Black Iron Crown

The war was completely over, and Leiner felt that there was no possibility of a second war for at least a year or two.

The militia system has already begun to be established. Several villages form a militia team together. After enough time for training, they will be selected and the outstanding people will be absorbed into the army.

However, Reiner is still conducting conscription. This is his last large-scale conscription before the militia system is completely complete.

He will absorb 1,200 people into his army to form a standing regular army of six regiments.

Even if their combat effectiveness is a problem, there will be no battles to fight for at least one or two years, and they have plenty of time for training.

The turmoil in the Northern Territory is over, and Leiner dealt heavy blows to those vassals who fled the battle. This kind of thing is very serious.

Therefore, Leiner asked these vassals to give up a huge right.

That is, their right to formulate basic laws in their own territories has disappeared.

They must respect the basic laws formulated by Reiner, and they can still make decisions on some minor details, but the main laws must follow Reiner's formulation.

In fact, the former Fort Moreland also needed to abide by the basic laws of the empire, but because he wanted to win over Rainer, he made his own laws and no one cared about them.

This is a good way to increase control over your vassals. Since they almost lost the war by fleeing the battle, they must pay the price.

They also knew this, so although they were somewhat dissatisfied with Reiner's actions, no one objected.

And for those two vassals who refused to respond to his call, Leiner showed no mercy.

They originally thought that Leiner was bound to fail and die on the battlefield. They firmly believed in this, so they dared to reject Leiner's call.

But now, Lena has returned safely, and their hard days are coming.

These two people were deprived of half of the territory and residents by Reiner, and used it to reward other vassals who did not retreat.

Reiner played very well in drawing and suppressing at the same time.

Politics does require balance, but only with loyalty.

It is understandable that political opinions do not fight each other, but if there is no loyalty, then there is no need to continue to exist.

So no one is dissatisfied with Reiner's series of practices.

In addition, he also asked Samuza to move his entire clan to live on the grassland of the former Agul tribe, and the huge grassland they originally occupied became Leiner's possession.

Leiner has always been concerned about how to use this pasture. He doesn’t need to raise horses for the time being. The intermediate-level horse farm can already meet his needs for war horses, and he doesn’t need it for grazing cattle and sheep. Leiner plans to raise cattle and sheep in captivity. It is more efficient.

However, if we simply reclaim some land as arable land, the population under Leiner's command is not large enough. He can't even cultivate such a large piece of land in the northern border. It is really impossible to mobilize the population to reclaim the grassland. up.

Reiner let out a long sigh, and in the end he could only choose a method that was barely reasonable.

He spent 3,000 meritorious services to redeem two nomadic characters with three-star ratings from the system.

It is planned to put these two people in the grassland, and canonize them so that they can establish their rule there.

Anyway, the loyalty of the characters exchanged from the system is very high, and Reiner is not worried about loyalty.

Give them but a few people around them, and throw them on the grassland to collect scattered but herdsmen to form a tribe. This is Leiner's method.

Insufficient population has become his biggest constraint, but with a population of 500,000, he dares to develop and control the grassland.

There is really no way. There are only 170,000 people on such a large land in the northern border. It is like sprinkling a spoonful of salt in a pool. There is no way to develop the potential here.

For such a large area, there would be at least tens of millions of people in the future celestial dynasty, but now there are only a few hundred thousand. This is helpless.

Don't worry about these troubles, Reiner has other things to do.

With so many meritorious deeds in his pocket, it would be a waste if he didn’t spend them. Even though Reiner had thrown out more than 7,000 meritorious deeds through a series of operations, he still has more than 34,000 meritorious deeds left.

He opened the system panel to find what he needed like shopping.

"Arquebus...too expensive, no need!"

"Mo Dao? I'm sorry I can't use it!"

"A breech-loading flintlock?"

"Can't afford it...forget it!"

"Jenny Machine!!!"

Reiner's eyes swept over, and the three big characters "Jenny Machine" appeared on his cornea impressively.

He was so happy that he almost flew up, if this thing was exchanged by himself, it would be like a godsend!

White sugar? Step aside, table salt? Step aside.

The combination of these two does not necessarily make money with this Jenny machine!

Rainer himself has a huge pasture, which can raise a large number of sheep, and then produce wool thread to weave into clothing.

Jenny! A great invention that promoted an era! At that time, Reiner will be able to smash all the enemies to death just by relying on money!

But when he looked at the price again, he couldn't laugh...

"Ten... eighteen thousand?"

Reiner stared, the excitement and excitement in his heart had already disappeared completely.

A spinning jenny sold for 180,000 merits? Why don't you grab it?

What is the concept of 180,000 meritorious deeds?

That is to say, even if Leiner killed all the people in the northern border, he still wouldn't be able to gather the merits he needed!

After thinking about it, Leiner calmed down a bit, and it was normal. This machine can almost be said to have created the beginning of the industrial revolution, and the tragedy of sheep cannibalism is also inseparable from it.

Reiner's current era is similar to the early Middle Ages in his previous life. There are still five or six hundred years before the industrial revolution. It is normal for products that cross the era to be more expensive.

Reiner put away his unrealistic fantasies and began to search for what he needed again.

"Mine bomb? It's too high-tech!"

"Firing pin primer? Just kidding!"

"Flying shuttle? What is that thing?"

Soon, Lena reacted.

"Flying shuttle!"

At the beginning, Reiner didn't take it seriously when he saw the word "Flying Shuttle", because it looked like two pieces of wood.

But in a blink of an eye he remembered.

The flying shuttle was an efficient spinning tool before the Jenny machine, and its efficiency was also high, at least much higher than the current linen technology.

Looking at the price again, three thousand merit points?

Reiner was a little curious, but he quickly understood the reason.

The Jenny machine is a mechanical machine, while the shuttle is just a tool. The principles of the two are very different, so the price is also very different.

At best, the flying shuttle can only be regarded as the top creation of the manual era, while the Jenny machine is the beginning of the merit era.

"Three thousand points of merit?"

Reiner waved his hand and bought it!

After deducting 3,000 points of merit, Reiner didn't feel regretful at all, but felt a bit of fear. Fortunately, he reacted at the critical moment, otherwise he would have passed the shuttle. ...
