Chapter 192 Plan

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the swamp, dyeing it a warm golden yellow. From a distance, it looked like a peaceful and mysterious picture. newᴄᴏᴍ

A dry hard dirt road crosses two pitted wetlands, inserts into the stone forest and leads directly to the northern woodland.

A few years ago, Leisen built such a road after taking the black-collar tribe under his control to transport various resources.

At this time, Redal was leading a team of knights, escorting assassins and prisoners slowly into Swamp Town.

In the carriage of the carriage, Feridon was tied tightly and completely unable to move.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery in front of him, he finally believed that what Redal said was true - Baron Leisen could not come back, and Thain had taken over.

In the many days he had been a prisoner, he had never been as decadent and desperate as he was now.

The team slowly crossed this hard dirt road and soon arrived in front of Swamp Castle.

Looking at the orderly team of knights, Galil's eyes kept jumping back and forth between Ronin and Redal. He didn't know whose credit it was for Hillwood Town to have such a team so quickly.

"Lord Luo Ning, I see that your troops have all been equipped with ironwood armor. I wonder when the batch of weapons and equipment promised to us will be delivered to Wushan City?"

Galil is the captain of the first knight team of Wushanbao, and he was the one who signed the order with Luo Ning.

Ronin was still looking at his team of knights with interest, but he was suddenly stopped by Galil's question.

He pondered slightly and immediately said: "Don't worry, the half-year construction period is still more than three months away. It will definitely be completed before the end of April."

This is not Luo Ning's nonsense.

On the one hand, the Wubei Territory is out of the war, and its own demand for weapons and armor has become less urgent. The things produced by the Ironwood Workshop can be taken out first to collect orders;

On the other hand, Luo Ning now has so much more labor force in his hands. If he allocates a little to the ironwood workshop, he can greatly increase production capacity.

At that time, not only can Galil's order be completed, but the Iron Heel family's caravan can even begin to officially sell to the outside world.

"grown ups!"

While the two were talking, Redal had already dismounted. He came to Luo Ning and saluted respectfully. At the same time, he reported: "The Shadow Assassin and five knights including Leisen's Feliton have been escorted over by me."

Luo Ning nodded and patted Ruidal on the shoulder with great trust, "Well done!"

While talking, Luo Ning noticed that Redal's cultivation progress had reached 2 times that of the other party's own cultivation. Luo Ning did not use any energy essence for Redal.

Of course, Ronin did not add any points for McCann during this period. Now McCann relies on his own training and his progress has only reached 4/1500.

During the same period of time, Redal increased his progress by 2 and 4 points.

In other words, if he relied solely on self-cultivation, Redal's progress would be six times faster than McCann's.

Sure enough, the difference between the Sun Qualification and the Gold Qualification can still be reflected in the speed of cultivation.

After Luo Ning said hello to Horn, Jenny and others who were accompanying him, he began to hand over the criminals.

After the shadow, Feliton and others were successfully handed over to Galil, Ronin had nothing to do with Leisen's trial, and Wushan Castle would handle all subsequent matters.

In addition to the handover of criminals, people from Luoning's side also need to take over the defense issues of Swamp Town.

After all, Maas and Baron Talen from Wrangler City only came to help, and Luo Ning did not pay for the assistance. It was not appropriate for them to stay in Swamp Town for too long.

That night, a simple but sumptuous dinner was held in the Swamp Castle.

Mainly to thank Galil, Mas and Baron Talon for their care during this period, but also to say goodbye tomorrow.

After the dinner, Luo Ning summoned his knights in the study.

"After occupying the Black Collar Tribe, Magician Jenny took charge of the census."

Redal handed over the census results of the Black Collar Tribe, "This is the list of members of the Black Collar Tribe."

"Thank you for your hard work, Jenny." Luo Ning said.

Jenny bowed slightly and remained sufficiently humble: "My lord, there is no need to be so polite. This is what I should do."

Luo Ning spread out the parchment, and the beautiful handwriting clearly recorded the status of the black-collar tribe's personnel.

The Black Collar tribe has a total of 1,270 people, making it the largest among the four savage tribes.

As of now, although the census of Marsh Town has not been completed, the number registered in Luo Ning's hand has reached more than 4,400.

After the census in Marsh Town is completed, the population will definitely exceed the 10,000 mark.

"What's the current situation of the black-collar tribe?" Luo Ning asked.

"The situation is now under stable control, but perhaps because of the successive changes of leaders, the nerves of the people there are tense."

Luo Ning nodded slowly, "Joffrey, you were the leader of the Black Collar Tribe before. When the matter here is over, you will go back to the Black Collar Tribe to appease their emotions."

Joffrey bowed and responded, "As you command, my lord."

Luo Ning turned to ask a question that concerned him more: "What are the casualties in the attack on the Black Collar Tribe this time?"

After all, this is the first real war involving all personnel, and there will definitely be casualties.

"The casualties this time were minimal."

Ruidal reported truthfully: "One of the cavalry was killed and two of the infantry were killed. The cavalry were recruits recruited from Shanlin Town, and the infantry were the guards who followed the Lord from Wushanpu in the early days."

"In addition, twelve other people were injured. However, after so many days, the injured have gradually recovered."

Luo Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He could still accept such casualties.

"The pension of 1 gold coin for each fallen person must continue to be paid."

Luo Ning thought for a moment and said, "I will entrust Galil to deliver the two guards from Wushanbao to their families."

In order to gather troops, Luo Ning promised at Wushan Castle that as long as he was willing to follow him to Shanlin Town, he would be given a pension of 1 gold coin if he died in battle.

This is not considered a broken promise.

"In addition to pensions, the families of fallen soldiers will also enjoy tax relief. Their families will be exempted from hard labor for the next five years, and they will only need to pay half of the tax."

Luo Ning looked at Rydal and Wilson, "If we recruit new recruits in the future, we can inform you of this in advance."

"Yes, sir!"

Luo Ning glanced at everyone, "Although it is a happy thing for me to become the Viscount of Wubei Territory this time, apart from the joy, I hope everyone will not relax their nerves. After all, this is just the beginning."

Putting aside the external environment, Wubei Territory wants to develop and grow, and there are still many things waiting for them to do.

But this sentence made everyone's eyes light up.

Among this group of people, James and Horn want to restore their ancestral glory, Joffrey, Bablin and others want to get rid of their savage identities and build their careers, David and others want to become canonized knights, Chahar wants to be a butler, and Wilson also wants to To improve the class...

They are all people with dreams, and now that Luo Ning has given them hope, they will naturally not miss it.

"I will follow you to the death!"

Luo Ning was very satisfied with this reaction. He smiled and said, "Starting from tomorrow, McCann, you will be responsible for training the guards and taking over the defense of Swamp Town."

"Ruidal, the training of new recruits will continue. We need more soldiers to patrol the Wubei Territory."

Redal nodded, "Sir, there are still cavalry, infantry and archers in Leisen's knight team, and they are now under the supervision of the Black Collar Tribe."

"As long as these people choose to surrender, they can stay and continue to use it," Luo Ning said.

It takes a lot of energy and time to train an ordinary person into a qualified soldier.

Although this group of people were once loyal to Leisen, they were no longer there. As long as they obeyed orders and obeyed the command, Luo Ning didn't mind continuing to use them.

"I understand, sir."

In fact, Ruidal had such a plan to keep them here.

"And the most important thing."

Luo Ning said: "Moving between Houshuang Town, Shanlin Town, Huitu Village, and Black Collar Village will be very frequent. In order to ensure safety on the road, it is necessary to organize cavalry to patrol the routes along the way, and at the same time, when danger is discovered, , it must be cleared in time.”

Communication between villages is inevitable.

Among other things, Wilson needs to take his assistants and village chiefs to other places to guide agricultural planting work.

In addition, communication and intermarriage between villagers, transportation of food, and transportation of silk and porcelain produced later all require a safe route.

"Now that there are no enemies in Wubei Territory, the formation of a hunter team mentioned before must be put on the agenda."

Luo Ning said: "Strive to clear all the dangerous spots around Marsh Town, Shanlin Town and several villages as soon as possible." (End of Chapter)
