Chapter 247 New Territory Inspection

Under the old system, repression may have been too harsh, and they may have accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction in their hearts. After eliminating these dissatisfactions, they began to feel good about the new government's provision of abundant material support.

Ultimately, cultivating the people's patriotism and loyalty is achieved through education, while the old system only cares about power, and the result is obviously fragile. Klein came to this conclusion in his discussion with Ye Kai and others.

In the end, it is education that instills patriotism and loyalty in the people, and the old system's negligence failed to achieve this. A group established by force without using education is fragile. This is just the result that is revealed.

Klein came to this conclusion during his conversation with Ye Kai and the others. The group of people traveling on the road arrived at a place overlooking the prosperous city. It was on the top of the mountain, and the city could be clearly seen from the high ground.

“It’s a beautiful city, isn’t it?”

"Yes, I had it investigated a little as a possible migration site when the breakup of Loatzin was under consideration."

Klein answered Eleanor's questions and told her what he knew about the city.

“It looks like this city has always been a thriving trading city.”

As Klein said, Suamezin is a trading city. The two-day journey from Loazin to here is a suitable distance for the distribution of supplies.

As the country's main city, Loajin naturally concentrates supplies. Supporting a large population requires a large amount of supplies.

But if these supplies are accepted without limit, it will lead to uncontrollable expansion and may cause functional failure. But limiting the inflow of supplies also brings problems. If the supplies are stored in a dispersed manner, they cannot be immediately accessed when something happens. Therefore, major cities need satellite cities to concentrate supplies.

These satellite cities are used to temporarily store supplies, serve as trading hubs, curb excessive population growth, and are also resting places for road users. Major cities must have such satellite cities, and Suametz is one of them.

Klein decided to stay in Suamejin for a few days, and when he was about to enter the city, the leading adventurer did not move. He noticed that Ye Kai's right arm was equipped with a multifunctional wrist guard, and thought there was danger, but quickly gave up the idea.

They seemed to be discussing something, but there was nothing unusual in the city. Zane and Senna turned around and walked towards the carriage. Ye Kai still smiled after getting off the carriage and said something strange.

------------------

"Want to play? Come on, Senna, Zayn."

Ye Kai said this and took out a box. It contained cloth for the chessboard and chess pieces representing various soldiers, cities, forests and other objects.

These are tools used in a game similar to shogi, except that there are no grids and the distance of the move is measured by an included ruler.

Although it seems practical because there is no restriction on the direction of movement, in fact, this game board is often used by amateur players to play. Because in actual combat, various troops need to be organically combined to play a role, so the rules like moving one step at a time are not practical for actual combat.

Professional soldiers use a variety of chess pieces on a larger chessboard, allowing a large number of people to participate in tactical discussions and learn how to use troops. The game played by two people is still considered just a form of entertainment, not actual combat. But it is quite popular among the people, and Ye Kai also bought a set.

He first placed the city tiles in a pattern, and then placed the forest tiles in a series, representing the forest area. This made it look like a scene overlooking the surroundings of Suametz from a high ground. Then he placed the infantry and cavalry teams in front of the north gate, as well as the corresponding cavalry teams.

Seeing this, Senna and Zane also understood. There were real objects in front of them, and it was obvious that they were going to play a chess game of city attack and defense. The attackers launched a surprise attack from the forest, and the defenders deployed in front of the city gate. This was a typical situation. Ye Kai seemed to intend to let the two of them control the chess pieces of the attack and defense respectively.

“If you were going to defend the city, where would you put it?”

He handed over a cavalry piece, representing a small group of cavalry. It seemed that this was not a battle, but more like a dead end in shogi, a competition for tactical deployment.

“I’ll put it here.”

Sena seemed to have some pride of being older, and quickly took the chess piece and placed it on a point. This position happened to be behind the attacking cavalry team. If guerrilla tactics were taken into consideration, this position seemed to be the most ideal pincer attack posture.

“How’s this location?”

"The attackers and defenders are not numerically superior. So adopting a pincer attack will effectively cause unrest. If the attackers become passive because they are worried about being pincered from behind, the defenders may also take the initiative to attack. If they do not retreat, we can start to encircle them."

Senna presented her tactics in a very methodical manner. Although she may not have received special training, it does not seem that way.

"Wow!"

"This is……"

Even the members of the Royal Guards exclaimed in amazement. For them, they were just watching the children playing, but now they were facing a princess who showed the same tactical vision as them. They had to admire her.

"That's unexpected. Your plan is really ingenious."

"hehe."

Of course, Senna's self-esteem would also be boosted if she received praise from Tulio, who had studied military affairs.

"I am not just a decoration next to Sister Galatea. I don't intend to be a princess who only exists to add to the atmosphere."

The Dauphin's family often reviewed the troops to boost their morale. At that time, she was probably observing the soldiers' actions. She seemed to have recalled the drill and dug out this method of using troops from her memory. Her ability to use the knowledge she had absorbed in various situations showed her flexibility.

“Are these people bad people?”

Ye Kai put the chess piece he had simulated moving back and handed the cavalry chess piece to Zane. He stared at the chess piece for a while, then blinked, tilted his head, pointed at the attacker and asked.

He seemed confused. If he hadn't just been thinking about this as a simple game, but about what actions he should take in each situation, he might have been thinking differently. Someone like Zayn can sometimes be distracted, and sometimes be unusually calm or unusually smart.

“It depends on the situation, but it could be considered a bad guy.”

"Um!"

This time, Zen, who had been looking at the chessboard quietly for a while, then gently put down a chess piece.
