Fatis came back soon, followed by Su Nuo's team.
Among the 200 farmers, there are 5 wagons full of supplies, and sacks are piled up under the tarpaulin. They are the grains, air-dried meat and sausages they purchased in Su Nuo, all of which are convenient for storage.
When they came to the sentry oasis, they all looked at this small oasis curiously.
However, the accompanying 50 Swadian infantry were much calmer, standing in formation and standing upright.
These are excellent fighters who have seen many battles.
You can tell by looking at the equipment.
Everyone wears infantry chain armor similar to heavy cavalry, and wears a flat top helmet, but they are not equipped with cloaks for professional infantry combat. Instead, they wear a linen robe, and an extra layer of studded leather armor outside the infantry chain armor , used to prevent long-range feathered arrows from piercing the armor, and close-range enemy swords and swords, it is indeed called heavy infantry based on defense alone.
In the combat order of the Swadian troops, their role is to resist the enemy's troops and maintain the stability of the front.
Holding the heavy fan-shaped shield with iron studs on the left arm, and holding the hand and half sword carefully crafted by the blacksmiths, they are a reliable guarantee to firmly hold the line of defense before the overwhelming charge of the heavy cavalry.
Kant looked at these Swadian infantrymen who were still in high spirits after trekking with satisfaction.
"An elite worthy of recognition." Kant nodded secretly.
And with the addition of these 50 Swadian infantry, the troops of the sentry oasis have basically taken shape.
With 50 infantry, an infantry array of 41 light infantry, an archer array of 20 Ravenston rangers, and 46 Swadian heavy cavalry, plus light cavalry such as desert bandits that can be recruited at any time, completely It can be called a standard combat sequence.
Although the current force is still about 200 people.
But the real combat power is more than ten times higher than when Kant fought the world with low-level soldiers!
"Fatis." Kant said.
Fatis, who had regained his fortitude, walked over quickly: "My lord, please order."
Kant smiled, looked at the sadness that disappeared from his face, nodded and said: "Then you will lead the team, familiarize yourself with our current environment, and if you encounter gnolls who are trying to sneak attack, you will be responsible for commanding the battle."
"Understood, Lord Kant."
Fatis nodded and took over the command without the slightest hesitation.
When he received the letter from his father, he seemed to have undergone a complete transformation and successfully transformed into a real noble knight. He has been strictly trained since childhood, and he has been honed hard in the mainland, and he can act as a military commander on his own.
Fatis summoned the troops in the sentry oasis, and at the same time organized the 50 Swadian infantry into sequence and led the team to set off.
It is Kant's trust and affirmation that Fatis can lead the troops.
At the same time, it is also Kant's training and expectation for Fatis. After all, Kant understands that although he can command a small group of troops, as the number of troops increases, professional commanders will be more effective in controlling the troops.
As the pace moves forward, the metal nails collide like crisp wind chimes.
Kant was slightly intoxicated.
This is the whisper of war, a different display of strength.
Opening his eyes, Kant looked at the 200 farmers who were still looking at the place curiously, with a smile on his face: "Okay, my dear citizens, now is the busy time, you will get your own jobs and houses, and you will get your own jobs and houses." It's a good life here."
"Long live, my lord."
These peasants immediately cheered, they gave up Su Nuo and came here, what they wanted was a better future.
Of course, the newcomer's first job is to move all the materials he brought to the storage room.
50 bags of air-dried meat and 50 bags of sausage, this kind of meat that is durable and delicious, and can quickly replenish physical strength is a good thing, especially sausage. Kant, who is used to eating air-dried meat, couldn't help but want to taste this delicious food.
"Move all these 200 sacks of grain to the mill."
Kant directed the farmers to work, pointed to the warehouse in the southeast and said, "There is a grain warehouse there."
"Yes, my lord." The farmers immediately got busy with their duties.
The mill built separately on the sandy ground in the southeast has reached the final stage after the hard work of the workers these days, and the warehouse for storing grain and flour has also been built as an accessory building.
However, the style of the mill is different from the common wind and water mills in the Kingdom of Swadia.
This is a common animal mill in the Sultanate of Sarande.
Although compared to wind mills and water mills, animal mills are less efficient.
However, animal mills are not restricted by terrain, and do not need to be built beside rivers or between windy mountain passes.
In this regard, Kant understood that the system must have taken into account the lack of water and wind in the Nalun Desert, otherwise it would be really embarrassing if those two kinds of mills really appeared.
Sacks of grain were delivered.
The builders also helped, and just now, with the final boards hammered, the mill was complete.
Including the fence.
A half-meter-high stone wall built with brick-sized stones is built around the date palm grove and wheat field.
This is Kant's helpless move.
The meaning of the wall is not great, and the price/performance ratio is considered to be the lowest-level building.
If it wasn't for the upgrade of the entire village, Kant would never have considered building this building, wasting dinars in vain.
Even Kant has decided.
As soon as the village upgrade is completed, these walls will be removed immediately.
There were no wild beasts in the Nalun Desert, and the half-meter-high wall could not stop the jackals who really wanted to turn over. Rather than hindering Kant's troops from resisting the sneak attack of the jackals and hindering the tactical attack, it is better to tear them down completely.
After all, Kant will continue to develop agriculture in the future, and he cannot let the walls bind the land and space.
"grown ups."
After placing the horses and supplies, Manid walked over.
"Yeah." Kant turned his head to look: "What is it?"
"I heard from Fatis before that our salt mine...was occupied by jackals again?"
Manid frowned slightly.
This is related to the development of the salt trade in the future. If the salt cannot be delivered to Jianshi Pass as scheduled, it is estimated that Baron Dylan, who seems to be peaceful but actually has a bad personality, will turn his face again.
"That's right."
Kant nodded without denying it, but frowned slightly and said, "It's not a big problem."
"I think this problem should be resolved quickly." Manid warned: "Although business requires skills, such skills are by no means cunning and coaxing, but honesty."
"I understand this truth."
Kant sighed slightly, turned his head to look at the desert to the north, and frowned even more.
The gnolls who had been defeated and scattered dared to harass him, and even occupied the salt mines and tribal ruins. It really made him feel that these guys had eaten the heart of wolves and leopards, and they were really brave.
"Just clean it up again." Kant snorted coldly, his eyes full of killing intent.
Kant didn't care about those small groups of gnolls at all.
After being completely defeated and even the tribe burned to death, the gnolls in the Nalun Desert could no longer be called opponents.
The sneak attack now is just the last struggle before death.
It doesn't even pose much of a threat.
Since Fatis stayed at the sentry oasis and carefully defended the surrounding sand dunes day and night, he simply slaughtered the defeated Gnolls again, and let these poor people who had lost their tribe scattered in the desert go to the underworld to reunite with their relatives.
Maybe there will be gnolls who will go back and re-form a gathering place at the ruins of the tribe with the fresh water from the well.
But Kant's sweep will start again.
This time, it will not be an adventurous raid led by low-level infantry, which may be in danger of being defeated, but a genuine cavalry charge, completely defeating the Wolf man again.
Kill these lowly uncivilized beast races in the Nalun Desert.
Because Kant has changed his guns, his troops have also been upgraded, and he has the ability to recruit a pure cavalry unit.
"Use a card."
Kant's thoughts moved slightly.
The golden card that was still floating in his mind instantly turned into powder with Kant's thoughts.
This is the reward for completing the temporary quest "Fatis' Letter Home".
[Double recruitment (constant)]
This task reward, in Kant's view, is the reason for quickly recruiting pure cavalry troops. Without one, he can rely on this golden card to complete the construction of cavalry troops in a short time.
[Ding... system prompt]
[Please choose a permanent building: Consul Hall/Desert Bandit Camp]
The system gives a prompt.
Kant didn't hesitate at all, and said in a deep voice: "The desert bandit camp."
[Ding... system prompt]
[Constant success, the building's recruiting effect is doubled.]
[Desert bandit camp, the current number of recruits is 20 desert bandits per week.]
The system dialog pops up and then fades away from the retina.
Kant clenched his fist slightly: "That's it."
Because when he opened the recruitment interface of the desert bandit camp, the interface that used to display "10/10 desert bandits can be recruited" has now been changed to "10/20 desert bandits can be recruited".
"Recruit 10 desert bandits."
Today is the weekend, Kant will not waste these 10 spots.
After paying 300 dinars, 10 desert bandits walked out of the camp leading desert horses. Although their weapons and equipment were seriously outdated, they looked extremely thin and pitiful next to the Swadian heavy cavalry, but as long-standing bandits His temperament is still there, but he still retains it, like a terrifying gangster who can run away at any time.
These desert bandits are originally light cavalry who come and go without a trace, and take advantage of tactical transfer and assault.
But Kant still had to make a few changes.
"Use the military distribution card."
On the retina of the eye, the dialog box popped up again, and Kant selected it.
The data stream began to spread in an instant, and on the waists of these desert robbers, the flanged hammer that was originally a melee weapon disappeared out of thin air at this time, and what reappeared was the scimitar commonly used by the Salanders.
This is a real standard weapon, not a cheap, easy-to-produce flange hammer.
Outside the stone pass, the task reward obtained by annihilating the two waves of enemies with ulterior motives.
Just for the perfect fit.
"It's done." Kant looked at the streamlined scimitar on his waist, with a smile on his lips.
5 Sarande riders lead a team of 20 desert bandits, and use spears and scimitars to sweep the gnolls hidden in the surrounding sand dunes. There is absolutely no problem, even if the number of enemies may be large, use javelins to consume, seduce, and divide the enemies remotely. Then annihilating them is the specialty of these desert races.
This tactic is the Kujit people forte.
But the Salanders from the desert also learned this tactic when they fought against the Kujits on the grasslands.
It's just different.
The Kujit are good at using bows and arrows to harass the enemy, and only concentrate on attacking when the enemy is exhausted. The Salanders, on the other hand, were more keen on the destructive and powerful short javelins, which directly caused the enemy to suffer greatly, brazenly taking advantage of the enemy's timidity to launch a charge, and completely defeated the enemy.
This is the different tactics shown by the different characteristics of the two peoples.
There is no good or bad, only suitable or not.
The Sarandes ride desert horses, with wide hooves, a well-proportioned body, and a relatively strong physique, but poor stamina. They are suitable for direct charge rather than wandering horses. Sarande horses are desert horses that have been carefully bred After the horse.
Therefore, the Salanders threw short javelins, instantly destroying the enemy's front line, and charged with their horses and spears, which produced excellent results.
In the Nalun Desert, Kant of course adopted the tactics of these desert peoples.
This is the experience accumulated by the ancestors.
Just like in future wars, Kant's Swadian troops lined up perfectly, but the desert bandits composed of these Sarandes harassed the enemy's wings and rear like flies. Once the enemy showed its flaws, what greeted them was Complete death, because the flood discharge composed of Swadian heavy cavalry can destroy all troops in front of it.
"The next thing is to wait."
Kant made some calculations in his mind.
All the buildings will be completed today. After reaching the upgrade standard allowed by the system to upgrade the village of "Drehem", Kant will directly choose to upgrade.
That would be a new beginning, not the village it is today.
For example, the fort that Kant intends to upgrade.
When any power goes from weak to strong, it is accompanied by a series of fighting and fighting.
What's more, this is a world where hard fists represent justice.
Only by mastering strong military strength can one ensure one's own security. It is impossible for Kant to devote all resources to economic development in the early stage. The route he determined in advance is to give priority to military development.
Kant's development line can also be called militarism.
That's right, militarism.
In Kant's view, this is not a derogatory term, but the fastest way to increase strength, the best effect, and the shortest effect.
With military strength, it means hard fists.
As long as the fist is hardened and no one dares to infringe easily, then Kant can develop the economy with confidence.
These troops are recruited systematically and are always loyal to Kant. There is no military interest group at all. Opposing Kant's economic development will only support him unconditionally.
Kant turned his head slightly.
The sun in the sky has come to the top of the head, exuding unparalleled heat.
It was almost noon.
Taking a deep breath, Kant's face was calm, but there was a bit of complacency in his eyes.
Sweep past the Sentinel Oasis.
"Rising like the sun."
Kant sighed in his heart.
This is the cornerstone of a bright future for his already small village.
... ... ...
The darkness is condensing, as if it is trying its best to contain the light of dawn.
But as the scorching sun finally took shape, the darkness was as unbearable as a broken flag in front of the light. In just a short moment, countless rays of light pierced the darkness, dispelled the night, and brought the dawn that belonged to the day.
Kant opened his eyes, and the sky outside the window was still slightly dark.
Shaking his head, his spirit quickly recovered, he threw off the woolen blanket and put on his clothes, and Kant opened the door and went downstairs.
"Lord Kant."
Now the guards guarding the first floor have been replaced by Swadian infantry who are better at foot combat.
Seeing Kant coming out, they stopped their chests in high spirits to salute and say hello.
"Yeah." Kant nodded in response.
Sitting at the wooden table in the hall, farmers in the kitchen are preparing breakfast.
It is still the food share for all personnel, and it needs to be prepared earlier. Kant is not surprised by this, but he turned his head and asked the Swadian infantry who was acting as the guard: "Did you find any abnormalities last night?"
"Lord Kant, everything is safe."
The Swadian infantry responded decisively.
"Very good." Kant nodded, with a smile on his lips.
After the early hours of this morning, Kant took the lead in recruiting 20 desert bandits for 600 dinars by taking advantage of the refreshment of the desert bandit camp, forming a 40-member light cavalry team.
Kant didn't let them idle, but arranged tasks instead.
Led by 5 Sarande riders, they took advantage of the night to clean the sand dunes around the sentry oasis, and now it seems that the effect is remarkable.
"Did there not be a jackal attack?" Kant still asked.
"No."
The Swadian infantry replied, and added: "It is absolutely safe, and there is no trace of any wolf man around the village."
"Not bad." Kant smiled with satisfaction.
The role of light cavalry is not only to harass the enemy's front and attack the enemy's supply lines.
Tactics such as anti-reconnaissance, anti-sneak attack, and anti-infiltration can also be learned and used flexibly. It is quite convenient, fast and efficient, and sometimes it is much more useful than the heavy cavalry that is simply used to destroy the enemy's array.
But Kant still shook his head regretfully.
Let the desert robbers form a cavalry team to clean up the surrounding sand dunes, and told them that if they can capture the wolf man, then try to capture them as much as possible. After all, these guys can still be sold to the Zhiwadin caravan that is coming this month.
As for the replacement of the flange hammer, Kant did not regret it.
This kind of bludgeoning weapon can indeed forcefully stun the enemy in the game and obtain a large number of prisoners.
But in this real world, the heads hammered by the desert robbers with horse speed are basically like hammered watermelons. The smashed skulls are fractured and dented. Fortunately, most of them are directly brains. Let the whole head be torn apart, let alone stunned, the unlucky look is simply unbearable to look at.
This is why Kant asked them to change to machetes.
They are all killing people, and the sharp machete slashing across is much stronger than the flange hammer with a shorter attack distance.
Kant didn't even care.
If you can capture the jackals, you will be captured, and if you can't, you will kill them all. There is no hard target.
At present, the development of the sentry oasis is still the most important thing. There is no problem in killing all the gnolls.
Sit in the executive hall.
The sun has become intense, the night has completely dissipated, and the time of day has arrived.
And Kant was waiting.
The system is also quite considerate pop-up dialog box.
[Ding... With the rising sun, a new week begins.]
[Income: You collect a tax of 200 dinars in Dherim (village).]
[Expenditure: You pay 4766 dinars to all members of the army]
[Financial overview: The main income is: "Drehem" collects 200 dinar head tax for civilians, no merchants pay taxes, no factories pay taxes, and the means of income are seriously lacking. The main expenditure is military expenses: Swadia light infantry 369 dinars, Swadia infantry 800 dinars, Swadia heavy cavalry 1472 dinars, Sarande cavalry 145 dinars, desert bandits 240 dinars Gnar, Ravenston Ranger 1540 dinars. Fatis 100 dinars, Manid 100 dinars.]
This is the weekly income and expenditure briefing.
Kant's eyes glanced at the financial summary of the retina, which was about the same as he had pre-calculated.
One of the disadvantages of militarism is that military spending consumes most of the savings.
But Kant didn't care.
Now that the current military priority development path has been determined, he will naturally not change it.
In this world, scattered gnolls are everywhere, not to mention the depths of the Nalun Desert, but there are also many gnoll tribes in the Sangwaya Mountains. It is really simple and easy to capture some and exchange them for dinars .
After checking the finances, Kant's eyes flashed brightly.
That's what he had to do next.
But before that, Kant had to make complete preparations.
Slightly pondering, Kant raised his head and ordered to the guard at the door: "Convey the order and ask Fatis to assemble the Swadian troops as soon as possible and deploy the defense in the sentry oasis, with Manid assisting as his deputy."
"Understood, my lord." The guard responded immediately, saluted and left quickly.
not long.
Suddenly there were noisy footsteps outside the governing hall, and at the same time there was the neighing of horses.
Kant's order was conveyed, and all Swadian troops began to assemble and stand by.
This is currently the strongest military power that Kant possesses. This powerful force, even the wolf man tribe back then, probably would have trembled for it, and did not dare to offend it easily.
41 Swadian light infantry, 50 Swadian infantry.
46 Swadian heavy cavalry, 20 Ravenston rangers.
And still wandering in the outer desert, a light cavalry team composed of 5 Sarande riders and 40 desert robbers.
A strong elite composed of 202 people.
Without any moisture, all are high-level soldiers who can be directly put into the battlefield for fighting.
Among them, the lowest-level arms are all Swadian light infantry wearing infantry chain mail, wearing infantry pointed helmets, holding thick fan-shaped shields, heavy spears, and standard soldiers with Germanic short swords on their waists.
Kant thought nothing could go wrong.
Sentry Oasis is now safe.
It's also a good time to upgrade.
And Kant's thinking, also a straightforward communication system, chose the golden card in his mind.
"upgrade."
Kant was sure, and the card with golden light in his mind was instantly shattered.
The mysterious mighty power descends.
The upgrade request that was once rejected has now reappeared on Kant's retina.
In order to see the above dialog box clearly, Kant closed his eyes.
[Ding... system prompt]
[Currently, the village "Drehem" is fully equipped and upgrades are allowed.]
[Yes/No to upgrade.]
The system gave a choice, but how could Kant hesitate at this time.
Taking a deep breath, Kant said affirmatively, "Upgrade."
Words represent affirmation, and Kant's tone is equally affirmative.
The golden light that had been dissipated into fragments instantly turned into a stream of data, which appeared in the outside world following Kant's thoughts.
The entire governing hall is wrapped.
A large number of data links are beginning to wind up, and mysterious and mysterious existences are coming.
As if some kind of crystal wall was broken and the two rules were communicated, Kant, who was in the governing hall, also seemed to be transformed into this mysterious and mysterious force, and began to transform the governing hall.
and inject new rules.
[Ding... system prompt]
[The village has reached the upgrade standard. This upgrade has two modes to choose from.]
[①Fortress (Military)/②Town (Economy)]
[Please make a reasonable choice based on the current situation, and it cannot be changed after confirmation.]
A system dialog box popped up in Kant's eyes.
Kant escaped from that mysterious power.
Swallowing slightly, he made a choice: "Fortress."
[Ding... system prompt]
[The mode is determined to be a fortress, and the village begins to upgrade.]
The flow of data continues to spread.
It seems to last forever, but it is just a few breaths.
The data stream completely enveloping the governing hall was ferocious when it came, and disappeared in an instant.
Kant, who was sitting on the chair, opened his eyes.
"finished."
Slowly exhaling a sullen breath, Kant looked in front of him.
The long table still caught my eye, which seemed to be the same as before, but when Kant looked up at the decorations on both sides, he couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly, the change was really too great.
The neatly cut stones are like blue bricks, laid out to form the neat ground in the governing hall.
And the surrounding walls have disappeared from the previous planks, but are made of stone.
The width is like the stones used to build a city wall, measured by engineers neatly and built layer by layer, making the height of the entire hall reach 4 meters, and for the sake of beauty, there is a lion symbolizing the Kingdom of Swadia hanging on the wall.
This also fits the aesthetics and logo of the Lion Principality.
Looking at it, Kant had the impression of having lived in the Principality of Lions for 16 years, and thought that there was nothing wrong with these flags representing the Principality of Lions.
Although male lions are drawn in different ways, they all represent lions.
Kant turned his head and looked to the sides.
The originally spacious and open windows have disappeared now, and the 4-meter-high stone wall has no concept of windows at all.
resulting in a somewhat dim light.
This made Kant slightly stunned, and subconsciously thought of Stone Pass, the official residence of Baron Dylan.
Really similar.
The rooms on both sides have been blocked by walls, only at the corners of the walls on both sides of where Kant is sitting, there are two passages connected to unknown places, and there are also two Swadian infantrymen waiting for each.
The same as the two infantrymen in front of the gate, they are all on guard.
Standing up, Kant walked towards the passage on the left, thinking in his heart: "Is it leading upstairs?"
According to the experience in previous games, the fortress buildings of the Kingdom of Swadia are usually multi-storey, and seeing that the current administration hall has been entirely made of stone, it is estimated that there are more floors and taller buildings.
"Lord Kant."
The Swadian infantry on guard saluted respectfully.
"Yeah." Kant nodded as a response.
The entrance passage, as Kant expected, is a staircase built with wooden boards in the two-story wall, leading directly to the top, but looking up, it seems that the current governing hall has become three floors.
The space on the second floor is relatively narrow, and the two sides of the corridor are divided into rooms by wooden boards.
The layout is similar to the hotel in the game. It is obviously a room for the guards, and it is also a storage room. Although it looks small, it is roughly estimated that it can accommodate 20 guards to rest.
Kant continued up the stairs to the third floor.
This should belong to the lord's space, and only three rooms are divided by wooden boards, and the interior space is very spacious.
Moreover, there are many ornaments hanging on the walls and carpets on the floor, all in a typical Swadian style, luxurious and domineering, and the aura of the once overlord of the Calradia continent is undoubtedly revealed.
"Not bad." Kant nodded.
He had checked the room, and it was also full of carpets and decorations, and the bed was also covered with soft velvet.
This is a precious cloth in the game.
But Kant looked up and found that the stairs were still leading to a higher place. He walked over curiously, but there was a wooden door at the top. As he pushed it outward, the bright sunlight suddenly shone down, making Kant squint his eyes slightly.
He turned over and walked out.
This is a stone hut, like an elevator room on the top floor.
"Lord Kant."
The respectful salutation came, and it was two Ravenston Rangers saluting.
Kant's eyes adapted to the light, squinting slightly to look around, he could see the vast desert in the distance, the vast sand sea was extremely vast, the desolation and desolation that belonged to the desert made him stunned.
This is the top floor of the executive hall.
The stone roof has become a floor at the bottom of the feet, with a spacious space of about 400 square meters, and a half-meter-high arrow retaining wall is specially built on the edge.
"How high is it here?" Kant swallowed and asked.
Ravenston Ranger replied: "My lord, it is 10 meters high."
Kant came to the side of the arrow blocking wall, leaned on the protrusion and looked down, his condescension made his heart beat a little faster. Although he didn't have acrophobia, his fear of heights still made him palpitate.
The previously familiar street appeared in front of Kant.
The administrative hall has changed from the original 300 square meters to the current 400 square meters, and it is 10 meters high. It is like a stone giant that crushes all the buildings at the bottom.
He also hesitated to upgrade the governing hall, and the streets have also undergone some changes.
But the overall effect is similar to usual.
Fatis was leading the troops to gather on the street and saw Kant looking down, all of them showed fanatic expressions, raising their weapons high as if they were shouting for joy.
"Lord Kant!"
This is their sincere fanatical admiration for Kant, their heartfelt admiration and their soulful loyalty.
At this moment, Kant's heart seemed to be ignited with pride.
Standing on the edge of the arrow blocking wall, he waved to the soldiers below. Although he didn't speak, it was this response that made all the Swadian soldiers below shout and cheer.
"This is my fortress."
Kant narrowed his eyes slightly, with unparalleled confidence in his heart.
After the upgrade, it seems that only the basic administrative hall of the village has been changed to a fortress-level administrative hall.
But that's just one of them.
Kant opened his retina and looked at the current "Drehem" interface, which was completely different.
[Fortress]type buildings have appeared.
This is a new beginning.
Kant left the top floor, and the two Ravenston rangers bid him farewell.
They are the sentinels stationed here, and at the same time, they can rely on the heavy bows in their hands to carry out long-range strikes on any enemy who tries to approach the sentry oasis. The height of 10 meters and the bow skills of Ravenston's ranger can completely cover the entire sentry oasis.
For these rangers honed in Misty Mountain, Kant trusts them quite a lot.
Back in the lobby on the first floor, Kant sat back in his seat.
"Open the data list."
Kant's thinking again communicates the system.
The current data list pops up instantly on the retina.
... ... ...
[Drehem]
[Lord: Kant]

[Comment: The brand new "Drehem" fortress has just been established, and the situation looks a bit bad. The clear spring water flows into the small lake, nourishing the dry and barren land. Hopeful farmers are busy in date palm groves and fields. However, as a fortress, there are fewer buildings, and the living area is quite crowded, without any fortifications. It is worth noting that there are no ladies in the fort.]
[Remarks: Non-system output is not included in statistics]
... ... ...
This is the newly upgraded "Drehem" fortress.
Kant exhaled slightly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The system's evaluation is really ruthless."
As a village, it was a good evaluation, but now it is directly defined as bad.
Looking at the buildable categories on the interface, densely arranged, Kant also reluctantly accepted this evaluation. After all, according to the statistics of the large number of military buildings above, the current fortress is indeed very simple.
To be called a fortress, at least there must be a wall that can protect the territory.
Just like those castles in previous games.
It's just that the current village has been upgraded to a fortress, and the construction time of the building has changed from 7 days to 20 days to 50 days, which has completely doubled.
This made Kant rejoice that it was wise for him not to completely consume his prestige.
"However, the walls can be built."
Kant's eyes flashed brightly, this is the construction gift bag he once drew.
The city wall was not directly built at the beginning because it was afraid of hindering the development and construction of the village. Now that I think about it, it is still wise. If I really chose to build the city wall at that time, then the fortress that appears now will completely disrupt the original plan.
The importance of fortress planning can be reflected in the defensive effect.
If the city walls and defensive buildings are not constructed properly, there will be defensive dead ends and gaps, which will be fatal to the fortress.
After all, this is a military building.
The key to guarding a certain area, if the defense declines due to planning problems, resulting in a gap, and then the enemy discovers and uses this as a breakthrough to launch a fierce attack, then the fall of the fortress is only a matter of time.
This is not the case now.
All fort-level buildings have been listed.
Kant could completely rely on the buildings on the list and reserve space for construction in advance, which meant that there was no problem at all in building stone walls now.
"Build a stone wall."
Kant's thinking goes on to communicate systems.
Now that he has made up his mind, Kant will implement it swiftly and vigorously, procrastination is not his character.
In his mind, the cards of the stone city wall instantly shattered.
Data flow is endowed with new rules by mysterious power.
And Kant's whole body also rose instantly with the divergence of his thinking. When he reacted, he had already appeared at an altitude of 20 meters in the "Drehem" fortress from the perspective of God.
Looking down from the heights, he could clearly see his fortress.
The governing hall, whose whole body is made of stone, should be called a square tower, and its height of 10 meters is like a rock giant.
On the streets at the bottom, Fatis and his troops were still assembled and on standby.
But on the street of the governing hall, it was like a small black spot, which was not directly proportional to this huge rock giant. It seemed extremely small, and it seemed that it could be wiped out with one kick.
Of course this is just speculation.
Kant amused himself at the idea.
Shaking his head slightly.
Kant regained his sanity and scanned the current layout of the sentry oasis. The north side is still dominated by agriculture, and the south side is dominated by residential and handicraft industries. This is the simple plan of the village at the beginning, but it is a good foundation.
Kant, the agricultural region to the north, does not intend to change.
Kant also determined the residential area and handicraft area in the south.
The weapon workshop in the building list is also classified by Kant in the handicraft industry area, and it is also placed on the south side.
On the west side is a small lake and 5 acres of Achnatherum splendens.
Kant plans to develop the west side into a livestock area, where all kinds of livestock will be fed in the future, and the fertilizer produced can just be transferred to the agricultural area, basically killing two birds with one stone.
As for other similar cells, barracks, etc., Kant intends to regulate them all on the east side.
Next to the pre-built training ground, there is also a spacious free sandy area, which can fully distribute these military-use buildings, and can provide timely support if any situation occurs in the future.
No matter how planned the fortress is, it will not be too big.
Closely connected buildings, bounded by city walls, firmly resist the enemy's attack and ensure the ownership of the lord in this area. This is the definition of a fortress or a castle.
In the Lion Principality, castles and villages are the fiefdoms of nobles and knights.
As for towns and cities, they belonged to the exclusive territory of the king, and officials needed to be sent to the city hall to govern.
Of course, Kant only has this fortress at present, so there is no need to worry.
