Chapter 56: The Secret of the Fishman (I)

There are many issues to consider, but there are not many things in front of us.

The number of slaves accepted along the way is close to 500, plus their own 300 people, Lei Zhe's subordinates seem to have a team of 800 people, which is not a lot of people, but compared to the on-site property left by Wells, it is obviously difficult for Lei Zhe to manage.

Wells once had only half the territory of Turku, and Reich had a total of three viscounts and a large number of barons and knights, and most of the territories were given away except for his own farmland and the city of Rost.

So the actual management did not seem to be difficult with the help of Adolf and Colmar.

Now you have to plan everything yourself.

"See the airship?"

"Well, I saw it, and it made a loud noise. ”

"Let's hope Koria won't forget this. Lei Zhe sighed, he couldn't contact the outside world, he should have negotiated everything in the first place, but his brain was still turning a little slower.

"Do you have any thoughts on these fishmen?" After a few days of hard work by the knights, the temporary tribes of the fishmen were marked on the map.

"Kill. ”

"Won't there be any risk?"

"In terms of combat effectiveness, according to the observations of the past few days, the strength of the fish-man tribe in Trenrat should be four thousand, and the blue-scaled fish-people have found more than sixty in total, these should be the first level of command, and there are redgill fishmen above the blue-scales, I don't know if it is their leader. ”

"How many redgill people are there?"

"At present, only six have been found, and the preliminary estimate is that it should be a four-level system, if it is just this kind of combat power, it will take a day to clean up these fishmen. ”

"Are you sure?"

"We've found a lone redgill man, and we can draw a rough conclusion just by actually fighting. ”

"Let's do it when we find a time, even if no fish-people escape from what is happening here, presumably those fish-people are about to learn the news, and it will be a trouble to wait for them to gather. ”

Sixty VS four thousand, Lei Zhe doesn't know where Colmar's confidence comes from, but in this case, he will naturally trust his subordinates.

"And my lord, a few civilians died of exhaustion this morning. ”

"Dead?" Lei Zhe frowned, this kind of thing of dead people sounded a little uncomfortable.

"Well, their bodies weren't good before we came, those fish-people let them do some high-intensity labor every day, and it's a lucky thing to survive, it's normal to die these days. ”

"Are you going to bury it?"

"Don't bury it, the temperature here is too high, and the corpse is prone to plague, so find a place to cremate collectively." ”

"Yes, I don't know if I should say it. ”

"Say it. Lei Zhe looked at Colmar strangely, this guy has never been a sell, and he doesn't know what he wants to say now.

"The high-intensity labor in the past few days, although there is some dissatisfaction among those civilians, but you provide food so they don't complain, but this time the dead people can't be small shocking to them, I think you should slow down the progress, their bodies still need time to recover, if they are overworked, they will collapse. ”

"Are you overworked?" Lei Zhe was silent, the eight-hour work day was a very reasonable way, but Lei Zhe felt that the working hours were less.

But he himself ignored a problem, that is, this kind of labor is manual work, and the aborigines of Turku have not been nourished for a long time, and everyone is skinny and unpresentable, so continuous overwork is burning their own lives.

Naiyu's request for food, they could only endure it.

"Well, those men are fine, women are ......"

knocked on the wooden table, if you want to build a home in a hurry, you have to work hard, think about it carefully, you are indeed in a hurry.

This anxious Lei Zhe understands where it comes from, although the current situation of the Holy Empire cannot be determined, but the north and east will definitely join forces to rebel, and as a person in power, he definitely does not like to leave his fate to others.

When he first entered the Holy City to be judged by others, Lei Zhe felt this way, he was not an ant, but someone treated him with the attitude of an ant, and the lack of strength made him have no chance to resist at all, so he could only take a fluke to avoid and forbear.

But one day he couldn't escape.

"Let those people have less work to do, work from morning to noon, and change to something light in the afternoon. ”

"My lord, this will make the others unhappy. ”

"The dissatisfaction is also because they think they are doing something for me, Adolf, you have ordered the people to write down all their labors, and say that the Earl will be rewarded in the future, and those who work will be rewarded, regardless of status. ”

As soon as Lei Zhe's news came out, most people were naturally happy, and they were a little depressed when they ran to this place where birds don't, and they had to do hard work day and night to change no one's comfort.

Everything was ready, Colmar led the knights directly to the territory of the redgill army, and when the fishmen noticed the appearance of a group of knights, they were already in a hurry, and they took up arms and resisted.

It's just that the battle is close to one-sided, and the knights who have cultivated the fighting spirit are not something that the fishmen can compete with, which makes Colmar feel a little strange is that the combat power of the redgill leader is not as high as he imagined, and the battle is over after a few back and forth sprints.

These fish people were also good food, but Lei Zhe felt a little disgusting to eat this thing, and the food would not have problems in a short time, so he gave up the plan to eat fish people.

"Do you know what this is?" The town is surrounded by ten huge stone pillars that have been erected and carved with strange symbols, and it is known from the mouths of the slaves that they were asked by the fishmen to build these pillars and altars.

"Os...... Krumah Altar?"

"What?"

"Oskruma, one of the ten evil gods of antiquity, the prophet of the seas, and the lord of the Naga Siren. ”

"This altar can't be used to summon evil gods, right?" Lei Zhe's eyes widened, how could all the bad luck happen.

Lilith shook her head and walked over to the altar, taking a closer look at it, it was the same as the picture in the book, but the lines on the pillar had not yet been fully engraved.

"The altar is not used to summon evil gods, but to activate some kind of evil god spell, and as for what kind of spell it is, I can't tell what is carved on these stone pillars. ”

"Knight Captain Colmar, is this the only place with a stone pillar?"

"Not only that, there are four stone pillars, from the NET Mountains to the Trentian Desert, and there are forty stone pillars in total. ”

"Tsunami tide!"
