Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 114 Occupying Mara Town

If Mara Town is conquered, the territory will gain at least a thousand people, but the population can be transformed slowly, but Mara Town cannot be abandoned because of this.

As a transfer station between the north and the south, the geographical location of Mara Town is very important. Whether it is to sit in the north and not move, or to develop in the direction of the empire, Mara Town, which can be attacked, retreated and defended, is indispensable. Therefore, there must be Capable manpower is in charge. On this point, Owen and Maya have reached a consensus.

The problem is that only Currence and Howard are competent in the entire territory, and one is more business-oriented, and the other is more combat-oriented.

The best way is to go together, which can make up for each other, but the territory also lacks talents, and there are a lot of things to do in the spring, and Maya can't rely on Maya for everything.

After hesitating for a moment, thinking that development is still the main focus at the moment, Owen decided to send Currence to sit in Mara Town.

Without further ado, Owen ordered Howard to take the lead in occupying Mara Town, and Currans formed an immigration team to follow closely behind.

Howard, who knew the importance of Mara Town, did not delay at all, mobilized all the cavalry without hesitation, and set off immediately with enough dry food.

Cullens was not idle either. After learning about the new appointment from Owen, his back molars were all exposed.

There is no way, he has been waiting for an opportunity all his life, and now he has the opportunity.

Holding the appointment signed by the lord, Currence rang the bronze bell on the town center, and the farmers who were staying at home in Maodong took up their weapons and walked out regardless of the cold wind outside, and gathered in front of the town center like a tide. on the square.

Although they are farmers, it doesn't mean they can't fight, because Owen let the farmers in the territory take turns to enter the barracks for training, but they haven't changed jobs, but this doesn't prevent them from taking up arms to fight.

Ke Lunsi stood on the high platform in high spirits and announced the lord's order. After a while, all the farmers started to act.

The [-] farmers closest to Currence went home and brought dry food and clothes. The other farmers put on their wagons and began to load the food, tools and materials into the carts. When they were almost ready, the [-] farmers also arrived with their packages on their backs. Beside the carriage, waiting for Currence.

Currence was stunned. He knew that the farmers in the territory were not only capable of work, but also obedient, but he never knew that they were so strong.

But without further ado, there was not so much time for him to be in a daze. Cullens mobilized a hundred infantry as guards and headed for Mara Town.

Before Cullens had gone half way, Howard had already captured Mara Town.

It was not correct to say that it was wrong to fight. Harvey took the heads of his elder brother and second brother and walked around the town. After learning from him that most of the horse thieves had been captured, everyone was silent. After Howard entered the town with elite cavalry After that, everyone became obedient citizens.

If the tribe wants to continue, it must find the man, and to achieve this goal, surrender is their only choice.

Of course, this is because they know that they are valuable and will not be killed, otherwise they will not surrender so easily.

Regardless of whether the nomadic tribes gathered around the town or the original residents of the town are within the scope of relocation, they will be relocated to the territory for domestication. This is the order of the lord. Although Howard doesn't understand it, he firmly implements it.

Under the inspection of the elite cavalry, no one dared to disagree, even the residents of the small town who were reluctant to part with their wealth, because those who had the courage to resist had already died when the horse thieves occupied the town.

After Cullens arrived, Howard seconded his fifty infantrymen to escort everyone back to the territory. These are precious populations.

"Everyone, get moving, we want to rebuild the whole town before the merchants arrive!" Standing in the deserted town, Currence shouted the slogan with great momentum, and the farmers lived up to expectations, with extremely high Efficiency demolished the original building and started rebuilding work.

After igniting the fireplace and opening the Floo network, Currans took out the double-sided mirror and rubbed it. This was the previously set signal. As expected, a female warrior wearing a tight leather jacket and carrying two swords walked out of the fireplace after a while.

Although he is the mayor, Currence still dare not offend the other party, even if the other party is just a soldier, but just by looking at his clothes, he can tell that he has a deep relationship with the lord, and he can't afford to offend him, so he behaves very politely.

The person who came was a witch hunter without a name, because after rebirth they decided to abandon everything in the past, including the name. Now they are the sharp blades in the hands of the master, so they are replaced by numbers, and she is number six.

Taking out the pocket that cast the space expansion spell, casting the spell to transfer the contents out, No. [-] said to Cullens with a blank expression.

"I will come here once a week. If you need anything, prepare a list for me in advance, and I will bring it next time."

Ke Lunsi hurriedly nodded, he was relieved to send the person away with kind words, because he instinctively felt that something was wrong with the other party, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, and he always felt that it was better not to offend the other party, so he disregarded his identity Lower your posture.

After sending off people, looking at the huge pile of materials in front of him, Currence became a little more confident about the next reconstruction project, and immediately got busy without taking a break.

Howard escorted thousands of people back to the territory. It was not easy along the way. Fortunately, there were no accidents. Those people did not think about escaping or rebelling. In addition, the food they brought from Currence was sufficient, and everything was safe. Back to the territory.

After Howard returned, Owen had to stay in the center of the town, and began to transform as soon as the progress value recovered. After all, the thousands of new populations were all unstable factors, especially the small two hundred horse thief captives. A good source of soldiers should not be wasted.

This time, there are a lot of gains, because Owen did not expect that many nomadic tribes and residents of Mara Town could be transformed into civilians. Transformed into cavalry, it can also be trained into a special type of cavalry, nomadic cavalry.

Nomadic cavalry are versatile, they can use scimitars, throwing axes, lasso, and short bows, and they are good at long-distance raids. Except that they are not suitable for charging, they are excellent light cavalry.

Of course, diversification also makes nomadic cavalry have many shortcomings. For example, charging is not as good as Lancers, cavalry is not as good as archers, and defense is not as good as Cuirassiers. However, the combination of several types of cavalry will undoubtedly become extremely powerful. Cavalry.

At the beginning, Owen focused on guarding his one-acre three-point land, and did not pay much attention to the cavalry. Now that the strength of the territory has greatly increased, it is time to expand its influence. As a fist to show strength, the cavalry will undoubtedly be the focus of future development, so The presence of nomadic cavalry was just the icing on the cake.

The meat has been delivered to his mouth, and as long as he eats it, his skill will be greatly increased. No matter how lazy Owen is, he must work hard and try to digest these in a short time, so that he can better cope with the ever-changing changes. The measured situation in the Northland.

After all, the winter in the territory is so lively this year, and the places near the border of the empire will only be more lively.

Owen is not talking nonsense. The Northland Witches Alliance reorganized by Maya has rebuilt the intelligence network, and a lot of information is sent every day, allowing him to keep abreast of the changes on the border of the empire. Therefore, he is very clear about the future situation. It will become more and more serious. If he can't become stronger as soon as possible, it will be useless for him to live a leisurely life as a nobleman.
