One Hundred and Fifty-Three Security Issues
"What is moving the capital to Ferry City?" Chris looked at the bill in front of him, frowned at the ministers in front of him, and asked suspiciously.
Defense Minister Kastner replied: "We consider the impact of the assassination incident and think that it is very meaningful for you to set up a capital in a place farther away from the magic realm."
"If you don't think it's appropriate, we can set up a companion capital in Ferry City, so that similar high-level magicians can be assassinated, and it will be easier to defend." He looked at Chris and said the defense plan of the Ministry of Defense.
"That's why you vetoed me to personally inspect Veronsa?" Chris didn't continue to talk about this question, but looked at Des and the others and asked a seemingly unrelated question.
A few days ago, he was going to take a look at the Velonsa area ceded by the Magic Empire, but his idea was pressed by the Guards headquarters. Later, the Ministry of Defense and the military participated in this plan, and Chris's westward plan could only be abandoned.
Diens nodded, admitted Chris' speculation, and persuaded: "Yes, Your Majesty, if you go to the magic field, we cannot guarantee your basic safety, relying only on a great magician Frenzberg, is not enough."
Alan Hill, who is not very capable of fighting alone, can only use the Forbidden Magic Domain to protect himself. This is a strategy that uses the characteristics of mortals to protect mortals.
According to Ailan Hill's idea, that is, in the future, when Ailan Hill's individual combat capability increases and can protect His Majesty the Emperor, let Chris go to the magic field.
Kastner also agreed with this view, nodded and said: "If you rashly enter the magic field, maybe the puppet empire will send killers to attack you, which will make us very passive."
Des also joined at this time: "We imagined before that, if we could hire, or contact Greiken, would it be feasible to ask a higher-level magician to protect your safety... But we finally thought that taking you It is very unsafe to rely on Greiken's safety."
"So I can't set foot in the magic field in my lifetime? Just because I'm afraid that a magician will assassinate me?" Chris smiled, pointed to the tip of his nose and asked the people in front of him.
Des on the side immediately answered: "Isn't this enough? Your Majesty! If you have a problem, then we will be in a situation of leaderless... For thousands of years, we only have this chance, so we can't go out. any mistakes."
Looking at the firm-eyed subordinates in front of him, Chris finally chose to compromise. He knew that the other party was doing it for his own good, so he had no way to refuse such kindness.
So he could only nod his head and agree with some of the orders: "Okay, I can understand your thoughts, but it's a bit outrageous for me to give up Seris and move the capital to Ferry City?"
In his opinion, he was a little reluctant to let him give up the city of Serris, which he had been running for so many years. I don't know if I can't give up the people here, or I can't give up the foundation here.
At this time, a minister opened his mouth and said to Chris: "According to the information provided by Miss Vivian, it is very inconvenient for high-level magicians to move in the forbidden area. If they can effectively increase their movement distance, it will consume their magic. energy, it can also effectively reduce their combat effectiveness."
Another minister in charge of education followed Hui and reported: "So, we made a precise calculation, if you are in Ferry City, a strong person like Miss Vivian can only fight Frenzberg there. A tie..."
Chris nodded, looked at the ministers who were trying to ensure his safety, and asked, "That is to say, if I go to Ferry City, a magician as powerful as Vivian will not be able to do so after arriving in Ferry City. Are you coming to kill me?"
The minister nodded and replied: "Theoretically, this is the case. And we can also get on the boat at Ferry City and retreat to the sea further east... Magicians can't continue to fly eastward in Ferry City, so they can't pursue... In the end, I can only give up and leave.”
"Okay, I understand what you mean, I won't insist on going to Veronsa, at least I won't go to Veronza to inspect until I guarantee my own safety." Chris nodded, be regarded as approval the words of these people.
Chris really felt that he was too aggrieved. As an emperor, he couldn't even inspect his own territory-he had to always be careful of those assassins from the west. Ever since Vivian arrived, this matter has become a problem. repeatedly on the agenda.
The ministers suggested that Chris move the capital to the Arrant region further southeast, preferably a port close to the coast. That way, Chris has plenty of time to take shelter by boat after the troops spot the intruder.
"However, you suggested that I move the capital. I think it's better not to discuss it for the time being. If I move to Ferry City for safety, how can I explain it to the soldiers stationed in the far west?" He posed. He waved his hand, blocking the words of the ministers who wanted to continue their advice.
"But I can approve your compromise plan. I don't want to die yet, so if I can guarantee that I won't die, I'm still willing to struggle." After seeing the alternative, Chris continued.
As he said, he pointed to the second set of plans: "I agree to move my headquarters to the outskirts, fortify it separately, and use mines and anti-aircraft guns for intensive defense."
This set of defenses is almost city-level, with mines all around, and then thick reinforced concrete fortifications are built in the core position, and anti-aircraft guns are arranged around the fortifications for vigilance.
Detection equipment is installed on the heavy fortifications, and a large number of explosives are arranged at sensitive locations such as entrances, in order to ensure the absolute safety of Chris. The entire new fortress even has its own independent power supply system, as well as lifts to access the second and third underground floors.
Chris nodded while looking at it, and continued: "I also agree to set up a dedicated airport next to the base. After getting an early warning, I can take a special plane to leave immediately."
He knew that this way, the troops guarding him could take Chris away by plane, which was also a very thoughtful design.
When his passenger plane takes off, fighter jets from all nearby airports will follow Chris to retreat eastward, and hundreds of ME-109s are responsible for the absolute safety of Chris in the sky: "At the same time, I also approve that when necessary, the All fighter jets take off to escort..."
"Finally, I am also willing to allocate funds to build a battleship with heavy armor and strong power. As my royal battleship, it will be guarded in Ferry City and take me to sea for refuge at any time." When he saw the last page, Chris even saw A battleship built specifically to protect him.
With this battleship, after Chris's plane arrives at Ferry City, he can immediately leave the sea. Even if the magician has a way to chase, there is no good way to continue the pursuit.
You must know that even a magician comparable to Vivian, who flew so far in the forbidden magic realm, had no magic reserve, and attacked a steel battleship full of artillery.
"Okay, are there other issues to discuss?" After he finished speaking, he continued to look at the other ministers and asked.
"The second issue is the facts about population incentives... We're trying to get back to the pre-war population, and we've committed to using a new tax code that prohibits taxing children. We're giving population subsidies, and it's working really well. ." The Minister of Taxation said as he introduced.
The minister in charge of education also spoke up and talked about the progress of his work: "The education system has been supported, although there is still a shortage of teachers in some areas, but on the whole, our five-year compulsory education has been implemented very successfully and benefited from With the magic ball of knowledge, three years from now there will be no illiteracy in our country."
"However, our spending on education is too large, even more than the military's spending. Do we need to revise it?" Defense Secretary Kastner asked.
"No! No changes are needed! I will also appoint the corresponding Minister of Education. As long as Alan Hill still exists, our education will not be stagnant for a day!" Chris waved his hand and rejected the proposal.
He looked at his ministers and emphasized: "After all, this is the foundation of our foothold! We don't have the strong fighting power of magicians, so we can only arm ourselves with knowledge... If we don't pay attention to knowledge, Then one day we too will be eliminated by knowledge."
"The other issue is about the navy... Since we have a hunch that we won't use the navy too much in the next ten years, this proposal by General Lawens... I think it's a bit too wasteful."
"What is he going to do? To apply for so much money, to build 10 large steel warships? Who is he going to fight? Except for the little guys like the Jasno Empire and the Palak Empire, he has no opponents at all!" Desai I also felt that investing money in the navy was really not worth it.
"Approve half for him! The other half is invested in Port Osa! Build the dock there, and we have to ensure that we can immediately start building more navies when needed!" Chris thought about it and gave the order.
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Several ministers recorded Chris' orders, and then continued to start the following issues. They have too many decisions to make, because Alan Hill is now, so to speak, moving forward every day.
