Everyone was relieved to find the prince. Yes, although the news was not announced at all, many ministers had actually been vaguely aware of the situation. It was not normal for the emperor to go out, and he was still so anxious.
Many ministers actually have some channels in the palace to go out. Of course, they know these things just to prepare in advance. If nothing happens, they will naturally continue to pretend they don't know.
Of course, this matter is not over yet. After all, Xiao Linrui can fly now, and it is quite uncomfortable to fly for a moment from time to time. If you don't care about him, he will fly away and disappear again. You can leave him alone, it is quite difficult to control.
Regarding this, Linton thought about it and adopted the simplest method, which is the pain management method, which is simply a beating. Simply put, as long as little Lin Rui here flies, Linton will go over and hit him PP.
Of course he cried when he was beaten, and then he was coaxed by Yalan. Then he was beaten again, and then coaxed again after the beating. After several times in a row, Xiaolin Rui probably noticed that he would be beaten as soon as he flew, so he stopped flying.
He was too young and couldn't teach him any truth. Anyway, he wouldn't do it if he knew it hurt. For this reason, Linton also watched the child for three days, and finally it seemed that Xiao Linrui understood this truth. This time
It seems like I haven't seen him flying around since the past four days.
To be honest, Linton is not worried about anything really happening to this little guy. With his current physical strength, it would be difficult for anyone to embarrass him. But it is not him who is worried, but Yalan. This time
After the accident, Yalan obviously paid closer attention to the child. She almost didn't want Xiao Linrui to leave her sight for a moment. Of course, the government affairs side also continued to be neglected.
The emperor is so irresponsible, but nothing major happened to the country. The main reason is that the current highest level of governance in the Holy Empire of Yilan has become a parliamentary system, although the nominal supreme ruler is Emperor Yilan.
, but the people who actually issued the orders were her, Linton, her two sisters, and sometimes even Garsain. No matter who spoke, the ministers below would default to the emperor's order, and they would just carry it out anyway.
It seems that this form is a bit bad. After all, how can the imperial power be dispersed casually? However, the actual situation is that no one among the five people wants to be the emperor. It happens to be such a special situation that the five people have no motivation to fight for power. On the contrary,
Some weird harmony.
Of course, the political affairs these days are basically handled by Linton. After all, although others don't think so, Linton himself still feels that he is responsible for Xiao Linrui's disappearance. Mainly, Yalan has to be responsible for watching.
The child has to deal with government affairs again, so too many things have been left to her. Now that Linton is free, he can share some of the tasks.
Naturally, there are other selfish motives. For example, Linton is mainly concerned about the construction of the new city, which is related to his own mission after all. Fortunately, the progress of this matter seems to be much smoother than expected.
The current construction of the new city is going very smoothly, with almost no troubles.
The current new city has not yet been completed, but the population has reached about 140,000, which is already considered a medium-sized city in this world. Of course, half of the 140,000 people are now laborers in the construction of the city, and another 1
Ten thousand is the army, and the rest is the population that has just moved in.
There are so many troops who are mainly laborers who built the city, and there are a lot of slaves among them. These slaves naturally need to be guarded, so these troops are not actually the city guards of the city, they are just people borrowed from other establishments.
The city still lacks a lot of things, especially people, whether they are residents, troops, or officials.
Lack of population. As a Chinese, Linton really felt a little strange about such a situation. However, after careful study, Linton found that this was not the essence of the problem. What is lacking in the new city now seems to be population.
In fact, the most fundamental reason is lack of time.
As a city with an extremely advantageous geographical location and located on various transportation thoroughfares, the new city does not actually have an accurate population. First of all, there is no shortage of people in the empire. The population is large, but they have not yet gathered in this new city.
On the one hand, it is because of the lack of information. There is no Internet in this world. It takes enough time for people to know that a new city has been built here. On the other hand, transportation is also a big problem. Although this city uses the road system of the previous city,
There is no need to build a separate building, but if you want to move to this city, most people use walking. It is possible to walk to this far away area for several months.
In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, if you don't care about anything and wait for two or three years, the city will definitely develop on its own, and there won't be any population problems. But the problem is that what Linton lacks is time. He still has other tasks.
It had to be paid in less than a month, and before that he had to make the city look more like a city.
As mentioned before, he has actually met all the requirements of the mission, such as rebirth points, shops and other necessary requirements. Although there are no people in the city now for the weapons shops and other shops he opened,
There is not much business, but Uncle Eke has always been running it for Linton, and it is a loss-making one. Now Linton has not handed in any tasks and is just doing background correction work, hoping to get a high evaluation.
The current construction in the city is mainly in housing. A lot of houses have been built. In fact, laborers other than slaves are already being allocated houses. What is lacking now is people to live in. Linton needs exactly what he needs
It's not about population, it's about increasing the population as much as possible in less than a month.
Originally, this was a headache for Linton because he really didn't know what to do. He even thought about forcibly moving a group of people from other cities to fill up the population first. But he already knew this.
There won't be too many people cooperating with this matter. What if they don't cooperate and this group of people breaks out? What should we do if there is a civil uprising? Send troops to suppress it? What Linton lacks is time, how can he have the time to suppress it with the army?
But just when he had a headache, good news suddenly came. Yes, good news from the front line. The news was like this. Didn’t the Holy Empire of Elan declare war with the Elf Kingdom of Varashi before?
Well, the two sides are preparing to gather their forces for war, but the forces on the side of the Holy Empire of Yilan have not yet been assembled. The army has already been mobilized, but it has not reached the north yet.
Compared to the Holy Empire of Elan, the Elf Wallahi Kingdom gathered its troops much faster, of course, because they were fighting on their own, and their troops were gathered at once.
So after they have assembled first, what will they do next? Prepare fortifications for the upcoming human attack? Of course not. The elven Varashi Kingdom seems not to think that the human troops can defeat their invincible elven army.
It may develop into a situation where their border is invaded by human troops, so what kind of defenses should they prepare? Since their troops have been assembled first, of course they should fight out first and change the location of the war to human territory.
The decision of the elves, let’s not talk about whether they are arrogant or not, the first unlucky person is not the people on the border of the human race. The first unlucky person is the Kingdom of Sardinia.
It is the small country that is located in the middle of the border between the two countries and was coerced by the Holy Empire of Elan to join the war. Originally, the elves and humans were not bordering each other. If there was a war, this small country would naturally be a very important battlefield. So the elves thought about it first.
Let’s take over this small country.
The Kingdom of Sardinia is naturally in trouble. Before the human army arrives, the elves have already attacked. Their country's army has also said before that a total of 800 people have been mobilized to face the elves.
Army, 50,000. How do you plan to fight? The king of the Kingdom of Sardinia also wants to know.
After receiving this news, the King of the Kingdom of Sardinia and Wende ran away with his people, because they were on the border of the Elf Kingdom and often dealt with these elves. They knew that these elves looked down on the human race and treated them poorly.
It is also very ruthless. For example, as long as the civilians on their side dare to enter the forest, the elves will be shot when they find out, and they will not give you an explanation at all. In this situation, the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia is worried that he has not waited for the human race.
When the troops arrived, he himself was killed first.
Without any defensive force, the advancement of the elves was naturally very smooth, and the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia who ran away here must not be able to solve the current problem, so he quickly sent a distress letter to the Holy Empire of Yilan.
The meaning is that your army will come quickly, our country will be completely destroyed.
Now this letter for help is on Linton's desk. Generally speaking, there is nothing that can be done about this situation. It's not like the human race won't send out troops. The 340,000 troops are all on the way. However, the size of the army is really too large, making movement more troublesome.
, it will take time to gather, so we have no choice but to wait, right? The most we can do is to send a letter to comfort the King of Sardinia.
But when Linton saw this letter for help, his first thought was not to save the king of the Kingdom of Sardinia, but... the population of the Kingdom of Sardinia.
Yes, although the Kingdom of Sardinia is a small country with a sparse population, it is still a country. What’s more important is that the culture of the Kingdom of Sardinia is actually not very different from that of the empire. If we can
If all the people from this country were deceived, the population of Xincheng could increase by hundreds of thousands. Wouldn't the gap be filled immediately?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was a God-given opportunity. Linton didn't hesitate in getting ready and took action immediately.
