【You apply to Ash for teaching. 】

[You have studied politics, politics +3, knowledge +1. ]

[In March 1781, after your governance, the public sentiment in the four major regions of Amuse, Desibia, Ludia, and Atessi improved, and public security was greatly improved. ]

“Well…it’s finally starting to get better.”

Here, Ash saw the message prompt and showed a satisfied look.

After such a long period of rectification, all kinds of indicators in the four major regions have recovered. The most important thing is that the stability and economy have improved rapidly. As expected, once this kind of thing is controlled by the local high-level officials and suppressed by the nobles in each place, the common people can’t resist at all.

In other words, most civilians have never thought about rebelling. It doesn’t matter to them who the ruler is, because their direct superior (the city lord) has not changed. As long as the current policy is not worse than the previous one and they are given a way to survive, there is no question of rebellion.

After the four major regions were stabilized, he did not rush to continue expanding, but began to reap the fruits of his labor.

[In May 1781, you issued a series of policies and received good feedback.]

[In July 1781, the economy, people’s livelihood, and public security in various places improved… You are called “the most virtuous prince in history” by the people of the Arctic Ice Kingdom, and your reputation in the Arctic Ice Kingdom far exceeds that of Esde.]

【Achievement ‘Uncrowned King’ obtained. 】

Facts have proved that when efficient productivity replaces backward production methods and the economy improves, even if the policies implemented are more exploitative than before, the people will still shout “wise king”!

I oppress them, and they are grateful to me!

Thought suppresses reality.

【The training of the magic armor iron pagoda is completed.】

【The training of the kidnapper horse is completed.】

【The training of the battle axe soldiers is completed.】

[The number of Khorne followers has increased, and the current number is 800,000. 】

Ash glanced and directly increased the number of Khorne’s guards to eight thousand.

[The number of Slaanesh followers has increased, and the current number is one thousand. 】

【The bishop position is unlocked.】

Higher-level positions in each faith path are unlocked as the number of believers increases.

Ash thought for a moment and promoted Margarion to Bishop of Slaanesh.

The advantage of becoming a bishop is that their abilities will be extra blessed, and they will be chosen by God in the future, but the conditions for being chosen by God are more stringent.

【Magarion becomes Bishop of Slaanesh.】

[In October 1781, the kingdom’s border was attacked by orcs, and you sent troops to repel them.]

[In November, the Tahagan tribe’s troops frequently appeared on the border of the kingdom.]

Ash ignored the actions of the orcs and nomads.

Beat them when they come.

There is only one purpose, and that is development, development, and damn development!

[In January 1782, a cold wave hit many countries in the north, causing a sharp drop in population.]

On the strategic map, white fog covered most of the northern border, and various regions of the Arctic Ice Kingdom were also affected to varying degrees. Fortunately, after a whole year of recuperation, the cold wave did not cause too much harm to the Arctic Ice Kingdom.

[In March 1782, the cold wave slowly receded. ]

“Only so few people died?”

Esde was stunned when she saw the death toll from the cold wave. Then she looked at the national strength value and gradually understood.

As long as we are strong enough, we can resist even natural disasters.

“This guy… is too strong.”

Esde sighed softly. For a whole year, she had been suppressed by Ash and had never found a chance to turn the tables.

Not only that, now Ash’s identity as the regent minister has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the past, some people thought that the kingdom should be ruled by the Queen of Ice and that men should not be allowed to rebel against the Tiangang, but now no one mentions it at all.

[In March 1782, Yaxiu recruited troops and dispatched 3 troops to attack the nomadic people.]

“Are you finally getting started?”

Esde nodded slightly. Based on her understanding of Ash, it was time to send troops, and the first target would be the nomadic people.

If she were in his place, she would do the same.

The nomadic peoples are too chaotic, and their threat to the kingdom is far more serious than those principalities, because those principalities dare not act recklessly when facing the Arctic Ice Kingdom, but the nomadic peoples are not afraid, and they can just run away if they cannot defeat them.

But Esde knew that Ash would not give these nomads a chance to escape.

Just then, another message popped up –

[In April 1782, the Holy See sent troops to Nicaea on the pretext of “eliminating heretics.”]

This message caught Ash’s attention.

He had discovered before that Benicia was already developing, and after nearly two years of transition, the number of Khorne followers in Benicia had reached more than 700,000, while the entire Arctic Ice Kingdom had only 800,000.

It was too fast. The faith in Benicely was developing too fast, faster than his side.

Thanks to this, Ash used the power of faith to break through the barrier of the eighth-level sanctuary.

“It really happened.”

He knew that if he continued like this, Benicia would definitely be targeted by the Holy See.

Because of his deliberate protection of the Arctic Ice Kingdom and the fact that it was difficult for the Holy See to reach out to this side, the information the Holy See obtained about the Khorne believers here was far less than that obtained by Nicea.

In fact, the Holy See has been confronting Benicia since half a year ago.

Even a public warning was issued to let Benicia deal with the cultists.

But the King of Benicia was too arrogant. He completely ignored it and allowed Khorne to develop.

There are more than 700,000 cultists. Isn’t this clearly telling people that you want to destroy the Holy See?

It would be strange if they don’t send troops!

Ash thought for a while and decided that he couldn’t let Benicia be destroyed by the Holy See. The rise of Benicia this time was also an opportunity for him. Apart from the believers, he had to count on the King of Benicia to help him reach the quasi-god realm.

“Since the war has already begun, let’s bring the holy war forward a bit.” ⑨

Ash decided to send troops to attack the Holy See.

But not all. 5

All we need to do is to make them afraid and not dare to attack Benicea with all their might.

Once he gets rid of the orcs and nomads, it will be time for an all-out war.

[You thought for a long time, then called Esder over.]

[‘The Holy See is powerful, and Benicia cannot be destroyed. After much thought, I think it is best for you to lead the army to fight against the Holy See.’]

[Esde was stunned: “I’m going to fight the Holy See? Is there any chance of winning now?”]

【You look at her with a smile: “You will win.”】

……

……

Yesterday’s bounty statistics: 1578 recommendation tickets, 144 monthly tickets, 2588 rewards, 60 blades, bounty continues, begging for monthly tickets! Blades!

Eat, shit, type, type, type, type!

Volume 98: Chapter 88 Chapter 2 Wei’s FA tactics, the defeat of the Holy Court, the painting begins!

Will it win?

Although Ash said ‘I will win’, Esde still didn’t have confidence.

She had dealt with the Holy See several times before, and had lost every time without exception. Although they were not as powerful as they are now, it could be seen from the end of Irelia’s simulation that the Holy See must have some cards that they could not expect.

It’s a pity that when Zi Ling attacked the Holy See, Irelia turned off the simulation synchronization, otherwise she could use this information gap to deal with the Holy See.

However, Esde quickly realized that Ash had only given her 50,000 people, and they were all kingdom troops. Although their strength was not bad, it was impossible for such a small number of people to take down the Holy See, so this was a disguised support for Benicia.

But, in the name of what?

Ash didn’t say anything.

[‘This is a test for you.’]

Although Esde thought that the reason of giving an exam in the name of studying was a bit cunning, she changed her mind and thought, why not use this test to impress Ash and let Margaret’s mother see her excellence?

Thinking back to what happened last year, every time she wanted to do something as the queen, she was always denied by Ash.

It seemed as if in his eyes, she couldn’t do anything right.

Ash, you will recognize me sooner or later!

……

At the same time, inside the college.

Wei Nei stared at the simulation interface and scratched her head.

Seems a bit messed up.

The Cult of Khorne grew too fast, so the Holy See sent troops directly.

The army of 100,000 was led by her old acquaintance, Cardinal Clement.

“Strange, the strength of the Holy Court seems to have improved.”

Deploying 100,000 people at once is a bit scary.

However, the Holy See has been entrenched in the Rhea continent for such a long time and has almost monopolized the faith, so it is normal that it is strong. If the Holy See deploys troops in advance, the number of troops it can bring out will be beyond imagination.

Wei Nei didn’t care about these things. Since it had come to this point, she might as well fight.

“Um…”

Wei Nei opened the list of subordinates and wondered what she would do if Ash was leading the troops.

Just a snap of the head and the entire army attacks?

That certainly won’t work.

Vene glanced at the Kingdom’s military deployment—

Magic Armor Iron Pagoda: 80,000

Light cavalry: 30,000

Archers: 30,000

Griffin: 30,000

Mage: 2,000

“good.”

Since becoming the queen, Weine has been recruiting troops like crazy. The advantage of Benicia is that it has a large population, so the speed of recruiting soldiers is very fast. No money? The next door has it. No supplies? The next door also has it. In short, in addition to ensuring basic stability and economic development, Weine uses all the extra manpower to train soldiers.

Although the attributes of the Iron Pagodas she trained were much lower than those trained by Yaxiu, they were at least genuine heavy cavalry, equipped with war horses, and all pseudo-excellent equipment. With this batch of armed forces alone, Wei Nei hollowed out the three surrounding principalities.

Then the three principalities complained to the Holy See about Benicia’s brutal invasion and destruction of the stable development of the East Continent.

Wei Nei was disdainful. You said you want to destroy it? I just went to your house to get some things. I didn’t occupy your territory.

Yes, Venetian only plundered, not occupied land, and took the resources and left. She was more orcish than the orcs, and was directly called the “mad queen”. The Holy Court wanted to stop it, but Benicia’s status was here. Even if the Holy Court was strong, don’t think of yourself as the king of Rhea.

Wei Nei didn’t care. At worst, she could just play, and when she ran out of moves, she could just start over and continue playing next time. She had never thought that she could complete the second stage main quest on her own, so she just played however she wanted.

In fact, it’s not that the Holy See does not want to restrict Benicia, but the Arctic Ice Kingdom is of greater concern to them. With the lands of the four principalities in their hands, they can easily seize the granary of the North. Even an orc can guess what they want to do next!

Jibing wants to build an empire!

This is a real threat, so the Holy See’s arrangements were all in the North for some time, until last month when Khorne broke out in Benicea and attacked a bishop who tried to establish a dialogue. The two sides fought each other, resulting in the death of the bishop and all the accompanying believers being burned to death.
