Don't mess with that dragon

Chapter 46
Military training can enhance the combat effectiveness of the subordinate orcs, and group activities can bring food to the Dragon's Nest tribe by hunting wild animals. No matter what it is, it is much more meaningful than this "idle and boring game" in Pooh's opinion.

Seeing that piles of weeds as high as orcs were about to burn out, Pooh felt that he was going to hunt or train and other serious business, but unfortunately his wish could not be realized after all.

"Pooh, your next task is to lead your subordinates to get wooden shovels and turn over the land here!"

The blue young dragon gave the order with great interest, looking at this large piece of land with ambition in his eyes.

This will be the first step in the Long March!
As long as this beginning is done well, the rest will be much better.

Austin moved his lips, but let the orc family run away.

With a wry smile, Pooh led a large group of orcs, found a place, and directed the digging.

The 50 mu of land is almost as large as two playgrounds. Even if the orcs gathered no less than [-] people this time, it will take at least a whole day to completely turn over the [-] mu of land.

Step on it with a shovel, grab the wooden handle and tilt it, turning the thick soil over.

Digging the soil is a laborious task. Even though the physical strength of the orcs is much stronger than that of ordinary humans, the orcs are panting and sweating profusely after a while.

Seeing a group of orcs sweating and working hard for more than half an hour, they only turned over a corner of the area.

"It seems that we have to see if we can domesticate some bison and horses in the future, otherwise this speed will be too slow."

Looking at the orcs struggling to fight the soil, Austin thought secretly in his heart.

Only [-] acres of land have been reclaimed, and with the production of kudzu root, it is far from enough to feed the orcs. After the cultivation of this land is completed, it is inevitable to reclaim the land.

Although it will be faster for the orcs to gain experience after the next land reclamation and expansion, they are still inferior to animal power. If cattle and horses can be domesticated, it will have a great effect on land reclamation and future development.

"Since Pueraria was chosen as the food for the first planting, there is no need to look for land near the river in the future. Anyway, Pueraria can survive in some places where there is insufficient water on the top of the grass."

If this is the case, it can also greatly reduce the difficulty of land reclamation.

Just as Austin was making plans in the future, seeing all the orcs sweating profusely was already too much to bear, so the "village head" Pooh asked the orcs to stop, take a rest, sit down, drink some water or something.

But he repeated several times in his heart, and finally came to Austin in a tangled state.

"His Royal Highness Austin, if you want to turn over all the soil inside, there is no way to do it in one day. Today's training and hunting have not been completed yet, you see"

Speaking of which, Pooh looked at the blue young dragon expectantly, obviously hoping to stop the meaningless digging and do more meaningful training and hunting.

"Your military training has been done very well. Before the weapons are updated, you run five kilometers each morning and evening, review your standing posture, turn left and right, and so on."

After several months of training, the orcs have lost their previous laziness, and after several bloody battles, once they gather into an army, they will immediately exude a bloody aura, and their spears will form a forest, showing that they have been well trained. Sequence, incomparably elite.

But Austin also knew that the orcs with wooden sticks and spears in their hands were already at their limit, and further training would only increase their combat power by a point or two. It would be better to spend time on this great cause.

Anyway, only when the blue young dragon smelts copper and iron, and each orc wears a bronze armor and holds a copper and iron weapon, then can the combat effectiveness of the subordinate legion be greatly enhanced again.

"As for hunting, the bacon made from the prey you hunt these days is enough for the Dragon Nest tribe for more than a month. The beasts in the Dragon Nest territory have been reduced to a very small level, so there is no need to spend any more effort , you do your best to do what I told you, if you can succeed this time, the tribe will no longer have to worry about starvation."

As the saying goes, too much is too late, even if you hunt and kill, you can't go fishing. Anyway, the beasts in the Dragon's Nest territory are no longer a threat to the orcs. When they grow up and hunt them again, there will be a lot of food harvest.

Pooh was a little puzzled, what does this have to do with turning over the dirt and not being hungry anymore?

But although puzzled, Pooh refrained from asking.

Obeying the order means that if His Royal Highness Austin says it can, then it will be done.

This is the superstition and blind obedience he experienced after becoming a member of the blue young dragon's family.

Pooh cheered up and returned to the team, and told all the orcs present what Austin had said, and the orcs who were resting from exhaustion immediately became highly motivated.

Under the leadership of the blue young dragon, they had a full meal and lived a life that they never dared to imagine before. In the process, all the orcs had a great admiration for Austin. Since His Royal Highness Austin said this , it must be correct.

Seeing that the orc, who was as tired as a salted fish, was immediately revived with full blood and entered a state of enthusiasm, Austin also seemed a little speechless about it.

It is not unreasonable to say that orcs are simple-minded and careless.

However, it is precisely this advantage that makes Austin lead these orcs smoothly without spending too much effort.

When the blue young dragon was monitoring the digging work of the orcs, a kobold suddenly rushed over not far away, and when he saw the blue young dragon, he shouted as if he saw a savior:
"Your Highness, Your Highness Austin, I finally found you!"

"what happened?"

Seeing the kobold running to him quickly, Austin asked in a deep voice.

"An accident happened. The three teams went out to hunt and came back. Many orcs were injured!"

At this time, the orcs around all stopped their work and turned their eyes over. During the breathless explanation of the kobold, something that Austin cared about slowly came out of his mouth. .

Yesterday, the three teams went to the south of the Dragon's Nest territory to strangle the wild beasts, but they didn't return all night, and finally came back today.

But almost all the orcs who came back were wounded, and the leader, the lizard man Rodney, was only half breathed.

I heard from those orc team members that they entered a cave and met spiders. They were very big, very scary, and there were a lot of spiders!

And according to the orcs' description, the large spider in the spider cave seems to be a monster with innate spells!
