Chapter 636: Counting completed, population surges [5K]
A viable territory can achieve self-development.
Even if Zong Shen is not present, as long as the organizational structure in the territory is normal.
The territory can still maintain a steady development rate.
For Zong Shen, the territory is like his child.
When the child is young, he must always be with him and he must be supplemented with nutrients.
When the child grows up, he can go out freely.
This endless continent is so vast that being trapped in one corner is not a long-term solution.
If the goal of the most powerful lord is to conquer the entire continent.
Then he already had expectations in his heart.
After it takes shape, he is ready to go out for a while.
It could be a few months or even a year or two.
As long as the development of the territory is on the right track, Zong Shen can go out with peace of mind.
Make some preparations in advance for the future struggle for continental hegemony!
However, he is still unable to determine the specific time. He may have to wait until the second act begins before he can implement his mainland adventure plan!
After sighing for a while, Zong Shen turned to the next page.
Continuing down, he saw the population category.
The population taken back from those unclaimed territories took up two pages.
The records on the first page are all warriors of all levels and types!
The total number reached 3329!
This is close to the number of three brigades!
But divide these warriors equally among the unclaimed territories he receives.
On average, only a dozen warriors were brought back from each territory.
After all, the lords who went to the Poison Swamp had already taken away a group of accompanying warriors from their territory.
Even the soldiers they took away were the real elite fighting force in the territory.
The soldiers who stayed in the territory were only responsible for looking after the houses and protecting the farmers.
Thinking about it this way, the killing evil in Xiao Heizi's hands is really too heavy.
In the battle in the Poisonous Mist Swamp, countless third- and fourth-level warriors died in its hands!
But to Zong Shen, the remaining warriors will be valuable population wealth regardless of their level, even low-level warriors. Anyway, the territory currently does not lack high-level combat power.
When the war actually breaks out, it's king against king, soldier against soldier.
Low-level warriors can be assembled according to rank and unit type to form squads and squadrons to fight, thus exerting stronger combat effectiveness.
Zong Shen glanced at the records on the page. This time, the largest number was still the wolf cavalry and those first- and second-level self-trained soldiers.
The specific types and quantities are as follows:
[Level 2 Wolf Cavalry x1321], [Level 1 Self-trained Infantry x377]
Disabled warriors: 209, most of them are close combat soldiers, with a small number of long-range warriors and magicians. Basically all of them have broken limbs and are unable to move independently or take care of themselves.
This time, the total number of warriors reached more than 3,000, including some third- and fourth-level warriors.
There are also many units from nearby kingdoms, such as Salander, Nord, and Swadia.
Lords still have the opportunity to obtain other kingdom's troops in peacetime.
The largest number is still the wolf cavalry, a special unit.
Next are Avalon’s own arms and self-trained warriors from the whiteboard.
With the addition of this group of warriors, Colby's Wolf Rider Commander is truly worthy of its name.
These wolf cavalry, plus the two or three hundred wolf cavalry originally in the territory, can almost form a wolf cavalry formation of one brigade and two squadrons.
Other warriors need further classification and formation.
Especially those territories that have never had new soldiers before.
You can first match them with other existing units.
There is no rush for specific matters, after all, the inventory work has been completed.
In the past few days, he can slowly solve the problem of integrating new and old warriors.
What gave him more trouble was the disabled soldiers.
The number of people reached 209.
All of them are limbs and disabilities left in the battle.
Not only is it impossible to fight, but it is also difficult to take care of oneself.
For ordinary lords, it was commonplace for soldiers to be injured and killed in battle.
Zong Shen took over more than 300 unclaimed territories and only brought back 209 disabled warriors.
More disabled warriors may have been ruthlessly abandoned by the original lords.
The remaining disabled warriors are the old warriors who were left behind by the lords because of their soft hearts.
After gathering together, there were more than two hundred people.
For Zong Shen, this is also a big burden.
If simply taking care of food is not a big problem, he can support these disabled soldiers out of humanitarianism.
But they can't even take care of themselves, and they have to arrange for help to take care of them.
When a war enters the attrition stalemate stage, the purpose of the battle will change from destruction to wounding, and one wounded person requires three logistics personnel to support it.
So these disabled soldiers became a problem.
Zong Shen doesn't have a good solution yet.
We can’t drive them all away and let them fend for themselves!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After becoming a territory, he has never lacked killing power in his hands.
When faced with an enemy, he can mercilessly slaughter an entire territory.
But this time the situation was different. Asking him to voluntarily abandon these 209 disabled soldiers, he really couldn't do it.
"Difficult!"
"We can only arrange for manpower to take care of it first."
"There is a long way to go, and there will always be a way to solve this problem."
Zong Shen sighed in distress.
Dismemberment injuries, unlike other injuries, can be healed as health points are restored.
After being injured by a severed limb, the limb will detach.
Except for a few healing potions with special effects and special ethnic groups, it is difficult to recover from severed limb injuries.
Not to mention recovering so many disabled warriors at once.
"Maril, what are you going to do with those disabled soldiers?"
Zong Shen raised his head and looked at Mariel in front of him.
While everyone was here, he was going to work out a preliminary solution.
How to enable these 209 disabled warriors to find their own value in the development of the territory.
This problem seemed to be within Mariel's expectation.
She pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
"Sir, I think the situation of those disabled soldiers is different."
"The most serious one lost both hands and feet."
"In better cases, it's basically a broken leg or a hand."
"This is the majority of cases."
"There are only 12 people with severe disabilities who have more than two limbs missing from their bodies."
"By creating some simple auxiliary tools, you can still take care of yourself."
Mariel's words opened up Zong Shen's thinking.
He can ask the dwarf uncle and Ironhand Barenc to create a batch of prosthetic limbs for those disabled warriors who are in better condition, so that they can initially take care of themselves.
After all, there are only twelve people with severe disabilities.
They can even take care of and help each other.
Currently, he has two tavern blueprints in his hand, and he can let them work in the tavern when the time comes.
Although these warriors are disabled, their attributes are still there.
In terms of strength and physical fitness alone, he is much stronger than the average farmer.
After the prosthesis is installed, it is enough to complete some less complicated tasks.
For example, the waiters who carry drinks and food, clean the pub, and serve drinks are still competent.
In addition, Zong Shen also thought of the magic puppet technology.
That is the result of the combination of magic energy technology and rune forging technology.
If a prosthetic limb is made using similar magic puppet technology, it can be used like an arm.
The use of magic runes to join allows the prosthetic limbs to be controlled by thought links.
This solution is very feasible, because high-level magic puppets can use thought links to issue instructions, but the cost is not low, and the magic prostheses also need to consume magic energy to use.
Specifically, the plan needs to be conveyed to the dwarf uncle and the goblin engineer before it can be finalized.
"I understand what you mean."
"This matter must be left to the dwarf uncle to figure out a solution."
"By the way, why didn't Gugat come with you?"
Zong Shen's originally frowned brows finally relaxed.
He suddenly remembered something and asked everyone.
The person who answered him was the heroic Luna.
She took a step forward riding the sentinel panther, looking particularly beautiful in the moonlight.
"Gugat was originally assisting us in counting people in the living area."
"However, more than two hours ago, Iron Hand Barenke suddenly picked it up in the Earthshaker chariot. He also said that it was your order and asked Gugat to cooperate with it in researching the Iron-Blooded Armor."
Hearing what Luna said, Zong Shen frowned at first, then seemed to think of something, with a helpless expression on his face, and shook his head gently.
"Tiezi is really not a fuel-efficient goblin!"
"At that time, I said that after it had results, we would study the Iron-Blooded Armor."
"Now the Evil Eye Gatling plan has not been completed yet, and it is impatient to go find Gurgat on its own initiative."
"Forget it, since Gugat has all been killed, I don't think it's a big problem, so just let it go!"
Zong Shen pouted, lowered his head again, and checked the simple notebook in his hand.
After the soldiers were counted, it was time to go to the farmers.
Farmers are simply classified twice according to their qualifications and gender.
There are more farmers than warriors.
Reached the terrifying 6217th place!
On average, the number of farmers Zong Shen brought back from each unclaimed territory was more than fifteen.
Because farmers were not suitable to accompany them on expeditions, most of the farmers with unclaimed lands had to remain.
Among these farmers, there are a total of 3,496 male farmers.
Among them, 1972 have dull qualifications, 1024 have ordinary qualifications, 371 have excellent qualifications, 97 have excellent qualifications, and 32 have rare qualifications.
There are 2,721 female farm wives in total.
Among them, 1,412 have dull qualifications, 929 have ordinary qualifications, and 311 have excellent qualifications. 57 have excellent qualifications, and 12 have rare qualifications.
The ratio of men to women is as unbalanced as ever, but it is better than last time.
At this point, the total population of the territory jumped to over 10,000!
It can be regarded as a huge leap in population growth!
The origins of this group of farmers are extremely complicated.
There are both villagers from nearby villages and small traveling traders.
There are also some refugees who wandered here from the neighboring city of Seakabang.
The population acquisition methods of other lords are originally quite confusing.
There may be some hidden technical talents among these farmers and women.
Due to limited time today, it is just a preliminary screening.
In the next few days, the second and third screenings will be carried out one after another.
Screen out the original handicraft or technical talents for secondary training.
Farmers with rare qualifications will also be included in the talent training plan.
In short, this population replenishment has directly raised the territory's population level to a large level.
It has achieved a great leap from a population of a few thousand to a population of more than 10,000.
Population growth also brings many problems.
These need to be resolved in the next few days.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The new population is larger than the original population. If there is no good planning, it can easily cause chaos.
As long as this population is completely digested, Zong Shen's territory will have the foundation of a state.
After the reform of free people is carried out, every territorial citizen can become a part of promoting the development of the territory, just like the cells in the body, accompanying the growth of the territory!
There was so much new population added overnight, which is why Zong Shen was worried that the territory's rulers would not be able to keep up.
After checking the number of warriors and farmers, we finally reached the heroic level.
A total of 149 heroic talents were brought back this time, and the number was less than Zong Shen expected!
Among them, there are 37 heroic talents with whiteboard qualifications, 59 heroic talents with excellent qualifications, 41 heroic talents with excellent qualifications, and 12 heroic talents with rare qualifications.
Among these 149 heroes, the vast majority of talents are domestic heroes who are biased towards logistics, internal affairs, commerce, and farming.
There are only 9 heroes with combat-oriented talents.
The command values of these heroes vary.
As few as ten points, as many as sixty or seventy points.
All in all, there are almost less than 7,000 points of available control points.
It is simply unable to meet the control needs of this population.
Those warriors alone, including those disabled warriors, require 3811 control points!
Next are 6217 farmers, which is equivalent to 6217 points of control points.
In total, 10028 points of control points are needed to fully meet the control requirements!
Fortunately, the territory's original heroic talents, including Zong Shen, still have a certain amount of command points left.
Plus the new addition of Joan of Arc this afternoon.
Finally, the control needs of the entire population have been met!
If it weren't for the lucky bag opening this afternoon and the [Orleans Girl Different Dimension Recruitment Contract], then today's command point gap would be much worse!
Next, Zong Shen will have to promote more heroic talents.
Most of these newly added heroes are from the internal affairs department, and Mariel and Howie will have to choose a few bright minds to focus on training.
The levels of these heroes are not high, and they still have great potential for development.
As long as some time passes, the command value can be improved a lot.
Currently, what is in short supply is combat heroes.
After the internal affairs heroes are replenished, there will be hundreds of them every minute.
Enough to establish a rudimentary city hall as an administrative system.
He planned to take care of this matter tomorrow.
As for the nine combat heroes, they will be added to the combat team.
In addition, Zong Shen still has the remaining [Hero Emblem] and a large number of souls in his hands, and can continue to promote some veteran warriors.
After his command points are sufficient, he must first free up his own and Joan's command points to control the warriors.
Especially Joan of Arc, her skills and corresponding talents make her suitable for commanding a team of spearmen.
At this point, all the harvests from the hundreds of unclaimed territories have been inspected.
Zong Shen closed Mariel's homemade notebook and handed it back to her.
From a data perspective alone, as long as this wave of harvest is consumed, the next development goal of the territory is to build it into a state city!
Mariel put away her notebook, bowed slightly and stepped back.
At this time, Favid took a few steps forward, holding the [Soul Extraction Bottle (orange)] in his hand, and came to Zong Shen to bow and salute.
"Sir, we extracted a total of [Complete Purple Soul x57] and [Complete Orange Soul x11] yesterday."
Favid took out all these souls and gave them to Zong Shen.
Zong Shen waved his hand, and now he had enough souls on hand.
The next [Hero Crest] can be used to upgrade the hero.
At that time, the souls can be used to upgrade those quasi-new heroes to legendary qualifications.
From this point of view, it’s really not that the sooner you become a hero, the better.
Zong Shen put away all those souls and the [Extraction Bottle].
With his backhand, he took out the [Lightweight Fire Mage Half Helmet (Purple)] and [Scorching Fire Segment Staff (Purple)] that were taken from the treasure chest in the afternoon and gave them to Favid.
The half-helmet is used as head protection, and the short staff is used as a secondary weapon for Favidd to dual-wield.
This scene made Doris behind her look a little jealous.
After all, Favid is the Lord’s biological son!
Doris bit her lip, feeling unhappy.
Fortunately, after this period of getting along, her loyalty has long been fulfilled.
I also have a deep sense of identity with my territory.
She is also a fire mage, but because of her talent, she initially looked down on Farvid.
However, under Zong Shen's training, Favid's qualifications and levels improved rapidly.
Zong Shen tilted his head and smiled at Doris.
He could understand Doris's emotions at this time.
When he prioritized promoting Doris, Colby and Farvid had similar sentiments.
In fact, we stand from the perspective of the lord and look at the problem from a comprehensive perspective.
The sooner you promote someone, it may not necessarily be a good thing.
