Chapter 571 View and adjust the project progress bar

David agreed to Carla's request and also asked what kind of world Carla wanted to live in.

Kara didn’t care about this. She even asked David if he could take her with him when he went out with Hu Huishan.

Of course, she will not disturb David. She can fly to the outside of the earth alone to bask in the sun until David is ready to return to Winter City.

   …”

Looking at Carla’s attitude, she wished that she would follow David every time he went to the new world. She was not going to be a light bulb, but was just making reasonable use of all the time she could get to bask in the sun.

David agreed and said he would call Kara when he set off. Hearing this, Kara happily asked David if there was anything else he needed help with.

 After hearing that it was gone, Kara flew away directly. When preparing to go back, she packed a change of clothes and other items in advance so that she could set off immediately after receiving the message.

 David continued to run around, preparing the necessary positioning props.

After working for a while, and even going around the Marvel Universe, David, who was finally ready, did not rush to find Hu Huishan, but called Elizabeth Swann, the current head of Winter City's police department. Said hello.

  Elizabeth was already mentally prepared for the reorganization of the police department.

The construction speed of Winter City is very fast, and she has gradually begun to feel that she is unable to do what she wants. After all, she is not a professional in this field. She was able to hold on for such a long time. First, the environment of Winter City was relatively simple in the early stages of construction, and second, she herself He is extremely smart and can barely cope with various emergencies.

Coupled with the fact that his father Weatherby, who was experienced in politics, could be consulted, the security situation in Winter City was barely maintained.

Of course, the key is the support of His Majesty King David Glamorgan to Elizabeth, which allows her to do whatever she wants.

 But as the permanent population increases and the complexity of the population structure continues to increase, Elizabeth has realized that sooner or later she will have to give up her position.

Of course, David will not dismiss Elizabeth from her post. She has worked in this position for several years, and she has worked hard and made many contributions to the development and construction of Winter City. She must be rewarded according to her merits.

 When David had some information with Elizabeth, he made it clear that Elizabeth would serve as the director, or minister, of the newly reorganized police department for a period of time.

But the specific work will gradually be handed over to the people below, and after a few years of smooth transition, she will be transferred to other positions.

In this position, David will also respect Elizabeth's ideas and ask her if she has any positions that she is interested in?

 “What do you think of me being a captain?”

 “Captain?”

"Yes, I used to yearn for those pirates who could freely adventure on the sea." Elizabeth was not embarrassed. She had been in Winter City for several years. She knew the situation in the city clearly, and her people Assuming that everyone probably knows it, there is no need to be embarrassed to say it: "Of course I won't go out to be a pirate now, but if I can become a captain, it can be regarded as fulfilling a wish."

Moreover, commanding a battleship to fly through space is definitely more enjoyable than just hanging out in the Caribbean Sea.

“Then you have to study the relevant knowledge carefully in the past few years.”

"Of course, if my grades are not up to standard, I will not be ashamed to hold such an important position." Considering that the first few battleships currently planned to be built in Winter City have already appointed captains, Elizabeth wants to wait until her own battleship , it will take several years.

 She could think about the name of her battleship in advance?

Is it called the Caribbean number? Or Royal Caribbean? This is a very important question, she should think about it carefully...

 After sending Elizabeth away, David chatted with Weatherby Swann, Gareth Stanton, and Sylvanas respectively.

At present, there are no major changes in the internal affairs of Winter City. It is still mainly absorbing civilians from the Matrix world smoothly, with civilians from other areas on the Brunnia continent mixed in.

The overall development plan is still centered on the northern plains. As for the territory of the former Holy Kingdom of Gaunt, it will be good if the situation can be stabilized for the time being.

It will take time to completely transform these people of the Holy Kingdom of Gunter into subjects of the Kingdom of Winter. As long as it is ensured that the Holy Kingdom of Gunter and the temple do not have repeated influence from the remaining forces, sooner or later these people will become real people. Winter people.

 “The army must be expanded.”

Gareth Stanton, who has been promoted to general and no longer serves as the leader of the Winter Knights, said that the Winter Legion must recruit recruits steadily in the next few years and continuously expand the size of the army to meet the future needs of the Winter Kingdom.

 Leave aside His Majesty the King's decision to start sending troops to other worlds, just ensuring the stability of the Winter Kingdom's current vast territory requires an astonishing amount of standing soldiers.

In addition, the continuous recruitment of soldiers to expand the army also creates stable jobs for Winter City and ensures the security and stability of Winter City.

  People are constantly migrating from the Matrix world, and there is no shortage of people who lack skills or who cannot integrate into the life of Winter City in a short period of time. These people are all unstable factors.

 In addition to the constant opening of new factories, the Winter Army is actually a very good choice. As long as they are willing to join the army, they may get a better future than ordinary jobs. “It is planned to increase the number of soldiers in the Winter Legion to around 30,000 in the next few years…”

“Too conservative.” Thirty thousand people may be a very scary number for people like Gareth who were born and raised in Brennia. But for David and the future Winter City, this number of people is simply not enough.

 “First, work hard with 100,000 people.”

   …”

As for whether Winter City can support an army of 100,000 people? David wasn't worried.

The agricultural area of ​​Winter City has been expanding. In fact, new land is being reclaimed into farmland in the entire northern plain every day. This is the result of Winter City deliberately controlling the speed. Otherwise, there would be even more farmland than there are now. times.

The key is that the farmland output of Winter City has been increasing, and the output of various crops has not decreased but has continued to grow. In addition, since David established Winter City, the Winter Kingdom has not suffered any natural disasters, ensuring a stable supply of all types of food. .

Not to mention, food can be ‘imported’ from other worlds when necessary.

Winter City has sufficient food and a wide variety of food. Coupled with official control, it ensures that ordinary people in Winter City do not have to worry about eating, creating a stable base limit, which is why David wants to expand his army by 100,000. confidence.

 Even a hundred thousand troops is just the beginning. After all, the Kingdom of Winter will unify the world in the future. Even if a hundred thousand troops spread out to the entire planet, it will not be enough.

 In the future, the minimum standard will have to be one million. If we want to develop into the vast universe, the number of soldiers will need to be even higher.

By then, Brennia alone may not be able to provide sufficient troops, and David may recruit soldiers from other worlds.

 The same thing was mentioned to Floyd and Sylvanas after talking to Gareth.

According to David's requirements, the Knights of Winter need to steadily expand to 5,000 men in the next few years; the Knights of Tyran need to expand to at least 10,000 men.

   …”

When these two people first heard David's words, they both had the same reaction, thinking that David had said the wrong number.

After repeatedly confirming that His Majesty the King was not joking, he began to seriously think about how to achieve the goals set by His Majesty the King.

Compared to the Winter Legion's goal of 100,000 people, the Winter Knights and the Tyran Knights have high requirements for the quality of their members, so it takes more effort to complete this task.

For example, Floyd began to seriously think about whether to initiate a relationship and ask Steve and Rumlow to return to his world to bring back a group of special talents; Sylvanas was also seriously thinking about whether she should return to Ai. Xerath is recruiting new recruits? Also, should he convince his sister Vereesa to join Winter City and help him?

In this case, maybe Luo Ning can also be tricked into staying? By the way, recruit some mages from Dalaran to form a mage group?

As for the Spartan heavy infantry, they were recently brought back to the Kingdom of Greece by Helen and her two brothers, and are currently expanding the territory of the Kingdom of Greece along the Mediterranean coast.

In other words, as he was building meritorious services for the Winter Kingdom, David considered allowing the Spartan Heavy Infantry to expand directly on the spot. As for the extent to which it could be expanded, it would depend on Helen and her two brothers Pollux and Castor. Alright.

 As for the Winter Air Force and Winter Navy.

At present, the Air Force has recruited many "veteran pilots" from immigrants from the Matrix world. It is undergoing various training and screening to see how many are left before deciding how many pilots to recruit in the second batch.

As for the Navy, there is currently no choice. Basically, all those recruited will be able to board ships in the future. The situation will be similar for a long time. Survival of the fittest and the like will probably not be implemented within ten years.

After meeting them all, the last ones summoned were Van Cleef, Natasha and Ethan. These three heads and deputies of the intelligence department should be the ones who will work the hardest in the next period of time.

In addition to continuing to train intelligence personnel, they are responsible for investigating the intelligence of the Sodurummar Empire, the New Ellan Federation, the Orcs, and the Evernight Empire.

 Laid the foundation for the Winter Kingdom to pacify the entire Brunnia a few years later.

Van Cleef and Black Widow Romanoff naturally had no objections, but Ethan was the only one who looked embarrassed.

His job in Winter City is only a part-time job, and he has become one of the top executives of Winter City in a daze. It always feels weird.

Coupled with the fact that David did not hide his intention to attack other worlds, Ethan felt that he had unknowingly become the leader. Will his own world become the target of Winter City sooner or later?

David saw Ethan’s thoughts and reassured him: “I will not do anything to a ‘stable’ world.”

Winter City’s goals are mainly worlds that need to be ‘saved’ like The Matrix and Red Alert, which makes Ethan secretly relieved.
