Chapter 29 Complete the Arrangement
No major changes occurred. Vika's second wave of support troops directly fought with Mia's advance team halfway. Both sides angrily accused the other side of being unethical and started to shoot passionately.
In response to the friendly army's request for help, Ji Lin used "Our troops have just experienced a large-scale battle and are still in training." "We have exhausted our efforts to manage the city. There are still rebels in the city and we are working hard to suppress the rebellion and eliminate the bandits."
Friendly troops are in trouble, but they are as still as a mountain.
The Seta Plain is very large, with a land area of 100,000 square kilometers, which is the size of two Tongliao.
The Seta Plain is very small and cannot accommodate the desires of the two kingdoms.
The war between Vika and Mia has begun.
They ignored the surging public opinion in the country. The two kingdoms raised their swords against their neighbors, believing that destroying each other would change everything, and the country that gnawed the other's corpse would survive to the next era.
In a blink of an eye, his copy had crossed the 45-day mark, which meant that Ji Lin's mission had been completed for the most part.
After going through the initial difficult period, the next difficulties were concentrated on urban construction and the integration of urban resources. Ji Lin used swift means to unite the entire Seta, the group of people who controlled production, and tied them to the same boat with himself in a threatening way.
They all participated in the attack on the advance team.
As for whether these people would hate themselves for listening to the city lord's encouragement to support equipment to attack the advance team that day, and hated the city lord who wanted to keep his position.
That had nothing to do with him.
For those who were unwilling to obey, he directly relied on Vika's authority, and did not even need to fabricate charges. Any random example of what these companies did in this era was a crime, and he used thundering means to eradicate them.
In addition to factory owners, another major force in Seta was the mines. These talents were the main source of income for the city lord. The factories only paid him trade taxes, but the mines could really bring him great benefits. Ji Lin had never taken action against these mines, even though there were a large number of black miners without identities in them, which was actually the place where the entire Seta was oppressed the most.
He did not think clearly about how to deal with these miners.
He had not planned to tear his face off directly. The liberation of the miners was not something he could do as Vika's commander.
How long could he delay?
He had already tried every means to buy time for himself, but time was passing, and time never gave anyone any hesitation.
During these 65 days, he taught Jeanne everything he knew, and taught her all the combat knowledge he could, and Senota often came to listen. Ji Lin did not refuse, after all, one more person meant one more combat power.
Changheng and Chongshan, who had become tools in the background, were both promoted to level three, which was really a cause for celebration. At the same time, they raised their knowledge level from the classical era to the steam era. Don't underestimate this era bonus. Officials in the high era will have a 10% efficiency bonus when managing the low era.
With the assistance of Senota and the threat of Ji Lin, the factory owners finally admitted their mistakes and were willing to cooperate in the production of steam mechanized soldiers, which changed the actual production efficiency of steam mechanized soldiers from two in thirty days to twelve in thirty days for four factories combined, which was equivalent to one unit every 2.5 days.
Two months of training was not enough to cleanse the ideological imprints on the Vika musketeers, but the city guards after the reorganization of Seta were still one step away from becoming a combat-ready army, tempered in bloody battles.
Get up at 7 o'clock in the morning for training, take a two-hour break at noon, train until 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and study until 10 o'clock in the evening.
Seta, which Ji Lin had managed for two months, was already an extremely valuable asset. He burned one-third of the city lord's treasury in two months. In order to improve his knowledge level, he built a special adult school in Seta for the soldiers of the city guard to learn knowledge. Education is really a long-term investment. Fortunately, this investment in education is a drop in the bucket compared to the investment in production and training. The venue is ready, and you only need to find teachers...
Teachers, he pulled the mechanics in the original team to teach the big-headed soldiers.
Still too few.
He wrote a lot of things he wanted to leave for Jeanne, and then tore them up and threw them into the fire.
He chose to believe Jeanne, and his instructions would not necessarily be more powerful than her on-the-spot performance.
Ji Lin looked out the window. The white smoke column rose into the clouds and mixed with the clouds, making it difficult to distinguish. The heavy haze blocked the sunlight and cast a shadow.
He didn't believe that he couldn't get a good reward for his current completion. He would be satisfied if he could bring back this enhanced version of the musketeer, and preferably the 120mm mortar. While he still had control, he burned the remaining two-thirds of the funds in the treasury of the City Lord's Mansion to Senota.
After he arranged his own affairs, he would leave the dungeon and continue to manage his territory.
Jiutian's territory was idle and did not expand.
His progress was much slower than others. This method of collecting internal ores first without developing external resources would lead to a very fast depletion of resources. His way of exploring dungeons was equivalent to exchanging economy for technology.
Ji Lin lay on the chair and looked into the distance, and also looked at the countdown that suddenly jumped out beside him. It was an upcoming.
He was still worried about Jeanna, but he was not worried about Senota, because Senota's blood was cold, and he would live well wherever he went.
"Commander?"
"Jeana, it's you."
"Commander, you didn't sleep well last night."
Jeanna looked at Ji Lin.
"Well, I'm going to a far place soon"
"Then, sir, when will you come back."
"Probably won't come back."
Ji Lin touched his nose.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you."
Jeanne replied and Ji Lin laughed.
"If you can't defend this city, don't give it up. If you live, you will have everything."
If you save the land and lose the people, everyone and the land will be lost. If you save the people and lose the land, both the people and the land will survive. He said over and over again that Jeanna's ears almost became calluses.
"I heard news over there that Vika is going to conquer Mia. As long as Vika conquers Mia and rebuilds a new empire, everyone can live a good life without having to fight."
Jeanne turned her head and suddenly said softly.
"Jeanna, as long as the Governor is here, everything will not get better. They are above everyone, monopolizing resources and technology, making everyone unable to learn knowledge, and ordinary workers and farmers don't even have their own schools. In There are even large numbers of people in Wika who are starving."
"First came the mages and rune craftsmen, and then the mechanics. The special class they formed ensured the absolute violence of the upper class against the lower class."
"A long time ago, both Vika and Mia were part of the Iris Empire. Civil war broke out after the governors overthrew the rule of the feudal emperor. The fertile land of the Seta Plain divided the governors into the east and west sides, and then the The war lasted for a hundred years."
He spoke softly and gently about the stories that had happened in this land, which he knew from reading the books in the city lord's mansion in his spare time.
"Everyone is tortured by this war that has lasted for hundreds of years, and the peace talks are just a truce."
He wants to make up a dream for this world.
A big dream called unity and a new world.
Many people in this world will die for this dream.
"After this war that has lasted for hundreds of years is over, and the rule of the governors is over, there will be good days, where everyone can live a full life."
Jeanne nodded, as if she had known it for a long time, and her bright eyes were still shining with light.
"I will protect them."
Ji Lin was stunned. This was the first time in this world that he was surprised by a person.
"That's it..."
He still seems to despise these replica characters too much.
then,
That's another story.
