The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

This year, the winter in Weissas is calm and peaceful.

The feather-like snow came as scheduled.

But in one night, Wissas became white, with crystal snowflakes covering the streets, roofs, and treetops. The Pal Mountain in the distance was also wrapped in silver, and there was a kind of sight. Different kind of beauty.

early morning.

Old Andrew pushed open the door, let out a sigh of relief, rubbed his cold palms and took out a shovel to clean the snow accumulated outside the house.

After a while, Mok, who lives next door, also walked out, and after greeted each other, they started to shovel snow while chatting.

The content of the two chats was nothing more than their daily work and the situation of their son in the soldier training camp.

Salt in the summer, soda in winter.

The Cogit Sea is still magnificent, and the salt drying plant on the coast is still busy.

However, due to the impact of heavy snow recently, the work on the salt drying plant has been temporarily suspended, and the work on the production line has been reduced a lot.

Although there was no way to go to the salt field because of the heavy snow, Old Andrew didn't panic at all.

His wife became a cook in the subsidy station, and the money was settled every day, and two copper coins were given out every night when she returned home.

Not only that, but those who volunteered to work at the subsidy station were given two coats to keep warm on the first day.

The thick coat he was wearing was brought back by his wife.

Mork sighed: "I heard that Earl Beavis Elliott ordered the gates of Fort Como to be closed again. Now no one can come out and no one can go in... Fortunately we left Como early. Yibao."

Old Andrew was indeed very thankful.

Had it not been for his son to steal money from him and pay the head tax and then ran to sign up, now he would not dare to expect such a good life, I am afraid he would regret it like a slave trapped in Fort Comoy.

Old Andrew thought of his son, and that the three-month exercise assessment was also approaching.

"Mike returned last time and said that this quarter's assessment is going to the northwest side of Parr Mountain for actual combat exercises. The two chiefs have already taken people to survey the terrain in advance. When that time, the lord will follow along."

Mock did hear his son Maier talk about it.

The northwest of Parr Mountain is remote and dangerous. People have been missing before, and others have been dragged away by brown bears... almost no civilians or slaves will go there.

Since learning the news.

Mork was a little worried.

Old Andrew could see clearly: "What is the danger? All the soldiers in the soldier training camp will go, and the master knight will lead them. Even the wolves have to avoid them."

Mok nodded, his heart relaxed slightly.

He was envious and said: "Your Mike is really upbeat."

"Not only did he win the first place in the last drill and received a reward, he also became the squad leader. I heard that he is now highly regarded by Lord Knight Commander."

Old Andrew is proud: "He has always been very assertive and works very hard."

The winter drill is about to start three days before.

Fort Comoi.

A guest was welcomed in Beavis Eliot’s castle.

The identity of this guest is Matthew Luke, the earl from the Kingdom of Gaynor.

The huge benefits of selling salt are coveted.

Even though Xia Zuoyi had given up 60% of the benefits to the king, he still had enough in his hands to provoke the temptation of greed for the interested.

After Bivis Eliot went to the letter.

Buss Ridges once again had the thought of taking Wissas his own.

But this time, it was impossible to directly send a knight disguised as a robber to assassinate it like last time.

They need a thorough plan.

Therefore, Buss Ridges secretly contacted a very ambitious Marquis of the Gaynor Kingdom.

This marquis is a direct descendant of King Gehnar, has the right to inherit, and the chance of success is not great.

Bass Ridges throws the bait. After Wissas belongs to him, the refined salt will be sold to the Marquis at the lowest price, and the Marquis will sell it at a high price to earn intermediate benefits.

The Marquis agreed to Bath Riches' plan and ordered the nearest lord next to Fort Comoy to come and cooperate, that is, Count Matthew Luke, who was enshrined by him.

Beavis Elliott had long before received news that Desinia would also go to Parr for a winter drill.

The knights brought by Matthew Luke and the knights he sent to meet on the northwest side of Parr Mountain, set up traps and ambush in advance, so that Desinia would never return.

After killing Desinia, Matthew Luke pretends to take over Wesas, and Beavis Eliot leads them to rescue. The two play a scene, and Wess will be taken over smoothly.

But Beavis Elliott thought of the number of soldiers in the soldier training camp, and felt uneasy.

"Have you ordered someone to lie in ambush? There are a lot of soldiers with that little boy from Desinia, just in case..."

Matthew Luke sneered: "What are you worried about, it's just a mob of untouchables, how strong can it be if there are so many people."

"Didn't you have done all the investigations and only trained for six months, do you really think that the untouchables can compete with the knights?"

"Master Marquis attaches great importance to this cooperation, and even sent a team of knights in his territory. We will not be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers... Knight Commander Dinah, where did you lead someone to ambush?"

Behind Matthew Luke stood a knight commander who belonged to the Lord Marquis, standing tall, wearing a thick armor, and a helmet covering his face. He could not see his face clearly.

The knight commander rushed back to Fort Komoy to report the mission after he was in ambush. Hearing this, his voice was dull and said, "In the narrow valley on the northwest side of Parr."

Matthew Luke said to Beavis Elliott: "You just wait for the drill three days later to kill people in Parr Mountain. This time, it must be foolproof."

The money and the army squad are all there.

Xia Zuoy decided to arrange the winter exercise as a practical project on the northwest side of Parr Mountain, and took advantage of the opportunity of the exercise to find the natural asphalt mine.

The streets and housing of Westbrook need to be remodeled.

Mining construction in spring, volatilized moisture in summer and autumn, completed before winter next year, just can move in.

Xia Zoe's little abacus slammed.

He was afraid of the unpredictable weather, and the originally scheduled drill date was advanced one day. After he had brought the necessary items to the soldier training camp, he set out to the northwest side of Parr Mountain.

A part of the knights stayed behind Wess, the rest followed.

Turn over to the southeast of Parr Mountain.

They walked to the flat valley area in the middle of the mountains on both sides, and there was a frozen lake in front of them, surrounded by wide grasslands, and at the moment they were also covered with ice and snow.

Xia Zoe ordered a stationed rest next to Lake Pal.

The next exercise will also begin from here.

The snow hasn't completely melted, the ground is muddy, and carriages can't get into the mountains, they can only ride horses or walk.

Therefore, the Yan Yanshi wrapped by Xia Zuoyi was carried by Udit on his chest and rode up the mountain.

Gibran and Toby did not follow, but stayed in the castle.

Udit dismounted first.

He then stretched out his hand and carefully hugged Xia Zoe from his horse back into the camp that the soldiers had already set up. After a while, Fernandi and Walker also walked in, holding a small stove and heat in their hands. Good dry food and water.

Xia Zuoyi: "I don't know if the ice on the lake is thin or thick. Let the soldiers stay far away and don't go there."

"Yes, Lord Earl."

Walker William glanced out, and Taylor Kennedy turned and left, taking orders.

Xia Zoe sipped hot water, nestled warmly in the thick blanket, not wanting to move.

He looked out through the open gap of the tent. The mountains were filled with vast winter mist. After the wind blew, it slowly dispersed, and the frost on the treetops was crystal clear and translucent, trembling slightly...

Xia Zuoyi sighed and thought that the valley of Paar Mountain will be very beautiful in spring, with green lakes, grassy grasses all over the mountains, paved verdant green, long green carpets...the place is open enough and spacious enough.

He was in a daze for a while, and suddenly an idea popped up in his heart.

The castle is built on a cliff on the coast of Cogit. Even if you have a panoramic view from above, the seaside is wet after all, and it is even colder in winter...

In addition, the Cogit Sea has a large demand for development, and there is still a lot of value worth exploring. The salt drying ground alone only occupies a small position on the coast.

If he wants to continue to develop the marine economy, it is really not a good choice for the castle to be built on the seaside in the long run.

It would be better to rebuild the castle in Pal Mountain.

For example... the shore of Lake Pal?

The more Xia Zoe thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea.

At this time, a bit of surprise and surprise flashed under his eyes.

Then he calmly told Udit that he wanted to take a nap.

After Udit and others went out.

Xia Zoe bent her eyebrows and smiled: "098, you are back from the trip."

The system interface made a "ding" just now, and the stickman with the number 098 on his head knocked on the universe mailbox and appeared.

[Surprise, host, 098 is back with a gift. 】The stickman compares his heart to Xia Zuoyi.

Xia Zuoyi was puzzled and curious: "What gift?"

System 098: [It's a very pleasant gift. It's in the mailbox of the universe. The host may wish to guess first, and then release it after 098. 】

Xia Zoe: "...Give me a hint."

This Buddhist system will even tease the host.

098: [Furious and cute will roll. 】

"...Flush? Can your cosmic mailbox still deliver living things?"

[Yes, is it convenient to be around the host? 098 can place gifts around the host. 】

Xia Zuoyi thought: "Wait for now, I need to find the right time."

[Good drop, 098 don't worry. 】

After the rest.

Fernandi Edward announced the specific content of this winter drill.

The winter exercise is completely different from the previous exercise.

Ordinary soldiers and reserve soldiers fight each other. The two sides are enemies with each other. Each carries a small flag. Ordinary soldiers are blue flags, and reserve soldiers are red flags.

Both parties occupies a location according to the map, with a narrow valley in the middle.

The soldiers' drill task is to insert the flags behind their respective base locations, and no matter what methods are used, they lurch into the opponent's base locations and **** the opponent's flag.

Afterwards, take the stolen flags into the small valley for protection. In the specified time, which side grabs more flags, which is convenient for victory.

Such actual combat exercises not only test the soldiers' potential combat capabilities, but also test the soldiers' random response strategies.

Whether it is to **** the flag or guard the flag, it requires the tacit cooperation and flexible minds of the soldiers to face difficult problems.

Xia Zoe came up with a winter drill.

Fernandi and Valk led the knights to survey the terrain in advance and draw a map.

The narrow valley in the middle of the map is where the natural asphalt mine is located.
