Chapter 123
There are not enough people, the skeletons are not usable, and seeing that Satan's great plan is about to run aground before it has even begun. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Of course, he didn't want to give up, and he didn't want to wait too long, so he set his sights on Sui Xiong.
If mortals can't do anything, they can only ask the gods for help.
Sui Xiong thought for a moment and asked, "Leon, Orian, and Anna, can you transfer people from your three territories?"
At present, although the Gerten Territory, Gars City, and Keane Territory each have their own subordinate countries, but because the Church of the Void Mask occupies an absolute dominance in the local area, it is almost an enclave of the Northwest Republic, and the labor force of a thousand people is really unthinkable for the Northwest Republic, but it should not be difficult to complete it if it is dispersed to their three territories, right?
Orien Gerten was the first to reply: "We can draw two hundred to three hundred people from our side, and I'm afraid any more will not work." Agriculture, stationery factories and medicine fields all require a lot of manpower. ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to transfer 300 people on my side. Anna Keane, who usually rarely speaks, and really "uses more ears and less mouth" sighed, "Keane has a small population. ”
"Then I'll take care of the rest. Leon laughed, "But give me some time—about two months, and in two months, I'll have the rest of the men together." ”
"It must be reliable! There must be no tricks in between!" Satan emphasized, "Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it's a big deal!"
"That's why I only need two months. Leon said confidently, "Don't worry, in two months, the men I have sent to you will be absolutely faithful and reliable!"
So the matter was settled, and Mrs. Tigue would raise as many supplies as possible against the current reserves, and the three territories began to recruit and transfer personnel in preparation for the start of construction in two months.
After the meeting, the city lord of Garth City, Carissa Riley, asked worriedly: "That's five or six hundred people, can we really draw so many? Such an important matter, it is always unreliable to recruit outsiders......
After decades of training, Carissa is no longer the "No. 1 Vase on the East Coast", and although she may not be called a capable official, she is at least not worse than most lords in this world. She still knows a lot about the situation in Gars City, and even if she calculates a little, it is actually difficult for Gars to draw so much surplus labor at present.
"What's so hard about this?" Leon smiled, "We can replace the workers in some of the projects we are currently working on, use the recruited people to do our projects here, and send reliable workers who have stood the test of time to the Northwest Republic to help build the magic circle." Two months is enough time for those novices to slowly become proficient, and they will not be delayed. ”
Only then did Carrissa understand what he had in mind, and nodded her head repeatedly.
It's actually quite simple, but most people don't think about it for a while.
Of course, even if Orianne Gerten and Anna Keane thought of it, they might not be able to do it. The Gerten Territory is relatively remote, the population is not large, and it is not easy to recruit new people, but the Keane Territory is convenient, but the surrounding territories are not very friendly to them, and they are almost surrounded by them, and it is even more difficult to recruit people than the Gelten Territory.
In the past, when they recruited people, they usually used teleportation circles to go out to recruit people. This is not only costly, but also the recruited manpower needs to settle down first, and they can't be put into work for a while, so for them, it is really impossible to transfer so many people, and it is not intentional to shirk.
In contrast, Garth City is not only convenient for transportation and commercial, but also the overlord of a large area around it—in the face of the sword of the "Juggernaut", the heroes who dare to say "no" have almost all received a glorious ending, and it is believed that they will be praised for their bravery in their respective kingdoms of God.
As for the rest of them now, they have all bowed their heads honestly, and even sent their own children to Garth to study and be hostages, even if they were given a gut, they would not dare to hinder Leon from doing things.
The name "King of the Seashore" is not blown!
Leon basically doesn't have much difficulty recruiting people, the only trouble is that the new recruits may have too many spies in their hands. So he had to send local workers to the Northwest Republic to support the construction, and the local construction work was handed over to the newly recruited outsiders.
As for whether there will be spies among these newly recruited migrant workers, whether these spies will cause sabotage? Leon didn't care at all.
Whoever is a spy makes trouble, he will make a note in the black notebook, and when he has time in the future, he will personally carry his sword to the door and discuss it with the heads of state who sent spies.
Of course, his attitude must be friendly and cordial, but he doesn't know if the other party will get a sudden illness or something because of his poor health.
Anyway, it doesn't matter to him, whether it's his heart suddenly stopping, or yelling for a short time, or writing inexplicable words and swallowing his breath...... None of this has anything to do with him, he has an alibi anyway.
A strong man at the peak of the legend wants to find a little trouble for others, how can he leave a flaw!
It wasn't long before all three territories began to recruit men.
Coincidentally, at this time, the Land of Thousand Springs was also recruiting. However, they recruited men to invade the Dwarven kingdoms, and the three territories of Faceless Faith recruited people to build their homes. With similar salaries, many low-level adventurers would rather go to Gars City to work as laborers than serve as soldiers in the Land of a Thousand Springs.
It's not just a matter of money, it's true that being a worker is harder, it's not as easy as being a soldier, and there's no extra money to win a battle and loot, but who dares to guarantee that the country of a thousand springs will be able to win?
The adventurers are very well-informed, during this time the relationship between the Orc Empire and the Dwarf Kingdom is heating up, and the new emperor of the Orc Empire, Ilo, even said that if the Dwarf Kingdom really encounters a major crisis, he will not mind putting on a battle and helping his new friends to fight - although this is definitely just a scene, it can be seen that the Orc Empire's support for the Dwarf Kingdom is very strong.
With the support of the Orc Empire, the Dwarven Kingdom is not the weak country that was defeated by the Land of Thousand Springs in the past, and the kings were killed several times. Whether the "Broken Cloud Mountain Range Exploration Campaign" in the Land of Thousand Springs can get a better result this time is still a question mark!
Naturally, the official propaganda is not to be believed, and even the most optimistic among the more common among adventurers at present believe that the Land of a Thousand Springs will only have a slight advantage this time. It is basically impossible to win one after another and seize a large amount of wealth and mineral deposits, as in the past.
The more pessimistic view is that this time the country of a thousand springs will definitely suffer defeat, which is nothing more than a matter of losing more and losing less. The most pessimistic, even suspecting that the army of the Land of Thousand Springs may be defeated this time, and will be counterattacked by the combined forces of orcs and dwarves, and the land occupied in the past will also be lost.
Either way, all in all, this battle will definitely be a tough one. Hard work means death, and of course the dead die mercenaries first. If there is no other choice, since there is the option of "going to work in Garth City", then except for some artists who are bold, or who want money and don't want to die, most adventurers after weighing the pros and cons still decide to go a little longer and go to Garth.
After all, it is safe to be a worker, and adventurers are seeking to make money, not to play with their lives!
So unconsciously, Leon actually gave a lot of blows to the Thousand Springs Kingdom without using a single soldier, and strongly supported the cause of the Dwarven Kingdom to resist the invasion. (To be continued.) )
