Victor then took out the intelligence that the Intelligence Department had sent a few days earlier regarding the Faith Order Headquarters.

After a quick glance, Victor learned that the Barbarian Tribes he had discovered heading to the Faith Order Headquarters 'Faith Order Headquarters at the beginning of winter had already arrived safely and settled in.

This group did indeed add a significant number of people to the Faith Order Headquarters; however, as a newly joined tribe with few believers, it would take them a long time to adapt to life at the Faith Order Headquarters.

Compared to ordinary Barbarian Tribes, the daily life of the Faith Order was subject to much greater constraints, with many precepts that differed from the traditional lifestyle of the Barbarians.

This was indeed difficult for most of the naturally undisciplined Barbarians to accept, so the Faith Order Headquarters caused quite a bit of trouble during this period because of accepting this group of Barbarians.

There were even some significant problems, with some Barbarians unwilling to accept the constraints wanting to leave the Faith Order Headquarters, something the Faith Order certainly wouldn't agree to.

So these Barbarians tried to steal horses and food and escape on their own. When the Faith Order found out, they took decisive action, executing several of the leading Barbarians and arresting the remaining participants, who were then sentenced to hard labor.

This action intimidated the newly joined Barbarians, but it also made it difficult for the Faith Order to absorb them. It is estimated that it will take even longer to fully assimilate these people into the Faith Order Headquarters force.

This chaotic situation also created a good opportunity for the Expeditionary Army, as the entire outer defense line of the Faith Order Headquarters was now handed over to Mizhene's troops.

In other words, if Mizhene is indeed willing to obey the orders of the Golden Sunflower Family, once the Expeditionary Army arrives...

Mizhene could then have his troops shield the Expeditionary Army from the cult's movements, allowing them to enter the Faith Order Headquarters valley directly without being detected by the Faith Order Headquarters.

When the Expeditionary Army that has infiltrated the valley launches its attack, it will catch the Faith Order off guard, greatly increasing the chances of victory and significantly reducing casualties.

Victor also hoped things would go smoothly, but he still felt that Mizhene was not entirely safe. After all, Keledu and Mizhene had been separated for five years, and no one knew whether Mizhene could still remain loyal.

Therefore, Victor does not intend to interfere in the subsequent battles for the time being; all battle plans will have to be decided by Santos himself.

After all, the Two Rivers County is too far from the Faith Order Headquarters. If Victor were to make any micromanagement moves, it could easily cause unnecessary trouble for the Expeditionary Army.

According to Victor, the operation should be adjusted by the commander based on the actual situation.

Just as Victor was contemplating the Expeditionary Army, in the territory's Arms Factory, Burke looked at the orderly production workshop where rifles were being manufactured and showed a satisfied expression.

After the Fourth Regiment set off, Victor personally witnessed the Type One Rifle after detailed adjustments. Victor was very satisfied with the Type One Rifle and immediately instructed the Army Department to place an order with the Arms Factory.

Type One Rifle has officially begun to be issued to the troops, and the first batch of 5,000 rifles ordered will be delivered to the troops by the end of October.

Given the current monthly rifle production capacity of only 600 rifles at the Arms Factory, this requirement is difficult to meet. After all, there are still 7 months until the end of October, and even with full production, only 4,200 rifles can be produced.

But Buker had already planned that once the Arms Factory secured new orders, Arms Factory could expand production.

As soon as the Arms Factory received the deposit from the Army Department, Burke used the money to purchase a large amount of new equipment and materials and began production on order.

The expansion of the new production line is progressing very smoothly. According to Burke's estimate, the Arms Factory will reach a monthly production capacity of 800 Type One Rifle this month, which is more than enough to deliver the orders before the deadline.

Burke calculated that if this order was successfully completed, it would bring the Arms Factory a profit of over 1,000 gold, allowing the Arms Factory to have a good year.
