Power and Empire Chapter 1218: No matter who it is

The sunny Rì Wachaze area in the south of Vikia. This is a very beautiful morning. The sun shines on the ground like a layer of gold rim. The air in early winter is dry, cold and sweet. Outside the window, the air is dry and sweet. In the integrated sweet potato field, the green stems and leaves entwined with each other seemed to grow several inches overnight, and the gurgling water under the stone bridge outside the castle shone with joy in the rising sun.

Berland Bonnie gently pushed a dining trolley into the room. There were several plates of diced and cooked golden sè food on the dining trolley. As soon as it was pushed in, the room was filled with a tempting aroma, the sunshine Reflected on Berland Bonnie King’s long curly hair, like a waterfall of light flowing down, the slender figure, wearing a straight and close-fitting uniform, outlines a heroic beauty

This is the breakfast you ordered! "

Berrand Bonnie’s dining car stopped, smiled sweetly at the fat man who was looking at her, smiled and came to the fat man, took the fat man’s arm and said, "But before you move the knife, you have to tell me! What is this? If I throw it all away, I will never let you take a bite."

"It's not a secret, but it's the roots of {{●potatoes!"

Fatty looked at her coquettish and full-strength toned body, imagined Burrant Bonnie taking off her clothes and being shy, smiling and saying, "But the hope of the empire, with it, what you mentioned in the report The crisis of the empire should be effectively resolved!"

"Is it so magical?" Burrant Bonnie took a surprised look at the unremarkable food on the dining car, with an expression of disbelief. She just tasted a piece quietly. The taste is very unique, a bit like The taste of roasted nǎi oil mixed with taro, if you say it’s delicious, it’s a past, but if it can solve the food problem this winter, it’s a bit weird.

As the head of the Imperial Affairs Secretariat, she stayed in the three northern counties throughout the fall. The army responsible for the logistical mobilization of the Northern Cold Region and the Battle of Dorok is well aware of the empire’s current huge food problems. Ming, originally based on the southern grain-producing area Vijay, there weren’t many problems with food. But with the Falcon Army’s attack on the northern grasslands,

What was harvested was not only the land of the northern grasslands, but also millions of Kujit refugees. Then within a year, the powerful enemies Swadian and Ruud were eliminated one after another, and the population burden of the empire increased again. 5 million,

These are the 5.6 million mouths that have just ended the war and are in urgent need of reassurance. Even the Falcon Empire, which owns the grain-producing regions in the southwest, is somewhat unbearable in the face of refugees who are almost equal to the country’s total population.

Not to mention that for the expedition to the cold northern regions and Dorok, more than one hundred thousand troops are ready to go. Berrant Bonnie is in the three northern counties to do her best, using all the power of the business alliance, and almost even the stored grain in the warehouse is moved. It’s only enough to be able to support Fatty’s inclusion of the Dorok Mountain in the territory in November,

The war has ended, and the mainland is once again unified under the banner of the Falcon Empire. However, the food problem left behind was not lost due to the war, but was also included in the empire's territory with the population of Dorok. rìbenefit is serious,

Winter is coming. In northern areas like Ikadiva, tens of thousands of people starve to death or freeze to death every winter because of food shortages. This year’s problem is even more serious. 300,000 people from the eastern courtyard moved south. Tribes, waiting to feed millions of Dorok refugees who are in desperate need of food, the food-deficient northern grassland of Kujit, the southern mountainous region of Rode that has just been settled but not yet fully stabilized.

What lies ahead of the empire is not a splendid prospect, but a mess that has been damaged by war and urgently needs to solve various problems.

Although merchant trade has solved the material imbalance in some areas to some extent, the total amount of food will not change. Berrante Anne once asked the secretariat in charge of logistics to calculate, if you want to fill in this amount of food Hollow, at least more than 10 million tons of food is needed. This accounts for almost one-half of the annual output of the entire Falcon Empire. The winter is approaching, and the food problem is becoming more obvious. If it can’t be resolved. , For the newly established empire, a catastrophe is at hand

"Where is Maomao Naqing?" The fat man walked to the dining car like a dexterous cat while Burrant Bonnie was in a daze. He tiptoed up a toothpick with potato pieces, and radiated the steam. The long-lost fragrant potatoes were brought into the mouth, and the hot feeling made him feel relieved.

"Finally succeeded!" The fat man sighed silently in his heart. For the food vacancies caused by continuous battles, he had already arranged arrangements. On the one hand, let people collect the rye that grows in the northern grasslands. One aspect is to order a large area of ​​crops called potatoes to be planted in certain areas in the southern part of Ruode that have just suffered from drought. This is one of his most concerned things.

From the beginning of obtaining potato seeds, he immediately asked the Ministry of Supervision to closely inspect the growth habits of this crop, and then conducted large-scale planting experiments in the mountainous areas. The facts proved that the requirements for the growth of potatoes are extremely simple. The growing temperature requirements are relatively low, but this is not a problem at all for Ikadiva, which is already close to the north.

According to the report submitted by the Ministry of Supervision in the first phase, almost as long as there is soil is enough, and it is cold and drought-resistant. The growth cycle is relative to that of crops such as wheat, which takes only one year. It only takes 90 days to become a mature potato. , Obviously, it is more able to fill the food problem in areas like Ruo De, who has just experienced war-torn areas in the short term. In August, Fatty has ordered the business alliance to join the potato transaction, and it will give it back to Stathurn in Salander. Branch, gave an order to grow a large area in southern Salander, where the climate is relatively mild.

If time permits, at the end of November in winter, the first batch of potatoes will be shipped from the southern Salander to the inland. It should be able to temporarily solve the problem of food shortage in winter, but now the fat man feels a headache is how to expand The most effective way to grow potatoes and make more people believe in this kind of food is to take the lead in eating potatoes.

"Still resting in bed, who told you to be so cruel last night!" Burrant Bonnie gave him a fair look, and said in a weird tone, "A pregnant woman is very emotional."

The fat man smiled bitterly and said, "Who told you two to beat me? I am your opponent." Burrant Bonnie gave the fat man a sideways look, and said, "Two love you and one, and I can't see you. What is the matter of leaving the two of them in the three northern counties for four months?"

"A place like the northern cold region was frozen for thousands of miles, thousands of miles of snow drifted, dripping into ice, and it was an expedition at the time, and it was possible to face the embarrassing situation of a dilemma at any time. It is really not suitable for pregnant women to go with!" The fat man smiled bitterly. [●And the army is in front. There is always someone who needs to be trusted at home. You two are in charge of internal affairs and the other is in charge of military affairs. Without you two, how can I feel at ease!

"But I am also very gratified. Thanks to the joint efforts of the two of you, the three northern counties have a population of more than 700,000 in just 4 months. They have become the economic and cultural center of the northern part of the empire. The 500,000 people in the heyday of Erdian! Without you, all front-line wars would be unsustainable, not to mention bringing the northern cold region into territory and control like you are now. You are the biggest contributors in this battle. !"

"If this is the case, what kind of reward should you give!" Burrant Bonnie blinked playfully. Just as the fat man looked dazzled, Burrant's face flushed slightly. Bonnie whispered to the fat man’s ear, "If I can, Bonnie would like a child of your majesty"

"Ahem...

. "Fatty was scared by this sentence and quickly coughed awkwardly

"Hehe, I was joking with you! Don’t think I don’t know what you think, and I want to be cheap and I don’t want to be responsible. Isn’t it always your man’s common problem?" Burrant Bonnie said with triumph on her face With a nice voice like a silver bell, I turned around, sorted the documents on the desk with an elegant and aristocratic gesture, and said casually, "But I heard that you seem to have met a Doro in Dorok. A woman, and she was almost in danger. Don’t say that I didn’t remind you. Dorok women are world-famous for their beauty, but they are more famous for their cruelty and decisiveness. The most famous women in mainland history are almost All Dorok women! To give true love to a Dorok woman is the most stupid act in the world"

"Really? There is such a thing?"

The fat man pretended to be stupid. In fact, he knew very well that Marshal Burrant had not turned his face with the Cloud of Doroc because of a woman of Doroc, and eventually led to the most successful one of the Cloud of Doroc for Swadian. The infiltration failed, [●Under the brutal counterattack from Erdian, one of the three masters chose to retreat to Aaron, and the other fled to Vikia to form a new dark thorn,

In terms of Swadian, the dark nobleman known as the Three Carriage, who was in control of the kingdom's power at that time, also fell apart. Every time the fat man asked about this, Prays, one of the parties in the year, always avoided talking about history. It’s impossible to know the truth like a cloud of smoke, but as the only daughter of Marshal Burrant, Burrant Bonnie’s life experience is not that simple. At least Marshal Burrant, whom the fat man knows, has not lived after that incident. Marry

The fat man wanted to say to Berrant Bonnie, who hates the Doroks, "I doubt that you are a woman of Dorok blood." But under Berrant Bonnie’s blade-like eyes, The fat man held it back very witty,

At this time, the voice of the guard sounded outside the room, "Your Majesty, Lord Dusternky, the Secretary of the Navy, has an urgent need to see you!"

"Du Stellenkai?" The fat man got up from his seat in surprise~IndoMTL.com~ shouted to the door, "Let him come in!"

Soon, Dusterenkai, in a dark blue navy uniform, hurriedly walked in from outside the door, "Your Majesty, there are some problems in the Southern Sea. The Normans abandoned the island chain. Now it is within the scope of other kingdoms!"

"So what?" The fat man said calmly without raising his eyes.

"Your Majesty, those island chains no longer belong to the Normans, and they are now occupied by other kingdoms!" Dusterenkai sweated on his forehead, thinking that His Majesty Falcon had not heard clearly, and continued to repeat "If we follow the original Make a plan, it is likely that war will break out with other kingdoms!"

"I know, and I know this very well"-the son stared at him indifferently, and said slowly, "As an imperial navy, I should have the consciousness of fighting the enemy at any time. I don't care who is there. I only want the island chain, I think I understand what I mean!"

"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Dusterenkai nodded quickly
