Lord Highlander

Eight hundred cavalry, two hundred archers, five hundred heavy armored infantry, and three hundred city guards are the total strength of Suldak's current troops.

It is completely possible to form a corps with a complete range of arms.

Swordsman Chester only now wants to understand why Mrs. Marianne was there as a companion when Marquis Luther hosted a banquet alone before coming to the Bailin plane, and her smile was still so kind.

The things in front of me... are probably completely within Marquis Luther's plan.

As long as Suldak can prepare a cavalry battalion, and then use this garrison mission to send him to the border town of Bailin, and then draw elite soldiers from other troops of the legion and inject them into Suldak's command. Form a warband.

Even if Suldak is not capable of building this cavalry battalion, it is estimated that Marquis Luther will help him build this cavalry battalion in private.

In this way, even if everyone knew that Marquis Luther wanted to train Suldak, there was nothing wrong with it.

After all, the Bailin plane is about to usher in a once-in-a-ten-year beast tide, and it is only natural to send more troops to border towns. Suldak is the military and political officer here, and the Luthor Legion is the private army of the Marquis Luther. Army, how to dispatch is not up to him!

The Great Swordsman Chester also wanted to help Suldak smooth out the relationship between the various war regiments. He stayed in Dodan for three days and found that Suldak had firmly controlled the regiment. A complete set of management system, daily meals, training, and field training are all arranged uniformly.

Even if he managed it again, he might not be able to do better than Suldak.

The dormitory in the garrison camp was set up in just three days.

The town of Dodan is located at the southern entrance of the Dodan Canyon in the middle of the Thorn Mountain Range. At the foot of the Thorn Mountain Range, there is a large area of ​​broad-leaved forest land, and there is no shortage of wood here.

There is a lumber mill outside the town, and Suerdak asked someone to buy 1,800 red pine logs with a diameter of one foot from the lumber yard, and cut semicircular grooves at both ends of these logs Come.

It took only one day to build the main frame of the general dormitory, followed by the main beams and tripods of the roof, and finally, the thick wooden rafters were densely arranged on the tripods of the roof. The twenty wooden houses were quickly built in almost three days.

In particular, the wooden house is covered with a flat pine floor, and the wooden beds inside are all single beds with bunk beds, neatly arranged in rows in the wooden house.

If the great swordsman Chester hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that these wooden houses were all built by the cavalry of the cavalry battalion under Suldak.

Teams of soldiers walked into the wooden houses exuding the scent of pine wood, and they all looked at the exquisite wooden houses with novelty.

Suldak explained to Chester Great Swordsman: "The land in our area is barren. In autumn and winter, many people will go to the local logging farm to work and subsidize their families. They are very familiar with logging."

Seeing that a thousand reinforcements were settled by Suldak so quickly, Great Swordsman Chester decided to go to other border towns to see the situation in those towns.

He also recommended two excellent squadron leaders, Adams and Gallatin, to Suldak.

These two knights were also called by Chester Great Swordsman himself, mainly because he was worried that Suldak had no experience in managing the army, and he had urgent matters to deal with, so there must be trustworthy and capable people around him to organize the situation. Both squadron leaders were young officers with outstanding performance.

Before leaving, Chester Great Swordsman of course introduced the two to Suldak.

...

Before leaving, Great Swordsman Chester and Suldak drank in the tavern in Dodan Town and chatted casually.

The taverns in Dodan only have ale brewed by the tavern owner. Due to the rough filtering process, there are even some residues in the ale, but the ale tastes very mellow.

When Suerdak drinks, he is used to eating some dried fruit, fried fish and other food.

There are always some hazel trees in the forest at the foot of the Thorny Mountains, and there are only hazelnuts in the tavern. Suldak ordered a small plate, and sat in front of the bar, smashed open one by one with a dagger, and picked the nuts inside to eat.

Holding the wine glass in one hand, Chester Great Swordsman said to Suldak:

"In Duodan Town, you can ignore everything else, but the defense here is above everything else. Anyone who dares to obstruct the local defense can be dealt with first. Regardless of the civilians, the nobles need to write an explanation of the situation and submit it to Wilkes City Military Department, just let us prepare in advance."

"I came here this time to see if the town can still operate normally. If possible, I won't send the mayor for the time being, lest I have to run in with you."

"This beast tide is not a small challenge for you, but also a rare opportunity."

"To be honest, no matter which plane you conquer, you will encounter difficulties of one kind or another. The beast tide is definitely not the scariest thing. I hope you can gain something here."

"Let me see what the Marquis Luther's favorite candidate is capable of."

Chester Great Swordsman raised the beer glass in his hand and touched Suldak.

Then Chester Great Swordsman said:

"Your place should be the best among the five passes."

"But after all, it is a border town and it is located in a remote place. It is also the favorite place for some wanted criminals and exiles to gather. You must pay attention to safety here. If something out of your control happens, you will immediately withdraw to Will. Come here, I'll help you deal with it later."

Suldak nodded and agreed: "Yeah!"

Then he said: "I will complete the garrison mission."

...

The great swordsman Chester came to the town hall, and accompanied by Mrs. Luna, the group walked around the town of Dodan again.

Chester Great Swordsman found Dodan Town and made full preparations for this beast horde.

The large-scale hunting operation launched on the eve of the beast tide allowed the town to have enough meat reserves, and the furs of rex rabbits and guinea pigs were all hung out to dry in the streets.

There are still some dried snow chickens and grouse hanging in the attic of some residents' homes.

Not only that, according to Mrs. Luna, the town also took out one-fifth of the tax revenue to subsidize the town's per capita rations.

That is to say, the wheat flour is uniformly purchased by the town of Duodan, and then handed over to the bakery in the town to bake wheat cakes and whole wheat bread of uniform size.

There are strict requirements on the material, diameter and thickness of this standard bread. Basically, a white bread needs about a pound of wheat flour, and a whole wheat bread is enough for an adult to eat for a whole day, and such a bread has only a little salt. The price of whole wheat bread in Dodan Town bakery is only two copper coins.

As long as the residents of the small town have 60 copper coins, they can have enough food within a month.

Even those aborigines living at the bottom of society will not starve to death because of lack of food in the most difficult period.

When this measure was first introduced, there was a long queue at the door of the bakery every day, and the bakery owner had to limit the supply according to the number of people.

In the next week, when everyone found that the price of baked wheat cakes had been maintained at such a low price, they stopped looting.

It is that almost everyone in the small town has to go to the bakery to buy toasted wheat cakes and whole wheat bread.

This had to force the bakery to build five large ovens one after another and employ twenty bakers to satisfy the bread supply of the whole town.

Of course, this kind of welfare is only for the existing residents of Dodan Town. Those outsiders can enjoy this cheap scones and whole wheat bread only if they get the tax payment certificate stamped by the tax officer of Dodan Town.

Although the nobles in the town were dissatisfied with this matter, the taxes in the town would not fall into their pockets, so they did not speak out against it.

Chester Great Swordsman only stayed in Dodan Town for four nights, and then left Dodan Town on horseback with four entourages.

The carriages brought by Chester Great Swordsman accepted the employment of some local nobles, carrying the property they had accumulated over the years, and took the opportunity to leave Dodan Town and rush to Wilkes City.
