Start as Inherited Baroness

Simon immediately took the letter, removed the fire paint, and cast the poison detection spell. After finding no abnormalities, he took out the parchment and looked at it.

After about ten minutes, he put down the parchment and frowned slightly.

"The orcs invaded the border, and Marquis Val asked me to borrow troops." Simon said softly.

"Ah!?" Ma De and others were surprised when they heard this.

"It's early spring now. What can the orcs gain by attacking at this time..." Mader wondered.

“Perhaps they feel that the human race is relatively weak at this time.

There are no borrowed troops, but bronze stars and bronze armor can be provided.

Ma De, hurry up and make a thousand pairs of bronze armor and ten carts of bronze stars and send them to Marquis Val. Simon said softly.

"Yes! Sir! I will prepare everything as soon as possible."

Ma De responded and took the order.

"Next, Sarit, Airey, and Hilde will step up their military training and get ready for battle!

Wall manages the creation of various offensive and defensive equipment without making mistakes!

Okay, let's break up the meeting and go do your own business. "

Then, Simon ordered again.

"Yes! My lord!" All the knights responded in unison, stood up and saluted, and then left the Lord's Hall one after another.

Simon went straight to the study behind the hall and wrote a reply to Marquis Val.

He explained the difficulties he was currently encountering truthfully, omitting some details of course, and vented his bitterness sincerely.

It said that there were no troops to send, but copper mines were found in the territory, which could provide copper stars and some bronze armors, etc.

As his current biggest political supporter, Marquis de Val would be better not to offend easily.

You must comfort them carefully and give them more bronze stars.

After Simon sealed the letter with fire paint, he ordered: "Mylan! Give this letter to Mader and ask him to send it to Marquis Val in Morningstar City."

Mailan, who was guarding outside the door, heard the words and immediately pushed the door open. After receiving the letter, he said respectfully: "Yes! Sir, I will go right away."

After finishing this matter, Simon sat in his seat and thought about it carefully, then stood up to inspect the territory.

At his first stop, he went to the Drama Theater, which he built into an academy, where more than 500 young people or teenagers received training.

This winter, Simon really had a taste of being a teacher.

Thirty of the mage seeds have all become real mage, twenty-seven of them are entry-level mage, and three are intermediate mage.

The highest level mage in the entire Fort of Fortitude is Kailin. Her magic level is nine, which means she has entered the level of a high mage.

Next is Winnis, with level eight magic skills.

Nowadays, with the Book of Illusions as the core of knowledge, the Fort Brave Mage Group can be regarded as a medium-sized mage sect.

The only shortcoming is that there are no gray-robed proficiency level or above figures to carry the cauldron, but this is only a matter of time.

With the blessing of the panel, it will happen sooner or later.

In addition, more than 300 other students participated in military training, and more than 200 students studied internal affairs management.

In the future, everyone here will be a middle- and low-level military officer or a town-level administrative officer or tax official.

Simon's talent training process is on the right track, and these people are all in the team column, so there is no need to worry about rebellion.

"Greetings to the Earl!" The students who were in class saw Simon arriving and stood up to salute respectfully.

Simon glanced around, said some inspiring words, drew a circle of pie, and left with satisfaction.

"The mage group has been formed. Let them go out with the army in this war.

The East Guards Legion is assigned one intermediate mage and nine entry-level mages, and the West Guards Legion is assigned five entry-level mages.

In addition, one person is stationed at Copperforge Keep, one person is stationed at Starfire Keep, one person is stationed at Blacksmith Fort, one person is stationed at South Fort, and one person is stationed at West Fort.

You take four people and form them into the Valiant Guards, and the remaining five stay at Fort Valiant, leaving Delly behind to teach other mage seeds. "

Simon said to the mage instructor Tailsen who was following him.

Delly is the only mid-level female mage in the mage group. She is average-looking, has no breasts, no hips, and freckles on her face.

"Yes! Master! The slave will arrange it well."

He responded piously. This person's loyalty reached the point of die-hard loyalty, and there was almost no possibility of active betrayal.

Simon nodded, and immediately led the people out of the theater, inspecting each place.

The war was coming, and he had to have a clear understanding of his territory.

Generally speaking, the development is very good. The wind-powered forging hammer has been developed and has been put into use in Blacksmith Fort for more than two months. The efficiency of forging iron has been greatly improved.

And also adopts the assembly line production method.

More than 800 blacksmiths with varying levels of skill can create dozens of pairs of heavy armor and hundreds of sets of iron-clad light armor every day.

There is no chain armor made, because this thing is a laborious task, the manufacturing efficiency is too low, and the protective ability is mediocre.

Moreover, the heavy armor they made was different from what was popular on the market. The chest was made of full plate armor, and the other parts were made of iron armor.

Due to quasi-scale production, a pair of heavy armor requires the cooperation of hundreds of blacksmiths to complete.

As a result, the joint joints are not made carefully, and the arms and thighs are not flexible enough to extend.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, only the chest armor is made of full plate armor, and the other skirt armor, shoulder pads, leg guards, etc. are all iron-clad heavy armor.

There are less than a thousand blacksmiths, and they can produce dozens of pairs of heavy armor a day. This was something beyond people's imagination in the previous era when a single person made it by hand.

In addition, windmills have also been put into use, freeing up a lot of labor.

In the past, it took seven or eight people to grind rye, but now only two or three people are needed, and the production capacity has increased several times, which is incomparable.

A few days later, Simon inspected the production department of the territory and felt confident.

"Oh! Prince Seger is just a mere prince, not worth mentioning."

Simon glanced at the thousands of heavily armored brave guards on the training ground, sneered, and said in his heart.

One day, he was looking at the map in the lord's hall, and Mailan, who was guarding outside the door, suddenly came to report: "My Lord! Princess Adela has arrived outside the city."

"Hmm? Let her in, guard the door, and don't let others get close." Simon smiled and ordered.

"Yes! My Lord!" Mailan responded and left.

Not long after, Adela, who looked elegant and luxurious, swayed into the lord's hall, and Mailan immediately closed the door tightly.

"I really overestimated Segel. I didn't expect him to issue such a stupid decree.

We have many allies. I'm afraid no lord will allow him to arbitrarily reduce his fiefdom.

Don't worry! I have contacted all the barons directly under the jurisdiction of West Seger, and five of them have responded. They all oppose Segel's decree.

Besides, I still have 8,000 soldiers under my command. Segel can't do anything to us."

Adela sat on Simon's lap, and he took the opportunity to hug her waist, and the two chatted face to face.

"What's the situation of the battle between the Lionheart Legion and the Green Forest Brotherhood?

Are there any important events happening in various parts of the kingdom?"

Simon's strange hand began to move, and he asked softly at the same time.

In fact, he also has a certain source of information, and this time he just confirmed it with each other.

"The situation in the kingdom recently..."
