The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 121 Population Increase
In addition to doing some small experiments on his trophies, Allen also checked his fiefdom on the Calradia continent when he woke up. After all, he also earns several thousand dinars a month. With the end of the war between Swadia and Rhodok, the borders between the two countries gradually settled down, and business began to resume immediately.

For Wincord Castle, which guards a river, the taxes are gradually increasing in such days. If you save for a year, you still have tens of thousands of dinars. This money is enough for Allen to buy a few dinars in the simulator. Ten sets of chain armor, although the quality is not as good as the dwarves' mail or plate armor, but they can't hold him fast, and they are purchased directly from the simulator, which means that you don't need to spend any money in Middle Earth. The town's strength increase is very important.

But there are also some side effects, that is, Allen needs to open the simulator from time to time, go to his fief to check if there are other problems, especially wars between countries, if he wants to attack Uxhall, like Castles like Fort Wincord will definitely be besieged by large enemy forces immediately.

In the previous simulation, Alan, as a feudal noble in the family, went to Uxhall to attend the family banquet. Needless to say, the envy and jealousy of family and relatives, some people who think they have skills want to join Alan. Obtaining some rights is also something Allen can imagine, but there is an old acquaintance, which makes Allen feel a little uncomfortable.

That person is the bearded general who commanded the crossbowmen to shoot and kill Allen when Alan came to Uxhall to rescue the captives as a young Hunter. Of course, the meeting this time must be a happy scene, but this The situation made Allen wonder, if he had simulated enough times and gained a place in every country, would he be able to obtain the achievement of "Six Kingdoms Seal" in disguise, and even in future battles, would he touch the To the situation where you fight yourself.

Thinking about it further, if random members of the royal family become the kings of various countries, wouldn't it be a unified continent in disguise?

Of course, these are extremely distant things. During the month when Allen was in a coma, there was still a little friction in the Kingdom of Swadia. The main reason was the conflict caused by Allen's fiefdom.

Within the territory of Fort Wincord, there used to be a village named Yeruige. One village and one castle were originally integrated, just like the relationship between Wilderness Town and Shepherd Horse Village.

After the war, most of Ye Ruige's villagers would enter Fort Wincord to avoid the looting of the enemy lords, and in normal times, Ye Ruige's villagers also had the obligation to provide supplies and services to the defenders in the castle.

However, these two pieces of land are now in the hands of different families. In particular, Alan's process of obtaining the castle was so inappropriate. The consequence is that in the process of getting along with the two families, it is inevitable that something will happen. some conflicts.

Although the simulator is in the process of hosting, it maintains the cooperation between the two places according to Allen's personality, mainly by spending some dinars to buy some services and supplies, that is, it would rather suffer some losses than To maintain the peaceful coexistence between the two, but there are always some subordinates who are good at guessing people's hearts and stab the matter to Earl Dilinard.

As a powerful family that owns a town, three castles, and dozens of villages in the kingdom, it is naturally impossible to turn a blind eye to such provocations. Of course, the most important thing is that most people in the family want to include Ye Ruige into their own family In the management, after all, there are a lot of young descendants without fiefdoms.

Therefore, amidst the violent yells of Earl Harlengoth, Allen's family and the Earl of Sweden, who occupied Fort Tilbert, launched a large-scale battle on the plains around Dherim, and the result was naturally It is obvious that Fort Tilbert soon fell into a state of siege.

In the end, under the mediation of King Harlaus, Earl Harlengoth took out a large sum of dinars and "purchased" the title of Yerigol from the Earl of Sweden. This kind of thing is rare in Calradia. It happened, and it was a humiliation for the Count of Sweden. However, he was already a prisoner, and he couldn't care too much about this kind of thing. Freedom was very important to everyone, especially the nobles.

Then Ye Ruige was entrusted to Alan's cousin, who belonged to the same family, and the obligations between the two fiefdoms returned to the previous state again. The benefit to Alan was that it saved a large amount of dinars, It increased his income by about a quarter to 2500 dinars per month, which should have been more, but cousins ​​usually send gifts, especially gifts from Alan, If it is more expensive, it can be regarded as paying some fees in disguise.

Allen, who was just lying on the bed, looked at the briefing given by the simulator, and always felt that the Kingdom of Swadia was about to launch a large-scale civil war. Count Harlengos jumped like this, King Harlaus could not If he endured it for too long, then his cheap father in the simulator would definitely be implicated. At that time, he might have to capture King Harlaus again among thousands of troops.

In addition to these, during the period when Allen was in a coma, Rovanian actually experienced a lot of changes. After a battle in Changhu, the strength of the Dongyi people was considered to have suffered a lot of losses. Ah The Shu people took their own tribe, occupied the most fertile land in the Benliu River, and settled down in such a grandiose manner.

Even at the behest of Sauron, Ashur sent envoys to the human kings Thorin II, Thranduil, and Allen, expressing that he wanted to get along peacefully and friendly, but also wanted to redeem Soldiers who returned to themselves captured in battle.

Peace is the result that both sides wanted. The leaders of the three forces agreed to the Dongyi envoy's request, but both sides were thieves and did not specify how long it would take for peace, nor did they sign any credible documents. Verbal agreement is actually useless at all, it is just a trick to deceive the other party, and everyone knows this well.

Allen agreed because he needed time to develop his strength. As for why Sauron did this, Allen couldn't figure out what the Dark Lord was thinking for a while.

As for the other condition, it is definitely impossible to return it. At this moment, all the prisoners of Dongyi are digging mines for the blacksmiths in Wilderness Town in Orc Town. It is impossible for Allen to return these prisoners of war who can play a huge role on the battlefield. To Ashur, even if the condition they proposed was to release the northern slaves one-on-one.

It's not that the value is matched, but that exchanging enemy soldiers for the old, young, women, children, even young and middle-aged people of the northerners is extremely irresponsible to their own soldiers. What kind of harm will it cause to your subordinates?

Those oppressed northerners, Alan will rescue them when the time comes, but not in this way.

But what surprised Allen was that the messenger didn't mention the magic ring left by the ring spirits. He didn't believe that Sauron didn't know about the ring, and it had fallen into his own hands at the moment, but Sauron didn't mention it. Lun naturally became quiet, he didn't want to face Saruman's face at this time.

Alan, who lacks affection for the white-robed wizard, can naturally refuse Saruman's request with the help of equipment. In terms of strength, Saruman, who has not yet started training Orcs, can't beat Alan, but, Saruman is the leader of the White Dao Society. If he persuades other members of the White Dao Society with his words, Alan knows that it will be difficult for him to continuously offend Lady Galadriel, Lord Elrond, Lord Cirdan, and others. Own friend Gandalf.

At that time, you can't just say that Saruman will join Sauron's camp in the future, right?In this period of time, it is difficult for anyone to believe such words. After all, just a year ago, Saruman and other members of the White Daoist Society had just caused a lot of damage to Sauron.

Alan thinks it will take some time for such a troublesome thing, let's talk about it after he has planned it. When Saruman doesn't come to Alan, Alan will find a way to attract his attention. After all, this ring is very important. As far as Allen is concerned, it is useless at all.

As for how to attract Saruman's attention, Alan has already thought about it, and there is a ready-made candidate by his side, that is Radagast who lives in Rossgobel. If the wizard revealed the ring a little bit, and said that it was found near the Anduin River, then Saruman would surely get such news soon.

It's not that Radagast is Saruman's spy, but compared to Gandalf who has been traveling all year round, Saruman pays more attention to the brown robe wizard, and the exchanges between the two are more frequent, although Saruman He really doesn't like his colleague, but it doesn't prevent him from using Radagast's ability to fulfill his own ideas.

For example, a long time ago, Saruman began to use the birds and beasts of Radagast to monitor the Anduin Valley, especially the area around the Golden Iris River. The purpose was naturally for the Supreme Ring. If he picked up a ring nearby, the white-robed wizard would come out of Orthank in a hurry, and then Alan could use other methods to get it from a tower of Orthank without a wizard. to what you want.

As for the method, Alan hasn't figured it out yet, and Alan only knows that the location of the "Star of Elendil" is in Orthank's secret room, and the specific location is unclear. This matter still needs a long period of planning, and it is very difficult. It is more important to develop one's own strength right now.

Under Ashur's attack, the northern humans living in the eastern part of the Black Forest suffered a catastrophe. Most of the young and middle-aged died in the war, and some old and weak women and children became slaves of the Dongyi people.

However, under the guidance of Allen, a large number of people escaped the fate of being enslaved. More than [-] people in Honghe Town are currently settling in the area between Laodukou and Jinluanwei River. With the help of Wilderness Town, They quickly established a brand new large village, and began to reclaim their own fields on the surrounding land. The village they established also had a new name, Iowia.

This name was chosen by Jamila at the suggestion of Allen. This is the name of a village in the Rhodok Kingdom and the place where Jamila's mother was born. It is a very commemorative name.

The old, young, women and children rescued from the valley moved to various regions according to Allen's previous ideas. At this time, the population of Wilderness Town was close to [-] people with various supplements. Under the arrangement of Ra, they are distributed on this vast and fertile land with Wilderness Town as the center.

This piece of land is close to being saturated at this time, and unless the utilization rate of the land can increase again, the population that will increase in the future will have to migrate to the vicinity of Iowia.

The ruins of Changhu Town also increased the population by a considerable amount during this battle. In addition to the hundreds of people who originally lived there, hundreds of northern humans were rescued from the camp of Kulda. Shi also settled in Long Lake, and some of the people rescued from the canyon also arrived there not long ago through the road of the Woodland Kingdom. Now the population of Changhu Town is close to 2000.

The northerners in the Hamish camp, under the guidance of Allen, fled in the direction of River Valley City, and the Lord of River Valley City, Bud, also sent an envoy, and sent a letter a few days ago, In the letter, he stated that he would definitely take good care of these northerners who lost their homes.

Therefore, after a little statistics, Allen suddenly found that the people he ruled had nearly doubled after a battle. This is not counting Heidelberg and River Valley City, which he can indirectly rule, and the half-orcs. Hundreds of Dongyi captives who were mining in the town.

With the explosive growth of the population, various problems followed one after another. The first was the problem of food. Fortunately, Manid finally returned from Eriador. With the help of the innkeeper, he was found by Kress and Grimm during the inspection in the Bree and Shire areas.

Why is it lucky? If Manid really entered the Linton area according to Allen's instructions, it would be difficult for Kress, who was unfamiliar with the place, to find his colleague with the help of Bilbo.

The return of Manid also brought a few merchants from the Bree area. Shire, which is rich in products, will naturally not lack food, and the honey that Alan has begun to produce in small quantities has also attracted these merchants. At the same time, the gold and silver treasures that Alan took out also blinded their eyes.

The trade started naturally under various conditions. Allen also promised these merchants that he would not collect taxes from anyone this year, on the condition that these merchants need to bring a large amount of food to Wilderness Town , of course Allen paid.

The food problem was quickly resolved after Manid's return, but the shortage of troops was difficult to solve in a short period of time.

More than half of Allen's soldiers are still near Heidelberg at this time, defending against possible attacks by the Dongyi people. Although the two sides have reached a verbal peace agreement at this time, Allen will not be defeated because of Sauron's promise. And let your guard down.

In addition, under the leadership of Frey, there are [-] soldiers who manage the Dongyi captives who are digging in the orc town. People have any bad thoughts, so only violence and some torture are the best means.

Allen did not provide them with sufficient food and drinking water. Instead, he asked them to use the ore they dug to exchange for daily necessities for survival, and let them spend all their energy on the goal of living.

Of course, out of production considerations, and Allen didn't really want to starve them to death, so he didn't instruct his soldiers to abuse them, but asked them to maintain the rules of the scene, and don't let those things The Yi people fought first for some food.

Due to the different environments, staying in the dark for a long time is also an unbearable thing for human beings. Therefore, after the peace, Allen spent his wealth to invite some dwarf craftsmen to start a certain scale of orc town. The transformation, try to make this place have an environment that can adapt to human beings.

At the same time, the name of Orc Town is no longer suitable for this intricate cave. Allen gave it a new name, Steel Mining Town, and the two hundred soldiers also need to take on the responsibility of guarding this mining town .

This number of people is actually not enough. After all, there must be some half-orcs living in Moria, and they will attack the former territory at any time.

But Alan has no more troops in his hands, so he can't empty out the wilderness town. In order to deal with this situation, Alan also sent two envoys with his own letters to send Fatis and Alan to the city. Ryan yelled back.

He is going to convene his cabinet members, reorganize his army, and change the way the army serves.
