"My lord, why is it called the Imperial Defence Force?" Franzka couldn't help but ask.

This huge army belongs entirely to Ren's personal armed forces. Whether it is weapons and equipment, or military salaries, training bases, and supplies, all of them are provided by Ren. Although he is the consul of the empire, this army has nothing to do with the empire.

"Ha ha……"

Ren smiled meaningfully, his chief maid was very smart, and he guessed something just from the name of the army.

But he didn't want to make it clear now, and smiled: "It's just a tentative name, and it won't be used now."

Franciaska nodded, and stopped asking questions wisely.

Ren added: "In the name of the 'Duke Guard', I will recruit troops in the three places of Osman Province, Gotham City and the Principality of Augustus, and build three brand-new military camps at the same time. Gotham City is made up of You are responsible, choose a key location far away from the city, and build a barracks within a month."

"Yes, my lord..."

Frankaska accepted the task with a serious face.

"I will send a group of Lei Zhutian soldiers to help you." Ren continued: "After the barracks is completed, the recruitment will begin immediately. Any male between the age of eighteen and twenty-five can sign up. In principle, We only need ordinary people with potential, and after screening, we will cultivate them into extraordinary people."

The chief maid is a little puzzled. It is very difficult for ordinary people to become extraordinary. Once they fail, all the resources invested before will be wasted.

Moreover, how does Rennes judge whether the person who signs up has potential?

How to cultivate?

Ren saw her doubts and smiled in his heart. This is the powerful effect of the Eye of the Soul and the Black Soul Potion. The proportion of extraordinary people among human beings is very low, less than one hundred, but in fact there are far more people with extraordinary talents, but there is no opportunity and resource to embark on the extraordinary road.

Even if these ordinary people become extraordinary, it is impossible for them to reach the legendary level in their lifetime, and they can only be promoted to the middle level at most, but it is enough.

The Imperial Guard doesn't need everyone to be a legend, and it can't be.

The Eye of the Soul can select the most talented group of people from ordinary people, use the black soul medicine for them, and supplement them with the best soul transformation ritual materials, so that the probability of becoming an extraordinary person increases sharply.

In this regard, he has a wealth of experience, and this is how the Knights of the Holy Lance was established.

Now only to scale up.

"Sir, there will definitely be a lot of extraordinary people signing up, don't you think about them at all?" Franzka suggested, "This can save a lot of investment, and the formation of the army will be faster."

"don't want."

Ren refused without hesitation.

He has long thought about this issue, and people who are already extraordinary are definitely not as loyal as the extraordinary who he cultivated.

The stronger the strength, the more difficult it is to manage.

What I want is a modern professional army that absolutely obeys orders. The whole army is like an efficient machine, and loyalty in spirit and will is far more important than personal strength.

Even if more funds have to be paid for this, the construction of the army will be slower, and it will take a few years to form combat effectiveness, but it will be at all costs.

"This is a long-term army building plan, we don't have to rush it for a while, and money is not a problem." Ren explained, and then said: "The first batch of recruits is 15,000 people, and Gotham City will allocate 5,000 people. , but the size of the barracks should be built according to 100,000 people.”

"I see." Frankaska replied softly.

"If the recruitment goes well and the training is effective, you will need to expand by 5,000 people every quarter in the future. You have to make logistical preparations."

"There are only three extraordinary occupations in the Imperial Guard, Iron Guard, Ranger and Gunslinger."

"You send someone to contact Gotham City's Soul Hunting Team and the Demon Soul Farm. Buy as many demon souls as you want from these three professions. But you should also keep a low profile and try not to make any noise. If there are not enough demon souls, I dispatched a batch from the empire."

"There are also materials needed for the soul transformation ceremony, which can also be prepared in advance."

"Tomorrow, 500 Lei Zhutian soldiers will come to Gotham City to cooperate with you. They will also bring 10 million gold shields as start-up capital."

"Don't meddle in the training in the military camp, Lei Zhu Tianbing will be in charge."

"and also……"

Ren explained Francaska one by one, she listened carefully, took out a piece of paper and wrote it down. This army building plan is huge and complicated. There are too many things involved in recruitment, military camps, training, weapons and equipment, vehicle development, logistics, and the use of medicines.

What he told Franzka now was just the basic part of the plan, and it was already a huge amount of work.

And this is just one of the three barracks.

The Duchy of Ossian was handed over to the chief of Mercerio, who was only responsible for recruiting troops. The barracks were built on the plateau of Sain, not far from Kalanos. When the time came, people would be sent to the plateau.

For the conscription plan of the Principality of Augustus, Ren sent a clone last year to govern the Principality on his own behalf. Instead, he didn't have to worry about it. Just send 500 Lei Casting Heavenly Soldiers to the Principality, and they will naturally act. .

It would take at least forty days for the first batch of black soul mushrooms to mature and be made into black soul potions, and it would take some time to get them in about two months.

So there is no urgency in terms of time.

"Okay, that's all."

It took more than an hour for Ren to explain it clearly, and Franzka also memorized several pages.

She got up and went around behind Ren, and gently massaged his temples to relax. Although Ren was not tired at all, he did not refuse to be served by the beauties. He leaned his head back in a soft and elastic position, enjoying his face very much.

After massaging for a while, Ren couldn't hold back the fire. He grabbed Frankaska's catkin, pulled her into his arms and sat on his lap. A big hand had already reached the peak.

"Well……"

Franchiska put her hands on Ren's chest, her beautiful face flushed, hesitation flashed in the depths of her eyes, and her hands seemed to resist subconsciously.

Ren keenly noticed her abnormality, stopped immediately, and asked softly, "Is your body feeling unwell today?"

"No." Frankaska shook her head slightly.

"Then what happened?"

Ren was at a loss. Since that time in the garden hot spring, she has long been in her own shape, and her body and heart belong to her.

Francaska bit her red lips, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally whispered, "Sir, I seem to be pregnant."

As she spoke, she clearly felt that Ren's body was stagnant, and her expression was stunned.

"Really?" Ren asked.

"Um."

Frankaska nodded lightly, feeling very uneasy, not only worried that Ren might be unhappy, but also afraid that her pregnancy would affect her work.

Ren's gaze moved down, staring at her abdomen.

Normally, he would not use his all-seeing eyes to look around, especially the body secrets of the people around him, so he hadn't noticed the changes in Frankaska's body before. Looking at it now, I immediately noticed a difference in her lower abdomen, a life the size of a finger was taking shape.

That is a fetus, pregnant with the soul that is about to be born!

Judging from the time, it is almost a month old, and it is likely that the seeds were successfully planted in the garden hot spring.

Into the soul!

A smile appeared on Ren's face, and he was very happy that he finally had a second child.

In the past few years, he has worked day and night with his women, and has never taken safety measures, but whether it is Emily who has given birth to a son Rex, or Viola, Livlin and Aoi who have elf blood Lu, Oxilia and Athena, none of their stomachs moved.

Unexpectedly, just over a month after she ate Frankaska, she became pregnant!

This is obviously because her bloodline is close to human.

Although half of Frankaska is of mermaid blood, the mermaid race has a strong ability to reproduce and has no reproductive isolation from humans at all. The success rate of getting her pregnant is much higher than that of half-elves, elves, dragons and giants.

"it is good!"

Ren's face was full of joy, and he embraced the chief maid in his arms. "Next, you should pay more attention to rest and don't work too hard. You can let go of work matters properly..."

Seeing that Ren was not angry, Francaska finally fell to the ground in her heart.

With this child, her position around Ren was more stable, and her identity was completely different, but when she heard the latter words, she was a little anxious, and she sat up quickly and said, "Don't worry, my lord, pregnancy will not affect my work. "

Ren was stunned for a moment.

Immediately she understood that she was afraid that her power would become smaller, and once it was released, it would not be able to be taken back.

This is a typical sorceress style, a student taught by Dean Margarita.

The joy in Ren's heart was suddenly diluted, and he even suspected that this pregnancy was a premeditated plan by Franzka? But she just suspected that the eye of the soul showed that she had no dissent, the child in her belly was her own, and she faintly sensed a blood connection.

never mind.

He shook his head secretly inwardly, not wanting to delve further.

With his current status, this kind of thing is unavoidable. It is impossible for the person beside the pillow to not have their own thinking. As long as she doesn't affect the overall situation and harm her own interests, she doesn't know it.

Ren was like a mirror in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he nodded and said, "Then it's up to you, everything will remain the same, it's just hard work for you."

"It has always been my wish to have children for adults." Franzka snuggled into Ren's arms, her face full of happiness.

Ren hugged her tightly and nodded.

He thought about it for a while and said, "As the mother of the child, the status of the chief maid is a bit low, and it is not suitable."

Frankaska raised her head with anticipation in her eyes, and heard Ren say: "After the year, you will go to the Duchy of Osian with me, and I will draw out Tianchi Lake and the surrounding territories and confer the title to you. Be an earl."

A real title of earl, and the territory is the most valuable Tianchi Lake in the Duchy of Osian!

This is the pursuit that countless people dream of but out of reach.

In addition, the actual seal earl is eligible to enter the imperial parliament. As long as Ren reports it, it can generally be approved by the parliament.

"grown ups!"

Fragashka was grateful but also a little uneasy, "This is too precious. I'm afraid that someone in the empire will gossip and affect the prestige of adults."

"My dukedom, whoever you want to be canonized can be canonized." Ren waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "If anyone has an opinion, he can tell me face-to-face if he has the courage. You can just accept the canonization with confidence."

Franzka nodded slightly.

Ren and her warmed up with her in the study for a while, and then took her back to the bedroom to rest.

The next day, Franzka got up early as usual, and after commanding the servants of the Highland Fortress to serve Ren, began to handle Gotham City's government affairs. At noon, 500 Thundercasting Heavenly Soldiers carried 10 million gold shields to the highland fortress, and immediately started planning, choosing a location for the barracks, purchasing demon souls and materials, etc., everything was progressing in an orderly manner.

Ren was teleported to the Duchy of Osian, and told Moserio the task of conscription.

The Principality of Augustus also started simultaneously.

At night, he teleported to Kharanos, the city of machinery and steel that stayed awake all night and kept its furnace off for a moment.

The lord of Kharanos is Kostarkin, the king of the hills who was transferred from Gotham City to Sion Plateau last year. Compared with the pleasant climate of Gotham City, he prefers the cold and desolate but vibrant plateau, and the atmosphere of Kharanos makes him more accustomed to this appointment.

Ren gave Kostarkin a task at the main fortress of Kalanos to build a military camp that could accommodate a hundred thousand people.

Kostarkin was amazed, but he took command.

After explaining the matter, Ren was about to leave, but Kstarkin stopped him, with a solemn expression on his rough face, and said, "Ren, I have something important to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Ren sat down again.

"Half a month ago, King Magna's messenger arrived in Kalanos, and let me tell you a message." Kstarkin replied.

Having said that, Ren had probably guessed it.

Sure enough, Kstarkin said: "When Gotham City was established, Ren, you and the three dwarf kings agreed to increase the population of dwarves in Gotham City every five years. It will be there in more than a month. It's been five years, and this time, they hope to increase to 50,000 people."

"Can."

Ren agreed without much thought.

The population of Gotham City is increasing every day, and now it has more than 1.5 million people. The proportion of 50,000 dwarves is very low, and there is no trouble.

"Besides..." Kostarkin hesitated for a few seconds, as if he was a little hard to say.

Ren smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, we are loyal allies. You can directly convey what the three kings have to say."

"Your Majesty the three kings are ready to open up the new continent." Kstarkin said in one breath, "We hope you can support the development plan, you don't need much help, just borrow the teleportation array to send the dwarf army and supplies to the new continent~www .lightnovelpub.net~ After finishing speaking, he stared nervously at Ren's expression and cursed the three dwarf kings in his heart.

Following Renn's side all these years, Kerstarkin is very aware of Renn's ambitions, and the entire New World is regarded as a future pioneering territory. Now the dwarves intervene, not only damage Ren's interests, but also Ren's support .

Thorgreen, Dann * Iron Hand and Magna * Bronze Ring, the three dwarf kings are naturally aware of the stakes.

But they didn't dare to have a face-to-face interview with Ren, and pushed it to themselves.

In fact, Kstarkin has refused many times, but after thinking about it for a long time, for the overall development of the dwarves, he can only bite the bullet and make a request to Ren.

Unexpectedly, Ren was not angry at all.

Instead, he replied very readily: "No problem. You tell the three dwarf kings to make an appointment to come to Kharanos, and we will talk face to face."
