NOVEL NEXT Chapter 498 West Wind City
Outside the city of West Wind City in West Wind County, Orlando led all officials and his own Fire Lion Knights to welcome Verin's arrival.
Orlando looked at his knights with great satisfaction.
After twenty years of development, coupled with the continuous support of the Lord, the Fire Lion Knights have expanded from the original fifteen people to the current eight hundred people.
Sixteen high-level silver knights, fifty-two intermediate silver knights, one hundred and eighty-three low-level silver knights, 363 high-level bronze knights, one hundred and ten intermediate bronze knights, and Seventy-six bronze low-level knights were his answer.
Under the influence of the core of the battle method, the fighting spirit used by every knight of the Fire Lion Knights has the same origin as Orlando and can be passed on to each other.
Promote to the gold mid-level knight, learn the combat skills included in the core of the combat method [Intranet], with yourself as the core, and the fighting spirit of the same origin as the link, pull the hearts of the eight hundred knights into the unique Fire Lion Knights contact channel.
Limited by its strength, the internal network's current radiation range is only fifteen kilometers.
Seeing the figure in the distance, Orlando looked serious and ordered loudly: "Raise the gun."
Eight hundred knights sat up straight with serious faces, raising their spears and staring ahead.
Verin passed through the spear formation formed by the Fire Lion Knights and came to Orlando.
"My lord." Orlando knelt down on one knee and saluted Verin.
Verin turned over and dismounted, stepped forward to help Orlando up, and said helplessly: "Every time I come, you always give me a different feeling."
"However, I am very sure that leaving Xifeng County in your hands is definitely my most correct choice."
"Thank you for your compliment." Orlando said very modestly.
"Show me this West Wind City."
"Lord, please follow me."
Under the leadership of Orlando, the governor of Westerly County, Verin felt the local cultural atmosphere of Westerly City.
Compared with the peaceful atmosphere of Qixing City, the residents of Xifeng City are very martial. It is located in a border area, and weapons are hung in front of every house, ready for war at any time.
Each street has three to five competition stages.
Passing through the city, more than half of the competition stages are in use, where young adults vent their energy and seek to improve their fighting skills and methods.
Crossing the avenue, Verin followed Orlando to the Lord's Palace of West Wind City.
The city lord's palace was very simple, and Verin had a hunch that the two stone statues at the door were not made by Orlando.
Weilin was a little surprised when he entered the city lord's palace.
The decoration style is called simplicity at best, and poverty at worst.
"With so much money every year, where do you use it?" Weilin covered his forehead and sounded helpless.
After hearing this, Orlando lowered his head and replied: "My lord, most of the income of Xifeng County is invested in the construction of militia. As for the city lord's palace, I think it can be used for office work. There is no need to make a gorgeous decoration, as long as it can be seen."
"Well, your character...forget it, whatever you want."
"Tell me about the situation of the militia in Zephyr County."
"Lord, please follow me." Orlando immediately raised his head and said excitedly.
Following his guardian knight, Verin came to a side room.
In the room, there is a Xifeng County army sand table, which records the detailed landforms of the four areas of Changlin Town, Xifeng Town, Missian Town and Bede Town.
There are varying numbers of red chess pieces inserted in every village and town.
Orlando went to the bookshelf nearby, took down a recent record of the number of militiamen, and gave it to Verin for inspection.
"My lord, the current population of Xifeng County is 166,831, and the number of militiamen is 27,626. From high to low, the subordinates are divided into two levels."
"The first class, whose strength is at the intermediate level of Warrior Apprentice and above, is divided into three battalions. Each battalion has about 3,000 people, totaling 9,000 people. They conduct three days of training every month."
"The second level, whose strength is at the lower level of warrior apprentices and above, is organized into six battalions with about 18,000 people. They are used as reserve forces and undergo one week of training every three months."
"If the Lord needs it, under extreme recruitment conditions, 50,000 young men and women can be recruited from Xifeng County."
Looking at the data on paper, Weilin was very surprised.
In other words, Orlando seemed to have turned Zephyr County into a giant military camp.
If Weilin needs to expand his army, the three first-level militia battalions of Xifeng County will be mobilized and armed, and they will be equipped with officers and generals. It will become an army. Although its combat effectiveness is weaker than the standing army, it is definitely stronger than the army formed by those small nobles.
"I'm going to let you take over the new territory. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Verin closed the document and asked Orlando.
"As long as you need me, I can do anything." Orlando replied without hesitation, without any hesitation.
For him, the success of himself and his younger brother depends entirely on his family.
Without the Lord's words, he and his brother would have been sacrificed to the evil god back then.
"Zeferus is a territory located in the eastern part of the electorate of Feneus in the Kingdom of Silver Dragon Berk, covering an area of about 13,000 square kilometers. I will appoint you as the highest consul of this region, and you are also Zeferus. Legion Commander, lead the Fire Lion Knights to govern this area for me."
"I obey your orders." Orlando accepted this difficult task without hesitation.
Verin looked at his guardian knight and said, "Within ten years, I will have the Red Phosphorus Horse Farm deliver 3,000 red phosphorus horses to your knights."
"Thank you, Lord."
Two days later, after completing his inspection of Zephyr County, Verin returned directly to Star-Moon Castle and sent someone to call Randolph.
Randolph received the order, put down his affairs, and rushed to Star-Moon Castle.
"Lord."
"Randolph, I am going to make you the governor of Zephyr County. Are you qualified for the job?"
"As long as the Lord needs me, I will be a brick. You can put me wherever you need me." Randolph replied respectfully.
"Ash."
Hearing Weilin's voice, Hui stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Master."
After taking the seven-color life flower, Hui lived up to Weilin's expectations and successfully advanced to become a gold low-level black and white swordsman.
"This month, you will stay with Randolph and learn management experience. You will take over his position one month later and manage all the affairs of the Extraordinary Plantation."
"Starting from today, your codename will be sealed and your real name will be restored to Rahel."
"Yes, Master." Rahel knelt down on one knee, saluted Verin, and accepted the appointment.
After finishing speaking, Verin looked at Randolph and warned, "I'll leave Rahel to you. There can be no problems with the plantation."
"In addition, from now on, the forty Silver Wolf Knights will be under your command."
"Respect your will, my lord." Randolph came to Rahel's side, knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and replied.
A month later, Orlando resigned as consul of Zephyr, and Randolph took over as consul of Zephyr.
At the same time, Lahire, captain of the Lord's Guards, took over Randolph's position and managed all the potion plantations and extraordinary creature breeding farms in the Qixing Territory.
