I am a god in another world

Chapter 504: Initial Framework

Gavin has heard a lot about Darren.

Although he is only fourteen years old, he is the best among the younger generation of Nottburg. He not only has excellent adaptability, but also has enough self-discipline, super resilience and perseverance. He actually carried out Gavin's casual teachings to the end. It is said that the amount of daily training is amazing, not only exceeding most adults, but also many professionals.

The effort is proportional to the reward, which allowed him to start his career template at the age of fourteen.

What really made him stand out was the remaining manuscript of the book of strategy that Gavin gave him casually. He actually learned something from it and put it into practice, leading a group of children to form a boy scout, which played an unexpected role in a battle.

Zhalanda simply made an exception and absorbed him into the Nott Guards, and this became the beginning of his brilliance. He used his mind to convince those Nott veterans. It was also from him that Zhalanda's army soldiers paid more and more attention to the book of strategy.

Unlike those soldiers who respected Lady Strategy for this reason, Darren had a secret in his heart, a secret that only he and the Lord of Zalanda knew. The Book of Strategy was not given to Zalanda by Lady Strategy as outsiders believed, but was written by his own young master Gavin * Nott and handed over to the Lord of Zalanda by himself.

They all believed in the wrong person, and it was Master Gavin who should be respected for this.

However, due to the oath, he had no way to correct other people's views. He could only declare to the outside world that he was Master Gavin's student and everything was taught to him by Master Gavin. Outsiders only thought that he was talking about the training method, not knowing that he was talking about the former Book of Strategy and the current way of war.

"Well, I didn't make a mistake at the beginning. Not only did you complete the task I assigned to you excellently, but you also left me such a big surprise." Gavin stepped forward to help Darren up and laughed happily.

Life is very wonderful.

At first, he didn't realize that Darren was a rough diamond. He did what he wanted, but he didn't expect that he would eventually get a good seedling.

Darren couldn't hide his nervousness, "Master, General Copperfield praised me too much. My ability is not as strong as he said. It is far beyond my ability to let me command so many regular knights and so many people. My life and death is small, but the life and death of countless soldiers and countless civilians is big."

So far, the most he has led is a 100-man ranger.

Now he is suddenly asked to lead a 2,000-man legion, and he has to form it himself. He is a little confused. He can fully express his meaning in this situation. At his age, he is also very capable.

"Sometimes, your own feelings about ability are not as accurate as those of outsiders. I know General Copperfield's personality. He always says what he means and seeks truth from facts. If he says you can do it, you can do it, but you just haven't discovered it yet." Gavin patted Darren's shoulder heavily and encouraged him, "But this matter is not decided by me, but by the Lord of Zalanda. Lord, are you willing to let him go?"

Although the two have a close relationship, and Zalanda clearly wants to send him to the position of Baron Nott and return the original number of Nott's Guards, the process of some things is indispensable.

Because she is in this position, she also represents a group of interests.

"As long as Darren nods himself, I have no objection." Zalanda said straightforwardly.

"Darren." Everyone's eyes were focused on the young man again.

"Darren is willing to follow the young master to death." Darren was excited and wanted to kneel down again, but was grabbed by a big hand like an iron clamp.

"Very good, this matter is settled." Gavin made the decision, "This vanguard army of sidecars will be handed over to Commander Darren. All war horses will be given priority to them. Make sure that each car is equipped with four fast horses, each person has a war horse, one thousand people are equipped with spears, and one thousand people are equipped with crossbows."

The number of horses in Dalaoma is just in short supply, not completely gone. After all, Tesser is a knight kingdom, and horses are an important means of transportation. As long as the manor owners and even farmers have the conditions, they will keep a few horses as a means of transportation.

The two thousand people brought by Copperfield all came on war horses, and some even had one or two spare horses, or pack horses.

These war horses and pack horses are mostly the private property of these warriors and mercenaries, so they naturally cannot be requisitioned at will.

But the excess can be purchased from them at a high price and allocated to places in short supply, which is also what we will do next.

Gavin turned to look at another woman who stood out from the crowd and said, "Ms. Kaelissa, I would like to ask you to serve as the deputy commander of this legion, lead all the Goliaths, form General Darren's personal guard, and assist him in controlling the entire army."

Just now he had scanned Darren's specific attributes. He was not a warrior, but a battlefield mage, a spellcasting profession unique to Tesser, with only three professional levels.

This kind of mage usually undergoes various military training from a young age, and does not require high mage knowledge, because this profession gives up some of the regular mage's upgrades (only half of the regular mage's spell slots), specializing in combat casting and wand use.

The professional level of the three battlefield mages is enough to allow them to use three-ring spell wands like ordinary mages of level six. The most representative ones are naturally the fireball wand and the paralysis wand, making them spell turrets on the battlefield, providing group attacks and control support.

His attributes are well-proportioned, all above 12 points, and the highest is naturally intelligence, reaching 14 points.

In front of Gavin's group of monsters, it is naturally not enough, but in the case of peers, especially in the absence of basic education, it is already considered to be born with high intelligence.

Want to control an army, especially an army with a majority of unruly mercenaries.

As Copperfield said, personal combat power is Darren's biggest shortcoming. It is too late to use the elite grace of Zalanda's way of war to catalyze and upgrade to extraordinary.

Gavin can only equip him with a powerful deputy general and a group of powerful guards. This group of tall and strong Goliaths with amazing melee ability are undoubtedly the best choice.

"Yes, sir." Kailisha stood up and responded.

When she agreed to help Gavin and escort the Dalaoma immigrants to the valley, she had already adjusted her mentality and regarded herself as one of Gavin's soldiers.

This time, Gavin turned to the young man who was a little confused and seemed to be dreaming and said, "Don't rush to refuse. You will know whether you can do it after trying. Keep this book. This is a brand new way of war. It contains records about the application of sidecars and chariot formations. I give you three days to come up with a set of drafts for the establishment of the vanguard army and the specific use of chariot formations. Don't worry about right or wrong, think boldly. Establishing a legion is not just your job. We will also assist in some preparatory work."

This matter is only a preliminary decision. Whether Darren can be the commander of the sidecar legion depends on his performance in the future.

Darren was now being forced to do something. He took the copy of the Way of War from Gavin and said loudly, "I will do my best to complete this task, but I have a request. Please allow me, Master and the Lord of the City."

"Speak."

"Can the cavalry brigade I originally led be transferred to me?"

After Gavin and Zalanda looked at each other, Gavin nodded and said, "As long as you can convince them to follow you, it's fine, but I have to warn you in advance that nepotism is not advisable, especially for a newly formed legion."

Darren saluted respectfully and said, "I will follow the Master's teachings. I just need my own trusted spies to help me understand and control the entire army. As for how far they can go, it depends on their abilities. I will not promote them arbitrarily because of their relationship with us, nor will I not reward them for their merits to avoid suspicion."

Gavin laughed, "You see, you have successfully taken the first step. Keep working hard in this direction. You can sit down too."

With a wave of his hand, Gavin ordered someone to add another seat.

Darren couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down, but he didn't dare to sit down, so he just sat in a corner.

Regardless of age or strength, he felt inexplicably weak sitting in this room.

This is a normal phenomenon of skipping levels for promotion. He still needs some time to adapt. The most important thing is to accumulate his self-confidence. The simplest way is to quickly accumulate outstanding military exploits, which is not something you can have just by wanting.

Gavin ignored Darren's thoughts, but turned to Nora and said, "The Nott Guards also need to be expanded. I will give you a thousand quota. Whether you recruit from immigrants or find a way from those mercenaries, before you set off, set up a rack for me and recruit enough."

For a migration team of more than 10,000 people, a cavalry team of 100 people is too few.

A thousand people is still based on the situation that there is a Blood Claw Legion in front to help them open the way.

"Guarantee to complete the task." Nora responded confidently.

The 100 Nott Guards in her hand were originally used as seeds. Each person brought ten recruits, which was a legion of 1,000 people.

As for the running-in training, it can only be done on the road.

After a series of appointments, the framework of the entire immigration team has been basically built, and the next step is to stuff civilians into it.

There are still several key appointments left, and Gavin no longer consults everyone's opinions, but directly decides: "Anna, you will serve as the quartermaster and captain of the medical team for this immigration, responsible for coordinating the supplies we carry, organizing all the priests and doctors among the immigrants, forming a medical team, and handling various medical affairs.

Laura, you are responsible for controlling all the tree people and enlightenment trees, assisting Anna in the supervision and distribution of supplies and other related matters. You must formulate the corresponding procedures as soon as possible to ensure the control of supplies. "

This matter is naturally the top priority.

People eat and horses chew, and the food consumed every day will be a terrifying number. There must be a special team to manage it and trustworthy people to control it.

Gavin is now determined to train Anna in this direction.

Although Anna is still a little scared, she doesn't know the specific scale of this immigration. In addition, she has accumulated some experience in Anfei Village, so this time she has some clues.

Zalanda raised a new question: "The wealth of those immigrants varies. Some are well-fed and some are penniless. How are you going to balance this? If you don't do it right, it will trigger internal conflicts."

"I have already considered this issue." Gavin frowned involuntarily, "I have a preliminary idea, which is to purchase all the food in the hands of citizens according to market prices, and conduct unified management and distribution. Centuries serve as units, which will save a lot of time.

Those bulky items that citizens need to carry will be registered and handed over to me to transport them to the manor through the shadow plane. When the time comes, only the people will be on the road, which will be much lighter. "

This is a typical military management model.

At that time, they will not be leading a group of immigrants, but an army.

"If you agree with me, I will personally come forward to help advance this matter." Zalanda took the initiative.

"This matter belongs to none other than the Lord of the City. Others do not have such a high influence. After all, this is a major matter related to their life and death. It is likely to give rise to resistance." Gavin couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, The best solution to this matter is not to pay cash on the spot, but to wait until they arrive in the valley and then pay them, or use food as cash. However, this matter requires a very high degree of trust. I am afraid that the city lord will No."

"Winning the trust of the people is a long and arduous task. As long as you can successfully bring them back to the valley, you will initially achieve this." Zalanda also knows the difficulty of this matter, "Even I can't do it. To convince them 100%, so we are making two-way preparations for this matter. Those who are willing to sell food to us will be responsible for the entire food supply. Those who are not willing to sell to us will let them solve it on their own until they Until the grain is sold to us, I estimate that a large part of the grain transaction will be completed on the road, so you have to be mentally prepared.”

"This is indeed an effective compromise." Gavin agreed. "The migration process will also be a process for us to get along with each other and gain trust. Just follow what the Lord of the City said."

What Gavin and Zalanda said has a major premise, that is, if the food provided on the road is sufficient and the distribution is fair and reasonable, the citizens will sell the food to them one after another and distribute and manage it uniformly. Otherwise, It will only have the opposite effect.

In this regard, not only Gavin, but also Zalanda is very confident, because she believes that Gavin is not the kind of short-sighted person who will not do stupid things for petty gains.

With the introduction of a series of policies, it indeed caused an uproar throughout Dalauma.

"What do you think about selling grain to Lord Gavin and having them distribute it uniformly under military control?"

“There are pros and cons.”

"Let's hear the details."

"The advantage is that when we sell the food to Lord Gavin, he will bear the cost of migration food for free, which will reduce our burden along the way. We only need to carry the simplest luggage on the road. He is already at the recruitment point and has shown a lot of food. It’s real money and can’t be faked. I heard that some people have already entered military control and the food provided is very good.”

"What about the cons?"

"The disadvantage is that without food in hand, we are completely tied to Lord Gavin and can only follow him all the way to the dark side. Once there is a shortage of food, it will be a collective nature. At that time, everything can only be pinned on Gavin. The Lord’s way of doing things.”

"I don't think the disadvantages you mentioned exist. Since we have chosen to travel thousands of miles on the road of migration, we have chosen to believe in the Lord of Zalanda, believe in Lord Gavin's character, and believe that we can seek better results in the valley. A good life?

If you can't give him this trust, you might as well stay in Darauma honestly, at least you don't need to take any risks.

As for being completely tied up, when you get to the wilderness, even if you are given enough food, do you dare to leave the group and walk into the wilderness alone?

Once on the road, we must follow the large group to the dark, and we must trust Lord Gavin.

When the time comes, they choose to compulsorily collect grain and unify military control. How are you going to respond?

Therefore, it is the most correct choice to obey the big policy, sell all the food and materials to Lord Gavin, and go on the road with gold coins.

If the lord wants to gain our allegiance, he must treat us well. Even if we are slaves, those slave owners will not let them starve to death on the road, otherwise they will lose their value. "

"Sir's words are truly wise words. He analyzes the whole matter extremely thoroughly. Anyway, I can't reach the valley with the food in my own hands. I might as well leave it to Guy from the beginning." Lord Wen is in charge.

By then, even this food will be saved. I heard that the valley is a famous granary, and we can buy more food with the gold coins in our hands. "

"Yes, even if we prepare enough food for the journey, what will we do when we get to the valley? In the end, we have to rely on Lord Gavin? This decision is nothing more than whether to make it sooner or later."

"Even if you are selling, don't be so sincere. Prepare some easy-to-carry food in advance, so you can have emergency supplies in critical moments."

"Ha, even a fool can have this little thought."

"If you tell me that, I'm worse than an idiot."

"You won't leave any of it and sell it all, right?"

"Yes, anyway, I am alone. I have enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. Don't forget my old profession. I am a hunter. As long as I have a bow in my hand and walk in the wilderness, do I have to worry about not having enough to eat?"

"That's right. I heard that we are recruiting hunters like you to prepare a hunting team. I guess it is for hunting supplies along the way."

"I just came back from there. They gave me a small badge and told me to report to the military camp. I don't know what job I will be assigned to."

"No matter what job it is, it's a good thing. I heard that no matter what job it is, there will be corresponding subsidies, and it will be settled in the valley."

"Is there such a good thing? I wonder if there is a job suitable for me?"

"You can go and ask. At the very least, you can be a collector."

"Let's go and take a look together."
