The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

Chapter 367 Unexpected Visitor

Even high altitudes are not without danger. The airspace of an ordinary small country is almost defenseless against the air knights of a big country, but entering the airspace of a big country at will is tantamount to provoking the country's air defense forces and air knights.

But the most dangerous thing is to accidentally enter the attack range of the mage tower. Even if the dragon encounters a well-prepared mage tower, it is easy to stumble.

A high-quality mage tower can increase the mage's spell tenfold. It is entirely possible for a large-scale high-ring magic to become a small forbidden spell after several layers of bonuses. There are quite a few dragons defeated by mages. This is why dragons will A root of basic respect for the caster.

As far as I know, the capitals of all major counties and counties in the Kingdom of Bayer have such air defense areas, and even the slightly more powerful lords will recruit army divisions to build air defense areas. The financial resources of the big lords are not inferior to the treasury of small countries, and there are not a few who can afford the sky knights.

Just as theocracy and kingship are in eternal struggle, so kingship and the autonomy of local lords are always in conflict.

And if the royal family is extremely weak, the local lords will often attack each other first and seize each other's territories and people. Perhaps the reason they use is "that kid in your family didn't invite me for his birthday celebration" "your wife seduced my second brother-in-law" " and other nonsense, but if the royal power loses its authority, these reasons that no one will believe are enough.

If the royal power is weak, civil strife is inevitable, and when a lord who occupies most of the country's power wins. A new royal family should also be born.

And since the new kingship ascended to the throne with strength, it was naturally centralized, and the kingship naturally entered a period of prosperity. But there is no dynasty in the world that never falls, and it is even more impossible for Mingjun to succeed. As long as they still implement the system of enfeoffment and blood inheritance, a new replacement is only a matter of time.

Obviously, this is an unpleasant cycle, but such a social structure allows the struggle and annexation to never stop, while leaving ordinary people under the threat of war. It cannot be denied its contribution to social progress, at least it is a natural exchange mechanism. Kings who are foolish or perverse will eventually fall.

Considering the future development route, I have conducted research on these political systems, but I did not intend to come up with a "Declaration on the Emancipation of the Serfs" or "Dividing the local tyrants and dividing the land". He didn't even intend to carry out in-depth social reforms beyond the law, because at the moment when the territory is vast, the productivity is backward, and the wild monsters are too strong, this kind of system where the lord is fully responsible for the people within his own range seems to be backward, but in fact However, it is the most suitable for the current social situation.

"The whole world is for the public? Everyone should listen to the king? Since it belongs to the royal family, then you go to the royal family to protect you."

The lord's ownership of the territory and the people and the possession of wealth,

It is also the driving force for him to build up his combat power and protect his family and soil, that original chivalry spirit. Didn't it come from the most basic loyalty to the lord to protect the territory?

Nobility comes from the ordinary, and there is nothing wrong with protecting one's own possessions, after the entire era has set a certain tone. The first half step is a genius, and the first step is a fool who will be tied to the stake and grilled.

If a traveler really comes up and establishes a completely centralized power and county system, replacing the lord with a rotating magistrate, what awaits him is definitely not a bumper harvest, but the disintegration of the entire country.

It may take several years for a decree from the central government to reach remote areas, and it is unknown what will happen if the decree from the top reaches the grassroots. The population overload caused by centralization is a problem that cannot be solved in the current era.

Plagues, natural disasters and famines that may be caused by simply too many people living together are unsolvable. After thinking about it for a while, I knew that doing so was tantamount to committing suicide, and that’s how doing bad things with good intentions came about.

Of course, if it is a small country, it is still feasible. If the technology develops to a certain level, urbanization and modernization will be gradually promoted, and medical care, communications, transportation, agriculture, industry, etc. will rise several levels with the industrial revolution. Even if I do nothing, Times will change naturally... It seems that something has been accidentally leaked. Well, I admit that I have been tempted personally, but it is not a matter of overnight to cut off the reincarnation of kingship.

Of course, there are a few exceptions, such as countries with too small territory, religious countries with unified theocracy and kingship, and border countries that are always threatened by foreign invasion. For their own reasons, their regimes are relatively stable, so they have thousands of years. Hundred years of inheritance.

Ahem, I don’t care about him for the time being in the reincarnation of history. Anyway, it has been reincarnated so many times, and this time, I haven’t planned to shout out the slogans “all men are created equal”, “all wealth belongs to everyone”, or What kind of sickle-and-axe party is set up and plans to become the public enemy of the world, how much effort is there, let's look at the present first.

When the Bayer Kingdom is now in a strong period of royal power, many local lords will naturally not attack each other. On the contrary, they will unite to resist the royal family's desire for centralization. Since complete centralization is a dream that cannot be realized under the current conditions, This is a struggle that is destined to have no permanent winner, and the struggle between the two sides will continue forever until a new royal family is born.

Now that Bayer is at the peak of history, Oros can even let other lords send their eldest sons to the capital to "study", and the reorganization of other lords' private soldiers has also achieved certain results, but if you want all The lord is obedient, but it will take at least another hundred years, and he will be able to survive all battles and maintain internal and external chaos. Unless he is the protagonist of the undead who has opened the golden finger, he will definitely not be able to wait.

Although today's Bayer is unified in name, if it is divided according to strict standards, it is still enfeoffed piece by piece. When calculating the combat power of a country, it often refers to the affiliated army of the royal family and the territory of the country, the Royal Knights The regiment is also equal to the national knights, but if it is a large-scale battle, I am afraid that the private army of each lord will be added. After all, it is one of the basic obligations of the lord to respond to the king's call and send private troops to participate in the national war.

Don't underestimate it as a private army, their training and equipment are the foundation of a certain lord's family inheritance. Special equipment and arms are often adapted to local conditions. There are many private armies stronger than the regular army of the kingdom, and it is often due to the restrictions imposed by the royal family on the lord. The nobles who have limited the number of private soldiers will try to win by quality, and it is not without precedent that the average individual combat power far exceeds that of the Royal Knights.

The limit on the number of private soldiers is often related to titles, but there are still ways to take advantage of loopholes such as militias and militia reserves. Although each individual may not seem like a lot, once accumulated, the accumulated combat power of noble private troops in most countries It is several times more than the royal family in order to restrict the royal family. After all, in a sense. The royal family of the feudal kingdom of this era is itself the strongest grand lord in the country.

This is still a normal lord, and if it is a big lord guarding the border, the strength of his troops cannot be restricted, such a big noble. It is also easy to become a new royal candidate.

And along the way, I have also seen how deep the confidence of the Bayer Kingdom is.

Basically, in any area, there will be an empty knight actively following up, or a griffin knight, or a pegasus knight, even a dragon knight, and there is even a spellcaster riding a manticore, or a Squad, or three or two. The air knights, which ordinary small countries can't afford, are the most basic configuration of Bayer's lords. I can still see two towers looming in the clouds.

They saw the blue dragon of Grand Duke Dragonrider in front of them, but they didn't leave directly. They just followed silently until they left the airspace, often at the border, when a new empty cavalry came, and the previous empty cavalry turned back, and this politeness kept a distance. But it's not just for outsiders like us, no one greeted the Grand Duke Dragonrider along the way. This is unusual in its bones.

The Dragon Knights, which nominally only belong to the royal family, still have the right to travel freely in various regions, but these empty knights who follow silently may not be able to stop the Dragon Knights from doing anything, but at least they show an attitude-"This place is mine, You can come, but only within our surveillance range."

This is obviously a bit too much, and it is quite different from what I heard at the beginning. It seems that, as His Majesty's deadline is approaching, these lords have new ideas.

But even if I haven't arrived in the capital, I can guess something. It's nothing more than too many princes. This civil war seems inevitable. The authority of Baier will naturally be greatly reduced, and the era when Bayer's lord oppressed the royal family more than 40 years ago seems to be possible again.

The defense against the dragon knight may not only be a political statement, but also has some practical significance.

"Who knows if you're here to record deployments and military deployments in preparation for possible wars that may follow."

As for us outsiders? We were not interrogated at all. Perhaps, because of this guide, we were also regarded as members of the Dragon Knights, and our new partner also walked with us smoothly.

New partner? Well, didn't I just say something casually before, and suddenly there was a tornado? In fact, it was such a coincidence that the rampant storm reappeared in front of us as a familiar figure—Camdiran, the god of wind elements.

"Your Excellency Roland, I have come here specially to find you. I want to talk to you about some very important matters."

After killing Emdilokan, he ran away... hurriedly left, but now he took the initiative to appear in front of me. He obviously had something to look for me, and he was different from the little bugs and stupid mortals in the past, but he obviously Keep your posture low.

These ancient existences are so realistic, if you don't show your achievements to prove that you are an equal existence, they won't look at people seriously.

Of course I'm very happy to see Camdil'an, after all, I'm looking for the god of the wind elemental god, kill him... just ask him, maybe there will be something to gain.

But after looking carefully, I had no choice but to give up a certain backup plan. After all, what the opponent appeared in front of me was just an avatar. Forget about dropping things.

But now on the way, it is obviously not the time to chat, so I just asked him to follow, but the strange thing is, he was eager to say something, so I asked casually, and he was overjoyed and said directly. asked.

"Your Excellency, what I'm talking about is what you did in Oran, the blasphemous priest and anti-palaval who expelled divine power..."

"What? Blasphemy priest? Anti paladin?"

------------------

While the battle of Titans was taking place in the theater southwest of Bair, amazing results were also achieved in the naval battle of Oran.

The cooperation between the Four Spirit Sword Envoys sent by Renee and the funeral fleet has achieved amazing results. The battleships are rampant, and the Sea Clan who have been dispersed will be harvested by the Four Spirit Sword Envoys divided into three teams. The progress has achieved remarkable results.

In fact, this set of cooperative tactics between the tactical squad and the fleet was originally used to cooperate with the Northern Light and the seven super-heavy warships in its fleet, and it is just right to take it out now.

In actual combat, the problems of the team's tactics were also exposed. For example, the individual's combat power was too weak to dare to fight recklessly, and some equipment had many problems such as water leakage and electric shock due to the poor manufacturing process. increase.

But Renee's command is still very appropriate. With the cover and support of the Aurora Knights with extremely high average combat power, Dong Lan's battle results are remarkable. Although some equipment is lost, the loss of personnel is not much.

Although the reinforcements of the Sea Clan arrived, they still couldn't stop the slow charge of the black funeral fleet. The two sides entered a meat grinder-style war of attrition, but one side blocked everything. We are losing ground.

At this point in the battle, although the human side suffered a lot of losses, it still achieved the strategic goal set at the beginning - to reach the dock area where the underwater base is located.

When they got there, the fleet began to turn sideways and entered the defense state. The divers and the ocean were ready to start underwater operations, but an accident completely reversed the situation on the entire battlefield, and it also made Camdir safe and sound. I found Roland. After all, what was shown in this war is of great significance to an ancient god of elements like him.

"Those dark elves, take action! They have reversed the situation on the entire battlefield!" (To be continued)
