Roddy had no idea how to govern the country.
Although his Efta Cabinet now had unprecedented control, there were still many problems after he actually held power for a period of time. To put it bluntly … Rody's understanding of 'politics' was still very shallow. If you really asked him to be a 'system designer', his level would definitely not be good enough.
He always looked at the current world with an extremely high illiteracy rate and backward productivity from the political standard of the 21st century. Therefore, many policies and decrees were often out of touch with reality and even had the opposite effect.
Roddy regretted not studying hard in politics class, but now he had no chance to make up for it. Now that he was faced with another "country" that could be controlled in his hands, he even had some indescribable resistance …
But after careful consideration, Roddy still felt that the more resources were integrated, the better.
No matter how the western countries on the Weibo forum advocated, Roddy always remembered a law that left a deep impression on him: All the so-called "prosperous periods" of all countries, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, had a common characteristic: the level of "centralization of power" was extremely high. Only by "centralization of power" could they do great things.
This historical law was placed in front of him. Even if Roddy could not analyze the deeper reason, it was enough to know that it was feasible.
He sat on the stone block in the ruins and pondered for half the night. Before he knew it, the sky had already turned bright. The dragon lords had a serious expression on their faces as they tallied up the casualty figures. There were a total of 12 elders, 53 young dragons, and 97 young dragons that had died in battle.
This was obviously the Dragons' heaviest loss in the past thousand years. Among them, the Black Dragon Herlöw clan suffered the most, accounting for more than a third of the casualties. This was because the Black Dragon Herlöw clan was known for close combat. Even their lord, Pucasto, was the bravest and most desperate.
And another statistic proved that … if it was not for Roddy's divine arts that saved them at the critical moment, the number of casualties would likely have more than doubled, including three lords.
Many of the Dragons' corpses were incomplete or even simply turned into pieces. Many young Dragons were sad, but they did not cry. As a higher race, "dying in battle" was the most heroic way for them to return to the embrace of the Dragon God. And all the sacrificed Dragons would leave their names and deeds in the Dragons' biographies.
This was a kind of glory for them who were proud.
As for the death statistics of Eiseka, it was impossible to calculate in a short time … It was hard enough for Udora and others to clear thousands of corpses in the outer city. In addition, the people who retreated last night had to come in. In order not to cause trouble in the morning, she was very busy.
Although there was a brief period of chaos in the city, the thugs were mercilessly executed by the Dragon Clan and the paratroopers as soon as they made their move. The corpses of the thugs were hung on several squares in the outskirts of the city to serve as a warning to the people.
Many of these unlucky people even lost their lives because of "stealing". But the Dragons and the paratroopers didn't care about the specific reasons. As the "temporary police", their order was "all those who disturb the order shall be executed." So an hour after the sun rose, more than a hundred corpses were displayed in the outer city in order.
During this time, Roddy discussed with Pucasto, and then directly assigned five Black Dragon Herlöw to the open space outside the city to build the "Diester Airport" which was ten times the size of Rasha City.
Anyway, it would be a waste not to use the free labor here, so Roddy simply tried to make the scale of the airport as big as possible. He hoped that in the future, the airport would be linked with several airports in Rasha City, Duriel City, and even the Kingdom of Karen to form a transportation line.
With the "aviation", a transportation method that surpassed the times, and the strong support of the Dragons, Roddy was confident that the cost of air transportation would continue to be reduced in the future until he could make a profit or even recover his capital.
In addition to the construction of the airport, the Green Dragons sent more than a dozen young Dragons to the farmlands outside the city to use magic to increase the production of food …
This was because not only the buildings in the city were destroyed, but the temple area and several granaries in the outer city were also severely damaged. For a city with hundreds of thousands of permanent residents, food shortage was a very serious problem.
Although it could be transported from other cities along the river, a short period of food shortage would not only cause a sharp rise in prices, but also easily lead to more vicious incidents, and rapidly deteriorate the perception of the people towards the temporary government.
Although forceful suppression was useful, what Roddy needed was long-term development and stability, not a short period of military rule. Therefore, the only way to better control the people at the bottom was to "use carrot and stick".
In a single night, Roddy could only decide on some basic policy directions, and the follow-up details could only be continued after the arrival of his team of advisors. Currently, most of his troops were on standby in La Xia City, and the capable officials were all in the Kingdom of Karen. Therefore, there was no need to rush the ruling of Dister City. The prerequisite for everything was to open the sea route first.
When it was close to noon, the feudal lords busied themselves with their own affairs, and agreed to go to Hovela City in the evening for a summary meeting. Roddy had not been tired since yesterday, and wanted to find a place to sleep first.
Four paratroopers armed with crystal spears surrounded him. Although with Roddy's strength, there were not many people who could hurt him now, as a prime minister, he still had to put on a show, lest the ordinary people in the outer city came up to him and asked him questions.
Walking past the suspension bridge that had been rebuilt, Roddy turned back to look at the temple area that had been changed beyond recognition … The courtyards and walls of the families of the twelve priestesses had disappeared, and the sunken area with a diameter of more than three hundred meters was completely barren, a stark contrast to Hovela City that was completely visible in the sky.
This city was still floating, proving that the believers' faith in Tapris was still firm. Roddy pondered for a while, and felt that this city that could rely on divine power to float in the sky was actually more suitable to be used as a real "Aerospace Mothership".
If there was an airport on it … Wouldn't it be possible to bomb and attack any country or region at any time?
But if he wanted to forge it into a weapon, it was still far from enough to rely on the current easily broken texture and structure …
Roddy yawned. He realized that he was more interested in a new way of war. After all, after recognizing the superior strength of the demons, letting humans master weapons that could kill the demons was the next most important thing. Roddy did not expect the few Dragons to always be the world's guardians … If there was another catastrophe, the entire world would basically be defenseless.
Thinking about these problems along the way, Roddy quickly found the hotel where Sally and the others were staying.
The number of deaths in the outer city was not too high, after all, most of the injured and dying had recovered in the end under the effect of divine power. Therefore, the first floor of the hotel could still see the trembling boss of the Thooks and two service staff.
When Roddy walked in, he found Natha sitting downstairs, and asked: "Why didn't you go to sleep?"
"I slept for six hours, and I'm already up."
Natha got up and answered. She had always been like a silent bodyguard, not saying anything unnecessary. But now that she saw Roddy, there was indeed a hint of surprise and a smile at the corner of her mouth.
