The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Chapter 44 Two months later



In the battle that night, five people were killed and twelve were injured in Nisai Xiaocun. Most of the dead and injured were members of the guards.

William gave the family generous pensions, and his coffers lost hundreds of piskins.

As for the wild people, eighteen people died on the spot and thirty-four were injured.

Later, another 26 people were seriously injured and died without good medical treatment!

But still one hundred and twelve people survived.

The leaders of the two savage villages, Dunn and Barrett, also survived.

On the second day after the wildlings attacked, William led two-thirds of the guards, led by Dunn, Barrett and some other wildlings, to raid their stockade!

Without too much effort, William and the others attacked the two wild strongholds hidden in the Cordillera Mountains and captured a large number of wild people.

There are more than two hundred people!

If you add the first hundred or so wild people, then there are more than three hundred wild people in these two villages.

Most of the wild people in the wild village are women and children, and there are very few young and middle-aged men, because most of the young and middle-aged men followed their respective leaders to attack the small village of Nisai!

No old or weak!

But also, the environment in the mountains is harsh, and the land that can be planted is scarce.

Under such conditions, survival of the fittest, natural selection, how can the old and the weak survive?

There is no old or weak is good news for William!

These more than five hundred wild people are even more happy for William!

They were treated as slaves and driven away by the villagers of Nisai Village, who were promoted to overseers, to complete their previous work.

The efficiency of various projects in Nisai Village has increased by leaps and bounds.

Bricks piled up like a mountain, and lime plaster piled up.

The trees around the village are also disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only round stumps, leaving a large area of ​​land.

Just wait for the next year to set fire to it, and it will be a piece of good land again.

For these slaves, William only needs to pay for three meals. Slaves have no human rights, and naturally they do not need to pay salaries.

Dig some simple shacks outside the village, stuff them in at night, and send guards to supervise them. '

The most important thing is that the death of the wild folk gave William's magic mirror enough soul energy, and the sustaining time was extended to one month and three days.

This simply makes William want to stop!

After more than 20 days of the wild people's attack, William finally couldn't bear to take the initiative to launch an attack on the wild people in the Cordillera Mountains.

Tang En and Barrett, the two rebellious guys among the wild people, led the way. The magic mirror probed the terrain for William. More than 30 guards carried hundreds of wild people forward, like magic soldiers descending from heaven, and attacked several wild villages. The attack was launched.

The attack is overwhelming!

The natural barrier of the wild village was easily broken by William, followed by the guards and the wild people who were entrapped. It didn't take long for the wild village to be captured and the wild people became William's captives.

After pulling out four wild villages in a row and capturing nearly a thousand wild slaves, William had no choice but to give up and stop continuing to attack.

Firstly, all the wild villages that were easier to attack had been wiped out by William, and the remaining wild villages were either overcrowded, occupying natural dangers and difficult to attack, or hidden deep in the Cordillera Mountains, with a long way to go.

Secondly, the ratio of villagers under William to wildling slaves has become 1:4, that is to say, one villager has to manage four wildlings on average.

In fact, some villagers don't care about people at all, and some villagers manage seven or eight wild people, or even more.

Either way, it's a dangerous stat.

So William gave up attacking the wild folk in the Cordillera and turned to digesting

William had to expand the members of the guard again, and absorbed another forty-two villagers in the village.

Of course, the quality of this group of villagers is not as good as the previous two groups of team members, so it can only be said that nothing is better than nothing.

Using the detection function of the magic mirror, 50 relatively honest, healthy, young and strong wild men were selected from among the captives as servants of the guards, and handed over to the official guards for management and included in the training system of the guards. middle.

As servants, their treatment is far inferior to that of members of the official guards. As members of the formal guards, they have a salary of 75 copper coins per month, and the captain is even raised to a gold pith, but the servants There are no soldiers, and even the three meals are not as good as the guards.

Although the food and accommodation of the servant soldiers are much better than those of other wild people.

However, William had promised them that as long as they were loyal and made contributions, they would have the opportunity to be promoted to full-time players and receive the same treatment as full-time players.

Naturally, these servants were very excited and desperately trained and accepted William's brainwashing. Although the regular team members were quite critical, William had the prestige of breaking the wild village and the status of the lord, and the regular team members had no choice but to accept it. .

The expansion of the guards has brought about various problems.

First of all, there is the problem of uniforms. There are still some linen fabrics, but they are obviously not enough, so I have to buy more!

Second is the issue of weapons, which is also a big gap.

We can't let the guards fight the coming lizardmen with sticks.

This is not blood, this is desperate!

There is no way to solve these problems in Nisai Village, so the method of purchasing is once again on the agenda.

William directly handed over to Old John and Old Gretel to solve the problem.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ...

Two months later, in front of Nisai Village!

Hughes, an honest little businessman in the city of Patras, had amazement in his eyes, and said to Old John in front of him, I really should let the masters in the city come and see, and they will know what they missed!

Hughes, a businessman with a face as thin as a skeleton but a bulging belly, looked past Old John and looked at the ever-changing village.

The last time he took a family of bankrupt stonemasons and sold it to Nisai Village for 20 Pis gold coins, the changes in Nisai Village were not so great.

At that time, the village was still surrounded by wooden fences, just like a piece of paper, as if it would burst if it was poked lightly.

In the fields outside the village, earth kilns were standing one after another emitting black smoke. I don't know what they were burning!

Wild folk slaves coming and going pushed that fancy wheelbarrow, carrying dirt and stones.

But what's the use?

Lizard people are not a village that can be defeated with these simple things!

If it's really that simple, the Gloomy Forest and the Shadow Swamp have been conquered long ago, so why wait until today?

At that time, the honest Hughes only thought they were a joke!

Of course, this will not affect the business between Hughes and Baron William. On the contrary, from the perspective of the baron, Hughes also put forward many valuable suggestions, thus pulling out more gold coins from Baron William's treasury .

No way, Tasius is such a bad guy, an honest businessman! Hughes thought so.

However, in less than a month, the small village of Nisai turned into a white swan like an ugly duckling.

The speed of change was too fast, and the appearance after the change was too drastic, so Hughes couldn't accept it all at once.

The original wooden fence was demolished.

Instead, there is a high wall of bricks stacked one after the other, with some gray stuff glued between the bricks.

When Hughes walked by just now, he deliberately pushed hard with his hands.

The high walls remained motionless.

This high wall was not built on the original site of the wooden fence, but on the edge of the forest, wrapping the cleared woodland at the end of the village, the fields on both sides of the village, and the shacks of wild slaves, forming a square. the fence.

This can be called a new Nisai village!

Or it can no longer be described as a village, but a small town!

Nice town?

Originally, the distance between the beginning and the end of the village was only a few hundred meters, but the new Nisai town was more than one kilometer from the beginning to the end, and also more than one kilometer from side to side, with an area a hundred times the size of the original village.

In this small town of Nisai, which is ten times the size, the houses are still the same as before. Brick kilns, shacks, and other messy things are wrapped inside, so it looks very empty and messy.

But these are only temporary!

The most important thing is to have a wall!

With a wall three meters high!

With the wall, there is a sense of security and the world, and this is the key!

Normally, such a wall would take a year or even longer to build, consuming a lot of manpower, money, and material resources.

As far as Hughes knew, it took a year and three months for the city wall of Patras to be built by the previous Baron Grian!

But what about the wall in Nise?

How long did it take?

Hughes moved his head, which was about to become a paste, and thought about it, less than a month?

It was terrible!

Although this kind of wall built with bricks doesn't look as strong as the city of Patras built with stones, it has to be built too fast!

And the small town of Nisai is still built with double-sided walls!

One meter behind the first brick wall, another identical brick wall was built.

In the middle of the two brick walls, savage slaves kept pushing wheelbarrows, transporting mud and dumping it into the space inside.

Another savage slave, standing on the soil in the middle space, used a piece of wood to tamp the soil!

Even if the defensive power of the double-sided wall built in this way is still not as good as the stone wall in Patras, it will not be much worse!

The problem is, people build fast!

The speed is too fast!

For a while, Hughes had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he became very interested in this construction method.
