Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

At the shooting range, as the target in the distance was burned through, Lowry grumbled, flicked the ray gun in his hand and said, "No, although the firing rate has increased, the overheating problem is too big. In comparison, the gains are not worth the losses."

White, the instructor of Winter Castle, looked at the ray gun in Lowry's hand and swallowed.

"Want it?"

Lowry looked at White with a smirk on his face.

"Call me good brother and I'll give you my ray gun."

White was stunned, and was about to blurt out "good brother", but he immediately clenched his teeth and lowered his head, as if warning himself, White, oh White, how could you be so depraved? You are responsible for the remaining troops of Lars.

But after looking at the burnt target in the distance, White couldn't help but reach out his hand again.

Yolanda on the side couldn't stand it any longer. She didn't know what the two bearded uncles were talking about, so she simply said, "If you want the ray gun, just tell the Lord directly that you don't want it. I heard that the Gray and White Collars are already researching new ray guns, so they will always have old ones that can be used."

"Now it's the Governor General."

Lowry corrected.

"And you don't understand, this isn't about a ray gun, this is about Lars' army."

Yolanda shook her head, a little confused. In her opinion, since the lord, oh no, the governor, is the head of the Lars family, shouldn't the army also serve the governor? Is there anything wrong with this?

After all, Yolanda, who was born in Farson Town, has lived in a very conservative knight family since she was a child, and the Knights of Farson Town have been just a supporting role most of the time. So since Jefferson voted for Lind, it is no surprise that the Knights of Farson Town were incorporated and received the same training as the Gray-Collar First Army.

Although it was hard work, for the Knights Temperament, most of whom only held pitchforks and were not real knights, the treatment was far better than before. Of course, some people who did not meet the standards withdrew from the Knights Temperament, but after all, their number was not large, and these people could only be said to have returned to normal life and devoted themselves to the great construction.

But Lars's remaining troops in Winterhold are different. Originally, Winterhold was a place where soldiers and civilians were integrated. Even now, with the help of Sean and the Great Elder, a large number of unqualified people have been screened out, and the remaining troops still have thousands of people.

The size has completely surpassed that of the gray-collar army.

If it is not handled properly, it can easily lead the gray-collar army astray.

Not to mention that Lars's remaining army was a completely feudal army.

Although Lars' military discipline was relatively strict, and the remaining army was the army of Winterhold, their daily pay was not deducted, so they did not have the bad habit of looting, and they were able to withstand the attack of Doug Lars's coalition forces at that time.

But compared with the armies of the nobles, they are only more humane.

The lack of bad habits of looting as a whole does not mean that individuals do not have them. The old officer class, which consists of knights as the main body and retainers as the auxiliary, has no control over the soldiers under them. Looting by soldiers has even become an unwritten rule in this world.

The current gray-collar military discipline not only requires daily training, but also prohibits looting. If you steal a chicken from a fellow villager, you must compensate and apologize. Many Winterhold soldiers feel that they have been serving in vain.

It is even more difficult to get them to abide by the three major disciplines and eight points of attention.

But the real problem lies with the knight class in the army.

Laurie was originally a veteran border soldier. After taking his former team of veterans to visit the Winterhold army, he found that these soldiers did not want to abide by discipline. After all, the soldiers' welfare benefits were very high, which made the veterans who originally had these bad habits feel embarrassed to go out to plunder again.

Moreover, no one among the gray-collar workers regards the soldiers as peasants. When the people see the soldiers wearing medals on their chests, they respect them from the bottom of their hearts, which makes the young soldiers envious.

You know, even the Knights have never been respected in this way, and those medals are not only obtained by knights and nobles.

The little kid named Darcy, whose hair hadn't even grown out yet, was awarded the bronze marksmanship medal for his excellent archery skills. When he walked on the street, his nostrils were pointed to the sky.

Many young soldiers were not convinced and thought that if they had such equipment, they would be able to kill more enemies than the enemy.

The real problem lies with the knight class.

After all, the newly-born officers completely replaced the ecological position of the knight class. Lind's original plan was to disrupt all the soldiers of Winterburg and have them led by officers who came from gray and white collar backgrounds. If that was still not enough, he would promote soldiers from the First Army to become officers.

But under the leadership and guidance of these knights, officers of ordinary origin often find it difficult to truly control the army.

White also didn't want the army belonging to Lars to change its name to Roll. Even after seeing the gray-collar army's armament, he was still reluctant to accept it. Lind could not understand some of the feudal knights' ideas.

After the negotiations failed, White followed Lowry to the latest equipment testing site. In the site, there was a knight wearing full body plate armor and carrying a backpack on his back. There was a ray gun and a percussion gun on the backpack, and there was a sharp blade fixed on each arm armor.

The soldiers in the field used ray guns to fire molten rays at the tempered targets. After the rapid shooting ended and the barrel began to smoke, the soldiers inserted the molten rays back into the slot on the side of the backpack. The condensation magic array on the slot was activated and began to cool down.

The soldier then took out his percussion rifle and fired continuously while taking advantage of this gap. Although the firing rate was not as fast as the Molten Ray, its power was not inferior. It was even more effective when the target did not have any strengthening runes, and could directly break through the magic barrier.

Finally, the soldier demonstrated the hand blade on the arm armor.

As the soldier made a fist, the retracted hand blade on the arm armor ejected, and the edge of the hand blade began to appear a burnt red color.

The blade on the other side of the arm armor made a chain saw sound.

No matter which hand blade was used, it looked like it could cut through iron like mud, which made White extremely envious.

Laurie was just trying to take this opportunity to brag to the knight master, but suddenly he heard a voice that made Laurie's hair stand on end.

"Laurie!"

This sound is like going back to your childhood when you missed dinner because you were too busy playing, and your mother called you by your full name when you got home.

A woman who looked like the head maid walked over quickly.

"You're going to use the lord's... the governor's budget to do this? Didn't I warn you not to make it into your so-called hand blade? It's troublesome to replace and even more troublesome to repair. The governor clearly said that it would be fine to make it into a normal saber style."

Hearing this voice, Lowry shrank back a circle, and immediately ran forward to flatter him: "Master Lila, isn't it true that practice makes perfect? ​​Don't I have to try it to know whether this arm armor-style hand blade is useful? This is all normal adjustment, normal adjustment."

"You really don't want to make a toy yourself?"

Lila held the report in her hand and glanced at Laurie.

"That's not true!"

Lowry stood at attention immediately.

"Then tell me, what did you find out?"

Lila lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Laurie. Instead, she started flipping through the lab report in her hand.

"At least the chainsaw sword won't work. Not to mention installing it on the gauntlet, even if it's used as a sword, it's very troublesome to maintain. The cost and damage rate are frighteningly high. If you want to increase stability, you have to increase the size. Unlike the fusion sword, it is efficient and easy to use, and the blade module can be replaced at any time. It perfectly meets the lord's modular requirements, but..."

"only?"

Lila was almost at the end of her report.

"It's just that if you want to use it repeatedly, it will be a little difficult, and the cost of the materials will be a little bit higher."

Laurie made a slight gesture, but after reading the report, Lila sighed deeply.

"Forget about repeated use. Use disposable materials. The territory cannot afford alchemical materials that can withstand repeated melting and cutting arrays."

Lowry nodded and continued, "Although the chainsaw sword is more troublesome to maintain, the nuns seem to like it very much, and it is more advantageous than the molten sword in some situations. Can we produce some more specifically for the nuns to use?"

Lila made some comments on the report and said, "The Governor will pay for the nun corps himself, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay, okay, so is the armament matter settled?"

"I'll go and finalize it with the Governor. At least it's within the budget, so there shouldn't be any problem."

After saying that, Lila looked up at White.

White was a little puzzled. Although Lowry was a little slick, he was currently the de facto leader of the Gray and White Collar Army. Why was he fawning on someone who looked like the head maid?

Lars's man would not bow and scrape to a woman. Thinking of this, White took a step forward and met Lila's eyes, ready to demonstrate to Laurie what a real man is, with an attitude of "I'm not going to let you down."

Upon seeing this, Lowry immediately pulled White aside and whispered in White's ear, "She is in charge of military expenses."

"Humph, so what if he's in charge of military expenses? Our Lars knights don't fight for money."

But before White and Lowry could finish their whispers, Lila said directly: "Report the military expenditure and weapons of your Winterhold army. The Governor said that your equipment and weapons should be updated."

Hearing this, White, who was halfway standing up, suddenly lost his momentum and his height shrank to the same height as Lowry.

"Okay miss."
