The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 262: Construction of the village of Aaron

Views:

With the help of the farmers who came earlier, the newly arrived Rhodok refugees began to take off their dirty clothes and began to take a bath in the small river next to them, with separate time periods for men and women.

Not only for the prevention of disease, but also for the ritual of welcoming a new life.

Wash away the dust of the old and usher in a new life!

The Rhodoks, whose customs are derived from the Swadians, also believe this.

And right at the top of the mountain.

New buildings began to appear in the void.

50 traditional Rhodok wooden houses are neatly arranged and built at a very fast speed behind the government hall. The stone foundation, the main body made of high-quality wood, including the thick wood boards and roofs used as walls, are all very well-made, just like Competent architects did the planning, and excellent carpenters and builders worked together to complete it.

Including the thick wooden floor that is less than half a meter from the ground, it is not only moisture-proof but also waterlogging. Even in the event of disasters such as flash floods, it can flow to low-lying places along the floor supported by pillars to avoid disasters.

Basically all buildings are like this.

The same is true for the governing hall, where the role of the steps is.

It is in line with the current mountain environment of the Sanwaya Mountains, and it is very practical.

The following buildings are much more ordinary.

5 wool workshops and 5 tanning workshops are built side by side on the left side. This is the handicraft area planned on the top of the mountain in the future. It is responsible for weaving wool into blankets or woolen cloth, and using rich wild animal resources to tan leather or soft fabrics. fur and became a center of handicraft industry.

On the right is the chicken farm and bee farm. The cooing sand grouse and buzzing bees almost regard this mountainous area as a paradise, and it is true.

Wild animals that can threaten residents and livestock are hunted clean.

The Ravenston ranger doesn't care about killing.

In the icy and snowy land of the Ravenston Kingdom, they depended on the prey in the Misty Mountains for a living. Almost any ranger was a top hunter with abundant hunting experience.

This also caused the carnivorous beasts on the nearby hills to become air-dried meat hanging in the storage room.

Even the number of pheasants and hares is much less.

Burning mountains to make fields is almost the same situation.

On the southernmost side, the originally lush forest had been cut down, black smoke was rising from the kiln, and a large amount of charcoal was fired, which was directly supplied to the "Drehem" castle.

The salt and sugar workshops there are big charcoal consumers.

But not absolutely.

The trees around the village, many of which were well-structured and smooth, were transported to the weapon workshop of "Drehem" Castle. Although there was no iron ore, it was impossible to make too many sophisticated weapons, but the arrow shafts that were usually needed were suitable for hunting. The large amount of feathers obtained can be produced.

In addition to the iron ingots purchased from the merchants, the arrowheads are knocked out in the blacksmith shop, and hundreds of ordinary feather arrows or crossbow arrows can be made every day. Although the quantity is small, it can still maintain the current consumption and save a lot. .

Vikia archers and Ravenston rangers are the main consumers of feather arrows.

Especially in wartime.

It is not uncommon to consume tens of thousands of feather arrows every day.

Just like last time, when "Drehem" was considered a fortress, the expeditionary army of the Greymane Kingdom fought desperately to attack the city. In less than 2 hours, nearly tens of thousands of feather arrows were consumed.

If it weren't for Kant's 3 "ammunition recovery" spells, it is estimated that the city wall defense line would have been breached long ago.

Back then he didn't have as many archers as he does now.

Although the Swadian militia with the largest number has hunting crossbows, it is also extremely powerful.

Even so, the amount of arrows consumed is astonishing. Taking the current 500 archers as an example, it is estimated that the tens of thousands of arrows consumed in the battle at that time could be poured out within ten minutes this time.

This group of archers has been systematically strengthened.

Pulling the strings with the arms tends to strain the muscles severely, but as a system unit, they have plenty of stamina.

Therefore, the density of arrow rain is extremely high, and the frequency is also extremely frequent.

Originally, Kant had considered negotiating with Baron Dylan at the Stone Pass to import some feather arrows and crossbow arrows for storage, but because they were military supplies, they were naturally rejected.

Now that there are villages in the Sanwaya Mountains, the problem of manufacturing feather arrows and crossbow arrows has been solved.

Although not up to the level of cone-headed arrows or steel crossbow bolts.

But usually using feather arrows and crossbow arrows, with the ability of these top archers, is enough to kill any unarmored troops across the field. Even if you encounter top heavy troops, relying on the city wall, they can still pose a threat. After all, condescending shooting, close range Under normal circumstances, the power is enough to injure enemies in heavy armor.

With the planning in Kant's mind, more buildings began to appear, including the craftsmen's guild, which was of the same type as the sentry oasis, but belonged to the castle-level buildings, and now the village has been drawn.

With this building, a large number of civilians can be trained as talents in various industries.

Currently the building also houses a sheep farm.

But Kant did not want to build on top of a mountain.

Compared with chicken farms and bee farms, the area of a single sheep farm itself has reached 50 mu of land.

Kant can currently build 5 sheep farms.

After all, it is a medium-sized livestock that requires a little activity environment.

But it cannot be stocked, because the breeding of sheep is the real captive breeding, similar to the camel farm, but the requirements are even higher. After all, this is a wool-producing breed, and the wool must be shaved every month to obtain wool. In terms of breeding There are also strict norms.

If it is stocked, it is also prone to danger.

After all, sand grouse are free-ranged in the wild, and they will flap their wings in groups and return from cliffs or woods, and they can fly to trees to avoid wild animals.

When these sheep encounter wild animals, they are estimated to be delicious fresh mutton.

"Build in the area near the road at the bottom of the mountain."

Kant had a decision in mind.

With his mind communication system, the whole person re-enters the perspective of God.

The sheep farm was built at the bottom of the mountain, on the left side of the road, although it was also a slope, but with the emergence of system rules, the entire slope suddenly became a little flat area.

Although it is still a slope, at least there is no problem in raising sheep.

The small river originating from the underground river flows on the right side of the road, and it is quite convenient to draw water.

The 500 sheep that come with the sheep farm bleat and appear in the sheepfold, surrounded by half-meter-high wooden fences, which can be regarded as fences, separating the weeds and shrubs on the surrounding slopes.

After hunting, the surrounding wild animals became scarce.

And this small hill next to the hill of the village is also the area that Kant intends to develop.

The slope of this hill is relatively gentle.

The above are lush bushes, but there are fewer trees.

It's a great place to build terraces.

After Kant's observation with God's vision, there is absolutely no problem in reclaiming thousands of acres of terraced fields on this hill, and the road has to be built step by step, and the terraced fields have to be opened up from one hillside to another.

As long as weeds, shrubs, and woods are cleared, terraced fields are basically feasible.

Besides, he still has buildings.

100 mu of wheat terraces, 100 mu of chickpea fields, and 50 mu of scattered foam fields.

(I made a typo earlier, the chickpea field is 100 mu, a 0 is missing, not 10 mu.)

These can all be planted directly.

Following his thoughts, just above the sheep farm, the originally barren land began to change, rows of land began to appear, and finally formed a mu of fertile land, and the land was even quite fertile, which was much more fertile than the original soil on these mountainous lands. It must also be fertile, just like a completely reclaimed plain field, the soil fertility is very high.

250 mu of terraced fields are formed.

Then there is a stone canal built with stones.

It was also the building that Kant obtained during the lottery. The canals were neatly built with stones and could supply all the terraced fields. As for the source of irrigation, he had already considered it.

"spring."

As far as Kant could see, there was a stream of water appearing in a depression on the top of the hill.

The spring is the water source that the system rules directly communicate with the world of water elements. A large amount of fresh water gushes out of the void spring, just gathering at the top of the stone canal.

The fresh water goes directly into the canal, irrigates all the terraces, and ends up in the creek.

But this special package Kant is not the only one.

This is the reason why the two lottery draws are so rich, because Kant’s special gift package also includes four [river], [tributary], [river] and [lake].

And there is also a reward that can be obtained by exploring the depths of the desert, [Spring Eye].

So Kant is not stingy in using it.

My thoughts moved slightly.

The effect of [River Channel] was activated instantly. From the perspective of God, Kant instantly had an alternative river channel construction plan on his retina. He subconsciously spread from the river he selected at the foot of the mountain to Rushan Pass, where there were 5 people. The temporary camp where the desert bandits were stationed happened to be fully covered.

But this river is not a natural depression and underground, which are formed in series with each other, but a real artificial river with a width of 5 meters and a depth of 3 meters!

There is a stone embankment next to it, and there are stone slabs at the bottom of the river to facilitate silting.

The river has been widened.

The paved road and the small river accompany each other, from the foot of the mountain to the Rushan Pass.

The overall look is similar to the pattern of ancient passages.

However, compared to the underground river that is at least four or five meters deep and thirty meters wide, this river is still very small. Even because of the directly widened river, the water level dropped to more than ten centimeters in an instant, and it was like a small stream instead. Flowing inside, at most it can cover a human's calf, and it looks quite pitiful.

But next, Kant's thinking immediately selected [Tributary], which is a special terrain modification.

Tributaries can directly communicate with surrounding water veins.

Let the two sides connect.

Naturally, Kant chose the underground river at the bottom of the mountain. With the emergence of tributaries, the original crack on the wall suddenly expanded into a cave of four or five meters, and large streams of groundwater surged out, directly filling the river. , so that the originally falling water level increased rapidly, until it reached a point slightly lower than the embankment before finally calming down.

The small river trickles, not in a hurry, and the width of 5 meters is enough for sailing. The bulky goods can be directly transported to Rushan Pass by small merchant ships without passing through the stone paved road next to it.

Kant's ambition to use rivers to connect "Aaron" and "Drehem" has never disappeared.
