After thinking about it, Eugen sighed. Although he was a lord, he had no way to deal with such a thing. He could only let the two of them find ways to get along with him.

As for the expansion of the army, Eugen had already made up his mind that he would allow women to join the army.

Overall, this matter is definitely more beneficial than disadvantages. Moreover, from the tide of historical development, it is also one of the trends that women participate in production and gradually become the main force of production.

Although the old concepts are still blocked, they will not last long. No matter from any perspective, women will gradually enter all walks of life in the future.

In this case, what's wrong with being the first person yourself?

Thinking of this, Eugen walked out of the room. He was about to ask others about their opinions first, and it would be best to let them understand the situation and gain support before discussing it.

One night passed, and early the next morning, several important figures in Lebre City gathered in the castle hall.

After leaving Parma and Allen, Simon, the commander of the Dragon Horse Army, also walked in. Behind him was Viscount Pigad, the president of the Central Bank of Leber. During the period when Eugen was no longer, Viscount Pigad and Simon had a good relationship and gradually became good friends.

Then there was Corion, the captain of the Long Yin Army. He also walked in. Although the number of Long Yin Army is very small, its status is at the same level as that of the Long Xiang Army.

So Corion's identity is equivalent to Simon's identity, and the two of them have no distinction.

Following Corion is Rambo. Many people in this hall have only met Rambo recently, but they have more or less heard of Rambo's deeds before.

The fact that they were able to go to Sicily alone to stop the Black Death also made others admire him very much, so they respect Rambo very much. Therefore, in just a few days, Rambo had already established a relationship with most people.

Because the institute had some urgent research, the director couldn't get away with it every day, so he did not come to participate in the meeting.

These people are the main leaders of Lebre City. Corion and Simon are in charge of two major armies, Rambo is in charge of transportation, Parma is the mayor, responsible for managing all trivial matters of the city, Viscount Pigaard is in charge of bank affairs, and he also supervises some things in commercial trade.

Because of his physical problems, Allen became the director of the First Steel Plant. All factories in the Leiber area were managed by him, and he was mainly responsible for weapons production, so he had many connections with the military.

After everyone gathered, the question was raised yesterday, and a discussion was held directly on whether to allow women to join the army.

This problem doesn't seem to be big, but in fact there are quite a lot of things involved. The most important thing is the change in concepts. If this precedent is set, women will inevitably participate in all aspects of work in the future.

And what followed was a series of social problems, as well as the upcoming changes and many impacts among various noble families.

However, any change will first encounter great resistance. At this moment, even for those who are more active in Lebre City, this is a considerable impact.

In particular, this incident can be said to have impacted many of their original ideas and even overturned most of their past cognitions.

So the first time the question was raised, Allen stood up and opposed it directly: "No matter what, I don't agree with letting women join the army. This does not conform to the principles of the knights. Going to the battlefield is a matter for men. Women are too weak and need to be protected, rather than letting them fight with other men!"

Last night Eugen had already talked about this with others privately and asked them to consider their plans. So after Allen spoke, Simon stood up and said with a serious expression: "This matter is indeed a big deal. As the commander of the legion, I don't want women to join the army, and I don't want to command women to go to the battlefield to kill enemies. However, I also understand that women and even children can have good combat power when using new weapons, so I don't think this is impossible."

Simon's words were generally consistent with Allen's ideas, but he had some neutral meaning. After hearing this, Allen glanced at Simon, and anger appeared in his eyes.

Simon didn't care about Allen's opinion, and continued: "So I think that some women can be allowed to join the army, but they cannot become the main force. At most, they can only recruit a small number of them as auxiliary army."

Speaking of this, Parma opposed: "A small number of female soldiers cannot change anything at all. If they are allowed to join the male army, it will cause chaos in the male army. Therefore, if you want to form a formation, it is better for women to form a formation alone."

Corion has been silent since entering the hall. He doesn't seem to want to express his meaning. However, when he heard Parma's words, he couldn't help but speak: "If most women gather together in a single formation, it is likely to cause greater chaos and unintentional offense. But I think it's more difficult to keep women calm after going to the battlefield and kill people."

Although Corleon did not say it explicitly, his meaning was obviously against it. Like Allen, Corleon was also a traditional knight and had certain principles that he adhered to. However, his opposition at this moment was not because of these principles, but was in real consideration.

The question he raised is indeed reasonable. Their discussion here is just one of the key points. The most important point is to make those women overcome their psychological limitations.

For women, the impact of going to the battlefield to kill people is still a bit too great. If they faint after seeing the dead, it would be too bad.

After Corion finished speaking, Rambo looked at him next to him, and then said, "These questions can be overcome. We cannot make our own judgments if they go to the battlefield. We still have to try them before we know. Haha, who can say that when we first went to the battlefield, we wouldn't feel afraid?"

Rambo's tone was calm, but it won the approval of most people, and even Alan showed a thoughtful look on his face.

After saying this, Rambo continued: "I think you can try this first. We cannot judge what will happen based on the current conditions alone."
