Chapter 289 Luther Has an Additional Reorganization Division
"But how to develop? Whether it's the number of wizards, the number of knights, or the reconstruction of the city, it takes time."
"I can't create a large number of wizards and knights out of thin air to serve the Pompeii family."
"Damn the New Party. If it weren't for the New Party's mess, I could have become a noble after twenty years of development. Now it's good. Although I became a big fat man in one bite, my heart is thumping, nervous and exciting."
Luther supported his chin with his hand, and then simply put his chin on the desk. His eyes rolled around, but he had no idea.
Actually, there are still some ideas.
Establish ordinary schools to improve the literacy rate of the people.
Establish extraordinary schools to increase the number of wizards and knights.
You can also carry out an industrial transformation in the territory and let the territory enter the industrial revolution. As long as it enters the industrial revolution era, the economy of the White Eagle Territory will take off.
These are all very safe methods, but the problem is that they all take time.
It takes seven or eight years to train a knight from the age of eight to fifteen or sixteen.
Training a wizard may only make him an apprentice for a lifetime.
Entering the industrial age is not just a simple talk. It requires arrangements in all aspects and time.
And how much time can Luther have between the conflict and war between the new party and the nobles?
"Ah. So annoying." Luther scratched his head, then rolled onto the desk, bent his legs, and put his hands on the back of his head.
Relax, relax.
Empty your mind and you will get the answer you want.
Luther was hypnotizing himself.
Just then, a knight walked in from outside. Seeing Luther's appearance, he was stunned at first, and then reported as if nothing had happened: "Governor, the guards reported that there is a large group of knights outside the north gate who want to enter the city. The leader claims to be your friend, the Battle Axe Knight, the Orleans Knight. The captain of the guards did not dare to let them in, so he sent someone to report."
Luther was immediately happy after hearing this. I remembered the conversation I had with the Knight of Orleans before. At that time, the Knight of Orleans revealed that he wanted to give up his mercenary career and come to Pompeii to be a guard.
At that time, Luther's answer was that the door of Pompeii's house would always be open to you.
This time, the Knight of Tomahawk and the Knight of Orleans not only came, but also brought a large number of knights.
And the Pompeii family lacked combat power.
Luther was of course very surprised, but also confused.
"The Sabretooth Mercenary Group is stationed in the Golden City, how can they come to Pompeii?" Although he was confused, the most important thing at this time was to welcome them.
Luther said to the knight: "Let the guards welcome everyone into the city, give them tents to rest, and ask the Knight of Tomahawk and the Knight of Orleans to come to the castle to see me."
"Yes." The knight responded and went down to deal with it.
Luther came down from the study to the hall and sat for a while. He saw the Knight of Tomahawk, the Knight of Orleans, and Mr. Al were there.
"Gentlemen." Luther stood up and shook hands with the three of them, and then the four of them sat down.
Now everyone's status is different from before. In the past, Luther was a burdensome little brat in their eyes, but now he is the famous Governor of White Eagle.
But the attitude of the Battle Axe Knight is still the same. After he sat down, he smiled and said, "Luther, we come to you."
"Welcome, welcome." Luther also said with a smile, and then expressed his doubts, "But now the New Party is making trouble in the central and southern regions, how did you get here?"
"It's a long story. Since the outbreak of the war, the Libyan Earl has reorganized the mercenaries in the Golden City, and the captain and some mercenaries have joined the Libyan Army. But we think we are civilians. Even if we join the Libyan Army, we are not trusted, and it is easy to become cannon fodder after the war begins, so we discussed and came to you. As for the journey, we crossed the endless forest."
The Battle Axe Knight said with a smile.
Luther understood.
The entire territory of Orange Province, the east, south and west are all surrounded by endless forests. Since the main road is blocked, we will make a way out.
The mercenaries are all experienced knights who can do this.
As for the Axe Knight's concerns, Luther also agreed. The mercenaries are not from the direct lineage of the Libyan army, and they will definitely be cannon fodder if a war breaks out.
"How many people are there in total?" This is the question that Luther is most concerned about.
"There are nearly a thousand people, five senior knights, thirty intermediate knights, and one hundred and fifty-two junior knights." The Axe Knight said with a smile.
"Mr. Knight, you brought me a knight group, that's great." Luther laughed happily.
"Not only that, did you see Mr. El? There are four junior combat wizards accompanying him." The Axe Knight pointed at Mr. El and said happily.
"I also have a wizard group." Luther was a little surprised, but even happier.
"Don't worry, sir, I will make proper arrangements for your accommodation, food, and clothing. As for the knights, I plan to reorganize them into a new knight group. Axe Knight, you will be the general."
Luther made a promise first, and then said to the Battle Axe Knight.
The members of the Sabre-toothed Tiger Mercenary Group are different from the nobles who fled. Luther needs to take care of all the lives of the mercenary group members.
"General? A very high-sounding title." The Battle Axe Knight was slightly stunned, and then joked.
The members of the general knight group are at least intermediate knights, and the leader is usually a great knight.
There is no way for Luther, so he can only lower the requirements.
The Battle Axe Knight did not expect that he would become a general one day.
"Hehe." Luther smiled, and then personally took the Battle Axe Knight and others to the City Hall, asking Mayor Lelouch to provide a station for the Sabre-toothed Tiger Mercenary Group and arrange for the families brought by the members to have proper accommodation.
Afterwards, Luther also met the other three combat wizards who came with him this time. In addition to the formal wizards, there were also some wizard apprentices.
Luther also met them together.
Mainly expressed the host's hospitality.
After meeting these wizards, Luther had the idea of forming a formal wizard group.
Every large territory has a considerable number of wizards. The more prosperous the city, the more wizards there are. Because wizards make money by selling potions, the more wealthy people there are in a prosperous city.
Rich people usually want to get a knight's body by taking medicine.
So there is a supply and demand relationship.
In this case, every powerful lord will have a wizard group, which is both a magic consultant and a combatant.
Of course, in order to obtain the loyalty of wizards, lords usually have to pay a certain price.
