I am a god in another world

Chapter 188: Blood Claws of the Founding Army

Bloodclaw is a smart man, Gavin understood it after giving a little hint.

These fifty kilometers were swept away in a bloody and bloody way.

Regardless of whether it is a goblin den, a kobold cave, a bandit camp, an orc camp, or a hobgoblin tribe, they are all dealt with in one go, but the methods are not so cruel. As long as they are willing to be coerced, Bloodclaw will not kill without restraint.

Only those human gathering points and the caravans on the high road did not dare to move - this was Gavin's repeated warnings. The consequences of moving them would be serious and might attract Cormyr's war mages and the Purple Dragon Legion.

The Blood Claws also used the same tactics as the Black Death, driving out the captured monster tribes as vassal troops. They did all the work of charging into the battle. They only benefited from the back, and absorbed the strong ones by the way.

By the time they arrived at the location designated by Gavin, Bloodclaw had overfulfilled the task.

The entire army was not only almost integrated, but its number also increased to more than 3,000.

But not all of them were strong and strong. More than a thousand of them were women, children, old and weak of various races.

Except for the nearly two hundred kobolds who were singled out by Gavin and sent to Eagle Cliff Town, he threw the rest to Blood Claw.

What he wants to build is a military town, not a military camp. These non-combatants are also needed. At least with them, the soldiers can be freed from chores such as washing and cooking, and some tasks such as gathering, hunting, and farming. Tasks can also be given to them.

The food collected was enough to feed these three thousand people for three full months.

In order to avoid waste, part of the meat that could not be eaten was transported to Yingya Town overnight.

It was late spring and early summer, with lush vegetation and abundant prey. The lives of each tribe were relatively easy, and they had more or less surplus food, all of which had been looted by the Blood Claws.

Gavin and Bloodclaw stood side by side on the top of the slope, pointing down and saying: "General Bloodclaw, what do you think of this place I chose for you?"

Blood Claw looked around, with a serious and almost stern face, he squeezed out a smile and said: "In front of the main commercial road, it is easy to attack, with the back of the valley and deep river, there is a strategic and deep space, it is typically easy to defend but difficult to attack, give it to me In three months, I will build this place into a military fortress. Every caravan passing by on the high road must act according to our expressions. If they don't leave enough goods, they can't even think of passing by. "

Gavin was still smiling at the beginning, but when he heard the end, he froze and shook his head repeatedly: "General Bloodclaw, I didn't choose your camp here for you to rob. On the contrary, I chose this place for you to rob. What you are guarding is to ensure the safety of the surrounding trade routes, especially the high roads, and prevent any robberies from occurring.

From today on, I hope that you and your army will change their thinking. You will no longer be a war group, no longer living by looting, but a people with territory and belonging. Your words and deeds will represent me. , represents the entire Dragon Oak Territory. In a few days, I will send you a few deputies, and they will tell you what you should do and what you should not do. "

Gavin decided to assign a mature and stable supervisor to the Blood Claws, not for their loyalty, but to regulate their behavior.

Their origin determines that they have no moral bottom line, and they do those illegal and evil things without any psychological burden.

Bloodclaw's eyes flickered, and he nodded and said: "Even if the Lord doesn't do this, I will take the initiative to ask you to do it. After all, we are used to being wild outside, and we can't distinguish the importance of some things. Once done, we will not be able to do it." It wouldn’t be nice if you do what you should do to the lord and cause trouble to the territory.”

"Those three hundred kobolds will stay here for some time to come to help you build a military town. Although they are small in size, they are definitely good at digging holes." Gavin pointed down. , said the busy kobolds.

While waiting for the arrival of Blood Claw and the others, Gavin was not idle during the ten days. He transferred 300 kobolds from Eagle Cliff Town to start laying out the foundation and planning the construction in advance. The outline has now begun to take shape.

"This requires no introduction from the lord. Our entire Bloodclaw tribe is fully aware of this." Bloodclaw replied with a smile.

Gavin smiled and patted his forehead and said: "Forget, forget, forget that your former neighbors were the Trap Tribe. Even among kobolds, their hole-digging ability is one of the best, so I won't waste any more money." Now that I have enough words, let me introduce you to a colleague, Goss, Goss..."

After hearing the news, Goss immediately dropped his work, ran over, nodded and bowed: "Lord, you call me."

Now Goss is obviously taller and stronger than before.

After all, his talent was limited. Even after taking dragon blood potion, he could not open the dragon blood template. He only awakened the advanced dragon vein kobold. His only magic-like ability was relatively stronger, which was the second-level soft stone technique.

If nothing else happens, this is probably the limit of his life.

Goss was quite satisfied with this. After all, he had surpassed most of the kobolds. As long as he was not left too far behind by the large army, it would be fine.

What makes me sit in my current position is not relying on my intelligence or ability, but on my loyalty.

I believe that as long as I maintain this, I will always have a place among the leaders of the Dragon Oak Territory, no matter how high or low I am.

"This is Director Goss. He will be responsible for leading these kobolds. If the general has anything to do, you can communicate with him directly. If you cannot reach a consensus, wait until I come to solve it together."

"This is General Blood Claw, the supreme leader here, coordinating all matters here, including the construction of the military town. Director Goss, you have to cooperate with the general's work."

Gavin introduced the two new and old subordinates to each other.

The two stood together, forming a sharp contrast.

One was just over one meter tall, bowed his head and looked flattering.

The other was two meters and three meters tall, with a straight back and a serious expression.

When they looked at each other, they didn't look very pleasing to the eye.

But because of Gavin's face, the two had to shake hands awkwardly, and they formed a temporary cooperation team.

"Okay, you go and get busy." Gavin waved his hand, drove Goss away, and then said, "I plan to name this army Blood Claw and this place Blood Claw Town. I wonder if the general has any objection?"

Blood Claw's face was full of surprise and he said, "This is my greatest honor."

Being able to name an army and a town after himself is undoubtedly the greatest recognition of himself.

"You deserve this honor. I hope you will not live up to this name." Gavin knew very well that this iron-blooded soldier attached great importance to reputation. When his name was tied to this army, he would definitely do his best to maintain this army. "How is the statistics work of the Blood Claw Army going?"

"It has been completed." Speaking of the specific situation of the army, Blood Claw opened his mouth, "Currently, there are more than 1,400 earth elf soldiers, including 320 wolf cavalry, the rest are infantry, more than 400 orcs, 38 bear goblins, and more than 1,300 women, children and the weak of various tribes."

"What about the combat professionals who have opened the professional template?"

"A total of 234."

"What about the armor rate and weapon status?"

"The armor rate is less than 20%, and the iron holding rate is less than 30%."

The Blood Claw Army looks powerful now, but in fact, its combat effectiveness is not as strong as imagined.

That is to say, it can only deal with those weak monster groups. If they are really pulled out, let alone fight a field battle with the regular army.

Even if they fight against several purple dragon patrols, they will not be able to get any good results.

At low levels, weapons and equipment are very important.

With good weapons and equipment, even non-combatants can still defeat low-level combatants.

If there are magic weapons and magic equipment.

Well, this matter is just a thought.

Even if there is a regular army supported by a country, the popularity rate of magic equipment is not high.

Like the Yaling of Chunya Castle, that is a special case. Their foundation has been accumulated over countless years.

Their Yaling armor production rate is extremely low, and only a few pieces are produced in a year. It is not enough for themselves, let alone supporting Gavin.

"We don't need to maintain so many troops now. We value quality over quantity. We will gather all the weapons and armor, keep the wolf cavalry and the same number of infantry, and evenly distribute the combatants among them as captains.

The rest will maintain the basic training of the militia, and focus all their energy on building Blood Claw Town. When I find a way to get enough weapons and equipment, I will select the best from them and add them to the regular army." Gavin made strategic adjustments and deployments based on the situation in Dragon Oak Territory and the surrounding areas.

"Yes, sir." Blood Claw knew very well that Gavin's arrangement was very reasonable.

It can not only guarantee the combat effectiveness of the Blood Claw Army to the greatest extent, but also have enough power to deter the surroundings.

Under normal circumstances, it is enough to maintain more than 300 earth spirit wolf cavalry.

The extra 300 infantry are mainly for defense preparation.

After the general direction is determined, the remaining small details are easy to say, but they cannot be explained in a few words. They still need to be discovered in practice.

Although Gavin delegated the power to Blood Claw in the work of reorganizing the army, it does not mean that he will not participate at all.

Military power is the most important thing for a territory.

Gavin can't hand it over to outsiders, let alone simply rely on a true god's blood oath.

Establish power, establish prestige, and establish trust.

As long as the three are established, this army can be firmly controlled.

Gavin has an innate advantage in establishing power. The true god's blood oath has helped him solve this problem perfectly. His ownership of this army is beyond doubt.

Establishing trust means rewarding and punishing in moderation. This is a long-term job. As long as it is integrated into daily words and deeds, it will be done naturally.

Establishing prestige is the most difficult to grasp, because people's hearts are the most difficult to measure. No one knows how much prestige you have in the hearts of others.

But there is one thing that must be done, that is, to make everyone familiar with you, at least let everyone know you and know your existence.

So, in the next period of time, Gavin ran to Blood Claw Town whenever he had free time.

Living and eating together is not possible, but training together is not a problem. Gavin will maintain a considerable amount of training every day anyway, and training is training wherever it is.

Every day, Gavin does not come from Eagle Cliff Town on a dragon, but runs wildly in combat armor.

It only takes fifteen or sixteen minutes to travel seven kilometers of mountain roads.

Gavin's daily training intensity is a little surprising even for Blood Claw, who is also a training maniac.

Only those who are in the combat profession can barely keep up, and many of those who are not in the combat profession are exhausted and fall on the road.

Actual combat training is also indispensable.

At the beginning, the soldiers of the Blood Claw Army were somewhat restrained.

But when they found that even if Bloodclaw himself went down, it would be difficult to hurt Gavin, they stopped being polite and would attack in groups of three or five.

So far, the most they sent out was a sneak attack by eight people, including two bugbears, but they were beaten back.

Although they relied on the strong protective power of the battle armor, their fighting skills and bravery in the battle were real.

To deal with these rough soldiers and to subdue them is the simplest, most brutal, and fastest way to build relationships.
