The aroma of birds, ignited from the black pottery censer, has a special breath, which seems to seduce the mind. After one portion of agarwood was burned, Naxiu added another portion of divine smoke. And the young king next to the censer put down a roll of pictures, and then opened another roll.

"Your Highness, the monkey Kuluka reports to you... In Hekou County, this year's autumn harvest is neither good nor bad. It is an average year! According to the grain harvested by the villages, the priests estimated that the population of the county is, There are about 250,000 people, four dings for every ten people. There are at least 2 million mu of cultivated land... The specific figure may be too much, or it may be too little. But the villages are all in our hands. There will be no shortage of grain tribute. By the way, there is enough grain after the autumn harvest, and it can support a batch of Qingqiu County in the North..."

Seeing this simple and accurate report, Xiulot smiled, feeling a little relieved. Then, he settled down and carefully

"After the autumn harvest, the fifteen dog-born flag teams, oh yes, plus the one newly received in the north at the beginning of the year, now there are sixteen teams in total... They are all clamoring and want to go to the Chapala Lake area to plunder again. They planted The land was in a mess, and when I saw the trophies brought back by the Guajili Army, my eyes were red, and my mind was full of fighting and fighting..."

"In the north this year, there seems to be signs of a white plague. The wasteland tribes are still going south, and the Guamal dog descendants have also organized. They have tasted the sweetness and made an appointment with us to send troops together to plunder the feathered Chapala Lake area. I promised... After the new year, Hekou County will send out 4,000 spear warriors and 8,000 dog-born fighters to go west along the Leman River. The Guamal people will send 20,000 tribal fighters to go south from the plateau. Well, they It also absorbed a lot of wilderness tribes, and their strength has increased a lot, but they are short of food...

"Your Highness, we will attack on both sides and pluck all the 'feathers'. Then, the young and strong men and women they capture will still be traded with the kingdom. According to the old rules, 50% will be exchanged for food, 20% will be exchanged for cotton cloth, and then weapons, salt 10% of gems and gems...Well, generally speaking, the price is very cheap. Get people back, serve as serfs for samurai, or arrange villages, and it only takes two or three years to get back the money..."

After reading it briefly, Xiulot nodded secretly. The Kingdom of the Lake is more than a thousand miles away, and it takes more than 20 days for the message to be transmitted. He has delegated power to the confidants of the counties, and the military and government are integrated, allowing them to make their own decisions. These documents are just reports from the county magistrates. If there is no extremely special event, he generally will not interfere remotely.

"Hekou County, with a population of 260,000, ten people and four families, and 2 million mu of land, is about to go west to plunder... Well, the monkeys are doing well!"

Xiulot picked up a pen and took notes carefully. The fields here are all cultivated fields, and the fallow area is not counted. Generally speaking, the fallow field will be 1-1.5 times that of the real cultivated field... Soon, Schlott opened the next letter, which was a report from Jaguar Olosh.

"Your Highness, as of the autumn harvest, the population of Gyeonggi is 450,000, and the fields are about 4 million mu. The 70,000 Mexica youths promised by the high priest have all arrived a few months ago. Among them, Gyeonggi has resettled 50,000 people and obeyed By your will, let them intermarry with the Prepeca..."

"After several years of rest and recuperation, the royal capital Qincongcan has become quite prosperous, close to the scale of ten years ago. Around the Patzcuaro Lake area, this year's harvest is good, and towns and villages around the country have accumulated a lot of surplus food. The newborn children, too. There are a lot more. The missionary priests estimated that each Mintun village has about ten people and three Ding."

"The Gyeonggi Legion has been stationed in the Patzcuaro Lake District and has not fought for three or four years. The warriors have not made military exploits for a long time, and they all complain when they see other legions have been fighting and making meritorious deeds. The officers asked me to write to you: Gyeonggi Legion , are the most loyal wings of the condor! No matter who the enemy is, they will fight for the king and die for the king...So, respected king, when will the wings be able to go out?..."

Seeing this, Xiulot laughed dumbfounded. Olosh expressed his desire to fight, both openly and secretly. And the Gyeonggi Legion guarding the capital has indeed stayed for too long, eager to fight. You know, without fighting, there would be no military merits, no promotion to titles, no income from plundering, and no granting land or slaves...

"Haha! Gyeonggi County has a population of 450,000, ten people and three Dings, and 4 million mu of land. The warriors are eager to fight..."

Shulot was writing and meditating. After several years of recuperation, the Patzcuaro Lake District finally slowly regained its vitality. The Gyeonggi Army Corps garrisoned the capital and suppressed the north and the south. Although the legion wants to go out, but according to the current situation, it is still not appropriate to move lightly.

What's more, the Mexica warriors in the Gyeonggi Army have all participated in the battle of the Western Expedition to destroy the country. Most of them have reached the threshold of fourth-level senior warriors, or first-level military nobles. If you make more achievements in battle and get promoted to a higher level, the number of fields and serfs that need to be enfeoffed...

Thinking of this, Shulot's smile stiffened, and he immediately wrote a reply to Olosh.

"...My dear teacher, marshal and regiment commander. The warriors in Gyeonggi have fought with me for many years, and now they have allotted land, granted fields, and have groups of slaves and wives. It is time for these years of fighting to come Let them enjoy themselves! Well, they are stationed in Gyeonggi and intermarried with the Prepecha people. As long as they have more children, the situation in the kingdom can be stabilized..."

Next, is the veteran Etalik, a family warrior from the Holy City.

"Your Highness, when I heard the news of the High Priest, I felt very sad. I wish I could exchange my life for that of the High Priest!...Your Highness, from now on, you will be part of the Holy City Department. The highest Patriarch... Please take good care of yourself and don't take risks lightly. The elder and the high priest have passed away one after another, the capital in the lake is turbulent, and no one will suppress it..."

"As a warrior who has served the family for fifty years, I bow my head to the ground and boldly say to you: from now on, before inheriting the throne of the alliance, please do not set foot in the capital of the lake! A few months ago, the high priest gave A letter from me, let me forward it to you when the time is right. In fact, the remonstrance just now is also the meaning of the high priest's letter..."

"Huh? A letter from grandfather? Don't step into the capital in the lake?"

Seeing this, Shulot suddenly stood up, his eyes sparkling. He was eager to know what was said in his grandfather's letter, but the current situation...

"Hey! In terms of loyalty, the samurai who has served the family for generations is the most reliable. It is for this reason that I chose Elvy as the head of the Long Snake Army..."

A moment later, the distant memories were scattered in the fragrant smoke. Shulot suppressed the heat in his heart, subdued his inexplicable ups and downs, and looked down.

"Your Highness, as of the autumn harvest, the population of Zicao County is about 190,000, an increase of 80,000 over last year. Among them, 10,000 are the relocated Mexica young adults, and 70,000 are the newly resettled Tlaxcala tribe. ...the cultivated farmland in Zicao County is 1 million mu. Most of the immigrants arrived too late and missed the time for spring plowing. I have sent priests and warriors to organize them to build canals and build barns and thatched huts in Mintun , ready for next year's spring plowing."

"This year's rainy season has a lot of precipitation. The water level of Atoyak Lake has risen, flooding some riverside farmland. The autumn harvest has reduced, but it is enough to support the newly resettled 80,000 young men and women, and provide them with food until next year's autumn harvest. ..”

Seeing this, Shulot paused. He knew that in the two southern counties, in order to resettle the 200,000 Tlaxcala immigrants, the food supply would be very tight. However, as long as these immigrants are digested and farming and production are successfully organized...by next autumn, the grain harvest in the two states will have explosive growth!

"Well, we have to mobilize some grain from the barn in Gyeonggi and supply it to the two counties in the south... The Huohe Plain has always been rich, so maybe we can trade a batch of grain with Chief Colima..."

After all the calculations, the kingdom's food supply has always been tight. The reason is that the population of the kingdom is expanding too fast, and the legions in the counties consume too much. However, as long as it can continue to plunder outwards and continue to receive blood transfusions from the alliance, the Kingdom of the Lake will grow stronger at an astonishingly fast rate!

"In general, Zicao County has a population of 190,000, four to five ten people, and 1 million acres of fields. The food shortage needs to last until next year's autumn harvest..."

The captives of Tlaxcala who migrated were mainly young and strong men and women. The proportion of Dingkou is naturally high, even five out of ten people. Similarly, there is Apa County in the southwest.

"My supreme sun, your servant, Ezpan salutes you! Your illustrious martial arts in the Eastern Expedition have already spread throughout the world, even to the mountains in the southwest! Even the chief of Colima sent congratulatory The obedient envoy, his other daughter... bowing her head and tail, swaying her figure, waiting for your mighty conquest at any time..."

Seeing this, Shulot raised his brows, and felt a little hot again. He took a deep breath, felt the refreshing smoke, and shook his head slightly. Then, with a solemn expression, he skipped unimportant praises and went straight to the main points.

"The sun shines on the Apa Plain. Because of your light, this year is a good year!...The newly reclaimed land is very fertile, and the harvest has exceeded expectations. The 10,000 new immigrants from Mexica have already been resettled. And The 90,000 Tlaxcalans who have moved in in recent months are building villages and huts."

"...In Apa County, there are already 210,000 people and more than 80 farming villages. The terrain here is open and the arable land is sufficient. A farming village has about 4,000 people, and it happens to accommodate a large banner team... If you When you come here, you will definitely be satisfied with the neatness of the village!...Thousands of tribal people are bathed in your light, ready to dedicate everything to you at any time..."

"This year's spring plowing, the cultivated land is more than 1 million mu. The food produced is sufficient, enough to supply the new immigrants. The Lord God witnesses! By next year's spring plowing, the number of acres of land reclaimed in the county will at least double!  … "

Seeing this, Xiuluo nodded, expressing satisfaction. But he knew that with Ezpan's character, there would definitely be some moisture in the report. With so many resettled immigrants in Apa County, it is necessary to supply rations and prepare to grow food, so food must be very tight.

"Apa County has a population of 210,000, four to five ten people, and 1 million mu of land. Food needs to be transferred..."

After writing this, Xiulot thought for a while, and then took out another scroll. He suppressed the hotness in his heart, held his temper, and spoke respectfully, and wrote a letter to the chief of Kolima to trade grain. It takes about three or four hundred miles to transport grain from the Huohe Plain to the Apa Plain, which is basically equivalent to the dispatch from the king's capital Qin Congcan.

"Well, I have read the reports of the four counties one by one. Qingqiu County has just been established, and the distance is too far, so there is no latest report yet."

"Northern land has always been barren. Even if the population of Qingqiu County annexed all the Otomi people in Palms State and accepted thousands of dog-descendant tribes going south, it barely reached 100,000. As for the cultivated fields, the area is estimated It is less than 800,000 mu, and the yield per mu is 20% lower than that in the south...The only advantage of the Northland is that the tribal army is abundant, and the recruitment is cheap, and the support is also cheap!"

Shulot thought about it for a long time, and took notes again.

"Qingqiu County has a population of 100,000, ten people and four Dings, and 800,000 mu of land. Beware of white disasters in the wasteland and accept the northern tribes..."

After a busy day, I finally finished looking through the documents of the five counties. Xiulot stood up and drank a cup of honey tea made by hand, feeling a surge of heat in his chest. Afterwards, he unfolded the map of the kingdom and stretched out his hand to outline it, with high spirits.

"Hekou County has a population of 260,000; Gyeonggi County has a population of 450,000; Zicao County has a population of 190,000; Apa County has a population of 210,000; Qingqiu County has a population of 100,000. Together, it is already a big country of 1.2 million people!"

"The vast majority of these 1.2 million people are under the control of the kingdom's military system! There are no traditional nobles who are constrained, no corrupt priest families... most of the old superstructures have been used by me for several years, Clean up one by one! Everything in the kingdom is vigorous and progressive!"

Xiulot paused, opened his arms, and stood upright. The pride of a king surged in his chest. And the taste of power is like the best aphrodisiac for a man, directly stimulating his blood vessels. At this moment, a stronger desire rose in his heart, from a corner of the west, to sweep across the alliance inside and outside~lightnovelpub.net~ to the whole world!

"Haha! My will will run through the whole kingdom! These 1.2 million people will cultivate, work and fight for me, and no one dares to disobey them! I will control them and roll forward , like..."

"Your Highness~..."

An emotional call suddenly sounded from the king's side, with a trembling charm, like the low moan of a white fox. His Highness turned his head to look, only to see Naxiu's low waist, plump white jade, and silky winking eyes, almost dripping water.

Shulot paused slightly, took a deep breath, and his eyes were instantly stained red. Then, with a ferocious expression, he suddenly stretched out his big hand, like a jaguar pouncing on food, picked up the jade man, and threw it on the map of the world with a "bang". Then, the young tiger leaned down, let out a deep throat, and let out a suppressed and carefree growl.

"Roar!...Rolling forward, connecting up and down, is the king's will! Just like this moment, painting in the world!"
