I am a god in another world

It didn't take long for the hobgoblins to respect Gavin not only from the influence of Silver Destiny Milestone and True God's Blood Oath, but from the bottom of their hearts.

Respect the strong and obey the strong.

This is the usual custom of the hobgoblins.

During the training break, Blood Claw asked doubtfully: "Lord, since Black Well Town is rich in iron ore, why don't we open a furnace to smelt iron ourselves? Just forge weapons and equipment ourselves?"

While Gavin was integrating into the Blood Claw Army, Blood Claw was also actively learning about his new lord and the territory he belonged to.

Some secret things have not been touched upon yet, but on the surface, they are almost understood.

"I do have the intention, but we don't have technicians who know how to smelt iron in our territory. What's more, the small body of a kobold is not suitable for this kind of work." Gavin has had this intention for a long time, "Is it possible that any of you understand this? of?"

"As long as we have the raw materials, it shouldn't be a problem." Blood Claw said confidently, "Our technology is definitely not as good as the dwarves, but we will definitely have no problem producing the finished product."

"As long as we can produce finished products, even if they are of poor quality, even if we don't use them ourselves, our profits will be doubled several times." Gavin paced back and forth, "Let's do this, you can gather the talents in this field in General Town. , let’s have a meeting first to study it.”

"Okay, I'll go right away." Bloodclaw acted resolutely and turned around to summon the relevant personnel.

Gavin found a chair and sat down, closed his eyes and entered self-hypnosis, preparing to dig into Zhang You's memory to see if he had any knowledge in this area.

In that era of information explosion, you might have ingested this information without even realizing it.

Although Gavin's professional level has not improved recently, his soul consciousness has been continuously strengthened.

Especially the integration of the phantom of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree and the opening of the Dragon Oak Dreamland raised his soul consciousness to a new realm.

The control of the mind has gone up several levels.

Take the knowledge index.

In the past, Gavin could only rely on stupid methods to recall and dig out bit by bit, which wasted time and effort.

Now Gavin only needs to focus on the information he wants to retrieve. All information will pop up just like opening a search engine. As long as it is relevant, it will pop up.

You just need to go deep into the memories one by one. It really shouldn't be too convenient.

This search didn't matter, I really found a lot of useful things for him.

Fried steel method, steel pouring method, soil blast furnace steelmaking method.

There were actually three of them.

The origin of these methods also made Gavin dumbfounded.

It turned out to be popular science among the powerful authors in the online novels that Zhang You was obsessed with.

Only theoretical knowledge, no practice at all.

Let’s see if we can combine it with the hobgoblin’s iron-forging method, combining the earth and the foreign, to come up with something new.

Bloodclaw came back soon, followed by eight big and thick hobgoblins, two of whom had experience in iron smelting, and six of them were blacksmiths in their own tribes, doing a lot of tinkering and forging.

It's just that the experience of these people comes from their own words and deeds, which really makes them powerless when it comes to theoretical knowledge.

In desperation, Gavin simply took them directly to Heijing Town, found a remote area in the back mountain, and entered the field test.

Whether it is iron smelting or steel making, it is not done in one go.

All kinds of preparation work took more than ten days.

The various raw materials needed were pieced together.

If it can be solved on the spot, solve it on the spot.

Those that cannot be solved on the spot are left to those merchants. As long as they have money, these merchants are very powerful. They dare to sell even ballistas and catapults to the kobolds, let alone a few trucks of coal.

Just as the iron-smelting furnace was taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye, Gavin left in a hurry with his bloody claws, handing over these tasks to the hobgoblin craftsmen.

Anyway, Gavin's theoretical knowledge has been instilled in them in these few days. He is of little use here. The rest depends on constant experimentation and exploration.

Under the leadership of Gavin and Bloodclaw, three hundred Bloodclaw wolf cavalry sneaked into the mountains silently.

…

A large caravan, consisting of a hundred carts and guarded by a hundred elite cavalry, passed through the shadow cracks from the northern horse road, passed by Tifanton, turned directly to the high road, and drove in unhurriedly. rocky ground.

Put aside the hundred elite cavalry, let's not worry about it for the moment.

Just talking about the flags fluttering in the wind on the big car can scare away most of the gangsters.

In the center of the flag, there is a huge blood-red feather that is falling in the wind - the Crimson Feather Flag.

This is the symbol of the Crimson Feathers, a large business group. Their reputation around the Moon Sea is second only to the Zhentarim, and they are known as the second dark intelligence network.

Their behavior is very similar to that of the Zhentarim.

He also controls a city as his base - Yuanshan City.

They also have their own army to escort their caravans along the way.

His acting style is equally ruthless and ruthless, and he will do whatever it takes.

Once something is named second.

This shows that it is difficult for him to surpass the first place, and this has always been his goal.

This is the case with the Crimson Feathers, whose relationship with the Zhentarim is extremely ambiguous.

For the control of the Moon Sea region, the competition between the two is very obvious, and it has reached an incandescent level in many places.

But for the sake of profit, they will collude with each other, use each other, and trip each other up in private.

When faced with powerful external forces trying to enter the Moon Sea area, the two are firm allies and will not give other forces the opportunity to get involved in the Moon Sea area.

Such a strong dragon does not exist in the surrounding area at present, so the relationship between the two is the former.

Compared with the Zhentarim.

The second place of the Crimson Feather is well-deserved.

Not only is their overall strength inferior to the Zhentarim, but their degree of evil is also inferior to him.

At least it has not reached the point where everyone shouts and beats it. Even if it enters the territory, the Purple Dragon Legion of Cormier will turn a blind eye.

If it is a caravan of the Zhentarim, even if it does not bring armed cavalry, it is impossible to enter the country.

The leader of the Crimson Feather Cavalry is a young man named Cliff, who is about 30 years old, but has a resolute expression, is weathered, and has rich escort experience. After circling around the caravan.

He rode to a truck in the center of the caravan and whispered to Darcy, the leader of the caravan who was smoking leisurely, "Leader, my eyelids have been twitching since entering the rocky land. I always feel that something is wrong with this mission."

Although Darcy didn't care, he instinctively knocked his pipe, sat up straight and asked, "What's wrong? Tell me."

He has been able to stand firm in the high-risk business of merchants for more than 30 years because of his prudence, caution, and willingness to listen to advice.

When it comes to safety, it's always right to listen more, especially to the leader of the security guard.

"Those tyranny believers obviously have their own caravans, why do they still ask us to transport them?" The tyranny believers in Cliff's mouth refer to the Zhentarim.

"You're talking about this matter!" Darcy breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Since we left the Shadow Rift, we have encountered several waves of Purple Dragon patrols along the way. You should know it best. Do you think those tyranny believers can pass such frequent inspections without revealing their tracks? Once their whereabouts are revealed, the confiscation of goods is a small matter. I'm afraid that the entire caravan will be wiped out as bandits. Do you think they will take so many valuable goods to gamble? The relatively good relationship between our Yuanshan City and Cormier is our biggest advantage here." Cliff shook his head and said, "Commander, that's not what I'm talking about." After hesitating for a while, looking around, the cavalry leader lowered his voice and said, "The main thing is that I don't trust that group of tyranny believers. I heard that their current behavior is very bad. Their style of doing things is getting more and more despicable. They often rob other people's goods and then sell them at a high price to merchants who are eager to fulfill their contracts after being robbed.

Sometimes, they even directly replace those merchants, use the robbed goods to cooperate with buyers, and then blackmail those merchants who fail to fulfill their contracts. It is said that many small and medium-sized merchants have been ruined. "

Dulce's eyes narrowed involuntarily and said, "I have also heard of this rumor, so what you are worried about is..."

"I am worried that they will play the same trick with us, and when we are about to reach our destination, they will rob the goods, and then turn around and accuse us and ask us to compensate for the goods." Cliff revealed his biggest worry.

"Will they be so bold?" Darcey's pupils shrank again involuntarily, "If we do this, if we are not careful, it will provoke a full-scale war between the two sides."

"These crazy people can do anything." Cliff snorted coldly.

"The goods are on the way, it's a bit late to say this." Darcy thought as he refilled his pipe with ash, "We have to be on guard against this situation, but even if they do, they won't do it in the Rocky Land. Here they still need us to pass through the checkpoints and fortresses guarded by the Purple Dragon Legion along the way." Cliff agreed with this analysis and nodded, "If they really want to do this, the most suitable place to do it is still the Goblin Border, the Far Sea Swamp or the Thun Swamp. They can use the monster tribes there to do it, and then push all the responsibilities onto those monsters. This is their usual method." "In this way, we still have nearly ten days of buffer. . "Dulce pondered, "So, make two preparations, send people back to Yuanshan to request support, and transfer two, no, five elite cavalry over. If the Zhentarim brothers don't use such dirty means, it's fine. If they do, not only will their claws be chopped off, but they will also be caught in the act, so that the city lord and others can hold them accountable later.

After arriving at the next larger Purple Dragon Fortress, we will repair on the spot and wait for reinforcements to arrive. I believe that they are here and dare not move us while guarding the Purple Dragon Legion. "

"The commander has made very thorough arrangements. I will send someone to do it now." Cliff breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared most was that Darcey didn't care about his opinion at all and was indifferent to it.

Before Cliff took action, several sentinels with bright red feathers on their helmets ran back, shouting loudly as they ran: "High alert, high alert, the road ahead is blocked, the road ahead is blocked."

As the information was transmitted, not only the nerves of the armed cavalry were tense, but even the drivers couldn't help but draw out their weapons.

The closure of the trade route is most likely a precursor to a battle.

This is a common tactic used by bandits and monster tribes.

The purpose is to keep the caravan in place so that they can launch an attack.

This time is no exception.

The scouts shouted loudly and blew the attack horn.

Countless monsters emerged from the ridges on both sides of the trade route, waving a variety of weapons and charging towards the Crimson Feather Caravan.

These monsters were of mixed composition, including goblins, hobgoblins, orcs and gnolls, but the number of kobolds was the largest, accounting for nearly one-third of them.
