After receiving the dwarf Olin, Tang Jing discussed with Tu Hong the placement of sword and shield soldiers.
"If we want to live here, we can only suffer a little today and crowd into the shelter yard. Three residential buildings will be completed tomorrow, and we can arrange to live in residential buildings by then."
"Your Excellency is thoughtful."
Tu Hong first praised and then reminded: "In the long run, it is best for the soldiers to concentrate in the barracks."
"Of course!"
Tang Jing nodded, "Living in civilian housing is just a temporary measure."
If you want a regular barracks, you must either obtain the barracks architectural drawings or arrange for craftsmen to build it. No matter which one, the territory currently does not have it.
I can only make do with it.
Anyway, almost all the people in the territory are now soldiers, so it doesn't matter whether they live in civilian houses or not.
As for eating.
Residents have their own stoves, and some of the sword and shield soldiers who have changed professions can cook, so they can work part-time as cooks.
There is no shortage of food at the moment.
"In terms of organization, all the soldiers in the territory are unified into a hundred-man team, with you as the team leader. There are four ten-man squads under it, and you will appoint the leader." Tang Jing said.
"promise!"
Tu Hong happily accepted the order.
Tang Jing could just ignore all the other miscellaneous things that followed and just concentrate on waiting for dinner.
There is a cook.
In the evening, Tang Jing finally had hot rice, which was not easy either.
Paradoxically, in the evening, Pei Ye sent another rabbit.
"Rabbit hunter? Or remind me, don't forget that I am also a rabbit?" Tang Jing was confused.
With his current popularity in Zunlong Kingdom, especially when he held such a big lottery in the afternoon, Pei Ye should know that he is not short of this rabbit.
"Or are you just paying for the glory of the national war? Be careful!"
Pei Ye didn't say anything, and Tang Jing didn't ask.
When it was time to go to bed, Tu Hong reported another incident, "Sir, when we were carrying supplies in the afternoon, we found wild wolves following us along the way. I just patrolled the edge of the territory and found traces of wild wolves."
"You mean, we are being targeted by jackals again?" Tang Jing frowned.
"Very possible."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Let's step up patrols."
Regarding the wilderness, Tang Jing basically had a blank look and could only stop in silence.
………
"The construction of residential buildings is completed, and the territory experience value +25 points."
The next morning, Tang Jing was woken up by the system prompt again, and it rang three times in a row.
It represents that the first batch of three residential buildings have been completed.
After arranging the construction of the second batch of residential houses, Tang Jing walked out of the house. The yard was extremely quiet, with only the faint sound of shouting coming from outside the front yard.
But it was Tu Hong who was leading the soldiers out for morning exercises.
After breakfast, Tang Jing and Tu Hong discussed today's action arrangements.
"I was chatting with the dwarf Olin yesterday and told me that there was a goblin camp in the forest, and my subordinates planned to take people to destroy it today. Do you want to go together?" Tu Hong asked for instructions.
"Can."
Tang Jingle had to gain some experience so that he could upgrade the Forbidden Mage to level 11 as soon as possible.
While they were chatting, a sword and shield soldier suddenly stumbled into the small courtyard. His armor was broken and his body was covered with paint. He looked quite embarrassed and said, "Sir, my lord, it's not good!"
"What's going on?"
Tang Jing stood up suddenly and recognized that this was one of the two sword and shield soldiers who stayed at the Jackal camp.
He raised his hand and gave the Sword and Shield Soldier a blessing.
"Thank you, sir!"
After being blessed, the sword and shield soldiers immediately cheered up and reported: "In the early morning, a group of jackals suddenly surrounded the temporary camp."
"It's the jackals again, how many are there?"
Tang Jing did not expect that something would happen in the temporary camp just one day later.
"No less than a hundred."
"With so many jackals, how did you get out of trouble and come here to report the news?" Tang Jing frowned.
"After the jackals surrounded the camp, they did not attack, and they did not even try to prevent their subordinates from breaking out. It seemed that they just asked their subordinates to report the news."
"Is this so..."
Tang Jing looked solemn and glanced at Tu Hong in surprise. The latter was also surprised.
Last night's worries came true.
"Sir, look at what this means. The jackals are besieging rather than attacking. They are waiting for us to reinforce them so that we can catch them all." Tu Hong gained a new understanding of the cunning of the jackals.
Come to think of it, if it weren't for the protective cover of the territory, the jackals would have directly attacked the base camp.
"We've stung a hornet's nest."
After being surprised, Tang Jing quickly regained his composure and realized that the wilderness where his territory was located should mainly be the activity range of jackals.
No wonder the dwarf Orin was captured.
"Sir, let me lead a team to rescue you."
Tu Hong was a little anxious, obviously worried about Tu Gang's safety, and even more worried about the lord abandoning his son.
"It must be saved."
Tang Jing first gave Tu Hong a reassurance.
The establishment of a territory is the time to unite people's hearts, especially to rely on Chiyou warriors. Of course Tang Jing would not be stupid enough to easily chill Tu Hong's heart.
"The question now is how to rescue us. Looking at the layout of the jackals, it is obvious that they have figured out our details. Can we win against more than a hundred jackals?"
"this…"
No matter how confident Tu Hong was, he would not dare to judge.
In yesterday's battle, the three brothers plus nine sword and shield soldiers faced more than twenty jackals. If the lord had not been there, casualties would have been inevitable.
The situation we are facing now is obviously more dangerous than yesterday.
"Let's do this." Tang Jing quickly came up with a plan, "You lead the team and set off first. I will stay in the camp and find a way to recruit a group of sword and shield soldiers, and then rush to reinforce."
Aren't the jackals going to surround the place for reinforcements?
Then Tang Jing attacked from both sides.
No matter how cunning the jackals were, and they arranged for wild wolves to investigate the situation in the territory last night, they would never have imagined that a foreign lord like Tang Jing would "change into a living person".
Information asymmetry is the way to win.
"promise!"
Tu Hong was well aware of the lord's magical power, so he rushed to assemble his troops without any further hesitation.
And what about Tang Jing?
I can only turn to the all-powerful circle of friends for help.
The problem is that he no longer has a level 1 crystal core in his hand, but he does have a level 2 crystal core.
But obviously.
Not many people would gamble with refugees for a crystal core that is temporarily unused.
"We can only rely on our credibility."
The situation was urgent and Tang Jing couldn't allow him to think too much, so he immediately posted it on WeChat Moments.
"Recruit 10 friends for a lottery, ticket: 1 refugee, prize: 500 units of wood + 500 units of stone + 1 level 1 crystal core. Get on the bus as soon as possible, first come, first served, until full!"
"Tip: The prizes will not be distributed immediately, but they are guaranteed to be delivered within today. Please agree to get on the bus."
As soon as I posted it, I received a lot of replies.
"Boss Tang Jing, are you going to have sex for free? (Dog Head)"
"I still believe in Boss Tang's credibility, count me in!"
"Sign up +1!"
"I also believe that Mr. Tang will not destroy his credibility for the sake of a few refugees."
It can be seen that Tang Jing's credibility in the circle of Lords of Zunlong Kingdom is still very strong, at least so far. In half an hour, he received more than a hundred emails addressed to the refugees.
The more trusted Tang Jing was, the less he dared to be reckless.
Only the top fifty were selected, five draws were held, and then they were given up.
If you are unlucky today and fail to obtain enough Level 1 crystal cores during the fierce battle with the Jackals and cannot pay them out on time, that would be embarrassing.
It's better to be more stable.
The addition of fifty sword and shield soldiers is enough to deal with this jackal crisis.
Furthermore, there are only 100 transfer places in the Sword and Shield Soldier training hut. Thirty-nine people were transferred yesterday, leaving only 61 transfer places in total.
It has basically reached its limit.
………
After completing the job transfer, Tang Jing stopped staying and set out with fifty sword and shield soldiers to rush for reinforcements.
The journey was uneventful.
Tang Jing didn't even see the wild wolves everywhere.
In this case, either the jackals think that their territory has been conquered and they no longer need to arrange wild wolf surveillance, but choose to concentrate their efforts on annihilating the Tu Hong tribe.
Or, during Tu Hong's march, the wild wolves were cleared away to prevent "eyes" from being left behind.
Tang Jing is more convinced that it is the former type.
Tu Hong was in a hurry to rescue Tu Gang and shouldn't waste time on the way. Wild wolves are very cunning and will be difficult to kill as long as they are watched from a distance.
It can be seen that the jackals are really confident after having the numerical advantage.
This was quite convenient for Tang Jing and his party.
A smooth journey.
However, just as he was about to walk halfway through a small forest, he heard a loud shout from a distance.
"not good!"
Tang Jing's expression suddenly changed, realizing that the situation had changed.
Without thinking, he immediately led his troops into the forest. Not far away, he saw more than a hundred jackals, leading a pack of more than a hundred wolves, surrounding Tu Hong and his party.
The two sides fought fiercely, and some soldiers with swords and shields had already fallen, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive.
