Chapter 362

A month later, Nord left the East alone, and no soldier followed behind. Nord galloped on the rugged mountain road. He was very tired on his face, but there was an excited look in his eyes.

For more than a month, Nord has occupied various towns in the East. In addition to the beginning, many towns are resisting Nord. However, after Nord won several towns, his name spread throughout the East. In particular, the news that Nord defeated the Marquis of Stilwell is spreading wildly in the East.

In fact, some of this is the news released by Nord himself, but more is people's conscious dissemination of the news, because there were some rumors in the East that the Marquis Stilwell was defeated by a young aristocrat, but not many people believe it.

However, after Nord arrived in the East, the news was immediately confirmed. In addition, Nord did not choose to harass civilians after capturing those towns. Thanks to good reputation, Nord later went to the towns in the East. These nobles basically fell at the wind, and Nord was not hindered at all.

In fact, the most difficult battle in the East was to capture Devin City, which was the territory of the Marquis of Stilwell. Therefore, the nobles of Devin city had a strong will to resist, and they also caused some trouble to Nord. However, under the fierce attack of Nord soldiers, Devin city was quickly captured by Nord.

Nord more or less absorbed some tactics of the Ximan kingdom in this war. Although Nord would not let his soldiers rush to the wall to die, there were still many ways to lure the enemies out of the wall. Nord pretended to attack the wall with his own troops.

But every time they just climbed the ladder and didn't mean to attack the wall at all, but the soldiers in Devon city didn't know Nord's intention. Every time they rushed out in the pretending cry of Nord's soldiers, and then they were greeted by the sharp arrow rain of Nord's long-range army.

After several times, the soldiers of Devon city were not fooled, just like the wolf. After several times, the soldiers of Devon city simply didn't come out. Seeing this, Nord directly asked his troops to start the general attack. In this way, they were caught off guard immediately, and the wall of Devon City was lost.

The soldiers in Devon city were still too simple. Finally, they were fooled. They saw the first layer of Nord and thought they could deal with it with the second layer, but actually Nord was the fifth layer. Hey, I didn't expect it, so they were still too tender (the thousand layer cake of the gold chef was too fragrant).

In fact, when Nord captured Devon City, the battle in the East was over, but Nord still led troops to capture all towns in the East. Therefore, in this month, Nord's footprints traveled all over the East and learned about the general situation in the East.

Generally speaking, the East is indeed richer than the north, but it does not exceed too much. The civilians are also struggling with food and clothing, but the civilians in the East are not as hungry as those in the north. A large number of people will starve every winter. Due to the climate, the cold season in the East is not as cold as that in the north.

This climate condition gives the civilians in the East a glimmer of life, so that they can go to the wild to look for food in the cold winter. Although the food in winter is very scarce, it is better than nothing. At least saving their lives is their most worried problem.

Moreover, the reason why Nord wants to observe all the towns in the East is to know how much war potential there is in the East. After walking through the whole East, Nord roughly estimated that there is no big problem in recruiting three or four thousand people from the East.

In fact, with the population in the East, Nord can recruit more people, but this may cause greater pressure on Nord's financial problems. Although Nord is not very short of money, the monthly expenses of thousands of soldiers are also astronomical.

Especially now that Nord has just acquired such a large territory, all the territories are in a state of waste waiting for prosperity, and there are a lot of places to spend money. Nord wants to recruit 4000 troops from the East. Nord needs elite soldiers, not a group of cannon fodder rushing to the battlefield.

The reason why Nord is so anxious to return to Isaac is to seek assistance. It is not a problem of war, but a huge eastern territory. Nord has to deal with affairs every day. In particular, Nord has just taken over the eastern territory, and many things have to be dealt with urgently. Nord is simply too busy.

Having no choice, Nord had to return to the ISAAC leader to move rescue troops. Now there is still a lack of overall task of commanding in the East. Just like hill scholar to the ISAAC leader, Nord needs someone to help him manage the just occupied East.

After Nord came out of the tavern in Tami town and didn't get what he wanted, Nord had to take judge Matthew there, because isaacborg is now in a very important position. It is like the heart of Nord's power to deliver blood to Nord's other sites. At present, it is inseparable from the leadership of Hill scholar.

Nord, who couldn't find anyone, had to use judge Matthew first. I believe judge Matthew must have learned a lot of skills in governing the territory after getting along with hill scholars. Moreover, now that the East has just been occupied by Nord, the nobles are very honest, and there are still troops in the East to support judge Matthew, Nord believed that judge Matthew would be able to manage the affairs of the East.

Along with judge Matthew, old Moore, who was transferred back from the cottage, took office. Because Nord was afraid that the soldiers in the East would not be led by anyone, he asked old Moore and judge Matthew to go to the east together and carry out the recruitment plan of Nord plan in the East.

Just as judge Matthew and old Moore cooperate to manage the East, judge Matthew is responsible for administration and can sort out and implement the code he has begun to prepare. After Nord put forward the concept of founding the country, judge Matthew thought it was a very appropriate time to promulgate a new code when the country was founded.

And he has been working hard for this. Before, judge Matthew wanted to experiment in Isaac, but he was rejected by Nord and hill scholars, because the promulgation of a new code will certainly cause people's discomfort for a period of time, but this period is the time when Isaac is going all out, and there can be no mistakes at all.

Therefore, the code that judge Matthew never forgets has not been tested in a suitable place, but the east boundary that Nord just obtained is a very good experimental field. Nord can let judge Matthew do it. Only Nord's army stays in the East for a day, Nord believes that there will be no trouble in the East.

In the East, Nord is most nervous about the 4000 soldiers that old Moore is about to recruit. Nord doesn't care about anything else. Judge Matthew can let go, because after Nord establishes the country, a large-scale reform must be carried out, and Nord doesn't look at the current enfeoffment system.

The enfeoffment system is too backward to give full play to the full strength of Nord territory. Moreover, the war potential is very low and the administrative efficiency is not high. The country Nord wants to establish must be centralized.
