Chapter 213: A military canton that sells dog meat under a sheep’s head
Chapter 209 – Hanging Sheep’s Heads and Selling Dog Meat as a Military Cantonment
“It seems like the military cantonment plan needs to be carried out urgently.” Owen rubbed his temples, which had been throbbing from overthinking, and sighed to Maya.
“I’ll mobilize a batch of supplies from the warehouse and send them over, then arrange for Howard to train the second group of Juntuns.” Maya said with a nod.
Owen pondered for a moment and found an option in the center of town.
There were sub-bases in the town center, and there were four slots at level four, Green Shade Town and Mara Town were two of them, and now in order to speed up development, the remaining ones had to be utilized as soon as possible.
“Prepare to have the Barbarian Tribe relocate to the Bison Territory, bestow them with totem poles, and at the same time change their name to the Bison Tribe, in addition, notify Bella, and have her take the marching tents and equipment with her.” Owen decided to utilize the remaining two slots.
A barbarian tribe and a nomadic tribe might be able to do wonders in the future.
While Owen and Maya were busy with their big plans for the development of the territory, Kayla came to class wearing a silver scale breastplate and carrying a musket.
Howard saw the young girl who followed along and rubbed his brow with some headache and sighed before continuing his lecture.
For Kayla he is not a stranger, after all, when the entire territory on him and Baron Kerenshi have common topics, so visit each other as a guest is a common thing, and even he also intends to help his son to create opportunities, want to let Kayla become his daughter-in-law, but unfortunately that stupid son is not enlightened, this matter will be left unsettled.
In spite of this, Howard did not get angry, instead of Kayla as his own offspring, so do not want to let her involved in this matter, but Ms. Maya agreed, is equivalent to the Lord Lord also agreed, even if he wanted to oppose it is useless, can only let Charlie and Monk to take care of a little bit, the first safe will be sent to Kayla Mara Town, then let her own father to the headache.
Musketeers in fact there is nothing to train, loading, shooting, maintenance, and then there is nothing, the other training is just to polish these people’s edges, so that they know how to obey orders, so a week later the training is over, learned a bellyful of theoretical knowledge of the three ready to go.
Carrying their packs, canteens, muskets, and brand new ammunition boxes and bayonets at their waists, and after receiving a one-handed tomahawk as a secondary weapon, these musketeers began their adventure.
First came to the town of Mara, at this time the town of Mara has already built a solid wall, thanks to the flyway network and the expansion of space pockets, a large number of materials continue to send, coupled with hard-working farmers, civil engineering work has always been the territory’s strong point.
Seeing the tall wall and archery tower, Charlie and Monk nodded with satisfaction, although their station is not here, Mara Town is their logistic base, as long as the logistic base is there, even if they lose the battle, they still have the chance to come back, or else they will be killed like a lost dog in the run.
At this time the town gate opened, Kerens brought ten cavalrymen to greet them, Charlie rushed forward.
The two men were of about the same origin, except that one had already made a name for himself, and the other was still struggling, so they were slightly kind to each other, and did not mean to go toe-to-toe.
Kerens is not afraid of the other side is to seize power, Charlie is not afraid of the other side will secretly black hand, so each other try a few sentences, the atmosphere is very harmonious.
“The camp for all of you is under construction, but the tents are already set up, so you can go and rest first, and I’ll have someone bring the prepared food in a moment.” Corenth did not let the other party enter the town of Mara, because right now they were not in the same system.
This had two meanings, one was that Corenth was the mayor of the town, he needed to be responsible for the town and wouldn’t let more than two hundred restless musketeers enter the town, the other reason was that the other party hadn’t been assimilated into the system yet, there was always a layer in between.
Collens had long been assimilated by the system, and his loyalty was already constant, which was why Owen had let him go to Mara Town as the town’s mayor in the first place. But assimilation is not brainwashing, Collens is only more loyal to the lord, more cordial to the people, more prestige in the town, thinking is unchanged, still want to get ahead as a nobleman, so no matter he or outsiders, will not notice any problem.
For not being able to enter the town, Charlie and Monk are not surprised, they can know what kind of goods their men are helping, in case of trouble, they are shooting that or that, so it is best to stay away.
Although the military cantonment is a sheep’s head selling dog meat, there should be quite a lot, not far from the town of Mara camp has been erected fences, set up tents, toilets have also been built, the only bathhouse, canteen, warehouse, cells and other things have not yet been built.
Interestingly, from come to go, Kerens this pair of father and daughter did not say a word, and even the eyes do not have any contact, but this does not mean that this pair of father and daughter turned against each other, so Charlie will be Kayla’s tent arranged between his tent and Monk’s tent.
Both of them are ambitious, not the kind who can’t move when they see a woman, not to mention that Kayla’s family and interpersonal relationship is the doorway they need the most, so they can’t let anything happen to Kayla in their place, so they put her under their eyes, just in case those bold bastards make something unmanageable.
After just one day of rest and recuperation, Charlie and the three of them headed to the military cantonment with their musketeers.
The so-called military cantonment is, to put it bluntly, to capture people back to farm, if not the territory’s treatment is good, can be converted, but also divided into fields and houses, they are doing the work of the slave catching team.
But this is not a good job, because they capture not stray people, but chaotic people.
Give a mouth to eat not to starve, the stragglers will not rebel, not the people, they prefer to rob their own hands, and even threw people into the pot to cook, so that the ogre are straight to the inside, so the need to be armed.
But their first day of bad luck, they encountered a group of chaotic folk are stewing meat, and the ingredients are fresh and alive, although no limbs, but still moaning, may be able to hold out until the next meal.
The face of the vicious eyes are eating red a group of chaotic people, Charlie and Monk face does not change color, similar scenes, although not common, but not unseen.
Really think that life in the empire is as rich as paradise, in fact, the empire is really eat people without spitting bones.
In the face of this scene, only Kayla pale and ugly, hands are trembling, good in the absence of disorder spit it out, otherwise the spot to the shame to only go home as a good girl, because there is no that soldier will obey a spit out of the female superiors.
“Not all places are Akita towns.” Charlie said to Kayla with slight emotion, he had been to a lot of places, the only place that had the most beautiful life for its people was Akita Town, and that was the reason why he didn’t dare to go close to where to open up the land, because he couldn’t defend himself against those serfs who wanted to escape.
“Prepare for battle, these chaotic people can’t be wanted, execute them all.” Monk didn’t have so many thoughts as Charlie, directly rolled over and dismounted his horse and picked up the battle axe to the musketeers around him and ordered to.
These musketeers are very dissatisfied, because if they don’t capture the messy people, they won’t have any money, but who let these messy people eat people, not many lords like to have guys who have eaten people in their own territory.
“Keep all the loot from this battle for yourself, there’s a big meal when you get back.” Charlie acutely sensed that the morale was not right, so he immediately spoke out.
Sure enough once this statement was made, the expression of the musketeers immediately changed, from dissatisfaction to a leap of faith.
