The second heavy snowfall in the northwest has begun, with heavy snowflakes flying and a biting cold wind.
"hurry up!"
A group of people walked on the long-disappeared road, wearing thick clothes, only showing a pair of numb eyes, strong hemp rope tied around their waists, lifeless, mechanically walking forward, with snow covering their knees, the team
Time moves forward very slowly.
The long queue drew a black line in the snow-white northwest snow forest, adding a bit of color.
On both sides of the road, ferocious beasts in the forest stood in the wind and snow, looking at the long queue of two-legged beasts. If they could not find other prey, they would not attack these two-legged beasts.
"Brother, the snow is getting heavier and heavier. Do you want to find a place for these guys to take a rest?" The young man at the front of the team, wearing an animal skin and only showing a pair of bright eyes, said to the two-meter tall man in the lead.
The big man wore very little. He looked like he was wearing only a single coat. Half of his face was covered by black cloth. At his waist was a horizontal knife and a wine gourd.
The big man glanced at the people behind him with disgust: "You bunch of trash, keep walking, get there early, and rest early!"
The young man was a little embarrassed: "But if too many of them die and less than half of them are left over there, I'm afraid that you, brother, will be blamed by the boss..."
The big man patted the young man on the shoulder and said with a smile: "At most, I just want to say a few more words, no problem!"
Looking at the people behind him: "Send these wastes over early, and we can go back early!"
"Yes!" The young man lowered his head, and the big man gently patted the young man's shoulder twice and warned: "Qingyun, you have to remember that the most useless thing in the northwest is kindness. Look at these wastes now. Do you think one or two of them are pitiful?
, but if they are really pitiful, will they come to the northwest? Not everyone is like you!"
The young man looked at the snow-white ground. The northwest land was the place where Daqian sinners were exiled. Those who were expelled from Daqian were not allowed to set foot in Daqian again for the rest of their lives. Generally, they would not be driven to the northwest land unless their crimes were extremely heinous.
Or he saw a very pitiable person in his eyes. In Daqian, he was just a big thief who did all kinds of evil and was caught by the government and lost his power...
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Qingyun figured it out and nodded: "Brother, I understand!"
"That's good!" The big man walked towards the vast sea of snow, the young man followed closely behind, and the long team continued to walk forward...
Xiliang Camp
"It's snowing really hard!" Li Xiang was carrying a snow rabbit and four pheasants hanging on his spear. Everyone in the militia behind them had something to gain. Today they found a geomantic treasure.
To the north of Xiliang Camp, across a canyon under a high mountain, there is a hot spring stream. It is icy and snowy outside, but inside it is as warm as the southern seaside, and there are many prey.
They left some traps there. If you go back tomorrow, you will definitely gain something.
Li Xiang led the militiamen to hunt and obtain food, while Li Yi led the farmers to build camps.
Use the food obtained from the gnoll camp the day before yesterday to recruit forty farmers, just as assigned before, twenty farmers and twenty militiamen.
With twenty more farmers under his command, Li Yi started building the camp, and ten woodcutters kept cutting down trees to provide sufficient wood for the camp.
There are twenty-five farmers left, and five farmers are divided to farm. The remaining twenty build camps and sentry posts. In the forest near the camp, there is a sentry post every two hundred steps or so. This is to prevent ferocious beasts.
Or a sneak attack by a wolf.
Prime Minister Li did not forget the fate of the jackals. There were more than two hundred jackal corpses, and the whole group died tragically.
A two-meter-high wooden wall was also built around the camp to temporarily enclose the camp. After the camp expands, these wooden walls will be demolished and the wood can still be used.
"Sir, everything is ready!" Tie Yi, who had just successfully transferred to another job in the blacksmith shop, pulled the phoenix box hard. In the cold winter, his forehead was covered with sweat, and it was very hot in the blacksmith shop!
Li Yi took a look at the ignited blue flame: "Is this a magic fire?"
Tie Yi wiped the sweat from his head: "The flame that evolved after the blacksmith shop absorbed the Warcraft building can also be called magic fire. This kind of flame combines the flames of the imperial blacksmith shop and the Three Kingdoms blacksmith shop and can melt
All kinds of ores!”
"What weapons can be forged now?" Li Yi asked.
"Big knives, big axes, etc. can be forged. I also have forging skills for other weapons. You still need to accumulate some experience before you can forge them!"
"Then let's make ten broadswords and five axes first. If there is still more iron, we can build more broadswords. If the materials are not enough, we can use fewer axes!" Li Yi said quickly.
She used the ax to chop down the trees, and the broadsword was the weapon used by the militiamen in Li Xianghe's hands. In this dangerous snow forest, without enough force to protect, it would be useless to build more buildings.
"Yes!" Tie nodded. What was piled up in the blacksmith's warehouse was not iron ore, but various weapons obtained from the Jackal camp. Most of these iron tools could no longer be used and could only be re-cast.
"Then let's get started. I'll go check out the farmland!" Li Yi turned around and left. Tie Yi used iron pliers to grab a rusty iron tool and put it on the fire...
The blacksmith shop started working, which meant that the Xiliang camp could forge weapons by itself. The only shortcoming was that they did not have iron ore. If they had iron ore, they could make weapons on a large scale and let all the soldiers in the Xiliang camp use iron tools.
Farmland is what Li Xiang pays most attention to, and Li Yi even sent five people to change jobs and become farmers.
The location of the mill is a bit far from the center of the town, at a point very close to the stream.
Only five acres of land were cultivated for the first time, and each of the five farmers was responsible for one acre. The stream beside the mill was no longer frozen, and the water flow followed the mill. The five farmers were working in their fields.
The crops they grow are a type of crop provided by the system, which is called fertilized rice. One acre of land can produce five shi of grain (unified, one shi is one hundred kilograms). In unit terms, it is 500 units of grain. The production cycle is
In three months, if it were in a warmer place, the yield of one acre of land would definitely be higher, but the yield of five dan of this acre of land has already suppressed the yield of crops in most places in Daqian.
Not long after the snow fell from the sky, it turned into snow and melted into the ground. The five farmers carefully took care of every drop of crops.
There are no bugs in winter, and cold weather is the enemy of these crops. They need to inject some vitality into the crops.
Every farmer will receive the Jumang Sutra after changing jobs. It is a technique created by the empire system after devouring the True Three and the elves in Warcraft. It can promote plant growth, delay lifespan, and can also heal others.
