Chapter 5 Recruitment

After three days, the required house was built, and the craftsmen in the army were amazingly efficient. In addition, there were many people, and they watched as the ground was leveled, and stones were laid to lay the foundation. And the pillars were erected, and the beams of the house were erected, and the roof was sealed, and it was finished.

Most of the houses were only one-story, and only the houses of Fengluo, which were built with two floors, were not completed until the evening of the third day. The tallest is the watchtower, which is more than a foot taller than Fengluo's house.

A fence is set up around it, mainly to guard against wild animals. If there is a real impact of the army, it can also play a role in delaying. Very good location with cliffs in the back and plains in the background.

Feng Luo watched his territory gradually take shape and nodded with satisfaction.

"Adults can recruit soldiers and horses before the big war. Even if there is no war, you must defend your home against the attacks of wild beasts, especially crystal beasts. The captain of the heavy cavalry squad reminded Feng Luo.

Feng Luo was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "adult" refers to himself. He is nothing now, his true identity is a slave of the Haori Kingdom. But it doesn't matter, with the cultivation of the pulse, you can at least get the baronial title.

Baronial titles, the kingdom does not award knighthoods. But if someone gives it away, it is eligible for the territory. Merchants are rich enough to buy land, of course. The land you buy is not the same as the territory.

Owning land only means having the right to control the land. Territories, on the other hand, not only own land, but also have jurisdiction over the inhabitants of this area. Although he could not be a king, he was a lord for conscription, labor, and taxes.

The arrival of war is a great opportunity for soldiers to make meritorious contributions. There may be a lot of deaths, but in the eyes of most soldiers, as long as they live, the gains must be huge.

A person of unknown origin like Feng Luo, in peacetime, even if he went to the king to ask for a reward, he would be hung out for a long time. Then the ministers deliberated, and through the normal process, they could receive the knighthood after about a year. As for getting the territory, it is estimated that it will take another year.

And now that he has to face the attack of the Haori army, Sparky will generously give away the territory. The king, on his part, will be happy to approve it. The ministers will not obstruct it, if you have an opinion, the land belongs to you, and you go to the front line to fight the enemy.

The squad leader knew why, because he also dreamed of a territory. But he still envied Feng Luo, what's wrong with the front line, hit the opposite side, occupy the land on the opposite side, this is the big rear.

"Do you have any good suggestions for recruiting soldiers and horses?" Feng Luo asked the squad leader seriously. He was a newcomer, and although he had inquired for a few days and recognized the names of the places around him, he still had no clue how to manage the affairs of the territory.

"I suggest that the adults recruit about five private soldiers, who have a certain combat effectiveness, and cooperate with you to complete the exploration mission. After a month or two, depending on the development of the situation, it is decided whether to recruit farmers to farm. The squad leader replied skillfully, he had planned his territory in his mind for a long time.

"Five, is it enough?" Feng Luo asked suspiciously, looking up at a few high mountains.

"It's not enough, but your territory has just been established, and there is no one else to help take care of it, and there are too many people to manage. At this time, five squads can help carry out the mission, and you don't need to worry, adults. The team leader answered in detail.

Feng Luo understood that he himself had not gained a firm foothold, and if he rashly let too many strangers enter, he was afraid that he would not be able to control it. After a few years, the prestige has been established, and the children brought in have grown up, it is time to expand the scale.

"Is there a place to recruit soldiers nearby?" Feng Luo used the squad leader as a full-time assistant.

"Prepare Senes Town, you can recruit all kinds of people. But the quality of character needs to be well understood. The squad leader quickly gave an answer, and there was still a bit of fanaticism in his eyes, as if he was managing his own territory.

After settling the villagers and letting them choose a room to tidy up, Feng Luo left. Led by the team leader, we crossed the river, climbed over a hill, and went around to the back of Foote City, where we saw a lively town.

Other towns may have become sparsely populated, with the exception of Bisenes. Because the main commodity of Bisenes is "people".

The state of Davao explicitly forbade the existence of slaves, but the desperate people voluntarily sold their freedom, and the kingdom could not stop it. Since it claims to respect everyone's rights, others can only respect the power to exercise their inferiority.

Slaves are just a part, and many more people really come here voluntarily. For example, adventurers who want to join the army or be hired by the army to perform special tasks. The danger of death is everywhere, but it also heralds opportunity.

Until the crisis moment of war, most armies do not recruit these miscellaneous people. Who knows if there are spies in it, and even if there are no spies, it will take time to train them.

The cohesion of the army mainly comes from military discipline, which needs to be honed over a long period of time. These adventurers have a short temper and strong personalities, and military discipline is difficult to repress. If it is put in the army, it is simply a scourge, and it will greatly affect the combat effectiveness of the army.

Sparker had suggested that the men be dispersed, but they were not accepted for fear of causing unrest. This is just the convenience of Feng Luo, who can find the people who need it.

"Hey, do you need a fighter? Look at my muscles, it's okay to hit ten. The ability to resist attacks is top-notch, not only to help you resist attacks, but also to use it to vent your breath in normal times......" shouted a strong man.

"My pulse qi cultivation is almost at the pulse level, more than half of the infantry, try me. A lean man said.

"Every meal with wine and meat, my life can be given to you!" "I'm a ranged type, ranged attack, absolutely rare......" "Handsome, don't you look at me? I'm a man, but, but ......"

Feng Luo saw a man throwing flattering eyes at him, making a shy gesture, and almost vomited.

"They see war too simply, they think they are needed here. As a result, the merchants fled, and the army did not want them, and even food became a problem. The squad leader scoffed.

"As long as you have enough to eat, it's a good deal. Feng Luo roughly estimated his own food, and felt that it was no problem to feed a dozen.

"Don't take them lightly, adults. At present, as long as you are full, what about after you have eaten? These adventurers are not vegetarians, they are ambitious. Just that person, the day before yesterday, he said that he wanted a knighthood. The team leader hurriedly reminded.

Feng Luo nodded, thinking that the other party was right. The human heart will always be in a state of change, having more and wanting more. If you don't eat, you are happy to have food. When you are full, you want to have a house and a woman. After that, I want more power.

These people in front of them even abandoned their homes in order to pursue their goals. Feng Luo admires their courage, but at the same time doubts their reliability. Those who take risks have a heart that is bigger than the sky.
