Chapter 421: Borderland Day Farming
Chapter 421: Hundred Days of Farming in Borderland
When Angeno II went to the forging town, the new policy of Fort Kahn was in full swing.
Luo Bo himself was not actually keen on dynastic struggles, or building a foundation or creating wealth.
This is determined by its 'factory settings'.
Although he is the clone of Kuroobo, some of his memories were deleted after all, so that he can focus more on performing his tasks instead of thinking about irrelevant things all the time.
However, the spiritual imprint of the Dongda School is indeed very strong. When faced with a problem, the Luobo School will instinctively start thinking about farming instead of thinking about snatching what they need from somewhere else.
As for Luo Bo's subordinates, they deeply realized the benefits of "shepherding the people" when they were in the Tianzhou world.
Raising pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks is not as good as raising people. Therefore, Dong Wang and others are confident that they can replicate the success of Emperor Wu's dynasty.
Especially when compared with their garbage peers, they don’t even need to shout out lofty slogans, draw sweet pie pictures, or act; they can just make money by just standing there.
Look, the first Lingwu recruitment meeting was held very successfully. People who were previously timid and fearful are now rushing to take the test and join the ranks of Lingwu.
It’s mainly the role of role models, and the effect is huge.
Originally, he was not as good as his neighbor, but he caught the trend and became a master! His social status was improved, and his quality of life was obviously improved. He became a respectable person.
This kind of thing happened right next to me, but it was too exciting. It made me lose my appetite and unable to sleep at night. I tossed and turned, wondering why I couldn't be the one who was so awesome? I wouldn't die if I tried it? If this was a trap, what could they want from me? My life was not as valuable as a hand of a spirit weapon mecha...
Am I underestimating myself? Not really.
At least in this world, the life of a peasant is really worthless. If he is beaten to death by the master for no reason, he can be compensated with a cow or a horse afterwards, and he still has to thank the master for his kindness.
Therefore, this time Lingwu's enrollment only looked at talent and not background, and only gave the most basic human rights, and then began to meet the will of the people.
Moreover, large-scale construction required labor, and the new lords not only provided them with adequate food and drink, meat every meal, daily wages, and extra bonuses for outstanding work. People's willingness to work was immediately mobilized.
With the help of supernatural powers and the assistance of spiritual weapons, it only took Kahnburg a few days to achieve a great transformation.
The lord's castle and several other landmark buildings have been repaired and renovated while retaining their original style, making them solemn, majestic and magnificent.
The driveway was widened, leveled, paved with bluestone, and drains were added.
The water supply and drainage in the town were also built at once.
The bricks and stones removed from the surface buildings were used to build sewers, etc., while the ground was made of a large amount of specially processed wood.
High temperature and high pressure semi-carbonization processing, previously in the dark area of the Tianzhou world, had already been integrated into a complete set of processes for processing large underground fungal materials as building materials.
The trees on the surface are also suitable for use. They are a level better than modern particle boards on Earth in all aspects. They can be used as wall panels.
In order to process and manufacture these building materials, all the trees around Kahn Castle were cut down as raw materials, even the tree stumps were not spared.
The battle of clearing the countryside was completed at the same time.
The city walls of Fort Kahn also underwent large-scale adjustments.
It can even be said that it was rebuilt after being demolished.
During this process, not only was the width, thickness and height of the ship upgraded, but twelve super-heavy arrow towers that could house multiple crossbows were also added, arranged in a clock-like pattern.
Naturally, this is the node of the magic circle. The center of the magic circle is the magic fountain in the central square of Kahn Castle.
As a bright spot amidst the greenery of the solemn buildings, this magic fountain is the only sight in the town.
There are no complex sculptures or varied fountain effects, but the water itself, as a carrier of supernatural power, makes it look particularly dreamy, clear and translucent, with rainbows in the daytime and neon lights at night, which makes people intoxicated.
All of Luo Bo's family members were fond of magic arrays. Luo Bo's skills in this area were not bad. When he established the dynasty in Tianzhou World, he passed down twelve major arrays and twenty-four minor arrays. After iteration and refinement, there were nearly a hundred types in total.
The current arrangement in Fort Kahn is just a small test.
While renovating and rebuilding Fort Kahn, the surveying and planning of the territory was also not neglected.
All of the nine heroes are talented. They have sorted out the mineral veins and more suitable excavation methods, and also designed and trial-built a new type of dock farm.
From the perspective of the entire region, Fort Kahn is located on the outskirts of the Great Plains.
It is the northeastern border of the Great Plains, facing mountains and dense forests, and the defense pressure it bears is second only to the Triple Fortress area to the north.
In the past, the most common monster harassment that Kahn Castle suffered came from the sky.
But every time a major loss is caused, it always comes from the mountains and forests.
Over time, the humans of Kahnburg even summed up some rules.
For example, if winter comes too early and there is a lot of snow, low temperatures and severe cold, then a demonic tide will occur the next spring, or even before the beginning of spring, causing severe security challenges and huge casualties and property losses.
In the past years, Fort Kahn has relied on continuous blood transfusions from the Great Plains to ensure the relative health of its population.
However, since those sent there were either criminals or refugees, Fort Kahn's investment in public security management has remained high, and the results have been mediocre.
After the plundering by the Celestial Conquerors, Luo Bo's team believed that it would be difficult to replenish the population in the next year.
After all, the social order of the indigenous people of the Great Plains has collapsed, and even if a large number of refugees are formed, it is unlikely that they will flee towards Fort Kahn.
Faced with the impending turmoil, Kahnburg, with its limited population, must first raise its safety factor by one level if it wants to maintain normal living and production order.
The improvement of safety factor must be accompanied by population management.
To put it simply, it is a quasi-military reorganization + reclamation model.
For various reasons, the lords in the past failed to manage the people properly, let alone maximize the value of people.
But Luo Bo’s team is different. Relying on the Lingwu system, any citizen in the territory can be utilized.
In order to speed up the progress and be more effective, Dong Wang naturally introduced dark-style methods, such as concentration camps and fake prisoners.
The forced mode with a screening function will classify the people into obedient and unruly. Each has its own response measures.
This is a reflection of the experience and results of detailed management after Luo Bo became emperor and the core team was established.
Compared with Robbo’s original one-size-fits-all strategy, today’s strategy is obviously more humane and the rebound can be reduced to a very low level.
In addition, although the management is compulsory, human rights have been greatly improved compared to the past, and the peasants soon exclaimed that it was really a good thing.
After all, even during a bumper harvest, they normally can't eat and drink to their heart's content, let alone the meals being of such high quality.
As for Luo Bo's team, generally speaking, the pressure of feeding so many people is not high.
They already have some food reserves, in addition to those seized from the indigenous lords, there is also some accumulation from the Tianzhou world.
It’s not much, but it’s more than enough to support Castle Kahn’s expenses for half a year.
This still takes into account the increased consumption after the nationwide vigorous promotion of the Lingwu system.
The environmental regulation effect of the Lingwu magic array and the effect of breeding and fertilizing the fields are enough to support the three productions of farmland in a year. In the Tianzhou world, it was relying on this set of technology that the Wudi Dynasty was established. After all, food is the first necessity of the people, and Luo Bo's cruel rule means that the sweet dates on his other hand must be sweet enough, and food supply is an important part.
Otherwise, even if they can rule for a while, the costs will increase, public grievances will accumulate, and soon undercurrents will surge and all kinds of trouble will occur. By then, it will be difficult to maintain the normal operation of society, let alone make progress.
Precisely because of their strong capabilities, the team led by King Dong performed smoothly and quickly in taking over Kahn Castle.
All the population in the territory was gathered together in three days, and the rough screening was completed within seven days.
By the fifteenth day, three of the eight dock farms around Fort Kahn had been completed.
A month later, the renovation of Fort Kahn and the construction of eight dock farms were completed.
The people of the territory have also completed the screening.
Under the order of the King of the East, the second phase of construction began, consisting of two towns and one fortress.
Plain Town, as the name suggests, faces the Great Plains and is used to interact with humans coming from there.
It was originally just a small town, but after the exploration was completed, it was expanded into a medium-sized town that could accommodate tens of thousands of people.
In the future, four dock farms will be built along the road from Pingyuan Town to Fort Kahn.
Including the roads, these are all part of the third phase of the project.
Another town is called Mining Town. As the name suggests, it was built to mine the best metal mines in Kahn Territory.
It also existed originally, but its scale and industries were not up to standard. Now it will be expanded into a medium-sized town that can accommodate 10,000 people.
Naturally, Kahn Castle cannot accommodate so many people in a short period of time, but it doesn’t matter. Luo Bo and his faction are confident that they can make up for the population gap within a year.
The fortress is Dushan Fortress. The so-called Dushan is actually a solitary mountain on the outskirts of the mountains. It looks quite out of place when viewed from the sky. It is about 15 kilometers away from other rolling mountains. They can be seen clearly from each other, but it feels a bit like a dead horse running over a mountain.
The Eastern King ordered to station troops at Dushan and transform it into a fortress built on the mountain with an empty interior, so that it could serve as a frontier defense point to guard the mountains in the east and northeast.
As for the dense forest to the north of Kahn Castle, there is no good solution for the time being. At this stage, Luo Bo only released one king and six generals, which is more than enough for guarding but not enough for development.
The King of the East also vaguely understood Luo Bo's meaning, so he adopted a contraction strategy in that direction.
A portion of the previously cultivated land was sacrificed to turn it into a vast wilderness buffer zone, and a warning system was set up to facilitate response to dangerous monsters appearing in that direction.
Since the new Wubao Farm uses magic arrays to regulate the climate and has advanced technology for three productions a year, there is no need to worry about the area becoming barren and leading to a reduction in grain production.
In fact, the contraction is far more than just in this direction, but it is particularly concentrated here, and almost all of it has been withdrawn.
In the past, the lord of Fort Carne adopted the strategy of planting widely and yielding little, which was similar to that of the Great Plains.
But nowadays, we cultivate crops intensively, so we are more selective.
In addition to the protective effect of the dock itself, King Dong deliberately adjusted its position.
For example, a group of them were arranged along the roads between important towns, so as to enhance the safety of travel in the future, and there would be places to stay like post stations every few sections of the road.
In addition, there are eight dock farms around Fort Kahn, which can be used as outer fortresses.
Another thing is to set up docks along the banks of the only river that passes through the territory of Fort Kahn.
This is a full use of its water resources. In future planning, this area will be supplemented by a canal dam water network and developed into a major planting area...
Time flies, and winter comes in a blink of an eye.
The hundred-day deadline for the Celestial Fleet to invade the Xuanbing World is approaching.
King Dai Luobo of the East received a notice from the Council of Heaven and Man.
The notice required Luo Bo to go to Tianhuan Garden for a meeting on the 101st day.
King Dong knew that this was a summary meeting for the first phase of Operation Conqueror.
This action itself is a competitive nature.
As far as he knew, the specific purpose was to compare the degree of mastery of Xuanbing technology.
After all, Xuanbing is the specialty of the current world, and the purpose of the Tianren Council's invasion of this world is to turn this specialty into a part of the many powerful technologies possessed by the Tianren Group.
The King of the East was not sure whether Luo Bo had made any relevant preparations.
But he wasn't worried that Robbo would lose.
In other words, it’s not about winning or losing at all.
In his opinion, Luo Bo always has his own plans and rhythm, and it is difficult for him to be influenced by others.
If Robo thinks it is necessary, even if it means losing the competition or going against the Council of Heavenly Beings, he will do it without hesitation.
As his subordinates, the shikima and shikigami headed by him only need to cooperate and assist and implement Rabo's will. For other things, they don't need to think too much or give any advice.
It can be said that this is the degree of being a minister. There are some decisions that they don't need to consider for Luo Bo, that would be tantamount to usurpation.
Similarly, the King of the East does not need his heroes and generals to consider policy strategies. They only need to take care of their respective areas or the work they are responsible for.
The first phase of the project in Pingyuan Town and Mining Town has been completed.
Dushan Fortress has also completed the first phase of the bridgehead-style construction, and the Lingwu Team has moved in.
It has been almost two months since Angelo came back. He brought back one disciple, and the other one passed the test and came to him on his own. The progress of their cultivation is extraordinary and can be described as rapid.
After Ares, Drax, and Gratz worked together to eliminate the well-known monster Blood Beast in the mountains to the east, they stationed in Plain Town and presided over the military affairs in the surrounding areas.
This direction borders the Great Plains. With the looting of the heavenly warriors, the original social order was completely broken. Many small groups of mysterious warriors were separatist and looting, and the chaos spread to the territory of Fort Kahn.
Ares and his two companions ensured that Kahn Castle would not be harassed by mysterious disasters, military disasters, or refugees and bandits in the southwest.
The mining town was guarded and managed by two other Shikima generals. Martial law was implemented, and the main force working in the mines were prisoners who had committed crimes.
After Luo Bo's faction announced the new policy, these people either refused to cooperate, or acted cunningly or secretly made trouble.
The measure taken by King Dong to deal with him is military control and labor reform. If he does not die in the mine within 3-5 years, he will be given a chance to reform himself.
The Lonely Mountain Fortress is currently guarded by Angelo, and his two disciples also follow him to practice and cultivate.
It can be said that the current Kahn Castle has completed the first stage of control.
Anyway, Dong Wang himself is more confident in facing conventional or unconventional complex challenges.
The latter would require Luo Bo to step in personally to deal with high-end battle situations.
The news that the Celestial Council wanted Luo Bo to attend the meeting had already been delivered by the King of the East. Now it all depended on what Luo Bo was going to do...
