It may still be a bit crude that these policies to corporatize agricultural work, but in any case, the effect that the lord wanted was working.

After the lord's policy was decided, all the people in the territory were frantically clearing the wasteland.

In just two weeks, more than 500,000 pounds of grain were turned into seeds – almost every production group took almost 5,000 pounds of seed grain!

You must know that there are only 11 people in a group, including the leader of the non-commissioned officer, and it is necessary to change to the normal state of Pande, and each group can save at most 1,000 children and 800 pounds of grain and plant dozens of acres of land.

But now, almost every group has reclaimed 300 acres of land.

Yes, two acres of land per capita per day – you know, this is a wasteland!

Mai Xiangling, a thousand people, actually built more than 30,000 acres of land in two weeks!

Along the road, a large wheat field stretches from Mai Xiang Ling to the direction of White Deer Fort, and this territory has become a veritable Mai Xiang Ling.

In order to prepare for the future, the lord also required all farms to dig pits in the wheat fields and fill them with wheat straw and plant ash.

And everyone is required to urinate in the pit, but to defecate in the field or in the latrine.

This is not for the purpose of storing fertilizer......

It's for nitrate.

This kind of soil method is not high-tech in the Pande continent, because the Pander people would have used this way to obtain high-purity saltpeter.

However, the Pande people used it mainly for tanning leather or curing meat, and occasionally as fertilizer.

If it is explained in a scientific way, it is that potassium carbonate solution can turn sodium nitrate into potassium nitrate in saline-alkali soil.

Small kiosk

The main component of plant ash is potassium carbonate, and potassium nitrate is often referred to as saltpeter.

If you bury wheat straw, fallen leaves, and plant ash in a field, and then pour the urine of people and animals into it, you can harvest a lot of saltpeter in the coming year.

The output of saltpeter will also be assessed as part of each group's output.

Amy followed the lord's mode of operation throughout the whole process, and applied some of these policies to White Hart Castle as well.

For example, group competition.

Although the knights under White Deer Fort can't control her, Godric's direct lords can do the same.

Godric himself had nearly 1,000 households, but the population was only about 3,000.

The population of each household in the border county is particularly small.

Amy overhauled the lord's policy, running it in groups of five and managing it with Godric's guard.

The reason for this was that Godric had previously used the method of recruiting five households and one ding, and this was how his own guard of 200 men came from.

Running the task force with conscripts from these families was not a bad thing at least, and Godric's guard was clearly loyal enough.

After all, the people of White Deer Fort don't have any shares or anything like that.

Godric also happened to be able to change the guards of Long River - now that Long River has stabilized, let his elite troops under his direct command defend his territory, and let the newly recruited soldiers cooperate with the horn to summon the Ranger Regiment as the garrison of Long River, which is also Godric's plan.

And the internal competition method used by Amy in White Deer Castle is more traditional.

To put it simply, the first few administrators, the members of the guard, will become knights and own the land that their group has cultivated.

The groups with the worst grades will be heavily taxed.

There are some slight differences in the method, but the effect is still good, and Bailubao has also reclaimed nearly 50,000 acres of wasteland during the half-month sowing period.

At this moment, Mai Xiangling is really connected to Bailu Fort, and the road between the two places is full of wheat fields and farms on both sides!

……

In early May, spring and summer intersect and the climate becomes warmer.

This is also the time when spring wheat is planted in the area south of the Tongtian River.

Normally, at this time of year, there is a truce between the countries of the Pander continent, and this year is no exception.

After arranging the internal affairs of the territory, the lord asked Sir Roland to be in charge of the security of White Hart Castle, and Anson to be in charge of the affairs of the McXiangling, while he took the Mettenheim and Amy and Sarah south with a convoy to the territory of the Bacchus Empire.

The destination, of course, is the port of Dilin.

He was going to solve the famine of the Metenheim.

After Sir Roland joined the team, Sarah was finally able to give up her training work and start serving as a foreign officer in earnest.

She has compiled a lot of information and information for the lord, such as everything related to the Bacchus Empire.

The Baccus Empire was not originally a native of the Pander continent, they came from the continent of Amara overseas in the south.

The former Bacchus Empire was a major power in the continent of Amara, and once formed a three-kingdom situation with the Barclay Empire and the Pande Kingdom.

In other words, three continents stand together.

There were two groups of human ancestors living on the continent of Amara.

One is the Gubax ancestors, who lived in the plains and coastal areas of the Amara continent, and were mainly engaged in agriculture and fishing.

The other is the Gatu ancestors, who were originally nomadic herders living in the steppes of the continent of Amara.

Later, the Bacchus ancestors established an unprecedentedly powerful first empire of Cubax, with unprecedented cultural prosperity and national strength, and the Chatu ancestors were only vassals of the Bacchus people at this time.

However, powerful empires are always destroyed by civil war, and after the Bacchus First Empire completely ruled the continent of Amara, it was divided due to cultural barriers.

The ancestors of Amara gradually evolved into two different peoples, 'Bacchus' and 'Maritin', and the Maritins established their own state and occupied part of the continent of Amara.

From that time on, the ancestors of Cato were no longer attached to the Bacchus Empire and became a warlord-style independent power.

At this time, the Bacchus Empire was known as the Second Empire of Cubax.

But even if it is split into three parts, the Bacchus Empire at this time is still strong, and can still compete with the Kingdom of Gupand and the Buckley Empire, and even has a larger population.

By the year 198 of the Pande calendar, the kingdom of Gupande quickly collapsed due to the Red Death, and the royal family died of disease in waves, and only a few days after the king's death, his successor also died of illness, and several kings were changed within a month.

This situation will naturally cause the lords of various places to have some thoughts that they should not have in the first place.

Coupled with the Misty Mountain tribes, the Misty Mountain tribe took the opportunity to invade on a large scale, and as a result, the kingdom of Pander became fragmented in a short period of time.

First, the northern Raven Realm, which faced the barbarian army of the Misty Mountains alone but had been unable to receive support for a long time, declared independence, and they gathered the lords of the north to form an alliance to defeat the rebellious Misty Mountain army, and then established the Raven Kingdom.

After that, the various lords in the south saw that the kingdom of Pander was too weak to crusade against the rebellion, so they established themselves in the city.

For a time, there were countless principalities and counties on the Pande continent, and the Pande Kingdom was completely caught in the warlord melee, and there was smoke everywhere.

Naturally, neither the Buckley Empire nor the Bacchus Empire will give up this good opportunity to invade the Pander Continent.

But these two powerful nations, before they could swallow the weakened kingdom of Pande, fought over who could get a bigger piece of the pie......

The two sides fought from sea to land and from land to sea...... But the two sides were evenly matched, and a protracted war of attrition ensued. But neither side can retreat, otherwise the progress will be lost.

As a result, the fight between the two sides lasted for several years, and both countries were dragged into the quagmire by the war, which allowed the Pander Continent to take this opportunity to resurrect the Jedi.

Alfred, the Lion Duke of the Pander Kingdom, defeated many rebellious warlords during this period, established a large dukedom in the center of the kingdom, and gathered countless knights in his camp.

And, because he had sent troops to support the Raven Realm to repel the army of the Misty Mountains, there was a comradeship. As a result, his dukedom formed an alliance with the Raven Kingdom, announcing that he would temporarily put aside the internal fighting and jointly resist the invasion of enemies from the outer continent.

The war between Bacchus and Barkley, which lasted for several years, was too draining, and there were also many contradictions to be resolved at home. And Pander was resurrected under the alliance of the Raven Realm and the Lion Realm.

This is once again a three-way trend, and the cake probably can't be divided.

As a result, the three countries re-signed the peace agreement.

However, before the ink on the agreement was dry, the Second Empire of Guguacs sent General Osa to lead a large fleet and expeditionary force to land directly from the port of Dilin in the southern part of the Pande continent, and invaded Pande without a declaration of war.

This was a raid to tear up the agreement, and the people of the Pande Continent did not expect the emperor of the Second Empire of Gubax to make such a decision at all!

Since the peace agreement was signed, the kingdom of Pande, which thought that there would be no more foreign enemies, was dealing with internal turmoil, and Alfred, the Duke of Lion, was crusading against other independent rebels at this time, and there was no time to react.

The southern part of the Pander continent is basically all small forces, and they basically do not obey the command of the kingdom, and have almost no ability to resist.

General Osa made his way north, and the only decent resistance he encountered in the middle was the Knights of the Radiant Cross - this order had been treating the Red Death plague in the southern part of the Pander Continent, and put up desperate resistance as soon as it encountered the invasion, causing General Osa a lot of trouble.

However, a single healed knight could not stop General Ossa's conquest, and in the Battle of Sagan Forest, the Knights of the Radiant Cross were besieged by the Imperial Legion, and the Knights' combatants were lost in the fierce battle, and the remaining civilians and healers had to surrender.

Impressed by the Order's dedication, General Ossar accepted their request for surrender and retained the Order's symbolic cross.

Then General Osa made a breakthrough all the way to the Lion City.

In the face of life and death, Alfred, Duke of Lion, issued a call to all Pander Lords, hoping that all of them would abandon their internal conflicts and unite with the outside world to go to Lion City to resist the invaders.

The lords of all places felt the truth of the death of their lips and teeth, and they stopped their soldiers, gathered their servants to sort out their equipment, and gathered outside the Lion City.

With Alfred as their marshal, they held General Osa back near the Lion City with a determination to fight to the death, and established the Seven Forks Fortress there.

Subsequently, a long tug-of-war began.

At this moment, Alfred can be called the guardian of the Pander Kingdom.

And Lady Luck finally stood on the shoulders of the Guardian.

After a year-long tug-of-war between attack and defense, news of the assassination of the emperor and the rebellion of the snake worshippers in the country came from the mainland of the Bacchus Empire on the continent of Amara.

The Second Empire of Bacchus, which originally had a vast territory, ended up similar to the Pander Kingdom, and quickly fell into a bloody civil war in a short period of time.

The mighty Bacchus Empire also fell apart in just one month, becoming dozens of duchies, city-states, and kingdoms.

The most powerful of these regimes was a religious state founded by serpentine priestesses, and the reason for the emperor's assassination is obvious.

And General Ossa, who was far away on the Pander continent, was in a stalemate - his homeland was destroyed, he had lost all support, and even lost contact with the continent of Amara, and he had no way back!

After thinking for a long time, General Osa evacuated the Seven Forks Fortress.

He decided to consolidate his gains and rebuild the Bacchus Empire.

In the southern part of the Pander continent that he had already occupied, he claimed to be a conqueror, executed and exiled a group of nobles in the south of Pande who were not loyal to him, and after recruiting some lords, he became emperor in the coastal city of 'Siyuan City'.

His country, which is now Bacchus, can also be called 'New Bacchus'.

The name of Siyuan City, as well as the name of the Emperor's Harbor, was changed by General Osa when he founded the Neo-Bacchus Empire.

From the names of these cities, one can probably think of the state of mind of General Osa at that time.

But the places conquered by force are not so easy to manage.

In order to be able to rule the people of southern Pande, General Osa incorporated the Radiant Cross of Arms into his elite cavalry.

He re-established the Knights of the Radiant Cross with the remnants of the civilian staff and healers as the main body, and led by example to protect civilians and caravans, so that the army could practice chivalry as much as possible, and win the approval of the people with the fact that he did good and eliminated evil and the influence of the Radiant Cross.

This approach has worked well.

Although these cavalrymen were not true knights recognized by the Charter of Varydes, the citizens still believed in the Radiant Cross and believed that they were the continuation of the once noble Knights of the Radiant Cross.

Although General Ossa's usurpation of the throne was condemned and ridiculed by almost all the lords of Pande, in any case, he survived with the lone army on the expedition to Pande, and also achieved the purpose of his arrival - conquest.

And those Gatu people were originally mercenaries brought by General Osa from the continent of Amara.

After the collapse of the Cubax Empire, the Cato mercenaries defected from General Osa and went to the eastern steppes to become independent warlords, known today as the Catu.

This defection was actually the work of Alfred, Duke of Lion.

He gave all the horse breeding land of the Pander Kingdom, a large grassland in the east of Shihu City, to the Gatu, and allowed the Gatu to plunder in exchange for the cooperation of the Gatu.

The new Emperor Ossa, who had lost the mercenaries of Cato and the support of his mother country, could not defeat the Duke of Lion and had to accept a close match.

The defection of the Gatu led General Osa to use a similar method, causing the Duchy of Dexia, which was originally subordinate to the Pander Kingdom, to defect as well - General Osa gave the southern towns of Singal and Turda, which were about to be occupied, to the Duke of Dexia.

This meant that the Dexia people could begin to transform from nomadic to semi-nomadic and semi-sedentary, and the Duchy of Dexia, which had acquired the rich city of Singar, could no longer succumb to the barren desert, and it would be enough to resist the retaliation of the Pander Kingdom.

As a result, this fierce people rebelled away from the kingdom of Pander and became an independent principality.

As a result, the Pande continent has become a stalemate between many parties.

The Raven Kingdom stands off the Misty Mountains and the Van Skerry pirates;

The kingdom of Pander had lost most of its territory and was surrounded by enemies on all sides, unable to reclaim its homeland;

The Neo-Bacchus Empire and the Duchy of Dexia were both newly established and needed to be consolidated and digested.

So the Pander continent ushered in a strange truce.

And the situation of Alfred, Duke of Lion, was not optimistic at this time. As a powerful minister, he was subjected to a great deal of rebuke - Pande had almost no royals left to serve as king, and only an infant was left.

Others, of course, suspect that this is the work of some powerful minister......

But it didn't take long for even the baby to disappear mysteriously.

As for why this royal heir disappeared, Sarah didn't find any information, and probably no one would disclose these secrets......

In any case, Alfred, Duke of Lion, was condemned and attacked by countless nobles loyal to Pande, and it quickly turned into a civil war.

But at this time, if the intensification of internal friction breaks the weak balance of the Pande Continent, it will be needless to say.

I don't know what the Duke of Lion had in mind at the time, but the result was that in a few months, with the support of the Lion Knights and the Cato, he suppressed all disobedience with the fastest and most violent means, and expelled or killed all the lords who attacked him—this was obviously not something that could be done by a simple frontal war.

Then, he usurped the throne and established the kingdom of the lions, and the kingdom of Pande fell.

No one knows the exact inside story, but in any case, this lion king has indeed stabilized the country, and has put together a strong fighting force, which is enough to compete with enemies on all sides.

Alfred, the Lion King, and General Ossa, the Bacchus Emperor, are actually lawless usurpers.

But were they really careerists from the start?

Not necessarily.

Before the fall of the mother kingdom, General Osa was a famous general and an invincible conqueror, and he probably had no intention of establishing himself as emperor. After founding New Bacchus, he also devoted himself to protecting his subordinates and people, and never launched any 'conquests'.

And when the Pander Kingdom collapsed, Alfred, the Duke of Lion, was also the marshal who turned the tide and was the guardian of Pande, and he did not declare independence when the Pander Kingdom was fully divided by warlords.

But after repelling a strong enemy, he became king instead......

Maybe it's for profit, maybe it's for saving the country, maybe it's for ambition - maybe it's all there, who knows.

The world is like this, full of accidents and full of changes.

These are more than 150 years old.

Today, the Bacchus people who remain on the continent of Amara are divided into two parts.

Some of the Grey Descendants, known as the 'Greys', are descendants of the Bacchus who still resist the Serpent Cult in the ruins of Cubax, and they have established a federation to resist the Serpent Cult.

The other part is entirely a follower of the Serpent Cult.

The Serpent Cult established a large religious state on the site of the Second Empire of Gubax.

Whether voluntarily or forcedly, the Bacchus who have converted to the Serpent Cult are invading all continents, including Pande, while attacking the remnants of their fellow Greys.

And the route of the Snake Worship Sect's invasion of the Pander Continent is almost exactly the same as the route of General Osa at the beginning.

They also landed near the port of Emperor's Ring, and then gradually eroded the populace from south to north, and slowly infiltrated the upper echelons of the Bacchus Empire.
