At the port of the United Kingdom, Yang Hao concluded that the God of Light must be anxious. If the God of Light was still calm, he probably would not let a group of farmers go to Skool Territory to cause trouble.
Moreover, if the God of Light really had the energy to personally deal with the escaped "Light", he would have done so long ago.
After all, it's just like playing competitive games. Why would someone who can really pin you to the ground and beat you up say so much? Isn't it better to just pin you to the ground than to just talk without any evidence
Therefore, the God of Light became anxious, and Yang Hao and others also became anxious.
Because this means that if nothing unexpected happens, the United Nations may be able to tear off the head of that God of Light this year or next year.
But before that... The reason why Yang Hao and others were anxious was that they also had to advance their plans and rescue "Light" from that place in advance.
(After all, the revelation of the God of Light almost confirmed that the "light" was there... But there were tens of thousands of people. Even if they were tens of thousands of pigs, it would be very troublesome to fight them, not to mention a group of fanatics?)
(Not to mention that the God of Light might take the opportunity to do something to those believers... Considering our geographical location... um... we must enter Roman territory in advance - damn it.)
We had just made preparations for stable development in the next few months, but now we have to resort to war again.
I hope this is really the last emergency this year.
Thinking of this, Yang Hao sighed: "I understand. Let's go and inform Basilisa in Constantinople first - we will discuss it immediately after we return. Thank you..."
"yes!"
The Elf Ranger left. And at this moment, Yang Hao sighed and shook his head.
Then, he, Finn and the others turned around and looked at Miss Black Dragon with a strange expression and the Siren beside her.
After inviting them to sit in the pavilion next to the viewing platform, Yang Hao went straight to the point and said that due to the emergency, his meeting with Hei Long would not be too long. So if possible, he hoped that Hei Long could get straight to the point.
In response, Nia expressed her understanding and directly pushed the Siren beside her out:
"In short, this Siren is the chief engineer of this immigration. Her name is Chino, and she should be able to bring more changes to the United Nations."
"oh?"
Yang Hao raised his eyebrows: He had previously thought that the Sirens that came here were just rare populations with innate magical talents, but he didn’t expect that the one who came this time was actually an engineer - so, is this also the case for other Sirens
Yang Hao looked at Siren, and Siren looked at Yang Hao awkwardly and smiled:
"Um... Your Majesty? My name is Siren. I am a professional engineer from Isgard. But apart from me, the other Sirens who came here are just ordinary children. They haven't completed their engineering studies yet, so please don't put us in such a high position."
"I haven't asked anything yet? But never mind. Miss Kino, you are very self-aware. This will make the Sirens' subsequent work smoother.
Of course, I swear on my name that I will not force the Sirens to do jobs they don't like. But I hope that after they immigrate here, they can try their best to abide by our laws and live here."
"That's natural... But may I ask your name, Your Majesty?"
"Yang Hao."
Communicating with the self-aware Siren made Yang Hao feel very comfortable. After telling her his name, the next task actually had nothing to do with this little Siren.
After all, the next step is the diplomatic time between the two countries. At the reminder of the black dragon, the United Nations said that it would abide by its promise and deliver what Ishugard needed.
But at the same time, if the Black Dragon hopes to conduct more in-depth trade, Ishugard will have to show more sincerity.
Taking into account the fact that the Romans are not afraid of guns or people, but are afraid of huge dragons and gods, Yang Hao hopes that Nia can take time out from April 17 to be on standby in Constantinople until April 30 to accept the "first dispatch" of the United Nations at any time.
In response to Yang Hao's request, Nia said after thinking for a while that she was willing to accept the request, but the question was what conditions could Yang Hao offer
"More trade benefits, among other things..."
"Your Majesty Yang Hao, since I have done so much for you, can you give me a definite answer? The Kingdom of Eden will definitely install a large number of artificial magic reactors for the United Kingdom in the future... When those artificial magic reactors are retired, can you give us in Isgard priority in handling them?"
"That's..."
Chirp, chirp.
They discussed very efficiently, which was something Chino had never seen before.
After all, even in the palace of President Isgard, once important matters are involved, the efficiency of those congressmen in discussing will still be shockingly low.
Chino couldn't say whether the parliamentary system led by the President's daughter was better or worse than the current dictatorship of the United Nations, but at least everyone liked efficient negotiations. Therefore, when Lady Nia and His Majesty Yang Hao talked, although they seemed very nervous and anxious and had constant conflicts, in fact, after discussing one topic, both sides would immediately calm down and talk about the next topic.
All in all, as an engineer, Chino just likes this efficient way of communication - but then again
(Why would Lady Nia subconsciously make seductive moves while wearing such conservative clothes? No, do those clothes really work?)
Siren muttered in her heart, (This action can only be effective if you wear a dress that shows off your figure and is relatively revealing... Wait? Lady Nia? Have you fallen to the point of seducing others?!)
Siren was filled with astonishment: After all, that was Lady Nia? !
As the best among the black dragons, Nia must have many suitors in Isgard.
But the best attitude Nia had towards those suitors was to just kick them out.
Besides that, let alone "actively seducing" others, even when facing a young superstar from Ishgard, Lady Nia has never even looked at him straight in the eye...
This is a black dragon who values the development of the country more than his own life and happiness.
As a result, now it seems that this black dragon is actually actively seducing a man because of his own emotional problems
No no no... Chino ah Chino... Maybe this is your illusion.
This is just Lady Nia [choosing to seduce others for the sake of the country]. It is impossible that Lady Nia really has that idea in her mind, right
Looking at the Black Dragon pressing Yang Hao to give more chips, and looking at the seemingly smiling but actually stern expression on Lady Nia's face... Chino finally concluded that Lady Nia must have been forced to do this for the sake of Ishugard!
Poor Lady Nia, you have sacrificed so much for this country.
Chino was somewhat touched.
The black dragon, who was trying hard to gain favorable conditions for Ishugard, shuddered subconsciously. He always felt as if someone was thinking about him inexplicably, which was very strange.
(It can't be that something happened to Margarita in Ishugard...) The black dragon sighed, looking at His Majesty Yang Hao who had clearly agreed to other conditions but still refused to let go of the issue of how to deal with the [Artificial Magic Reactor after Decommissioning]. She gritted her teeth and decided to work harder:
"Your Majesty Yang Hao, what exactly do you need to do to get us to agree that this is a win-win situation for both of us?"
If all else fails, Nia can still use some killer moves... After all, the Sirens are here, so doesn't that give her more room to maneuver
What disappointed Nia again was that His Majesty Yang Hao still refused this matter:
"That's something from the Kingdom of Eden. Strictly speaking, we don't have the authority to deal with it. Perhaps you should talk to Elena in person when the time comes?"
"All right."
The black dragon sighed heavily. After confirming that he would be on standby for instructions starting on April 17 and that Ishugard would gain more support, the meeting was tentatively confirmed.
Then, under Finn's magic, Yang Hao and the others left the observation deck. After watching them leave under the power of magic, Siren sighed:
"In places with abundant mana, magic can be used like this... I'm really envious. After all, mana in most areas of Orros is so scarce that at most you can just cast a few fireballs and that's it."
"That's why I wanted to get that reactor... Sigh."
Nia sighed, patted her junior's head, and said that she had to go back and settle the other Sirens.
…
After finishing the negotiations with Black Dragon, the first thing Yang Hao and others had to do after returning to Constantinople was to meet with Theresa to determine the next military action and implement their plan to move south in advance.
After receiving the news, Theresa quickly finished all her work.
After all, this matter concerns the life and death of "Light", so she couldn't help but be nervous. Especially considering that this might further weaken the God of Light and even have the possibility of "killing" him directly, Theresa became more and more anxious.
Once a monarch starts to get impatient and reckless, it is not a good thing for his people.
So after Yang Hao held the little nun and comforted her for more than half an hour, he knocked on the table and said that they must ensure the normal development of the country, use a small force to cross the Roman Empire's already non-existent border, and fight a decisive war with the fanatics' army after arriving in Skull.
“We must crush their morale in the first round of battle and drive them towards the central area... I don’t want a large number of bandits to still lurk in the forests of Skool and Kagad after they become our territory.
At the same time, we cannot let this military action stagnate our domestic development. We must ensure that our society and industry develop as planned...
Therefore, how to carry out a strategic plan and how to strike a balance between war and development will become our top priority in the future.”
War is the fastest period for the development of science and technology. But Yang Hao does not need too much war technology now, because the war technology of the United Nations is far ahead of this country.
Now the United Nations needs more advanced industrial technology to ensure that the foundation of future development is solid enough. And these technologies can only be studied in peacetime.
To use a simple example, students will cram and temporarily memorize the answers to key exercises in their minds before taking an exam. However, these answers, which are written down directly from physical memory without deep understanding, have no meaning outside of the exam.
If you want to truly master this knowledge, you can’t just cram at the last minute. What students need is to study hard…
Applying this to the United Nations, "war" can only improve their skills in killing people, but it won't make them better at building their own homes. However, if their home building skills improve, they can support the war further in the future...
So how to make trade-offs in personnel allocation is another good question.
This is especially true considering that Theresa must be present to activate the church mechanism after the battle...
The number of troops should not exceed 2,000. This is the maximum number that can be used to minimize the impact on domestic development - how else can we make arrangements on this basis
"Can we use golems?" The chief of the Ling tribe tilted his head and gave his suggestion first: "After all, golems... even if they are made of stone and soil, they can pose a fatal threat to ordinary militiamen and fanatics... So, using golems is feasible, right?"
"Golems are definitely useful. But we can't withdraw too many golems from the country - on the one hand, it would take too much time for the golems to walk there, and on the other hand, our golems have to be used for domestic development."
"Let my kids make the cheapest golems on the spot?"
"Of course - but Naruga, we can't bring too many Ling people with us. You also know how big the shortage of Ling people is now, right?"
Yang Hao's bitter smile made the Ling tribe leader tilt his head helplessly.
After all, the United Nations is short of people everywhere. In addition to the general shortage of manpower, the shortage of Ling people is the heaviest among all the shortages.
After all, golems cannot create golems themselves, only the Ling people can create golems—
In this situation, the Ling people have to make golems for military use and civilian use, and even need to research more advanced golems...
It can be said that apart from Narujia, there are almost no Ling people who can be withdrawn from their positions at will—
Under such circumstances, it would be even more impossible for Yang Hao to bring the Ling people to the Territory of Skool just to make a bunch of cheap stone and earth golems.
So, what should we do now that Naluga’s proposal doesn’t work
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Finn raised her hand and said, maybe we should be more "traditional" this time
"In addition to archers, Yang Hao, have you forgotten that our elves' magic can also be of great use?"
The elf's archmage has rarely done work other than "teleportation" recently.
They were so bored that they started trying to make a new staff out of their guns.
In this situation, it seems to be a good choice to let the elven wizards stretch their muscles and teach the peasants a lesson with magic.
Yang Hao thought so too. After carrying the magic storage device, the local magic limit should be enough to support the mages to cast a few forbidden magics... But then again
"We are planning to build a new "Forest of the Elves" in Skool and Kagaard... Finn, are you sure that if we overdraw the local magic power in advance, we can officially start construction within this year?"
Faced with Yang Hao's doubts, Fen was silent for a long time and then shook his head:
"Not really. Even with a magic storage device, it's not going to work - the main problem is that the magicians' spells may seriously damage the terrain... just like the previous Parish War.
Unless we are only casting forbidden spells like Rain of Life, our magic will always cause great changes to the terrain."
"If the church is not affected, then the changes in terrain will not have a negative impact on the construction of the Elf Forest?"
"I can only say - it's hard to guarantee. After all, Yang Hao, you have been in Caparia for so long, you should have noticed that the Elf Forest is a complete "plain" forest, right
Although this is partly because the oak trees themselves have the ability to transform the terrain, when building the Elf Forest, it is best to ensure that there is a plain around the center point..."
However, the awkward part is that the elven wizards cannot release forbidden spells at will.
What Yang Hao meant was that if they had no intention of building the Elf Forest in the Territory of Skull from the beginning, then it wouldn’t matter even if the elves turned the land upside down.
But the problem is that in Yang Hao's development plan, the mines in the Skull Territory must be mined using the Oak Mine. The establishment of the Oak Mine requires the radiation of the Elf Forest.
This way, I got frozen.
To put it in a simple metaphor, the forbidden spells released by the elven wizards are "Hua Shi", and the plan of Yang Hao and others is "going to work".
If you don't have to go out for the rest of the day and can stay at home and enjoy life, then it doesn't matter how much chocolate you eat or how many times you go to the bathroom today.
But if you have to go to work sometime in the future... then before eating Wal-Mart, you have to consider whether you will start to have a stomachache on the way to work...
In the current situation, if the elven wizards use forbidden magic to deal with the fanatics, it is almost certain that they will cause serious damage to the terrain.
If Yang Hao wants to build the Elf Forest, he will have to find a way to reshape the terrain into a plain, which will be counterproductive...
But if the elves did not use forbidden techniques to deal with the enemy, then on the contrary, it would very likely lead to a disgusting tug-of-war, and there might even be tens of thousands of people running around in the nearby forest causing chaos.
Those fanatics, although they are a threat, are not that big a threat actually.
But to say that they can be ignored, they are like the large southern cockroaches that appear directly in the toilet when you are going to the bathroom. You want to ignore them, but they attract all your attention with their distinct presence...
Although Yang Hao knew that his idea might not be very realistic, to be honest -
Is there really no way we can find a way to get rid of these cockroaches while ensuring that the terrain is not seriously damaged
"Aren't our machine guns very useful?" The little nun in Yang Hao's arms curled her lips. "Can't we just use machine guns to kill them?"
"Machine guns are useful, and we will use them. We have not denied the advantages of machine guns... But even with machine guns and mounted artillery, we still lack weapons of mass destruction - the research on these weapons is still in progress. Before that, our efficiency in killing the fanatic army is destined to be slow."
