Warhammer Throne

Chapter 980: , Master Hawker

Emilia actually had no reason to come to the front from beginning to end.

In terms of the military, Emilia is not a warlord-type lord. The empire seems to have a high authority, but even in her most powerful Nur, Emilia is more of a Nur. The host and mediator of the city council, the Queen of the Empire is considered to have excellent talents in internal affairs and diplomacy, but is lacking in military affairs.

Defeating Tamu Khan brought great prestige to Emilia, but everyone, even the dwarves, knew that the army was the Nur army and the black lady of Nur, Elspes-Von-Dela Commanded by Ken, the core combat power was provided by the Knight King Ryan. All she did was hold her son Frederick and stand on the wall to inspire the morale of the army.

Therefore, the dwarf’s evaluation of her military ability 2 is normal. Emilia’s military ability is limited to some basic common sense learned by Sulia for a few years.

So when Emilia received Ryan's love letter in Noor, the Queen of the Empire was very surprised. Ryan would actually write a love letter to herself at this time?

This is not like Ryan's style at all!

Don’t talk about love letters. I’ve been following Ryan for many years. From his teens to his twenties, Ryan didn’t fight outside all day, or came back to deal with internal affairs and find the two witches and his maid. Or with Sister Su Liya, if it hadn't been determined to pierce that layer of window paper before leaving, Ryan might not touch him from start to finish.

Emilia opened the love letter happily, and after reading a few sentences, she pressed her mouth in dissatisfaction.

Tasteless.

What is tasteless?

To put it simply, not passionate enough, not emotional enough, Ryan's love is a bit too shallow, and Emilia wants to be more intense and bolder.

After reading it again, Emilia understood.

Where is this love letter!

This is clearly an official letter! Her man, Knight King Ryan, this is a love letter, but it actually blames the army in the south of the empire for too slow progress! We've all arrived at Herzig, but we didn't dare to advance because of insufficient troops. We have bought so much time for you, so why are we still sluggish?

The Queen of the Empire put down Ryan's love letter, thought and made a decision again and again that she would come to the front in person.

The formation and mobilization of reinforcements in the southern part of the empire did not take much effort. The real problem lies in two places. The first is who is in charge of the army? Is it Marshal Heilberger Rick or Marshal Noor Erstein?

At this point, Brunswick and Nuer have not been able to reach an agreement, so naturally the pace of advancement is slow.

The second problem is logistics. The logistics in the southern part of the empire has been used to fully support the war in the northern part of the empire. Then the army that will supply the south will be the major palaces of the empire, especially several important financial and taxation areas. Very large cities have to spend real money, so who will pay, how much, and how to allocate it is also a very complicated political issue. This issue involves the political situation of the entire empire and the struggles within countless court factions. There is a game between several major chambers of commerce and trade unions to purchase military supplies for the army. That is an amazing piece of fat!

I hate it, right? Very cumbersome, right? Very boring, right?

But this is politics.

All the problems were solved after Emilia came to the front line personally. The Queen of the Empire announced that she would be the nominal commander, and then appointed Rick Marshal Kurt Heilberg as the actual head coach.

Regarding this arrangement, the Rick leader has no objection, and the Nuer have no objection.

Subsequently, Emilia used personal prestige and influence guarantees to directly borrow a large amount of supplies from the major chambers of commerce and noble families in Tarabeheim to give priority to military supplies. The logistics problems that had not been settled for a long time in the past were solved instantly.

Everyone admired the countess's wrists, and the army moved smoothly.

Looking at the imperial prince who wandered out of the cabin, with a compelling grace and a smile, Veronica suddenly felt a great pressure. The Garland Witch looked at the scene in front of her. More than two hundred nours. The Iron Armored Army is all equipped with the most sophisticated equipment and weapons produced in the Nuer Armory and the Dwarf Manpower. Their glorious history, achievements and combat effectiveness need not be said any more.

In addition, there is also a Blackstone Guard Corps with more than 500 people. This guard is the private guard of the Queen of the Empire. It enjoys a high salary and also has extremely high requirements. In general, eight of the ten great swordsmen will be eliminated in various assessments, and the rest will be able to join the Blackstone Guard.

With an army of more than 800 people alone, Veronica knew how strong Emilia was. She was now the most powerful woman in the empire.

The female speaker opened her mouth. She thought for a long time and didn't even know whether she should call her the familiar name Emilia or her real name Emmanuel.

"Call me Emilia, Ms. Veronica." The imperial lady looked at Veronica with a bit of entanglement. She was proud of her, and Emilia lifted her chin: "The same goes for Ryan. Call me."

"Huan... welcome, Your Excellency Emilia." Veronica forced a smile.

Emilia didn't move forward, she just stood there, and stood still on the dock, and the female Speaker of the Garland gradually became embarrassed.

The new **** has appeared!

How can it stand still!

As Ryan’s representative, Veronica could only go up and salute Emilia: "Welcome very much, Her Excellency the Queen of the Empire, your support is very important to us."

"No thanks, Ms. Veronica, this is what we should do." Emilia smiled calmly and accepted Veronica's courtesy, and then took Veronica's hand and motioned for them to be together.

Veronica was full of sullen expression, knowing that she couldn't compete with Emilia, so she could only be subdued.

Damn it!

"It seems that Herzig is safe at least for now." Marshal Rick Heilberg looked at the whole city, and the old man nodded: "It's getting late, move faster!"

"Better hands and feet." Noor General Marshal Erstein also gave the order.

"Yes!"

Out of trust in Emilia, Veronica and the old guards checked the supplies and military expenses, and after confirming that there was no problem, they accepted them all.

At this time, the human coalition all rushed to the door of Herzig, the Knight King Lane, Elector Boris and Elder Elderbrand, plus Mogiana and Regent Raun all arrived.

"Welcome, very welcome, Emilia." Ryan stretched out his arms and gave the Imperial Lady a big hug: "Are you here in person?"

"Would you not welcome?" Emilia smiled at Ryan: "Who can't wait to write a love letter to me, hoping I can come to reunite with you?"

The crowd onlookers laughed, and Elector Boris even ridiculed: "Brother, you have two kids, and you still have this one. It's not ashamed, it's not ashamed."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha~" Everyone was laughing, only Mogiana's face was very ugly.

And Veronica's face was full of smirks of upset and jealousy.

She paid for Emilia in Marienburg back then!

"Um... yes, I took the initiative to invite you." Ryan lost a smile, and the Knight Dynasty nodded towards Heilberg and the others behind Emilia, and asked softly: "How many troops have you come?"

"Not many, only three or four thousand people." Emilia shook her head: "We are the first to come, all of them are the most elite troops, Rick Guard, Kronborg Great Sword Regiment, Brunei The Glory Guard, the Nur Iron Armor, the Blackrock Guard and the other two elite regiments are all here, and the remaining troops will arrive one after another within two days."

"Hate less." Ryan sighed: "We don't know how the Oster collar is at all now. It's a little bit more military."

"The arrival of the army takes time, dear." Emilia motioned to an old gentleman standing behind her to step forward: "This is old Mr. Krupp. You and him must know him. At the time of the invasion, it was his Krupp Chamber of Commerce who donated money and materials that helped us through the difficulties."

"It's a great honor to see you again, Honorable Majesty the Knight King." The old gentleman was wearing a bowler hat on his head and an elegant black and gold dress. He bowed and saluted: "I will do it for you and you all. Bringing aid from the South, in order to fight chaos, we must work together."

Ryan nodded slightly. The old guy in front of him was the president of the famous Nuer Krupp Chamber of Commerce and is now the richest man in Nuer. According to estimates, his fortune is estimated to be hundreds of thousands of gold marks, comparable to Schultz.

And the opportunity for this guy to make a fortune was the invasion of the Tamu Khan eight years ago. Under the crisis of Noor at that time, despite the sense of being forced, the old Krupp paid the most money and donated and was also the most determined anti-hybridization. The president of the Chamber of Commerce, in order to preserve his property, he almost took out the entire family of the Krupp Chamber of Commerce.

If this battle is won, the Krupp Chamber of Commerce will naturally become the biggest winner. Noor’s nobles support him, and Countess Emmanuel also appreciates him. Coupled with multiple contacts with Ryan, the knight nobles want The first reaction to ordering artillery was to find the Krupp Chamber of Commerce in Noor to order the famous "Krupp Cannon". According to Suria's statistics, the Knight Kingdom has ordered 648 artillery pieces from the Krupp Chamber of Commerce in these years.

Ryan suddenly felt very interesting. The old Mr. Krupp in front of him finally became the richest man in Nur and the largest arms dealer in the old world by relying on political speculation and desperate money at the time.

Even to this day, he has become the general supplies agent for the logistics of this war.

As mentioned earlier, this profession is a super fat, so Ryan can say that all the great trench merchants of the empire, including Marienburg, Brittany, Tyrell, and even the high elves in the old world large chamber of commerce, All want to fight for this position.

This is not to say that corruption is deducted from it, shoddy, and "transportation loss" is collected. In this situation, no one dares to do too much. Once it is found that the crime of "litong chaos" is deducted, it is the whole family torture, No one would be that stupid in the end of all property confiscated.

What everyone is focusing on is the huge profit of purchasing guns, food, medicine, bedding and clothing for the army. The Mottkin invasion is so big, the military logistics is naturally huge, and the profits are all tens of thousands. The unit gold coins are counted upwards. This has to make the big business people excited, buying low and selling high, hoarding oddly, and moving around, gold and silver are rolling in.

However, although these proxy munitions are first-class and one-of-a-kind, they also have a necessary condition, that is, the chamber of commerce must have a very strong financial strength and be trusted by the government, because in the process of purchasing military supplies, the empire’s official government The preparation of funds and the payment for goods to be delivered are often prone to "disconnect". The military agent must often advance the official funds, and then wait for the official follow-up settlement of the materials and the balance. If there is a problem of a break in the capital chain in this process, the United States The difference may turn into a nightmare at any time.

Looking at the polite old Krupp, Ryan couldn’t help but think that he really wanted to earn money honestly, and it would never be possible to do things down to become a top-notch merchant. No matter where he was, he wanted to be the richest man. It will definitely have something to do with politics.

Just like the three three major chambers of commerce in Brittany, behind the Oliver Chamber of Commerce and Hadrian Chamber of Commerce is himself, and behind the other famous Chamber of Commerce, the Anug family are Raun, François, and Baudry. The three dukes of Ke are fully supporting them, and the three parties have both competition and cooperation. They are in a dynamic balance and work together to serve the knights and nobles.

This is the highest level of business. The two ends of the trading scale, one end is gold, and the other end is the ring. Only this kind of transaction can really give birth to top-notch merchants.

However, if it has something to do with politics, it is destined to be difficult to retreat and get a good death.

To be fair, the quality of the Krupp cannon is really top-notch, and Ryan wondered if he could pull it back if something went wrong.

Everyone walked towards the city of Herzig. Although the White Wolf Knight, the Holy Grail Knight and the Old Guards were all ordered to ban and disperse the crowd in advance, Emilia still saw Herzig’s current chaos. And weak, the empire said softly: "Why are there so many refugees? You don't care?"

"How to manage? This is Hawke’s internal affairs." Ryan shook his head: "You know, Emilia, when it comes to logistics and material distribution, bureaucrats, churches, courts, military, and chambers of commerce will all rush in. It’s not uncommon to constrain each other and fight for profit. With multiple management and multiple management, everyone feels that they have the right to cut a piece of this big cake. In the end, the elector himself often has to come out and solve it."

"Isn't it always like this?" Emilia couldn't help but smile. "I didn't ask this, Ryan."

"It's the same with the relief of the victims." Ryan also smiled: "The relief of the victims is typically not profitable and it is easy to get rid of it, so everyone avoids it. The bureaucrats talk about relief. The church should be approached. The church said that it must wait for the court to allocate funds. The electoral court said that the most important thing now is to ensure the supply of the army. Therefore, merchants should be asked to borrow money. The endorsement made the merchants go to the church..."

"Documents implement documents, meetings implement meetings?" Emilia covered her mouth and smiled and her eyes narrowed.

"Hmm~"

The vanguard army from the southern part of the empire entered the city. Although Herzig was already a bit crowded, there were still many places in the suburbs of the city that had been vacated for them to live in.

In the evening, Hawke led the electorate Edbrand to prepare another grand venison banquet.

However, on the second day after Emilia arrived in Herzig, while most of the troops in the southern part of the empire were slowly arriving at the front line in batches, Herzig greeted an unexpected guest.

He named him to look for Knight King Ryan-Macado!

After the two met and said a few words, the army stationed in Herzig immediately received a joint order from Ryan and Emilia.

The whole army is ready to set off immediately, and will start at full speed after a limit of one hour!
