"What do you mean by moving the capital to Ferry City?" Chris looked at the bill in front of him, frowned at the ministers in front of him, and asked in confusion.
Defense Minister Kastner responded: "Considering the impact of the assassination, we think it is very meaningful for you to establish a capital in a place further away from the magical realm."
"If you think it's inappropriate, we can set up a capital in Fukou City, so that similar high-level magician assassinations will become easier to defend against." He looked at Chris and spoke about the defense plan of the Ministry of National Defense.
"Is this why you vetoed my personal inspection of Veronsa?" Chris did not continue to talk about this question. Instead, he looked at Des and others and asked a seemingly unrelated question.
A few days ago, he planned to go to the Veronsa area ceded by the Magic Empire to take a look, but his idea was suppressed by the Guards Command. Later, the Ministry of National Defense and the army also participated in this plan.
Chris's plan to go west had to be abandoned.
Deans nodded, admitted Chris's conjecture, and persuaded: "Yes, Your Majesty, if you go to the magic field, we cannot guarantee your basic safety. We only rely on the great magician Frentzberg.
It’s not enough.”
Ailan Hill, whose individual combat ability is not very strong, can only use the Forbidden Demon Realm to protect herself. This is a strategy that uses the characteristics of mortals to protect mortals.
According to Alan Hill's idea, when Alan Hill's individual combat capability improves in the future and he can protect His Majesty the Emperor, Chris will be allowed to go to the magic field.
Kastner also agreed with this view, nodded and said: "If you enter the magic field rashly, maybe the puppet empire will send killers to attack you, which will make us very passive."
Des also joined in at this time: "We had previously thought about whether it would be feasible if we could hire, or contact Gricken, a more advanced magician to protect your safety... But we finally thought that it would be better to send you
It is very unsafe to rely on Grecken for our safety."
"So I can't set foot in the field of magic for the rest of my life? Just because I'm afraid that a magician will assassinate me?" Chris smiled, pointed to the tip of his nose and asked the people in front of him.
Des on the side immediately answered: "Isn't this enough? Your Majesty! If something goes wrong with you, then we will fall into a leaderless situation... In thousands of years, we only have one chance, so we can't go out."
Any mistakes."
After looking at the men with firm eyes in front of him, Chris finally chose to compromise. He knew that the other party was doing his best, so he had no way of rejecting such good intentions.
So he could only nodded and agreed to part of the order: "Okay, I can understand your thoughts, but asking me to give up Siris and move the capital to Ferry City is a bit outrageous, isn't it?"
In his opinion, he was really reluctant to give up the city of Seris that he had run for so many years. He didn't know whether it was because he couldn't let go of the people here, or if he couldn't let go of the foundation here.
At this time, a minister said to Chris: "According to the information provided by Miss Vivian, it is very inconvenient for high-level magic experts to operate in the forbidden magic field. If their activity distance can be effectively increased, their magic will be consumed.
Energy can also effectively reduce their combat effectiveness."
Another minister in charge of education followed up and reported: "So, we made an accurate calculation. If you are in Fukou City, a strong person of Miss Vivian's level can only fight Frunzberg there.
A tie…”
Chris nodded, looked at the ministers who were working hard to ensure his safety, and asked: "In other words, if I go to Fukou City, a powerful magician like Vivian will not be able to do it after arriving in Fukou City.
Are you here to kill me?"
The minister nodded and replied: "Theoretically, that's the case. And we can also get on the boat at Fukou City and retreat to the sea farther east... The magicians can't continue flying eastward in Fukou City, so they can't pursue them...
In the end I had to give up and leave.”
"Okay, I understand what you mean. I won't insist on going to Veronsa. At least I won't go to Veronsa for inspection until I guarantee my own safety." Chris nodded, indicating his approval.
The words of these people.
Chris really felt that he was too frustrated. As an emperor, he couldn't even inspect his own territory. He had to be careful of assassins from the west. Since Vivian's arrival, this matter has been discussed repeatedly.
Put it on the agenda.
The ministers suggested that Chris move the capital to the Arant region further southeast, preferably to a port close to the coastline. In this way, after the troops discovered the invaders, Chris would have enough time to take refuge by boat.
"However, I think it is better not to discuss your suggestion to move the capital for the time being. If I move to Dukou City for safety, how can I explain it to the soldiers stationed in the far west?" He hesitated.
Waving his hand, he blocked the words of the ministers who wanted to continue to remonstrate.
"But I can approve your compromise plan. I don't want to die yet, so if it can guarantee that I won't die, I'm still willing to struggle." After seeing the alternative plan, Chris continued.
As he spoke, he pointed to the second plan: "I agree to move my headquarters to the outskirts, set up separate defenses, and use mines and anti-aircraft guns for intensive defense."
This set of defenses is simply city-level. Mines are laid all around, and then thick reinforced concrete fortifications are built at the core. Anti-aircraft guns are deployed around the fortifications to provide warning.
Detection instruments are installed on the thick fortifications, and a large number of explosives are placed at sensitive locations such as entrances to ensure Chris's absolute safety. The entire new fortress actually has its own independent power supply system, as well as access to the second underground floor.
There are also three levels of lifts.
Chris nodded while looking at it, and continued: "I also agree to set up a dedicated airport next to the base. After getting an early warning, we can take a special plane and leave immediately."
He knew that this way, the troops guarding him could take Chris away by plane, which was also a very thoughtful design.
When his passenger plane takes off, the fighter jets taking off from all nearby airports will follow Chris and retreat eastward. Hundreds of Me-109s are responsible for Chris's absolute safety in the sky: "At the same time, I also approved that Chris can be used when necessary.
All fighter units took off to escort..."
"Finally, I am also willing to allocate funds to build a heavily armored and powerful battleship. It will serve as my royal battleship and guard the ferry city to take me out to sea for refuge at any time." When he saw the last page, Chris even saw it.
A battleship built specifically to protect him.
With this battleship, after Chris's plane arrives at Ferry City, he can immediately leave the sea. Even if the magician has a way to pursue him, there is no good way to continue the pursuit.
You know, even a magician on par with Vivian, flying so far in the forbidden magic realm, would not have much magic reserves to attack a steel battleship full of artillery.
"Okay, are there any other issues that need to be discussed?" After he finished speaking, he continued to look at the other ministers and asked.
"The second topic is the actual facts about the population encouragement policy... We are working hard to restore the pre-war population, and we have promised to use the new tax law to prohibit taxing children. In terms of childbirth, we provide population subsidies, and the effect is very good
." The Minister of Taxation said and introduced.
The minister in charge of education also spoke up and talked about the progress of his work: "The education system has been supported. Although there is still a shortage of teachers in some areas, overall, our five-year compulsory education has been implemented very successfully.
Thanks to the magic ball of knowledge, in three years there will no longer be illiteracy in our country."
"However, our expenditure on education is really too large, even exceeding the expenditure on the military. Do we need to revise it?" Defense Minister Kastner asked.
"No! No modifications are needed! I will also appoint the corresponding Minister of Education. As long as Ireland exists for one day, our education will not stagnate for one day!" Chris waved his hand and rejected the proposal.
He looked at his ministers and emphasized: "After all, this is our foundation! We don't have the powerful fighting power of magicians, so we can only arm ourselves with knowledge... If we don't value knowledge,
Then one day we will also be eliminated by knowledge."
"Another topic is about the navy... Because we have a premonition that we will not use the navy much in the next ten years, so General Lawns' proposal... I think it is a bit too wasteful."
"What is he going to do? Apply for so much money to build 10 large steel warships? Who is he going to fight? Except for the little guys like the Jesno Empire and the Palak Empire, he has no opponents at all!" Desai
I also feel that investing money in the navy is really not cost-effective.
"Give him half of the approval! Invest the other half in Osa Port! Build the shipyard there. We must ensure that we can start building more navy immediately when needed!" Chris considered it for a moment and issued the order.
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Several ministers recorded Chris's order, and then continued to start the following topics. They had too many decisions to make, because Ailan Hill can be said to be moving forward every day.
