Age of Empires From Scratch

As long as there is no real succession to the throne, many things will not be justified. The Kingdom of Lordaeron always has a feeling of restraint when dealing with various matters.

Because of this, the ministers, including the regent Fording, demanded that the King City of Lordaeron be repaired as soon as possible, even if only the main road, some blocks, and the palace could be repaired. bit ceremony.

Otherwise, today's Jialia lacks authority in issuing orders, and cannot issue any really useful policies.

"So, Lordaeron's Royal City is almost repaired?"

"Thanks to Digger's help some time ago."

During David's absence, Fording lent several Diggers to the Kingdom of Lordaeron. It was with the help of Diggers that the repair speed of the King City of Lordaeron was accelerated, and now it has begun to continue. The preparations for the ceremony are underway.

"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet! Grand Duke of Glamorgan!"

When I came here last time, Fording heard that David became the Grand Duke, which means that Winter City has become a principality. David has nothing to do with a real king except that he has not become a king in name. difference.

"One step closer to reaching our goal."

"Thanks."

David accepted Fording's congratulations with a smile. It's time like this, and there is no need to pretend to be a loyal minister of Tilan. He no longer hides his true thoughts.

Since he began to order and issue announcements announcing that the Duchy of Winter would not use the enfeoffment system, many people guessed the Duke of Glamorgan's true thoughts.

Although the Duchy of Winter does not engage in enfeoffment and cannot become a lord if he is loyal to the duke, it does not mean that he cannot become a nobleman.

Judging from the previously announced treatment of knights, the Duke will not treat his meritorious ministers badly.

Therefore, David's subordinates are still full of motivation. They are working hard to make progress, waiting with full anticipation for the day when the Duchy of Winter becomes the Kingdom of Winter.

"It's a pity that Mark hasn't come back yet."

"It should be soon! You can return to Winter City at the latest in winter."

The first few people who came to Cold Winter City were Fording, Laura, and Mark. They spent the longest time together and naturally had the closest relationship.

But as Fording returned to the Kingdom of Lordaeron; Mark boarded the 'flight' back to Earth, and only Laura often stayed in Winter City.

"Sometimes I often think that if I can spend the rest of my life in Winter City, it should be a very good choice."

"Ha!" David didn't wait for Fording to say more, and directly shattered the dream of this legendary paladin: "Don't dream, if you stay in Winter City, you will definitely become the number one paladin in Winter , commanded countless paladins to fight north and south, and became the founding father of the empire."

"..." Fording was speechless. Although what David said was the truth, is it really good to say it so bluntly? He used to think that if David wanted to become a king, he needed to sharpen his face. Now he realized that David's face didn't need to be tempered at all. He didn't show it before because his strength didn't allow it.

"Besides, it's impossible for you to be idle."

"That's true!"

Fording had the opportunity to say goodbye to everything and live in seclusion as an ordinary old man.

But when he knew that his world was about to face great danger, he stood up without hesitation!

Whether it is because of David's influence or Fording from the original world line, neither is the character who ignores the raging evil and quietly finds a secret place to spend the rest of his life.

"Also, Lei Nuo and Sally have been here for a long time, and it's time to return to the Kingdom of Lordaeron."

Renault Mograine and Sally Whitemane have developed their knowledge here in Winter City. The most important thing is that the relationship between the two is very stable now without Alexandros Mograine. , and there was no outbreak of resentment, let alone being drawn out by the fearful demon king to express his dissatisfaction with old Mograine, and to play a classic drama of fatherly kindness and filial piety.

Without the high pressure of his old father, Renault Mograine demonstrated his ability very well, which can be regarded as indirectly proving his ability to his father.

In addition, old Mograine hadn't seen Renault for a long time, and he also missed his eldest son very much. He suggested to Fording more than once to let his son come back to help.

David didn't know the specific content of the discussion between the two paladins.

In short, Fording hopes that after Calia Menethil succeeds to the throne as Queen of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Raynor and Sally will return to the Kingdom of Lordaeron to play.

"Who is the Kingdom of Lordaeron planning to send to take over the post of diplomat?"

These two official identities in Winter City are the diplomats of the Kingdom of Lordaeron stationed in Winter City, paladins and instructors of the Holy Light, which belong to the part-time jobs of the two in their free time.

"Tylan?"

"No, Tai Lan also wants to go back."

Tylan Fording was sent by Old Fording to learn novel knowledge and broaden his horizons. He felt that with his son's intelligence, he should have learned a lot in such a long time, and it was time to go back and help himself.

As for Reno Mograine's diplomat status, it was his younger brother Darian Mograine.

"Why are they all from the Mograine family? Is there no one left in the Kingdom of Lordaeron?"

"To be honest, there really aren't many talents left."

The undead Scourge and the Scourge horrified the Kingdom of Lordaeron, not just the loss of life, the displacement of the people, the pollution of the land, and the death of a large number of soldiers.

Also includes the deaths of a whole bunch of lords and nobles, which is devastating for a feudal kingdom!

There is no one to manage such a huge place, and Calia Menethil is the only ones who can be used by her side, and the outstanding talents of the younger generation are Mograine's son, his own son, and Abidi. A girl from the Si family.

Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that these young people have received key training - sending them to Winter City to learn all kinds of knowledge is the way of key training, and ordinary people are not qualified to be sent here.

However, not all forces regard Winter City as an excellent destination for studying abroad, and the mage city Dalaran has another idea.

Although they knew a lot about Winter City from Jaina, they also had some understanding of this city located in another world.

But the mages don't think there is anything special about Winter City. Compared with them, they value the fact that Winter City is far away in another world: this is simply the most perfect place to deal with some troublesome mages.

The mages of Dalaran have decided to send their most troublesome mage, Ronin, to Winter City to replace Jaina as Dalaran's diplomat in Winter City.

As for Jaina? She will not be recalled to Dalaran, because in addition to representing Dalaran, she also represents Kul Tiras, so she will continue to stay in Winter City.

Why did this news come from Fording? Because Dalaran directly sent Ronin to the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

The mage will represent Dalaran at the Queen's Succession Ceremony before heading to Winterfell.

After arriving in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Ronin visited Fording directly and told the regent of Lordaeron about his next arrangements, so Fording knew all about it.

"Ronin? He's still so unpopular with fellow mages!"

"That shouldn't be a problem for you."

Although Luo Ning is not popular with other mages in Dalaran, he is indeed a powerful mage and his character is trustworthy. David should welcome him very much—as long as he doesn't blow up Winter City .

After chatting about things on Azeroth for a while, Fording also asked about the situation in Winter City.

At first, he often came to see, but gradually came less and less. He only came here occasionally to check the general situation of Winter City. After making sure that everything was fine with David, he didn't ask too much detail.

Today I have time to ask more questions.

Only after this question did I know that such a big change has taken place in Winter City!

Not only does Winter City occupy a larger area, but the naval base has been built to the area across the Winter River, and there is even a new development plan: to completely connect Winter City, Frost and Cold Sentry, and Snowfield Fortress. , forming a huge urban agglomeration!

"It's amazing."

Fording has learned what a modern urban agglomeration is, and knows that this design is in line with the future development direction, but after all, he lives in a "relatively backward (?) world, and the castles, cities, towns, and villages he saw since childhood have already formed in his heart. Fixed impression.

Even for David, the development was initially carried out in the way he was familiar with.

As a result, David's Winter City had just begun to look like a big city, and he was preparing to build a modern urban agglomeration. This kind of leapfrog development made him feel a little dazed.

"Actually, this is not an urban agglomeration, it's just connecting the scattered land in hand."

At least until the entire northern plain is developed, it can be regarded as a real urban agglomeration, and then gradually radiate outward.

The ultimate goal is to have only "one city" on the entire Brennian continent, or even the entire planet to only have the city of Winter City.

"It sounds magnificent." Fording said that he had learned it, and he seriously thought about whether the Kingdom of Lordaeron could do the same?

He doesn't have to worry about the technology. Since Winter City can do this, it proves that they have the relevant technology in their hands. He only needs to consider what kind of chips should be used, and buy the relevant technology from David.

"By the way, there is something I want to hear from you."

After listening to David's detailed description of the various changes in Winter City during this period, Fording wanted to ask David, an increasingly mature ruler, how he would choose when faced with such a problem ?

"After Her Majesty the Queen takes the throne, should I continue to quietly clean up the impact of natural disasters and restore the strength of the Kingdom of Lordaeron? Or, after initially stabilizing the situation in the kingdom, immediately mobilize the army and go to sea with other allies to expedition to Nordson De?"

Although the succession ceremony has not yet been held, the development direction of the Kingdom of Lordaeron after Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne has been discussed many times, but no consensus has been reached.

"This matter... from my plan for Winter City, you should be able to see my tendency?"
