Crossing the Other World: My Warcraft System

Chapter 56 Construction Planning

The next day, Garin dispatched half of his soldiers to the north to prepare to build a camp in the basin discovered yesterday.

The camp in the south was left for Aragorn to garrison, and Aragorn was asked to lead the thousand soldiers in the camp to defend against the trolls in the south and the dry-bearded kobolds that might appear in the east.

Kobolds are humanoid creatures that live in underground caves. They usually wear tattered clothes, are short in stature, and have rat-like tails. In order to adapt to the dark environment of underground caves, they walk with burning candles on their heads.

Usually, kobolds are only about one meter tall and have weak fighting power. They often use their numbers or various simple tactics in battle, but they are also very timid.

In his previous life, the most annoying thing about playing World of Warcraft for Garin was entering caves. In the caves, there were either small inferior demons, spiders, and short ogres. The caves themselves were winding and it was dizzy. These monsters would even attack actively, which was extremely annoying.

One of the reasons why Garin took a fancy to this piece of land was partly because of the Withered Beard Canyon. The ogres liked to mine, and the mines occupied by the ogres were definitely rich mines.

When Amor and his men arrive, we will defeat the kobolds of the Withered Beard Tribe and occupy the Withered Beard Canyon. The mineral deposits in the north of the basin and the Withered Beard Mine will all be mine. Double mines! Hehehehe!

It is better to deploy the buildings in the base now before Amor and the others arrive, so as to avoid being scared by a farmer building a farm in one day.

The northern basin is an irregular circle with a radius of less than ten kilometers. The bottom is relatively flat and the slope of the edge is about four or five meters high.

This place is so large, its area is comparable to that of a county town in ancient China. No wonder a shelter second only to Durnholde Keep was built here after the Orc War.

At this moment, a team of red-robed soldiers was advancing towards the basin. The thousand-man team of the Red Flame Army was divided into ten square formations, with infantry in the front row and musketeers in the back row, forming a semi-encircled formation, and they were cleaning up the interior of the basin in a carpet-like manner.

This area in the northeast has been rarely visited since the days of the Arathi Empire. Apart from the occasional hunter who came from afar, even trolls rarely come here.

Over the years, the basin has become a habitat for giant highland spiders. Now the Red Flame Army has to clear out the spiders before setting up camp.

Garin stood on the high slope, watching the Red Flame Army advance step by step. It felt like he was watching a Total War game. The infantry were lined up in a neat row, and the musketeers in the rear were shooting forward through the gaps between the infantry. Waves of smoke kept floating up into the air and then dissipated.

In the open space behind him, Gandalf was waiting for the cooldown of the mass teleportation. He had already made two or three trips to Minas Tirith in the northeast and southeast, bringing hundreds of farmers each time. With two more trips, Gandalf's mission would be completed.

One thousand farmers are part of Garin's plan. When the basin is cleaned up, Garin plans to build a town hall in the center of the basin and then recharge his 40,000 gold coins.

The next step is to build 500 farms directly.

Big project!

When the soldiers had made more than half of their progress and had reached the center of the basin, Garin withdrew his attention and continued to prepare the plan for the new town.

On the high ground outside the basin, Garin planned to build a circle of city walls first, with a sentry post every fifty meters as the skeleton, and then let the farmers use stones to connect the sentry posts. A circle of city walls would complete the defense of the town.

The town hall built in the center of the basin will serve as the dividing line. To the north will be the farm area of ​​the base, which will occupy half of the town. Garin plans to use the farm area as his own private territory in the future, and the open space in the south will be left for the people migrating from the kingdom.

Then, like the later Hammerfall Town, a gap was opened on the edge of the basin in the south to serve as the main gate of the town. A bluestone avenue was built leading directly to the town hall in the center. The city gate was extended to the south and a road connecting to Geshak Farm was paved.

First, build a large fountain in the open space at the entrance of the town hall and use it as the central square. Then build a commercial district around the square. These shops can then attract investment and make some money.

Jialin praised his own wit.

As for other functions of the town, Garin plans to reserve an area to build a mill, a brewery and a bakery, or some other grain processing plants for grain processing.

The Kingdom wants to build the Northeast into the fourth grain-producing area. To be more precise, Solas wants to build the Northeast into the fourth largest granary.

Garin somewhat understood his father's thoughts. Of the three major grain-producing farms in the kingdom, the royal family only had one, the Geshak Farm, and the remaining two belonged to Marquis Northford and Earl Dabire.

Earl Dabire is okay, he belongs to the royal party, but Marquis Northford is a noble family left over from the Arathor Empire, just like the Trollbane family. In Garin's opinion, this family is not a fellow traveler of the Trollbane family.

What is in your own hands belongs to you, so Solas started this immigration plan. In theory, all the land that has not been enfeoffed to nobles belongs to the royal family. After Garin built this town, it will belong to the royal family.

His father only wanted food, so Garin positioned this town as a food logistics base. As long as he could provide enough food, Garin would occupy half of the town as his private territory, and Solas would not say much.

Provide your own mature wheat, and then recruit migrant workers to work in processing plants in the south. The endless supply of wheat can be turned into flour, bread, and beer.

Whether it is exported as a commodity, traded, or stored as a backup material, it is not a problem. As for the profit sharing, I can talk to my father slowly at that time.

Back to the topic, based on the size of the basin, Garin estimated that in the future the southern area of ​​the town alone would be able to accommodate at least 100,000 people.

Half a year later, when the migrated people from the kingdom arrived, they were asked to build houses along several main roads in the southern area during the day, and to live in dormitories inside the farm at night.

The houses must be of uniform style, and each two-story building must be arranged neatly, so that it looks comfortable.

The materials are all ready-made. Half a year is enough for the farmers in the base to collect enough boulders from the mines. The wood comes from the trees in the mountains of Alterac. It is enough for the farmers to leave some of the wood when they collect it.

The first batch of more than 10,000 people were directly rewarded with houses and given some preferential policies to help them quickly adapt to life in the new town. After they settled down, they were arranged to work in factories.

The wheat planting on the farm is the responsibility of the farmers at the base, which avoids the exposure of secrets to the greatest extent. The immigrants are only responsible for processing, and are not allowed to get involved in Garin's core industry.

The above are just Garin’s preliminary ideas. He will discuss them with Gandalf after he is done to see if there is anything he has missed.

Garin was just an ordinary person in his previous life. He was a rookie in political intrigues and military affairs, but he knew how to delegate power. He didn't know how to command an army, so he handed the team over to Amor. He was not proficient in business and internal affairs, so he discussed more with Harmon and learned from them and accumulated experience.

As long as he firmly controls the base of the Heart of Origin, develops the economy, and makes the expansion of troops his top priority, the torrent of red flames will one day grow to an unimaginable size.

When one day I leave Azeroth, my journey will be to the sea of ​​stars.
