Grey Fort, No Winterfell.

The Castle Conference Hall.

With the growing number of administrative departments, the hall that was once enough to be used is now somewhat small, and the main officials of many departments can only move small stools and sit behind their masters and vice ministers.And more registrars and assistants had to stand against the wall, and nearly two hundred people crowded the room tightly.

It seems necessary to build a special hall in the castle area to meet the needs of various future meetings, Roland thought, this is only the high-level officials of Winter City, when the managers of other cities in the kingdom come to the new king to declare their duties, I am afraid that the first floor of the castle is full of estimates.

After the idea was recorded in the book, he gently clapped his hands, and the conference hall immediately quieted down.

"It must be clear to all of you that the torch operation, which lasted for nearly ten months, has been a complete success.Now that our footprints have extended to the fertile plains hundreds of kilometers from Winterfell, the threat from the devil has been completely swept away – from this moment on, the west of the winter is no longer the barbaric land that was once a difficult and dangerous place, but a fertile territory that can provide us with abundant supplies!”Rolandton, raised the volume, "Yes, this plain is wider than the four kingdoms combined, will be the main development direction of the gray castle in the next hundred years!"

There was a thunderous applause in the hall.

The expansion of the territory is the most important achievement of the king, and it is also the easiest way for officials to obtain benefits, even ordinary people, and they can also share a cup in the great development.Now suddenly there is a territory large enough to accommodate several gray castles, the meaning of which is naturally self-evident, no matter how to praise it.

"I am afraid that the title of the "four kingdoms" will become history in a few years," Barov laughed with his beard, "they are too far from the gray castle, no matter in terms of volume or strength."

“If history books and biographies were still written as before, I would be laughed at for a later.”

“How about a big three?”

"The three little kingdoms are also too mouthful, or it is more appropriate to have a new title."

"I think the Empire is good."

The ministers were discussing eagerly, and the atmosphere at the long table seemed a little high for a moment.

Roland did not deliberately stop, but set aside a blank time, let them enjoy the rhyme of victory, before pulling the topic back to the right thing, "but I hope you realize that this victory is only the beginning, not the end!"The expulsion of the devil from the fertile plains won a relatively safe living space, which does not mean that they will stop and give up their invasion of mankind.The real threat is the legendary battle of God’s will, and it is only after the red moon that the enemy will reveal all its tusks!In order for that day to come, the kingdom must now be well prepared.”

"In other words, not only can you not have the slightest slackness, but you have to take a double effort, you understand?"

“Yes, your majesty!”

And the people roared.

Roland looked around the hall for a week, then nodded to the nighting-laine beside him.

The latter turned and opened the curtain hanging on the wall.

The original position of the West Side map was replaced by a huge blackboard, and the blackboard was only one word: people.

"That's what I want."Roland said in a word.

The West is stable, internal affairs are unified, the army is back, and his people are available, and he has too many plans to implement, but none of them are more important than increasing the population.

In order to promote the policy as soon as possible, he even put the war summary and other matters behind.

It can be said that the population has become the biggest bottleneck restricting the development of winterless cities.

If the First Army in Operation Torch had an armored force, even the most rudimentary chariots, they could fester the devil’s anti-ambush trap.

Although there are a lot of reliability problems with the completion of the first generation of piston machines, for the war, these are the details, and there are and no problems.

Roland is not unaware of this, but the production capacity of Winterfell has reached its limit.

Whether it is steel production or the production capacity of each plant.

A decisive battle basically consumed 90% of the accumulated shells.

A trans-plain railway uses steel reserves for seven or eighties.

Agra's cooling separation method gradually did not take the chemical plant to make acid.

The production line of individual grenades also occupies a part of the already overstretched explosive output.

It can be said that Winterfell has touched the ceiling in many directions.

Expanding production requires people.

The need for new production projects is needed.

Turning ideas and drawings into reality requires multiple departments to work with a large number of people to complete.

The population of Winterfell is still growing steadily, and it has now crossed the 200,000 mark, which is an incredible number compared to other cities, and if it is in another ten years, it will inevitably become the core of the entire continent, and the population will exceed one million.

Had it not been for the unexpected turn of the Northern Expedition, he would have accepted the result, but the fact was that the devil's actions deviated from everyone's predictions, and although the reason was not clear, Roland felt a little uneasiness - even if the enemy gathered a large army, it was incommendable to kill in Takilla and the First Army, causing more than half the casualties of the soldiers, and it took more than half a year to take the city, which is more reassuring than it is now.

Long-term combat is a plan written in the plan.

But the devil did not do that.

The departure of strategic intent means that in some unseen places, the situation has changed, and the uneasiness of this unknown makes him no longer satisfied with the current growth rate.The return of the army led him to decide to take some extraordinary measures to shorten the process.

“Strictily, this has always been the focus of the Executive Office,” Barov replied, “according to statistics, the influx of foreign populations has not stopped, but the trend is still rising steadily, and it is expected to double in five years—”

“I can’t wait five years,” Roland interrupted, “and if I could, I hope to achieve, or even exceed, this goal within this year.”

People can’t take a cold breath.

“200,000 a year?“It is difficult, my majesty, to achieve...” The President hesitated, “to achieve what you call the inflow trend, a migration of this magnitude may not occur unless there is a disturbance or famine.”

“You’re talking about natural change, and I’m talking about executive orders — if enforcement is implemented, that’s not a very difficult goal to achieve.In a nutshell, this long-term plan can be divided into three parts.”

Roland held out three fingers and said in turn.

“—Recitable migration, cross-border recruitment, and encouragement of childbearing.That's what you're going to do next."
