, everyone could see clearly. When everyone sat down, Leach said: I have heard that most people didn’t care about Stein, a small place, and thought that the capital had more room for development. This is actually true. At this moment, there are only more than one million people in Perness, and many of them moved in from other places during the occupation of the Valedinians. We will not protect the interests of this group of people. So, Perness now has many empty houses.
He looked at the public opinion representatives
It was obvious that those people were not deceived by his words, and they sat indifferently, without any intention of expressing their opinions. Seeing these people so resolutely, Leach felt indescribable.
He was a little happy. After all, these people were optimistic about Stein's future and felt a little sad. If he had known this, why would he have been the first one?
Things that are easy to obtain will not be cherished. Leach has long made up his mind not to allow these people to easily obtain the right to live. He wants to catch them like fishing.
Because of its special geographical location, Stein is a major transportation route. Military supplies and various aid transported from the alliance countries will be transported here first. The reinforcements borrowed from Dredava will also gather here first. In addition, many factories will be moved from Bubka. The confidentiality level of these factories is very high, and there are more than 100,000 people working in these factories.
So in principle, Stein will be in a highly confidential state for a long time in the future.
When we choose to stay, we will ask them for their opinions to see if they are willing to accept the confidentiality regulations. If they are unwilling to leave, they must leave.
Sure enough, after these words, the public opinion representatives were all like a loss of their parents, and they changed their voices: However, after all, you have lived in Stein for three years and are half the masters here. Although you can't blame others for leaving here, you have to give you a way out when you come back.
He pointed to the model: This is Stein in the future. In my expectation, this will be a medium-sized city with a population of hundreds of thousands. In order to build this city as quickly as possible, I adopted a special design method
Leach took the model of the one-piece apartment and gently picked it up. The model was divided into two parts. He exposed the beams and columns inside with a random move, and took Stein's model in the air and carried it together. However, this time, he only revealed one of the areas. Because time was too fast, he could not make the entire model so detailed.
You see it, it's like building blocks...
Leach roughly explained his idea what he said was actually what Susan told him at the beginning
Erwin, Campbell and those public opinion representatives are not experts in the field of architecture. Leach said that at most they can understand 20% or 30% at most, but this does not prevent them from making predictions about Stein's future. It will undoubtedly be a unique city. At least in the ten years after the war, its development speed will exceed that of Monstock's original city, and even Peness cannot compare.
At this time, all the representatives of the public opinion regretted it. They regretted it so much that their hearts were bleeding. The two old men, Elvin and Campbell, had a different feeling. They were jealous of Campbell. Elvin was jealous and couldn't describe him. Of course, he knew what it meant to have this city in his hands.
That is wealth, endless wealth
What makes people feel even more bloody is that this city is in the north, and its prosperity needs to be nourished by large areas around it, but this city does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Northern Military Region.
At this time, Elvin finally understood why Leach used Bernie Bailey to exchange control of the Northern Military Region for control at that time, he felt that the deal was very cost-effective. Now he knew how stupid he was.
Although he knew that he had been deceived, Elvin had no choice. He now understood why he could not play Leach's other party's capital. He could turn into a treasure pot by pointing to a piece of wasteland. However, he didn't have the ability to do so at least he didn't dare to think about the design in front of him. He also didn't doubt whether these two models could be realized. Three years ago, he might have doubted, but after experiencing the 4th type of dragon armor, flight technology, Ming Wang, and Fairy Dragon, now it's not just him. Even the people in the alliance know that what this guy draws on the drawings is equal to the real thing, let alone even the model is made.
Elvin even knew that there would always be some people from the Alliance Intelligence Department around Leach. If this guy draws something casually in public, once he leaves, those from the Intelligence Department will come to clean up the scene immediately.
I hope to build most of the city's framework in this, two years, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
Leach finally said his purpose
Those public opinion representatives are not stupid. They know that Leach has been talking for a long time, and the focus is here
We wonder if we have made efforts, will we be eligible to settle here by the time Stein is built?
A public opinion representative asked first
Do you think the city I plan to build only one Stein?
Leach showed a proud look, and his aura suddenly increased to the extreme
A person's momentum is not only related to strength, but more importantly, his state of mind is that at this moment, Leach seems to be able to hold the entire Monstock in his heart. The majestic momentum not only makes a few representatives of public opinion breathless, but even old-fashioned brilliant knights like Elvin and Campbell were shocked by it.
In the central region, more than 90% of the cities have been destroyed, while in the southern region, it is slightly better. However, more than 60% of the cities have been destroyed. If these cities are completely destroyed, it will probably take 20 to 30 years, or even longer. Since I have such a good idea, why not shorten the reconstruction time as much as possible?
Leach's words were loud and clear. No matter the two old men or the representatives of the public opinion, they had no doubt about it. No matter what the purpose was, it would be great to do this. Elvin originally had a little bit of a sense of victory, but now it is completely gone. This is no longer a problem of strength. He was staring at the first place in the past, but Leach was obviously not like this. What he thought of was how to change this country.
Leach didn't know the shock he brought to Elvin. If he knew, he would probably have laughed to death. He was just trying to find something for his second half of his life. He didn't expect that he would misunderstand the number one enemy in the past and think that he was such a great person.
Leach turned his head to Ariana: Is Carmen busy now?
Bubka's factory is about to move here. Do you think she is busy?
Ariana's eyes were fixed on the two models. She was now willing but not capable: Your plan is too huge, and the entire business is using manpower, so it is probably not enough.
What suggestions do you have?
Leach asked
If it is a peace time, I would suggest you find some contractors and ask them to contract a separate area, but now...
Ariana spread her hands, she couldn't do anything
Now let alone Monstock lacks personnel in this field, other countries are also good at construction. They were recruited as soon as the war broke out, and all countries had endless fortifications, not to mention that the alliance built railways in three years and used a large number of talents in this field.
We can help a little
Campbell finally had the opportunity to snatch the words, which would mean that the Resistance Army would have some benefits. During the retreat, most of the technicians recruited by the army followed him to Berniebelle. The fortifications of the northern defense line were designed and built by these people.
After Bloom died, the resistance army fell apart. Erwin was determined to strengthen his own power, and he also knew that after Bloom died, it would be more and more difficult to get some supplies, so he did not intend to raise idle people at all. Relatively, Campbell had a little more consideration in business and knew that these talents were indispensable, so he took them down, but he didn't expect it to be useful now.
Didn’t this counterattack accept tens of thousands of prisoners? They were all knights from the former neutral country, so it would be no problem to let them be coolies.
Ariana suggested on the side that Leach had a heart-warming move, Ariana's suggestion made sense
If it were the Valedinians, he would not dare to let them do coolies. If the Valedinians rebel, his losses would be great, but these people who were originally neutral countries would have nothing to worry about.
Even if they rebel, even if they can escape, there will be no good results for them to eat. If the alliance countries will not take them in at all, they will most likely extradite them back to Monstock. At that time, there will be only one dead end waiting for them. If they escape back to the alliance, they will still be treated as cannon fodder. If they die on the battlefield, they will not be picked out to be executed on the spot after surrender, and will be dead.
This is a good method, just do it
Leach clapped his hands to decide this
It seems that prisoners from neutral countries will be very popular in the future
Campbell's brain was also fast, but he knew that he was not strong enough and had no chance to make this cheap, so he simply said that Campbell's lack of strength did not mean that others could not do it. Leach secretly kept this in his heart.
Isn't this good to do it?
Erwin frowned and said: The detained knights act as coolies, and this behavior will be despised like Valedin now. They hope others will preside over justice and will not pay attention to them.
Erwin's words do make some sense. In the world of knights, dignity is far more important than life. The Valedinians' random trampled on the dignity of knights made them quite isolated. Even in the league, there is a lack of supporters. This time, it is the best proof.
I have a way
Leach said: Those neutral countries that surrendered the coalition will not have any good ends in the future. If we can promise to retain some rights for them and provide some assistance in rebuilding their country, I believe most of the prisoners will be willing to contribute some strength.
Now Erwin has nothing to say that this is not slavery, but an exchange of interests, and he speculated that Leach would definitely tell the prisoners that the work they were doing at this moment would be of great help to the future reconstruction of their country.
Erwin is not worried about whether the prisoners will believe this. Leach wants to pull the words of the Witnesses. From Queen Anelia, Emperor Carlos, Sword Saint Max, to Espol, and Mrs. Shar, there is a strong convincing person who stands up at will.
This matter can be decided, now there is a general manager missing
Lich looked at Ariana. In his opinion, Ariana was the most suitable candidate, followed by Carmen
There are too many facts on my hands
Ariana shrugged: But, I can propose a candidate, how about Midi?
Leach then remembered that such things related to basic construction were more suitable for Midi than Carmen. Her ability was also unique. She could see through things underground. Stein was a basin among the mountains. The underground was thick rock layer, and the thickness of the soil layer above was uneven. In some places, it was more than ten meters thick. In many places, there were rocks below a foot, which had a pair of eyes that could see through the underground. It would be much more convenient during specific construction.
Besides, the seven sisters Rimeti's ability is considered to be middle-aged and superior. She read less books than Audrey and Carmen, but much stronger than other women. Mimeti's personality is relatively calm and seems to be not interested in anything, but she will do it with her heart if she throws something to her.
I also mention a candidate, let Sylvia manage the prisoners, how about it?
Campbell made another suggestion, of course, he was considering himself that he was like Erwin. He had never seen Stein's advantage before. Now that he knew, he naturally had some thoughts in his mind, and he didn't knock his teeth into his stomach like Erwin. He just proposed to get more neutral captives to act as coolies, just to lay a foreshadowing at this moment.
Although I knew Campbell's proposal was for his own plan, those prisoners really needed to be suppressed, and Leach did not want to use the Independence Army's troops, which was a waste of talent, so Sylvia really became a good candidate.
Besides, he would give Hegette some face and nodded.
