Chapter 508 Sacred Axis Camp


Chapter 508: The Holy Axis Faction

On November 1, 1445 in the Imperial Calendar, the Holy Axis Faction was officially announced at Castle Joan of Arc.

In addition to the six secret parties in the northern county of Black Snake Bay, Brago Monastery also joined as a special observer.

Looking at the newly printed Sacred Axis Agreement in his hand, Horn had mixed feelings for a moment.

It is now the end of autumn, and the chilly wind blows in from the four-petal gear-shaped flower window, blowing the documents piled on the table tottering.

After taking off his thin autumn velvet jacket, Horn put on a tweed black jacket.

This kind of clothing is too plain for the aesthetics of this era, and is quite similar to the uniforms of the Salvation Army.

For Horn, he prefers this kind of clothes without too many red and green fancy styles.

In the answer of the citizens of Fort Joan of Arc, it is to show their determination for the war that they wear military uniforms all year round.

But Horn wants to complain about this. This is not a tribute. He wears formal clothes in formal diplomatic occasions.

"Raphael, go and close the window."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Raphael, who was sharpening his quill next to him, stood up from the door and closed it. The windows of the Holy Advent Hall.

Before Rafael could sit down, Horn called him over again: "Rafel, how have our partners been doing in the past two days?"
< br>"The Flame Rose Society, the Dragon Language Scholars Society and the Baldhead Society have all gone to Autumn Sunset Island." Rafael immediately replied, "The Painful Monks want to protect Lord Lulesi on her return journey. They are currently still in Castle Joan, following Catherine. Your Excellency travels everywhere.”

"What about the Brago Monks?"

"They have been keeping the door closed, but we caught three sneaky people near the More Manor where they live, and Gilo is 80% I am sure that they are the demon hunters."

"It seems that the relationship between the two has not improved. They will return tomorrow. I hope the dispute can be resolved before March next year." En leaned the back of his head on the cushion on the back of the chair, "How is the investigation of the person who leaked the information?" ”

“Hurry up, it’s best to decide before the end of the year and implement it as soon as possible.”

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will go to the night watchman immediately." After saluting Horn, Rafael trotted out of the study door.

Watching Raphael's back disappear behind the door, Horn raised his head, stared at the ceiling with layers of geometric patterns, and laughed self-deprecatingly.

During this period, in order to ensure effective administration of the territory, he had to absorb a large number of former local monks and citizens into the government.

Unlike those veteran players who fought against the pressure of the Battle of Pavia, those who joined later, or even joined in the form of transformed prisoners of war, are not as firm as those who came before.

Some people are even less enlightened than the Brago monks who joined later.

It's not that Horn doesn't have that many reliable people who can run the government, it's that these people are in the military.

In order to ensure the reliability of the military, we can only temporarily abandon the reliability of the government.

When the situation stabilizes in the future, Horn will probably purge a group of people and replace them with more reliable administrative monks with military background.

Taking out a pen and jotting down something in his small notebook, he stretched and returned his gaze to the agreement on the table.

This is Horn's biggest diplomatic achievement during this period. The Salvation Army's theoretical boundaries have penetrated deep into the northern county of Black Snake Bay.

According to the "1445 Joan of Arc-Long Beach Agreement", the Salvation Army will build six commercial ports and freight terminals along the Ibe River within one year, and widen some river channels.

At the same time, the Salvation Army will also build a sweet branch pressing workshop on the Red Copper Fortress site to produce the original version of brown sugar, and then transport it to the north.

The future center of the sugar industry will probably be located near Fort Joan of Arc.

Firstly, the river transportation here is convenient and suitable for large-scale brown sugar and grain transactions. Secondly, this is the core of the Salvation Army's rule, and the efficiency will be much higher than other places. In addition, Horn also specially set up the Alchemy Development Bureau under the Sacred Axis.

For example, the Flame Rose Society's electro-gold technology, the Bald Club's monster breeding technology, the Joan Party's mortar and orichalcum technology, and a series of alchemy potion formulas are all under development.

The Alchemy Development Bureau will cooperate with the Royal Natural Seminary of the Holy Arms Court to set up a special research institute and alchemy school on the west bank of the Pala River in Qiu Mu Island, putting aside the dispute and jointly developing it.

The chief director of this position is held by Bachelor Kelben, a dragon language scholar, and the deputy position is held concurrently by Halkin.

At Lulesi's request, Horn will send a group of officers into Black Snake Bay to help them train the army.

A group of Black Snake Bay people will also be sent to serve and train in the Salvation Army, and attend the officer school (Sentangey College).

At the same time, the Convent of Brago, as a special observer, also provided a large number of freshly minted monks and nuns.

After one to three months of further training on Qiu Mu Island, they will officially enter the government system of the Salvation Army.

In this way, the large framework is built.

In light industry, there is sugar in the food processing industry, scroll spinning in the textile industry, and movable type and ink in the printing industry.

In terms of heavy industry, there is some shortage, because the only heavy industry in Horn's hands is orichalcum and mortar.

In terms of steel, although Jeanne's lightning refining method can refine crude iron into steel, she can't refine much by herself.

How to develop technology in steel smelting has always been the top priority of Horn's technology planning.

When he was wooing the dwarves, he once asked them if they had this kind of technology. The answer was, "If they did, would we dwarves still be like what we are today?"

This time he and Hei Shewan United tried to ask if there was any relevant alchemy technology.

Other than asking for a few more lightning-shaping wizards, Lulesi did not have any other alchemy or magic skills.

After all, Black Snake Bay is not an iron ore producing area, so they have to rely on imports.

So in the steel industry, the most important heavy industry of the Salvation Army, Horn was hit hard.

You must know that Horn's military expansion also needs to keep up with a large amount of ordnance and armor, and these weapons and equipment require the steel industry.

Even with the current production capacity, the current output of the mine in Mayo Town cannot keep up with Horn's demand.

So some iron ingots had to be smuggled from outside to meet the demand.

Although the Salvation Army is currently in a state of blockade, smuggling is not difficult with the current control of the Thousand Valley Church and the chaotic effect brought about by the Lancers.

As long as it is not bulk commodities, the border between the two sides is like a sieve. By bribing any patrol leader, you can transport food and supplies to the Saint Sun Rebel Army in Hotam County.

Not to mention smuggling thousands of pounds of iron ingots.

The disadvantage is that it is too expensive, causing the cost of making ironware to rise sharply. Almost all the production capacity has been swallowed up by the military, and the private sector has even had to implement rationing.

There really are no good iron ore mines in the south of the Thousand River Valley. The good iron ore mines are all in North Mound County and Upper River County in the north.

The only solution for now is to connect with Meliati in the north. Anyway, relying on advanced production relations, Horn can ensure that the steel output is more than the same workshop in the empire.

After half a year of rest, the Salvation Army should have trained its troops even if it didn't go well, and then it's time to go to the battlefield to see the real chapter.

Picking up the quill that Raphael had just sharpened, Horn solemnly wrote a string of words on a piece of white paper.

"Summer Counterattack!"
