The sky was getting bright, Bai Shi led, and the village entrance of Xiaomu Village had begun to become lively. A large group of Xiaomu villagers gathered at the village head, shaking their heads and whispering to discuss something.
In front of the villagers, a small platform was set up, and several people wearing leather armor were sitting on it.
Viti, the head of Xiaomu Village, was smiling with a smile on his face. He looked at the soldier next to him and said, "Sir, almost all the villagers in the village have arrived. Do you think so?"
"I just told you, I am just the captain of the Qinghuang Knights. Don't call me Sir, just call me Harry. Now that the people are almost here, let's get started!" Harry, the Qinghuang Cavalry, sat down.
On the stage, he said to the village chief Viti.
"Yes...yes, let's start now!" Viti nodded and said.
"Everyone, be quiet! Be quiet! I called you here so early today because I have something important to inform you." Viti said loudly, raising his voice.
A group of people were a little dissatisfied with being pulled over so early. After hearing Viti's words, they became quiet and wanted to hear what important matter the village chief had.
"Look, everyone, these warriors sitting on the stage are from the Qinghuang Knights under the Baron. These warriors are here today to follow the Baron's order and come to our village to recruit soldiers to join the Qinghuang Knights.
.”
Viti pointed to Harry and others on the stage and introduced them to the villagers.
"Recruiting? Did I hear that right? It's really recruiting! It's great!" A man below said excitedly.
"Recruiting! The Baron has finally started recruiting again. I've waited too long!" A powerful young man in the crowd shouted excitedly.
He had heard that once he successfully enlisted and became a warrior of the Qinghuang Knights, the Baron would not only give him armor, weapons and horses, but he would also receive military pay every month, which was something that the Baron of the White Rock Territory had never received before.
"The Baron is recruiting troops! I must participate!"
"..."
Hearing that the soldiers on the stage came to the village to recruit soldiers for the Baron, the villagers underground were all excited and excited. The same situation was happening among other village chiefs in Musen Territory.
This recruitment was a recruitment operation ordered by Allen for the entire Musen Territory. For this purpose, Allen specially sent out the remaining three squadrons of the Qinghuang Knights in small teams and dispersed them to various villages and towns.
Conduct recruitment operations.
"Don't get excited, everyone. This time, the Baron has ordered us to come to Xiaomu Village to recruit soldiers. The rules for recruiting soldiers are written on this wooden board. Don't worry if you are illiterate. I will read them to you later.
I made something clear at the beginning. There are five places for Xiaomu Village to be recruited this time. Only those in the top five in strength can successfully join the Knights. No trouble is allowed, no fighting is allowed, and no questioning of the final result is allowed.
.Did you all hear that?" Harry suddenly shouted.
The people below were startled, and they all fell silent for a moment, not daring to speak louder. The people above were soldiers of the Qinghuang Knights. If they were offended, they would definitely have no chance of joining the Qinghuang Knights.
…………
Inside Qinghuang Castle.
"Lord Baron! If we recruit soldiers according to your request, the Musen Territory now has a total of one city, twelve towns and one hundred villages. Musen City recruits two hundred soldiers, one town recruits fifty soldiers, and one village recruits five soldiers. Then Qinghuang
The Knights will have a surge of 1,300 new recruits in a short period of time.
Will this cause problems? Although food is not a problem in the territory now, weapons and equipment are a big problem. These new recruits do not have enough weapons and equipment at all."
Andy said with some worry, although this matter is not within his jurisdiction, but now that Antonio is not in the Musen Territory, his Shadow Division is also involved in the military, so there is no problem in reminding the baron.
"Well! We do need to worry about this aspect, and we can only ask the Logistics Bureau to hurry up.
But now the territory does need to increase its military strength. The military strength of other baronies is more than twice that of our territory! Although the weapons and equipment are lacking, we can train first, and the weapons and armor will be replenished later," Allen said.
.
"By the way! Don't you often complain to me that the number of shadows in the Shadow Division is too small and not enough? This time I have taken this matter into consideration. When the recruitment is over, you can choose some from the thirteen hundred people.
Those who are talented can be classified into the Shadow Division, but not too many. We will give you a maximum of 300 places." Allen narrowed his eyes and smiled at Andy.
"Really! Thank you, Lord Baron!" Andy was excited after hearing this. He worked hard for the Shadow Division, but spy work like this is not easy to do. When the Shadow Division is recruiting people.
The first item is to have a clean net worth. One of the conditions is that three generations of ancestors have made a living in Musen Territory. In addition, the Baron has urged the Shadow Division to infiltrate the surrounding areas of the territory. Now Andy can use
There are fewer and fewer people, and the number of people secretly recruited is simply not equal to the number of people sent out. Now that the baron has asked him to select a group of people, how can Andy be unhappy.
It was already noon, and Allen was having lunch with other members of the Charles family when he received a report from Bud.
"Sir! The soldier who was in charge of feeding just now came to report that there seems to be something wrong in the sinkhole!"
Bud came over and whispered in Allen's ear.
Allen frowned, not expecting something to happen in the sinkhole. Apart from a few giant water-patterned frogs, the only thing left in the sinkhole was the crystal ore mother that Allen had buried.
Not in the mood to eat, Allen stood up and walked out of the hall, followed closely by Bud.
"Tell me! What's going on? What could be wrong with the sinkhole?" Allen was very puzzled, turned around and said to Bud.
"Sir! The soldier who fed the giant frog said that he heard a huge frog cry today, which was very different from usual. There was a violent vibration at the entrance of the pit during the feeding, and he almost lost his balance and fell. The soldier felt something was wrong, so he asked me
Reported this matter." Bud said.
Huge frog cry! Violent vibration! Allen instantly felt that this was something unusual.
"Let's go! Go to the sinkhole!" Allen said seriously.
After saying that, he ignored Bard and hurried towards the sinkhole.
"Yes!" Bud followed closely.
With the speed of the two knights, they arrived near the sinkhole in a short time.
Near the sinkhole, the three curare trees that Allen planted at the beginning were already as tall as a person. Now their toxicity is even more alarming. Then, Allen crossed the curare trees and led Bud slowly to the edge of the sinkhole.
"Quack!" A harsh frog cry exploded in Allen's ears, and the ground shook for a while. Allen was alert and stepped back instantly.
