1081. Earl of Clay Cushing

 The people in Ruit City stood on the wall separating the city areas, watching from a distance the grand scene of 20,000 heavy armored infantry boarding the ship.

Marquis Luther's magic caravan drove directly into the airport terminal. A group of officials from Ruit City, big and small, were waiting at the airport terminal to see Marquis Luther off.

When Marquis Luther boarded the ship, Suldak saw that Great Swordsman Chester and Great Swordsman Quintas were already standing on the magic airship, and a thousand constructed swordsmen were also on board.

I have been accompanying Marquis Luther for the past two days, and I was not able to say goodbye to the two great swordsmen Chester and Quintas in person before leaving.

At this time, Surdak could only give them a military salute from a distance.

The magic airship slowly left the tower and then took off straight into the sky...

Only when the magic airship completely disappeared into the clouds did Surdak look away. He stood on the airport tower and looked at the city below him.

This is the first time that Surdak has seriously appreciated Ruit City. The entire city looks like a five-level reservoir designed by Surdak. Each area has a separation wall, and the upper area

In addition to one castle that already belongs to him, there are less than twenty luxurious manors, and the lower level of the city is ridiculously large, filled with crowded rows of buildings, and there are also connecting passages between these rows of buildings.

Surdak found that this city seemed to be a war fortress specially designed for war. In the entire urban area in front of the city, the rows of buildings were connected together, and the roofs were more like city walls. During street fighting, soldiers could

Rooftop, attacking the streets below from a high position.

Earl Clay Cushing had a gray beard, but he was full of energy. He smiled and said to Suldak:

"Everything here will be yours from now on. Look, Mukuso and Ruit were like twin stars at first. In the past, Ruit City relied on the Ganbu plane to transport supplies in order to survive in Luther.

The Marquis' army came to the city, but it still held out for half a year."

"Now, you can completely use Ruit City to feed back Mukuso City. When Mukuso City returns to its previous prosperity, the two cities will become an inseparable whole, and the resources of the Ganbu Plane will continue to flow.

After being transported from Ruit City, the resource radiation area will be the entire Tarapagan area."

His beard was neatly trimmed, his aristocratic dress was also very luxurious, and he was followed by a team of personal guards.

Earl Clay Cushing was not in a hurry to leave. He stood on the tower and pointed to a road extending north outside the city and said:

"The city of Ruit is not far from Constantinople, only two days' ride on horseback."

Then he pointed to the large field outside the city and introduced to Suldak:

"Luit City is rich in flax. It has the largest flax planting area in the Bena Province. In addition, the textile workshops in the city have also formed a certain scale. However, this place has just experienced the rebellion war of Lord MacDonnell's army. The surrounding towns

All suffered varying degrees of damage.”

Earl Clay Cushing pointed to the stairs on the tower, and the two of them walked slowly down the stairs.

Surdak asked:

"Aren't there any minerals around here?"

Earl Clay Cushing pointed to the mountains in the distance to the west and said to Suldak:

"In the past, the largest rich iron ore in Bena Province was located in the Simang Mountain area west of Luyt City. However, the iron ore field was completely hollowed out fifty years ago. Now, due to the

The mines are riddled with holes, and problems always arise during the rainy season, with cracks in the earth and land subsidence occurring frequently."

Having said this, Earl Clay Cushing also touched his forehead helplessly and continued:

"Currently, three towns near the mine are facing collective relocation issues."

The two of them moved to the east side of the tower. Count Clay Cushing pointed to the mountainous area on the east side and said:

"There used to be coal mines in the eastern valley, but now they have been hollowed out. The exposed land is mixed with a lot of coal gangue. No one wants to open a farm there. Before, some small trees could be planted every year to cultivate some oak trees.

Lin, but everything has been put on hold for the time being."

Surdak knew that the most famous thing about Helensa City was the Oak Ridge. The oak trees growing on that mountain ridge almost nurtured the entire city.

But when he heard that Ruit City had not only iron ore but also coal, he asked:

"Since there is such a big iron mine here, is there a steel smelting workshop in Ruit City?"

Earl Clay Cushing did not hesitate to point to several large chimneys rising into the sky on the west side of the slum area at the bottom of Ruit City and said:

"Of course, that is the largest slum area in Ruit City, and the steel smelting workshop has been shut down for decades."

Surdak looked from a distance, but unfortunately it was too far away, and he could only see a few large chimneys, and nothing else could be seen.

Ruit City is much larger than Helensa City...

Before returning to Mukuso City, Surdak walked around the slums of Ruit City and looked thoughtfully at the large chimneys.

Earl Clay Cushing's eyes fell on the ragged civilians on the street. He was a nobleman with traditional ideas. He didn't care much about the lives of the poor at the bottom. He only felt that if they were too thin, they would not have the energy to work.

Already.

After all, the normal operation of this city still requires the hard work of these people at the bottom.

But now Earl Clay Cushing doesn't even bother to think about these things because he is about to retire.

"I'm ready to enjoy the wonderful time in my later years. I'm going to go to the Imperial Capital while my legs and feet are still flexible, and then go to Haiyinsi to see the sea."

"I still have three small towns that need to be managed well."

After saying this, he smiled proudly.

"This city has already entered its twilight years, and it is difficult for a conservative-minded old man like me to revive it with new vitality."

"But you are different. You will have some new ideas, and you are also good at fighting. You will bring resources from a new dimension into this city and bring fresh blood to this city."

"I have lived in this city for more than 40 years, and I don't want it to be slowly forgotten."

Earl Clay Cushing sat in the carriage and said these words to Suldak.

Surdak looked at the street market outside the window and said: "It will not be forgotten. Ruit City is the only entrance to the Ganbu Plane. It will not take long for this place to return to its original prosperity."

"I heard that you are preparing to go to the big battlefield?" Earl Clay Cushing asked.

"Well, after entering the second rank, I haven't received a call-up order. I heard that I was suppressed by the military department. I guess I can't suppress it anymore."

"Come back quickly, you can't always squeeze an old man who can enjoy his old age, this last happy time," Earl Clay Cushing urged with a smile.

"Okay, I will come back as soon as possible." Suldak nodded.

The carriage circled around the slums and then slowly drove towards the city's central square. Surdak wanted to return to Mukuso City through the portal.

Earl Clay Cushing said sternly:

"Ruit City will give Mukusuo City the greatest support, but all this will be under normal transactions. I also want to ensure that the merchants can obtain sufficient benefits."

Surdak had no intention of squeezing the profits of Ruit merchants to enrich the pockets of Mukuso City merchants.

He nodded and said, "I will make good use of this advantage."

Dense street trees on both sides of the street turn the street into a green channel, and many civilians enjoy the shade under the trees on the street.

After entering the civilian area, the streets looked much neater. There were many stalls on the street, and there were some snacks with a light aroma on the street. Even the thighs of the street girls here were whiter than those in the slums.



According to Surdak's plan, 10,000 infantry soldiers will be recruited from the Resistance Army Autonomous Region this time.

These infantry warriors will include 3,000 infantrymen stationed in the military camp near Bankstown, 3,000 infantrymen stationed in the military camp between the towns of Takale and Hatangada, and another 4,000 infantrymen stationed in Mukuso.

city.

Fortunately, the heavy armored infantry regiment captured a batch of weapons and equipment when they encircled Lord MacDonnell's army at Grove Ridge a few days ago. Although this time Marquis Luther escorted more than 3,000 prisoners of war to Bena City, but these

The weapons and equipment were left behind without making a sound.

In addition, there are thousands of sets of hard leather armor stored in the warehouse of the city defense brigade in Mukusuo City. These weapons and armors are just enough to equip 10,000 infantry soldiers.

Surdak has also begun to prepare for the upcoming wedding these days.

Siya has been following Suldak as a little assistant these days, helping him handle official affairs in Mukuso City.

Before leaving, Surdak summoned the mayors of various small towns in the Ganbu plane every day. These mayors came to Mukuso City hard just to report their work to Surdak. Surdak was just watching.

He quickly met with these mayors in a hurry, but he couldn't remember the names of most of them.

If you want to know more about the current situation in Ganbu Plane, the best way is to go down there and visit, but it is definitely too late now.

The shops in Mukusuo City are filled with various demon materials. It has almost become a distribution center for low-level demon materials. Among the cheap products, there are caveman front claws. This kind of front claws have been specially hardened, and then

Install an iron hoop in the blacksmith's shop and add a wooden handle to make a shovel, which is both light and sharp. It is a very good digging tool, at least better than a pickaxe.

There are also daggers made from the teeth or claws of hellhounds. Apart from not being used as meat cleavers, they are also quite sharp.

Twenty four-wheeled trucks passed through the portal of Ruit City and arrived at the lively central square of Mukuso City. This is the most prosperous area of ​​Mukuso City. Whether it is during the day or at night, people around the square are surrounded by people.

Shops are open around the clock.

Charlie and Luke, wearing gray linen shorts, jumped out of the front carriage, followed the address given by Suldak, and stared blankly at the city of Mukuso under the night sky.

They looked up at the dark red sky, full of anxiety, led 300 Wall Village craftsmen, and 20 four-wheel carriages in accordance with the instructions of the portal guard, and walked out of the central square with a complete country bumpkin attitude.
