Lord of the North

The journey after 　　 was not as smooth as they had imagined. Dorn and his team encountered a blizzard on their way back. It was originally expected that the journey took one and a half months without finishing.

　　 As if luck has run out on the way to come.

　　 The howling cold wind was mixed with snowflakes, which not only seriously disturbed the sense of direction of everyone, but also made it difficult for them to rest securely. The bad weather made their food hard to swallow.

　　 Several seriously injured hunters in the team passed away because of the bad weather. Everyone endured grief and converged their remains. In the end, only seventeen people remained in the team.

　　 "In another half a month, we will be able to go home."

　　 Dorn looked at the map to comfort everyone and cheer them up, because some hunters have already begun to doubt whether they can get out of the ice field. At this time, the most important thing that cannot be given up is the confidence and hope of survival.

　　The hunters looked at their pet dogs distressedly, and the sled dogs were also exhausted, no matter how adaptable they were, they couldn't stand the long journey.

　　 Everyone tried not to talk too much nonsense and to retain their only physical strength. The expedition members rushed silently, looking forward to returning to their hometown and their families as soon as possible.

　　……

　　 Tieya Town has also been developing steadily during these three months. Jason built a falconer camp next to the barracks, trying to rely on the falcons trained by falconers to pass the news, and it has achieved initial results.

　　 The falcons fly relatively high, and the average archer has nothing to do with it. It is not easy to be intercepted when flying low like a homing pigeon, and the falcons fly very fast.

The chief of the Eagle Shepherd Camp is an old man about the age of Mayor Dia. He is the patriarch of the Eagle Shepherd. His name is Pula. He is small in stature. The prestige among the falconers is very high.

　　Jason doesn't expect him to be on the battlefield, he just needs to pass on his life experience.

He also re-planned the drainage canals and built public toilets in Iron Tooth Town, because Jason's sanitation here is really unacceptable. It just so happens that the soldiers of the Knights of Hodge are useful and are used as coolies to build Iron Tooth Town. Otherwise, Do you keep them for plain rice?

　　 The administrative area, residential area, commercial area and public entertainment area have been re-divided, as well as the military restricted area!

　　 Jason built another arsenal on a clearing east of Iron Tooth.

　　The hunters in the Northland are all good bows and arrows. Although they are not masters, the well-made bows and arrows are still very popular.

　　 And those old hunters can no longer go hunting in the jungle. There are a group of bow-makers who don’t have to stay at home, so they are a bit violent, and their crafts are buried in this way. Jason feels it is a pity.

　　 So he set aside a piece of land in the newly built arsenal for these old hunters to use to make bows and arrows.

　　 This way, it can not only make the best use of talents, but also increase the employment rate of the people in the territory, and it can also sell the excess bows and arrows to other territories, killing three birds with one stone!

　　 and formed a caravan based on the bow and arrow trade, went to the territory of the kingdom to sell, and bought the iron ore that was in short supply in Ironfang Town.

　　 Tieya Town used to have iron ore, and there was a huge pit not far from it, but it was abandoned decades ago.

In the military, Jason also carried out a series of reforms. A three-hundred-man regular army was newly established outside the city guard. The youngest and strong man in the territory was selected for the most arduous training. As a full-time soldier in the town, Yulan Slott is in charge.

　　 While the city guards were handed over to Barry to be in charge, the guards around Jason were taken over by Quick. Jason liked this clever young man very much.

　　 And divided this regular army into two types of infantry and archer, and specially trained the corresponding combat skills and formation, instead of the previous type of infantry, infantry is also a miscellaneous army of archers.

　　 As for why he didn't set up a cavalry unit, Jason was also very helpless. There was only one reason: no money, no cavalry.

　　 can only establish a small part of light cavalry to use as scouts. Although Jason really wants to form a heavy cavalry unit and an archer unit, this is obviously unrealistic for the current Iron Fang collar.

　　The recent various construction plans have already spent a lot of money on Jason’s gold coins. Where can the money go to buy expensive war horses and sophisticated cavalry armor?

　　The cost of a set of armor with a cavalry is worth the tax of a rich village for half a year!

　　 Only those wealthy nobles will form a heavy cavalry unit. This is indeed a big killer on the battlefield. A charge is enough to disperse the enemy's infantry formation.

But Jason doesn’t think they are really invincible on the battlefield. At the time, the heavy cavalry group of the European Multinational Alliance, a powerful cavalry corps capable of destroying the whole of Europe, was brought to life by the Mongolian rangers using kite-flying tactics. It's exhausted!

In addition, the heavy armored cavalry also has many limitations. They have single function, poor reaction power, too slow speed, and too heavy armor. The requirements for horses and knights are too high, and they cannot carry out long-distance attacks. Except for the plain terrain, their impact formation is fundamental. Unable to form.

　　 This type of unit can have a miraculous effect in a flat and open place.

　　 and the armor is heavy, ordinary people must be helped to put on and take off smoothly!

　　 So this kind of expensive toy can only be played by the nobleman, so don't think about it for the time being like Jason.

　　 The clerk who had been sent to the pioneering area also came back and reported on the number of people in the pioneering area. There were 3,522 in total, which is equivalent to one-third of Tieya Town.

During this period of time, the population registration of the pioneering area was carried out, and Gareth was sent to the pioneering area with a hundred soldiers ~www.readwn.com~ as the highest military commander and chief executive of the region, and he was allowed to be in the pioneering area. Recruit an army of 300 people.

　　According to the situation reflected by Gareth, the people in the pioneering area called the pioneering area Erbia, which means the dark city!

　　The reason is that at the beginning, the Tieya Town government had too little supervision over Erbia, which caused no order here, so it was called the dark city.

　　 There are always some people who want to get something for nothing, so these people gather together to do some illegal activities, just like the hand-to-hand meeting in the town of Iron Tooth, oppressing goodness and extorting all evil.

　　In this period of anarchy, they have become another "regime"!

　　 But these civilians who came to the pioneering area were poor people, and brought all their belongings to Tieya Ling to fight. Now they no longer have the option to regret, they can only pin their hopes on the government of Tieya Town.

　　 Soon after these criminals were rampant, Gareth came, just like Jason’s **** cleansing before, he executed the first evil in public, and all the rest were demoted to slaves, built walls, and dug drains!

　　 Afterwards, Jason didn’t bother to rename it, and directly informed Gareth: “The murderers, the wounded and the thief were demoted to slaves, and the pioneering area was officially named Erbia Town.”

　　 He intends to use thunder to purge Alba's order, and entrust Alba's power to Gareth. He has absolute trust in Gareth's ability.

　　 The current underground forces in Erbia have disappeared after half a month of military suppression.

　　 Seeing that everything is gradually steadily moving towards the right track.

　　 Finally, on this morning, what Jason had been talking about recently...the people from the business alliance came.
