In two months, Dane's southern territory has recovered a lot of vitality.
Especially Shawan Harbor.
The main reason for this is that even though Shawan Port was once completely occupied by the army led by Kang Li, the buildings in the city were also damaged to a relatively high degree. After all, we can't expect how good the place where the demons have been stationed will be. But at least, in terms of population, Shawan Port suffered the least disaster.
This is thanks to Verina.
At that time, she almost launched all the ships moored in Shawan Port, used to load and transport civilians before the arrival of Conley's army, and transported most of the population, as well as some important materials that could be taken away, to maritime. After the war ended, these refugees returned to Shawan Port. Although they saw devastated ruins, there were still people and a large amount of supplies, so all the reconstruction work was not so difficult.
After the war ended, Verina was again sent by Dane to Shawan Port. On the one hand, she was leading a part of the garrison army to station here, and on the other hand, she was in charge of the rebuilding of Shawan Port.
Obviously, Velina's work is very efficient and productive.
Thanks to her hard work, the Shawan Harbor Municipal Government quickly regained control over the city, and led the people to start large-scale construction with various materials. And this kind of large-scale construction has also stimulated the prosperity of commerce to a large extent. After all, many building materials needed to be imported, and commercial trade, which was difficult to maintain during the war, was quickly restored after the war.
Now, although this port city is still in the process of major construction, it has already seen signs of recovery in many places. According to the latest report given by Verina, the economic prosperity of the port city has reached 60% of the pre-war level in just two months, and it is expected to Within half a year, it will recover to more than 90% of the pre-war level.
This process still made Dane feel very satisfied. Verina's work was effective, much to Dane's satisfaction. Moreover, it is precisely because of the presence of this female knight that Shawan Harbor is the place where Dane worries the least.
And the place where he worries the most is in White Wolf Fort.
It is very difficult for him to use other people's hands to do the reconstruction work of White Wolf Fort.
The original buildings in the White Wolf Fort, such as the city walls and residential buildings, are quite easy to say. After all, they are all buildings that originally existed in the city. Chapple, who has been in the White Wolf Fort for so many years, If the old rivers and lakes come to organize manpower and rebuild the city, it will not be a big problem.
What's more, White Wolf Castle itself is not like Shawan Port, which bears very heavy taxation tasks. This was originally a fortress-style city, and its main purpose was military. Economic recovery itself was not the focus.
However, in Dane's hands, White Wolf Castle is not just a simple fortress.
The White Wolf Fort, the base of the human sanctuary, and many system buildings were also damaged during Kangli's invasion. The restoration of these buildings requires Dane to devote some energy and painstaking efforts to deal with it.
Of course, it is said that a lot of energy and painstaking efforts are required, but in fact, what Dane has to do is to further recruit and train human workers recognized by the system, and then these workers will repair the building. He doesn't need to do it himself, and even the coordination on the construction site is also in charge of the corresponding manpower.
But, the key point is, how to get the money in the middle
Dane is a little poor and crazy now.
In the past two months, he spent too much money.
Whether it's the reconstruction of Shawan Harbor or the reconstruction of White Wolf Fort, which one doesn't need to spend enough resources? Shahaiwan Port is okay, many important things have been transferred, and the manpower has not been lost too much. But the White Wolf Fort was different. The White Wolf Fort was seriously damaged, and the population loss was not small. Moreover, the reconstruction of the system building is also very resource-intensive and manpower-intensive.
The construction of buildings requires resources, the training of workers requires resources, and workers need wages to carry out work...
These are a stroke of investment!
Moreover, don't think that only the reconstruction project requires money investment, and there is also a bottomless pit of funds beside it: military expenses!
This is a pit that can never be filled, and will never stop filling. Especially at a time like this.
In essence, if Dane wants to be king, everything else is false. Raising an army that can overwhelm all Schindler's enemies is a serious matter!
The strength he holds now is actually not bad. You know, when Ou Ze left, he brought the 10,000 troops to help Dane wipe out Kangli's demon army, but they all stayed in White Wolf Fort of.
Dane can still control these ten thousand people. Among them, the main factor lies in Elder's cooperation.
Elder is a knight with thirteen career levels. He is not very old, he is not yet thirty, but he has served as an adjutant to Governor Ozer for five years. He is quite promising and among the legions A young officer with a certain prestige.
At the same time, he is also Ou Ze's confidant.
After Ou Ze gave the order for him to lead the army to obey Dane's command, he carried it out without hesitation.
It was also with his cooperation that Dane was able to bring this 10,000-strong army under his control within two months.
This is a very important thing. These 10,000 people are the essence of the Beast Blood Castle Legion, 3,000 heavy infantry, 1,000 heavy cavalry, 1,000 light cavalry, 2,000 archers, and 3,000 assault infantry.
This army still suffered some losses in the battle to wipe out Kangli, but in the past two months, Dane has replenished this army to full strength.
The reason for this is very simple - even though the Beast Blood Fort army already obeys Dane's orders very much, it can be regarded as a force he can control, but he still hopes to add more water to this army, Add more people of your own. Otherwise, Dane still felt a little uneasy about this army composed of people from the east of Schindler.
There is nothing wrong with mixing in more southerners. To a certain extent, it can still further strengthen Dane's control over the army.
He has even replenished the strength of the Beast Blood Fort Legion, and of course it is impossible to stop the construction of his own main force.
In two months, Dane's main army had basically returned to the pre-war level.
