Chapter 57: The Gnoll Strikes

Allen also has a lot of expectations for the teaching of the agricultural area, after all, food is very important to the territory, and now the main food crop in the territory is wheat, as for other crops, there are some, but none of them can replace the status of wheat.

Alan expects these students to research food crops for their territory in the future, increase food production, and create new high-yielding crops. Just like the hybrid rice in the previous life, after continuous attempts and explorations, the grain yield has been greatly increased.

After all, the war in the Qinghuang Territory is indispensable in the future, the war is about the foundation and strength, and the food is also part of the heritage, and Alan doesn't want to see the future when the soldiers are fighting in the front, but they are hungry because they don't have enough food.

Without disturbing the normal teaching, Alan and Battenbad left the agricultural area with the two of them and went to the nearby artisan area.

Before he could get closer, Alan heard the sound of striking iron, and the piercing sound spread far away, occasionally mixed with scolding and criticism.

Alan came to the blacksmith teaching office in the craftsman's quarter, and several stoves in the room were emitting scorching heat, and Alan could feel the heat rushing in just outside the door.

I saw that in the house, several stoves were surrounded by people, all of them were sweating, and the blacksmith was even bare-chested.

The blacksmith was explaining something to the students, and there were one or two students next to him who were trying their hands and taking an iron block and knocking it there, but after making a few mistakes, they were severely criticized by the blacksmith master. I could only shrink my head and dare not speak, and looked at the blacksmith master timidly!

Alan looked at it, although he was not very familiar with it, but it was not difficult to guess that what was being taught should be the basics of iron strike.

Alan stood outside the door, didn't go in to bother, turned and left with Battenbard.

Over the next period of time, Alan visited the Business District, the Health District, and the Regulatory District, and got a general idea of what the school was teaching.

Except for the teachers who have some discomfort, the others are still within the scope of Allen's acceptance, these students are the hope of the territory, and when some students in the school pass the assessment and graduate in the future, they will directly enter the nine places of the Qinghuang to contribute to the territory. Some will also serve in the school, increasing the number of teachers in the school.

Without waiting for the students to finish school, Alan rode out of school.

......

The Evil Black Sea, the land of human disgust, the place where the Kraken is rampant.

On the sea near the Green Grass Territory, four strange-looking ships were approaching at high speed, and the reason why it was strange was that these ships were very different from ordinary Terran ships.

These ships are the ships of the Gnolls!

"Chief, we're out of the way of the Sirens!" Potter breathed a sigh of relief as he reported to Locke, the leader.

"Okay! Let the warriors hurry ashore and hide the four boats!" Locke also breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

Originally, Locke and his party of gnolls saw the shore this morning, and a group of gnolls shouted excitedly, surprised, and were about to land on the shore, when they heard the screams of the krakens coming from the water in front of them.

On the originally calm sea, the tide began to surge, and one by one the krakens emerged from the sea, their scarlet eyes staring closely at the gnoll ships!

It turned out that there was a tribe of krakens living in this sea area, watching hundreds of krakens begin to approach the ships, there was no way, Locke could only give up the idea of landing, let out an angry howl, and ordered the fleet to flee along the coast to the east, the fleet fled for most of the day, until it fled to the vicinity of the green grass territory, those krakens stopped and stopped pursuing!

As the anchor fell, Locke and five hundred gnoll warriors walked from the shallow sea into the forest not far from the shore.

"Chief, this area has been explored, and no trace of the Terrans has been found!" the Gnoll warrior who had gone to find out the news returned.

Locke had expected this, and the Terrans didn't like to live on the coast at all, just like the Gnolls, and stayed away from the stupid Krakens in the sea!

Probably keep moving forward, and you will find the traces of the Terrans, Locke affirmed in his heart.

However, Locke did not act rashly, although the human race is weak and is only worthy of being a slave of the gnolls, but now he has only led five hundred gnolls warriors this time, which is not much, in case the human race is numerous and outnumbered, his own death is small, and it will be very bad if he cannot complete the task of the king.

So Locke is going to let the warriors camp and rest first, and then act after finding out the news of the Terrans!

............

Late at night, green grass collar.

"Chief, we have been interrogated, we have indeed arrived in the Duchy of Kane, and we are now in a barony called the Grassland! The Terrans we just captured are the villagers of the Grasslands!" Potter said to Locke with a look of surprise.

In order to better understand the local information, Locke arranged for several gnolls to capture a Terran from a nearby village and get the information he wanted from the Terran.

Fortunately, this time he came out and brought a Potter who is proficient in the Terran language, otherwise it would be more difficult to get specific information.

"What about the rest?" Locke asked hurriedly.

"This guy is just a villager, and he has no status in the Terran barony, so he doesn't know much, but I heard that the Green Grass Collar has been occupied by the Terran Fishing Lords next to him, and I heard that the higher-level Terran Viscount is also dead!" Potter tried his best to translate the villagers' original words.

"What!

But thinking about it, Locke couldn't help but be happy, which means that this area is already chaotic and there is no order, and it is their chance!

"Where's the Terran! bring him here!" Since Potter didn't say it in detail, Locke was not at ease, and was ready to re-interrogate himself and let Potter translate on the side!

"Uh...... He... Dead!" Potter said heelly.

"Dead! How!" Locke wondered if Potter had tortured him too much.

"After the interrogation was accepted, he was killed by the soldiers. Potter told the truth

Road.

"What!" Locke was also surprised, a little annoyed at first, but finally endured.

After all, after a long voyage and the tragic death of half of the soldiers, the soldiers have been suppressed for too long!

When Locke came to the place where the human corpse was, there was no corpse on the ground, only some minced meat, of course, this was not eaten by the warriors, but it was just crushed, although the gnolls also ate the terrans, but they were forced to helpless, and they really made this decision when there was no food, and the gnolls usually ate wheat.
