"Stand upright!"

"You little bunnies. Listen to me, here, you are not peasants, nor are you freemen! You have only one identity, and that is a warrior! The first duty of a warrior is to obey orders. ”

"Yes, sir!"

"One hundred push-ups! ”

In the vast playground by the River Ness, a group of recruits, who are generally in their twenties, are being lectured by Harald. These people are all screened, with simple family backgrounds, and are basically the aborigines of the Blackstone Territory, as well as some of Sir Weimar's young servants and serfs.

The training method adopted is that a veteran trains five recruits, the standards are strict, and those veterans have undergone more terrible training, so after becoming a commander, the training is ruthless.

At the beginning of recruitment, there were a total of 90 people, after half a month of training. Twenty of them were eliminated, and most of them belonged to the type of weak body and weak will.

Of course, just practicing can't make them die. Therefore, after the unification of Qin Song, Liya and Sir Weima, the welfare of the army has been improved like never before.

The most obvious manifestation is the diet, three meals a day, enough toasted fluffy barley bread, and a variety of large pot stews. The only pity is that the blockade of Hurek Forest has led to a shortage of livestock meat, and the meat that can be eaten at present is basically fish caught from the Ness River, including catfish, sea bass, salmon and trout.

Fortunately, the River Ness, which originates from the primeval forest, is rich in fish, and a fishing team of ten people can basically meet the food of the soldiers every day.

This kind of standard food is second only to Qin Song's high-level people in the Black Stone Collar.

There is no way, Qin Song also wants the rest of the people to get an all-round improvement in terms of diet. Thanks to Luna's level increase, the number of Fengmao elves has increased from three to six, and the yield of wheat has gradually stabilized, one Fengmao elf can ripen a small experimental field in three days on average, and can harvest about 300 pounds of wheat, and the six elves can ripen wheat with all their might, with an average daily output of 600 pounds.

Of course, that was when Luna devoted all her energy to wheat production, and in fact, much of her energy was allocated to other kinds of plants, such as corn, grains, vegetables, and so on.

In fact, the yield of wheat is basically stable at about 200 pounds per day. Luna No. 1 wheat has a roughly 70% flour yield, which is about 140 pounds of wheat flour.

Blackstone Collar currently has a population of about 1,000 people, and 140 pounds of flour is just a drop in the bucket. Therefore, the staple food that the people can receive at present mainly depends on the barley harvested in the Black Stone Collar this year, as well as the barley looted from Daotan Town.

According to Leah's overall calculation, it should be able to support until next spring.

When the time comes, Luna's agricultural achievements may be able to shine.

Further away from the boot camp, more than a dozen shooting targets were set up, and Luna's brother Caice, who has now fully mastered the use and shooting process of the Orc Sniper, has a target accuracy of more than 95% in 100 meters, 86% in 200 meters, and 67% in 300 meters, which is basically a qualified shooter.

His excellent understanding allowed Caice to remove the 'apprentice' prefix and become a full-fledged sergeant, and serve as a training officer for the sniper squad, instructing the remaining nine selected members to practice and discuss the use of orc snipers.

Snipers with excellent archery skills are fed with bullets. Copper, an important raw material for the manufacture of bullets, has so far not found a suitable alternative material. Qin Song tried to use black iron to make cartridge shells, but found that its ductility was poor, and after the cartridge shells expanded during shooting, it was easy to jam, which was easy to cause damage to the chamber and bolt.

Copper plating can solve some problems, for example, our Chinese army is basically copper-plated steel bullets. But the copper plating process requires chemical treatment, and even Alice's manipulation of metal can't help.

At present, bullets are mainly recycled and reused. There is a Evil Nest Spider Demon that provides a steady stream of magic cotton wool and burst magic powder, propellant and primer, but there is no need to worry.

Adjacent to the sniper training ground is the army camp, which consists of a neatly organized field of tents. Veterans who have fought against the orcs twice, except for some of them who cooperate with Harald to train recruits, the rest are subject to a commander rotation system, with three sergeant majors, Hun and Glick Monko, taking turns to lead and pull to the front line of the minefield, while training, maintaining vigilance.

"Lord Alice, is this the new orc hunter you developed?"

Today was just in time for Huon and Grek to rest, so they got a new type of orc hunter - a pump-action shotgun.

It has been proven that the Orc Hunter is indeed a weapon against the Orc Infantry. But the disadvantages are obvious, the firing range is short, the reload is too small, and the danger behind close quarters increases dramatically.

In order to improve this day, after the joint discussion of Alice and Qin Song, the new shotgun, the Orc Hunter 2 type, was quickly produced after many rounds of gun testing.

Thankfully, the orcs sent more black iron......

"Single-barreled?" Glick, who had always been relatively silent, held a shotgun in his hand and made an aiming gesture: "Is it because the shooting range has increased?"

"Yes, it's a single tube. But not only the firing range has increased. Alice smiled and pointed to the closed tube under the barrel: "This is designed as a magazine, which can store eight projectiles. Pulling the handguard back, the redesigned, more elaborate bolt will automatically retract and throw the cartridge case, pushing the second projectile into the chamber while the hammer is reset for a second shot. ”

"Mistress Alice, you mean you can fire eight times in a row?" Hunn's eyes lit up, "Quadruple, my God! That's great news." ”

"Trust me, mastering Orc Hunter Type II is not difficult for you veterans. ”

With experience in making orc hunters and orc snipers, Alice has a lot of ideas about the mechanics of firearms. In fact, one of the designs of the Orc Hunter II was her proposal - a pull-up lever shotgun with a magazine in the butt and a capacity of 6 rounds.

Compared with the two, the pump-operated type is more excellent, so the lever type is abandoned.

However, Alice's innovative spirit is definitely worth encouraging. With a wealth of experience and ideas, Qin Song could completely teach her the work of weapon research and development.

"It's indeed a weapon against orc warriors!" Grek stroked the swarthy gun, "My lord, how many of these weapons are there?"

"The orcs have sent enough ingredients. Alice smiled and blinked: "Ten days later, 50 can be delivered." Qin meant that the veterans would be the first to equip them, and as for the Orc Hunter Type I, they would be issued to the recruits. ”

"50 ......"

Even though they weren't very good at arithmetic, they could understand what a 50-way salvo would be a spectacular spectacle.

"Alas......" Huon suddenly sighed, "I understand that the commander has been making all kinds of efforts to defend against the orcs. But, Lord Alice, with all due respect, even this weapon wouldn't be able to kill such a terrifying beast, would it......?

The intimidation of orc warriors is now significantly reduced, but the terrifying sight of the blood dreadbeast still makes these warriors feel uneasy.

"The latest news, the orcs have begun to migrate. But it's not necessarily good news. They will use Daotan Town as a breakthrough point, and it is very likely that they will create more dinosaurs. But—the great wisdom of the gods, trust in your commanders, and even more in yourselves. ”

Then, a mysterious smile escaped from the corner of Alice's mouth: "We are making a sharp weapon to deal with the Blood Dire Beast." ”

"Really?"

"Dude. Glick laughed heartily and patted Hunn on the shoulder, "Do you question the wisdom of the commander-in-chief? ”

"Everyone, hold firm in your faith, and victory belongs to us. ”
