After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

Considering this, after staring deeply at Avril, Katerina asked again,

"I remember that important documents never go through the clerical office, so...... Can you explain in more detail?"

"Of course~" Regarding Katerina's further questioning, Avril still looked calm,

"It's like this, miss. There are indeed no important documents in the clerical office, but there are detailed data on all aspects of Chris."

"Through the analysis of those data, I discovered a strange fact........In [the company], some nobles' lands are being quietly transformed into [the company]'s land through various methods. Common property."

"After discovering this strange phenomenon, out of curiosity, I conducted further research, and then I found that all the contracts involving land conversion seem to have the shadow of Miss."

"So I made a bold assumption that the lady seems to be trying to turn the land of the nobles into [the company's] public property."

At this moment, after hearing Avril's answer, Katerina narrowed her eyes instantly, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely depressing. The girl looked Avril up and down, as if she was looking at some creature she had never seen before.

After a while, Katerina spoke again in an unclear tone,

"So you think so? Then tell me, why should I do this?"

In the face of Katerina's questioning, Avril, who had remained calm from the beginning to the end, suddenly laughed lightly at this moment. There was a hint of cunning between her brows and eyes, and there seemed to be a little starlight in the depths of her eyes, which was unbearable. Can't help indulging in it.

"I guess, the reason why the lady did this is probably to make the gold coins flow?"

"There is a line of approval written by the lady herself. I have seen it in many documents...... The gold coins that are flowing are gold coins, and the gold coins that are hidden are just dead things. Only by letting the gold coins flow , the world will be full of vitality.”

"Actually, as long as you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that all the administrative orders of the [company] are almost centered around this point."

"Let's think about what the lady promised in the military parade before, 'the nobles and the king will be the masters of the country together'. If you look at the current legal principles used to maintain the order of each kingdom, the lady's promise is impossible to keep anyway. Arrived."

"So I had to make a bold guess. What Miss is going to do is to collect all the land into the hands of [the company]. No, to be precise, the land should be returned to the kingdom!"

"With this conclusion as a support, it is not difficult to guess what the lady needs to do."

"The document you are holding now is the list of candidates for the chief executive officer of the railway transportation department. In this regard, I boldly predict that the appointment of this position will again involve land transactions."

"That's why I just asked you if you need the distribution map of Chris's noble territories as a reference."

At this moment, when Avril Lavigne's voice fell, the room suddenly became quiet. After getting the answer, Katerina stared blankly at the former royal lady in front of her. At this moment, the girl's heart was filled with infinite surprise.

Yes, except for a few deviations in the content, this woman named Avril almost perfectly guessed Katerina's mind.

In fact, it’s not a day or two since Katerina’s idea of ​​attacking the land of the nobles. Since becoming the leader of the Chris Group, the girl who has changed her job to become the ruler has clearly recognized the importance of land reform, because every time She always ran into all kinds of trouble when she tried to push capitalism forward.

To give the most notable example, in order to reduce the transportation cost of goods, Katerina originally planned to build railways between the various territories, but so far, there is only one railway in the entire area around Chris Port, and it is still relying on Viscount Wayne. It took a lot of help to make it through.

The reason for this phenomenon is not a technical problem, but a land system problem.

In the beginning, when Katerina introduced the rail car technology to Chris, almost all the nobles opposed it. Except for Viscount Wayne, no one wanted Katarina to start construction on their own land.

After the railway leading to Viscount Wien's territory was completed, the nobles were finally moved by the huge benefits it generated, but the railway was not built in the end because the nobles were greedy for the cost of land transfer or lease. It has been raised to an unacceptable level, and there are a bunch of political conditions attached.

Faced with this situation, Katerina finally realized that if the bourgeoisie wants to develop capitalism, it must first abolish the feudal land ownership system and form its own land ownership system, otherwise all changes will be a dream come true.

However, land reform is not so easy to accomplish. Under the feudal land system, land is the lifeblood of the nobles. If the feudal land system is shaken, it will inevitably touch the fundamental interests of the nobles, and they want to snatch the ownership of the land from the nobles. , is tantamount to declaring war on the nobles.

Of course, if war can really solve the problem, Katerina is actually not afraid of fighting a civil war. However, not only is the girl basically aristocratic, but she herself is also a famous aristocratic class. To rebel against oneself is simply unpopular and will inevitably fail.This is very embarrassing.

Why is Catalina so eager to take over a country?Why is the girl's will so firm in the face of the temptation of Florida's throne?

The most important reason is that Katerina found that if she chose to stay in the Kingdom of Florida, it would be impossible to solve the fundamental contradiction between the backward feudal land ownership and the development of capitalism.

There is only one way to solve this problem, and that is foreign war!

First use foreign wars to create a "white land", and then re-establish a land rule that can promote capital development there!

Everything that Katerina is doing now is working hard for this purpose. The girl always thought that she was a lonely walker, but after hearing Avril's answer today, she realized that the natives of the other world are not actually stupid. Much smarter than I imagined.

Just like the woman in front of me, even if no one taught her, she still grasped the pulse of capitalism on her own.

This situation made Katerina deeply feel that I am not alone, but at the same time, she also had a headache. The girl didn't know how to deal with this beautiful woman with a gentle smile in front of her.

"Boom~! Boom~! Boom~!"

Just when Katerina was having a headache about how to arrange for Avril Lavigne, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the room, and then a man wearing Chris's military uniform walked in quickly, and the other party had just entered, He hurriedly opened his mouth and said,

"Your Majesty, there is an emergency!"

"A letter from Commander Francis, our navy has failed to stop us. Now the Burros fleet has arrived in the Caldoah Strait, and we will reach Chris in three days!"

While speaking, the man in military uniform handed over a document to Katerina, and after taking the document and glanced at it, the girl suddenly widened her eyes in bewilderment when she saw the contents of the document.

Immediately afterwards, a murmur filled with astonishment resounded faintly in the room,

"Sea fortress~? Chain boats~?"

"The king of Boulros, his surname is Cao, right..."

ps: All the civil and military officers of the future kingdom have already started, and the next step is to prepare for war

Chapter 132 128 The Prelude Slowly Opening

"...Your Excellency, a letter from Chris."

"Your Majesty the Grand Duke said in the letter that she already understood the situation here, and ordered us to give up contact and leave the battlefield immediately, and agreed to our request to formulate our own tactics."

At this moment, Lord Francis Thomas, who is standing in the command room of Princess Hill in the Caldoah Strait area, is receiving a reply from Chris.

After listening to the content of the reply letter, the commander of the Chris Navy first breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw him looking at the window of the command room with an irritable expression, looking through the steel window. The window sill, across the sea for several kilometers, a huge monster came into sight......

It was a majestic spectacle composed of thousands of warships. Countless wind-blown sails stood like a forest. From a distance, the boundary line between the sea and the sky was completely covered by the battleships. Its scale was so huge that It's like a war fortress floating on the sea!

At this moment, looking at the behemoth in sight, Lord Francis' face looked extremely gloomy. Obviously, the commander of Chris didn't like the wonder at sea.

In fact, these days Lord Francis tried his best to destroy the sea fortress, but in the end, he lost his temper abruptly by the other party.

Maybe someone who is familiar with a certain period of Chinese history will ask a question. If such a large-scale warship is tied together, as long as it is attacked with fire, can the problem be easily solved?

The idea is right, but it has to look at the specific situation.

In a certain period of Chinese history in Katerina’s previous life, there was indeed a period of history similar to the current situation. A prime minister who liked married women led an army of 80 troops to the south, and then chose to use iron chains to connect the boats in the water battle as he does now. tactics.

But in the end, the army under the prime minister's command was burned to ashes by a fire.

The current situation of the Burros people seems to be very similar to that period of history. Except that there is no leader who likes married women on the Burros side, both of them have a large army and both use the tactic of connecting ships with chains. It seems that as long as they use Fire attack, you can get the same effect.

However, this is not the case. The conditions between the two seem to be the same, but they are actually very different.

The first is the composition of the soldiers. Most of the troops under the prime minister's command are landlubbers who don't know how to fight water.

When the two encountered the same fire attack, the army under the prime minister didn't know how to deal with it, and could only let the panic spread. The Burros Navy has rich experience in naval warfare, and it is too sensitive to the fire attack that the enemy may launch. Many solutions.

In fact, as a naval admiral who spent half his life at sea, Lord Francis certainly knew that the best tactic to deal with the Burros sea fortress was to attack with fire.He had tried it a long time ago, but in front of the Burros Navy, who also knew the power of the fire attack, this trick was easily resolved, and it had no effect at all.

Then there is the tactical purpose. Although they are all chained boats, the purpose of the two sides is completely different. The prime minister chose this tactic because the soldiers under his command are not good at water warfare. platform.

On the other hand, the Burros Navy is the most elite navy in the world. They don’t need a bulky and obstructive combat platform to fight. The reason why they choose the chain ship is purely to deal with Chris’s "magic battleship".

No one is a fool. After being crushed many times by Chris's "magic battleship", the Burros Navy has summed up some experience. For example, they found that filling the cabin with sandbags can effectively resist Chris's "magic warship". Battleship" piercing attack.

It is precisely because they understand this truth that the Burros Navy chose the chain ship tactic. They first chained the battleships, and then filled the outermost ships with sandbags, waiting for Chris's "magic battleship" When an attack comes, use these sandbag-equipped ships as armor to resist the attack of Chris' "magic battleship".

But so far, the effect of this trick is very good.

Originally, the mission of the Princess Hill under the command of Lord Francis was to slow down the advance speed of the Burros Navy and deal as much damage as possible to the Burros Fleet. Now, the mission of the Princess Hill has failed, and the speed of the Burros Navy It hasn't dropped much, and its fleet size hasn't been effectively hit.On the contrary, the Princess Hill wasted a lot of shells in vain, not to mention that it also made the soldiers at the bottom of Burrose realize that Chris's "magic battleship" was not really invincible, and morale soared.

"Roswell, notify all departments immediately, we are preparing to retreat!"

At this moment, Lord Francis, who was staring at the sea fortress in the distance, finally let out a deep breath after being silent for a long time. Afterwards, the commander gave an order to his first officer with an irritable expression.

"Obey, Your Excellency Commander." Hearing Lord Francis' final statement, the first mate, who was worried that his boss would be irrational, immediately chose to obey the order. However, just as he was about to execute the order, he seemed to remember something Usually, the first mate suddenly asked again,

"Your Excellency, where are we going next? Is it back to Chris?"

"No, not back to Chris!" Facing the first mate's question, Lord Francis had a cold face, and then responded decisively,

"Let's take a detour through the Rotssid Sea first, and then go to Guidiwei Island!"

"Those Burros people already know how to defend against our electromagnetic guns. It is difficult for us to cause effective damage to them. The next battle will be a landing battle. It is not meaningful for us to return to Chris now."

"Guidiwei Island is now the supply and transportation station for those Burros people. As long as everything there is destroyed, their supply line and retreat can be cut off. If you are lucky, you can even disrupt the fighting will of those pirates!"

"So, let's turn around and attack Guidiwei Island!"

"But......" After listening to Lord Francis' order, the first mate seemed a little hesitant, and finally, he only heard a little hesitation and said,

"Your Excellency, Guidiwei Island is the territory of the Empire. If we attack rashly, will it..."

"Oh, Empire~" The next moment, before the first mate finished speaking, Lord Francis snorted heavily,

"That's what I hit!"

"Don't you understand, Roswell?"

"We've been enemies since the empire leased the Isle of Guidiway to the Burros!"

"Besides, judging from the strategic planning of Your Majesty the Grand Duchess, once we have dealt with the Burros people, the next goal is the empire!"

..........................................

A few hours later, the King of Saxony, who was watching the nautical chart in the captain's cabin in the sea fortress of Burrose, suddenly noticed a door opening behind him, and then heard a loud call,

"Boss, I just went on another inspection, and all the observers told me that I haven't seen Chris's 'magic battleship' for a long time."

"Hahahaha, it seems that those Chris people have really left."

Hearing this call, the King of Saxony knew the identity of the other party without even turning his head. Then, he put down the quill in his hand, turned around and said with a hearty smile,

"Hehe, Rodney, this is really good news. Thank you for bringing this news to me. I've been annoyed by that ship these days."

After the words fell, the King of Saxony suddenly looked around Rodney, and then he asked with a puzzled expression,

"Where's Andy? Isn't he with you?"

Facing the King of Saxony's inquiry, Rodney, wearing a horned helmet, took off the ax hanging on his back and put it aside, and then responded in a nonchalant tone,

"That octopus, we separated after we went out just now, um... I remember he seemed to say that he was going to check the damage of the outer shield ship, but I don't know the specifics. "

After listening to Rodney's reply, King Saxony was about to say something when he felt a movement from the gate again, and then, a figure walked into the captain's cabin. After a closer look, it was Andy who came. .

"Andy, I was talking about you. I didn't expect you to come back by such a coincidence."

After glancing at Andy, the King of Saxony smiled and waved,
