Chapter 20: The Third-Class Village and Preparing for War

Boom, the territory of Xia Village expanded outward, rising from a second-level village to a third-level village, and a layer of earthen walls about 1.5 meters high appeared on the outskirts of the village. There is also a wooden fence outside the earthen wall.

Xia Village officially became a large village from a small and medium-sized village.

……

After the summer village was upgraded to a third-level village, several lacking buildings were added, and it began to develop in the direction of the town, along with earthen walls as fortifications. The earthen wall was also the prototype of the later city wall.

The lord's mansion where Chu Tian lived has finally changed greatly, the lord's mansion has been rebuilt from a wooden house to a stone house, and there are green tiles, which finally looks a little magnificent.

He now manages a population of 800 people. Most of the lords are still tossing around in the second-level villages, and some lords may not even be able to upgrade the first-level villages to the second-level villages, so the villages are destroyed because of the rogues and beasts.

The lord's house is divided into a front yard, a stone monument, and a back yard. The front yard is naturally a place to work and deal with village affairs, and the stele is the core of Xia Village, and if the stele is destroyed, the entire territory will be deserted. The backyard is where Chu Tian lives.

"Build two wooden arrow towers at the entrance of the village, and one wooden arrow tower in each of the other three directions except the entrance of the village to serve as a guard tower."

Chutian arranged for laborers to build a wooden arrow tower, which required a large amount of wood.

Yixia Village's timber reserves were completely insufficient, but Chu Tian had already entrusted the trading houses of Xiaozhu Village to collect timber from nearby villages.

A team of commercial horses arrived from Xiaozhu Village, bringing in a steady stream of timber, and with Xia Village's massive labor extraction, the timber was barely enough.

Carpenters and laborers were busy building wooden arrow towers. Carpenters are also special talents. In ancient times, the slaughter of cities did not kill craftsmen, because the uses of craftsmen were very broad.

The hunters of Xia Village can set hunting traps around the village, and if the Yellow Turban soldiers step on the trap, they may be injured or killed.

Zhao Qi reported the progress to Chutian: "Except for the fact that no traps have been set at the entrance of the village because of the need to ensure the entry and exit of people and goods, 253 traps have been set outside the earthen wall. ”

"Make a note of the location of these hunting traps, and for the last month or two all villagers have been forbidden to approach the earthen wall, and can only enter and exit through the village entrance. Wait until the Yellow Turban is dealt with before cleaning up these hunting traps. You lead people to set more traps, and the more the merrier. ”

"Yes."

Zhao Qi took Orion to lay a trap near the earthen wall.

The advantage of hunting traps is that you don't need to pay resources, you just need to invest labor, but the disadvantage is that you can't always have traps at the entrance of the village...... And as long as the Yellow Turban Army concentrates on attacking a certain place, it can use crowd tactics to destroy the traps there.

Mulan trains the elite infantry of Summer Village in the second-level school field. A group of infantry used spears, broadswords, or iron swords as weapons. A small number of infantry had changed into scarce leather armor, but most of them were still clothed.

For the recruited soldiers, long-term training and conquest can improve their level, and gradually become a division of a hundred battles.

Because Mulan killed a lot of Yellow Turban soldiers and rebel marquis, her level has been upgraded from level 30 to level 32, and the current commander is 72 and the force is 82, which can bring higher bonuses.

"There is no uniformity in weapons, and there is not enough armor."

Hua Mulan mentioned the current situation of the first guard in Xia Village, and there was a little worry in her eyebrows.

"I've asked the blacksmith and the woodsmith to make a spear and a wooden shield for each infantryman, and a pair of leather armor for the armor shop. As for the unified saber and bow, consider it later. ”

Chu Tian is actively preparing for the war. The material of leather armor is wild boar skin that can be obtained through hunting, and as for the weapons of the infantry, Chu Tian prefers spears. A group of soldiers armed with spears formed a phalanx, and it had the effect of a spear array.

Hua Mulan trained the Xia Village infantry, and Chu Tian sent two light cavalry to reconnoiter outside the village.

"The village chief."

Chu Tian was walking on the dirt road in the village and saw a group of villagers driving their pigs to the pig farm.

Summer Village has been planned for zoning.

Xia Village is divided into seven districts, residential area, city square area, barracks area, administrative area, workshop area, resource area, and reserved land.

The buildings in the residential area are private houses, and the private houses are mainly wooden houses, and the number of thatched houses has begun to decrease, and a small number of stone houses have begun to appear. The villagers' houses don't need Chu Tian's concern, and the villagers will naturally find ways to rebuild their houses when they have money, so they can't let the lord worry about what house each villager lives in......

There are taverns, agricultural markets, medical halls, private schools, land temples, and tailor shops in Shifang District.

The administrative district has a lord's house, a granary, and an arsenal.

The barracks area has a first-class cavalry battalion and a second-class infantry battalion.

In the workshop area, there are blacksmith shops, armor shops, woodworking rooms, flour mills, and celadon factories.

The resource area includes farmland, mines, logging farms, orchards, fish ponds, pig farms, and chicken farms.

The reserved land is set aside for the construction of new buildings and for future land sales for money. As long as Xia Village develops into a town, then the land price will rise.

With the gradual increase in the population and architecture of Xia Village, the development of Xia Village is gradually on the right track.

Now a thatched cottage has been built in Xia Village, which can enroll 50 children and improve the cultural efficiency of the territory. Chu Tian selected a teacher from among the homeless people and asked him to be the teacher of the grass hall. Moreover, the grass hall also has a hidden effect, and when these children become adults, their four-dimensional attributes are higher than those of ordinary villagers.

The smell of rice wine comes from the tavern, and the backyard of the tavern is a place where sake is made, and the rice wine produced can also be sold to other villages.

"Drive!"

Light cavalry from a summer village galloped on a dirt road in the countryside, kicking up mud and dust.

The cavalry broke into the entrance of the village, and the villagers who came in and out looked at the cavalry of this summer village in amazement.

The cavalry turned over and dismounted, and found Chu Tian with a nervous expression: "Village chief, a large force of the Yellow Turban Army has appeared outside the village, and there are already villages that have been ransacked!" ”

"Drive all the livestock back to the village, and all the villagers gather and prepare to fight to the death against the Yellow Turban Army attacking the village!"

Chu Tian is like a great enemy, and the Yellow Turban Army this time is no better than the sixty Yellow Turban soldiers last time, and the level is higher.

If you can kill the Yellow Turbans and climb the leaderboard, you may be able to get a great reward.
