King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 17 Charles' Vision

"Comfortable, this is what life should be like, it's really uncomfortable not to take a bath."

After taking a hot bath, Charles changed into silk pajamas, and walked slowly to the long wooden table. The table was full of food, such as roast leg of lamb, stewed lamb with mushrooms, grilled lamb's feet, and a bowl of mixed food. Haggis soup with various offal, and a plate of pure wheat bread.

Although it is not as good as the white bread of other nobles, it is also much better than the black bread mixed with bran.

Charles was the only one on the two-meter-long wooden table, with Old Mark standing beside him.

This way of showing the dignity of the nobility, when Charles did not win and did not show his ability, he was not stupid enough to challenge this rule and show his approachability.

But now that he has won a brilliant victory, he no longer needs this way to show his dignity and specialness. He should now be the master of Cold Winter Fortress.

Charles put down the tableware and said, "Old Mark, you can also dine with me. You are an old man of the Noxus family, and your loyalty deserves such a reward."

Old Mark shook his head and replied: "Master, I am used to this. If you really care about my loyalty, you can find a woman to reproduce for the Noxus family. I heard that you returned to Winter Fortress I met a very beautiful woman before, but I didn't expect you to..."

Unexpectedly, the world will be forced to marry, Charles said helplessly: "That woman is pregnant and was sent by the Silver Fox family, do you want me to find this kind of woman to continue the Noxus family's offspring? "

Old Mark replied seriously: "Master, you are lying, that woman is not pregnant, I asked Andre myself."

Charles was suffocated, but he didn't expect the old Mark to be so serious: "Shut up, I won't talk about these bad things until I finish eating."

Old Mark stopped talking and stood aside, looking a little aggrieved.

Charles held a leg of lamb and gnawed it deliciously. Since he condensed his fighting spirit, he became a veritable food bucket. A sheep, a pile of wheat bread, and a bowl of haggis soup were all inhaled by the storm of Charles.

After breakfast, Charles returned to the study and asked his servant to call Abudkad over.

"Do you have any orders?" Abdekad, who was resting at home all night, kept smiling, which seemed very inconsistent with the centipede-like horizontal scar on his face.

This shy look and his henpecked personality made Charles very speechless.

Every time Shire teased him, Abdekad said, Master Shire, didn't you call this respect.

Abdkad's wife is from Winter Fortress, and she can't be said to be very beautiful, but Abdkad, who was born as a robber, cherishes the stable life now, because he has been going out all the year round, and he has a feeling of guilt towards his wife and son.

After the two chatted, Charles started talking about the business: "Don't delay the rewards for the Noxus soldiers, but implement them as soon as possible. If the rewards are not in their hands, they will not feel at ease for a day.

Those warriors who beheaded the tauren should not only be rewarded with breathing techniques, but also be rewarded with cattle and sheep according to the number of enemies killed, which is calculated according to the standard of one tauren and one sheep. "

Abudkad nodded, and then asked: "Lord Baron, what about those wounded soldiers? Some of them are physically disabled and cannot go to the battlefield. Do you still need to teach breathing techniques? Do you still want to give them cattle and sheep?"

Charles did not answer immediately, but instead asked: "How does the Silver Fox family deal with these wounded soldiers?"

When Abudkad was a robber before, he encountered convoys from various families. He thought for a while and replied:
"The soldiers of the Silver Fox family are divided into two types. One is the soldiers who are loyal to the Silver Fox family. They do not need to pay food, and the Baron Silver Fox will reward them with some food. They need military training. Allegiance, these soldiers are the backbone of the Silver Fox family.

There are also some soldiers who are serf soldiers. Every year during the war, a group of serfs are directly recruited from various villages, trained for a few days, and used as cannon fodder on the battlefield.

If a soldier is injured and has to leave the army, the Silver Fox family will not only not compensate, but will cancel their previous preferential treatment. "

Charles nodded. This is similar to what he understood. According to the spirit of the contract, it is understandable for the Silver Fox family to do so. When you work for the Silver Fox family, the Silver Fox family will give you preferential treatment. When you are injured and have no value, the contract Lifted, everything as before.

In addition to the preferential treatment of not paying food, there is another invisible preferential treatment, that is, looting.This is actually the main income of soldiers.

Not only the Silver Fox family did this, but most of the nobles in northern Xinjiang did this. This was based on their compromise with the serfs in order to prevent the invasion of orcs.

In the southern part of the Kingdom of Sisinoa, the nobles there are even more absurd. Except for rewarding a few knights, the other kinnars are all used by them for banquets, making friends, and having fun. They don't even have a standing infantry regiment.

But Shire doesn't intend to do this, so that the soldiers trained in this way can fight smoothly and won't be able to gnaw hard bones.According to the nobleman's training method, soldiers and lords are a game relationship. The most important thing for soldiers is not to win the war, but to survive as much as possible. As for the interests of the lords, that is not in their consideration. What they need is to live. Go down and find a way to loot.

In the armies of these nobles, the most important thing is not the infantry, but the feudal knights in full armor. These knights have their own territories, have retinue knights, master breathing techniques and extraordinary strength, and they are the most important military power for these nobles. It is also the main expense of military expenses. The strength of nobles often does not depend on how many sergeants you have, but how many feudal knights you have.

But there is not a single feudal knight in Shire's territory. The previous knights were bloodbathed by him, and he was not canonized later, not now, and probably not in the future.Training the army mainly by feudal knights is not only expensive, but also weak in combat effectiveness.

However, Charles would not give up the cavalry, but Charles would never adopt the method of enfeoffing knights. What's the point of being a enfeoffing king? The successful experience in his previous life has pointed out the direction for him.

Charles said in a deep voice: "The rewards for wounded soldiers are the most important thing. Only by solving the problem of how the wounded soldiers live, will the soldiers of the Noxus family have no worries on the battlefield in the future."

Abdkad heard the meaning behind Shire's words, he thought of those injured robes, some of them had blocked the sword for him, he stood up immediately and said: "My lord baron, if you have any orders, I will carry them out immediately go down."

"Military achievements must be carefully and accurately counted, and the cattle and sheep must be delivered to them in person. This is what they deserve." Charlton paused, stood up, and continued: "Besides, these wounded soldiers left If they feel that learning breathing method is useless after entering the army, they can give this opportunity to their sons. If the veterans have already learned breathing method, they can give two more sheep.

By the way, we also need to find jobs for them so that they can live even if they are disabled. "

Charles has three arrangements for them to go. Some disabled soldiers are not very serious. Although they can't go to the battlefield, they have seen blood after all. It is no problem to clean up a few small robbers on the black market.They can be used as caravan guards.

Veterans with rich combat experience do not want to be guards, so they should become instructors who teach breathing methods. In addition to teaching breathing methods to recruits, they can also share combat experience with recruits, so that recruits can grow up quickly.

If the disability is serious, and they don't have much combat experience, they belong to those unlucky people who were disabled when they first went to the battlefield. Charles intends to send them to the military farm.

The military farm is Shire's next plan. Winter Fortress must have its own food production area. Now that the orcs in the north have been conquered, the land near Winter Fortress can be reclaimed.

However, the population of Cold Winter Fortress is too small, and most of the people here are rebellious and unruly people. It is impossible for them to farm safely. It is estimated that more than 3000 people can be selected out of more than 100 people.

But the thousands of tauren slaves brought back by Charles are quite suitable for these dirty and tiring jobs. They are big and thick, strong, patient, and rational. They were screened by Charles, and the rest are obedient and the only ones. The disadvantage is that you eat a little too much, if you eat less, it will be more perfect.

After Shire told Abudkad about the arrangement for the wounded soldiers, he went back to implement it without saying a word.
