Chapter 960 New Enemy Situation

In the days after the train was released publicly, Wudong City was always filled with a high atmosphere.

Even sitting in the castle, Roland could feel the rising emotions of the people. This was not from his speculation, but from real data in the city hall report.

"The settlement applications we received in the past three days were 60% more than usual, of which nearly half, or 725 people were newcomers who had moved for less than two months! This is equivalent to shortening the average submission time for settlement applications from five months to three and a half months!" Barov said with a report in his eyes, "After the devil's attack, the data had dropped slightly. Now not only has the decline been filled, but it has also increased significantly, which shows that the public's concerns about the devil are no longer worth worrying! Your Majesty, this display event has been a great success!"

Since Roland brought the concept of data statistics and comprehensive analysis to management, the number in the report of the General Manager of the City Hall has become more and more specific, as if he cannot draw conclusions without putting two sets of comparison data. Not only that, he has also created many analysis formulas, and "arrival-settlement interval" is one of them.

According to Barov, it reflects the relocated decision of migrants to join Wushen City. Due to the establishment of the ID card system, refugees must apply to the city hall if they want to become formal residents, for the conditions of either having a skill or obtaining a fixed residence. In addition, those who have passed the review and have lived for a year and have no bad records will also be accepted by the city hall.

For newcomers, waiting and watching is almost an instinct. In addition, the difference in work salary, the time to save enough down payment for housing is also different, so the average value method is used. The shorter the interval, the more loyal it is to be to the king and the more confident it is to be to the new king.

Roland had a different view of this conclusion. He had never believed in the loyalty of strangers, and confidence was reasonable, but in the final analysis, the people's most concerned about is whether their future interests can be guaranteed.

Holding your thighs is a choice that is in the interests of the interests at any time, so when you show your strength at the right time, you can greatly increase the cohesion of the people. Trains are undoubtedly such a tool, even if most people know nothing about its nature, it will not hinder the burly body, the roaring cylinder, and the pressure brought by hundreds of tons.

When it drove through the crossing of the castle area with unyielding momentum, even thunder was amazed and different from sea transportation. The confrontation with gravity on the ground has always restricted the upper limit of land transportation, and the emergence of the train obviously broke this situation. He even laughed and said that when he was too old to take risks, he must move his whole family to Wudongcheng to live. After all, there are so many new things here, and settling here is an adventure.

Even the most famous explorers in the Fjord were so amazed, let alone ordinary people.

Where can I choose to go without waiting for such a promising place?

"In addition, the city hall has received many invitations from merchants, including Chishui and Yinguang's Chamber of Commerce." Barov continued, "They are eager to meet you, probably wanting to find out more about the train."

"Reject all," Roland smiled. "Train is not a commodity at the moment, and even if I am willing to sell it, the price is not something they can afford. But you can sell them other goods such as the first and second generation steam engines that have been replaced from the mine."

Today, Wudong City is no longer the poor border town in the past. It is a chamber of commerce that can be received by the lord. If there is no special friendship, it is enough for the head of the city hall to deal with them.

"I get it," the latter said, touching his beard.

"Since the public's sentiment is high, the new reserve system can also be implemented, right?" Roland changed the topic.

Barov nodded, "I think there should be no problem. But... Your Majesty, do you really think we will hit that point?"

"Just in case. It's a war that determines the fate of mankind. Shouldn't it be serious?"

The formulation of a new reserve system was a task assigned to the General Staff after he returned from the war. Its main content included popularizing military training and expanding the reserve source of reserves. The former required the addition of military training content to primary education to cultivate the most basic sense of discipline and common sense of combat. The latter was designed to organize and lead the people in batches without affecting production, which is a disguised militia system.

Since the new system is enforced, it is obviously most appropriate to implement it while taking advantage of the hot stalls. Once the system is in operation, the Grayburg Army has become a self-healing organism. When there are insufficient troops on the current line, it can be directly supplemented from the rear, so as to avoid the fact that each group of newcomers needs to take two or three months to start from scratch, just like in the past.

As for the Second Army, which was originally a reserve force, Roland also planned to transfer to Wudong City. Changge District no longer had the need to resist the invasion of Tifeco and the Church. At the same time, the previous two-leaf operation also made him feel that it was very necessary to establish a second combat force. It was impossible that after the Battle of Divine Will broke out, he had to personally command the army to the front line.

"A new round of military recruitment can also be prepared," Roland instructed. "When the evil moon is over, I hope to see that the number of combatants in the formal troops exceeds 10,000, and the supporting resources cannot be left behind. Do you understand?"

"As for your order, your majesty." Barov agreed immediately.

"Very good, you go down...wait!" Roland suddenly frowned.

"Do you have any more instructions?" The supervisor stopped quickly.

Roland's attention at this moment was attracted by the Nightingale's words. "There was news from Sylvie that there was new movement on the devil's side! The terror beast seemed to have expanded the inspection area, and a suspected new camp is under construction."

"Let them come back quickly," Roland whispered, then looked at Barov, "Immediately call the ministers of various departments to come to the castle for a meeting, and I'm in trouble in the north."

...

Soon the castle conference hall was filled with people.

This was the first time that Sylvie participated in such a meeting, and she looked a little nervous. Fortunately, Lightning stood up in time and helped her tell the story in full.

This was originally a normal routine investigation.

Due to the existence of the flying terror beast, Roland prohibited lightning for safety. Maisie and Loga approached the ruins of Tachila alone. However, the devil's movements must not be ignored. Therefore, every three days, Maisie will carry Sylvie to conduct a border investigation. This is also a problem caused by the failure of the illusion instrument to accurately locate it, and can only be compensated by the witch's ability.

Fortunately, the Magic Eye's insight distance is far beyond the enemy's range of activities. In addition to frequent dispatch, this move has no other disadvantages. It is basically just enough to take a look at it within a safe distance.
