Warhammer Throne

As the regent of the kingdom appointed by the Knight King, Raun has had a very unhappy period of time.

During this time, what are the plans of the northern knight nobles headed by Raun? Obviously mentioned above, it is planned to come to Orbien expedition, Raun wants to change his embarrassing position, the northern nobles want to gain more benefits and improve their status, serfs and freedmen want To change destiny, everyone wants to fight Orbien.

According to intelligence, there are very rich magical veins and various gold and silver treasures on Orbion Island. It even includes many fascinating ancient holy relics. The islands now occupy Orbion Island, except for a few in the south. Except for the Mantra Tribe and the Empire’s newly-built territory "Newland", the remaining area has been basically occupied by the northern barbarian tribe "Wanaheimlin". This barbarian tribe is powerful and rich in predators and spears and looters. The hunter, whose tribal chief is Leif Gulbranson, is a powerful legendary champion of chaos. He has more than 12,000 barbarian predators and hundreds of chaos warriors. In addition, he corrupts There are countless mantras and many chaotic monsters.

So Raun knew very well in his heart that Obien could fight, but before that, he had to reorganize the army of the northern nobles.

In other words, in order to fight Orbion, Raun must give priority to solving the problem of army corruption. Unlike the knight nobles in the south, the knight nobles in the north have followed Ryan to complete the reorganization and intensive training of the army. The soldiers are semi-professional. It is equipped with a large number of firearms, and has established the Old Guards, one of the strongest forces in the old world.

What Raun now has in his hands is only the few hundred elites left after following Lion’s completion of the Great Eight Peaks Expedition. Raun organized it into an independent legion and named it the Connet King’s Highland Defense Group.

However, it costs money to form such an elite army that is completely out of production! Ryan is rich, he can afford the elite of the old guard, François is rich, he can form the Unicorn Guard, even Bohemond and Boderick have money, the Red Dragon Guard and Mannan The guard has also been formed.

However, the northern nobles headed by Raun and their army are still being reorganized and trained. They need to be collectively equipped with muskets and artillery, so they need a lot of financial support and food supplies.

This involves the third problem to be solved, money and grain taxation.

Then the problem comes again. Although Raun is the regent of the kingdom, it is impossible for him to command the court established by Ryan. After the former queen Sulia, who was in charge of property, went to Osuan with Ryan, the rest Responsible for managing finances are the two deputy finance ministers appointed by Ryan, Geffen from the Empire and Steve from Breton. These two are bureaucrats appointed by Ryan. They only listen to Ryan’s orders and approve funds. , They will only approve the items that Ryan had asked to allow before leaving and some of the established matters that Ryan had made before.

Is the expedition to Orbien an established matter? Obviously not, and it was a matter that the king clearly opposed. Raun didn't want to get a copper coin for military expenses from the treasury.

Therefore, it extends to the fourth question, which is the question of the political system of Bretania. As we all know, Bretania is a two-headed political system. They are the holy grail system represented by the lake **** witch Maugiana and In the secular feudal system represented by Ryan, the northern nobles headed by Ryan had to get at least one faction in order to get military expenses, or try to persuade Mogiana to carry out a chivalrous war, or find a way to get the bureaucratic system left behind by Ryan to assist. Expedition to Obian.

Who can Raun handle?

Therefore, during this period of time, the Kingdom Regency was tossing back and forth like being kicked. The frame left by Ryan made him feel uncomfortable. There are many things he can do within the frame, but once the frame is exceeded, all are rejected. This regency is indeed worthy. It's kind of boring.

However, there is a rare opportunity. Recently, Laun has keenly noticed that the looting of the old world by the northern Chaos Wasteland and Norsca's barbarians has been greatly reduced, and it seems to be shrinking forces. Obviously, the northern barbarians cannot suddenly become "good". Now, there is only one possibility, that is, the barbarians are preparing for a big move.

This was a good opportunity. Raun put the document aside. After thinking about it for a long time, he told the attendant: "Did she say that it was because of something?"

"Ms. Aurora said that she had recently obtained some information from Nord, Oster, and Kiesloff, and wanted to exchange with the Regent about the movement of the northern barbarians." The attendant said respectfully.

"Oh?!" Lawn suddenly became interested. Originally, the regent was still considering whether to meet this sacred witch who is known for her mature beauty. Hearing that Aurora had brought the news, he felt insightful. It's necessary.

Otherwise, the Kingdom Regent originally did not intend to see Aurora. As we all know, the MI7 established by Aurora is only responsible to Ryan. She is Ryan's personal adviser and courtier, and is not affected by the existing system of Bretania. Jurisdiction.

And there are faint rumors in the court of the kingdom that Aurora is actually the same as her daughter Teresa, who is the forbidden of Knight King Ryan. This status makes many people envy and jealous, but for some people try to verify, Ou Ruola tends to laugh without saying a word or refuse to talk about this topic, which makes many people feel the idea. Therefore, Aurora can often walk sideways in the kingdom. If it is not for the lake **** witch Mogiana, she will always monitor and Beat her, this sanctuary witch will definitely participate in various court social interactions for her own benefit.

Raun didn't want to see it to avoid suspicion, but now he has to meet: "Bring her in."

A minute later, Aurora appeared. The Sacred Witch was wearing a black silk and satin classic one-piece dress today, with a white fox fur coat outside, showing her own proud figure with a shiny black long jumpsuit. The skirt is distinct from the white fox fur coat, and a row of metallic buttons of different sizes is more fashionable. The slender legs wrapped in silk stockings lie quietly under the skirt, and a pair of black matte high heels are placed together. , Aurora bowed to Raun, her face was serious: "Hello, good noon, Your Regent, I'm sorry to disturb you, you must be busy?"

"Fortunately, I am surprised that you will find me." Lawn motioned to Aurora to sit down, and the Kingdom Regent was straightforward: "I heard that you have information to share with me?"

Aurora's mature and beautiful face showed a little helplessness.

The life of the Sanctuary Witch has not been very easy recently.

Since Ryan left, Aurora's life has become very sad.

In the Garland Council, she and Teresa were completely suppressed by Veronica. Obviously Veronica is the speaker appointed by Ryan. Her status is higher than that of Aurora, and both parties have never been the same. When Ryan was there, Veronica was still a little bit restrained. As soon as Ryan left, Veronica threw Aurora and Teresa aside and started to rebuild the Sorceress Hall. Obviously, the Sorceress Hall had important positions. Veronica arranged her own person, Teresa is okay, Aurora is very dissatisfied with the status quo but helpless, Veronica participated in the Great Eight Peaks Expedition, has a special status in the eyes of the knight nobles.

Recently, the intelligence network established by Aurora in the Empire and Kislev had reported something to the Sacred Witch, which attracted her attention.

It seems that there is a chaos power who is integrating all the forces of all the barbarian tribes and chaotic tribes in the entire Norsca and the Northern Wastes. The barbarians are shrinking their forces on a large scale and have completely stopped plundering south.

Aurora instinctively realized that things might be unusual. Once this happens to the northern barbarians, then there is only one possibility, that is, a certain chaos champion, chaos selection, or even chaos selection champion and more terrifying existence. After the evil god's oracle, he began to integrate his power.

However, after receiving this news, Aurora discovered a problem.

Ryan and Su Liya are not there, they are too far away to make up for it, who will they report to?

She found Veronica first, and Veronica said that this matter is not my responsibility. Did you find the wrong person?

Then Aurora went to the court housekeeper Katzenberg and the maid Sylvia appointed by Ryan, and the other party also said that this was not their scope of responsibility.

Neither did this, nor that, and in the end Aurora had to bite the bullet and go to Morjana.

Morjana was very prejudiced against Aurora, but she still listened to Aurora's description, and then asked three questions coldly.

First, you said that there may be a barbarian army that is capable of integrating the entire Norsca and the Northern Wastes, so who is this person?

Second, can you predict the approximate time when the barbarian will go south?

Finally, what is the specific force distribution of the barbarians along the Norsca coast and the Kislov border? Have you investigated it?

Aurora couldn't answer any of these three questions. Morjana laughed with anger directly after hearing them. The Lake God Witch said that this is the result you have spent a lot of money on for Ryan in a year? You have to apologize to the entire Knight Kingdom for this!

After finishing speaking, Mogiana said that I still have a lot of things to deal with, and I have no time to deal with you now, wait until Ryan comes back or you can get relatively accurate information.

But Aurora was also wronged, and the Sanctuary Witch could not tell. The intelligence network she originally designed and paved was almost completely destroyed in the destruction of Jialan. Now it is very difficult to get this information. Relying on the contacts she worked hard to manage with Kislov and Nord.

So after thinking about it, she simply came to Raun to see if he could exchange some valuable information from Raun.

Raun has detailed intelligence and intelligence on Orbion Island, and indeed pointed out that the northern barbarians have been shrinking and looting on a large scale recently, and Orbion Island's defense is empty.

Aurora clearly pointed out that according to the intelligence, there should be a chaos power who is integrating all the barbarian forces. According to the intelligence of Nord and Kislov, the barbarians are shrinking their forces and preparing to concentrate their forces, and may soon be going south.

"So, I understand what you mean, Ms. Aurora." Lawn's eyes lit up after listening to Aurora's information. The Kingdom Regent thought that I was thinking about how to find a suitable opportunity to attack Aurora. Well, in the end, Aurora sent a good reason to come. Now, does it happen to have an excuse to fight Obian?

The regent of the kingdom considered it and tried to express his gratitude in polite but distanced language: "Ms. Aurora, thank you very much for the information you bring. This will be beneficial to our next meeting and the direction of the kingdom. I Thank you on behalf of Your Majesty Ryan."

"Don't thank me." Aurora heard the implied meaning in Raun's words, and the Sanctuary Witch sighed lightly, and smiled reluctantly: "We are here to get what we need, exchange valuable information, and strengthen It's just communication."

"Yeah." Lawn also nodded politely, and the Kingdom Regent said very cautiously: "Special times, special treatment, special treatment, but Ms. Aurora, don't you have a way to contact your Majesty Ryan?"

"Originally there was, but my contact method would be invalid if it is too far away." Aurora said helplessly: "Now I can contact Ryan... Only Majesty Majesty, but she is unwilling to help."

"That's it, okay, I'll explain this to His Royal Highness Morgiana." After thinking for a while, Lawn added: "Also, we still need to collect as much information as possible about the northern barbarians, and wait until Her Majesty Ryan You can directly report to him when you come back."

"I will." Aurora became even more helpless. The Sanctuary Witch knew that she had become Ryan's private property now. Everyone was eager to draw a distance from herself, but she was already with Ostermark. After bumping into a wall, it is not difficult to accept it now, but I am a little unwilling: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first, Your Regent."

"Please, I am also going to participate in the Duke Conference." Lawn did not say anything to stay, and the regent has his own business to do.

After Aurora went down, Laun tidied up his dress, got up, and walked towards the conference hall of the palace.

Five minutes later, the attendant pushed open the domed door more than ten meters high in the conference hall.

At this time, all the dukes of Brittany and the lake **** and witch Maugiana were present. Every duke was accompanied by an attendant, and most of them were their juniors, such as François. Take Sir Gerrold, for example, Boderick takes his son Federmond.

As always, Hubald, Duke of Carcassonne, did not come. He was the only Duke who was absent.

"You're late, Raun." The lake **** witch Mogiana said coldly. She sat on the bench next to the throne, her tone sounding unpleasant: "Start as soon as possible."

Lawn first said "yes" to Mogiana, and then sat down in front of his position. The position of the Kingdom Regent is not far from the front of the throne and to the left. It has a faint opposite meaning to the Lake God Witch: "Your Majesty Ryan goes to Osuan had left several orders before. Today, we are summoning everyone to discuss how to continue the execution of the king's orders, what problems have been discovered, how to solve them, and how to report to him when His Majesty Ryan returns."

The dukes had different expressions, but they all nodded seriously.

"There are a few things like this in general." Lawn stood up, took out a thick stack of parchment, and motioned to the courtier to send it to the hands of every duke.

Adehad, Duke of Lyonasse frowned. He just took the parchment from his courtier. The first sentence on it made the duke's head as big as a fight and sweated. The situation in Lyonasse has always been complicated. Where there are many hills, Ryan can be able to suppress it, because he has prestige and strength, but he can come for me... Your Majesty, you want me to die!

The parchment read: "Further reduction, change, and elimination of incompetent knight nobles."

The Duke of Bastogne, Berchmond, also took the scroll. He frowned and looked at the first one, nodding in his heart, thinking that the incompetent trash knight nobles really needed to be rectified, as Arthur’s direct line. He couldn't stand it for future generations, but when he saw the second one, Berhemond also showed an embarrassed expression.

"Further abolish excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, reduce tariffs uniformly, and encourage trade and population circulation."

François, Duke of Winford, has a deep cultivation of qi. He kept seeing the third one and couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. His son-in-law really had a lot of ideas.

"Establish a permanent warehouse and strategic reserve of grain, and appropriately subsidize grain prices."

This is what François wants to do, he hasn't raised it yet, he originally wanted to wait for Ryan to come back to discuss it.

Looking at the next one, all the dukes frowned.

"Each principality must build no less than five permanent military fortresses along the borders of its own kingdom, at its own expense."

"Everyone, if you have any comments or suggestions on the national policy left by your Majesty, you can put them forward directly at the meeting." Seeing that Mogiana was silent and the Lake God Witch looked like a wandering sky, he had to say to himself: "Your Majesty. Having said that, you can raise any questions as much as you want, and you can discuss them, but if you don’t talk in person and talk nonsense behind the scenes, then you’re arguing about national policies.”

After speaking, Raun gave the dukes some time to digest, and the dukes immediately discussed with their relatives or courtiers.

Five minutes later.

"objection!"
