Chapter 31: Ice cave city

"Affects Ice Cave City?"
Chapul looked at Dion in amazement, not understanding what Dane meant.
Their territory, from White Wolf Castle to Sandy Bay Port, belongs to the southernmost part of Schindler.
And Ice Cave City, which is almost more than 400 kilometers away, is the second largest city in the north of Hindler. It is named because of the special ice cave environment around the city.
That's not a good place to live, and the environment is harsh. If the barren Hindler is to be selected for the worst soil environment, it is definitely around the ice cave city. On the wasteland, there is still some better land. It can be used to grow food near water sources, but Ice Cave City is not included in this list. There is no farm around the city.
However, it still has a large population and has become the second largest city in the northern region. The main factor is that among the ice cave terrains around Ice Cave City, there are some high hunting value, A monster with the characteristics of the ice element. At the same time, in the ice cave terrain, there are rich mineral resources.
Absenteeism, monster hunters, and mercenaries have become the main group of Ice Cave City, and many of them. At the same time, a large number of industries supporting these hunters, such as hotels, taverns, equipment repair and manufacturing industries, have also developed fairly well. At the same time, as the origin of raw materials, many caravans will visit.
All in all, although the living environment is relatively harsh, it is a lush town with an estimated resident population of 10,000 or 20,000. If you consider a large number of floating population, there will even be 100,000 people in Ice Cave City.
Ice cave city is not the place where a warlord has the final say. There are several warlords of various sizes in and around the ice cave city. The pattern is a bit like the former Shawan port was scrambled by Morno and Malone. Much more confusing. In fact, Ice Cave City has always been the most chaotic place in Schindler, because the benefits are most obvious there. Unlike other big cities, urban development needs to be maintained. In Ice Cave City, as long as you grab the site and send someone to mine, you can dig out money, which is the easiest resource to compete for.
In such a chaotic and distant place, Chapel really couldn't think of any way to exert influence there. He even felt that it was particularly difficult to control when he set the intelligence eyeliner to Ice Cave City before.
But Dane didn't think his thoughts were whimsical. He said, "Chapel, don't limit your eyes only to the fact that we can only use military action to influence the situation in other regions. Now, our control in the south is the strongest. We can also count on the entire Schindler. It ’s a strong party. Sometimes, by expressing our own voice to the outside world, we show that our attitude is a way to exert influence. "
"Also, we now have the lifeblood of Hindler's maritime trade. Although some of the raw materials produced from Ice Cave City will be transported by land, there are also many parts that will be transported to us by sea. Way, transport to other places. So, is there a lot of places we can control? "
"These are all ways to show our influence. Of course, we are unlikely to capture too much benefit from the turmoil in Ice Grotto in such a distant situation, but at least we have capital in the ice The situation in the cave city speaks for itself. "
"Chapel, I hope you can make good use of this. I won't ask too much, after all, geographical distance is indeed an objective difficulty, but at least you need to play a role in cooling the battle in Ice Cave City. .What to do specifically, you can discuss it with Verina, who is sitting in Shawan Port. Anyway, you can try to keep the battle in Ice Cave City as fast as possible. "
After listening to this large paragraph of Dane, Chapel said thoughtfully: "I think I understand what you mean, I will think of a way to do it."
...
The battle in Ice Cave City is undoubtedly a precursor to the war. On the one hand, Dane needs to ask Chapur to do something that can cool down the battle in Ice Cave City. On the other hand, he must also continue to strengthen his armament, which is mentioned on the agenda.
Now, not counting the troops in Comilla, just to say that the line from White Wolf Castle to Shawan Port, the number of troops owned by Dane has reached 7,500 in size.
The first thing to say is the garrison in control of Verina.
Originally, the strength of the garrison army had two 3,000 troops. Now, she has merged the police battalion and the port guard at Shawan Port to form the Shawan Port Wing, and then counts the previous two. The wing, just the strength of the garrison, reached 4,500.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness has also improved.
In the beginning, the garrison army consisted mostly of recruits recruited temporarily, mercenaries recruited, and some second-line security forces in the past. These soldiers, firstly, have relatively poor equipment, and secondly, the quality of the soldiers is also very ordinary. Even after training, individual teams that perform well may reach the level of ordinary regular soldiers, and most of them are worse than the regular army.
But it's different now.
After the battle with Governor Iron's Iron Nail Post Army on the outskirts of Shahai Bay was over, Dane realized that the use of light infantry in his elite army was very poor ~ www .EbookFREE.me ~ And when fighting some critical and difficult battles, the Light Infantry Regiment, which is more likely to collapse morale in bad situations, may also become a pig teammate holding back.
It was because of this idea that Dane simply made a new military reorganization plan. He wanted to replace the light infantry troops in the main army with the real main army.
As for the light infantry regiments that have been replaced, of course, they cannot be wasted. For Dane's main army, they are cumbersome, but for Verina, this is a rare treasure!
In any case, these light infantry regiments are regular troops that have been trained long enough, acquired certain military skills, and have adequate discipline and quality. Even at the bottom of the regular army, it is stronger than those recruits and second-line security teams in Verina's hands.
As a result, after receiving these eliminated light infantry regiments, she broke them up and filled them into her army, and the strength of the entire army was greatly improved.
