Age of Mysticism Chapter 331

  Chapter 331 Appreciation from the Queen

  At this time, the eldest prince Fania was like a crazy fighting cock. He stood up and glared at Queen Christina, without any regard for the current occasion and the identities of the two parties.

  The news from the western region greatly stimulated Fania.

  The nobles of the Western Territory offered their letters of loyalty. Although the second prince, Alec, did not get the first credit, after all, he supervised the strategy of the Western Territory, and he will definitely take a considerable part of the credit.

  In contrast, the southern line and the northern border.

  The battle against the Tedgar Hills on the southern front is still stalemate. General Joshua launched a second round of offensive against the Barbarian Legion, but still encountered complete resistance and failed to achieve a good record.

  The northern border keeps sending alarms every day, and the border of the United Chen Bing in Yate County may invade at any time. The northern defenders are not optimistic about the war game. There are too many recruits and there is a shortage of supplies.

  The two powerful enemies are pressing on Fania's head, and it is not an easy task to make enough achievements in battle.

   Now that there is no pressure on the western region, Alec and the Western Region Legion formed by him have become an army that can be mobilized. No matter whether he went north, south, or came to the imperial capital, Fania always felt like a thorn in his back.

   And at this time when people were most anxious to get angry, there were rumors in the court that "His Majesty has passed away, and the Queen will keep her funeral secret". How can we not let Fania hurry up and even try to break into the emperor's palace.

  He has fought for the throne for half his life, and at this critical moment, he must not let the throne slip past his eyes!

   Facing the runaway eldest prince, no one spoke at the meeting. What Fania asked was what everyone wanted to know, but no one except Fania dared to ask.

  Outside the protective cover, the palace guards noticed that the eldest prince was endangering the empress, so they put their hands on the hilt of the sword together, and took a step forward with their right feet to protect the empress at any time.

  Queen Christina's expression did not change because of Fania's persecution.

   "Letting me handle government affairs on your behalf is an order from His Majesty to the cabinet here. What do you want me to explain?

   Your Majesty rests and does not want to see anyone other than me. This is also an order His Majesty gave to the servants in the palace before resting. What do you want me to explain?

  Fania, you are just a prince, not a crown prince! And I am the queen of the Golden Shield Empire!

  伱 What kind of attitude are you talking to me! "

   "You must be using magic..."

When Fania was about to accuse Empress Christina, Agatha stopped her: "Brother, please pay attention to your identity and the current occasion. Regarding the health of the emperor, my family can close the door." Get up and talk slowly.

  Here is the imperial cabinet meeting. The queen mother represents our monarch. You should give her due respect and let the meeting return to its proper agenda. "

  Fania looked at the people on the conference table, all eyes dodged, apparently they did not want to participate in the siege of the queen.

  Even meteorites…

  Fania saw the wink from Meteor and the gesture of calming down the matter.

The helpless Fania could only use the **** to get off the donkey, and said angrily: "Agatha is right, this is our family matter and should not be discussed at the cabinet meeting. I will definitely clarify the matter when the meeting is over!" "

  Fania put down her harsh words and sat back in her seat, but her breath was still hard to calm down.

  The palace guards also lowered their guard.

  The meeting room became quiet.

   "Where did you just say?" Queen Christina didn't look at Nia, she thought for a while and said to Luke: "Yes, Governor Meteor, we are all looking forward to how you create another legend in the Western Region."

  After a turmoil, the meeting continued, and Luke picked out and talked about the various measures he had arranged in the Western Territory.

   "To disintegrate the exploitation system of the western aristocrats on the western barbarians, open up the trade channel between the empire and the western region, and the Moonlight Royal Court threatens the survival of the western territory, and the western aristocrats can only move closer to the empire.

  The railway became the lifeline of the nobles in the western region, and also the main artery through which the empire influenced the western region. "

"It's really wonderful!" Queen Christina couldn't help applauding after listening to Luke's narration: "The problems that plagued the emperors of the empire have been solved so easily by you. The empire has a young minister like you. Fortunately for the Empire.

  I also heard that you are the chief minister appointed by Her Majesty the Queen of the Moonlight Court, responsible for all external affairs of the Moonlight Court? "

  Everyone in the cabinet meeting looked at Luke.

  Compared with the aristocrats of the Western Region, the revival of the World Tree and the establishment of the Moonlight Royal Court have greater long-term influence, and they are events that can cause a sensation in the world.

   How to formulate a strategy for the relationship with the Moonlight Royal Court is a matter of concern to all the ministers of the imperial cabinet.

  Meeting Xing, as the governor of Raging Waves City, also serves as the first assistant of the Moonlight Royal Court, his identity and status have become more subtle.

  Luke replied: "Spirit Clear Sky comes from the grasslands of the ancestors. It is a fierce war song to protect the remains of the World Tree for generations. She left the West to travel in order to find a way to revive the World Tree.

  This time the World Tree revived, Clear Sky inherited the power of the previous generation World Tree, which was completely unexpected to me.

  Everyone knows that Qingkong is a scholar and has little interest in managing the country. She even returned to the imperial capital soon to continue managing the St. Lun City Branch of Oulu College.

  She appointed me as the chief minister of the Queen of the Moonlight Court just to shirk responsibility.

   World Tree only pays without asking, and the queen is obsessed with academic research, so the Moonlight Court is not aggressive and can coexist peacefully with the empire. "

   Most of the people at the meeting heard the news that Qingkong was coming to Saint Lun City for the first time. And she let the queen not do it, but she still wants to continue teaching. Could it be that the supreme power is something she dismisses?

  Queen Christina was obviously also shocked by the news.

"Her Majesty is really admirable! I also like reading books very much, but the state affairs imposed on me these days have made me read a lot less. I am looking forward to the moment of meeting Her Majesty. I think we are sure academically. There is a lot of common language.

   But now, I must fulfill the duties assigned to me by His Majesty, and manage the empire well while he is recuperating.

  Since the Moonlight Royal Court has a good relationship with the empire, and the nobles of the western region have joined the empire, there is no need for the empire to maintain a large army in the western region. I heard that the West Territory Legion organized by Prince Alec has a good combat effectiveness...

  Governor Meteorite, do you think we should send the Western Territory Legion to support the Southern Front War, or transfer to the Northern Territory to resist the upcoming invasion of the Art County United? "

  Queen Christina's question immediately brought the meeting into an unusually weird atmosphere.

  Luke also wondered how Christina could ask himself such a question.

  I'm just the Governor of Raging Waves City!

  You asked about the situation in the eastern sea area and the civil war in the Kingdom of Leo, I can still talk about it, but this kind of thing...

  Shouldn't you ask Gabriel, the chief assistant first?

   Sure enough, the first assistant Gabriel looked very bad at this time. Even though Queen Christina's question was difficult to answer, she skipped herself to ask Meteor, who was not even a cabinet minister, and she was simply humiliating herself in front of everyone in the conference room.

   And what is the meaning behind this question?

   Could it be that the queen wants to push Meteor into the cabinet!

  Although Gabriel knew that according to the current momentum of Meteor, he would definitely enter the cabinet in the future, and then quickly be promoted to the chief assistant of the cabinet. But he didn't expect this day to come so soon, and the big wave that came up was going to shoot himself directly on the beach!

   Is this the meaning of His Majesty, or is it the queen's own claim?

  Gabriel couldn't figure it out, and he didn't dare to show his head to overwhelm the meteor's light when the meteor came back with a big victory in the western region.

   Gabriel quickly stabilized his emotions and hinted that other cabinet ministers should not stand out.

  Everyone was waiting for Meteor's answer, and Fania kept winking at Meteor.

   At this point Luke has a headache.

  I finally escaped from the court struggle, and ran back to Raging Waves City thinking about finishing my duty report. Who would have thought that when he was about to pat his **** and leave, he would be pushed and dragged into the game by Christina.

  Thinking about the beginning of the meeting until now, except for Fania who was in the limelight at the very beginning, the rest of the time was driven by Christina to focus the meeting on herself.

  Could it be...one emperor and one courtier.

  Christina's move is to win me over, and prepare to quickly disband Gabriel's cabinet when necessary, and I will form a cabinet to support her in proclaiming emperor!

  Luke looked at Queen Christina, her blue eyes were extremely charming, as if she was telling her admiration for herself.

   "I don't think it's appropriate for the Western Territory Legion to go to the northern border or the southern front now."

  Queen Christina ignored all the cabinet officials at this time, only Luke in her eyes: "Why?"

  Since the lecture started, Luxor boldly spoke up.

  "The Southern Front War has always been in charge of General Joshul. Although the Tedgar Hills have not yet achieved a decisive victory, the imperial army has maintained an offensive and continued to put pressure on the Celtic Duke.

  If Prince Alec leads the Western Territory Legion to support the southern front, there will be a dilemma about whom the army should listen to. Once they have differences in command, they are very likely to be seized by the barbarian army.

   As for the North...

  The northern border will soon enter winter, and the steam mechanical technology that Art County United is good at can give full play to its great advantages. Facing large-scale steam fortresses on the open and frozen soil, the empire can only rely on fortresses and a small number of mobile steam fortresses for defense.

  In order to adapt to desert operations, the Western Region Legion pays more attention to the use of cavalry. In the defensive battle of the northern border in winter, it is difficult for cavalry to play a role, and there will be a large loss of personnel due to frostbite. "

  Queen Christina nodded and said: "My knowledge of the military is very limited, thank you Governor Meteor for your guidance.

  It's just that Alec's Western Territory Legion is placed in the Crescent Oasis, which is too wasteful. It's better to transfer the Western Territory Legion to the vicinity of the imperial capital, as the general reserve force for war, for reequipment and adaptation training. "

Luke vetoed it: "The Legion of the Western Region is a frontier army. If it is transferred to the imperial capital during the war, it will definitely cause panic. Moreover, the Legion of the Western Region has just completed its reorganization, and its military discipline still retains the characteristics of the Western Region. The soldiers inside will definitely appear when they see the wealth of the imperial capital. looting.

  If Her Majesty the Queen doesn't want the Western Territory Legion to waste the empire's supplies and have nothing to do, you can order the Western Territory Legion to reduce its size. "

  Queen Christina asked very interestedly: "Talk about your thoughts."

"If the empire wants the long-term stability of the western region, it needs to develop the western region, and the development of the western region requires a lot of labor. Because the western region legion has to guard against the nobles of the western region, the entire legion system is actually very bloated, with a large number of camel teams and logistics personnel filling it. very backward.

  I think the Western Territory Legion can downsize and streamline its personnel, reorganize soldiers who are not suitable for combat into a construction corps, and invest in the construction of western border railways and roads.

  The remaining elites were reorganized into a rapid multi-purpose response corps, and at the same time, a large military training and exercise base was built in the Crescent Oasis. After systematic training and supplemented with special weapons and equipment, the new Western Legion can quickly arrive and fight quickly no matter which direction they need support. "

  Christina loved Luke even more.

  She raised this question to give Luke a chance to perform and pave the way for him to be promoted to the cabinet. Because how to deal with the Western Territory Legion is a big problem for the court. Everyone knew that at this time, it was not appropriate for the Western Territory Legion to go anywhere, but they needed to find a suitable reason for the Western Territory Legion to stay where they were.

  Meteor's answer perfectly explained why the Western Territory Legion can't go anywhere now, and gave a reasonable and proper solution to stay where they are.

   And this solution is so novel and convincing.

  Queen Christina is even more determined to win over Meteor, kick out Gabriel and those old guys, and renew a vigorous and enterprising cabinet.

  These old people in the palace are all like Augustine... old, confused, know nothing but infighting, and cling to power tightly.

   Time to make way for young people!

   "The idea of ​​streamlining the Western Territory Legion is very good! Gabriel..."

  Hearing the queen calling him, Gabriel immediately cheered up and replied: "Your Highness, what is your order?"

   "The cabinet has formulated a reorganization plan for the new Western Territory Corps and the Western Territory Construction Corps. The next cabinet meeting will be handed over to me. Start the construction of the Western Territory Railway as soon as possible, and build a large training and exercise base in the New Moon Oasis by the way.

  Ordered the military staff to communicate with Prince Alec to let him understand that streamlining the Western Legion will not weaken the combat effectiveness of the New Western Legion, but can increase it substantially.

  The Military Engineering Department cooperates with the dressing and training of the New West Frontier Corps. "

  Gabriel replied respectfully: "Of order, Your Highness the Queen!"

Christina then asked Luke again: "The empire on the southern front is on the offensive, and General Joshua's military ability reassures me. But facing the United of Art County in the north, the empire is at a very disadvantaged position, and there is no one The General who put me at ease commands the newly replenished Army of the North.

  Do you have any suitable candidates? "

  Luke complained in his heart...Why do you ask me this?

   Such a big empire, can't pick a general who can defend the northern border!

  Looking at those cabinet ministers again, their eyes are as sharp as steel swords, and they want to pierce the governor's heart with ten thousand swords.

   "The Northern War is a fortress defense battle. I think that for the recruits who are added to the Northern Legion, what they need most is a commander who can improve morale, and then this commander needs to have a good understanding of northern warfare.

   Candidates... I propose His Royal Highness, Grandson Sinclair. "
