The road to national restoration that began at the end of the century

So a month later, the news that the entire territory of Semeru Island was recovered and that 110,000 people hiding in caves and basements were rescued soon came to the palace under construction in Sugui City.

Zelen: "Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought. The poisonous blast lice are afraid of the jet of liquid crystal! And they will explode as soon as they encounter such a jet. Also, the soldiers below are really smart enough to attack directly. The cannon shells are stuffed with liquefied crystal preparations to serve as sulfuric acid bombs. Yes, yes, our empire's soldiers are no longer a bunch of obedient idiots."

As Zelen said, the Japanese and Mai people who have experienced universal compulsory education during the Pa-O Republic era are definitely not a group of extremely ignorant fools who are addicted to illusory things.

Although such basic compulsory education has added a large burden to the finances of the Krurod Empire, it is worth it, and it is worth everyone's investment.

In order to take the national power of the Crurod Empire to a higher level, education is an inevitable threshold.

Miao Jie: "So, I want to thank you on behalf of the shamans. You will prevent them from having many opportunities to use healing magic in the future."

Zelen: "Well... uh... you also know, how many shamans do we Rimai people have? Only one shaman can be born out of 10,000 people, and the shamans here are not like you who can throw fireballs." Elites. The most they know is how to remove poison and use more advanced magic to turn themselves into petrified skin..."

Faced with Miao Jie's complaints, Zelen naturally began to find an excuse to evade. After all, he was right. If the Rimai people want to have magical power, they can't just grab a few randomly and train them.

Every Rimai person has one and only one chance to take the test and find out whether he can use magic.

It's a pity that Zelen is a Rimai who doesn't know how to do it. As for Miao Jie, she was a Rimai native who had a foundation of magical talent since she was born.

On the basis that the vast majority of the Japanese and Mai people basically have no magic power, the Krurod Empire naturally puts more energy into researching technology.

Especially in terms of firearms, the arms dealers of the Krorod Empire provided the empire with a sufficient amount of modern weapons and equipment.

Miao Jie: "Stop. Anyway, if you do this... I will wait for my grandma to cause trouble for you in the future."

Zelen: "Got it."

Listening to Miao Jie's complaints, Zelen felt helpless looking at the overall construction of the mansion that looked like a palace but had not yet been completed.

Because as His Majesty the Emperor, he is a guard of the palace outside, but inside he lives with Paula, Natalie, Nathalie, Miao Jie, and Marietta.

To be honest, even though the five of them had pretty faces and excellent figures that could not be hidden under their crisp clothes, Zelen knew that he would not be able to escape their control in the future.

But it's okay, he is not his grandfather, everything needs to be reported by the officials below, and he needs to relax and have fun at night. After delegating power to the Congress, he only needs to give up an emperor who rules but does not rule, has no actual power, and mainly plays a symbolic role.

After all, he doesn't know much about political affairs, and he can't understand what he hears, so he might as well delegate power directly and act as a mediator between the forces of various parties. And compared to staying in the palace, he actually prefers to work in the arsenal.

Especially after Lymington Arms Company became an arsenal under his own name, he was often responsible for the production of bullets there. After all, although making bullets was boring, he felt quite energetic.

And at night, when he was ready to rest, he wouldn't actually sleep with them in his arms. Because he is the emperor, the prime minister will specifically consult his opinion on certain matters. Therefore, he can put forward his own opinions for reference by the prime minister and Congress, but the decision-making power lies with Congress. Of course, he can specifically put pressure on the prime minister on certain specific matters.

Under the current circumstances, the empire has many things waiting for Congress to discuss with him, and to soak in their arms... at least he is not in the mood for now.

Of course, on this basis, he also has to reward some meritorious people. However, the list of persons awarded various awards is drawn up by Congress, but he can also put forward his own opinions and discuss them with Congress.

As for if he thinks certain actions of Congress are inappropriate, he can naturally issue a warning. By then, he will have to wait for the officials below to form a new team in order to produce new members of Congress and a new prime minister.

Therefore, being an emperor is not easy. One of the most difficult jobs in the world is to be an emperor.

But compared to these, on the Golden Moon Party side, Bai Mike, in order to thank himself for the idea to completely recover Semeru Island, said that he would send a granddaughter of the same age as himself.

What can Zelen do about this? Rejection is unlikely and unrealistic. What's more, people know that he is not afraid of magic attacks, so they hope that he will... Alas!

In short, his place will be very lively in the future.

Especially when he has to take a few of them to receive a lecture from Teacher Vivian tomorrow.

Therefore, he is looking forward to traveling to other places in the empire to see what the conditions are like in these places.

But compared to the fact that he had to continue to receive the education from Teacher Vivian, the members of Congress the next day were extremely excited about the performance of the liquefied crystal stone.

Envilla: "Senagu."

Senagu: "Don't look at me like this. I agree that Tiberite crystals should be classified as military controlled materials and be managed by the army. After all, we don't know where this thing comes from, nor what it has." What kind of practical effect. But since the soldiers below like it, I have nothing to say. Moreover, it is time for re-immigration and construction of Semeru Island. After all, our country is composed of islands. trade and ties must not be interrupted.”

Lux: "That means from now on, we have to consider recovering the Eastern Province, or the Northern Province."

Nwila: “My personal opinion, Eastern Province.”

Bourne: "Because the Eastern Province has a large Jaya Island with a lot of resources? Hmm... Although I also think this is a good choice, if we want to name this Jaya Island after Jaya Peak to the whole world, To recover the territory, the number of troops must be at least 240,000, and it must be a full army with sufficient army equipment.”

Speaking of Jaya Island, which has a land area of ​​more than 790,000 square kilometers, Byrne, the Minister of Defense, has a very headache.

Because there have always been cannibals on this island who have long threatened the lives of the people of the Crurod Empire. In addition, there is a continent to the south of the island, and there is another country on the continent that is thinking about how to deal with it. It invades.

The former Nether Emperor was plotting to take action against this country. He did not hesitate to use various methods of expropriation to raise sufficient military expenditures and supplies, and to forcefully recruit as many troops as possible from the civilian population. As a result, this led to the republican forces taking advantage of the dissatisfaction of the people and launching an armed coup with assistance from outside foreign forces to overthrow the rule of Emperor Neser.

If not for the fact that Jaya Island is an island with a large number of steep mountains, rich metal veins, and a large number of swamps suitable for transformation into rice planting areas, Bourne would not agree to the prime minister's decision.

However, the Northern Province... alas!

Bourne himself felt sad when he thought about it. When foreign enemies invaded, this area was the first to fall and the most serious casualties were in this area. Moreover, compared to the poisonous blastlice, the troops of the pig-headed people have made the Crurod Empire quite fearful until now.

First of all, it is not that most pig-headed people cannot be defeated. The problem is that the northern province is also composed of islands with smaller land areas and many rivers. The terrain of the archipelago forces the current Krorod Empire army to need more aircraft to gain air superiority to ensure that warships on the sea can retake one island after another.

But here comes the problem. The pig-headed man will drive a deformable fighter plane for air combat, as well as suppress group infantry combat on land. At the same time, compared to the black-haired kobolds who only harm civilians, these pig-headed men are more capable of using various jamming and eavesdropping devices to formulate relevant defense tactics...
