The King Chapter 327

   "Count, Archduke Effiero is here to visit."

   Hudson was also speechless when he received this big news just after a dragon-bear battle was quelled.

   Having dealt with the Grand Duke Effiero, it can be regarded as a bit of incense, but this friendship is obviously not enough to make the Minister of Military Affairs, who is busy with every day, come to visit him in person.

   You don't need to think about it, you know that the Grand Duke Afiero must be here for Maxim.

  Already knew that someone would be after his dragon, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. The war had just ended, and everyone was busy taking over the fief, so the Minister of Military Affairs came to the door, and this efficiency was also leveraged.

   But it's normal to think about it. Things like the dragon's estrus are full of uncertainties. If you don't communicate in advance, if you miss it, you don't know when the next time will be.

  Refer to the practice of the Frankish Kingdom. People always prepare the female beasts that need to be bred in advance, and wait for the dragon to go into heat.

  The nobles of the kingdom did not come to the door, probably because they did not have time to prepare the female beast. After all, although the dragon's genes are powerful, the female beast's genes are equally critical.

  The minimum requirement is to be a monster. Even if an ordinary beast is bred with a giant dragon, the potential of the sub-dragon beast born will not be high.

  Of course, it doesn't matter if the monster level is too high, not to mention that the probability of genetic mutation is too high, and the sub-dragon beast's fertility will also be limited, or even directly lose its fertility.

  In the final analysis, what everyone wants is an army of monsters that can be mass-produced, not a talented cub.

   It is the most basic thing for a female animal to be able to give birth. It is best to have one litter and one litter, and the growth cycle should not be too long.

  In addition to these restrictions, the attributes of Warcraft should also be considered. Maxim is a giant fire dragon, so it is undoubtedly the best choice to choose a fire monster to borrow.

   With so many restrictions, even the great nobles can't handle it for a while. After all, borrowing seeds is also full of uncertainties, and one or two female beasts cannot succeed.

   "Ask him to the living room, I'll be there right away!"

   Hudson ordered immediately.

  Representing the Kingdom's Minister of Military Affairs to visit in person, it must be taken seriously. The main thing is his Warcraft Legion, which will be there soon!

  With the ability of the Koslow family, God knows how much time it will take to find a suitable female animal to breed with Maxim.

  The rational Hudson would naturally not do such a waste of time and energy. With a kind of dragon in hand, you can wait for everyone to come to your door to discuss cooperation.

  There is no free lunch in the world, and there is a price to be paid if you want to borrow seeds. Collecting gold coins is too tacky, and it is easy to hurt feelings, it is better to share the results directly.

   Of course, this is limited to potential female beasts. After all, the Warcraft Legion has never been better with as many races as possible, and that would add a lot of intangible costs.

  The most economical way is to devote the power of the kingdom to cultivate one or two excellent war beasts, and build a monster army based on this.

   Judging from the successful cases, it is basically played like this. Although the Yalong beasts that everyone has cultivated are all kinds of strange, there are only one or two that can be used as mounts for the Warcraft Legion.

  This kind of thing also requires a certain amount of luck.

  For example: The Kingdom of Iberia has done it many times, but so far it has not produced a sub-dragon cavalry suitable for serving as an air force. It can only be replaced by giant eagle cavalry and griffin cavalry.

  Mainly due to the limitation of the dragon's estrus time, the first mating was unsuccessful, and the second mating did not know how long it would take.

  When the dragon knight's lifespan was exhausted, the giant dragon ran away directly, and the experiment had to be suspended. In the years of owning the dragon knight, no one can say for sure how many times he can experiment.

   "The tea is very good. It seems that the Earl is also a person who loves life!"

   Grand Duke Afiero said with a smile.

  For the aristocrats who eat meat as their staple food, tea, which is oily and greasy, has long been a necessity in life.

   But when it comes to tea tasting, Hudson is an amateur. This kind of drink from overseas is a proper luxury in the continent of Aslante. Only rich nobles are qualified to pick tea varieties.

  The pot of tea brewed in front of me was sent by Isabel, and the tea variety Hudson chose was completely unknown to him.

   It doesn't matter if you don't know, since the customer said it is good tea, it is really good tea. Anyway, this meeting is not for drinking tea.

   "Haha... That's natural. I didn't expect that Your Excellency is also a person who understands tea. If you like it, you might as well take some back with you!"

   Hudson said with a smile.

  Everything is so natural, as if he really understands tea.

   "Then thank you Earl for your kindness!

  This time I took the liberty to visit, in addition to reminiscing about the past, there is also a major event involving the future development of the kingdom, which needs to be discussed with Your Excellency! "

   Grand Duke Afiero said solemnly.

   From that serious expression, Hudson understood everything. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately asked cooperatively, "I don't know why the Grand Duke is here this time?"

  Politics is like that, you can't be too smart. The play that should be performed must go through the process.

   "Your Excellency, you personally commanded the troops to participate in this war, and you have a deep understanding of the military strength of the countries on the mainland.

  Especially their Warcraft Legion has shown impressive combat effectiveness. I wonder if Your Excellency the Earl has any ideas? "

   Archduke Afiero asked with concern.

   Regarding the vigorous development of the Warcraft Legion, there are actually differences within the Kingdom's military. Some people support it, while others are against it.

   Both sides have their own reasons, especially after Hudson proposed to build the magic crossbow and magic crystal cannon army, which pushed the controversy to a climax.

   Compared with monsters that may have accidents at any time, lifeless magic crossbows and magic crystal cannons are obviously much easier to control.

   Now within the Ministry of Military Affairs, an agreement is barely reached: vigorously promote the construction of the Warcraft Legion.

  If he wants to develop the Warcraft Legion well, he must first win the support of Hudson, otherwise the plan will not go ahead at all.

   "To tell you the truth, the Warcraft Legion of the major forces is indeed very powerful. In my opinion, once the problem of the cost of Warcraft is solved, the Warcraft Legion will definitely become the mainstream of the mainland army.

   It is said that the Tyrannosaurus Rex of the Frankish Kingdom, with the help of magic potions, only needed seven years from birth to battle.

  Pterosaurs were cultivated for a little longer, but not more than ten years.

  This growth time, although much higher than that of a war horse, is already acceptable. If the research continues, this time may be further shortened.

  If the cost is not considered, they already have the ability to cultivate monsters on a large scale.

  The progress of the other big forces is slightly slower, but the gap is not too big. Perhaps it will be a matter of decades before the popularity of the Warcraft Legion! "

   Hudson said worriedly.

  These messages are public in the coalition forces. As the commander-in-chief of the kingdom's army, Hudson naturally pays attention to the messages of his allies.

   As for the authenticity of the news, it is actually not that important. Since Grand Duke Affiero came to the door, it was obvious that the Kingdom wanted to develop the Warcraft Legion.

   "Your Majesty and Your Excellency the Earl share the same view, and both believe that the Warcraft Legion will be the mainstream of future wars.

   It is not only the human race that has conducted in-depth research in this area, but many races among other races have formed the Warcraft Legion.

  The one that has gone the farthest in this field is actually not the Frankish Kingdom, but the ancient elves. Compared with us humans, elves have the natural ability to get close to nature, and it is obviously easier to get close to Warcraft.

  Which step they have reached is still unknown for the time being. But what is certain is that the Franks are already preparing to form a large-scale Warcraft Legion.

  According to the information collected by the kingdom, Charles III had privately announced that he would form eight tyrannosaurus rex legions and five pterosaur legions within five years.

  The specific number of people in the establishment is unknown, but based on the cards of the first kingdom in the mainland, a legion they form must have at least a few thousand monster cavalry.

  The Vatican, the Kingdom of Iribia, the Black... and more than a dozen major family powers have similar plans.

  The remaining human race forces have also taken actions secretly, but the progress is not yet obvious.

  The kingdom is seriously behind in this respect. If you don't hurry up to catch up and wait for the major forces to complete this military reform, you will be in big trouble! "

  After listening to the words of Grand Duke Afiero, Hudson cursed shamelessly. Having said so many reasons, it is not for the purpose of growing dragons.

  Bringing Wang Guoyi to justice was nothing more than telling him in a subtle way: Don't try to cheat at such a time, it will cause public outrage.

   "Your Excellency, if the kingdom forms a monster army, I will definitely support it 100%.

   But the problem is that although I am also a magician, I don't know anything about cultivating Warcraft. Even if you want to contribute, you don't know how to start! "

   Hudson deliberately pretended to be confused.

   You don't have to knock the stick, but you still have to fight for the initiative. As Minister of Military Affairs, Archduke Efiero is still very busy and has no time to spend time with Hudson, so he immediately cut to the chase and said:

   "Your Excellency, you can definitely help me with this matter. Judging from the monster legions formed by the major forces at present, they are all dominated by sub-dragon beasts.

   Most of the seeds for cultivation and research come from giant dragons. As the fourth dragon knight in the mainland, the future of the kingdom rests on you. "

  Hearing this explanation, Hudson's face almost darkened. What does it mean to rely on him? Obviously, it depends on Maxim.

   It is the red dragon Maxim who wants to mate with the monster, not Earl Hudson.

   He hesitated for a while, but in the end he didn't open his mouth to refute. It was just a slip of the tongue, nothing to worry about.

   "Your Excellency, it is useless to persuade me, the key is to cooperate with the dragon.

  You know that the dragon's estrus is not regular at all. Although theoretically speaking, adult dragons can actively enter estrus, but such successful cases are too few.

   At least the other three dragon knights were unable to convince their own dragon to agree.

  As a newly promoted dragon knight, I know less about the habits of giant dragons. I am afraid that it will be quite difficult to persuade the red dragon to actively enter the estrus period! "

   Don't be afraid of "difficulties", but be afraid of not being able to do it. It doesn't matter if you cheat or buy it, Grand Duke Affiero doesn't care about the process as long as the red dragon contributes the seeds.

  The worst result is nothing more than waiting for the dragon to go into heat naturally. If it can be opened in advance, it is worth paying a certain price.

   "Your Excellency, if you have any difficulties, feel free to mention them. As long as the Kingdom can solve them, we will definitely help you!"

   Grand Duke Efiero rubbed his forehead helplessly and said.

  When he got involved with interests, he immediately felt a headache. But this kind of thing can't be refused, after all, it is too difficult to artificially control the dragon's estrus.

   It's not that no one has thought of drugging secretly, but the problem is that the dragon is not easy to fool! In case the goofing is discovered, it will be a major accident.

  The kingdom just wanted to borrow seeds from the dragon, but it wasn't going to make enemies with the dragon. What's more, Hudson, the dragon knight, would definitely not agree to such an immoral thing.

   "The Grand Duke is serious! It's not that I have difficulties, but that Mr. Maxim, the red dragon, has difficulties.

  You don't know how big the appetite of the dragon is, my pasture is almost running out. However, Maxim is very picky eater, he must have fresh cattle and sheep, and they must be raised by him.

  In order to solve this problem, most of the earldom's land has been turned into his pasture, but it is still not enough.

  The main reason is that the earldom is too scattered, the area where the lord's mansion is located is mountainous, and it is still dominated by mining areas, lacking suitable pastures.

  If the territory can be replaced and the scattered fiefs can be gathered together, this problem will be easily solved.

  Mr. Maxim is very affectionate, even if it is a borrowed seed, it is his descendant. The offspring born by the monster can't be taken away, but a little bit of thought must be left for him.

  If he wants to take away the offspring he doesn't like, it's okay, but sufficient compensation must be given. His Excellency the Grand Duke also knows about the giant dragon's hobbies! "

  Looking at Hudson's embarrassed expression, Grand Duke Afiero cursed shamelessly deep in his heart. He is obviously seeking benefits for himself, but he is using the banner of the giant dragon.

   It is true that giant dragons are greedy for money, but to let them sell their "seeds of life" for money would be too underestimating the arrogance of giant dragons.

   Compared with trading, the dragon obviously prefers to use grabs. For the giant dragon, problems that can be solved with fists have never been a problem.

   "Your Excellency, regarding the issue of fief replacement, I can only promise to persuade the king as much as possible. But the parliament will probably encounter trouble.

  Especially the group of northern nobles, they never cared about the overall situation of the kingdom, and often did ridiculous things.

   As for the other two troubles, as long as Mr. Maxim doesn't have a big appetite, there shouldn't be any major problems. "

   Inadvertently, Grand Duke Afiero hacked the nobles of the Northland again. Obviously, the royal family has already torn skins with these guys, and the suppression is too lazy to cover up.

  It is easy to act as the opposition in the noble council, but the resolution does not need unanimous support, and some opposition votes are also feasible.

   Except for the family that has a relationship with Hudson, everyone else is preparing to join the "borrowing" team. At this juncture, everyone will only choose "trading".

   "You don't need to worry too much, my Alpha Kingdom is not what those guys in the North have the final say on.

   What's more, today is different from the past, the internal disputes alone are enough for them to toss for several years, how can they have the energy to come and make trouble?

  The next biggest trouble is convincing Mr. Maxim. You must have heard about the arrogance of the giant dragon. If you want to persuade him to agree, it will take several months at the fastest, and you don't know how much trouble you will encounter during the period.

  During this period, the kingdom must first prepare the female beast. After all, we have no experience with dragons in heat. If the duration is too short and you miss the opportunity and want to come back again, you will be in big trouble! "

   Hudson said bitterly.
