The Earth Supplier of the Wizarding World - chapter 407
Yanxing turned to look at Carol, her blue eyes were shining with clear brilliance under the sun.
Sincerely do not participate in any distracting thoughts.
“It seems that all my efforts are worth it. If you really make up your mind, the Silvermane Kingdom needs a complete change.”
Kahlo sat down in the chair beside Yanxing and asked, “Does it need to be so aggressive? We have a war.”
Yanxing pulled out a few documents from the desk and handed them to Carol: “If you have determination, you can change at any time. If you are afraid of things, there will never be a good time.
My people have done a statistics. Following the kingdom’s existing logistics system, at least one-third of the materials will flow into the pockets of individuals, or more.
In fact, when supporting the nobles to lead the infrastructure, we have already discovered the problems inside. Therefore, the Eternal Grain Bank will seize the right to pay the loan funds instead of directly giving it to the nobles?
Now that some of these people have entered the war contracting company, you can look at the plans they gave and the plans we made. You really don’t know the convergence at all.
If you want political stability, I will follow the plan they gave. Anyway, these are the money of the kingdom.
If you want to rejuvenate the Silvermane Kingdom, you must have the courage to knock down the mansion and rebuild it. ”
“This will cause a civil war! It will also cause immeasurable losses to your investment… In the worst case, we will lose this country.”
Yanxing smiled and said: “I am willing to bear this kind of loss. Even if my current investment projects in the Silvermane Kingdom are broken, as long as the filth in the Silvermane Kingdom can be cleaned up, I think it is worth it.
As for losing this country, this is impossible. Change will bring opportunities to some people, there will always be people who will support us, and the thundering swamp will support us.
And I think now is a good time.
When they think you have compromised, hit them by surprise. ”
Carol tilted her head to admire Yanxing, pursing her lips and smiling: “Since this is your wish, I will definitely execute it.
Where do you think the knife should fall. ”
“Agricultural Reform!”
Land is the foundation of everything, and land is bound to the bottom civilians and peasants. Mastering the land means mastering the most basic public opinion at the bottom. The reason why the nobles dare to use the wool of the kingdom so unscrupulously is because they master the land.
The value of land is food.
But Kahlo couldn’t figure out why Yanshi would put his first knife on agriculture.
“I thought you would start with fighting corruption first.”
Yanxing explained: “The control of corruption affects the whole body, and it will make the people we are dealing with immediately understand our intentions.
Reform does not mean killing a group of people immediately.
The way the kingdom buys grain now is that the noble lords first collect grain from the peasants, and then the country collects grain from the noble lords. The pricing power for the purchase of grain is in the hands of the nobles, and they can also negotiate with the state at the same time.
Nobles can obtain cheap food from farmers by collecting rents and offering low prices, and then bribe officials from the kingdom to sell them to the kingdom at high prices.
When it comes to food, the peasants depend on the nobles, and the kingdom also depends on the nobles.
If the kingdom can directly set a fair price to purchase grain from the peasants, not only will there be no middleman, the nobleman, to make the difference, it will also separate the peasants from these nobles. ”
The clever Carol quickly understood what Yanxing meant.
If the peasants and the nobles can be separated to a certain extent, when the kingdom deals with the nobles, it will be difficult for them to obtain broad support from the peasants in the territory.
It will be easier to eradicate them when fighting a civil war.
“But the nobles would never agree.” Carol shook his head.
“The nobles will certainly not agree, and we will let them agree.”
Carol asked, “What should we do?”
Yanxing stated his plan: “You should know that Eternal has food, a lot of food. If I exempt the transportation fee and transport food to the Principality of Silvermane on a large scale, the food of the Kingdom of Silvermane can be saturated.
The kingdom does not need to buy grain from the nobles. When the grain is harvested next year, the nobles will not dare to buy grain from the farmers. At this time, the kingdom can use agricultural subsidies to collect grain directly from farmers at a price slightly higher than the price of grain collected by the nobility. ”
Carol said: “The greedy nobleman will definitely take away most of this money.”
“That is not our business. It is important that our money is not sent to the peasants through the hands of the nobles. As long as the peasants receive more money than in previous years, our goal will be achieved.”
Kahlo finally understood Yanxing’s intentions.
Let the peasants be grateful to the kingdom, not to the nobles.
This is the solution to a big problem.
“It seems that during this time, I should find a way to control more troops.”
“Yes, control more troops and try to promote as many officers without aristocratic background. After blocking the Griffin Heart Empire’s offensive, there will be a war gap when harvesting food in the summer. We will take advantage of this time difference, Fight a civil war at the fastest speed and thoroughly clean up the kingdom’s stubborn diseases.”
The plan made by Yanxing is highly feasible and the benefits are unprecedented.
If the corrupt old nobles can be completely eradicated, then Kahlo will gain power that she can’t even think of now.
The excitement made Carol’s breathing a little bit short, and she picked up the red wine to invite Yanxing: “Let’s drink a toast to this change first.”
Yanxing picked up the wine glass and bumped into Carol: “Cheers.”
After confirming that the Silvermane Kingdom would be purged and revolutionized, Yan Xing looked at the documents on the table again, and his mood suddenly became much better.
approve! approve!
In a few months, you guys will have to spit out how much you eat.
After Kahlo returned to the palace, he immediately promulgated the food procurement decree:
In response to the food crisis that may be brought about by the war, the Silvermane Kingdom will purchase grain from Eternal Link to supplement the national grain depot to ensure the nation’s food consumption for one year.
As soon as the decree was issued, it caused a shock among the nobles of the kingdom.
The country purchases so much grain from Eternal Receipt at one time, and will not purchase grain internally next year. Doesn’t this force the farmers to go bankrupt?
Don’t wait for this wave of public opinion to blow up.
The palace immediately issued a second decree: In order to protect farmers from too much loss, the kingdom will purchase grain from farmers at a price slightly lower than the market price.
In order to ensure that the compensation can be distributed to every peasant, the Kingdom will entrust the Eternal Grain Bank to issue the compensation.
At the same time, Queen Kahlo also pacified the nobles in private.
The country is in difficulty, borrowing a lot of money from Eternal to fight, and cannot buy food from them at the prices of previous years.
I hope the nobles can endure it and make a certain contribution to the victory of the kingdom.
In the next year, the Kingdom will definitely resume the grain procurement mode of previous years.
The nobles thought they had suffered a great loss in it, but it was hard to say too much.
It’s a fact that everyone owes money from Eternal Receipt.
It is also a fact that the kingdom owes more for the war. Valley
Can only recognize a year of bad luck.
However, if part of the compensation paid to farmers is collected, the loss is actually not too large.
Things did not cause trouble.
The main reason is that no one thinks that Queen Kahlo will choose to kill the old aristocracy in the country at this point in time.
This is simply the practice of digging one’s own grave.
The agricultural reforms of the Silvermane Kingdom are being promoted smoothly.
In order to paralyze the nobles, Yanxing was willing to spend money, which made the formation and operation of the war contracting company very smooth.
The war machine of the Silvermane Kingdom worked smoothly. Facing the aggressive attack of the Griffin Heart Empire, the morale of the soldiers of the Kingdom Army was high.
but! Just when Yanxing thought everything was fine.
In the end, what he least wanted to see happened in Beidi.
When Elledo commanded the elven army to attack the wild orcs, the attack went very smoothly.
The main force of the elves easily smashed the border mountains, stood at the southern foot of the mountains, and established three camps to turn the border mountains into their own background boards.
The cold in winter has greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the orc army, and the elves who came from the north side of the mountain to the south side were pleasantly surprised…It is too comfortable here.
However, Elledo has always abided by the strategic policy set by Yanxing, relying on the border mountains to deploy defenses on the spot, and did not take the initiative to launch an offensive too deep into the hinterland of the wilderness.
Everything was normal in the early stages of the war.
The savage orcs organized multiple counterattacks, but none of them shook the line of defense established by the elves.
Yanxing is relieved that Elledo hits this way. Coupled with all kinds of bad things in the Silvermane Kingdom, he couldn’t help but reduce his attention to the snowy border.
It’s just that the victory of turning over makes the snow elves arrogant.
The orcs have loose military discipline, backward weapons, and fighting spirit.
Especially in winter, it gets more and more cold, and many orcs exposed to the wild are stiff, and they become targets that will not be avoided.
The climate advantage is on the side of the elves.
The weapon advantage is on the side of the elves.
The morale advantage is on the side of the elves.
In front of the vast wild plains, the elves can fight a large-scale attack and annihilate the vigorous power of the orcs.
Even if the target of the attack is not set as the wild capital city, the target can be set as the mountain city.
From below the high winds, cut off the connection between Takayama City and the wilderness.
Without savage blood transfusions, Gaoshan City would not be able to support more than 100,000 troops.
After seeing the battle plan sent by his subordinates, Elledo broke the defense almost instantly.
He once asked Yanxing that Eternal Ling cooperated to attack Gaoshan City, but it was rejected.
If he can lead the soldiers in the snow to complete the blockade behind the mountain city, the orcs and human forces in the mountain city can only seek a decisive battle in order not to starve to death.
As long as the army in Gaoshan City moves, no matter which direction it is heading, the Eternal Neck will inevitably move.
Although doing so will make Yanxing angry, it can wipe out all the elite orcs in Gaoshan City, and the wild will be slaughtered by the snow.
As for violating Yanxing’s strategy…
Elledo believes that Snow is an important member of the Thunder League, which is very important to the Eternal Leader. Doing this on your own will not cause too much damage to the alliance relationship, but it can create an immortal merit for the snowfield.
The elves can leave the bitter cold snow and migrate to the wilder plains that are warmer and habitable.
As a result, Elledo did not report his battle plan to Yanxing, but secretly prepared not to be noticed by the eternal leader’s liaison staff.
On the day of the attack, the three large camps built by the snowfield at the southern foot of the Border Mountains simultaneously attacked the orcs.
The main force of the two armies is directed at the wild capital, and they have a posture of destroying the country in one fell swoop, forcing the orcs to concentrate their forces in the direction of the capital.
The main force of the other army headed south, blocking the back road of Gaoshan City.
As long as the defenders in Gaoshan City move, the purpose of this war will be achieved.
At the beginning of the battle, the elves’ attack was really to destroy them.
Under the pressure of the tank group charge, the orcs had no ability to fight back, and they were chased by the elves and ran back.
Countless bodies and supplies were left along the way.
But the elves still miscalculated the vastness of the wild plains, and did not have the experience of making such a deep advance. In the process of chasing the defeated orcs, the team stretched longer and dispersed, and everything was just as Yanxing had said to Elledo.
The logistics couldn’t keep up, so the attacking elven army had to stop and wait for the supply convoy.
It was only at this time that Yanxing knew that Xuedi had initiated a full-scale attack on the orcs, but still did not know Elledo’s attack plan.
He put down his work in Danling City, flew to the Eternal Neck urgently, and called his generals for a military meeting.
Discuss how to respond to the changes in the next battle.
Attacking Gaoshan City, opening up the connection with the main force of the snowy border, and protecting the safety of the flank of allies have become what the eternal leader has to do.
But without waiting for Eternal Leader to respond, the situation in the entire snowfield took a turn for the worse in an instant.
In the wild battlefield, the high tower in the cloud sent a large number of mages to directly participate in the battle, and the orcs sent the true main force that they had always hidden to attack the scattered elves from all directions.
In the snow, some royal elves initiated a coup, and the royal court fell into chaos.
Moreover, a large number of underground races came to the surface from the underground, looting the cities and villages of the elves like robbers.
These underground races are not many, but they are all very elite. They are all equipped with alchemy weapons from the high towers in the clouds, wearing thick cotton clothes, and they are not afraid of the cold of winter at all.
Most of the snow elves’ army is on the frontier battlefield, and the rest are concentrated in Frost Leaf City and the Royal Court. There is almost no regular army in other places.
The weapons are also old cold weapons.
At this moment, Yanxing realized that this was a long-prepared plan to crush the snow elves.
In the border war, the orcs have been losing battles to lure the elves to attack, to offset the elves’ weapon advantages with space, and to expose their disadvantages of less force.
There are only two choices before Yanxing.
The first is to attack the mountain city and rescue the main force of the elves who fell into the trap and fight hard.
The second is to enter the snowfield with arms, go to the elf king’s court to quell the rebellion, and destroy the stray bandits in the dungeon.
Hold this important ally.
