In the early morning just after dawn, the whole earth began to slowly wake up, and the smoke that had just been extinguished on the houses was scattered, announcing the beginning of the day's life, and the villages began to slowly make noise, and the children began to walk in groups towards the castle, where they could receive some simple literacy education, and the slightly wet gravel paths were extremely smooth and smooth by people and cars, and in the houses on both sides, the women who had just sent off the men began another day's labor, feeding chickens, rabbits and pigs, cleaning up the vegetables and fruits in the courtyard, washing clothes, and starting a busy day。

The men walked in groups of three or five, they would first assemble at the assembly outside the wooden fort, and then go to their respective work stations in groups, or make or gather, and on the road you could see the troops who had completed their evening patrols walking towards the castle, and in Lelouch's territory, security was never a problem.

The chirping of unknown birds, mixed with the breeze of the early morning wet mist, the rustling of the leaves and the sea, the busy world, but also with a different kind of tranquility.

"One, two, three, push!"

Wow~boom~

"Okay, okay, two groups to clean up the branches and leaves, and three groups are ready to carry them. ”

With the collapse of another towering tree, a team of lumberjacks began to skillfully carry out the follow-up operation, in front of them, is the boundless dense forest, and behind them, is the endless plain, this is not a naturally formed plain, but by the wooden castle industry swallowed by the former forest area, unconsciously, the wooden fort that was originally next to the forest, at this time has formed a large plain around him, the original trees on it, at this time have already become the raw materials for industrial development.

The first group, which had just finished felling, sat in twos and threes on the nearby ground, taking out the leather kettles that had been uniformly distributed and drinking water.

"I said, the current life is really comfortable, although I am a little busy, but I can make a lot of money every day, and the family can also see meat at once, my kid, and I am fortunate to follow Lord Lelouch to learn to read, this life is really unthinkable!"

"Haha, you know now? Who cried and didn't leave that broken house?"

One person's ridicule caused the laughter of the crowd around him, and the person who was ridiculed blushed and hurriedly said:

"Isn't that a ghost in my mind? Besides, who would have thought that we would have such good luck to meet a lord as merciful as Lord Lelouch?"

After saying this, the crowd will smile, and many people's faces show a look of gratitude, indeed, compared to forgetting, the current life is really a good day that I can't think of.

"Eh, I heard that your big baby was sent to the factory to learn the craft?"

"Hey, I dragged on a little bit of a relationship, and I barely found a master, no, I went to work in the factory every day. ”

"I don't know how your kid is so lucky, the eldest son entered the factory, the younger son went to the castle, your old boy can have a good life in the future!"

"Yes, yes, the best days are yet to come. ”

After the man said this, he rubbed his hands vigorously, and his wrinkled smile was full of beautiful hopes for his future life.

"Yes, as long as we follow Lord Lu Luxiu, our days will get better and better!Okay, we have enough rest, the second group is almost finished, go to the next tree, the demand for the factory has been getting bigger and bigger recently, and today's task has risen by two more, if you don't hurry up, you have to work overtime today!"

After the captain of the team gave an order, the resting group quickly got up, ready to follow the captain to find the next tree, but the captain stood up and walked only two steps, then stopped and looked ahead.

Everyone looked curiously into the depths with the captain's gaze, but saw nothing, just as everyone looked at the captain suspiciously, from the depths of the forest, suddenly rushed out a team of people wearing animal skins, holding spears, carrying bows and arrows, these logging teams are not strangers, because these people are sent out by Limburg, responsible for exploring the depths of the dense forest, they are responsible for lifting the logging road, ensuring that the dangerous creatures in front are driven away, or killed, in order to ensure the safety of the logging team.

Although they were familiar with them before, at this time, everyone was stunned, because this group of people was covered with blood, and several people were carried, and they had two well-made arrow feathers stuck in their bodies.

"Elves, elves, we've met elves!"

...

Boom!

"What did you say? Elf?"

Lelouch looked at Libert in surprise.

"Yes, this is information from an exploration party this morning, who was on the edge near the center of the jungle and received an elven attack, along with this letter. ”

As a result, the letter handed over by Libert could be seen to be the letterhead used by the elves, because the exquisite patterns and delicate touch were not made by "immovable and elegant" humans.

The content of the letter is very simple, and there is only one core idea, that is, the elves who were originally hidden in the depths of the dense forest are not allowed to further log operations, and if they see Lelouch logging again, the elves will not hesitate to attack Lelouch directly.

To be honest, although Lelouch had always suspected that there were elves in the depths of the North Wind Forest, when the elves really appeared in front of Leluxiu, it still made Lelouch a little unacceptable.

"Stop logging?"

Lelouch looked at the letter in his hand, frowned slightly, to be honest, for Limburg, it seems that there are some difficulties in stopping the logging, although Lelouch also sent people to find other fuels that can replace charcoal, but the situation is indeed a little not optimistic, not that he did not find it, but the coal resources found are too far away from Limburg, unless it is to re-establish an industrial zone nearby, or build a fast track, otherwise the difficulty of mining and application is quite large, and the gains outweigh the losses, so Lelouch has not found alternative energy.

If the felling is stopped now according to the elves' demands, then it means that the entire industrial production of Limburg will come to a halt, which is completely unacceptable to Lelouch.

"What should we do, my lord?"

Libert looked at Lelouch who was deep in thought and asked.

Lelouch shook his head:

"First of all, the production in the industrial zone must not be stopped, but we can't refuse it outright, because I don't know how powerful these elves are.

Lelouch made up his mind:

"Let's go and gather our standing troops first, the number of people is not too many, two thousand people are enough for all the knights to gather, remember, knights don't need to ride horses, and riding horses in the forest area doesn't have much effect, let's go and meet these elves, if we can fight, talk about it, if we can't beat it, just retreat, and then call some people to fight!"

Liebert: ...

Not to mention how shameless Lelouch's remarks were, the appearance of the elves in the North Wind Dense Forest, who originally thought that they had disappeared, quickly spread throughout Limburg, to be honest, although humans and elves also had a lot of communication, but among the people at the bottom, thanks to the habits of the elves themselves, the crowd's feelings about the elves were still relatively mysterious, so Limburg's attention was quickly attracted to the past.

However, this attention did not linger on the elves for long, and then changed places, because Lord Lelouch sent troops.

This is the first time that Limburg has gathered 2,600 people on a large scale after the goblin has been beaten in a neat formation, followed by Leluxiu, and rushed towards the wooden fort, to be honest, the dress of the Limburg troops, don't be too handsome!

The fully armed heroics, coupled with the handsome armor, the whole image does not know how many boys and girls will be charmed, girls want to marry, boys want to be soldiers, no matter what species, whether they are civilized or not, they always have a heart that yearns for beauty, the only difference may be only the difference in aesthetics.

With a shield in one hand, a war spear in the other, and a war sword on his waist, if it weren't for the fact that the cloak affected the battle too much, Lelouch would really be like putting on the cloak, but even so, the weapons and equipment of this unit were already very good.

In addition to bringing 600 knights this time, Lelouch also has a team of 300 archers in the team of 2,000 people, although the archers of the Terran cannot be compared with the elven pigs, but the Terrans benefit from the huge population base, the skills of the archers are much more than the elves, if they can be used, with the cooperation of other troops and the help of weapons and equipment, the Terran archers are not completely without the ability to fight with the elven archers.

Well, indeed, the prerequisites are a little more.

However, Lelouch doesn't think so, in addition to the strength of the human race in addition to economy and comprehensiveness, his multi-unit cooperation is also a considerable strength, after all, no matter which human civilization, it will not simply divide the troops into several categories, the history of human military development in addition to the improvement of science and technology, is a history of the development of multi-arms cooperation, from the very beginning of one person and one stick side by side, to the current five categories (sea, land and air, strategic missiles, Aerospace Forces), the military capability of mankind is actually stronger in his cooperation.

Because the physical quality of the earth human race is higher in the middle of the way, the training of archers is also much more convenient than that of modern humans, these three hundred young people from hunters have amazing bow and arrow skills, and with well-made bows and arrows, their actual combat power is better than that of elves, compared with other races, it is much more powerful, but the quality is not as good as that of elves, but it can be made up by quantity.

The equipment and armor of the archers are almost the same, but the war spear and shield have been changed to a hard bow and quiver, and there is also a long sword, which is good for the developed industry, and the steel sword can be used by everyone.

The team of 2,600 people quickly followed the road to the periphery of the northwind forest, looking at a large area of bare land, Lelouch could be regarded as his own appreciation of the power of industry, this forest may take hundreds of years to grow, but it only takes a year or two to destroy them.

"No wonder you have forced out all the elves that have been hidden for so many years, this cutting speed is indeed a little faster!"
