Chapter 367 Changes in the Battle Situation

Yan Xing turned to look at Carol, her blue eyes shining with clear brilliance under the sunlight.

Be sincere and not have any distracting thoughts.

"It seems that all my efforts are worth it. If you are really determined, the Silvermane Kingdom needs a complete change."

Carol sat down in the chair next to Yan Xing and asked, "Does it need to be so radical? We have a war going on."

Yanxing pulled out a few documents from the table and handed them to Carol: "If you are determined, you can change at any time. If you are timid, you will never have a good time.

My people did a statistics. Using the kingdom's existing logistics system, at least one-third of the supplies will flow into individual pockets, or more.

In fact, when supporting the infrastructure construction of the aristocratic territory, we have already discovered the problems inside. Is that why Eternal Grain Bank takes the right to pay the loan funds in its hands instead of giving it directly to the nobles?

Now some of these people have entered war contracting companies. You can look at the plans they gave and the plans we formulated. They really don’t know how to restrain themselves.

If you want political stability, I will implement the plan they gave you. After all, these are the kingdom's money.

If you want the Silvermane Kingdom to be revitalized, you have to have the courage to knock it down and rebuild it. "

"This will trigger a civil war! It will also cause immeasurable losses to your investment...The worst-case scenario is that we lose this country."

Yan Xing smiled and said: "I am willing to bear this kind of loss. Even if all my current investment projects in Silver Mane Kingdom are destroyed, as long as I can clean up the filth in Silver Mane Kingdom, I think it is worth it."

As for losing this country, that is impossible. Change will bring opportunities to some people, there will always be people who will support us, Thunder Swamp will support us.

And I feel like now is a good time.

Catch them off guard before they think you've compromised. "

Carol tilted her head to admire Yan Xing, pursed her lips and smiled: "Since this is your wish, I will definitely carry it out.

Where do you think the knife should fall from? "

"Agricultural reform!"

Land is the foundation of everything, and land is tied to the common people and farmers at the bottom. To control the land is to control the most basic public opinion at the bottom. The reason why the nobles dare to so unscrupulously harvest the kingdom's wool is because they control the land.

The value shown by land is food.

But Carol couldn't figure out why Yan Xianxing would put his first priority on agriculture.

"I thought you would start by tackling corruption."

Yan Xing explained: “Combating corruption affects the whole body, and the people we are dealing with will immediately understand our intentions.

Change does not mean killing a group of people immediately.

The way the kingdom now purchases grain is that noble lords first collect grain from farmers, and then the country collects grain from the noble lords. The pricing power for purchasing grain was in the hands of the nobles, and they could also negotiate with the state.

The nobles could obtain cheap grain from farmers by collecting rents and offering low prices, and then bribed kingdom officials to sell to the kingdom at high prices.

When it came to food, the peasants relied on the nobility, and the kingdom also relied on the nobility.

If the kingdom could directly set a fair price to purchase grain from farmers, not only would there be no middlemen like nobles to make the difference, but it would also separate farmers from these nobles. "

The smart Carol quickly understood what Yan Xing meant.

If the peasants and the nobles can be separated to a certain extent, then when the kingdom deals with this noble, it will be difficult for them to gain widespread support from the peasants in the territory.

When fighting a civil war, it will be easier to eradicate them.

"But the nobles will never agree." Carol shook her head.

"The nobles will certainly not agree, and we will make them agree."

Carol asked, "What should we do?"

Yan Xing told his plan: "You should know that Eternal has food, a lot of food. If I waive transportation fees and transport food to the Silver Mane Principality on a large scale, the food in the Silver Mane Kingdom can be saturated.

The kingdom does not need to buy grain from the nobles. After the grain is harvested next year, the nobles will not dare to purchase grain from farmers. At this time, the kingdom can directly collect grain from farmers in the form of agricultural subsidies at a price slightly higher than the price paid by nobles. "

Carol said: "The greedy nobles will definitely take most of the money away."

"That's none of our business. What's important is that our money doesn't go through the hands of the nobles and goes to the farmers. As long as the farmers get more money than in previous years, our goal will be achieved."

Carol finally understood Yan Xing's intention.

Let the peasants be grateful to the kingdom, not to the nobles.

This can solve a big problem.

"It seems that during this period, I should find a way to control more troops."

"Yes, control more troops and promote as many officers without noble backgrounds as possible. After blocking the attack of the Griffin Heart Empire this time, there will be a war gap during the harvest of food in the summer. We will use this time difference to Fight a civil war as quickly as possible to completely clean up the kingdom’s stubborn diseases.”

The plan formulated by Yan Xing is highly feasible and the benefits are unprecedentedly large.

If the corrupt old aristocracy can be completely eradicated, Carol will gain power that she can't even imagine now.

The excitement made Carol's breathing a little short. She held up the red wine and invited Yan Xing: "Let's drink a toast to this change first."

Yan Xing picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Carol: "Cheers."

After confirming that there was going to be a major purge and revolution of the Silver Mane Kingdom, Yan Xing looked at the documents on the table and felt much better.

approve! approve!

In a few months, no matter what you guys eat, I will vomit it out.

After Carol returned to the palace, she immediately issued a food procurement decree:

In order to cope with the food crisis that may be caused by the war, the Silvermane Kingdom will purchase food from the Eternal Territory to replenish the national food bank and ensure the food consumption of the citizens for a year.

As soon as the decree was promulgated, it immediately caused shock among the nobles of the kingdom.

If the country purchases so much grain from Eternal Territory at one time, it will not purchase grain internally next year. Doesn’t this force farmers to go bankrupt?

Don't wait for this wave of public opinion to blow up.

The palace then issued a second decree: In order to protect farmers from excessive losses, the kingdom would purchase grain from farmers at a price slightly lower than the market price.

In order to ensure that the compensation can be distributed to every farmer, the Kingdom will entrust the Eternal Grain Bank to distribute the compensation this time.

At the same time, Queen Carol also comforted the nobles privately.

The country was in dire straits, so we borrowed a lot of money from Eternal Life for the war, and we could not purchase grain from them at the same price as last year.

I hope the nobles can endure it and make some contribution to the kingdom's victory.

In the next year, the Kingdom will definitely resume its food procurement pattern as in previous years.

The nobles believed that they had suffered huge losses, but they couldn't say much.

Everyone owes Eternal Money, this is a fact.

It is also true that the kingdom owes more for the war.

You can only accept one year as bad luck.

But if part of the compensation paid to farmers is collected, the loss is actually not that big.

Nothing happened.

The main reason is that no one thinks that Queen Carol will choose this time to kill the old aristocracy across the country.

This is simply digging your own grave.

Agricultural reforms in the Silvermane Kingdom are being promoted smoothly.

In order to paralyze the nobles, Yan Xing was willing to spend money, which made the establishment and operation of the war contracting company very smooth.

The Silvermane Kingdom's war machine was running smoothly, and the morale of the soldiers of the Kingdom's army was high in the face of the aggressive Griffin Heart Empire's attack.

but! Just when Yanxing thought everything was fine.

In the end, what he least wanted to see happened in Northland.

When Elledor commanded the elven army to attack the wild orcs, the fight went extremely smoothly.

The main force of the elves easily defeated the Border Mountains, established a foothold at the southern foot of the mountains, and established three camps to turn the Border Mountains into their own background.

The coldness of winter greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the orc army, and the elves who came from the north side of the mountain to the south were pleasantly surprised to find...it was so comfortable here.

However, Elledo has always adhered to the strategic policy Yan Xing set for himself, relying on the border mountains to set up defenses on the spot, and not taking the initiative to launch an attack too deep into the hinterland of the wilderness.

Everything was normal in the early stages of the war.

The wild orcs organized many counterattacks, but they failed to shake the defense line established by the elves.

Elledo beat him like this, which made Yan Xing feel relieved. Coupled with being entangled in all kinds of bad things in Silvermane Kingdom, I couldn't help but pay less attention to the snowy border.

Just the consecutive victories made the snow elves become arrogant.

The orcs' military discipline is loose, their weapons are backward, and their fighting spirit is nowhere to be seen.

Especially as the winter gets colder and colder, many orcs exposed to the wild become frozen and stiff, becoming targets that cannot be avoided.

The climate advantage is on the Elf's side.

The weapon advantage is on the side of the elves.

The morale advantage is on the side of the elves.

In front of them is a vast wild plain. The elves can launch a large-scale attack and annihilate the effective strength of the orcs.

Even if the attack target is not the barbaric capital, the target can still be the mountain city.

Cut off the connection between the mountain city and the wilderness from below the high winds.

Without the wild blood transfusion, Gaoshan City would not be able to support an army of more than 100,000 people.

After seeing the combat plan sent by his subordinates, Elledo broke through the defense almost instantly.

He once made a request to Yan Xing for the Eternal Territory to cooperate in the attack on Gaoshan City, but was rejected.

If he could lead the warriors in the snow to complete the blockade behind Alpine City, the allied forces of the orcs and humans in Alpine City would have no choice but to seek a decisive battle in order not to starve to death.

As long as the army in Gaoshan City moves, no matter which direction it goes, the Eternal Territory will definitely take action.

Although doing this will make Yan Xing angry, it can annihilate all the elite orcs in Gaoshan City, and the wilderness will be free to be slaughtered by the snow.

As for violating Yan Xing's strategy...

Elledo considers Snowfield to be an important member of the Thunder Alliance and is very important to the Eternal Territory. If you do this yourself, it won't cause too much damage to the alliance, but it can create an unparalleled contribution to the snow.

Elves can leave the bitter cold snow and move to the warmer and more livable wild plains.

Therefore, Elledo did not report his battle plan to Yan Xing, but instead made secret preparations without letting the liaison personnel of the Eternal Territory notice.

On the day of the attack, the three camps built by Xuedi at the southern foot of the Border Mountains launched an attack on the orcs at the same time.

The main forces of two of the armies were aimed directly at the capital city of the Wilderness, with the intention of destroying the Wilderness country in one fell swoop, forcing the orcs to concentrate their forces in the direction of the capital.

The main force of the other army went south to block the back road of Gaoshan City.

As long as the defenders in Gaoshan City move, the purpose of this war will be achieved.

When the battle began, the elves' attack was really devastating.

Under the crushing charge of the tank group, the orcs had no ability to fight back, and were chased by the elves and kept running back.

Countless corpses and supplies were left behind along the way.

However, the elves still misjudged the vastness of the wild plains and had no experience in making such a large-scale in-depth advance. In the process of chasing the defeated orc army, the team became longer and longer, and the more they fought, the more they scattered. Everything was just as Yan Xing said to Elledo.

The logistics could not keep up, so the attacking elf army had to stop and wait for the supply convoy.

Only then did Yan Xing know that Xuedi had launched an all-out attack on the orcs on his own initiative, but he still didn't know Elledo's attack plan.

He put down his work in Danling City, flew to the Eternal Territory urgently, and summoned his generals for a military meeting.

Discuss how to respond to subsequent changes in the war situation.

Attacking the mountain city, opening up the connection with the main force on the snowy border, and protecting the flanks of the allies became what the Eternal Territory had to do.

But before the Eternal Territory could respond, the situation in the entire snowfield suddenly changed for the worse.

On the wild battlefield, Yunzhong Tower sent a large number of mages to directly participate in the battle, and the orcs sent their true main force, which had been hidden, to attack the scattered elves from all directions.

In the snow, a group of royal elves launched a coup, and the royal court fell into chaos.

Moreover, a large number of underground races came to the surface from the underground and plundered the elven cities and villages like bandits.

These underground races are few in number, but they are all very elite. They are all equipped with alchemical weapons from the tower in the clouds, wearing thick cotton coats, and are not afraid of the cold winter at all. UU reading www. uukansｈhu.net

Most of the Snow Elf's troops are on the border battlefields, and the rest are concentrated in Frostleaf City and Royal Court. There are almost no regular troops elsewhere.

The weapons are also cold weapons from the past.

Only then did Yan Xing realize that this was a long-planned plan to crush the snow elves.

In border wars, the orcs have been losing battles just to lure the elves to attack, using space to offset the elves' weapon advantage, and expose their disadvantage of having fewer troops.

Now there are only two choices before Yan Xing.

The first is to attack the mountain city and rescue the main elves who have fallen into the trap and are fighting hard.

The second is to enter the snow with arms, go to the Elf Court to quell the rebellion, and eliminate the bandits in the underground city.

Secure this important ally.
