System: Build My Own Territory

Chapter 863: Chapter 270: Profession System and Reassignment

War will trigger a massive demand for weapons, armor, provisions, and other military supplies.

If merchants can supply these materials in time, they are sure to earn substantial profits!

Furthermore.

They can also establish long-term cooperation with certain Great Lords or Nobility, providing a stable supply of resources!

After the war ends, due to the spread of conflict, the Empire will surely need large-scale reconstruction.

They can still provide massive amounts of building materials, tools, furniture, and various other supplies.

They can even participate in infrastructure projects.

...

Walking on the way back to the castle, Lynn slightly furrowed his brows.

He knows that the battle for Imperial Authority is far from him and his territory.

However, it is closely related to him!

Once the war for Imperial Authority starts, the military factions of Mitchell and Caesar will certainly oppose each other.

If war breaks out, the entire order of the Karedi Empire will collapse in an instant.

As they vie for Imperial Authority, it will undoubtedly trigger chain reactions across the land of the Karedi Empire!

Lords from across the regions will choose to support different forces based on their interests, forming military factions.

Either that.

Seizing the opportunity amidst chaos to withhold taxes, expand armed forces, and no longer obey the commands of Imperial Authority.

Ultimately leading to the intensification of territorial fragmentation within the Empire.

Merchants will find it difficult to continue transporting goods to his territory!

Moreover, the demand for everyday necessities in the market will increase, and prices will inevitably rise.

He cannot conveniently purchase or trade for more goods.

Even worse.

If a nearby Lord with strong military power learns about the three mines in his territory.

They will not hesitate to send troops to attack his territory!

They no longer need to consider the orders previously issued by the Emperor of the Empire or the Great Lord!

Thinking of this.

The previously slightly diminished sense of crisis once again enveloped Lynn.

He must arm the soldiers in his territory completely before the flames of war reach his land.

To arm the soldiers, he must speed up the production in the handicraft industry on his territory.

Lynn turned to the guard beside him and said.

"Summon Ehrelo, Yimini, Colin, Jose, Rose, and Wesley, all six to the castle."

Several guards heard the command and promptly answered.

Then, they retreated and left.

Going separately to the handicraft workshop district and the army camp in the forest.

After giving instructions, Lynn returned to the castle.

In the guest hall.

Kuisi had already arranged dinner and was waiting.

With the service of Kuisi and several maids, Lynn finished his dinner.

Sitting on the lord’s throne at the back.

While resting.

He pondered how to cope with the upcoming war for Imperial Authority!

First.

The crucial thing is undoubtedly improving the military strength within the territory.

The current armed forces in his territory consist of only four thousand soldiers.

Especially among these four thousand soldiers, nearly a thousand are recruits recently enlisted as soldiers.

It’s necessary for Rose to speed up the training intensity and efficiency of the soldiers.

Otherwise, when faced with a large-scale enemy force attacking the city walls.

These soldiers can’t even wield their weapons.

Not to mention defending the city and killing enemies, just swinging their weapons a few times will exhaust them!

In addition to training soldiers, the soldiers also need armor and weapons for outfitting.

Secondly, the production in the handicraft workshops.

Whether it’s the armor and weapons produced by the Blacksmith Workshop and Textile Workshop.

Or the large equipment crafted by the Woodwork Workshop.

Or the standard longbows and crossbows made by the Bow and Arrow Workshop.

Production efficiency must be accelerated!

Even with the most advanced scientific technology in his territory.

If it cannot be manufactured and applied in reality.

It all amounts to mere paper talk.

Before the intel about Charlemagne VI being assassinated came.

He was considering letting the three thousand townsmen settle in once the expansion of the Red Brick House area for their accommodation was completed.

Then deploy them into the territory’s infrastructure construction.

But now, he has to change his mindset.

With the territory facing imminent crisis, infrastructure must be temporarily shelved.

He needs to assign all three thousand townsmen into production in the handicraft workshops!

Excluding the production and construction within his territory.

Various external factors of the territory also require his consideration.

The current military strength of the territory is naturally unable to expand against the Lords nearby amidst the collapse of order.

What he can do.

Is rely on the fortress-like city walls, guarding them, and continuously developing the production and construction within the territory at full speed.

Even for Morgan Town, which recently received recognition and the certification document from the Kakasong City Church.

If faced with a crisis, he can afford to abandon it!

Because.

Given Morgan Town’s open and easily attackable geographical conditions.

Plus, the lack of sufficient labor force.

Added to that the absence of enough soldiers for control.

With his current military power, he is fundamentally unable to fully control Morgan Town.

Rather than spreading resources thinly and worrying everywhere, it’s better to make reasonable trade-offs.

All focus of development can only be centered on his existing territory!

For Morgan Town, his sole expectation now is...

To harvest the crops that the Manor Lord had planted previously before the flames of war reach Morgan Town.

No matter how many crops he can gather from those fields.

As far as he’s concerned, it’s all an unexpected bonus!
