"Ha, this depends on how many non-official forces and manpower I have, right? Let's also see how much help the white people in Harrison Port can do for me."

Ian's heart was like a bright mirror.

He knew very well that when the Marquis of Barton gave him a military rank and organization, in addition to recognizing that he was their "one of their own", he also wanted to see what kind of power he had in Nanling and whether he could secure his next position as lord.

After all, he is already at the second level and can be an official Baron Ian. In fact, if Ian is willing to stay in the imperial capital for a longer time, for example, until the big conference and the subsequent national-local conference are over, Shan

After the civil rebellion is proven, he can even directly rely on the second prince's relationship to become a baron, and return to the territory to clean up the rebellion in the name of baron.

But the problem is that Ian can't wait. As long as he appears in front of Axel, the defender of the land, there is a high chance that he will fall off his horse and die, so he can only come back as a hasty knight.

But the problem is not big, it’s just the order.

It is a fact that all the knights were involved in the rebellion of the mountain people. As long as he can quell the chaos in the Ryan Territory, then Marquis Barton can apply to the imperial capital and use this merit to officially canonize him as a baron and make himself a noble.

And then control the entire original Leian territory.

But the premise is whether you can do it yourself.

Facing those rebellious or silent mountain knights, what should Ian do now that he is alone?

——Am I borrowing favors from the Marquis of Barton and asking for people from the Marquis’s personal knights? Or am I asking for help from the Dragon Worship Cult and Port Harrison?

If I really put all my subordinates under this independent organization, and the empire wants to disband the independent regiment in the future and disperse the teams and officers in the regiment to other areas, will the others who have become officers still be willing to continue to work with me?

?

If you are just willing to do things along with yourself, does that mean you are disloyal to the empire?

These things are very troublesome and there are many ways to do it.

"This eagle just likes to play this kind of temptation! But it also shows that the magic potion can transform the body in all aspects, and the character will also be affected."

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The original owner of the Warcraft material used for the true form of Archon White Flame is mostly a suspicious and cruel type of Warcraft. Marquis Barton just likes to be provocative rather than ruthless, and his personality is quite upright rather than vicious behind the scenes. His character has already

Pretty good.

Of course, there is the most important thing.

"How much funding is there? Is there any equipment? Is it based on regiment-level or battalion-level establishment?"

Ian did not hesitate to ask for military expenses, but Marquis Barton couldn't help laughing: "You don't have any people, so you need funds and equipment? You still want to get it by group, do you know that this is empty money?"

?]

Although he scolded him, he obviously liked Ian's keenness: [Funds and equipment, both the Governor's Mansion and the 19th Army Corps here in Nanling are short of money and cannot give you additional support. When the time comes,

As many people as you can recruit, the legion will equip you with military pay and equipment.]

[I will personally give you five hundred talers for the operation. Personally, it is a reward for thanking you for finding the spy in the Governor's Palace, so that Mayowa will not make a fool of himself]

This time, Marquis Barton's tone was quite sincere. Not to mention the possible subsequent damage caused by the flesh-and-blood shapeshifter, when the identity of the other party is exposed in the future, Colonel Mayowa, who knows nothing about it, will definitely leave a stain on his resume and hinder his efforts.

Evaluate the title of general.

Five hundred thalers, not much. It really only needs to be used to arm a dozen people at most, but the most important thing is that Marquis Barton’s attitude of helping Ian is enough to do many things in Nanling. Ian quickly thanked

.

【correct】

Marquis Barton seemed to have thought of something: [I remember you have armor, right? The Cyclops armor you designed some time ago attracted a lot of attention]

[Although it is a pity that I lost the selection, the idea of ​​using heavy armor equipped with super heavy firepower, combined with some flying capabilities, to forcibly annihilate key enemy targets is very popular, and the eldest princess likes it very much]

[Before this, most of our sniper armors were based on the idea of ​​using light armor to increase mobility and using special ammunition to snipe enemy officers. Now it seems that as the armor's defense is getting stronger and stronger,

This kind of thinking may have fallen behind]

Without waiting for Ian to be humble, Marquis Barton said: [Mayowa, prepare an independent armored team (three units) for Ian, and provide all the supplies]

"Yes." Mayowa responded, and Marquis Barton continued to say to Ian: [The former Ryan Territory is an important origin of alchemy materials in Nanling. Take it back. This is your first mission goal]

[The second goal is to annihilate all the mountain thugs and Feiyan land agents who occupied the Leian Territory as much as possible without leaving any survivors. These guys who dare to rebel after being incited do not deserve mercy]

[The third goal, I ask you to be a nail around the Solitary Flame Peak, which is one of the few gathering points for the rebel mountaineer army to attack the Agate Stone Plain. Hold on until the beginning of next year, when the empire will

There are big moves]

[You are directly responsible to Mayowa and me, others have no right to order you]

Compared with the previous temptation, this time it was all for Ian's benefit.

Let’s not talk about the establishment of the independent armored squad of the imperial military. It is somehow higher than the establishment of an independent regiment of a frontier army.

A team's supply of elemental crystals is enough for one of Ian's armors to last until the end of the year.

Ian's original goal was the Ryan Territory, and now he has a military mission, which means that the original goal has additional rewards.

Not to mention the second one, Ian had no intention of leaving his enemies alive. On this point, he and the Marquis of Barton completely agreed. No matter what the reason or the difficulties, anyone who hindered him from renovating his territory would have to die.

There's no harm in having a knife.

The third point is that the so-called big move is probably the empire's large-scale offensive against the western border of Nanling after the Flaming Land fortress group became independent.

Before that, Feiyandi would definitely urge the dragons and mountain people to intensify their attack in order to better harass Nanling at the rear.

Although the road from Guyan Peak to Laian Territory is not the only one, there will definitely be many rebel troops attacking the territory.

To put it bluntly, this means that as long as Ian is his lord, the Nineteenth Legion will support him.

"It seems that I have to settle things with Ryan as soon as possible."

Ian thought this way. The other party gave him such a great convenience just to see how capable his 'genius' was in handling affairs in addition to research.

That's pretty much it.

After the call, Ian rested overnight at the Governor's Mansion.

Before resting, he called Viscount Grant and Elder Puder in Port Harrison.

This time, before Ian returned from the imperial capital, it was not that he had done nothing. He had already sent the corresponding gifts back to his hometown.

What Viscount Grant received was the ‘repair plan for the Ether Furnace Heart’.

After Ian returned from the Great Maze of the South China Sea, he was able to repair the damaged ether furnace core of Viscount Grant's ether weapon 'Zhenglan' long ago, helping the machine that originally had third-level strength, but now can only exert its second-level strength.

The etheric weapons are back to their peak.

But because he couldn't reveal what he had gained in the maze, he put it on hold. After returning from the imperial capital and designing corresponding armor, Ian felt that it was time to show more of his value and help himself.

The old superior stabilized the situation in Harrison Port.

As the Nanling smuggling... no, the core of the external maritime trade channel, Harrison Port must also be the key target of Feiyandi. There may even be a direct attack by Feiyandi's navy, in order to ensure that the goods in their territory can be sold in the future.

When going out, Ian must plan ahead.

It has to be said that this gift was indeed delivered to the heart of Viscount Grant - this Viscount, who is probably able to advance to the third level in the past few years on the way to the Insect's Nest Road, probably has the problem of growing up.

Even after reaching the third level, there is no way to restore the glory of the family.

After all, the etheric weapons cannot exert their full power, and even if he has reached the third level, he is not considered a nobleman with solid foundation.

But Ian can solve this problem!

According to Elder Puder, what Ian sent back was the inheritance of the 'Silver Peak Messenger True Form' that had been re-determined in the sequence and refining method of the potion.

The most important thing about potions, besides the formula, is the refining technique. After all, there are so many possibilities for processing different materials. Most of these secrets are passed down orally and are only available in the official official library of the empire.

The most detailed refining method is not necessarily the best.

But Ian was able to re-deduce all of this.

Moreover, with this as a starting point, the Bai Zhimin family once again has the right to cultivate their own sublimators.

However, even if he gave such a big gift, Ian did not want to ask for troops from his hometown.

In other words, he didn't plan to have so many soldiers.

[Scott has already set off with the team of White People (30 people) you requested, and should be arriving at Nauman City soon]

Viscount Grant is in a very good mood now. His child will be born in a few months. He is preparing for it wholeheartedly and doesn't pay much attention to other things.

Indeed, the Viscount has no idea why Ian is such a genius and can advance to the second level at the age of sixteen... But what the heck, is it possible that he still wants to give Puder a low-pressure lecture and scold him for hiding it?

Do you think you have trained Ian so well?

If you have one more genius among you, why do you think so much?

It's rare to be confused.

What's more, the final facts proved that his decision was right, and he couldn't suppress Ian for his own use.

In this case, it's better to let him go and see how far Ian can go - Viscount Grant certainly didn't expect that Ian could soar into the sky and become like this.

But on the other hand, since he has decided to let go, how great Ian's achievements will be, how great his favor will be.

This is indeed the case. Not to mention the method of repairing the Ether Furnace Heart that Ian obtained from the Ellen family, what Ian said alone is that the future cooperation with the Harrison Port Alchemy Workshop will be enough to turn the Harrison Port's alchemy into a new one.

Level, raised to a height it shouldn't be.

——When Ian becomes a master alchemist, I can claim to be the one who trained a master alchemist.
