Chapter 117: The Plan of the City of Angels
Rubbing his swollen head, Xiao Yi got up from the bed, poured himself a glass of water, and poured it all down, and the cheers outside the window came in through the wooden boards and thick curtains. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Xiao Yi didn't call the waiter to serve him, nor did he change his clothes, he opened the curtains and pushed the window open, and after lying on the window and taking a deep breath of hot air, he looked at the city full of fluttering colorful flags and noisy residents who were still wandering the streets.
Yesterday morning, a griffon knight brought the news of the capture of Stormwind, which made Auston Steward, who was still preparing for the victory banquet in the Battle of Shining Gold, decisively upgrade the banquet to a city-wide celebration, and asked Xiao Yi to issue a decree to allow the entire Western Wilderness to celebrate this great victory!
This was a request that could not be refused, and after Xiao Yi agreed, Steward Auston opened the warehouse of the City of Angels and asked the soldiers to tell everyone in the City of Angels the good news.
People are going crazy! Crazy in surprise, maybe this war is not over, but as the former capital of Stormwind, its significance is undoubtedly irreplaceable, in the eyes of people, this is a symbol of victory in the war!
Abundant and varied food was pushed into the streets by the soldiers, like goods, on roadside tables. A wide variety of drinks are served in large barrels, and there are countless fine drinks on every street.
From this moment on, the whole city ceased to be free from any commercial activity, and even the goblins, who were destined for money, had to close their shops and join in the revelry.
The banquet started yesterday afternoon and lasted all night! Xiao Yi, who originally intended to have fun with the people, only appeared on the street for only an hour, and then was carried back by the guards, and the excited residents drunk him.
In the face of the residents mixed with excitement, admiration, worship and other emotions, Xiao Yi couldn't refuse, he could only drink the wine handed by the people one after another, according to the estimation of the personal guards, if someone has bad intentions at this time, hand the lord a glass of venom, the lord may be able to drink it without frowning.
Looking at the residents who were already drunk but still refused to go home, Xiao Yi was a little helpless, but in the face of such a celebration, he couldn't force the residents who fell into the carnival. Fortunately, the soldiers were still restrained, and the defense of the City of Angels was still running in an orderly manner.
"Tuk Tuk-" There was a soft knock on the door.
"Come in!" Xiao Yi didn't look back, he knew that this was a maid.
Xiao Yi, who was already used to it, took the towel wrung out by the maid and wiped his face, then stretched out his hand and waited for the maid to change his clothes, and at the same time asked the maid chief who supervised the work of the maids:
"Is there anything today?"
Due to Barrett's departure, Auston's housekeeper was even busier, so Xiao Yi's schedule was handed over to Xiao Yi's head maid.
The chief maid is a young girl from a merchant family, she always has a straight face, even when facing Xiao Yi, she is meticulous, which makes Xiao Yi feel that this woman seems to be a facial paralysis.
However, for affairs, this serious woman can complete it very well, and when she heard Xiao Yi's inquiry, she opened the notebook she carried with her, and then said slowly, speaking clearly:
"A lot of your administrative staff aren't working because of the celebration, so I don't have a lot of business here, do you need to know more about it?"
"Yes." Xiao Yi supported the clothes on his shoulders, his muscles had further developed recently, and the training outfit he had made before was a little tight, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
The chief maid recorded it in her notebook before continuing:
"Yesterday morning, the Legion Commander, who was in charge of training recruits, reported that the Legion Acropolis had begun to be put into use, and that a thousand Legion Guards and a thousand Marksmen had begun training, and it was expected that they would complete their training and reorganization in a month."
"A letter from Ms. Isabel yesterday morning, the letter said that she needed to increase her strength, at least 20,000 men in four legions, and that she needed a batch of ballistas and cannons from the goblins to defend the harbor of Stormwind."
"Master Van Rikv of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons submitted a document yesterday noon stating that he had completed the expansion of the Legion's Acropolis - the Infantry Training Camp was completed, and you could at any time throw in a thousand infantry who had undergone initial training and train them to become champion swordsmen with swords and shields."
"Your guard officer instructor reported yesterday afternoon that the guard officer recruits have been recruited, because there are not enough nobles in your sphere of influence, and this group of three hundred guard officers are all selected from the families of soldiers and merchants, so their training time will be extended by one month and fifteen days, as their ceremonial training, they will be your first batch of low-ranking nobles in the future."
"The dwarven master reported yesterday that he has successfully recruited several of his kind, and has made a major breakthrough in rune research, and is conducting large-scale research on assembly, and I believe that there will be results soon, and at the same time, he said that his spirits have been exhausted and needs to be replenished."
"According to the report of the recruit officer, the Tenth Army Corps has been reorganized, and except for a small amount of equipment that is not in place, the Tenth Army Corps is ready for battle."
"The tax count has been completed, the first grain has been harvested, and it is all in the granary, which, according to the statistician's estimates, will be enough for the entire Wild West until January of next year. The Grand Governor of Edie said that the gold tax had shrunk severely, and that there was no other income except for the seven hundred gold coins produced by the residents and merchants of the City of Angels last month. ”
"The Ministry of Agriculture reported that the rainy season in the western wilderness is expected to enter in a week's time, and requested the allocation of seeds and farm tools, and the mobilization of all residents to sow new farmland, leaving agriculture severely understaffed by the large number of soldiers."
……
The head maid reported meticulously, her voice without a trace of fluctuation, like a robot.
In the voice of her words, Xiao Yi had already finished changing clothes, he pondered for a moment and said: "Send the Fourth to Ninth Legions to Elwyn Forest, order the Eighth Legion to guard the Westspring Fortress, order the Ninth Legion to guard the Shining Gold Town, order Lady Isabel to return to the City of Angels, and I will give her another task, order General Edric to defend Stormwind City." ”
Xiao Yi thought for a while, the maid said so much, in fact, there was not much to deal with by himself, and he finally added: "Tell Chief Edi to fully cooperate with the Ministry of Agriculture, I hope that the Western Wilderness will restore the name of the granary." ”
There are no four seasons in the Western Wilderness, there are only two simple seasons, the dry season and the rainy season, during the dry season, the Western Wilderness can only rely on wells for irrigation, and the endless supply of groundwater resources allows crops to thrive. During the rainy season, the western wilderness will usher in three months of rainy weather, and the occasional rains will replenish the groundwater resources consumed during the dry season, while also bringing great convenience to agriculture.
