Fifty thousand lords are heading to Bena City. If they want to take a magic airship, Surdak needs to recruit at least a hundred magic airships.
Not to mention Luyint City, even the entire Bena Province probably doesn't have that many magic airships at the moment.
Therefore, these armies can only enter Bena City by land. Without an order from the military headquarters, this army cannot even pass through other city territories.
Moreover, this lord's army was followed by a huge merchant group that was almost equal to the number of the army.
The biggest disadvantage of the lords' army in this alliance is the loose military discipline. The soldiers are okay, at least they will not do anything out of the ordinary. However, the lords' army seriously lacks restraint on the middle and high-level officers, and occasionally some officers will get involved.
Entering the merchant group, they followed the army, so some of the tents in the merchant house were like a second home for these officers.
This kind of bad habit can be seen everywhere in the lord army, but it cannot be effectively managed. However, Surdak has no time to care about it now. When they get to the Bailin plane, I believe Andrew, Samira and others will give them a good education.
of class.
The camp was broken up early in the morning, and the leading troops of the army lined up to set off.
It wasn't until the afternoon of that day that the last archer battalion at the Luyint City military camp left the camp.
Surdak did not set off with the army. He would leave Luyint City on a magic airship half a month later and arrive in Bena City in advance to join the lord's army.
During this period of time, he not only had to explain the government affairs of Luyint City in detail, but also handle the government affairs of Mukusuo City.
Mukuso City has now resumed normal taxation.
Due to the large number of adventure groups and business groups gathering in the city, fiscal revenue has exploded this month.
I believe there will be a relatively smooth transition period, and taxation will gradually decline to a stable state.
However, although Mukuso City has restored taxation, the city hall still gives these business groups some additional compensatory policies. For example, the same batch of goods will not be taxed every time they are traded, but will only be levied once, and the transaction tax will be levied
The amount is extremely low, only materials passing through the portal will have a 5% customs duty, etc.
The officials of Mukuso City resolutely implemented Suldak's ideas and revitalized commerce to drive the local economy, and they also tasted great benefits from this.
In fact, only the city hall received no fiscal revenue during the one-year tax-free period, and the residents of Mukuso City have benefited greatly from this matter.
The first benefit is that during the period of urban economic recovery, the employment rate of urban residents has remained extremely high.
This is obviously a loss of revenue for the city hall, but it has made the entire city better.
Although the biggest profits were made by the businessmen who brought capital into the market, new vitality sprouted throughout the city, and those living in the ruins of the city found their way back to life.
Surdak has now become a new generation of heroes in Mukuso City. Every time he rides a horse and walks in the streets of the city, once he is recognized, he will be watched like a star. People will stand on both sides of the street.
Applause to Surdak. So now every time Surdak goes out, he will take the magic caravan in the city hall.
In just one year, Mukusuo City has undergone earth-shaking changes.
It was rare for Surdak to have time to wander around Mukuso City, and he was accompanied only by a small team of knights from the guard camp.
The magic caravan stopped in front of the clock tower in the square under the cover of night. The clock tower was in ruins during the war, and even the giant bell on the roof was extremely damaged.
Now that Suldak returned here, he found that the entire bell tower had been completely renovated. The reliefs on the walls of the bell tower had been restored in great detail. The giant clock with four dials above his head was at 036.4.
The direction is inlaid with moonstone, so people can clearly see the direction of the pointer even at night.
The clockkeeper guarding the bell tower opened the door of the bell tower. Surdak took Siya to the top of the bell tower. The accompanying knights from the guard camp were waiting below with yawns. They followed Surdak and walked around the city.
After half a day, if it were normal times, these guard camp knights would have been able to go home and rest.
Surdak stood on the top of the bell tower, facing the cool night breeze and admiring the night view of Mukuso City.
After walking out of the bell tower and seeing the tired expressions of the knights in the guard camp, Suldak simply waved his hand and said: "Okay, you all should leave. Thea and I will just take a walk here."
The knights in the guard camp were still hesitant at first, but when they saw that Surdak was determined to do so, they dispersed one after another.
The magic caravan was still waiting on the street in the square, and Suldak dismissed the coachman again.
Then he and Thea walked on the street like this.
"This city has recovered very well. Although I have not seen the prosperous Mukuso city before, I think Mukuso now will be more vibrant than ever before."
Surdak sighed and said that the deepest memory in his heart was the dilapidated city that was riddled with holes by cavemen.
Thea didn't speak, just stayed with Suldak silently.
The original city wall of Mukuso City has become the city wall of the inner city, and the large slum area outside the city has been included by a brand-new city wall. The entire city of Mukuso City has almost tripled its size than before.
The city's main streets are brightly lit, forming criss-crossing bright lines at night...
Surdak did not wear the advanced magic pattern structure, but changed into a set of ordinary guard camp training leather armor. The distinctive broadsword and Gothic shield were also put into the magic waist bag. Siya was also wearing black
The robe looks a bit like a magic apprentice's attire, but it doesn't have the badge of a magic apprentice.
The two left the clock tower and walked through the city square into the noisy streets.
Mukuso was also particularly lively at night. The opera house in front seemed to have just finished. Crowds of people poured out of the opera house and went straight to the magic caravan parked on the street. In an instant, Surdak and Siya were surrounded.
In the sea of people.
If they want to pass through here, they can only slow down and move forward little by little with the crowd.
Some young people walked out of the opera house, their faces still unable to conceal their excitement. Apparently they were infected by the beautiful melody, and they couldn't help but discuss it after they walked out of the opera house.
A familiar figure stood among the young people. She was wearing a long white dress and long silk gloves on her arms. Her golden hair was pulled back, highlighting her exceptionally tall white neck.
Walking down the steps of the Opera House, Zeta had already seen Surdak, who was hit by the crowd and stranded in place.
He always seemed to be followed by that beautiful lady with long green hair, whose eyes were as clear as lake water, even Zeta was moved by them.
But at this time, Zeta couldn't help but cast his eyes on Suldak.
Especially when she knew that the simple knight in front of her was the great hero of Mukuso City and the great lord of the Ganbu plane, the aura around Surdak suddenly became brighter and dazzling.
Suldak felt someone was watching him, and when he turned around, he found Miss Zeta standing among a group of young people, just across the street.
Although there are many pedestrians and traffic, it is difficult to conceal the tall and outstanding Zeta.
Seeing her looking over, Miss Zeta smiled and nodded at Suldak with some embarrassment, and secretly waved her little hand.
It seems that he saw Zeta greeting people. The friends around him seemed to be asking Zeta in a low voice, and Zeta was also explaining in a low voice.
Surdak didn't want to stay on this street anymore, so he squeezed out of the lively opera house with Siya. Although Siya wanted to listen to an opera, they came at the wrong time. The next opera was at midnight.
It's still a long time before the show starts.
"What? You saw that young girl from the Latie family and you didn't even go over to say hello?" Siya teased, "I think she has a good impression of you!"
Seeing that Surdak wanted to defend, Siya added again: "Don't underestimate the intuition of a Naga spellweaver!"
Surdak said helplessly: "I can't show anyone who has a good impression of me. I have to show it. How many people are there in Mukuso City? Can I show it?"
Siya snorted softly: "I thought you would particularly like fresh and young souls..."
Surdak explained speechlessly: "I don't have such a special hobby. Speaking of this, I think it is necessary to go to Selia Village in the abandoned mining area to visit Ms. Naomi and Fauna before leaving Mukuso.
Earl Ke hopes to meet this necromancer."
As they talked, they walked around the Opera House. This was an auction house. It was completely opposite to the Opera House. It was very lively during the day but very deserted at night.
The building of the auction house is extremely grand, and even there is a small square at the entrance.
There were six three-meter-high stone statues erected in the small square. The six stone statues with different postures formed a circle. In the middle was a stone statue with three hell dogs. Only then did Surdak realize that these were six stone statues.
Scene of heavy armored infantry warriors besieging a three-headed hellhound.
Obviously the artist was a bit exaggerated when making the statue. Facing a three-headed hell dog, not to mention six heavy armored infantry soldiers, even sixty heavy armored infantry soldiers may not be able to defeat it.
When Suldak was about to pass through, he heard a young voice saying passionately:
"If I were given another chance to come back, I would be like them, holding a bloody knight's sword and cutting off the head of a hell dog."
He should be a young and passionate young man...
Surdak continued to walk forward, and happened to see Miss Zeta and her group of young friends again. Unexpectedly, they did not leave in the magic caravan, but ran to the auction house and continued to hang out.
Suldak thought he should walk over and say hello to Miss Zeta.
When he came out and greeted Zeta politely, there were several hostile looks from among the young people...
Suldak understood the young man's psychological feelings at this time very well. He didn't pay too much attention to it and left in a hurry with Siya.
Zeta, however, looked at the direction Suldak left, and was in a daze for a while.
The young man on the side said something jealous, but Zeta smiled and said nothing...
Everyone first chatted about opera, and then talked about the recent Mukuso heavy armored infantry regiment's expedition. Several young people were thankful that they had not yet served in the military. If they had served in the military, they would probably have to go from the Ganbu plane at this moment.
Fighting in another dimension is the most unlucky thing.
Zeta suddenly found that his interest was waning, and he didn't even want to say another word.
Looking at the empty streets, I could only sigh softly.
