I, the sword in the stone, want to take the knight king

: War Without Smoke

Wales, in the mountains where the Holy Kingdom of Britain is located.

When the withered and yellow leaves piled up a thick layer on the ground.

It was only later that people realized that before they knew it, the time had come to late autumn.

——This is a fairly peaceful autumn.

Although there are still many unresolved conflicts within the kingdom, under the leadership of Artoria, the overall development trend of the kingdom is still showing a high-spirited and upward trend.

In this regard, the villages that have gradually become lively and prosperous are the best proof.

After three full seasons of struggle, the people finally accumulated enough food in their hands to be called rich, so that they could survive the whole winter in peace.

At the same time, the construction of basic sanitation facilities has also given this newborn kingdom a completely different look.

Hospitals, bathhouses, sewers, public toilets… Under Char’s arrangement and Morgan’s planning, public facilities have sprung up one after another.

These ordinary facilities are not as magnificent as a palace, not as sacred as a church, and they do not want to be as eye-catching as a tall statue.

But after the 05 has passed the test of time, people will find out. These seemingly inconspicuous buildings are the real conscience of a kingdom.

Everyone can benefit from these buildings.

At the same time, because most people have rich food on hand.

Commercial activities in the kingdom have also gradually become active.

Those caravans from other kingdoms rely on all kinds of new gadgets in their hands. A large amount of food was exchanged here in the Holy British Kingdom, and they made a lot of money.

Brightly colored cloth is the favorite of women; and for men, a handy tool can make them pay a month’s ration in exchange.

As for the children…they want to buy everything, but they can’t afford anything.

With no food and no money, they could only watch one after another carriage full of goods pass by them, drooling enviously.

For most people, this kind of life is mostly leisurely and pleasant.

But for some real people, this kind of over-prosperous trade activities is obviously full of evil intentions.

“These caravans come too frequently.”

Inside the government affairs hall.

Looking at a trade application letter in his hand, Morgan frowned.

On the face of it, this is a normal letter, some king’s applicationTraded with the Holy Kingdom of Britain.

But when there were more than a dozen trade application letters on the table with roughly the same wording, only with a slightly different signature… the development of the matter seemed to be a little bit wrong.

“So, what are they planning?”

Morgan was thinking while looking for the locations of these countries on the map.

She scanned around and found that a dozen countries, large and small, completely surrounded the Holy Kingdom of Britain.

——At this time, if she still doesn’t understand what these people are planning, she can take the initiative to resign and find someone to marry and play with children.

“Stupid fellows.”

She cursed silently in her heart.

But how to deal with these stupid guys… This is not something she can consider.

“you go……”

She raised her head and looked at the new secretary with a dull expression, who was completely different from Dinah, but she sighed helplessly.

“never mind.”

“I’ll go there myself.”

Ten minutes later.

Without any surprise, Morgan managed to find Arturia in the training ground.

——Sometimes, she really doesn’t understand why Arturia competes with those trees and rocks.

If she really has nowhere to go, why doesn’t she go to trouble those British princes?

That would save her a lot of worry.

And now—

“king.”

When the arrogant Princess Camelot put on a businesslike look, it was enough to show how serious the matter was:

“I think a new war has already begun.”

“???”

…

This is indeed a war.

It has no smoke, nor does it see any blood.

But its existence is far more terrifying than those wars in the true sense.

After all, the fighting on the battlefield is nothing more than a thousand or eight hundred casualties.

But the economic war… If this thing is not handled well, the subjugation of the country is also a very simple matter.

“trade war.”

This is the official name for this kind of economic war in later generations, and it may sound a little lofty.

But in essence, it is just a way of plundering with a different skin.

A big country with abundant resources and a solid economic foundation. Using its strong capital, it exports capital to those countries with single resources and relatively weak economic foundations, so as to fundamentally grasp the economic lifeline of this country in a relatively obscure way.

The most classic example is the “Tulip” incident that occurred in the seventeenth century.

As the first large-scale financial crisis in human history, it directly led to the decline of a business empire.

——Char originally thought that this kind of situation would only appear in the era after the rise of the bourgeoisie.

Unexpectedly, on this island where the Age of Gods has not yet come to an end, such “advanced” thinking has already emerged.

“Wonderful!”

After listening to Morgan’s brief introduction of the situation, Shaar clapped his hands and praised:

“The king of Britain on the battlefield is indeed invincible.”

“But as long as she is still the king, and she still wants to lead Britain as a king, there will still be weaknesses in her body.”

“Her kingdom is her greatest weakness.”

“A dozen princes and kings unite together to export and squeeze capital from an emerging kingdom, thereby minimizing the country’s potential.”

“At that time, Artoria Pendoragon will still be the Red Dragon King of this island and will be respected by everyone.”

“But the foundation of this country is firmly controlled by other kings. As a result, the so-called king of the red dragon can only become a figure of a god or a high-level thug.”

“Who came up with this bad idea?”

“Artoria, you must capture him and make him your treasurer.”

Xia Ya said excitedly.

Is there any reason to let such a talent who is so good that he can be called a disaster be let go? .
