King Chapter 1693

The Nobles of each province on the front line can also reasonably compensate their partners according to the actual situation. Everyone may not be wealthy now, but that doesn’t mean we’ll remain poor in the future. Follow current novels on ⓝovelFire.net After the great victory, the Kingdom’s territory will expand once more, and everyone’s fiefdoms will correspondingly increase. When developing new fiefdoms in the future, the same substantial investment of manpower, materials, and financial resources will be required. By then, having nearby Noble Lords providing material support will greatly enhance the development process and reduce costs!" Hudson calmly drew a grand vision for the Governors of various provinces in the central and southern regions of the Kingdom. Defeating the Orc Empire means having everything; hurry up and invest heavily! Fortunately, this grand vision is being laid out now, had it been a few years prior, everyone would’ve rolled their eyes. Back when developing the Near East, all the Clans were cautious with their investments. If not for Hudson leading the charge and soothing people to some extent, the Near East Land might still remain a wasteland even now. With successful experiences, people’s mindset began changing. Not restricting cooperation partners seems to respect the Nobles’ choices, but actually, it involves Hudson’s personal bias. Self-driven partnerships mean relying on one’s capabilities. Whether it’s feasting or merely sipping soup, it all depends on everyone’s own efforts. Having long been prepared, Snow Moon Territory clearly holds the advantage. Major Nobles will support their branches, but they equally need to consider the cost of investment. Many inland provinces with slower development progress can passably engage in agriculture, but aiming for industrial development, the infrastructure is far too weak. In terms of cost, Snow Moon Territory is the best choice. Of course, considering the principle of shared interests, after taking the industrial cake, Hudson will relinquish agriculture. Things like farming and cultivating can be left to the domain people to carry out gradually; he has plenty of time, no rush. It’s not as easy with other sectors; lacking sufficient talent reserves makes developing the entire industry chain impossible. A simple example: Hudson possesses the manufacturing technology for Magic Crossbows and Magic Crystal Cannons, yet can’t independently produce them. From the specialized steel used to the final inscribing of the Magic Circle, the technical barriers are one after another. Magic Equipment is , other industries with slightly higher technical content are similar. Even if something can be produced with difficulty, the costs are unbelievably high. It’s incredible to hear, even having little technical content, the oil extraction process is a stumbling block to territorial development. It’s not that oil can’t be extracted, it’s just the yield is slightly low by that "tiny fraction." In this era of widespread illiteracy among the bottom class, merely having equipment and technical information isn’t enough; it requires experienced masters to teach hands-on. Now is the best opportunity to solve the issues, any industry related to military matters, Hudson can seek help from the established Nobles. Except for the entertainment industry, almost all other industries can be linked back. Heavy industry is definitely included, Magic Technology is fully comprehensive, even textile and agro-processing can be drawn in. Even without direct relationships, Hudson can find indirect connections. After the court meeting concluded, the entire Kingdom was stirred up. The Kingdom Government, silent for so long, finally took action, and at once, it was a major move affecting everyone. How could the Conservative Faction be conservative? It’s all nonsense. No advance notice at all, from the end of the court meeting, they directly rolled out a "national policy" level strategy. According to the news officially released, this means the Kingdom is about to perform a massive migration involving millions. In this magical world, mere movement of several million people isn’t much, the key is that the migration involves vigorous youths. In the era of nationwide reserves, Alpha Kingdom has as many youths as it does soldiers. Anyone with insight knows this migration from south to east is entirely targeting the Orc Empire. The Kingdom not only transfers production to the East but also shifts its military forces along with it. Once the migration is complete, when future wars break out, the Kingdom Government can field an army of a million immediately. A decision by the big figures is a matter of life and death for ordinary people. Historically, "garrisoning at the border" is tantamount to exile; this time is much the same. Traveling thousands, even tens of thousands of miles to reclaim wasteland, is a test of life and death for ordinary people. However, these sentiments spread only within the Noble circles, while Serfs at the bottom remain ignorant. Public opinion is merely lively, with hardly any opposition. The topic of annihilating the Orc Empire has been circulating within the Kingdom for several years. Yet, after years of discussion, no one found an effective strategy. After last winning triumphantly, the Kingdom’s military strength hardly suffered, when they should have hit the drowning enemy hard, logistics ultimately forced them to retreat and cease action. Having experienced it once, all those with insight realized that simply achieving military victory against the Orc Empire isn’t enough; one must also solve the logistical problems. Now the plan is laid out, directly migrating production there, with the battlefield right at the doorstep. Such a thing was impossible in the past! Before the Kingdom completed the population migration, the Orc Army would have invaded. Now things are completely different, should the Orcs dare come, just fight them off, fearing only that they might not dare. Compared to venturing deep into the grassland searching for Orc main forces for a decisive battle, the cost of a homeland defensive battle is considerably lower.
