Warhammer Wizard

Chapter 1010: Military expansion and power acquisition

One million troops! Thirty star destroyers!

The Holy Soul Wizard and the imperial councillors looked at each other, both frightened by the emperor's military expansion plan, and some even thought it was too crazy.

Even more than a thousand years ago, when the emperor was in power, the empire's army at its peak was only over 300,000 people. After the merger of the Seven Legions and the Duke's Guard, the 350,000 people have broken through the historical record of the Empire and reached the highest peak.

However, the emperor has to expand three times!

A true army of millions!

This is not an ordinary soldier, everyone is an extraordinary person. The status of extraordinary people far exceeds that of ordinary people. It takes a lot of money to let them enter the army and obey orders. Their salary alone is a huge number.

In addition, there are various treatments, such as potions, auxiliary training facilities, magic souls, training, as well as weapons and equipment, magic items, etc., all of which are not cheap.

A standing army composed of millions of extraordinary people, the annual military expenditure is terribly high.

You don't need such a huge army to rule an empire!

What does the emperor want to do?

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one said anything for a while.

Anse Waldos was about to speak, but was snatched up by Oroin, the founder of the battle wizard has always been outspoken and asked directly: "Ren, I want to know what your purpose is to build this army of millions. What? You don't need so many people at all, no one can shake your position in the empire."

"Master, the swords of the Imperial Defence Force point outside the empire, not within the empire." Ren explained, "That's why it is called the Imperial Defence Force."

He raised his voice a little higher and said loudly:

"The responsibility of this army is to protect the lives and property of the people of the empire, and to protect the empire from the invasion of the empire by foreign enemies."

Oroyin was a little puzzled: "Enemies from abroad?"

"Evil god, abyss, demon."

Ren replied solemnly: "All along, the civilization of Ellenus has always been threatened by the abyss. The demon army has destroyed this world three times, and its brilliant achievements have been destroyed in one fell swoop. We cannot follow in the footsteps and must be prepared! "

There was an uproar from below.

Many people have changed their faces. The abyss invasion is like a sharp sword hanging over the heads of civilized races. When they think about it, they will have nightmares, but they feel very far away.

The fourth abyss invasion is inevitable.

However, according to the laws of history, the next massive invasion of the abyss demons is still far away, at least 2,000 years before the development of civilization reaches a new peak, and the abyss evil **** will harvest again.

Oroin was also very solemn, "Your Majesty, did you foresee something?"

"No." Ren replied.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ren added: "Maybe the abyss invasion is still far away, but who can guarantee that it will not be ahead of time? We must be prepared for everything, and when the disaster really comes, we will not be in a hurry. Besides..." He paused, " Why do we have to wait until the abyss invades, instead of taking the initiative and counterattacking into the abyss?"

hiss...

Many imperial parliamentarians took a deep breath and were stunned.

Counterattack the abyss?

Even in the most absurd dream, they didn't think of this. It was a bottomless abyss with countless demons, terrifying abyss lords and evil gods, and the most terrifying four abyss gods!

Even if the gods of the heavens are united, they are only barely able to resist the abyss.

How dare a mortal empire think of counterattacking the abyss?

This is ridiculous!

The Holy Soul wizards were also frightened by Ren's bold idea. They looked at the emperor one by one, their expressions on their faces were like ghosts, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.

Anse Verdas stood up and persuaded seriously: "Ren, it's too dangerous for a mortal army to attack the abyss. You can't take the empire down this road of no return and ruin the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the empire. Even the entire main material world. All may be implicated, triggering an abyss invasion in advance."

"I understand, teacher." Ren nodded slightly.

His eyes swept across the stunned crowd, "This is just an idea of ​​mine, not really to be implemented, but it does not hinder the military expansion plan."

"The Imperial Guard is a defensive army, not an offensive."

"I don't dare to expect to attack the abyss with a mortal army, and let my people die in vain, please rest assured."

Anseldorf's expression softened, "That's good."

The hearts of the others all fell to the ground.

If Ren's really thinks this way and does the same, then he is more crazy than all the emperors in history, including the emperors of every human kingdom, the elves, dwarves, and giant rulers of the previous era combined. The Reensee Empire and all mankind are heading towards their own end.

This is more terrifying than the damage caused by a hundred tyrants!

Although they were in awe of Ren's strength and legion, and crowned Ren as emperor, the emperor did such a crazy act as soon as he took the throne.

Then, they have to stop the emperor and pull Ren from the horse.

As long as the emperor doesn't mess around, it's fine.

Thinking about it this way, the expansion plan of one million people does not seem to be so exaggerated. The population of the empire exceeds one billion, and it is growing rapidly every year. Because of the large number of sales of black soul medicine, the number and strength of extraordinary people are increasing year after year. .

An army of one million seems to be acceptable.

You must know that every abyss demon is equivalent to an extraordinary person. At any level of the larger abyss, there are tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of demons.

Just a million people...

The Holy Soul Wizard and the Imperial Councillors are all thinking, and the changes in everyone's mind are clearly visible in the eyes of the soul.

Ren smiled to himself.

Sure enough, no matter which world people like to compromise, if they only say that they want to expand the army by one million, everyone will think it is too much, and they will try their best to stop it.

Of course he wouldn't let the Imperial Guard attack the abyss, an army prepared for mortal enemies outside the Empire.

Counter-attacking the abyss is not all a pretense, if there is a chance in the future, I will try it myself!

But it should be a plan many years from now.

Seeing that everyone was thinking about it, Ren continued: "The Star Destroyer is the most important combat platform of the Imperial Defence Force. It is responsible for the training, transportation and delivery of the army, ensuring safety and mobility, and it is a powerful backing on the battlefield. "

"An Empire-class Star Destroyer will always have one division, that is, over 10,000 people, and it can reach about two divisions when fully loaded."

"The Victory-class Star Destroyer can carry an entire army, about 100,000 people."

"Therefore, 30 Empire-class Star Destroyers is a more appropriate number." Ren looked at the crowd and said slowly: "I also plan to build another five Victory-class ships, one Victory-class with five Empire-class ships, Form six Star Destroyer fleets."

Needles falling in the palace can be heard.

Everyone was shocked by the emperor's big plan. If it can be realized, then the empire will have thirty-six star destroyers!

The power of the Empire will reach an unprecedented and terrifying height!

Even in the most brilliant third era of intelligent civilization, the heyday of the three tribes of elves, dwarves and orcs was far less than the empire. This army can easily swept across the main material world, the three major human empires, the Oroan, the New World, and the Dark Continent will all be conquered by the empire.

Suddenly, everyone guessed the emperor's ambition.

Although I'm not sure, I'm 70% to 80% sure.

The emperor wants to lead the empire to conquer the main material world, which is good for everyone present and every citizen of the empire!

The Great Sage Congerard thought deeply and asked, "Your Majesty, how much does an Empire-class Star Destroyer cost? What about the Victory-class?"

This is the most crucial question.

Only Ren himself knew the construction method and cost of the Star Destroyer, and everyone was curious. He didn't hide it, and replied calmly: "The Empire-class is 170 million gold shields, and the Victory-class costs 500 million. Golden Shield."

Everyone's eyes were straight.

From the appearance of the Star Destroyer, it can be seen that the cost is definitely not cheap, but I didn't expect that an Empire-class would cost 170 million gold shields.

The Duke of Silver Star was stunned. Because of her small size, her Floating City of Erath Zhuo was the lowest cost, only a little over 80 million gold shields.

A single Star Destroyer can be worth two floating cities!

And Ren has eight Imperial-class and one Victory-class, and the combined cost of these Star Destroyers is close to 2 billion gold shields!

Everyone knows that the emperor is very rich, but they don't know that he is so rich...

The Great Sage Congerard took a deep breath and said, "According to His Majesty's plan, the construction of twenty-two Imperial-class and five Victory-class ships will cost a total of 6.2 billion gold shields. With such a high budget, the empire's financial Can you stand it?"

"So I spread it evenly for the next 20 years." Ren replied: "Batch construction, unified procurement of materials, and optimization of the process can reduce the cost by about 20%, and only need five billion gold shields. I personally produce more every year. 100 million gold shields, so the Ministry of Finance only needs to allocate 150 million gold shields every year, which is relatively easy.”

He said it very easily, but everyone felt their scalps go numb and their minds went blank.

100 million a year, 2 billion gold shields in 20 years, the emperor took it out at will, as if he just took out 20 copper risos from his pocket!

But on second thought, the entire empire belongs to the emperor.

Money is just a number to him.

Five billion gold shields to build six Star Destroyer fleets is definitely a good deal. This huge investment will bring back ten times the profits of the empire!

Millions of people have agreed to expand the army, and it is not a big deal to build a few more fleets.

In fact, no one can stop the emperor.

Even if the empire's finances do not support it, the emperor can build a larger fleet at his own expense, but the speed is slower and the cost is higher.

The same is true for the expansion of the army by one million.

The emperor holds great power and can make decisions without anyone's consent. He is willing to seek opinions here, he has already expressed his respect for everyone, and he is also telling everyone that he is not the kind of ruler who will go his own way and be completely dictatorial.

"I have no opinion." After speaking, the great sage Congerard sat down.

All the holy soul wizards also nodded slightly.

With a smile on Ren's face, he announced: "Batura, you and the Ministry of Military Affairs will take the lead in the adaptation and expansion of the Imperial Defence Force, and hand over the plan and budget to me within a month. Oh, by the way, the Ministry of Military Affairs will comply with the reforms, and in the future Change your name to 'Ministry of Defense' and your title to 'Secretary of Defense'."

"As per your order, Your Majesty." Batura got up and took the order.

"Fasting." Ren called his name again.

"Your Majesty."

A middle-aged man with an unsmiling face and an ordinary face stood up to respond. He was Minister of Industry Fasting and one of the vice-chairmen of the Mechanical Union.

Ren said: "I will give you a list later. You and the Ministry of Industry are responsible for the procurement of materials for the Star Destroyer, choose a few suitable locations in the empire, expand a few shipbuilding factories, draw up a construction plan, and hand it over to I have a look."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Fasding's eyes flashed with excitement.

Ren's eyes swept across a group of holy soul wizards and nobles, and suddenly said: "In the empire, all armies are under the leadership of the Ministry of Defense, and the emperor is the supreme commander of the army."

Hearing this, many people jumped in their hearts and realized what the emperor was going to say.

Sure enough, Ren said solemnly: "In the current situation of the empire and the future military expansion plan, it is not appropriate to have private armed forces in the territory. Considering the problems left over by history, I allow you to keep a part of the extraordinary legion, but there must be restrictions."

Both the Duke of Silver Star and the Queen of Storms changed their expressions.

Ren glanced at them lightly and said, "The duke can have a private army of no more than 3,000 people, a marquis of 1,000, an earl of 500, and a viscount and a baron each of no more than 100. The provincial governors appointed by the empire and Mayors and chief executives at all levels are not allowed to support private armies, and the existing extraordinary armies are limited to you to disband within one month.”

"Your Majesty..."

Immediately someone exclaimed in shock, "Then who will protect us?"

Ren looked at the governor who was questioning, and slowly replied: "Your safety is the responsibility of the local public security bureau. Don't be afraid of insufficient manpower. I am going to separate the public security bureau from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and set up a public security department to recruit more staff."

The Queen of Storms shook her head and said, "The Principality of Hohaven cannot be without an army."

"The vassal state is not restricted," Ren said.

Hearing these words, the Storm Queen and Emily both breathed a sigh of relief, and the Hastaff City Lord and his wife also felt relieved.

The faces of the Great Sage Congerald and the Duke of Silver Star were not good-looking.

Both the Golem Legion and the Silver Knights have more than 3,000 members.

Some imperial parliamentarians from nobles also exceeded the quota. They opened their mouths. UUkanshu.com wanted to raise objections, but they immediately persuaded the emperor's gaze.

Here, Batura stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will dismiss most of the Iron Knights within three days, leaving only a thousand people to guard the family territory."

"Very well, the Marquis has a heart." Ren appreciated it very much.

With Batura taking the lead, other nobles and governors did not dare to disobey, and stood up one after another to express their willingness to disperse the excess private army.

"Okay." The Duke of Silver Star was under pressure, "3,000 people are only 3,000 people. Since it's your request, Ren, then I accept it."

The great sage also responded: "I will abolish half of the golem army."

Seeing that the two Holy Soul Wizards were very interesting, Ren had a satisfied smile on his face, then stretched out his third finger and said, "Now let's talk about the third thing."

"The empire will set up three agencies, one is the Ministry of Public Security I just mentioned, which is responsible for maintaining public order in cities, towns, villages and all administrative areas within the empire, combating crime, eliminating demons, and managing traffic and border access. "

"The second is the Imperial Intelligence Bureau. This department is responsible for investigating the intelligence of all enemies inside and outside the Empire, providing assistance to the Ministry of Public Security, and has a certain degree of law enforcement power, under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor himself, that is, I."

"The third and most important institution."

"It is above the imperial parliament and has huge power-" Ren's eyes swept across the faces with different expressions, and said slowly: "The Imperial Senate!"
