Chapter 135: Construction
Not many days after the war, the earth began to rejuvenate, the warm sun swept away the harsh winter day, and the people who took it were lazily just looking for a place to take a nap. Apex Novel xstxt.
In order to express gratitude to these warriors who have come to the aid of the Saiyan tribe, Xia Zuo, who has made a lot of war money, in addition to paying each warrior the necessary battle fee and the pension for returning to the arms of the heroes in the arms of Kampas, he also generously allocated a thousand sets of standard armor lined with chain mail and outer steel armor, which is tightly protected, the gaps are precise and tiny, and does not affect the agile movements of the warriors, with the current smelting level of Kampas, this process will definitely not be able to be achieved with the current smelting level of Kampas, a thousand delicate swords of the Human Empire and 10,000 gold coins for Wren to recruit new recruits.
The Campas warriors, who didn't know that Xia Zuo was specifically harvesting in this war, accepted this batch of gifts with a little shyness and gratitude, and they all smiled, and even Wren involuntarily cracked his mouth, boasting that Xia Zuo was the most generous Camppass.
Leaving with them were DeLong, and the elite of the 100 veterans led by Delon, they belonged to the mercenary group under the Woods family, and now that the war against the human army is over, there is no reason for them to stay here, and they must return to the Woods family's residence in Dallas Manchester City.
The warriors and clansmen of the Saiyan tribe gathered outside the tribe to see them off, they held hands with each other, and said blessings, although they knew each other for a short time, but they had already established a deep and sincere relationship on the battlefield.
"Take care, brother!" said Delon's eyes with a look of pity. gave a blow to Xia Zuo's chest who saw him off, "I look forward to fighting side by side with you again!"
For them, Xia Zuo generously offered a huge amount of compensation, but Delong did not accept it, but only accepted the armor and weapons that Xia Zuo had selected for each member.
Soon, after the reluctant parting and noise, the tribe returned to the quiet prosperity and boredom of the past, and annexed the small tribes before the war, so that the population of the Saiyan tribe was about to break through the 5,000 mark, and the original tribe was already overwhelmed, but fortunately, the long cold winter was finally about to pass. The city that Xia Zuo had been planning for a long time was finally able to start building.
Then there were the large numbers of human prisoners of war. These people are the greatest treasure of the Saiyan tribe, and more than 500 of them are being treated, while the rest are absenteeism in the quarries, although the daily consumption is enormous. But their hefty ransom payments will easily offset their losses.
At the same time, there are also a large number of horses. Armor. Weapons, heavy axles, and the sustenance that the human army carried, Xia Zuo was not short of money now. So there is no intention to sell these things in the slightest.
Although the Gravel Wasteland is desolate, it is vast, once his city is built, it is completely capable of stationing a large number of troops, anyway, he has the authorization from the Woods family, as long as he can afford it, it is not a problem for him to form as many legions as he wants.
Among them, Xia Zuo took the most fancy to the two thousand delicate longbows, such a sophisticated weapon, the Campas people did not have a long-range offensive means, which Xia Zuo knew from a very early age.
But as early as when Walden led the Rohan tribe to join the Saiyan tribe, Xia Zuo had an idea, but it could not be realized because the Campas craftsmanship was not up to standard, and now the captured bows and arrows brought Xia Zuo's idea out of his head.
That is the Mongolian cavalry archery that crisscrossed the continent in the previous life, and the Mongolian army swept across the Eurasian continent in the previous life, relying on the Mongolian knights who were skilled in bows and horses.
Rely on horse speed in the enemy's pursuit to shoot, if the enemy escapes, you can also shoot in the pursuit, during the battle, it can be thrown around the enemy's periphery into an encirclement, constantly consume the enemy's physical energy, torture the enemy's will, and then charge after the enemy is tired and completely defeat the enemy.
In the previous life, the cavalry and archery tactics spanned the Eurasian continent, and the heavy cavalry of Europe at that time, the expeditionary crusaders were all captured, but this warrior had extremely high requirements for the knight's equestrian skills, and he needed to clamp the horse between his legs, and he could shoot stably and accurately in the rapid gallop of the war horse.
But for the centaurs, there is no such worry at all, the centaur warriors who are horses are born with a unity of men and horses, they come and go like the wind, even with heavy Kai can easily throw off the enemy, and can launch a deadly surprise attack at any time, and the iron will and perseverance also meet the basic requirements of archers.
After Xia Zuo and Walden discussed, the excited Walden didn't sleep for a few days because of Xia Zuo's genius idea, and couldn't wait to lead the centaur warriors to prepare for training, and little by little Xia Zuo's idea turned into reality, this idea is entirely possible to make the centaur rangers extend to another archer class.
The only problem now is that the tribe has too few centaur warriors, and after repeated battles, the centaur warriors including Walden are less than twenty, which obviously cannot form an effective attack scale.
However, Xia Zuo is not very worried, he is now a rich man, and when a large amount of ransom arrives, he can buy centaur slaves in Dallas Man, of course, there are also minotaur slaves, on the battlefield not long ago, Delong's huge Minotaur will be a domineering scene of heavy cavalry and horses waving up, Xia Zuo still remembers, this kind of strong heavy infantry, how can the Saiyan tribe not have it, if it can, Xia Zuo even wants to see a force in the Saiyan tribe of all races in Campas.
Lying lazily on the roof basking in the sun, thinking of the upcoming grand occasion of the Saiyan tribe, Xia Zuo couldn't help but chuckle.
"Damn stinky boy, I've finally found you!" Suddenly, a head with messy hair suddenly stretched out from the side, his vicious red eyes were full of resentment, as the commander-in-chief of the city's construction, the old Griffin only took a few days to have the moisturized oil on his face dissipated and became a lot haggard.
"Ahem!!" Xia Zuo, who was caught lazy, coughed slightly in embarrassment, "I'm too tired, take a break here! Aren't you commanding on the construction site? Why do you have time to hang out here!"
"Hanging out?" "Hanging out?" Old Griffin, who climbed onto the roof with difficulty, jumped to his feet and scolded angrily, this damn bastard boy, looking at his dirty and haggard appearance now, there was a little bit of wandering, and threw the drawings in his hand to Xia Zuo, "I don't like the dirty broken drawings of your hand-made paper, I really can't understand your twisted ghost drawings, and now the workers don't know what to do, you go and explain it to them yourself!"
"Can't understand, how could it be!" Xia Zuo picked up the drawings suspiciously, although he had not studied engineering in his previous life, he had seen a lot of drawings, even if they were not standard, he would not be unable to understand them.
Unfold it, even Xia Zuo's face can't help but blush, because with more abundant capital, Xia Zuo's sketch has been changed again and again, layer upon layer, it looks like a mess entangled, the scale of the city continues to grow, the city wall alone has been expanded outward three times, according to Xia Zuo's current plan, the outer city wall is twenty meters high, and can accommodate five war horses running side by side.
"Okay! You are old, I will personally go to the construction site to explain to the workers!" Xia Zuo saw that the old man was still angry, and hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to reassure, the old man has been really busy recently, not only to look at the construction site, but also to take care of the tribe, dozens of years old people's eyes are red, Xia Zuo is really a little reluctant to think about it now.
After calming the old man's anger and letting him rest, Xia Zuo hurried to the city construction site on the bank of the Bison River Valley with the drawings.
The perimeter of the site is surrounded by tents of supplies captured from the human army, which are now home to human prisoners of war, artisans, and orc coolies.
A large number of human prisoners of war were wielding steel shovels and digging foundations in the hard ground of the Bison River Valley, and until the ransom arrived, they were still slaves in the hands of Xia Zuo, and the Saiyan tribe would not keep such a large idler for nothing.
On the heavy axle pulled by four war horses, there were huge boulders polished and smoothed on the quarry, two meters wide, surrounded by groups of strong orcs, dragging the stones forward with circular sawsaws.
There are also many Saiyan warriors mixed in the crowd, they are neatly arranged, and the stronger the ** after cultivating the fighting spirit, so that they can lift such a boulder one by one, and carry the boulder for the newly built castle to hone their physical strength, which has become one of the daily training of Saiyan warriors.
A hundred construction craftsmen from the Morrison Chamber of Commerce, with the intelligent apprentices they selected, surrounded each other with a look of embarrassment, and there were roaring disputes in the community from time to time.
Xia Zuo naturally did not get angry because these craftsmen were bent on the construction of its city, and carefully explained his plan to the craftsmen with the drawings, how thick and high the city wall is, how many meters there will be an arrow tower, how to build a defense on the outside, where is the granary and animal fence, the barracks where the Saiyan warriors are stationed, the commercial street, the market, the residential area, and even the streets, drainage, and even toilets, Xia Zuo carefully explained his plan one by one.
The craftsmen would give Xia Zuo appropriate advice based on their own experience, and would argue with each other from time to time, and Xia Zuo would also put forward some theories from his past life in a timely manner to inspire the craftsmen.
The Munch apprentices looked at their leader with reverence, the all-powerful Divine Envoy, who was not only smart and good at fighting, but even knew how to build, which made them feel immediately glorified. (To be continued......)
