The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

Chapter 9

The scratches and swelling on Xia Zuoy’s body were already well, and his right arm was temporarily unable to move, and he was hung by a cloth on his chest.

While sitting on a chair to be fed by Udit, the servants came in and told the twelve knights sent by His Majesty the King to have arrived at the castle.

“I’m full, Udit.”

Xia Zoe swallowed the last bite of the soft white bread and said to the servant: “Bring them into the hall and wait for me. I’ll be there later.”

“Yes, Lord Earl.”

Xia Zoe cleared slightly and went over and saw twelve knights standing neatly in the hall.

Among them, one was standing in the forefront, with a straight posture and a handsome face. The helmet was taken off and placed in the arm of his left arm, while his right hand was casually pressing the hilt of the big sword tied around his waist.

His eyes were looking around curiously. After hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head and smiled at Xia Zoe: “Walker William is here to report, Lord Earl.”

Walker William raised his head, and the knights behind him reported their names one by one.

It seems that he is the knight commander who was sent to Wess for no reason.

Xia Zoe was picked up by Udit and sat on a high chair thinking, and then said: “It’s been a lot of hard work along the way.”

“I have made arrangements for the accommodation. You can go to rest first, and come to the lobby tomorrow morning.”

Walker William: “Follow your instructions, Lord Earl.”

After the twelve knights left.

Udit said: “My lord, what are you going to let them do?”

Xia Zoe: “The current population of Wessas is too small, and the same is true for the knights it has. There is no way to develop without talent.”

“The reason why they bullied me unscrupulously is because Wess is poor and backward, and there is no cavalry team to fight against… they look down on me.”

Judet felt sorry for his poor Lord Earl.

The little earl shrank in a chair with a grieved slumped mouth, his white cheeks bulged, and his long, curly eyelashes dropped slightly: “I need knights to serve in my territory, and I need more civilians to move to Visas. …What do you think? Udit.”

Judith: “It’s not easy, Lord Earl.”

Xia Zoe blinked: “I know, but benefits drive everything. As long as enough benefits are given, the heart-pounded person will voluntarily take the bait, don’t you think?”

Udit smiled and said, “It seems that you already have a plan.”

Xia Zuoyi: “Let’s go to the study and discuss it.”

…

the next day.

Walker William brought the remaining eleven knights to the hall to assemble.

“Excuse me, what is your order? Lord Earl.”

Xia Zoe motioned to Toby to hand over the things in his hands to them.

Toby stepped forward, and one person handed out a parchment.

“this is…”

Walker William’s smiling face showed a trace of doubt, and when he read the content on the parchment, he raised his eyebrows in surprise: “Wessian enlistment conditions and Wessian tax law?”

Taylor Kennedy could not help but read the number one conscription condition behind him: “…recruit men aged 14 to 20 years old for voluntary service, require health, no physical disabilities, no mental disabilities…Identities include but are not limited to civilians, Slaves, etc., can all undergo preliminary examination.”

Men on the Western Continent have reached the age of fourteen and reached adulthood.

What surprised Taylor Kennedy and even the other knights was that slaves could even run for election? !

Barna Larry said immediately: “My Lord Earl, this is not in compliance!”

“Never heard that slaves can become knights. This condition insults the glory of knights!”

The other knights also showed approval.

Walker William didn’t express his opinion, and he didn’t show much disgust or resistance when he looked at it. Instead, he looked down at the parchment with great interest.

Xia Zoe: “I understand that not everyone can become a knight.”

“A knight must learn all kinds of knight etiquette, receive various training and learn chivalry from an early age. The knight must possess the eight virtues, obey the morals, have a complete ceremonial entitlement, and make a declaration before the creation god…”

“Am i right?”

Interest flashed in Walker William’s eyes: “You are very correct, Lord Earl.”

Xia Zoe: “But even if you go through such a strict process to become a knight, can you guarantee that everyone can unswervingly abide by the spirit of chivalry, virtue and morality?”

The glory of the knight is not rigorous.

Walker William raised his mouth: “Of course it cannot be guaranteed, my lord.”

Taylor couldn’t help thinking of Keith William, he didn’t possess the virtues of a knight!

Barna Larry said: “Lord Earl, I also know that not everyone can become a qualified and perfect knight, but a lowly slave is even more impossible. The glory of a knight cannot be tarnished.”

Xia Zoe: “So it is stated in the enlistment conditions that slaves can only become reserve soldiers after being screened, and civilians become ordinary soldiers. They are not knights.”

The military system on the Western Continent is not perfect, the division of arms is not clear, and the fighting basically depends on knights.

But the Cavaliers are not productive, and it is very expensive to raise them.

For example, the Duke of Bath Ridges also had more than one hundred knights and two small cavalry under him.

The comparison shows how many knights of Wess can have.

Xia Zuoyi: “In the military, we rely on strength to speak.”

“Slaves can become free citizens by accumulating merits, and continue to accumulate merits to advance upwards, and the same is true for civilians.”

“Knights can hold important positions in the army, inspecting and assessing whether soldiers are eligible to become knights.”

He didn’t put all his thoughts on the parchment.

The highest position written on the paper is the knight commander.

But yesterday, he exchanged his reputation value for a copy of “Army Classification and Title.”

Wissas needs to develop slowly, and he also needs time to grow up. Put his ambitions in his stomach for the time being to save them.

Barna Larry seems to be still struggling with the point that “a slave can be a knight”.

Xia Zuoyi said: “I am in charge of my territory. You only need to obey and act on orders.”

Bana Larry closed his mouth angrily.

Walker William: “My Lord Earl, are you sure you want to do this?”

“The content on the parchment will probably arouse great repercussions after it is released. After all, as far as I know, this is unprecedented in the Kingdom of Gadaat…”

It is estimated to be the first one on the entire Western Continent.

Xia Zoe: “Of course, I’m sure.”

“Okay, follow your instructions.” Walker William smiled: “What do you want us to do?”

Xia Zuoyi: “I want you to find someone to copy a few more copies according to the content on the parchment, then go to Fort Comoy, and post the notices of the Wesas conscription and tax reduction in conspicuous places in the city. You preach and explain.”

“No matter what method is used, be sure to notify everyone in Fort Komoy of this content.”

“Remember, it’s everyone.”

The smile on Walker William’s face couldn’t help but widen.

The remaining eleven knights looked at each other for unknown reasons.

On the way to Fort Komoy via Paar Mountain.

Barna couldn’t help saying, “Sir William, why did you say that Lord Earl asked us to go to Fort Como to paste and paste this. What are the conscription conditions and tax laws… Even if you paste it, why do you want to talk about it?!”

He thought it was done in Visas.

Walker: “Master Earl naturally has his intentions, and we just do it.”

Barna’s face was depressed.

Could it be that he really wanted to preach the contents of the parchment to a bunch of civilians or slaves? I don’t know if I can’t open my mouth at that time.

Taylor Kennedy rode up to Walker William’s side: “My lord, what do you think of the Count of Desinia?”

“Interesting.”

Walker William seemed to have thought of something, and his smile deepened again: “Don’t you think this little Earl is very cute?”

White soft and round.

Taylor Kennedy was silent.

Because there is no way to refute this sentence.

He said: “Lord Earl seems to have some rifts with the lord of Komoy Castle…”

All recruiters have recruited the other side’s territory.

“Probably, who knows.” Walker said indifferently.

Taylor couldn’t help saying: “But Lord Earl asked you to go to Fort Comoy with us… Well, such a hateful thing, he must know that in your capacity, Earl Bivis Eliot will not be too Embarrassed and prevented.”

If it was replaced by a knight in Wisath, it would be nothing more than the result of being kicked out in the end.

Walker raised his eyebrows: “So, isn’t this Count Desinia very clever?”

“…You are right.”

After a while.

Taylor spoke again: “Master William, are you happy to come to Wessas? If there is a chance, do you want to return to the city?”

Walker William stopped the humming tone and looked at him: “If the little earl can always be so funny, I don’t want to go back to the city.”

“…Yes, I understand.”

Next, Taylor Kennedy stopped talking.

Fort Comoi.

Barna Larry sighed that this city was indeed richer and more prosperous than Wessas, and then stopped and waited for Walker William’s orders.

Walker: “Find a few literate civilians first, explain to them, then hire them, let them lead the way, each choose a direction, start from the edge of Fort Komoy and move forward into the city, sweeping preaching, clear ?”

“Clear! Your lord.”

The eleven knights answered extremely loudly.

On this day, Fort Komoy was “forced” into turmoil.

Shocked, surprised, unbelievable… and other emotions swept into every corner of the city, not letting it go.

Fort Comoi boiled.

Count Beavis Elliott finally knew the cause and effect of the incident, and was so angry that his lungs and liver ached and his whole body ached.

He was angry that Desinia had openly let the knight enter his territory to preach, recruit, and slap him in the face.

However, he was helpless.

After all, Walker William was not only a knight commander, but also the son of a marquis.

Beavis Eliot did not realize the danger to Fort Comoy under the conditions of the Wessian conscription, and in turn mocked Desinia for accepting lowly slaves and lowering taxes in the territory.

This is to extrapolate money.

But he didn’t know that the next establishment of a Chamber of Commerce to sell salt was Sha Zoe’s biggest support.

-The population is settled, and the army is raised by business.
