After inspecting several military camps in a row, Count Redmara was in a much better mood, because the training of these soldiers was indeed very effective, and they gradually became stronger with good nutrition and training.

　　According to the current situation, it only takes one year to initially have a good combat effectiveness. As long as two or three years of training, you can become a group of skilled veterans. It only takes a few battles to transform into an elite.

　　The Earl of Redmara decided that after a year, the empire’s finances would be better, and he would recruit another 10,000 soldiers to enrich its military strength.

After the incident of the Kingdom of Buckden, they once again truly felt the importance of the army. The economic situation of the empire was still very good. Although two-thirds of the west was ceded, the land in the west was not prosperous and it was difficult. How much revenue it brings.

　　 Although the northern border was independent, it did not cut off the trade between the two sides. Although the annuity was reduced a little, it was also helpless.

　　 What's more, the commercial roads in the south are already open, and in the past few months, merchants from the Kingdom of Bukerdern have also poured into the empire because of the exemption of tariffs. Although they do not pay tariffs, they have to pay some transaction taxes.

　　 In addition to the fact that they buy goods from individual merchants, the empire can also draw taxes from local merchants.

　　 When the empire was fighting horses and soldiers, the Kingdom of Bukerdern was also undergoing large-scale military reforms.

　　 King Satri led a army of 12,000 in the Western Territory in a posture that was supposed to be devastating. Even if he couldn't defeat the enemy cleanly, at least he shouldn't be beaten so badly.

　　 Although they were not defeated in the end, their appearance on the battlefield was that King Satri was disgraced, and King Satri did indeed feel uneasy through this time.

　　How could an army like this maintain its rule, and those mercenaries, who are simply the most unreliable group of people in the world, have to double their rewards before they are willing to perform their due duties.

　　 Therefore, King Sartri felt that there was still a lack of control in his own hands, and there should be more troops to maintain his rule.

　　The mercenaries didn't know that what they had done had completely angered King Satri, and wanted to expel them from the Kingdom of Bukerdern.

　　 was wandering around the major taverns, brothels, and casinos with the double reward he received from King Satril. Their spending splendidly spurred the economic development of the Kingdom of Bukerdern.

　　 As the capital of the Kingdom of Bukerdern, the city of Pimen is very prosperous, and the tailor shops and tailors in the city are extremely happy.

　　Because they received a large order, almost enough tailors all over the city to share a piece of the pie.

　　 Basically, there is no uniform uniform with the imperial soldiers. When they are not wearing armor, they only wear armed clothing. Unlike the heraldic robes when wearing armor, the Kingdom of Bukerdern is more prosperous and has a higher vision.

　　 The Redka Empire and even the entire Redka nation. They only pursue practicality and not beauty. It is enough to save their lives on the battlefield, and there is no need to spend a penny.

　　 Take the money saved by making military uniforms to buy spices and wine. Isn’t he fragrant? People with pitfalls will spend money on these flashy military uniforms.

　　 But as the saying goes, full of warm thoughts **, in the wealthy Bukerdern Kingdom, they pay attention to practicality while also paying attention to appearance.

　　 An ugly uniform may even affect morale.

　　 These tailors started to operate immediately after receiving the order. A full two thousand sets of military uniforms allowed everyone to get enough orders.

　　In the conference hall of the Royal Palace of Pimon City, the vassals of the Kingdom of Bukerdern are gathering here to discuss the next issue of the reform of the army with King Satri.

　　 "Your Majesty, is it really necessary to expand the army like this? This is too heavy for us. There are so many mercenaries in the kingdom. If there is a war, only need to hire them?"

　　 Although the behavior of this group of mercenaries on the battlefield is clearly seen by everyone, there are still some people who are unwilling to spend too much money to support the army.

　　 This is not a small amount of money, military expenses, food, training, and weapons and equipment. This is where money needs to be washed.

　　 Standing army and mercenary are completely two concepts in terms of phone bills. It may not be useful to provide regular army for one or two years. It is not worth it for some lords to provide for a group of free-for-money soldiers for three years.

　　 On the contrary, although mercenaries are not so easy to use sometimes, they spend a lot less money.

　　 This group of lords who love enjoyment and desperate extravagance would rather spend money for pleasure than use it to expand their army.

　　 This is the essential difference between the lord of the Kingdom of Buckden and the lord of Redka. Even if the lord of the empire has money, the first thing to do is definitely not pleasure.

　　 Instead, he expanded the army at the first time, so that he had a strong military strength, and then strengthened the construction of the castle, striving to leave a castle that can be passed on for hundreds of years to future generations.

　　 At the end, if there is money left, it is the turn of these lords to start having fun.

　　 Maybe they will spend some money to reward themselves, but the bulk of the expenditure is definitely on the army.

　　 Perhaps the peace of the past ten years has slightly wiped out the ambitions of lords everywhere, but the idea of ​​being prepared for danger in times of peace will not disappear.

　　 The Kingdom of Bukerdern has been prosperous for hundreds of years, and the folk customs of martial arts have long been eroded by the soft red.

　　 Therefore, ~lightnovelpub.net~ many lords are unwilling to spend money to form more troops when they are not facing the crisis of life and death. It is enough to have a ticket of thugs to help them dominate.

　　 What's more, although King Satri was the ruler of the Kingdom of Bukerdern, the number of troops under his command was entirely the private affair of the lords. It must be said that King Satri had no right to force interference.

　　 "We must expand our army. You have seen the virtues of that gang of mercenaries on the battlefield. They are not reliable at all. In the end, we must rely on our loyal warriors!"

"Even the regular army under our respective command is totally unqualified. You have all seen the soldiers of the empire. Now the empire has weakened and become that way, but his army is still so strong. This is something we don’t have. of!"

"If someone hits our territory, do we have to rely on those mercenaries to fight? I am afraid that at that time, the mercenaries are more willing to help our enemies to break our castle! It is a group of hyenas that are no different from each other. Despicable people, they have no sense of honor!"

　　 "We have tremendous wealth. All people covet our gold coins. Such an army cannot guarantee that our property and territory will not be violated. Therefore, we must expand our army to protect our property!"

"Even when our strength is strong, we can use our invincible army to force countries to sign trade agreements with us, just like the empire, exempting us from tariffs, think about what kind of benefits it is! The interests of each other do not depend on trade!"
