Xia Zoe hardly had much effort to incorporate Fort Komoy into his territory.
Among them, the most happy are the civilians and slaves of Fort Komoy. All the manor owners also offered their loyalty and sincerity to Desinia for the first time.
The snow melted gradually and the weather turned slightly warmer.
After Xia Zoe acted as a salted fish in the castle for a few days, she called both Fernandi and Valk over.
He set up a long table in the study.
On either side of the long table sat Judit and Gibran, Fernandi and Valk.
Toby followed Kelly to bring the lemonade, and put the parchment and pen in front of the four before leaving the room.
The two little milk tigers gnawed and rolled around in the soft blanket, their thick little paws slapped each other, oooooooooooo.
Xia Zoe: "Snow balls, briquettes."
"Ow, ooh."
The two chubby little milk tigers immediately raised their ears, let go of their claws, stood up, and ran over in the direction of Xia Zuoyi, groaning and pulling the legs of the chair.
Under Xia Zuoyi's signal, Judit picked up the two little milk tigers, put them in the wide seat next to him, and covered them outside.
The two little milk tigers shook their tails and huddled together in a clever group.
According to 098, the black and blue tiger was born first as the elder brother, and the white tiger as the younger brother.
The planet where the sand sculpture system is located is a bit special.
The lifespan of the two fluffy tigers will be longer than that of ordinary tigers, and they are very human, and their height and size when they grow up are also extraordinary. It is not a problem to kill an adult man with one paw.
[098's gift for the host is absolutely amazing!]
Xia Zuoyi touched the fluffy heads of the two little milk tigers and got a claw hug and kiss.
Valk: "I've never seen a tiger in white and black before, and I didn't expect it to be in Parshan."
Zoe Xia: "It's just a coincidence to discover them."
"But it was because they were found in the cave that I encountered more fortunate things later."
Except for Judit, the others expressed doubts.
Gibran: "Lord Count, what's the matter?"
Xia Zoe: "Judit and I found a vein in the small valley of Mount Parr."
Fernandi and the others looked surprised.
Xia Zuoyi took out a piece of rock asphalt that he took in his pocket that day and put it on the table.
"That's the ore."
Valcke, Fernandi and Gibran approached immediately.
Fernandi was well-informed and recognized the name of the ore: "This is a kind of black ore, which I have seen in the faraway country of Hulcuta."
"The people in Hurghada will mix the ore with straw ash, clay and fine sand, and then apply it to the surface of the container to make it waterproof."
Rock bitumen is known as black ore on the western continent.
Hurghada is a small country adjacent to Gaena, surrounded by the Aybutin River, and most of the means of travel use boats.
The amount of black ore that has been found before is extremely rare.
Gadayat never appeared.
In addition, because the appearance of black ore is very similar to coal, it was thought to be a new type of coal when it was first discovered, but it was only understood after burning it.
So far, black ore has only been used as a waterproof coating on container surfaces or walls.
Gibran looked at Xia Zuoyi: "Lord Count, did you call us here today...?"
Xia Zuoyi: "I'll call you over for a meeting today."
"The theme of the meeting was - 'Wesas and Comoy Fort's comprehensive capital improvement plan for the next five years', and I want to rebuild these two cities."
He uttered surprising words in understatement.
Valk raised his head: "Lord Count, you must know that rebuilding the city will cost a lot of manpower and material resources, especially in terms of money..."
"I understand, so I asked you to come over to discuss and solve the problem together."
Xia Zuoyi nodded at the parchment and pen in front of them, and said, "Remember to write down the key points during the meeting, so that you won't forget them later."
Valk felt a little dumbfounded, touched his nose and nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Count."
Xia Zuoyi cleared his throat: "The first item - the arrangement of the soldier's training camp."
Fernandi and Valk sat up straight.
"In the summer conscription every year, recruits need to stay in the training camp for two years before they can leave. After that, the soldiers must be reassigned and arranged."
"For example, guarding the city gate, patrolling the city in batches and time..."
Having said that, Xia Zoe looked at Fernandi.
He said: "I remember that Mike Andrew of the reserve soldiers found the enemy's ambush in Parshan the most credit. After that, he was rewarded and broke away from the status of a slave. What do you think of his ability?"
Fernandi: "Stable and reliable, independent and strategic."
Xia Zoe nodded and looked at Valk again.
"Do you still want to go back to the royal city?"
"If you want, I can write to the king so that you twelve knights can go back..."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Valk.
"I swear to the God of Creation, Lord Count, I really want to stay by your side. I don't want to go anywhere except where you are, including the royal city."
Valk felt that no one could be more interesting than the little count.
He first came to Visas with an indifferent mentality.
But now he thought, his jealous brother had finally done a great deed.
Xia Zoe: "If this is your sincerity, I want you to be loyal to Desinia forever and not betray."
Valk stood up and left the chair, walked to Xia Zoe and knelt down on one knee, took his hand and said seriously: "God of Creation is above, I will always be loyal to Desinia, even if it is the king's order. Can't get past you."
Xia Zuoyi: "I accept your loyalty."
"Thanks for your trust."
Valk smiled, and dropped a kiss on the back of Xia Zoe's Bai Nen's hand.
"… "
Dear... You don't have to.
After Valk sat down again, he received attention from Judit, Gibran, and Fernandi.
He raised his eyebrows and asked silently: What's the matter
Judit smiled at him.
Valk covered his chest, feeling a little cold.
…
Xia Zoe continued: "I will set up two cavalry teams, led by Fernandi and Valk, one black cavalry and one white cavalry."
"New recruits can be divided into reserve soldiers and ordinary soldiers when they enter the soldier training camp, but when they leave the soldier training camp, they must be dispersed before entering the two cavalry troops."
Otherwise, the identity and camp will be too clear, and there will be conflicts between civilians and slaves, which will be irreconcilable in the long run.
Xia Zoe: "Fernandi is the commander of the black cavalry, Valk is the commander of the white cavalry, and the flag patterns of the two cavalry... just use briquettes and snow balls."
He wants to requisition the head of the tiger.
Xia Zuoyi looked at the two little milk tigers who were licking each other's fur, just black and white.
There is no peace on the Western Continent.
Not to mention disputes between countries, even small lords often have frictions or battles. Having a cavalry army of their own is undoubtedly the greatest safety and security.
Valk smiled and said: "So, the two little guys will exist as the spiritual symbols of the two cavalry armies in the future."
He stretched out his arms and touched the little white tiger's head, and was almost bitten by the little tiger's finger.
"Ow, ooh."
The briquettes screamed along with the snowballs, and clapped their claws at Valk.
"Hey, it's quite fierce." Valk smiled even more happily.
Xia Zuoyi rubbed the soft belly of the little milk tigers and calmed them down, then said, "I need the two of you to choose two lieutenants each. I think you already have suitable candidates in your heart."
Fernandi: "Mike Andrew's performance is the best among the reserve soldiers, as for the other candidate..."
Xia Zuoyi: "You can take Dana into account."
"Soldiers will have a final assessment before they leave the training camp, and then they will be assigned corresponding positions based on their merits and achievements."
"If you want Dana to follow you, he must convince the crowd and achieve enough merit before the final assessment."
"I can trust Dyna's loyalty and hopefully he won't let me down."
Fernandi stood up and put his right fist on his left chest: "I assure you, he will not let you down."
Xia Zoe nodded.
He asked again: "Valke, how about you?"
Walker: "My picks are Tyler Kennedy and Barna Larry."
"Taylor is smart and steady, and Barna's scouting is excellent."
After confirming the candidate for the lieutenant general, they discussed other issues.
Xia Zuoyi picked up the ore on the long table: "About the mining of this ore vein... The manpower needs to be mobilized from the training camp. I hope you can control the news and don't leak it out for the time being."
"You don't need to hide it for too long, just don't make it known to outsiders until enough craftsmen are recruited."
Fernandi and Valk nodded in understanding.
Xia Zuoyi: "I hope the craftsmen can research other uses of black ore, not only as a waterproof coating, but also for road paving or house construction?"
He didn't say anything more until he clicked, letting Valck and others think for themselves, and put the key points on the parchment.
Rebuilding a city is really not an easy task.
It takes a long time, and the consumption of manpower, material resources, funds, etc. is also huge...
But Xia Zuoyi looked at the upper right of the system interface - the plot deviation value only took a short 2% of the process...
He felt that he couldn't be a salted fish if he didn't want to die, and he had to fight for the future!
Xia Zoe exchanged a lot of related books in the library with reputation points again.
Including - "Basic Regulations on Military Management", "Urban Planning and Construction", "Encyclopedia of Asphalt Material Use"... and so on.
He is like a humble lord and social animal.
Xia Zoe suppressed the sigh in his heart: "The urban construction of Weissus and Fort Komoy needs to develop slowly."
"The main thing at the moment is that I'm going to set up a level at the foot of Pal Mountain."
"There is only one road from Weissus to Fort Komoy that is allowed to pass through. Part of the mountain forest on the southeast side is open as a hunting place for nobles or civilians. The rest of the place must be set up with checkpoints, and soldiers will be stationed in turns every day."
Fernandi and others expressed doubts.
Judit: "Lord Count, what do you mean by this...?"
Xia Zuoyi knocked on the table: "I'm moving."
"I want to build a new castle on the shore of Lake Paar, and the castle on the cliff does not need to be demolished for the time being."
It may be used as a base for seaport development in the future.
Judit agreed with Xia Zoe's decision.
Gibran said: "Lord Count, since we want to rebuild Weissus and Fort Komoy, do you want to invite the church and temple?"
On the Western Continent, only the God of Creation is believed.
Each country is proud of the number of churches and shrines stationed in it, but not every city is eligible to have the church and shrine of the creator god.
For example, in Gadayat, only the royal city of Cais and Neramo, the territory of Bath Ridges, have this qualification.
Usually, bishops, clergy or priests only operate in these two cities.
The Sanctuary of the God of Creation was built in the Empire of Saint Air.
Xia Zuoyi thought for a while, and said, "If you don't want to, come in if you want."
It's better not to come in, it's annoying.
The author has something to say:
Pope: Keep smiling.
[I checked the information and found that the use of asphalt can be traced back to the middle and late Paleolithic Age, and it was used for waterproof coatings, not my fault~]
