Chapter 274: The third phase of Zhenbei City
There is no temple in Zhenbei City, at least those temples have not noticed it now, there is no temple, and naturally there is no priest, but fortunately, the buildings in Zhenbei City have health attributes, and the humans who live here rarely get sick, even if they are sick, they can carry it by themselves.
It's just that these newly migrated outcast slaves can't, they have experienced orc wars, hiding in the wilderness or being imprisoned in camps to work, and their physical condition is not good, even if they recuperate in the Blackstone Fortress for a few days, but they still can't get them back to health.
Then it was a long journey to Zhenbei City, and many people had various diseases, and Chrissy was also a little caught off guard by this situation, after all, she was a succubus, not a doctor. Fortunately, Hathaway was also here, and as a wizard and alchemist, she knew how to concoct potions, and immediately began to concoct potions when she noticed that the migrated population was sick.
Potions for the treatment of common diseases are not difficult to make, the only problem is that they are in high demand, in order to cure these people as soon as possible, Hathaway recruited a group of pharmacists and asked these pharmacists to make potions according to the steps she taught.
Being selected by Hathaway to become a pharmacist is a great joy for those homeless, in this world, the spread of knowledge is very slow, and ordinary people need to spend a lot of money to learn knowledge, and many times the son inherits the father's business.
So in this world, you can see that a lot of fathers are blacksmiths, sons are blacksmiths, and even grandsons or grandsons are blacksmiths. For this kind of thing, those nobles are also very fond of it, because in this way, there are very few people who can cross classes, and they can always be nobles.
The lucky ones chosen by Hathaway were given a chance to cross classes, so they were hungry for Professor Hathaway's knowledge.
Hathaway only taught some basic formulas, and the treatment was also used for some common diseases, but even if it was this common disease, if the body was not strong enough, there was a high chance that it would slowly become serious and eventually die of complete illness. Hathaway didn't make many medicinal soups, but the effect was very good.
With these pharmacists, and Zhenbeicheng has always paid great attention to personal hygiene and town hygiene, those diseases did not break out at all, but only spread in a small area and were controlled.
Suren has a professional charter for the homeless people, and all the homeless people are first bathed, cleaned up after arriving in Zhenbei City, then distributed clean clothes, and also need to be closed and isolated in a temporary camp for a period of time.
The harsh environmental conditions of this era forced Suren to do so, and when it was determined that there were no problems, these people were assigned to various working groups.
After having a pharmacist, coupled with artificial isolation, the condition of the displaced slaves was quickly controlled, and Zhenbei City did not receive any impact, plus the more than 40,000 people who migrated this time, the current population of Zhenbei City finally exceeded the 100,000 mark.
However, with such a large population, Zhenbei City could not fit here at all, and Chrissy built a dozen temporary gathering places near Zhenbei City, where all the displaced slaves who came here from the Blackstone Fortress were lived.
At the same time, Zhenbei City also began to start the third phase of the construction project, the first to build is housing, Zhenbei City through a large number of infrastructure construction, has trained a group of excellent construction workers, these workers according to the drawings left by Su Lun to start construction. The entire periphery of the northern part of the town has been transformed into a huge construction site.
In addition to seizing the time to build, the farmland in Zhenbei City also began to continue to expand, because there was enough manpower, this time the amount of farmland reclamation started at 100,000 mu, which was directly twice the original amount of farmland. Of the original more than 50,000 acres of farmland, only a part of it was planted with grain, which was enough for the previous Zhenbei City, but with the arrival of a large number of people, if the farmland was not expanded, there would be a shortage of food.
The arrival of the equivalent population has brought a series of problems to Zhenbei City, the most obvious of which is that the number of grassroots officials is once again insufficient. It can be said that the entire town of the north city is in the first place, and it can be said that it is overloaded.
......
While Suren was in full swing of migrating populations, the orc chieftain Rogethus, who was far away in Carthus, also learned of the defeat.
"Bang!"
A loud bang came, and Rogessus slapped the table in front of him to pieces, still puzzled: "The 20,000 orc army was defeated by only about 5,000 humans like this?"
"Yes... I'm sorry, the chieftain, including three thousand wolf knights, were also killed. The herald was sweating profusely and said with a nervous expression.
"An army of 20,000 orcs, even if 20,000 pigs and beasts line up for you to kill, how long will it take? Rogessus roared angrily.
"Chieftain, it's really not that we're incompetent, it's that those humans are too cunning!" said the ragged orc general, kneeling on the ground next to him, hung his head in despair.
"It's not like I didn't give you a chance, and I gave you two chances, but what are you giving me now? 20,000 troops are wiped out?" Rogessus said with a grim expression.
"Come on, drag this coward fool down for me, cut off his head, and use it as a sacrifice for our dead compatriots!"
Rogess's authority was vividly demonstrated at this moment, and after several tall and strong orcs outside the door came in, they walked directly to the general, and then dragged it outside the tent despite the drastic change in the orc general's face.
A scream came to an abrupt end, and soon a bloody orc head came in passively.
"Chop it up and feed it to the dogs!" Rogessus said coldly.
Soon the orc general's head was taken out, and Rogethus looked around the tent before speaking slowly.
"The loss of an army of 20,000 orcs has put our rear camp in jeopardy, and once they break through our camp where we store food, the consequences will be unimaginable, so this human army must be dealt with as soon as possible. ”
"Chieftain, our main force is now fighting in Carthusian City, and the number of remaining troops is limited..."
"10,000 elites from the front line..."
"Chieftain, I don't know if you've noticed the lack of attack characteristics of this human army. The senile high priest next to him said suddenly.
"High Priestess, what are their characteristics?" asked Rogethus questioningly, and the other orc generals looked over as well.
"Ahem... Have you noticed that although this human army is attacking the camp in the rear, the camp they attack and occupy is all the camp we use to hold human slaves? The High Priest said slowly.
"Yes, that's true!" Rogethus reacted after being reminded by the High Priest.
"Why do they only attack camps with humans?" the High Priest continued, not waiting for the other orcs to answer, and continued, "There is only one answer, and that is that this human team is for the human slaves we captured. ”
"Human slave!?" Rogethus looked surprised.
"Yes, human slaves. The high priest affirmed, "You see, there have been a few times when they could have breached the camp where I had stored my grain, but they spared it a few times. There are also those baggage teams that transport supplies, although they have also been plundered, but they rush to leave without stopping at all. ”
"These people are looking for camps where people are being held. ”
"Why did they do that?" Rogethus wondered, was it better to save the population than to cut off the orc army and help humanity achieve victory?
"The problem is that there is only one reason why these humans are doing this, and that is that there is a problem within the human kingdom. The High Priest said wisely, as if I had seen everything through.
"You mean there's a fight within humanity?" Rogers' eyes lit up, if there was a real rift within humanity, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
......
Unbeknownst to Suren, his act of rescuing the outcast slaves had caused the orcs to be on high alert. And these orcs also made up their own brains. He was still recruiting outcasts in the Blackstone Fortress, and in addition to him, there were other nobles who were also recruiting outcasts, and these nobles were completely forced by Suren. Because if they don't recruit the outcasts, all the outcasts will be snatched away by Suren.
At that time, even if the orcs are successfully driven away, but without the displaced people, they will not even be able to restore and rebuild the territory, and although there has been a war in the Northland wilderness, the population casualties are not too serious.
In addition to the original cities, the Northland provinces also have many villages scattered around the cities, which are not protected by tall walls, and are easily attacked by orcs, and then raided, and a large number of humans fled into the wilderness.
In order to recruit more outcasts, Suren took out the two recruitment orders he had obtained in the last battle.
I played around with the recruitment order for a while, and then chose to use it.
"The host uses a Recruitment Order, and the Recruitment Order effect is activated, and Suren is greatly attracted to the outcasts in the surrounding wilderness. ”
After using the recruitment order, Suren was not idle, and began to prepare the soldiers before. The effect of the recruitment order was very good, and only half an hour later, Su Lun was reported by the guards.
"My lord has become a large number of displaced people, and they have asked to join us in the north of the town. One of the guards said hurriedly excitedly.
"How many are there?" asked Suren.
"I'm sorry, I didn't count, but there are at least a thousand people. ”
"Thousands of people, the recruitment effect this time is so good?" Su Lun was also a little surprised, the effect of using the recruitment order in the past was not so good.
