Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 248 246. Neil's Camp

At noon on May 5th, Rand and Tanya left the territory to go west. In the morning, Rand went to the water purification plant in the east of the city. With the joint efforts of the algae goblin and the grass goblin, they finally The algae that can grow in the sewage pond and the reeds that grow on the shore have been cultivated. The sewage that has been sedimented and purified many times can completely allow the weakest fish in the river to survive before being discharged into the river.

After successfully completing the task, the algae goblin was re-arranged to return to the fish pond of Rotor Castle, where it continued to cultivate the potion algae.

Rant and Tanya raced all the way, passed the West 4 station in the afternoon, and arrived at the West 5 position before the knights arrived, and then Tanya manipulated magic to build castles and watchtowers to ensure that the knights and signal squads who came over People have places.

The next night, Rand participated in a joint training with the Knights. He and Dugan led 300 knights to charge over the wall, like overwhelming mountains and seas.

With the addition of two high-level knights and intermediate monsters, the entire knight group is like a torch, igniting all obstacles ahead.

"To be honest, your knight order looks very beautiful, but I don't think it will be used." Tanya kept analyzing beside Rand at night.

"Why?" Rand was a little puzzled, "Maybe the barbarians of brown bears will defend the iron mine?"

"Then your biggest opponent is also their high-level leaders, not ordinary barbarians."

Rand knew that what Tania said was reasonable, but on the other hand, his knights hadn't practiced collectively for a long time, and he really wanted to have a good time.

Rand and Tanya set off early the next morning and arrived westward at Camp No. 6 West, where they had just set up camp. After Tania finished building the castle, they continued westward, and half an hour later they caught up with the road being repaired. The two earth fairies.With Tanya's participation, road construction became extremely simple and fast, and the tens of meters wide Luoyue River was no longer difficult to pass.

After comprehensive exploration, Rand decided to build the West 7th Camp on the bank of the fork between the Luoyue River and the Benma River, not only as a post station and fortress on the road, but also as an important point of the waterway.

Of course, Neil's camp is not at this location now, but 10 kilometers south of the fork, Lante is not in a hurry to build the No. 7 post station, and directly takes Tania there to rest.

After crossing the Luoyue River, the grasslands in the west were more undulating and there were more small rivers. The 300 knights formed a fan and marched towards Neil's huge camp.

Neil's camp was so obvious. Not only did it occupy a huge area and the tents were very loose, but it also occupied several small hills, making it easy to identify from a distance. Such a huge scale made Dugan behind Rand start to murmur.

"Neil has a lot of troops in his hands!"

"Look at Neil coming," Rand saw Neil holding a galloping flag from a distance, and Nedland Wilson leading dozens of people to meet him.

"My lord, you're here!" Neil was so excited that he was almost speechless when he saw Rand.

"You did a good job." Rand was also a little surprised when he first saw Neil's camp. It already had the temperament of his own camp back then. "There must be more than 200 cavalry here?"

"Almost, there are still 20 human races, more than 70 half-orcs, and more than 30 half-dwarves." Neil was really about to cry, "My lord, there are too few black-scaled horses here, only 100, mainly the four-horned pack beasts." , eat more than black-scaled horses, I don't have enough food here!"

Neil didn't deliberately conceal his strength. Originally, he only annexed the surrounding 4 or 4 medium-sized tribes in mid-April, and sent most of the non-magic, half-orcs, and half-dwarves eastward with iron ore and pack animals. Send it, and keep the barbarian cavalry in the camp at around 5 as much as possible.

However, near the end of April, the grassland has completely warmed up. More tribes followed the practice of previous years to buy iron ore, and after learning that the iron ore could not enter, they gathered around Neil's camp. The camps were merged, and the latter simply set up camp on the periphery. Everyone opened the market, first exchanged information, and then looked forward to Neil's ability to lead people to attack the iron mines.

Many tribes who were waiting to join in the fun suddenly discovered that a large group of cavalry like Rand came over mightily, and began to send people to investigate near Neil's camp, and some leaders directly brought people over. It was lively for a while.

. . .

Neil welcomed Rand into his tent and introduced him to Rand as the leader.When the outsiders left, Neil began to formally report the results of this period of time.

Since he arrived outside the iron mine on April 4th and annexed the Longhorn tribe, he has successively annexed 7 medium-sized tribes around him, and sent all the non-monsters and barbarian cavalry without black scale horses to the east. A total of 4 batches This time, there were a total of 3 human demon possessors, 20 barbarian cavalry and more than 100 non-magic, as well as 800 half-dwarves and 10 half-orcs.

After Rand clearly informed Neil that he was about to lead a team to attack the iron mines at the end of April, Neil stopped migrating population eastward, and the surrounding tribes gathered more and more. All Neil could do was to redeem the human races in each tribe. , incorporated into the Knights.

According to Neil's statistics, there are nearly 15 tribes around him. These tribes rely on selling iron ore or revolve around the iron ore industry. There are a total of 300 demon possessors and 1500 demon-free tribes.However, these tribes did not just express their willingness to submit, and they were not counted as the population of the Benma family.

As the information continued to gather, Neil also roughly figured out the situation in the iron mine. In the entire iron mine, there were more than 350 human demon possessors, nearly 4500 human non-devil possessors, 500 barbarian demon possessors and 2700 barbarians. As the iron ore trade has come to a standstill, the mine is in crisis of food shortage.The iron mine even sent representatives to look for Neil, hoping to borrow some of the food.

"Is their representative a human or a barbarian?" Rand suddenly became interested when he heard the representative.

"Human race, and a human mage," Neil recalled, "this man is called Karl Billy, and he said that he is not only a mage in the iron mine, but also a lot of knights." "According to what he said, they were assigned to For a few years here, brown bears are at most their caretakers, not their masters."

"It's so loud, why was it sent to the iron mine for being so powerful?"

"Then I don't know, but he boasted that there are several high-ranking knights in their mine, all of whom dominated the kingdom back then, such as Petraeu Lanyuan, Bit Baixiao, and what's the other name. ..."

"Waynes Lanyuan?" Dugan Blue Dragon on the side suddenly said.

"Ah, that's right, that's the name." Neil didn't remember the name of the human race very clearly, "Captain Dugan, have you heard of this person?"

"Hmph, these people actually ran together!" Dugan made a disdainful voice.
