My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 487 The first meeting

“Today is the first meeting after I am crowned king. Our main discussion this time is how to fight the church’s attack next.”

After the count and Legion leaders below were seated, Gervais watched everyone slowly speak.

“According to the information the Rangers have been investigating these days, the church will launch a general attack on us in the near future!”

After Gervais finished speaking, the count below did not speak. Meaning, because they knew about these situations a few days ago.

So, Gervais paused and continued

“And this morning I got some bad news. The soldiers were also included in the army.”

“Jean dukedom and Alban dukedom captured at least 50,000 soldiers, which means that in the near future, we need to face the church at least Seventy thousand troops!”

“Your Majesty, is this news reliable?”

This time, the people below are no longer calm, which is very uncomfortable for them good news.

Originally, the strength of the church made it difficult for them to resist, and now the abandoned soldiers were included in the team, so their pressure was several times greater than before.

“The news is absolutely reliable. I have sent five waves of rangers to investigate, and the results of the investigation are all the same!”

“The church has captured those prisoners, and is helping them with the help of the prisoners. Let’s start building siege vehicles and trebuchets!”

Gervais gave them a positive answer.

And the following counts are all lost in thought.

Now the City of Glory is their last barrier. If the Church cannot be kept out of the City of Glory, the entire continent will fall into the hands of the Church.

“Your Majesty, we now have a total of 20,000 troops in the City of Glory. Although the supplies are sufficient, the strength of the church is very strong. I think we should gather troops and horses from the territory to come to glory again. The city.”

At this time, the count of the Stanley family was the first to propose.

No one wants to be a puppet of the church, even more how they are now impossible to be accepted by the church, so no one wants to be attacked by the church at this time.

“Although this is the best solution at the moment, there is one thing I think you need to pay attention to!”

“Winter is just over a month away! We need to defend the city of glory, but the orcs in the same territory also need to be guarded.”

“And I can tell you very clearly that the appearance of the orcs is inseparable from the church, and I am very worried about this. Not only are the number of orcs more numerous than ever, but the timing may be even earlier.”

Sitting in the main seat, the count’s worried expression Gervais taking in the entire scene.

At this moment, he also said what he was most worried about.

Although the great nobles had doubts before, no one dared to really conclude that the orcs were the conspiracy of the church, but Gervais was sure.

Although the large army of the church was blocked by the city of glory, there must be many hidden spies of the church in Jean dukedom.

Although Jean dukedom has been searching for church personnel in the past few days, most of them have only caught some ordinary pastors.

Some spies who have the title of strength or secret have long been lurking.

Gervais is very worried that these people will cooperate with the church’s large army and open the Transmission Gate in advance to allow the orcs to arrive.

……

The news of Gervais made the counts even more dismayed, and it was already difficult enough to face the church army.

If the rear is messed up again, then Jean dukedom will really be like a boat in a storm, and it will be crushed at any time.

“Your Majesty, what should we do now?”

A group of counts stared at Gervais intently, expecting Gervais to give a countermeasure.

Now that Gervais had thought of this, they guessed that Gervais must have thought of a countermeasure too.

“We’ve lost so many soldiers in the Alban dukedom now, the dukedom is seriously understaffed, so not only can’t we draw people from the territory, but we’ve got them fortified, move in now The fortifications during the winter of the past.”

“Your Majesty, just like this, many people need to be evacuated in advance!”

“There is no way to withdraw! When an orc appears, we are the one who loses! So I hope you count families can take the initiative to distribute some food to appease the serfs who were forced to evacuate.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

That’s all said, no one dared to refute Gervais’s words, after all, this was Gervais’s first decision after being crowned king.

It’s just to pay some money and food. When life and death are at stake, they are still willing.

“What about Your Majesty, the City of Glory?”

“That’s exactly what I’m going to say now!”

Gervais nodded with a smile , indicating that they don’t be impatient, and continued.

“Everyone has seen the formidable power of my small steel cannon and musket!”

“Yes, Your Majesty’s small steel cannon not only has large formidable power, but also shoots well. More accurate and farther than a trebuchet!”

“In addition to being more accurate and farther, it’s easier to forge!”

Gervais smiled, thinking about it, now against the church As an ordinary soldier, artillery is his biggest support at present, so he needs a lot of forging artillery and muskets.

And Gervais doesn’t worry about the artillery gun’s manufacturing process leaking, because the nitrate mine is only available in his mining space.

“But forging small steel cannons and muskets requires a necessary metal, and that is mithril! And it’s a lot of mithril”

The strength of the church in Jean dukedom today It has been pulled out, so the mithril mines of each count have fallen back into their respective hands.

And Gervais was trying to take this opportunity to collect some more mithril, and the forging artillery was the best excuse.

I have put so much effort into it, and I have to give out gunpowder, so these counts can’t come out of nothing.

“Your Majesty, there is a mithril mine in my count’s territory, which is already being mined. I’ll send a letter back later and ask them to send over the refined mithril. There should be a Baidok!”

The Lord of the North was the first to speak, and Gervais became king, which was definitely a good thing for the Wynton family, so he was very supportive of Gervais.

It’s just that the mithril ore content of the Winton family is very low, and it may not be able to extract 100 grams in a month, so this is already the limit given by the Lord of the North.

This is because Mithril was not taken away last month, and the Winton family detained it from the church.

“Your Majesty, although there is no mithril mine in our Elvor family count, we have collected some in the past. We are willing to contribute 30 grams of mithril!”

” I’m Stan…”

With the Lord of the North taking the lead, several other counts also expressed their opinions.

Although some families do not have mithril mines, they have taken out their treasures.

Next, Gervais discussed with several counts again about how to train soldiers and fortify the fortifications, and his first meeting was over.

Excessive! The next volume of the sacred continent will be opened soon!
