1073. Divide the cake 1
Surdak left a 1,500-strong heavy infantry regiment in Acre Town, and arranged for these heavy infantry to be stationed in Acre Town, not to monitor the demons that might appear in the Great Snow Mountain, but to worry that once the army all withdrew from Acre Town, the town would be patronized by countless thieves.
Once the houses in the town were stolen to the point that there were no window panes left, the houses were doomed to sell for no price, and all that would be lost was the money in Surdak's pocket.
Therefore, under the pretext of monitoring the Hell Demons in the Snow Mountain, Surdak ordered the 11th Heavy Infantry Regiment to stay in Acre Town to monitor the movements of the Hell Demons and Black Mages around the town.
The other lords' legions also sent their armies to their respective towns.
For the noble lords, they would prefer a clean, tidy and prosperous town rather than a ruined ghost town.
In Bena Province, there are many landless commoners, and the noble lords only need to promise three years of tax exemption and rent exemption, and are willing to bear the travel expenses, and the young people who want to immigrate to live in the city will grab a large handful, and many people hope to take advantage of their youth to break outside.
So it's important to make sure the town is as it is.
It is necessary to ensure that there are wooden beds, bed sheets, curtains, dining tables, kitchen utensils, cutlery, etc. in each house, so as to save some necessary expenses and attract young people who are willing to live here.
There are always girls from civilian families who are looked down upon by their neighbors because they can't afford the dowry.
They could not violate the laws of the empire and not marry at the age of 25, nor did they want to let the household registration officer assign them to those bachelors at will.
In the Grimm Empire, where the ratio of men and women is seriously imbalanced, most of the men who can't marry wives in these years are violent maniacs with flawed personalities.
Young women who can't afford a dowry will find a man who loves her if they can, and then the two elope together.
And this kind of self-made plane town is very suitable for these young couples.
Keeping an eye on all the property in the town is currently the main task of the town's garrison.
As for cleaning up the remaining hellhounds and cryptmen around the town, in fact, the local garrison will not be overly involved in this kind of thing, because there are many adventure groups, mercenary groups, and witchers who make a living from this.
At present, the dry cloth plane has triggered a craze to clean up low-level demons.
After the news of the coalition's success in recovering the Gamp plane spread quickly, the entire Bena Province of adventure groups gathered on the Gamp plane.
Especially since the Bailin Plane has just finished the beast tide, many adventure groups are still in the recuperation period.
At this time, running to the dry cloth plane to hunt low-level demons can not only collect some magic materials, but more importantly, the Grimm Empire's decree stipulates that adventure groups that hunt demons can apply for tax rebates and subsidies on the plane.
In fact, there are thieves hidden in many adventure groups, just like there will always be some cookie girls in the business group who like to spread their legs to make money.
How to make these adventuring groups honest in the town is the most important thing for the town garrison.
There are nearly 20,000 buildings in Acre Town, and Surdak just picked and chose from a manor villa a while ago, and bought a whole set of furniture for Rita in a uniform style.
After resting for two days in the town of Samp, the Heavy Infantry Regiment set out on the road to the city of Mukuso.
Surdak left behind two heavy infantry regiments in the town of Samp, and appointed the bearded Edgar as the governor of the Sayroman Plateau, responsible for coordinating and managing all military and political affairs on the plateau.
Two months ago, the bearded Edgar was just one of the leaders of the rebels.
To tell the truth, the territory of the entire rebel army is not as large as that of the Sayroman Plateau, and now that the bearded Edgar has become the governor of this place, even he himself may not have believed it before hearing the news.
In addition, Surdak began to let the infantry soldiers in the legion exchange merit one after another, and he was worried that once the legion arrived in Mukuso, the military headquarters might officially receive the 25,000-strong infantry regiment back.
Until then, he had to keep his promise.
However, since the infantry commanders with the most merits of the heavy infantry were less than 50,000 merit, they still had no way to exchange the magic pattern construction with up to 100,000 merit points at the top of the merit list, so in addition to exchanging magic weapons, several regiment commanders also exchanged merit points for gold coins like other infantry members.
Surdak sells the captured cores to the merchant Dirk. Director Quleton, exchange it for a large amount of gold, which will be distributed to the infantry soldiers in the legion.
Merchant Dirk, who has worked with Surdak several times. Qu Leiton, in the last big deal, directly proposed to Surdak: it is better to pick out the magic crystals and magic cores, and those magic cores without magic crystals should not be mixed in, so that the grinding masters hired in the trading house can still have less workload, and the trading house can also take out a less employment fee.
Merchant Dirk has already tasted Surdak's methods, and he will definitely not lose money by trading magic cores, and he doesn't want to make a lot of money, but there is also a profit at all, and after removing the cost of work, at least he can make a small profit of some magic crystal fragments every time.
Unexpectedly, Surdak really agreed, and picked out the magic core with magic crystals and magic crystal fragments on the spot, and also carefully classified the two magic cores into two different boxes and asked him to take them back.
Another thing that Surdak did was to gather all the merchants in Samp Town for a meeting during the two days of rest in Samp Town, and the main topic of the meeting was that the merchants who were willing to stay in Samp Town and open trading houses would be completely exempt from tax for the first year.
For the merchant groups who did not want to stay in Sampu Town to open a trading firm, and wanted to leave the Sayroman Plateau after the end of the war, all the unsellable overstock that was transported from Mukuso City to the plateau, as long as it was daily necessities and food, could be sent to the garrison warehouse, and the logistics department of the Heavy Infantry Regiment would purchase all the materials at a reasonable price.
At the very least, it can ensure that all the merchant groups can transport the supplies to the Sayroman Plateau, and there is no need to pull them back the same way.
The merchant group has this capacity, so it is better to buy some leather and ship it back!
As soon as this decision was announced, the material warehouse in Samp Town was surrounded by a large group of merchants, and it was the first time that everyone had encountered such a good thing after fighting with the army many times.
In fact, Surdak also spent as much as possible on the quartermaster Louis. The magic crystal in Feiqi's hand, except for the part he deserves, the rest of the magic crystals, Surdak plans to distribute some to the infantry soldiers, and then hoard a batch of supplies in Samp Town.
Once you arrive at Mukuso, you will most likely not be able to catch anything.
The black powder kegs, flints, armor weapons, etc., provided by Surdak are all converted according to the price of new products, and with these materials alone, Surdak earned more than 3,000 magic crystals this time.
Surdak was most pleased with the horses and magic pattern constructions, and Surdak also planned to select five hundred first-turn soldiers who were willing to follow him from the 25,000 heavy armored infantry, but on the day of the statistics in Samp Town, there were actually more than 1,300 first-turn soldiers who were willing to leave the heavy armored infantry regiment of the military headquarters and join Surdak's lord legion.
In the end, however, Surdak only selected 1,100 first-turn warriors to remain in his lord's army.
On the day the hoplite regiment arrived in the city of Mucuso, Quartermaster Louis. After a series of calculations, Fitch accurately calculated: the military department originally invested 100,000 magic crystals to let Surdak come to the dry cloth plane to form a heavy infantry regiment, and the armor weapons that needed to be purchased alone were more than 100,000 magic crystals, and the logistics materials during this period had to be counted separately......
Surdak also recruited 25,000 elite infantry soldiers, and the legion currently has 3,000 magic crystals, which is a sure profit no matter how the military department counts.
So Louie. Quartermaster Fitch did not describe the Surdak merit exchange list in too much detail, only saying that the captured loot was returned to the infantry soldiers in proportion.
The coalition forces arrived at the city of Mukuso on 25 June......
