Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning.

Chapter 481 The First Knights are formed

With the end of Luo Ning's wedding, Wubei Territory, Moonlight Valley, Rapids Island and Purple Thunder Territory all became busy.

The construction of Wubei Port, land reclamation and spring ploughing, as well as mineral mining, smelting and transportation projects are all proceeding in an orderly manner.

Almost all the people in his territory who can contribute are busy.

Although it's hard work, most people enjoy being busy.

At least compared to three years ago, as long as they work harder, they will basically not go hungry. Some civilians can even indulge themselves and eat the coveted white bread.

Now that life has a goal, enthusiasm can be mobilized.

Especially after a series of stimulus policies such as land and fertility were introduced and strictly implemented, people's enthusiasm for having children has become extremely high.

After all, having more children means more grain, and we can build an extra house of 20 square meters. Isn’t that a positive effect?

Therefore, according to the estimate of Population Officer Omer, the population of the territory will see a significant increase this year.

It just so happened that two new crops, potatoes and rice, could be widely planted, producing enough food to cope with the explosive population growth.

Compared to the busy people in his territory, Roning was free instead.

During this period, he mainly took Blanche to travel around various territories, allowing the latter to understand the industrial structure of the territory and also to become familiar with the main persons in charge of each place.

After all, Blanche is a princess, so she should be accompanied by a group of knights as escorts.

But Bruno may have felt that Ronin was strong enough and did not need to be equipped with knights as escorts, so he only sent a few maids to serve him personally.

Fortunately, Missy was training griffins for the knights in Wubei Territory, so Blanche had an acquaintance there.

Time flies, and it is the end of May in a blink of an eye.

Since Roning and Blanche's honeymoon ended, they have lived here most of the time.

On the one hand, it was because there was a lot of work to be done here, and on the other hand, it was also at Blanche's request.

She wanted to help Ronin govern the territory, but she only had theoretical knowledge learned, and she needed a place to try it out.

"Ronin, the remaining 40,000 people that my father relocated to you have all arrived in Moonlight Valley. According to your previous arrangements, they were assigned to three places: Nazca Town, Pisa Town, and Tars Town."

Blanche rode the magic carpet back to the castle from the Government Hall and saw Roning drawing a design on the table.

"What are you drawing?"

Although she didn't quite understand it, she still thought the things in the picture were very cool.

Luo Ning put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "This thing is called a bicycle. It is a simple means of transportation that can facilitate people's travel."

Although we do not have the ability to produce pneumatic tires at this stage, other structures are easy to manufacture and although they are a bit hard, they can still be used.

Blanche was very curious. After spending time with Roning, she found that her husband had a lot of ideas in his head. Although he couldn't understand the things he drew, he always felt that they were very impressive.

After the two of them spent a few moments in tenderness, Blanche took out a stack of books from the space ring.

"This is the population register for the latest batch of people. Wilson didn't have time to come, so he asked the knight to send it to the Government Affairs Office and asked me to pass it to you."

Luo Ning's eyes lit up. "There should be more than 30,000 people coming this time, right? Of the 100,000 people your father relocated to me, only the last 20,000 are left."

The 40,000 people from Wubei Territory had been transported here not long ago, but Roning had not yet received the population registration.

However, even without Wu Beiling's population registration book, based on the number of people who arrived at Moonlight Valley today, the registered population in his territory would exceed 500,000.

Just as Roning saw the statistics, a line of text appeared in front of him:

[The achievement of "Prosperous Population" is achieved, attribute points +10000, energy essence +20000]

This is the eighth level of population prosperity achievements, which means that there is only one level left of this achievement.

Luo Ning took a look and saw that the reward was 30,000 attribute points and 60,000 energy essences, but the population required had to reach one million.

To meet this condition, it is no longer enough to just move people from somewhere else.

Ronin could either expand outward to occupy more cities and gain population, or he could only wait for the population of the territory to explode.

Based on the estimated explosive population growth rate of 15%, there will only be more people in the territory each year.

If he can maintain this growth rate, he will need to wait at least four or five years to affect a population of one million.

The time is not that long.

However, compared with the rapid progress in the previous three years, his strength improvement has now slowed down.

With the accumulation during this period, plus the reward for this achievement, Roning has accumulated 14448 attribute points, all of which have been added to the knight's progress. Now his progress is only at the Prideful Sun level (19460/20000).

And his magician level progress is still at Grand Mage (4000/30000).

If you want to become a legend, you still need more than 26,000 points.

At the Marquis's check-in speed, it would take nearly four years.

Luo Ning glanced at the achievement task interface. The next easy achievement to complete was [Siege the City and Capture the Stronghold]. However, even if he got a reward of 8000 attribute points, it would only shorten the time by one year.

If he wants to go faster, he either needs to become a Duke or kill a legendary extraordinary unit.

"Luoning, I heard that among the two recent groups of people, many are illegitimate children of nobles, and some are even impoverished nobles. If they join our territory, will it cause trouble?"

Blanche was a little worried. "These people must have families or forces secretly supporting them. You value these knowledgeable people and even use them. Will they do something that is disadvantageous to us in the end?"

Since Blanche got married, she has been considering issues from Roning's perspective, especially after going through this period of experience, she has a lot of issues to think about.

For the nobles, the people they employ are basically those they can trust.

On the contrary, those who are not trusted or whose backgrounds are unclear will be arranged outside the core circle no matter how capable they are.

Take Karada for example. He was excellent and had potential, but not only was he unable to join the Order of the Griffin, he was even excluded from the Royal Order of the Knights.

"Although what you said is possible, it is only under normal circumstances."

Roning smiled and held her in his arms. "A traitor may change the situation of a battle, but a strong man can completely reverse the situation. This is true on the battlefield, and in other fields as well."

"Also, although I employed them, I did not involve them in key positions or core technologies, so the harm they could cause was very limited."

In fact, Roning very much welcomes the continued support from the people behind these people, which can be regarded as a disguised way of bringing resources to the territory.

In order to gain Roning's trust, these people will even try their best to perform well, which will be more beneficial to the development of the territory.

"Dong dong~"

There was a knock on the door, and Tom's voice came from outside: "Sir, Commander Ridal is outside, and he wants to see you for something."

Blanche stood up from Roning's arms and said with a smile, "I'm going to take a rest. I won't disturb you anymore."

"Go ahead." Luo Ning said with a smile.

Soon, Rydar strode into the castle study.

Since Redar has more and more men under his command, the commander of Shanlin Town has gradually regained the aura of the commander of the Flame Expeditionary Force in his previous life.

The heavy armor, steady steps, resolute face and sharp eyes make it clear at first glance that he is a general who has been on many battles.

"What's wrong, Rydar? How come you have time to come here during your busy schedule?"

Ridar touched his chest and saluted, smiling and saying, "Sir, your First Knights have completed their expansion and training, and have acquired a certain combat capability."

Today, Ronin's status and prestige in the Kingdom of Alduin are no longer the same as before, and many professional knights have come to join him.

Coupled with the use of awakening potions, the number of junior knights under his command was very large, so he even cut the remuneration of the junior knights.

A typical order had 120 professional knights, 360 cavalry, 100 archers and 600 infantry.

Luo Ning expanded these categories to 200, 800, 200 and 1500 people respectively.

Therefore, it took Riedal nearly half a year to form and train the team.

"Harmon recently sent back new intelligence that the Kingdom of Tricia and the Molten Principality occupied by the Holy Storm Organization have stopped fighting. The specific situation is not yet clear, but it is certain that the other side has not reduced its defenses on the border between the two countries."

Roning said, "Although Crown Prince Garrett has been requesting to send troops to raid Misty City, His Majesty the King has suppressed the request on the pretext that he is still preparing. As a result, the shadow of war is still there, but the actual time of the war is uncertain."

Many people speculated that Bruno was waiting for Ronin's Knights to arrive.

Rydar nodded and said, "Sir, despite this, I think we can go to West Wind Hill first and set up defenses in this stronghold in advance."

The Hill of West Wind is a strategic military point that Bruno arranged for Ronin to garrison. Now a group of knights from the royal family is stationed there.

Roning just needs to go over and switch defense before the end of the year.

He thought for a moment and said, "How is the formation of the second knight group going?"

"The number of professional knights, cavalry, and infantry has reached the target, but the selection of archers is still in progress and it is estimated that it will take about a month. If the training time is included, it is estimated that it will take November to have initial combat capability."

"Then wait."

Luo Ning said: "I will inform Your Majesty in early August. You can set off for West Wind Hill around mid-August. During this period, you can take care of the relevant matters of the Second Knights."

Rydar nodded slowly, "That's good. I can continue to provide intensive training to the professional knights of the First Knight Order."
