The episode "Assassination" did not change the fate of the Kingdom of Layton. In the end, it was still attacked by the Thracian army, and it was still relying on the joint mediation of the four major golden shamans of the grasslands to escape the fate of perdition, or to descend from the kingdom to It became a principality, and officially became the main country of Thrace, becoming a country under the United Kingdom of Thrace and Leyton.

However, the fate of the Layton Kingdom has also changed. Unlike history, not only the four shamans came to mediate this time, but also the dwarf king and dragon lord who came in a hurry. These two strong men are not like the four great shamans. Manso is a neutral party, but Layton's side, so under their fight, the prince of the Duchy of Layton—perhaps he should be called "Young Master"? ——Not married to Richard Thrace's sister, but to Druid Merlin, a student of the dragon lord Rhodes.

This of course made King Richard very dissatisfied, but in the face of the dwarf king and the dragon lord who were resolutely unwilling to give in, he could only give up the plan of marriage.

It is true that the strength of the Frozen Juggernaut is higher than that of the Dwarf King and the Dragon Lord, but if the two powerhouses join forces, the Juggernaut may not have a ten percent chance of winning. More importantly, if these three masters who are already considered to be the highest level of martial power in the world fight, when they are full of firepower, apart from the four shamans, the rest of the mortals will be helpless. Survive the aftermath of their battle.

Among these "mortals" were King Layton, the prince, and Richard himself.

Faced with the two powerhouses who would rather fight than compromise, Richard had to give in and changed his original plan to use marriage to annex the Kingdom of Layton.

For this reason, the Kingdom of Layton had to cede an additional city and two mines, but for King Layton - oh, now it should be called the Grand Duke of Layton - it is completely worth it.

After all... the story of the riot in Thrace City not long ago has already reached the ears of the high-level officials of various countries. Faced with a king who could kill his entire family of knights for millions of gold coins, King Layton thought with his nose, knowing what would happen to marrying him.

I am afraid that the day when the marriage is completed will be the day of his own death. Then when the child is born, the other heirs of the Layton family will live to the end - others may not be so cruel, but Richard is definitely possible!

Although it is only "maybe", how could the Grand Duke of Leighton put the whole family's life on "maybe"?

So even if he had to lose more territory and mines, he firmly refused the marriage.

In fact, it was precisely because of Richard's ruthlessness that he did not hesitate to use up the favors accumulated by his family's ancestors and begged the dwarf king and the dragon lord to arrive as soon as possible, so as not to encounter an accident.

At that time, he thought that Richard might directly kill himself by taking the opportunity of negotiation, but he didn't expect Richard's idea to be even more vicious, and to swallow the entire Layton family together with the belt and bones...

These things are naturally unknown to outsiders. Even if Volibear hypnotized a maid of Layton Palace with shaman spells, he could only know what happened during the negotiation, and it was impossible to know what King Layton was thinking.

Of course, the traversers don't need to know what the old man who has been downgraded to the Grand Duke is thinking - the main line of this world has nothing to do with him, although he can live for many more years, until the Ice Dragon Rebellion Not long ago, but as an actor who left the stage on the big stage of "The World", what he thought and what he did was irrelevant.

In the future where there will be big dramas, he is not even a supporting role.

At present, the most important job for the traversers is to promote the infrastructure construction of the Tara Khan collar and enhance their hard power.

To fight against Thrace, who would sooner or later set off a war in the entire Western Continent, required a strong force. In theory, it is most reliable for traversers to work hard to level up, but when they reach level 30, the speed of gaining experience is greatly reduced - there are not so many advanced tasks in this world, and those difficulties alone are not enough. High tasks, even after three or four years, they are afraid that no one will be able to advance to level 50.

According to this trend, it is really difficult to rely on the power of the traversers to fight against Thrace. And cooperating with Thrace... From what happened to the Edward family, you can see that this idea is not an ordinary stupidity, but a stupidity of the mentally retarded level.

That being the case, there is only one way left.

On the one hand, he tried to delay Thrace as much as possible, and on the other hand, he tried to strengthen Tara Khan's strength so that he could have enough strength to protect himself.

After all, Tara Khan is only the northern border territory of the Kingdom of Terrera. According to normal development, the main battlefields of Thrace and Terrera are in the western part of the kingdom, and the area bordering the Kingdom of Terrera and the Molai Commercial Federation. Both routes of the offensive will pass through here, and only the army of one surprise attack will leave from Tarakhan.

In other words, what everyone has to do is to strengthen the strength of the Tara Khan leader and ensure that the Thracian raiding army can be defeated at that time.

...Assuming that Thrace sees the prosperity of the Tara Khan leadership, it will still send troops to attack.

To this end, the traversers need to do two aspects. The first aspect is to improve the people's livelihood in the Tarakhan Territory to promote the population increase; the second aspect is to train the elite troops to prepare for war.

The difficulty of the two aspects of work is different. The second aspect is relatively easy. The traversers do not plan to train too many troops - their understanding of the military is very unified, and the essence is not much more expensive. Xiang Yu could defeat Liu Bang's army of hundreds of thousands with only a few tens of thousands of people, and Chen Qingzhi's 7,000 men could conquer the northern expedition. Liu Bei fought a lifetime of battles. In fact, when a huge army fights, it loses more than it wins. It is really the skill of "commanding a super-large army".

So they decided to train only 1,000 men, 300 cavalry and 700 infantry.

The army of 1,000 people is really not large. There are two instructors, Sean (Li Xiao) and Harry (James), as well as those who also have military backgrounds such as urban management and police assistants. As well as the original military talents of Tara Khan, it is enough to train this army.

In contrast, the real problem actually lies in people's livelihood.

How to promote the infrastructure construction of the Tara Khan, improve the living standard and happiness index of the Tara Khan people, generate centripetal force and cohesion, and even build the spiritual civilization of Tara Khan... This is really an extremely difficult thing.

In this work, even if there are more people, it is not enough.
