Chapter 684: 673. Requisition order

  Chapter 684 673. Recruitment order

Surdak lives in this house, which is built next to the reservoir. The whole house is very grand, with five master bedrooms, five guest bedrooms, two living rooms, two dining rooms upstairs and downstairs. There is a storage room attached to the kitchen. Since steel bars and volcanic ash cement were used in the construction, the room span is very large, so there is a lot of room for imagination in the layout design.

During the decoration design, some suggestions from Suldak were also fully adopted. The arched dome and the main beam and stone pillars next to the inner corridor all have a little Rococo style. Living in the whole thatched house is as big.

The bathtub made of marble is placed next to the glass window in the room. Although it is a little cold in winter, you can see the snow scene outside and the fifth-level low dam of the reservoir through this glass window. Holding the parchment paper in one hand, Duck carefully read the letter written by Marquis Luther. Maybe it was written by someone else. The handwriting on the letter paper looks very elegant, but it is not Hathaway's handwriting.

  Natasha came in with a large wooden bucket of hot water, reached into the bathtub to test the temperature of the water, and added some hot water to the bathtub. She put on a linen tube skirt that she often wears at home to cover her slightly plump figure. Suldak sat up from the bathtub, leaned his upper body, held Natasha's round and delicate fair face with both hands, and kissed her Soft lips.

Kneeling halfway beside the bathtub, Natasha was kissed by Suldak so that her neck was flushed. Panting, she grabbed Suldak's restless big hand and whispered: "Before the water cools down, I'll wipe my back first..."

   After finishing speaking, he asked Suldak to turn around.

  Suldak was lying on the stone shelf carved out of the bathtub, just enough to expose his back under the water.

Natasha squatted aside and gently wiped Suldak's back with a piece of loofah. Suldak put the parchment letter in his hand aside, and leaned against a piece of oak with his face sideways, and asked Natasha to put a warm With a hot towel spread on his face, he closed his eyes and enjoyed Natasha's delicate massage, but he was thinking about the letter that Marquis Luther had just written in his mind.

  The current situation in Bena Province is still stable.

Among the provinces of the entire Grimm Empire, the security and economic conditions of Bena Province have not declined significantly. Although Duke Newman is currently leading the main force of the Bena Legion to participate in the war on the Warsaw plane, they are reinforcements after all. The battle situation on the plane is not so optimistic, you can withdraw from the plane at any time, but you have to give up all the vested interests on the plane.

But at least the planes controlled by the Duke of Newman and the major lords of Bena Province have not yet broken out in plane wars, and have not found any signs of infiltration from the dark army of the abyssal forces. Only the Maca plane has encountered a large group of **** dogs. But that was only when the devil demon from **** accidentally cast the space channel onto the Maca plane, and the chaos quickly subsided.

On the contrary, the Bena Province itself has not been peaceful all the time. Some time ago, there were bandit groups and other bandits in various places. Some bandit groups who fled from other provinces took advantage of the fact that the main force of the Bena Legion was no longer in the main plane, and arrogantly entered the Bena Province. territory, looting villages and towns, and sometimes even threatening some remote cities.

As a last resort, the guard battalions in each city have expanded their staffing and extended the sentry posts on the outskirts of the city to remote areas. It is for this reason that the senior leaders of the Hailansa Guard Battalion decided to set up the Badlands Security Squadron. Last year, the Hailansa City Guard Battalion wiped out several With a bandit group, the law and order here has improved a lot.

Constantinople was only besieged by bandits in winter, and the firearms workshop outside the city was captured by bandits. According to the statements of captured bandit captives, Lord MacDonnell was related to the bandit siege, which made Bei The situation in the Tarapagan region in northern Namibia suddenly fell into a very delicate state. The lords of Tarapagan are now squeezed in the cracks and have no choice but to suffer.

It's hard to say what Lord MacDonnell wants, but with the current garrison in Bena province, even if a dispute is caused, it may not be able to get any benefits. The Bena army is stationed in the Warsaw plane, and it is difficult to escape in a short time. The current situation in Nassau is very delicate.

  Lord McDonnell did not actually control Tarapagan completely, and his power map only radiated to the south of the tower.

It was also under such circumstances that the House of Representatives of Bena Province passed the decision of Marquis Luther to station in the Bailin plane. Since Lord MacDonnell has already controlled the Ganbu plane, the Bailin plane at this moment is very important to Bena. For the noble lords of the province, it is even more important.

  Marquis Luther's legion stationed in the Bailin plane is also to strengthen the garrison strength of the Bailin plane.

   In the letter, Marquis Luther informed Suldak to lead the cavalry battalion to the city of Bena to gather. Calculating the time, if he wanted to arrive at the city of Bena in mid-March, he would have to lead the team to set off at least in early March.

   There is also a call-up order attached to the envelope. Without such a call-up order, if you want to lead the cavalry battalion to leave the territory at will, you will violate the relevant regulations of the Grimm Empire Lord Law.

  …

  In the early morning, the dazzling sunlight fell on the room.

  Suldak woke up from his sleep and found that the Natasha people around him had disappeared.

Hearing someone talking in the yard, Suldak pushed open the bedroom door and walked onto the terrace. Facing the bright sunshine, he saw Viru standing on the third-level embankment of the reservoir in the distance. into one.

  At this moment, in Suldak's heart, there was a thought in his heart that Viru could shoot through the embankment of this reservoir built with painstaking efforts.

   "Is Duck up?"

  Chairman Brett, Charlie, and Luke walked in from the door, chatting with Rita familiarly.

  Rita was wearing a long burlap skirt and was chopping hay in the yard. When she saw Village Chief Brett walk in, she obediently stood up and called "Uncle Brett".

Suldak, who was shirtless and wearing only a pair of shorts, stood on the terrace without fear of the cold wind outside, leaning on the railing with both hands, and said to the old village chief in the yard, "Uncle Brett, why did you come here so early?" gone?"

"The cavalry stationed in the row house, if they want to live in the row house, they need to renovate the row house today, at least do some cold-proof treatment, and the Chase bunks can be spaced a little bit, so that they can be divided into several places. Out of ten rooms, there is still some wood in the carpenter's workshop. If you think it's okay, I will take care of it. The villagers of the barren land who followed you migrated back, and the female prisoners of war you brought back , where are you going to put them? You can’t live in tents outside the village all the time!” the old village head said straight to the point.

Suldak touched his nose, waved to them, and said, "It's cold outside, let's talk about it when we come in, you haven't had breakfast yet! Rita, please invite Uncle Brett, Charlie and Luke to the living room, Helping Natasha prepare three more breakfasts..."

   As he spoke, Suldak got into the bedroom with his shoulders in his arms, put on the pile of clothes on the bed in twos and twos, and hurried downstairs.

When they came to the dining room, Natasha brought over hot pancakes and a bowl of oatmeal overflowing with milk. Charlie and Luke were not polite, they were eating milk oatmeal, but the old village chief I have something in my heart, I can't eat anything.

  Suldak took a sip of the hot porridge, grabbed a scorched pancake from the plate, stuffed it into his mouth, and then said to the old village chief:

"I have received a call-up order issued by the Chamber of Deputies of the Province of Bena. In just a few days, I will send the cavalry leading the cavalry battalion to the city of Bena to report to the Marquess of Luthor's regiment. This time not only will I take all the cavalry Battalion, we need to recruit some new troops to form a cavalry battalion of 500 men."

  Hearing what Suldak said, Village Chief Bright, Charlie, and Luke all looked at Suldak in astonishment.

  They also heard about this matter from Suldak before, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Suldak tried his best to swallow the food in his mouth, and then said to the three: "Those captured women can be arranged to live in the row houses temporarily. Some of them were originally villagers in the barren land. If you want to go home, tell their family members to come to Wall Village to pick them up. Some of them are family members of Sand Pirates. When I was here, they probably didn’t dare to do anything. Once I lead the cavalry battalion out of Wall Village , Be careful of their retaliatory actions."

  The old village chief Brett couldn't help frowning, lowering his head in thought.

Suldak continued: "There are also some women who were plundered by sand bandits from neighboring provinces. They have mixed identities, and I don't have time to identify them. If anyone wants to write a letter to their family, we will It is necessary to actively cooperate and help them contact their families. As for the remaining homeless returnees, it is estimated that they will be reported to the Hailansa City Hall, and it is estimated that they will be assigned in a short time."

   thought that Suldak was going to treat some prisoners of war as slaves and sell them to the slave market.

   Hearing what he said, I realized that he had no such intention at all.

   This is different from other lords.

Suldak rubbed his forehead, thought for a while, and said, "As for the villagers who have migrated, they need to be resettled properly. If they want to go to other places, at least let them bring enough food. If they want to live temporarily in Wo In Er Village, we are cleaning up some row houses, and those vacant rooms can be used for people.”

  I wanted to integrate these people into Wall Village, but I was also worried that the old households in Wall Village would collectively reject these outsiders, so they could only let them live.

  Whether it is to accept or be accepted, there is always a time to adapt.

Suerdak told the old village head again: "They may not carry much grain, and some people even have nothing at all. The village can send people to Hailansa City to purchase some miscellaneous grains, and provide them with some grains every day." Free multigrain porridge, stewed dried vegetables, etc., in short, they can’t make them hungry, and if the road construction team and construction team in the village hire workers, they can also give priority to these people, at least let them have some means of livelihood.”

  The latter sentence was addressed to Charlie and Luke. The two of them managed the construction team and the road construction team in the village respectively. Since Suldak transferred all the horses to the cavalry battalion, the team was temporarily idle.

Charlie is currently managing the construction team in the village. The bricklayers who built the reservoir in the village have now joined Charlie's construction team. The construction team received the first order last fall and gave it to Carl Casement. The baron built a villa. The main body was made of steel bars and volcanic ash cement. The structure is very strong, but the project is a bit of a tail, and it has been procrastinating and has not been completely completed.

   "Charlie, didn't you go to Karl's manor, why did you come back so soon?" Suldak asked Charlie who had lost a lot of weight.

Only then did Charlie put down the pancake in his hand, raised his head and said with a 'hehe' smile to Suldak, "The construction of Baron Karl Casement's manor has almost come to an end, and I can't help you much with the decoration. , I have been back to Wall Village for almost half a month."

"Some aristocratic lords in the city of Hailansa saw the villa of Lord Baron Karl. It is said that several of them also wanted to use volcanic ash cement to build some houses in the manor. Recently, many people have come to Wall Village. Come here, you have been outside, and we are still waiting for you to come back to make up your mind." Charlie said happily.

"I'll go to Hailansa City in a few days. I'll ask Karl and Bird tax collectors about this matter to see which business can be accepted. Not every noble lord has money, and I don't want to give it to you for free. They build houses," Suldak said to Charlie.

  Charlie clenched his fist, waved it vigorously, and said happily: "I ran over early in the morning, just waiting for your words!"

  Suldak said to Luke again: "I thought you would drag it back until today. Without horses, it must be very hard to bring so much food and grass back with the help of kobold slaves alone!"

  Luke raised his head, his mouth still full of pancakes, and said vaguely: "I didn't work hard, it was the group of kobold slaves who worked hard..."

After taking a sip of water and swallowing the food, Luke said: "The road from Pustule Mountain to Wall Village is very easy, and we set off early, so we arrived outside the village last night. I didn't expect you to bring so many people back. …and horses, camels.”

"Well, in short, this time I went out to gain a lot." Suldak said: "The horses eliminated by the cavalry battalion this time will be handed over to the village. After the team is reorganized, it will be used to transport buildings for the road construction team and the construction team. Materials, before there is no one in charge, Uncle Brett, you will help me manage this team."

   "Dak, you brought almost all the villagers in the northern part of the Badlands back to Wall Village. Is there still a need to build roads in the Badlands?" Luke asked.

"Of course, our goal for the first half of this year is to establish some road networks in the area between Pustule Volcano, Wall Village, and the Great Rift Valley, and to establish some solid outposts at various points. From now on, I will be in charge of the barren land To ensure the security of the land, of course we must establish a garrison army here." Suldak said to Luke. "If I have extra energy, I also want to renovate the mountain road from High Lansa City to Wall Village. Every time I return to Wall Village from High Lansa City, I have to walk a whole distance in Oak Ridge. God, in addition to the long distance, the rugged mountain road will also take a lot of time."

"Besides, you have to take some time to take care of the sulfur mine on the side of Bump Mountain, and the lumberyard at the foot of Pagros Mountain. The future timber will probably be transported back from the lumberyard." Suldak said to Luke again. Said.

   Several people in Suldak were chatting in the dining room, and there was the sound of a door being pushed outside.

   After a while, Andrew and Samira walked into the restaurant.
