By conquering Mara Town, the territory will gain at least a thousand people, but the population can be slowly converted, but Mara Town cannot be abandoned.
As a transfer station between the north and the south, the geographical location of Mara Town is very important. Whether it is to stay in the north or develop in the direction of the empire, Mara Town is indispensable for advancing, attacking, retreating and defending. Therefore, it must have
With capable people in charge, Owen and Maya reached a consensus on this point.
The problem is that the only people in the entire territory who are competent are Curranth and Howard, and one is more interested in business and the other is more focused on combat.
The best way is for two people to go together, which can make up for each other, but the territory also lacks talents, and there are a lot of things to do in the spring, so you can't rely on Maya alone for everything.
After hesitating for a moment, Irving thought that development was still the main focus at the moment, so Irving decided to dispatch Corens to take charge of Mara Town.
Without further ado, Irving ordered Howard to take the lead in sending troops to occupy Mara Town, and Curranth formed an immigration team to follow closely.
Howard, who knew the importance of Mara Town, did not delay at all. He mobilized all the cavalry without hesitation and set off immediately with enough dry food.
Corens was not idle either. After learning about the new appointment from Owen, his back molars were exposed.
There was no other way. He had been waiting for an opportunity all his life, and apparently he had the opportunity now.
Howard escorted thousands of people back to the territory. The journey was also not easy. Fortunately, there were no accidents. Those people did not think about escaping or resisting. In addition, the food taken from Currans was sufficient, so they were safe and sound.
Return to the territory.
Before Curranth was even halfway through, Howard had captured the town of Mara.
The nomadic cavalry is versatile and can use scimitars, throwing axes, lassoes, and short bows. They are good at long-distance attacks. Although they are not suitable for charging into formations, they are extremely excellent light cavalry.
Curranth lit the fireplace and opened the floo network, then took out the double-sided mirror and rubbed it. This was the previously set code. As expected, a female warrior wearing a tight leather jacket and carrying two swords walked out of the fireplace.
Under the inspection of elite cavalry, no one dared to disagree, even the small town residents who were reluctant to part with their wealth, because those who had the courage to resist died when the horse thieves took over the town.
Of course, this is because they know they are valuable and will not be killed, otherwise they will not surrender so easily.
It's not correct to say that they were beaten. Harvey took the heads of his eldest and second brothers and walked around the town. After learning from him that most of the horse thieves were captured, everyone fell silent. After Howard led the elite cavalry into the town,
After that, everyone became obedient people.
"Everyone, get moving, we have to rebuild the entire town before the merchants arrive!" Standing in the deserted town, Curranth shouted the slogan with great momentum, and the farmers lived up to expectations, with extremely high expectations.
Efficiency demolished the original building and began reconstruction work.
But without further delay, as there was not much time for him to be stunned, Corens mobilized a hundred infantry as an escort and headed for the town of Mara.
"I will come here once a week. If you need anything, prepare a list for me in advance and I will bring it next time."
Corensi stood on the high platform with high spirits and announced the Lord's order. After a while, all the farmers began to take action.
If the tribe wants to continue, they must find men, and to achieve this goal, surrender is their only choice.
Although he was the mayor, Corens still didn't dare to offend the other party, even if the other party was just a soldier, but the way he dressed showed that he had a deep relationship with the lord, and he couldn't afford to offend him, so he behaved very politely.
Both the nomadic tribes gathered around the town and the original residents of the town are within the scope of the migration. They will be moved to the territory for domestication. This is the order of the lord. Although Howard does not understand it, he resolutely implements it.
The person who came was a witch hunter, without a name, because after rebirth, they decided to abandon everything in the past, including their names. Now they are sharp blades in the hands of their master, so they are replaced by numbers, and she is number six.
Taking out the pocket where the space expansion spell was cast, and casting the spell to transfer the contents inside, No. 6 said to Corens expressionlessly.
Although they are farmers, it does not mean that they cannot fight, because Owen lets the farmers in the territory take turns to enter the barracks for training, but they have not changed their jobs, but this does not prevent them from taking up arms to fight.
With the appointment signed by the lord, Corens rang the bronze bell in the town center. The peasants who were staying at home in winter picked up their weapons and walked out regardless of the cold wind outside. They gathered like a tide in front of the town center.
on the square.
After seeing off the people and looking at the large pile of materials in front of him, Corens became more confident about the subsequent reconstruction project. He immediately became busy without taking a break.
Corens was stunned. He knew that the farmers in the territory were not only strong in work ability, but also obedient, but he never knew that they were so strong.
After Howard returned, Owen had to stay in the center of the town and start the transformation as soon as the progress value was restored. After all, the thousands of new people were a destabilizing factor, especially the horse thieves captured by Xiao Erbai, who were all on the upper level.
Good sources of troops cannot be wasted.
After Curranth arrived, Howard seconded fifty of his infantrymen to escort everyone back to the territory. These were all precious people.
This time there was a lot of harvest, because Owen didn't expect that many residents of the nomadic tribes and Mara Town could be converted into civilians. This was a good thing for the territory that was in urgent need of civilians, and not only could the herders be faster and better
Transformed into cavalry, they can also be trained into a special type of cavalry, nomadic cavalry.
The three hundred farmers closest to Curens went home and brought dry food and clothing. The other farmers hitched up their carriages and began to carry grain, tools and materials to the vehicles. When they were almost ready, the three hundred farmers also arrived carrying packages.
Beside the carriage, waiting for Collens.
Corens nodded quickly, and then he was relieved after sending the person away with kind words, because he could instinctively feel that something was wrong with the other person, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He always felt that it was better not to offend the other person, so he ignored his identity.
Lower your stance.
Of course, the diversity also gives the nomadic cavalry many shortcomings. For example, the charge is not as good as the lancers, the mounted shooting is not as good as the archers, and the defense is not as good as the cuirass. However, when several types of cavalry are combined with each other, they will undoubtedly become extremely powerful.
Cavalry team.
Owen was focused on guarding his one-third acre of land and did not pay much attention to the cavalry. Now that the strength of the territory has greatly increased, it is time to expand his influence. As a fist that shows strength, the cavalry will undoubtedly be the focus of future development, so
The emergence of nomadic cavalry is the icing on the cake.
The meat is in your mouth. As long as you eat it, your power will increase greatly. No matter how lazy Owen is, he must work hard and try to digest it in a short time so that he can better cope with the ever-increasing changes.
Measured conditions in Northland.
After all, the territory has been so lively in winter this year, and places close to the empire's borders will only be more lively.
Owen is not talking nonsense. The Northland Witch Alliance, which has been reorganized by Maya, has rebuilt the intelligence network. A lot of intelligence is sent every day, allowing him to grasp the changes in the empire's borders in a timely manner. Therefore, he is very clear about what will happen in the future.
It will become more and more serious. If he can't become stronger as soon as possible, he will have no chance of living a leisurely noble life.
