Chapter 451 Sally's Troubles
For Avala, the Bada tribe, this winter has been a mixed bag.
Roddy and the team did not return as planned, which quietly gave birth to a lot of ideas in the puppet chief, but he didn't wait for him to make any moths, and the big voice of Ervin and others made him completely thoughtless. dispel.
The numerous giant armors and weapons carried on the sleigh opened the eyes of the barbarians who were watching, and the hilly Fendi elk even deterred a group of barbarians who thought they could bear it. It reached an unshakable position, but when these guys heard from Wan Er that Wan Xuexie had been killed, the onlookers were completely silent.
"Ten thousand snow monsters are dead? How could it be ..."
The power of magic is incomprehensible to these savages, so no matter how Irvine and the surviving mercenaries describe it, no one else in the tribe believes it is true.
Roddy didn't expect this group of illiterates to understand anything, he just came forward to explain the causes of the dead barbarians, and compensated these barbarians' families for several sets of armor and weapons, and even discussed with Soderol. .
In fact, the barbarians have already looked down on death, because it was normal for a few people to die when they went out for hunting. But now there are "subsidies" for dead people that have never been heard before. Ervin also didn't understand it. He came over and asked for a long time, after learning a "pension", he explained it, which only allowed a group of illiterates to understand. However, the result was that they were more supportive of Roddy, and instead left the former leader, Avala, in the corner.
What the barbarians think is that Roddy doesn't care at all. What he is thinking about now is how to expand the army here.
"Erwin, how many tribal settlements can you find if you head east?"
In the warm room, Rodi, who was on fire, asked the big guy next to him, who was holding a deer leg with a mouthful of oily crickets, heard a word of his mouth, and replied: "Back to the boss, there are no problems with seven or eight. I've walked all those places. It's going to be snowy now, and it will take me a few days. "
After experiencing a copy of Solomon, this shoddy was completely convinced by Roddy, and he closed his mouth and shouted "the leader", and Roddy watched him earnestly and wanted himself, and gave him Sauron's Tomahawk by the way. He followed him as a "close-up guard" and asked him to call himself "Boss", which made Irvine beautiful, and now a mouthful of "Boss" has already been called.
"Are you familiar with those leaders? What is their relationship with the Bata tribe?"
"The leader of Wagroro and I can still talk, and it's okay for Slough to go west ..."
Irwin looked stupid, in fact, his memory and judgment were not bad, and his expression skills were okay, so Roddy quickly learned from his mouth about other clans and made plans in his heart.
The glacial plains in the memory do not have "human residence", because there is really nothing interesting for the barbarians here. The so-called "export mercenaries" are only the cases when barbarians take the initiative to step out of the snow mountain.
But now the threat of Snow Monster is gone, and he has opened up the situation again. What is waiting for Jinshan? The best option is to make this place a "rear base" as soon as possible.
In memory, even when the orc undead ravages the country, no one has ever rushed to the glacial plains to toss, so this kind of territorial resources that are indisputable but full of excellent soldiers is really worthless.
With a decision, everything is left to action. From the next day, Roddy asked the soldiers to start dismantling and refitting those giant armors, and to let the "Train King" pull the equipment of the three big sleds, bring Elvin and others and walk towards the depths of the territory.
At the same time, Soderauer, who was staying in place, began to record and map the nearby terrain, making preliminary preparations for the future construction of the city.
Roddy returned after a full ten days, and when he once again came to the Bata tribe's station, the number of troops behind him was already more than fifty-four barbarian "mermaids".
In fact, the seven tribes visited had a population of more than 2,000 long ago, but this was their first contact with humans outside the glacier. Roddy could rely on items to exchange these barbarians for a three-year employment period, which is already a good thing. The beginning.
Of course, Irving's testimony and Fendi elk's body shape also played a big role.
There are not many fifty-four barbarian soldiers, but this is just the beginning. Roddy believes that when the base here is completed, these excellent soldiers will continuously add to their army sequence.
The low level of barbarian civilization is an indisputable fact. If everyone is full, I'm afraid that Roddy really can't pull so many young and strong guys for the first time. These guys are almost as strong as Irvin. So the main reason for being pushed out by those leaders is that they consume too much food and do n’t have enough hunting skills ... Exchange a group of "rice buckets" for a batch of weapons and equipment. It is estimated that those leaders are a good deal.
The young people sold by the leaders also knew that they were weighing a few pounds and a few pounds, and there was no arrogance at all. Several of them were waiting in a sad mood, but what they didn't expect was that the next day the team returned, it was just right. Catch up with the "New Year's Day" in the traditional sense of the Karen Kingdom.
So Rodi ordered the soldiers to kill the sheep and kill the deer and simmer in the soup, and a full meal made these guys completely at home.
"Well, it's a bunch of great boys."
Soderlor groaned with his chin and admired him, but he was extremely satisfied with these immature guys: the soldiers were trained, and it didn't matter whether they had hunting skills or not, because fighting the enemy is something of another system. The most important thing is that they are good and young, and military instructors like such white paper students.
"It is estimated that it will be able to become talented in a few months. In a few games, I am afraid I can walk sideways in the kingdom."
With an average height of two meters, a powerful body and a "knight" talent, this allows them to even suppress the orcs on the battlefield. When he thinks that he can command such a powerful soldier, Soderall feels he has to wake up with a smile. .
"You take care of these things, but ... I'm afraid we don't have much time left," Roddy patted Sodroll on the shoulder and looked at the endless snow-capped mountains in the south. "When the preparations are done, start to prepare Come back. "
"The last Chinese New Year was on the way to the Sola sentry post, and this year is in a place where this bird does not shit. It is really a life of running around ..."
Roddy looked at the falling snow of the feathers again, and was very emotional.

Elrond 590 years, January 12.
At this time in previous years, Hollier City Federation, the largest city in the northwest of the Karen Kingdom, has held many large-scale celebrations since the beginning of the new year. All kinds of banquets can't be finished like flowing water. The city is often brightly lit, and often lasts until the end of January.
However, this year's Hollier City is silent like a cemetery.
The main road in the urban area is empty, and when you look at it, all the buildings seem to be covered with a thick white cloth. The falling snow makes the snow thicker, and the white smoke rising from the chimney makes everything feel quiet. painting.
Heavy snow has been on and off for two months.
This New Year has been very depressing for the nobles.Because the roads are blocked and the originally operating caravans are basically closed, they can only sit in front of the red fireplace, wrapped in fur blankets all day, and looking at the goose feathers and snow in the window. day.
As the Lord of the City of Hollier, Sally was closing her eyes and praying in the monastery of the "Rose Cross".
Over the past few months, the Duchess has grown a little faint, her eyebrows have become a little more majestic because of her high position, her face has become a lot thinner, and she appears especially among church nuns in a blue and white priestly robe. Dazzling.
Since Roddy's departure, Sally has come to the monastery's deities every day to pray routinely. Even if the weather is getting worse, she has never been exceptional.
After the prayer, Sally politely said goodbye to these fellows in the sect. Although she had a smile on her face, her mood was as gloomy as the weather.
"Miss, this is the letter I just arrived today."
After returning to the mansion, the housekeeper John took a stack of letters of various sizes and began to briefly summarize the information gathered around these days: "The information returned by Parr Leadership said that they had almost cleared the goods, and the income More than planned, but because of a price suppression, there were several attacks by local hooligan bullies, some losses ... "
"The situation in Hollier City is still stable. The grain hoarded in the previous period has stabilized the price. Those nobles who want to take a share are now more restrained ..."
"Restraint? They're called restraint? Huh."
Perhaps for a long time, Sally looked a little annoyed with these pieces of information, and frowned deeply.
Speaking of which, Roddy explained to her everything that might happen this winter long before she left, and Sally also listened to his opinions and began to secretly hoard food and various winter supplies in order to prevent someone when the severe winter came. It was killed because of "food shortage" or "affordable food".
In fact, the aristocracy rarely took the initiative to help the civilians during the natural disaster. Because of the feudal system, the lords wanted to drain all the oil and water on the people. Where can they pay for porridge relief? The act of distributing bread in the slums is also Sally This kind of compassionate nun can do it, and the work of "relieving refugees" is often hosted by the abbey, and has little to do with the aristocracy. They only support the sponsorship when they are in a good mood ~ EbookFREE.me ~ As more and more people realized that when the severe cold became a disaster, the prices of food and firewood began to soar. This was caused by market supply and demand. Sally also had no way to reduce the prices of merchants and nobles through a paper decree. So she chose to squeeze a large amount of inventory directly into the market to stabilize the price, and the successful price pulled down.
To co-operate with her, there is also the "Pall Leading Firm" controlled by Roddy. Because of the "ridiculous" behavior of selling firewood since September, the name of this commercial store spreading inside and outside the territory has long been deeply remembered. When the blizzard continued and the severe cold came, these stores became the exception. The first choice for people to buy materials and squeezed out the share of the original nobles' firms in the market.
As a result, more civilians in the territory can survive this severe winter. At the same time ... the aristocracy in the territory and outside the territory also hated Sally: because they were not able to sell as high as expected and make a profit.
Blocking money is like killing parents. Sally also quickly pays for her behavior: these nobles began to unite and play their plot in all aspects.
[The book changed its name, mainly for better development there.Everyone also knows that the name of `` Arrow King '' is biased towards Xiaobai.The earliest purpose was to attract more young readers in Book City. But after all, the content is not too white, causing the real Xiaobai readers to be very cold-free, and the readers of this book are a few of the older ones. The decision to change names was made, and I hope you understand. 】
