After returning to the scout camp, Lin Yuan informed the four people of Takakura about it.

"! Boss, what kind of mission have you taken on! Takakura complained ruthlessly, and suddenly felt a little regretful for following Lin Yuan.

On the contrary, it was Wang Shen, Yang Qin, and Zhou Kang, who were eager to try one by one.

Lin Yuan understood the performance of these three people very well.

The NPCs in the world of Wushuang have a greater love for this land and a higher degree of recognition for the Southern Song Dynasty.

After taking care of his bags and saying goodbye to Sun Chuanlin, Lin Yuan led the military supplies and marched towards Malan Village.

Fortunately, Niu Gao sent 100 cavalry escorts, otherwise, Lin Yuan would probably not be able to return to Malan Mountain, and he would be robbed by the bandits on the road halfway.

The journey was safe and sound, and in the evening, we finally arrived at Malan Village.

"This is Malan Village? Boss your village? "Takakura was out of town for the first time, and I felt that everything was new along the way.

Outside Malan Village, Yuwen Chengdu and Cao Ru had already led people to wait at the entrance of the village.

"The last general, Yuwen Chengdu, meet the lord."

"Cao Ru, I've seen the lord."

Where has Takakura seen this kind of posture, especially the appearance of Yuwen Chengdu, which directly scared him stupid.

"Two of you, please." Lin Yuan helped the two of them up, and then his eyes looked at the villagers behind him, in only five days, the number of villagers had actually doubled?

Cao Ru saw Lin Yuan's doubts, and explained with a smile: "After the lord left, General Yuwen single-handedly picked a small Zhongxiang uprising camp and captured 800 people. ”

"General Yuwen is really a tiger general!"

After Lin Yuan heard it, he couldn't help but praise.

The four people behind him, Gao Cang, Wang Shen, Yang Qin, and Zhou Kang, were completely shocked.

"Let's go, everyone will follow me into the village."

The group entered the village.

Today's village is much more prosperous than it was five days ago, but it seems a little chaotic in the midst of prosperity.

Lin Yuan put his hand on the core stone tablet in the center of the village and read the information of the village.

[Territory]: Malan (Level 2 Village)

[Lord]: Lin Yuan

[Affiliation]: Xiangyang Mansion, Jinghu Road, Southern Song Dynasty

[Specialty]: None

[Population]: 1386/1000

[People's Heart]: 60

[Public security]: 54

[Prosperity]: 186/150

[Administrative efficiency]: 15/100

[Economic efficiency]: 40/100

[Agricultural Efficiency]: 0/100

[Cultural efficiency]: 20/100

[Military Rating]: 540 (40 militia)

[Village Warehouse]: 1032 units of grain, 3832 units of timber, 1671 units of ore......

[City Fortifications]: Level 2 Horse Rejection, Level 2 City Wall, Level 2 Pit, Wooden Fence (Simple City Defense, Soldier Defense +6)

[Existing buildings]: thatched huts, wooden houses, second-class blacksmith shops, second-class grocery stores, second-level lumber quarries, second-level mining farms, second-level militia battalions, second-level medical halls, second-level carpenter shops, second-level smelters, mountain temples......

[Constructible Buildings]: None

The village suddenly increased by 800 prisoners, which caused a certain decline in public morale and law and order.

When the population grows, so do the mouths for eating.

Lin Yuan remembered that before he left, there were still 1,300 units of grain, but now he actually consumed 1,000 units at once, and he couldn't even last a month.

There was less food, but there was more timber and ore.

After Lin Yuan inquired, he learned that Yuwen Chengdu had captured 800 prisoners, escorted all of them to the back mountain, and opened up the mountain road to the main road of Jiangling Mansion, so it is no wonder that the village's [economic efficiency] and [prosperity] have doubled.

Cao Ru's work is also very good, and all the buildings in the village have been upgraded to the second level, and even the smelting house and the mountain temple have been built.

[Secondary Smelter]: Smelt iron ore into refined iron, with a production efficiency of 40% (100 units of iron ore smelt 40 parts of refined iron).

[Mountain Temple]: The god of Malan Mountain, sheltering the Malan Mountains, +15% production of hunting and mountain fruits, +10% production of wood and ore, +2 increase of popular morale, and 50% reduction of robbers and rogues.

"Yes, the village can now be upgraded to three levels."

Lin Yuan checked the conditions for upgrading a second-level village to a third-level village.

First, the population of the village reached 1,000 people

Second, the prosperity of the village reaches 150

The two conditions have been met in Malan Village, and Lin Yuan decisively chose to upgrade.

"Ding!"

A burst of golden light fell, Malan Village was promoted to a third-level village, and the area of the village expanded a lot, in addition, some architectural plans were expanded, making the whole village look a lot more orderly.

Lin Yuan simply checked again, the conditions for the promotion of a third-level village to a first-level town.

First, the population of the village reached 1382/2000

Second, the village is 186/500 prosperous

Thirdly, the lord's reputation reaches 300/100

Because of killing several silver-level bosses before and after, Lin Yuan's reputation value was able to reach 300, surpassing most lords.

……

Early the next morning, Lin Yuan summoned Cao Ru and Yuwen Chengdu and began to discuss the extermination of Zhong Xiang's rebel army.

After Yuwen Chengdu heard it, he was obviously a little excited.

In particular, Lin Yuan brought back a large amount of military supplies, which allowed Malan Village to organize a regular army in a short period of time, and its combat power increased greatly, which made him not happy.

Lin Yuan still arranged Cao Ru's work first.

"Cao Ru, your current priority is to grasp the problems of the wood quarry, the mining field, and the grain storage, and strive to upgrade all the buildings in the village to the third level in the shortest possible time, and the smelter and blacksmith shop in the village will also start operating, starting with the creation of arrows, we need our own weapons."

"In addition, I am going to take 500 people from the young and strong men to form an army, so there are not many people left for you, but I believe you will be able to find a way to solve it."

"Also, now that the north and south mountain roads are opened, how to attract the caravan to pass through Malan Mountain, this is the top priority, how to rest and resupply the caravan through Malan Village, these must be considered, and the other is the issue of tariffs, how much is the appropriate proportion, you first draw up a preliminary plan, wait for me to see."

"Yes." Cao Ru obviously felt that his head was big, but he could only take the task hard.

"General Yuwen, the matter of selecting 500 strong men from the villagers to fill the army will be handed over to you."

"The last general will not fail in his mission!"

In the next time, Lin Yuan took the heavy cavalry transfer certificate and the second-order soldier promotion token, and came to the second-level militia battalion, and he wanted to transfer all the existing 40 militiamen to second-order heavy cavalry.

A morning passed, and all the militias were successfully transferred.

【Heavy Cavalry of Malan Village】(2nd Order)

Level: 10 (up to 20 levels)

[Base Attack]: 19 [Base Defense]: 15 [Base Speed]: 20

[Equipment]: Gold Lacquer Iron Armor (Silver Level), Great Song Ring First Knife (Silver Level), Great Song Ring Gun (Silver Level), Great Song Cloud Head Boots (Silver Level), and High-quality War Horse

A silver level, so that the combat power of the heavy cavalry reaches 19.

What determines the combat effectiveness of a soldier is not only the level of the soldier, but also the level of equipment.

The better the equipment, the more effective the soldier will be.

The equipment on the body of the average second-order soldier is only bronze, and the maximum combat power is only 15.

Now Lin Yuan's heavy cavalry is dressed in silver, and his combat power has reached a terrifying 19.

Not only that, Lin Yuan also transferred Yang Qin to a heavy cavalry.

Yang Qin has [Intermediate Charge A] and [Blood Battle A], which is very suitable for heavy cavalry.

Appointed Yang Qin as the leader of the heavy cavalry squad, and let him lead 40 heavy cavalry to the surrounding mountains and forests to farm monsters and improve the level.

After a morning, Yuwen Chengdu also screened 500 villagers.

These 500 villagers, after passing through the militia battalion, were all transformed into militia, and then Lin Yuan directly used the certificate of transfer of heavy infantry, the certificate of transfer of heavy armor archers, and the certificate of full-time crossbowmen.

Obtain 10 Divine Arm Crossbowmen, 100 Heavy Armoured Archers, and 390 Heavy Infantry.

【Divine Arm Crossbowman】(1st Order)

[Level]: Level 1

[Base Attack]: 5 [Base Defense]: 4 [Base Speed]: 3

[Equipment]: Infantry Armor (Silver Level), Great Song Bronze Helmet (Silver Level), Divine Arm Bow (Silver Level), Point ** Arrow (Silver Level), Cloud Head Boots (Silver Level), Great Song Ring Head Knife (Silver Level), Great Song Lion Face Shield (Silver Level)

The Divine Arm Crossbowman is a powerful class of troops in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the power of the Divine Arm Bow is huge, and it can easily shoot heavy armored cavalry, but the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the mobility is poor, and the loading time of the Divine Arm Bow is too long.

As a result, these classes are usually equipped to defend the city, or to fight in conjunction with other hoplites.

【Heavy Armor Archer】(1st Order)

[Level]: Level 1

[Base Attack]: 4 [Base Defense]: 4 [Base Speed]: 4

[Equipment]: Infantry Armor (Silver Level), White Birch Bow (Silver Level), 20 Cone Head Arrows, Great Song Bronze Helmet (Silver Level), Great Song Ring Head Knife (Silver Level), Cloud Head Boots (Silver Level), Great Song Lion Shield (Silver Level)

Compared to the Divine Arm Crossbowman, the advantage of a Heavy Archer is that it has a fast rate of fire, and the disadvantage is that it is less powerful.

One thing both have in common is that they can be used as infantry once they run out of arrows.

Heavy Infantry (1st Tier)

[Level]: Level 1

[Base Attack]: 4 [Base Defense]: 8 [Base Speed]: 3

[Equipment]: Infantry Armor (Silver Level), Great Song Bronze Helmet (Silver Level), Cloud Head Boots (Silver Level), Great Song Ring Head Knife (Silver Level), Great Song Long Shield (Silver Level)

After everyone has been transferred, the next step is to level them up, and strive to reach level 10 as soon as possible and be promoted to the second-order class.

The matter of upgrading will be handed over to Yuwen Chengdu.

Lin Yuan is in charge of the village and is responsible for all aspects of coordination.

In a flash, five days passed.

In the past five days, the villagers in the village have been very busy in order to upgrade the third-level buildings.

In accordance with Lin Yuan's instructions, Cao Ru proposed a plan for business travel, planning to build inns and restaurants in the village, and at the same time set up checkpoints on the north-south mountain road, responsible for tax collection, and the tax rate was set at 1% (that is, 1% of the total value of the caravan goods was taken as tax. ）

This tax rate is already very low.

The caravan transported the goods from Jiangling Mansion to Xiangyang Mansion, and the net profit was as much as 30%, and Lin Yuan only needed 1%, so that the caravan could save three or four hundred miles of unjust roads, and it was not too much to avoid the harassment of the rogues.

In the past five days, a total of 3 caravans from Gangneung Province have come to the village.

These 3 caravans all chose this road with a tentative mentality, and Lin Yuan believed that after they tasted the sweetness of this time, they would not hesitate to choose Malan Mountain Road for the second time.

3 caravans, collecting a total of 3 taels of gold.

Sure enough, commerce is the fastest way to get money.

Commerce and trade can not only collect taxes, but also allow goods from outside the village to flow in, and goods from the village to flow out, accelerating the development of the village.

Only by letting money flow can wealth snowball.

In these five days, Yuwen Chengdu and Yang Qin led the recruits to sweep the mountains and forests within a radius of 20 miles, sweeping away the beasts in the mountains and forests.

The average level of the 50 heavy cavalry reached level 15, and all 500 infantry were promoted to level 10, and Lin Yuan promoted all of them to the second order.

In these five days, the scouts Wang Shen, Zhou Kang, and Gao Cang sent out by Lin Yuan also completed the task perfectly.
