Even if we don't look at the heroes, it is the same among ordinary people.

The first refugees to arrive in the Cretaceous City were generally the elderly and children from nearby places who had no adults or young people to take care of them.

It is normal that these people have a higher mortality rate.

But most of the people arriving now are basically adults in their prime!

the reason is simple.

——Most of the elderly and children with weaker physical conditions have died on the way to escape.

They couldn't hold out that long, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers from their hometown to the Chalk City.

If we use the death rate of the elderly and children to calculate the death rate of young and middle-aged adults, the resulting number will definitely be too low.

Anyone with normal IQ can think of this.

There is certainly no problem with Quills's IQ.

So he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter!

Six hundred thousand people, and most of them are young and middle-aged adults?

If it is not handled properly...

Thinking of this, Quills shuddered and quickly stopped his divergent thoughts, not daring to think any further.

"Saint, do you have a solution?"

There is no need to mention the coronation ceremony anymore. In the face of practical issues, all face-saving projects must give way!

After learning about the current situation, Quills' mentality changed quickly.

"We need a lot of food right now! I've thought of three ways!"

"Which three?"

"First, I have asked Kai and Gawain to lead a group of people to cultivate a large amount of land and plant the third generation super seeds. Although the production will be reduced due to the severe cold, when the harvest comes in a month, it will also temporarily relieve the pressure on the Chalk City."

After a pause, Lin Yi continued, "Second, I will ask Meli and Altria to take a boat to the neighboring country to buy food! The gold and silver treasures in the country are useless to me, and they should be used to solve the problems of the kingdom right now!"

"That's how it should be."

Hearing this, Quills was speechless.

After all, it is the property of the royal family. Can't the king use it however he wants?

It's not his turn to make decisions.

"So, what's the last solution?"

Lin Yi did not answer, but just smiled, and then pointed to the north.

He pointed to the prosperous Cretaceous City outside the window.

Quills was stunned at first, and then he immediately realized what the new king meant.

——He wants to take action against the nobles and the northern kings!

Chapter 107: Reform and Guinevere! (Subscribe!)

As mentioned before, the system of the Kingdom of Camelot is very ancient, and like its other relatives in Europe, it is a feudal system.

In name, the king is the master of the entire country.

In fact, he can only be regarded as the head of the family at most.

Under the king, there are many "princes".

The so-called great nobles, great lords, and kings are such characters.

They have their own territory, their own political team, official system, and can even form an army.

As long as they have money, it is the right of noble lords to keep as many knights as they want, and the king has no control over it.

However, when war breaks out, the king has the right to recruit these noble lords to fight for him.

But, there is a prerequisite.

That is the strength of the central government, which must be overwhelmingly powerful.

Otherwise, the people below will not pay any attention to you.

During the reign of King Uther, Camelot was at its peak. The official knights of the Cretaceous City always had more than 50,000 men. Naturally, the northern kings did not dare to turn their backs on King Uther.

After all, we still have to rely on the central government to provide various material assistance.

But after a long time, all the wolf cubs were fed and fattened.

Naturally, their ambitions became bigger and bigger.

In addition, after King Uther's death, a new king was not elected for a long time.

The northern kings naturally became more and more domineering.

They even threatened to "strike", not to resist Vortigern, and to abandon the northern front, forcing the Cretaceous City to continue to provide various assistance.

If not.

During the Age of Gods, people were so wealthy that just sowing a handful of seeds would provide enough food for a year, thanks to the unique geographical environment.

How could the Kingdom of Camelot be so poor?

Wasn't it that most of it was taken away by the northern kings using various excuses to plunder it?

The central government is weak and the kings are strong.

It is normal for this situation to occur.

Just as in the Cretaceous City, there were still some fence-sitters who were ready to switch to Vortigern, it was the same principle to hedge your bets.

However, thanks to the selfless contributions of these fence-sitter nobles, Lin Yi can now barely hold on.

"Saint, isn't this somewhat inappropriate?"

After hesitating for a moment, Quills persuaded: "If you do this, I'm afraid it will force the northern kings to rebel against us!"

"Resist?"

Lin Yi just smiled: "Minister Quills, do you think they have room to resist?"

After Vortigern's death, all the Saxons under his command became Lin Yi's subjects!

This group of elite soldiers have been fighting against the northern kings for years, and their tactical skills have been honed to perfection!

If the northern kings had not taken advantage of the terrain and the steep mountains in the north.

I'm afraid they would have been killed by the Saxons long ago!

Not to mention, these were the Saxons who had previously been hungry and cold, and whose weapons were rusty and broken.

If they had the conditions they have now, the northern front would have been broken through long ago!

"Even so, I still don't think it's a good idea."

Quills sighed and added, "Not yet, at least."

"Minister Quills, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, I will not take up arms lightly, and I will not take action against the northern kings at this juncture. If you want to resist foreign aggression, you must first stabilize the internal situation. How can you spare time to deal with foreign enemies if the internal conflicts are not resolved?"

Camelot is now deformed.

The military power reached its peak, far exceeding that of King Uther.

Not only are there 10,000 knights stationed in the Cretaceous City, but there are also more than 100,000 Saxon legions.

The high-end combat force includes a number of titled knights, such as the Red Dragon Knight Altria, the Sun Knight Gawain, the Justice Knight Kai and others.

Morgan and Meili are also the Great Magicians of the Age of Gods.

Plus there is Lin Yi, a genuine god-level fighter.

Not to mention the northern kings, even the mighty Roman Empire could be defeated!

But while its military power reached its peak, the country was so poor that its people could not even feed themselves.

The poverty here is not a lack of money, but a lack of food.

There is a huge shortage of food!

Therefore, Lin Yi must first solve this stubborn problem before he can truly bring into play the role of the kingdom’s invincible army!

"So, Saint, what are you going to do?"

Under Quills's gaze, the young man put away his smile and said in a shocking tone, "I plan to modify the system and take back the royal power!"

Any struggle for power always involves bloodshed.

Or use gentle means, silently and gradually take back the rights that the king should have.

But now Lin Yi obviously no longer has the time to play any political games with the nobles.

The building will collapse.

He must use the most swift and ruthless means to take back all the dispersed power in the shortest possible time!

Therefore, it is inevitable to amend the system!

From feudal system to centralized system!

From now on, all power belongs to the king alone!

To reach the point where one's words can decide life and death!

In this system, the nobility became redundant, a poison of the old times, a product of obsolescence and decay!

It deserves to be swept into the trash!

In the new era, there will no longer be so-called nobility.

There is no need for kings to divide the royal power.

We only need officials who work for the king!

To achieve this, one must possess overwhelming military force and seize the commanding heights of public opinion.

Turn "injustice" into "justice"!

Coincidentally, Lin Yi possesses this kind of martial power.

The ten thousand knights of the Cretaceous City have sworn allegiance to the new king, not to mention the Saxons.

If they want to survive in this country, they can only rely on King Lin Yi.

Therefore, the Saxon Legion is born to be Lin Yi's die-hard fans!

Anyone could betray, except the Saxons.

As long as Lin Yi gives the order, this group of Saxon warriors will dare to raise their knives against the nobles and kill them until rivers of blood flow!

Of course.

In actual operation, it certainly cannot be so heartless and rough.

This is not conducive to Lin Yi's rule.

The butcher's knife can only make people afraid. If you want them to obey you completely, you need to use the "justice" and give them some sweet treats.

So Lin Yi summoned all the nobles who had supported Altria before.

Give them a choice.

The city of chalk.

A duke's mansion.

Upon hearing the news of the new policy, a group of nobles gathered here.

They angrily criticized Lin Yi's policies, and the noise was endless.

"The new king wants to take away our fiefdoms and our hereditary titles! He is digging up our roots!"

"If you ask me, I should have supported Vortigern from the beginning! At least, Vortigern would not do such a thing!"

"Without our spending, how can he be king? If we all quit, who will run the country for him?"

"What are you talking about nationalizing the land? Ha, the new king is still too young. Doesn't he know that as long as a system is implemented by humans, there will inevitably be loopholes?"
