"However, your majesty, you asked us to make statistics a few days ago. At this time, it has been basically calculated."
In front of him, Patton looked serious and reported to ADIS.
Hearing his words, ADIS turned back and looked at him, "what's the result?"
Patton came forward and bowed: "after your majesty ordered to count the number of knights and sacrifices in China, with the active cooperation of the local church, the data on the surface have been counted."
"Among them, the rest of the Knights are just the high priest level. At present, there are nine registered knights and none of the sky knights."
He looked at ADIS in front of him and said, "however, these nine high priests are from northern tribes, including the Pope and the chief Knight kuruba."
Hearing this, Yates nodded, indicating that he was quite satisfied.
This data, naturally, can not be completely counted, but it is close to the real data.
"In that case, the progress of that matter can also be made."
He said so.
Hearing what he said, bill and Patton looked right and understood that the key was coming and listened attentively.
"A few years ago, I ordered special sacrifices to spread the belief in the God of nature among the army, and set up special camps for those selected officers to practice fighting spirit, so as to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army."
"In terms of future achievements, the effect is also very good."
He stepped forward, looked up and said, "but it's not enough!"
"This problem began to appear when we fought with the king's court before. The knight regiment of the king's court is too large, and there are a steady stream of knights. Both the number and quality of knights far exceed us."
"Therefore, if you want to face off with the king's Court on the battlefield in the future, or even attack the south, powerful knights and sacrifices must be indispensable."
Hearing this, bill and Barton gradually realized that they had some understanding.
Bill stood up and said to Adams, "Your Majesty, do you want to train the officers in the army again?"
But seeing him say so, ADIS shook his head: "not the officers in the army, but the whole army."
"Before, due to the limited consumption of food and other materials and other constraints, we only had time to carry out special training for military officers."
"But now, it is possible to start fighting spirit training for ordinary soldiers and send special sacrifices for training."
As soon as these words came out, they were shocked.
Bill was better. Although he was surprised in his eyes, he didn't say anything.
But Patton's reaction was even more intense. He stood up with some hesitation and said to Yates: "Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with opening the precious fighting spirit practice method to ordinary soldiers?"
"With such a huge base, if fighting spirit is open to these ordinary people, sooner or later these fighting spirit methods will spread out and be stolen by the surrounding nobles and even the king's court in the south."
This is also a real problem. Originally, even if the officers were open to fighting, the reason why the officers were officers was that most of these officers came from the nobility, and a few who did not come from the nobility were also elites, which could be easily accepted by the original nobility.
Moreover, there are only a few officers in the army, so they can barely be controlled.
But if it is spread to the whole army, the concept is different.
First of all, most soldiers are just ordinary people, even born slaves, and are not accepted by the nobility. Moreover, under such a huge base, there is bound to be a loss and spread the decentralized fighting method.
But for this problem, ADIS just smiled and didn't care.
"What if it leaks out?"
He looked at Patton and said, "first of all, for ordinary soldiers, we naturally can't leak out the whole set of fighting spirit, but only distribute part of the foundation first."
"At most, this level can only make the practitioners reach the critical point of birth fighting spirit, and can not even become knights. How attractive can it be to those nobles?"
"When these soldiers have made great achievements, or have learned to the current limit within the specified time, they can open up the subsequent fighting spirit to them. Even when they are promoted to a great knight, they can choose a fighting spirit skill to open up part of the earth knight to them."
However, when he said this, Patton rarely hung a hesitant expression under the stage, but he didn't know what to say.
And ADIS looked at him like this, didn't speak, just smiled.
He knew in his heart that this order had actually touched the interests of traditional nobles such as Patton.
In the past, the reason why nobles were nobles, in addition to their own boasted noble blood, in fact, they relied on the monopoly of knowledge and the mastery of extraordinary power.
Now, what Yates has to do is to break this long-term monopoly and spread his extraordinary power to the people. Naturally, it will make these traditional aristocratic classes dissatisfied, and even instinctively want to oppose it.
"But what does this have to do with me?" Adams turned and walked quietly to the throne standing behind him.
"At present, the strength of the army can help me defeat strong enemies and unify the world; in terms of gods, the strength of believers can be fed back to the gods of faith and give more blessings to the gods; in terms of the world, the strength of living creatures can make the world strong and gather more resources."
"Since it's good for me in any way, why should I worry?"
He thought so, and as the idea passed, his heart gradually calmed down.
In fact, to some extent, this is also a problem with different perspectives and heights. For Barton and others, they can only see in front of them. As for Adams, all his thoughts were from the perspective of gods and the world.
In fact, in his view, the reason why the world seems so declining is also related to the old order of the world.
In the past, there were ancestral gods on the city states. The ancestral God is high above all else. While enjoying the blood sacrifice, he also consumes many creatures in the world. The power consumed for thousands of years is unimaginable. However, the practices of these nobles have also made the people miserable, and even limited the spread of extraordinary power, but also made the world unable to progress.
After all, the power of a world is actually the collection and accumulation of creatures in a world. From this point of view, although the ancestral gods and nobles played a role in resisting the erosion of foreign demons and gods on the one hand, they also hindered the progress of the world and prevented the world from being promoted.
With his thoughts gradually flowing, around him, a little force of the world gradually shakes. It seems that a new source force is coming, with a killing opportunity, followed by the cry of countless dead creatures.
Sensing this source force, suddenly, a familiar feeling hit, which surprised ADIS slightly.
"This is that the world's source force is fluctuating. Do you want me to clean up all the obstacles that hinder the development of the world?"
He felt the source force that began to diffuse around him, and thought in his heart.
In his body, with the gradual influx of source forces, several killing gods suddenly shine, directly absorb all the source forces around him, and then condense into a somewhat illusory and incomplete clergy, which seems to be responding to the killing opportunity of the world and launching killing and looting, which will hinder all the people in the world to kill and clean.
···
On that day, with the order of ADIS, a new decree was issued.
Yates ordered the establishment of fighting spirit and divination schools, which were stationed by some senior knights and sacrificial priests to teach soldiers in the army.
As this order was issued, there was a sound of horror in the Duchy of Yadi Syria, and almost all the nobles were crazy against it. Its momentum was far greater than the previous massive rebellions and spread to the king's court in the south.
For a time, the rebellion that had gradually subsided came up one after another and started a new round of rebellion.
However, in this process, many nobles were silent, just silent.
After the suppression of the number theory of ADIS, and even the compulsory banning of all the original troops, the power of the nobility was already very weak in the Duchy of ADIS Syria. In addition, several previous rebellions were suppressed, and they were unable to resist Adams at all.
However, because of this order, the number of nobles who fled south to the imperial court increased a lot, which made Yates confiscate a large number of territories.
A few months later, it's autumn.
Countless people were surprised to find that this year's harvest has almost doubled or doubled over the past.
Because a large number of churches were built this year and a large number of sacrificial priests settled in various places to preach. With the cooperation of local officials, this year, the sacrificial priests have demonstrated their divine skills in various places, such as enhancing fertility, plant communication and giving birth to plants. Although they do not play a great role in combat, they really show their incomparably powerful effects under the current situation of large-scale construction.
Under the influence of these magic arts, not only did the pests and diseases that had multiplied in previous years disappear, but even the fertility of the land had to be greatly enhanced. Therefore, the yield was naturally much higher than in the past.
Compared with the surrounding families who did not receive the blessing of natural sacrifice, this output naturally made these leaders kneel down and pray frantically to the God of nature, and their faith spread all at once.
Especially in the eastern and western regions, with the stationing of natural sacrifice, a large number of leading people converted and began to believe in the God of nature.
Although these new believers are not as pious as the original believers, with the deepening of prayer time, their natural faith will gradually deepen. Moreover, with the sudden increase of so many believers, the power of faith is also accumulating madly, which makes the natural God noumenon in the virtual air much stronger.
