General Zuo didn't know when Sara made a deal with Sesshomaru to let the mountain ghost help, but thinking about it, it should have been during the time after they left.
"The mountain ghost probably hasn't left yet. I have to go and see it." It's impossible not to be afraid of monsters. General Zuo also came back with it later. We experienced a lot together along the way, and the fear in his heart dissipated a lot.
Having been together a lot, they can be considered comrades-in-arms, not to mention that they will have to attack other countries in the future, so they have to get to know each other.
The second god Kyousuke knew what General Zuo was talking about, and he was nodding his head at this moment. Attacking other countries is a big deal for the Salo Kingdom, so it must be done cautiously and cautiously.
Thinking of the civil servants in the court who had nothing to say but had a lot of dissatisfaction with Sara in their hearts, Ergami Kyosuke had a headache. They should not do anything wrong at this time.
It is impossible not to make mistakes, even in your lifetime.
Before Sara took over the Sara Kingdom, he knew that many people would be dissatisfied, so he was prepared for this. But what he didn't expect was that Kyousuke the Second God would be so dedicated.
If you want to go to war with an enemy country, you can't fight directly with just one sentence. You need logistics and food and fodder.
Government orders were gradually issued from the city lord's palace through ministers with different positions. If there was going to be a war, the people would definitely be the first to know.
Military service and food must come from the people. In the past, when the old city lord was still there, there were never so many wars. As soon as Salo came to power, he would attack other countries.
The people were not afraid of her, and they disapproved of her both privately and openly. The officials knew about these sounds and pretended not to know.
"City Lord, there is a lot of criticism among the people about the war. How should we deal with it?" After knowing the news, Kyosuke the Second God immediately went to the City Lord's Mansion to report. This is why Sara felt that he was loyal.
Sara is very determined about the war: "It has not been long since the last time the troops came to the city. The enemy is likely to come back again. The mountain ghost is our biggest advantage now. It would be a pity not to use it."
"In this way, after you go down, you can publicize the enemy's bad reputation. When public opinion rises, you can publicize the justice of the war."
The country that the Sara Kingdom wanted to attack this time was the one that came to provoke them last time. Sesshomaru killed all the enemies present, but did not let the country behind them perish.
The enemy country is there, and if it is not removed, it will be an eternal thorn. There is hatred between the country and the family, and the people also have feelings. Knowing that they are the ones to be beaten, maybe the attitude will be different.
After hearing this idea, Ergami Kyosuke thought for a moment and slapped his thigh: "The city lord's plan is very good."
In that battle, many people's sons and relatives died in the hands of the enemy. They would definitely not refuse this opportunity to avenge themselves, and maybe they would even help convince other people.
"Also pay more attention to whether there are officials involved in adding fuel to the flames. If so, write a list and submit it to me." Sara looked like she was just dealing with a small matter.
She doesn't care what Kyousuke the Second God will think after hearing this. Will the rabbit die and the fox be sad? If he thought he was in league with those people, then there would be nothing for Sara to say.
Sara handed over this matter to Ergami Kyosuke, with the intention of testing it, and at the same time, it also gave the other party a chance to take sides. Whether he is an enemy or a friend all depends on how he chooses.
Ergami Kyousuke smiled bitterly, and he only hesitated for a few moments before agreeing. Hadn't he thought of this a long time ago? This city lord is not something anyone can decide, and sooner or later such a day will appear.
Seeing the second god Kyosuke go, Sara felt relaxed. There are still too few people who can be used now. It would be great if there were more capable ministers like this. Nowadays, the court is full of old guys who just stand and do nothing. .
Just wait, she will definitely pull them all down if she gets the chance.
"If we can defeat them, how many points can we gain?" Sara doesn't care about how much power of subjugation the system can absorb, only how many points can be gained.
In the Sarao Kingdom, or in this Warring States Period, the farming technology was really backward, and the area of cultivated land it had was also very small. Under this situation, all Salo can think of is improving the efficiency of production tools and increasing production volume.
She knew that fighting a war consumes the country's strength. If it were not for these things, she would not insist on fighting, and even borrowed the mountain ghost when she said goodbye to Sesshomaru.
The ways to improve production efficiency and increase output are in the system mall. Farm tools, planting methods, and grain seeds all cost 5,000 points. As a newbie, she could only get one hundred points on credit, and she had spent them all. Five thousand points, could she raise them all by conquering that country?
[By capturing the Tata Kingdom, the host will receive six thousand points. 】
Sara was shocked by the high number of points, and the answers given by the system were also very convincing. There are only so many countries in this island country. If the points given are too few, she will not be able to buy the goods in the mall.
All point allocations are reasonably calculated based on the actual situation, and there is no situation where Salo will be stretched even after winning the battle.
[The stronger the country captured, the more points you will get. Please cheer up the host and complete the mission as soon as possible and return to the original world. 】
Sara was slightly startled when she heard that the system mentioned the original world. It had been a while since she came to this world, and she almost forgot about going back because she was so busy. She worked so hard to restore the country in her previous life, but was poisoned by the new emperor. She hated it. Wasn't it because of her hatred that she agreed to come to this world to do the mission of the system.
She can't be limited by her feelings, everything must be aligned with her goal: "You're right, I have to work hard."
The strength of the Tata Kingdom is actually not strong. If it were not the case, it would not have focused on the relatively peaceful Salo Kingdom in the first place, and it would be time to compete with other powerful countries for hegemony.
The people were frightened when it came to war, but when they knew that it was them who were going to fight, and there were mountain ghosts in the Salo Kingdom to help them, they felt much more at ease.
Public opinion is like this, twisted into a rope, even if you are afraid at first, you are no longer afraid of the future. Of course, some ministers who didn't want Sara to control the country so easily took action.
They let another wave of people spread the propaganda that war is not good and that war will only kill more people. Should we sacrifice other people's sons and other people's relatives who are still alive for the dead?
This statement is really unreasonable. If you say this, who will protect this country in the future? Which soldier can charge forward without hesitation? What kind of cold-hearted guy were they protecting? He was so hesitant to even avenge them.
After all, Kyousuke the Second God was not a vegetarian. While asking people to respond actively, he viciously wrote down all the officials who were causing trouble. After the second wave of propaganda, the anti-war voices gradually dissipated a lot in the days that followed. Even if there were still some opposing voices, they would not have much effect.
"Yes, we can't be without conscience. This is a good opportunity. Maybe we can win."
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. After this incident, the whole country of Sara became united.
Da Nayan's mansion.
Nigami Kyosuke sat in his study room and had been looking at the list of officials who had stirred up trouble all morning. Finally, he closed his eyes for a long time. When he opened his eyes again, he hurriedly shouted to the boy outside the door: "Get ready to go to the city lord's mansion!"
"yes!"
For the sake of his own future and the future of the whole family, Kyousuke the Second God decided that he must express his most sincere loyalty to Sara.
There were many ministers on the list who were friends with him on weekdays. Futagami Kyosuke originally thought about deleting some of these names as appropriate. After thinking about it all morning, he finally decided not to do so.
Nigami Kyousuke's choice was correct, because Sara had someone else record it. Even if he deleted it, she would know it. If she knew it, she would not trust him as usual in the future.
The word "righteousness" is fulfilled, but loyalty will be a lifelong regret.
Sara browsed through it carefully, then put down the list booklet and asked someone to put it away first. Now is not the time to deal with these people, things always have priorities.
Seeing her asking someone to put the book away, Ergami Kyosuke felt complicated. This person was indeed a calm person, and he might actually have great fortunes in the future. Those ministers are unfaithful, but they can still be used in the current employment situation, but if they are dealt with now, they will not be worth the gain.
"Do you have any official business to attend to after the second god Kyousuke?" Sara stood up and walked to the center of the study.
As a deputy minister, Nigami Kyousuke has a lot of people under his command. It is impossible for him to do everything himself and be too busy. Ergami Kyosuke thought for a while and replied: "Just some trivial matters, nothing important."
It’s not that I occupy a position and have nothing to do, it’s just that the matter is relatively small. Otherwise, civil servants are all human beings. Sara laughed silently: “In that case, would you like to accompany me to the military camp, Kyousuke the Second God?”
Shan Gui was in the military camp and didn't know what was going on these days. General Zuo was busy training his troops and didn't even go to the city to report on the situation. This battle was of great importance, and she had to follow the whole process to feel at ease, so when she saw Kyosuke the Second God was there, she thought of asking him to accompany him to the military camp.
General Zuo has completely surrendered, but after all, their strengths are too unequal. She needs other help around her to prevent her from feeling the same contempt as before. Sara thought that Kyousuke, the second god, was so smart that he should understand.
"Huh?" Sara looked over at the second god Kyosuke who remained silent for a long time.
Kyousuke, the second god, came to his senses and said, "It's my honor."
Not long after Sara arrived at the military camp in great force and informed the soldiers, General Zuo hurried out and saw this scene.
In the past, the weak woman who had to risk her life to block the road now has many people gathered around her. Even the important officials in the court are on her side, and the trip is so grand and majestic.
"Greetings to the city lord!" General Zuo was stunned for a moment, then bowed and saluted.
"Get up, I'm just here today to see what General Zuo needs. If there is anything missing, I can prepare it for you." A master who is good at using language will never hurt others with his words. Not only that, he will also give others A feeling of being cared about.
General Zuo, who had previously been immersed in the fact that he was no longer the most important person in Sara, felt a lot more comfortable now, and the tension in his whole body had relaxed a lot. He asked people to enter the barracks while talking about his troubles.
Kyousuke, the second god, consciously joined General Zuo and stood behind Sara.
General Zuo just glanced at Ergami Kyosuke in surprise, and then told the whole story: "Perhaps the prey we brought back is not fresh. The mountain ghost never eats it but goes out to hunt every day. He doesn't pay attention to him when he comes back from hunting." Soldiers, if this continues, you won’t know how to cooperate in future wars.”
Sara: "..."
He didn't even mention such a big thing to the city before.
