Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries.

Chapter 54 Military Aristocrats and Mining Reform

"Stop talking about that."

Gooden waved his hand, diverted the topic, pointed to the bound orc and asked.

"What are you going to do with these orc captives?"

"Bring it back to Jinyuan City for interrogation. The orc scout brigade can quietly enter the territory of the empire. This is a very serious matter."

"It is estimated that there will be a frontier army to sweep and inspect the nearby territory soon."

It would be a good thing for Gooden if there is a professional team to clean up.

After all, the private soldiers he set up were completely unformed in terms of combat effectiveness and quantity. If he wanted to carry out such a dangerous sweeping mission, I am afraid that it would not be enough to serve the orcs as a snack.

"However, according to my follow-up investigation in the past two days, I am afraid that all the invading orcs are already here."

For this already semi-secret issue, Dedalo did not hide it and told Gooden directly.

"Are you sure?" Hearing Dedalo say this, Gooden frowned slightly.

"Yes, with such a large army entering the country, eating, drinking and lhasa is all a problem. It is easy to track the number of people."

Dedalo's explanation gave Gooden a sigh of relief.

"Huh, this is the best, otherwise I will still have a headache on how to develop these mines."

When he met the orcs again tonight, he still wanted to temporarily withdraw the development of the mine.

Without the full development of iron ore, the demand for manganese ore will not be particularly large. Even if the mining miners are removed, it will be enough to bring people to fetch some in the future.

When development is on the right track next year, it will not be too late to send garrisons and miners to the mines, but it seems that there is no need to do so now.

"In addition, Lord Lord, I will report the battle truthfully tonight, and I will also truthfully turn in the certification of the orcs you killed."

"In terms of military merit, someone should come to check with you. If you have a large amount of military merit, you should already be the baron when we see you next year."

The titles of the Allrea Empire are basically exchanged for military merit. Do you want titles?no problem.

First go to the battlefield to kill a hundred enemy troops, and then give it to the lowest baron, not hereditary.

If you want to reach the hereditary level, it is not just a hundred enemy heads that can be achieved.

Only those who have at least made outstanding contributions in wars and campaigns are likely to get it.

For example, several hereditary lords near Jinyuan City were all shot and killed from the expansion frontier, and their gold content is very high.

And Gooden himself does not have a title, and becoming a lord is a huge advantage.

"Then borrow Captain Dedalo's words." Gooden wasn't particularly fond of titles like titles.

It's just a title of aristocrat, his plan development is to be a bastard in Qingyuan Town and enjoy every day, and he has nothing to do with expensive or not.

"By the way, will this orc invasion be announced?" Gudern asked quickly after thinking of something.

Dedalo thought for a while, then shook his head and explained.

"It shouldn't. This kind of thing has too much impact on the surrounding area, and the news should be suppressed as always."

It turns out that there have been incidents of orc invasions in the past... Gudern nodded thoughtfully.

The two chatted one after another, and at the same time, the soldiers below had also completed the sampling of the 'loot' and piled the bodies into the pit for burial.

And the people who died in the battle were taken and sent back to the military camp for memorial service.

Looking at the team that had been reorganized, Dedallo asked Gooden.

"Okay, Lord, the placement here is almost done, I should also withdraw, do you want to join us?"

"So anxious?"

"The documents on your body are too important and need to be sent back to Jinyuan City as soon as possible."

"Well, I still have things to do here, and I have to return to the mine later."

The two of them had different ways, but there was still an explanation for the miners. After all, the imperial soldiers were still holding a group of prisoners.

After a brief handover and understanding, the two teams parted ways.

By the time Gooden and his party retrieved the horses and returned to the manganese mine, the sky was already slightly bright.

The veteran who had been on guard all night, watching the Lord Lord return safely, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The unexpected situation last night made all the miners tremble with fear.

Although someone will spread the word that the Lord is afraid to lead people to escape first, such remarks were quickly suppressed by the veterans at the head.

"Last night the imperial army was wiping out the gangsters who had been fleeing in. Now they have all been wiped out, don't worry."

Back in the mining area, Gooden will directly inform everyone about Dedalo's good words.

As soon as they heard that it was to exterminate the wandering gangsters, everyone's hanging thoughts slowly landed.

After the simple notification, Gooden didn't explain much, and returned to the camp where he rested last night to sleep for a while.

Today, he has to go to the iron ore field, and it is not easy to do things without energy.

I slept for four or five hours this time, and it was not until about ten o'clock in the morning that Gooden was woken up.

Rubbing his sullen eyes, Gudern briefly took a shower, briefly chatted with the miners, and then went to the iron mine.

The nearby landforms and surfaces were recorded on the map, and within an hour after departure, everyone found the iron mine.

As with the manganese mine, a wide variety of equipment is kept in the mine.

But unlike the open pit mine of manganese ore, the iron mine is an underground mine, which needs to be entered from the mine to mine minerals.

In remote places where things like explosives have not been fully born and popularized, the cost of developing underground mines can be several times that of open-pit mines.

This is also the reason why the Lantega family wants to sell the mine, even if it is the iron ore that makes money.

Observing the bits and pieces in the iron mine, Gooden then directly entered the mine.

The temperature inside the mine is much lower than that outside. Although it is just autumn, the scorching sun in the sky has not yet receded.

The cool cold wind blew out of the cave and drilled directly into the clothes from the neckline, making Gudern who was not ready to shiver.

Els, who was the temporary escort captain, was the first to explore the way with a torch, followed by Gooden.

Looking at the uneven mine, Gooden was thinking about how to develop this thing.

The mine is not deep, and everyone walked three to 40 meters to the end.

Although there are three fork roads, one of them has been submerged by water and cannot go down, and the remaining two are about the same distance.

The people on the side held up the torches, and Goode was touching the mine wall, wanting to know more.

But what happened next stunned Gooden for a moment.

Can this thing be modified? !

【Name: iron ore vein】

[entry: water seepage, geological hardness]

[Introduction: A buried iron ore vein]

[Water seepage: This mineral water is easy to seep]

[Geology is hard: the veins are hard, and the mining difficulty is greatly increased]
