Now Lin Xiao is very short of manpower, and these people can just use it to help him transport the iron ore to Fengsha Village. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

You must know that Fengsha Village is not an ordinary bandit village, there is an iron mine there, and many iron-making and steel-making kilns have been built, and there are various workshops.

The most important thing is safety, steelmaking technology is very important, if it is stolen by the Kingdom of Middle Earth, he will have no advantage.

It will be extremely difficult to fight against the kingdom of Middleland, so the steelmaking technology must not be exposed!

And so much iron ore can't be transported away for a while, Lin Xiao is also ready to lose, he doesn't want to lose so much iron ore, just enough to use Fengsha Village as a transit station.

If he defeats nature, it is best, and if he is defeated, the loss will not be too great, and these iron ores are completely enough for him to use.

Although there was a way out, Lin Xiao did not plan to abandon Huangsha Town and concentrate the labor force here for the construction of the city wall.

At the very least, the original city wall should be strengthened in case Huangsha City sends cavalry, he only has infantry at present, and he has no advantage against cavalry.

Forcing the residents of the town to work for him is naturally not efficient, and in order to improve efficiency, Lin Xiao also formulated a piecework model.

The more work he does, the higher the pay, and even if it is not very high, he is very generous to these civilians.

In just two days, the walls of Huangsha Town were reinforced, and there was no need to worry about being easily knocked down by cavalry.

A week passed, and the soldiers sent by Huangsha City finally arrived, and there were 1,000 of them!

You must know that there are only 5,000 soldiers in the entire Huangsha City, which is still the sum of the various nobles, and it is incredible that they can send one-fifth of their troops out.

After all, the lord of Huangsha Town is the Gray World State, and a small rider is not worth their help at all.

What's more, this knight has just been robbed, and he is poor and white, and it is unlikely that he will pay anything.

However, Lin Xiao soon knew the reason, it turned out that he had captured the iron mine.

The owner of the iron mine, Viscount Ella, has less than 500 troops, so he can't send all his troops, at most 300 troops.

After the exaggerated descriptions of the soldiers who fled, Lin Xiao's original strength of only 100 people was said to be 200 people, all of them were extremely fierce, so their defeat became a matter of course.

Coupled with the arrest of his own cronies, Viscount Ella had to turn to other nobles for help.

But those stingy nobles would not help for free, and after paying a lot of money, Viscount Ella borrowed 100 people from the nobles who had a good relationship with him.

Originally, the matter was over, and this gray Shibang jumped out of nowhere, exposing the actual situation of the iron mine.

The small iron ore in the mouth of Viscount Ella has directly turned into a medium-sized iron ore.

This information has been concealed by Viscount Ella for many years, in order to avoid being coveted by other nobles, after all, his iron ore is not strictly legal.

Small iron ore is relatively common, and it is impossible for other nobles to rob small iron ore that is not too valuable in order to offend him, but medium-sized iron ore is different......

The nobles, who were originally reluctant to send troops, suddenly became generous, and gathered nearly 1,000 troops, known as the righteous crusading army.

This made Lin Xiao, who had just learned of the enemy's strength, frown, he originally guessed that no more than 500 soldiers had been sent, but he didn't expect that it would be doubled.

His iron ore has all been shipped away, there are no worries, and it doesn't matter if he is withdrawn at any time.

But after seeing that the incoming enemy forces did not seem to be one, not only were they differently equipped, but they were also camped separately, he broke off his plan to withdraw.

It is much easier to deal with an army under the command of several generals than it is to deal with an army under the command of a single general.

And the logistics of the enemy army is also a problem, running from such a far place in Huangsha City, they did not bring much grain and grass, and at most they held on for 3 days.

Lin Xiao can supplement from Huangsha Town, and also bring a lot of grain and grass from Fengsha Village, and it will not be a problem to insist on it for 3 weeks.

With so many advantages, he naturally couldn't withdraw easily, at least he had to bite off a piece of the other party's flesh to let the other party know that he was not easy to mess with.

If you want others to respect you, you don't rely on other people's charity, as long as you beat them up, you will face yourself squarely.

Otherwise, if he wants to gain a foothold here, he will still be coveted by these feudal nobles!

First of all, we can't let these feudal nobles think that they are afraid, and the momentum must be fought out!

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao gave an order to go down and dispatch 200 clone soldiers, preparing to confront the soldiers of Zhongdi outside Huangsha Town.

The general of the crusading army didn't expect that the bandits who were cowering in Huangsha Town would dare to come out...... Well, in their opinion, the occupation of Huangsha Town was just a group of bandits, after all, Lin Xiao did not use any name.

This kind of behavior is only done by those robbers, but when a robber captures a town, he usually loots it, unlike him who takes it and does not leave.

The nobles fought for their interests, and they also needed a name, and their name this time was to regain the territory for the lord of Huangsha Town.

Gray Shibang did not produce a single soldier, and became the supreme general of the entire crusading army - nominally, without any rights, that is, by name.

Even if Lin Xiao withdrew, the crusading army would still be able to exist, after all, he had provoked the authority of the nobles, which was also a reason for crusade.

If you can run a monk, you can't run away from the temple, and by the way, you can clear the robber's lair and add some merit to yourself, and they are also very happy.

Before the battle, a general rode a tall and good breed war horse, came to the front of the battle, coughed twice, and said: "The bandits on the opposite side have invaded the territory of the lord of the Gray World State, and a spy sent out told me that they brutally slaughtered innocent civilians in the territory, and after the strong wheel women checked, several little girls under the age of 5 did not let go of ......."

Saying this, the general's eyes were red, as if he had seen the atrocity, and his adjutant hurriedly handed over a handkerchief.

The general cleaned his snot and continued: "They are all demons, not only did they do these evil deeds, but they also killed our Bud officer, he also has an unborn girl, but unfortunately now there is no father, you are all the bravest warriors, let's drive these demons out!" ”

The morale of the soldiers in the Middle Ground, who were not very high in morale, increased their morale greatly when they heard these words, especially the subordinates of the Bud officer, who all glared angrily at the enemy troops not far away, eager to kill all these 'demons' now!

Seeing that the morale of the soldiers of the crusading army was all mobilized, several generals glanced at each other, gave orders in unison, and launched an attack on the enemy.

Several soldiers of different forces seemed to be twisted together at this time, like a big hand grasping it.

Lin Xiao frowned and looked at the enemy army, when did the other party send spies over, but he blocked Huangsha Town, and it was impossible for outsiders to have spies sneak in.

These generals are also too shameless, they hacked themselves like this before the war, if he wasn't the one involved, he would almost believe it!

He originally wanted to take the officer he had captured before as a hostage, but the other party didn't give him a chance at all.

The pressed Bude's face was as dead as ash at this time, and it seemed that the nobles had given up on rescuing him.

Lin Xiao was a little sympathetic to Bude now, he didn't have time to think about it, the crusader army had already killed the clone soldiers......
