Li Yu was well aware of the necessity to control military power.
Previously, due to the all-conscript nature of the lizard people, it hadn't made much difference whether the Dual Rest Sect organized an army or not. However, as the lizard people gradually settled down in this land, and more and more foreign believers poured in,
it would definitely become difficult and no longer timely to continue the practice of universal conscription.
Moreover, with the development of productive forces, the division of societal labor would inevitably become more specialized; for instance, craftsmen concentrating on their crafts, merchants on their trade, and military personnel increasingly turning professional, thus making each industry more efficient.
Therefore, Li Yu planned to emulate the Roman Church by forming a knight order for the Dual Rest Sect.
As for the positions of the commander and deputy commander of the knight order, Li Yu had already had suitable candidates in mind.
