King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 113 Food Crisis.

"What, something went wrong with Bruno, what happened?" Charles became worried. He was worried that they would have an accident, but something really went wrong.Sure enough, the more you worry about something, the more you will come

"Were they defeated? Or did they let Giacomo go? Anyway, what happened?"

Carlos replied with a strange expression, "No, they captured too many people and ate up their own food."

"Huh? How many people?"

"More than 2500 people."

"Ah?" Charles was very confused. The Silver Fox Infantry Regiment had a total of more than 4000 people. He has now captured nearly 3000 people, and hundreds of people have been killed.How did Bruno capture more than 2500 people, could it be that they fell from the sky?
"My lord, what shall we do?"

"Support quickly, first bring 100 carts of food to see what happens."

At noon that day, Charles set off with a hundred tauren, accompanied by 300 captives, responsible for escorting food.They went all the way down the Als River, and arrived at Bruno's position in half a day.

More than 2500 people?Is it less?
Shire looked over, and there were huge crowds everywhere, all of them were human beings, not even a few tauren could be seen, there must be three or four thousand people.

At this time, Bruno finally saw the savior. He ran over quickly and cried and said, "Master Priest, you are finally here. These humans are really terrible, and we can't drive them away."

"How many people are there now?"

"I don't know, humans come and surrender every moment."

Charles quickly asked him how he did it, and Bruno told him everything he did.

Good guy, is this an alien version of a pyramid scheme?Why didn't he think of such a good way? According to his current moral level, it shouldn't be unexpected.

Feeling overwhelmed, Charles immediately ordered Bruno and others to unload the food and quickly bury the pot to make food. First, the needs of these people were solved. Since he promised to eat enough, he could not break his promise.

Of course, while cooking for them, they also counted their numbers.

There were more than 4000 people, and they ate six carts of grain for one meal.

This made Charles worry, it was broken, and the food shortage in Winter Fortress was even greater.

The next day, Charles immediately reorganized the army and gathered the troops in one place.Now there are more than 600 Tauren soldiers, more than 7000 prisoners, and more than 1000 carts of food.

People without thought, he must worry about.After victory, troubles follow.

Now the tauren soldiers in Noxus consume an average of 4 catties of food a day, and more than 600 people can eat less than 3 carts of food a day.The captives consumed an average of 1.5 catties of food a day, and these 7000 people had to consume less than 11 carts of food a day.

In other words, as soon as Shire opens his eyes every day, 14 carts of food are gone.

These more than 1000 carts of grain, more than 100 million catties, seem to be a lot, but in fact they cannot last for many days.And this is not counting the 10000 serfs in the Church of Light, the more than 3000 human leaders in Winter Fortress, and the more than 9000 tauren leaders.

Food!It's so difficult.

There is magic in this world, why not research a kind of magic, let the seeds ripen with a slap

Charles threw the quill on the parchment and ordered the guards to call Carlos and Henry over.

The first thing to deal with is meritorious deeds.

"Bruno, this time you are in charge of cutting off their back route. You did a good job. I plan to promote you as the captain of the transport team." After Charles finished speaking, he explained to himself that the transport team was to be formed next.Independent of the Noxus Second Corps, it is responsible for transporting food and grass.

Under normal circumstances, the establishment is about 500 people. In case of war, serfs can be temporarily recruited according to Shire's order to provide food and grass for the fighting corps.

Bruno thought for a while. Now there are only two legions in Noxus. He is now the captain of the centurion. Although he has made great contributions, it is impossible to replace the leader of Henry's legion.It is also good to be the head of the army of the transport team.

After dealing with Bruno's reward, Charles proposed another name, Randolph.

This person has brought more than 1000 people to Noxus, and his credit is too great, so it is not appropriate to reward venison.

Carlos was the first to object, "Master Baron, this guy is despicable and shameless, I don't think he should be rewarded"

Henry neither agreed nor objected, he just didn't speak.

"My lord priest, I think what Carlos said is right, just give him a few wild deer." Bruno also objected, this guy used the villagers to deceive him, pure bad breed.

"It's not the practice of the Noxus family not to reward those who have meritorious service." Charles glanced at Carlos, who was a little lost in the battle, and couldn't recognize himself.Who are they in Winter Fortress, murderers, robbers, orcs... how can they have the face to pick other people's moral standards.

Besides, as far as Noxus is concerned, those people with high moral character and ability will not even take a look at them.

Charles continued, "But since you are not willing, then I will not put him in the legion. Give him two choices, one, reward him with twenty gold Nair and two hundred sheep, two, Sneak into the Silver Fox collar, be responsible for delivering information, and give him a staff of 100 people and financial support."

After a while, the guard in charge of delivering the message came back, and Randolph chose the second one.

Charles simply gave him a sum of money and asked him to go directly to the Silver Fox collar. Whether he absconded or really wanted to do something in the Silver Fox collar, Charles would not lose money.

After all, a hero should be treated generously, a daughter should buy a horse bone, and Randolph, as the first party to lead the way, must give some dog food after all.

After processing the rewards, Charles continued, "Next, we are going to attack the Sunset Fortress. Do you have any good solutions?"

Carlos first said: "Lord Baron, I think we can cut off their food route. On the one hand, we can seize the opportunity to intercept the food. On the other hand, we can make the Sunset Fortress fall into a food shortage. Without food, they will surrender sooner or later." .”

Charles nodded and looked at Henry again. Henry immediately answered: "Master Priest, we have captured so many slaves, why don't we drive them to attack Sunset Fortress and pile them up with their lives. At the same time, we can also contact The troops on the Korimian Grassland attack Sunset Fortress together."

Charles looked at Bruno again, and Bruno answered, "Master Priest, we have seized so much food and grass, I think we don't need to attack Sunset Fortress, we can set up a few cauldrons outside the fortress, and use food to lure the people inside." The serfs surrender."

Charles silently commented in his heart that Henry's thinking was the same as his temperament, suitable for reckless confrontation, not suitable for tricks and the like, and suitable for fighting dumbly.There will be field battles in the future, and the Noxus Second Infantry Regiment can be sent.

As for Bruno, according to his consistent impression, the tauren didn't have such a brain. They must have learned successful experience in this battle and wanted to make a fresh move and eat it all over the world.

As for Carlos, Charles guessed that the attack on Fortress of the Sunset was a fake, and he still hasn't forgotten to go to Silver Fox to grab it.

The thinking of these three people has a certain possibility, but it is too bad to waste time, food, or human life.

Charles clapped his hands and asked the guards to call up Giacomo, the commander of the Silver Fox Family.
