"Lancaster Duchy is declaring war on the Elven Nation?" This announcement really surprised a lot of people. Everyone knew about the Elven Kingdom, but where was this Lancaster Duchy from? Orc Nation? Human Nation? Demons?
Fortunately, there was something like the forum. After a quick search, everyone found out that this Lancaster Duchy was the territory that Brother Awesome had just conferred. How important was Brother Awesome? He had just been conferred the title of Duke, and now he was declaring war on the Elven Nation, one of the Six Great Kingdoms on the mainland. Was this really okay? It was just a small Duchy. The Elven Nation was a kingdom. Even a Human Kingdom didn't dare to declare war on the Elven Nation. What was this small Duchy doing?
"He's the champion of the Suicidal Tricks Competition. This Brother Awesome can't win. " A player couldn't help but comment. No matter how they thought about it, it was impossible for Li Huailin to win. If one had painstakingly managed the Duchy for a few years and trained an invincible army, people might have believed that Li Huailin could win. However, Li Huailin had only taken over the Duchy for three to four days.
Of course, there were also people who supported Brother Awesome. No matter what Li Huailin did, they would support him. When they saw that Li Huailin had declared war on the Elven Nation, the group of fans exploded.
"Brother Awesome is mighty. Look, after a few days of silence, he's going to come out and scare people again."
"Awesome. He even declared this. He's so manly."
"That's awesome …"
Needless to say, Li Huailin, who hadn't been pinned for three to four days, went online gloriously. Everyone immediately expressed their deep concern about this matter.
Regardless of what the players thought, Li Huailin's territory was in a mess. He hadn't even finished collecting taxes, and now he was declaring war on a nation. What was going on?
"Hey hey, I've already called you Big Brother. What do you want?" Misty Rain looked at Li Huailin helplessly. "Why did you abandon the healer? Do you think we can defeat the Elven King? You haven't even recruited 200 cavalrymen, and I just went to buy your horses today. Where are you going to find people to fight for you? "
"Isn't there a second army?" Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Hey, the second legion is the empire's army, not your private army. You don't have the right to mobilize them to fight the elves," Misty Rain immediately said.
"Eh? Is that so? "Li Huailin quickly turned to Maccon, who had just learned of the incident.
"That's right, Marshal. Even though you're the legion commander, the Second Legion is directly under the empire. We can only attack with His Highness's order. Besides, it's only your Lancaster Duchy that has declared war on the Elven Kingdom. If you mobilize us, it will be a war between the two kingdoms," Maccon immediately said.
"Sigh … I see." Li Huailin also had a headache. Originally, he thought that he could provoke the elf on the opposite side, and when the favorability rose, he would directly ask her to give him the land. He didn't expect that it would not be so easy. Now that he had declared war, the elves would become people of the enemy camp, which was the same situation as the previous demons. Maybe after he killed them, his honor would be deducted or something. As for favorability, forget about it. It was the same as the judgment of monsters, how could there be any favorability?
"What do you think we should do now?" Misty Rain said with a headache. "Can't you just develop quietly?"
"Maccon, what if I forcibly mobilize the second legion like I did last time?" Li Huailin turned to ask.
"What? You can't do that, Commander. If you forcibly mobilize the second legion without the king's order, it will be equivalent to rebellion," Maccon said immediately. Of course, it was nonsense. Forcibly mobilizing the army without the king's order was definitely an act of rebellion, no matter what the goal was.
"Another rebellion? I really am a model soldier of rebellion. " Li Huailin smiled. "Alright, Maccon. Comrade, the second legion will receive my order to mobilize."
"What? Marshal, please reconsider, "Maccon said immediately.
System Notification: Are you really going to mobilize the second legion? This action may cause unexpected consequences.
"Yes, let's do that," Li Huailin said. "Bring the legion to my side and prepare to move out."
System Notification: Due to forcibly mobilizing the legion without a military order, the legion's loyalty has increased by 50 points. Morale has increased by 3 points. Some will receive an increase in favorability.
"Marshal, you disregarded orders and mobilized the legion for personal gain. This is no different from rebellion!" Maccon suddenly said. "It's great to have a marshal like you. It's a blessing for the second legion."
"Huh ~ ~?" Misty Rain stared at Maccon with an expression that said, "Are you crazy?"
"I'll go back now. I'll inform everyone about the marshal's order. I believe everyone will be very happy," Maccon said immediately.
"Hurry up. Speed is the most important thing in war," Li Huailin said with a wave of his hand.
"Yes, Marshal. I'll set off immediately." Maccon put down the document in his hand and ran towards the stable.
"That's possible?" Misty Rain said in surprise. "What kind of soup did you feed him? This guy is going to rebel with you? "
"The second legion is a rebel legion. Everyone is used to it," Li Huailin said. "Alright, now that we have soldiers, we won't be able to finish our rations. Isn't this fun to fight?"
"Hey hey, aren't you looking down on your opponent too much? Even if you have the entire second corps, they're still an entire kingdom. Didn't I just say that their elite army, the Silver Wind Guard, has 100,000 players? They definitely aren't any weaker than your army." Misty Rain said from the other side.
"I told you, NPCs are basically retarded. Think about it, have I ever lost a battle?" Li Huailin said. "To be honest, with the Elves' intelligence, I can't think of a reason why they can win."
"Think about it, how retarded are the Orcs? Every time they don't charge, they just charge. The Elves have been facing off against the Orcs for nearly a hundred years now, and they are still at a disadvantage. How bad do you think the Elves are?" Li Huailin spread his hands and said, "The humans now don't understand one thing. The Elves are no longer the race that could compete with the humans a hundred years ago. They overestimate their opponent's strength and underestimate their own. In fact, they should fight with the Elves now and let them know who is the boss of the Light Faction."
"Eh? Really? " Misty Rain wasn't very good at this aspect. He could help Li Huailin with regards to the economy, but Misty Rain basically didn't know much about the game between the big countries. Although he didn't understand, what Li Huailin said seemed to make sense. "So, you are saying that you are fighting this war after considering it?"
"No, the above is all nonsense. I can't make it up anymore …" Li Huailin immediately said.
"…" Misty Rain facepalmed.
"Anyway, I'll leave the logistics to you. I don't think there will be any big problems," Li Huailin said.
"Seriously, I don't even have time to manage the shop over there, and now I have to help you look after the territory," Misty Rain said.
"Isn't there a reward? Look, it's 310,000 gold coins. You can spend as much as you want. Buy whatever you want," Li Huailin said.
"How can it be so much? Do you know the annual budget of your territory?" Misty Rain asked.
Li Huailin shook his head.
"Forget it, don't worry about it. I'll take care of the money," Misty Rain said.
"Oh, no problem," Li Huailin said.
As they were talking, an NPC ran over. Li Huailin turned his head to look. It was an NPC that he had seen in the internal affairs department. He had always been by Maccon's side, and he seemed to be Maccon's secretary. Now that Maccon had left, the mission had probably been handed over to him. The NPC's name was Norman, and he looked like a young soldier in his twenties.
"Marshal." Norman ran up to Li Huailin and saluted. "Yesterday, you asked us to find people to build the warehouse, but no one has signed up."
"Huh? Why? " Li Huailin asked curiously. Wasn't this the suggestion Misty Rain had given him yesterday? To develop the infrastructure? The temple wasn't in a hurry, but the warehouse wasn't enough. It needed to be built immediately. Hence, he had put up a recruitment notice yesterday.
"I asked some of the villagers, and they said that Marshal's salary is so high that it's like you're giving them money. They're very angry," Norman said curiously.
"I …" Li Huailin opened up his territory page to have a look. Indeed, his popularity points had dropped by 4 points, and now it was 92 points. Fortunately, his reputation points were still increasing by 5 points per minute.
"How do you do things? Why don't you explain it to them? " Li Huailin immediately said, "Tell them that we're taking a 70% tax rate. The salary we're giving them is actually theirs. Now, they're working for us for free, and they still have to pay us. Do you understand? You have to explain it to them."
"Huh? Marshal, this … this isn't important? "Norman said. This was simply asking for trouble. Were they really not afraid of the villagers rebelling?
"Explain it as I say, understand? Next time, be smart. Don't ask me to teach you everything. If the villagers don't want to do it, send people to force them to work, and then force them to work. Do you understand? "
"This … this …" Norman was sweating profusely. As expected, there was a difference between him and the Grand Duke. How could this order be so domineering? "I … I understand what to do."
"Okay." Li Huailin nodded his head. He turned his head to look at the stupefied Misty Rain, "Where were we?"
"Stop your head!" Misty Rain couldn't help but say.
