The Origin of Arcane

If the fire at Bastille failed, not so many powerful lords and nobles were burned to death.

If Grand Duke Borg hadn't been so eager for quick success and quick benefits in recent years, he would have made his subordinates alienated from morality.

If the slave gladiator uprising does not break out now under the leadership of the Man Yu army, give Grand Duke Borg three or four years of buffer time.

Even if the Eternal Night Legion now has 100,000 soldiers and civilians, it is foreseeable that they will be driven back into the mountains.

No matter how poor Man Yu's army is, the opponent's area and population are there, and the combat potential is far from what he can compare. Well, Sean couldn't recover after ten or eight years. He couldn't be a supporting teacher in Dashan for more than ten years, right?

Therefore, if you can avoid war now, avoid war.

Even if he wants to fight, he has to wait until he has established a solid foundation in the mountains, gets a suitable name in the Byron League, and becomes a member of the opponent. At that time, even if there is a fight, it is also an internal war, and it will not Lead to a full-scale counterattack.

Some things are not suitable for these low-level officers to talk about. Xiao En just reached a consensus with the top level of the Eternal Night Legion, and some of them can only be bored in his own stomach.

This enlarged meeting of officers is not only a war mobilization meeting, but a political and ideological meeting, to eliminate the top-down impetuous atmosphere within the Eternal Night Army, and not to affect its own development because of the turmoil news from the Man Yu army leader. Rhythm.

It is only the first step to figure it out. At the same time, we must do the ideological work of the Yongye soldiers below and mobilize their enthusiasm for construction and production.

In order to fully mobilize this point, the conference put forward an initiative on mobile red flags. Three levels of mobile red flags will be set up in gold, silver, and bronze with guards as units. Half a year is the unit, and the scores are compared from the aspects of self-training and construction and production. The top three will hold the red flag until the next selection results come out.

In addition to this kind of glory, it is also linked to interests in real terms. According to the level of the mobile red flag, the salary from top to bottom will be increased by 1.5, 1.3, and 1.1 times. Once the mobile red flag is captured Go, the salary will be the same.

As soon as this proposal came out, it was approved by all the officers, and they were all gearing up, ready to show their strengths, and they had to win the mobile red flag back to their homes.

What these young officers look at is not actual benefits, but the honor brought by the floating red flag. Every soldier is eager to make contributions. Since he has no chance to show himself on the battlefield, he will win the championship in this kind of military competition.

On the contrary, it was about the issue of Bastille, and it was handled lightly. A regiment was only transferred. In the name of training, it took only one day and one night to appear outside the rebuilt city of Bastille.

The 200 kilometers of roads built in the past year included the military buffer zone that had been deliberately set aside.

Back then, the terrifying construction speed of the Eternal Night Legion shocked the lords and nobles in the Bastille.

As for whether this will become a convenient channel for the leader of Man Yu to attack the Eternal Night Army, the Eternal Night Army is not worried at all from top to bottom. Demonstration of power.

Compared with the relatively wide and long Jacob's ancient channel, a channel is easier to deploy.

After reaching the bottom of the city, the higher-ups passed on the combat orders to the middle and lower-level officers, which again attracted a low cry of astonishment.

But this time it was not the war itself that determined the fate of the Bastille, but the exchange of interests outside the war, which went smoothly beyond imagination.

When the regiment of the Eternal Night Army arrived at the city, the retreat of the soldiers in the Bastille was coming to an end.

Just as Angelbena expected, Patrem couldn't refuse the temptation to become the supreme ruler of the Manyu army, and agreed to the terms of the deal almost without thinking about it, and abandoned Bastille like a shoestring.

Compared with a military leader, the threat posed by Bastille or the Andes is insignificant. When he has mastered the military and political power, it will not be easy to take back Bastille.

Before leaving, Patraim did not leave a fully restored Bastille to Sean and the others, but threw a fire, and once again burned this troubled city to devastation.

He did so, but it made the commander who came to take over the Eternal Night Army heaved a sigh of relief. The other party did such a terrific thing, but it showed that there was no other plan in it.

If they follow the example of the Eternal Night Army and leave an empty city there, the Eternal Night Army outside the city will be in a dilemma, suspicious, and in order to prevent fraud, they can't say they set a big fire on their own.

However, setting fire to the city that was about to be abandoned and the city that was about to be occupied were two different things. Patraim helped them do it, but it didn't make them so entangled.

Compared with the fire that was set by the Eternal Night Army a year ago, the fire that Patraim set off is far behind in terms of professionalism and preparation. After only burning for a day and a night, he himself Slowly extinguished.

It wasn't until three days later that the unit of the Eternal Night Army officially settled in Bastille after receiving the exact news that Patlem had led the army to leave.

In less than a week, two affiliated engineering regiments plus 10,000 mountain people who had just finished farming drove over in a mighty manner, launching a vigorous city building movement.

Logging, cutting stones, finishing foundations, digging soil to open kilns, burning bricks, tiles and ashes...

Everything was in order, without any chaos.

Hundreds of walled cities, tens of thousands of houses were not built for nothing, and two hundred kilometers of mountain roads were not built for nothing. The Engineering Corps affiliated to the Eternal Night Army has long been honed into a super engineering team by a lot of infrastructure work. I dare not compare it in my previous life, but in the Arshan Continent, in terms of efficiency and quality, they say it is second, and no one dares to say it is number one.

When it comes to firing clay bricks and earth tiles, it is said that it has technical content, but it is a little bit, and it is said that it has no technical content, but it really does not have much technical content. The most important thing is the issue of heating.

It might be a problem before the formation of the Eternal Night Legion, but it is not a problem at all now.

A hundred guards were specially drawn out, and dozens of furnaces were built without doing anything else. All kinds of materials were put in and baked.

This burning really produced a lot of good things.

The adobe bricks and tiles are the cheapest, and the adobe is relatively mid-range. Occasionally, a few furnaces actually burn something extraordinary—colorful colored glaze.

This is definitely a good thing. It is said that there is also production in the Gemini Peninsula, but the output is very low, and it is regarded as a secret by the Witches' Secret Society. If the church is decorated with this, the grade will be raised several steps immediately.

Unexpectedly, these things that are equivalent to silver are fired from a pile of worthless sand.

It is conceivable what kind of shocked expression the hundred guards who burned the glass had. No wonder General Xiao En made the confidentiality mechanism of their hundred guards the same level as medical research bases and iron and steel mills from the very beginning. Like a god, I know that I will burn out an incredible treasure.

I notified Sean about this matter at the first time, and the reply I got was that it was just good, and I will continue to work hard to burn more good things. You might as well use your brains during the firing process, not only trying some kind of soil and sand alone, but also mixing them together. For a moment, mix some other things, use different temperatures, maybe there will be different results.

Sean's ultimate goal is to make porcelain. Asaen has pottery but not porcelain, and even the popularity of pottery is not very high. Many places still have wooden bowls. Man Yujun is such a place. Compared with Andy In the Si Mountains, the Manyu Army, which has a large number of open-pit coal mines, is more suitable for this industry.

Just like most people in the previous life, when it comes to bricks, tiles, porcelain, glass, and colored glaze, Xiao En only stays in the fact that they are fired from sand, and at most, porcelain is fired from clay, kaolin, and other special soils.

But what kind of clay and kaolin are, then I don’t know anything, let alone the more complicated process and temperature, all of which are half-knowledgeable and require a little bit of experimentation.

The only advantage is that knowing the result and working hard to explore in this direction will make it easier to reap the results.

Although the hundred guards who did this didn't know the result, they had almost blind admiration and trust in Xiao En. Since the general asked him to do this, he must have his own deep meaning.

After being confirmed, their admiration for Sean has risen to a higher level, and they are full of energy. Without Sean’s warning, they will also open their minds. When something is found, the first reaction is to send it into the furnace, burn it to see, and almost send the corpse in.

This hundred-person guard is also considered to be famous for burning, and he is known as the burning guard in the Eternal Night Army. This is not ridicule, but envy.

This Hundred Guards has been expanded into a school, which specially recruits more professional talents from the Eternal Night Army Corps and the affiliated Engineering Corps to expand itself.

The kilns have also changed from the original twenty or so to the current two hundred or so, and there are more than two thousand mountain people working under their orders.

It is said that this is just the beginning. With the expansion of the Eternal Night Legion's territory, more and more infrastructure projects need to be carried out, and their scale will become larger and larger. It is not impossible to form a regiment or even an army alone.

But if the soldiers of the Eternal Night Legion really choose to join the Burning Guards, most people will hesitate instead.

Judging from the current posture, the burning guards are moving closer from the main guards to the subordinate engineers. Even if they do not become engineers in the future, they will become more professional logistics guards.

The Eternal Night Legion has always emphasized the division of labor, and it is becoming more and more obvious. Soldiers with a sense of mind pay great attention to this when they change positions. Even if it is a promotion, if the division of labor is not right for them, they will discuss it with their superiors. , It’s not that I don’t accept it, but I want to report it to the higher authorities, whether there is any mistake, and whether it needs to be adjusted.

This kind of oolong incident is always a minority, and the personnel changes of the Eternal Night Legion will fully consider whether the major is suitable, as well as personal wishes.

Of course, this is the army, and personal will is only one aspect. If the army needs to issue a mandatory military order, the individual will must obey the collective will.

Even without the fire set off by Patraim, the Eternal Night Legion did not intend to keep the original Bastille, and the entire castle, including the fortress which could be called strong, was completely flattened.

What nonsense, nonsense, what nonsense, where did this blueprint come from? He actually wants to move the city site ten kilometers east? Does he know what this means? This means that our building area will be completely expanded compared to the original More than ten times, with the number of people we have now, even if we don't sleep and rest, we can't expect to finish the project within ten years!

Also, what kind of architectural blueprint is this? Is this a blueprint for a city? Instead of building a city on a flat land, a castle is built on two mountainsides. Here are all city walls. What kind of mess is this? It's simply whimsical! Knowing this How much manpower and material resources will be wasted in vain? How ridiculous are the things built?

A middle-of-the-road roar spread far and wide on the field.

Both soldiers and farmers are used to it. When they see familiar people, they can't help jokingly asking, Who messed with our lord architect?

I don't know what kind of food the Lord Architect eats all day long to be so angry.

If one day I don't hear the lord architect get angry, I won't have the energy to work.

The middle-aged man with a mustache and a height of more than 1.6 meters was furious. His name was Ferdinand, and he was once a knight of Lord Man Yu's army.

That's right, he was one of the captives who burned the Bastille back then. He was not given to Angel Bernard as a gift by the Eternal Night Legion, because a year ago, when he learned that his family was uprooted by the Grand Duke Borg, his relatives After being killed by his political enemies, and his manor divided between Grand Duke Borg and his political enemies, he chose to surrender and joined the Eternal Night Army.

Although he hated the Eternal Night Legion, he hated the despicable and shameless Grand Duke Borg and his political enemies even more, the latter was far higher than the former.

After all, it is normal for them to be in a hostile relationship with the Eternal Night Army, no matter what means the other party uses.

And Grand Duke Borg is the object of allegiance to the object of his allegiance. After he went out to fight and sacrificed his life for the country, he treated his family like this. This is a shameless betrayal.

Moreover, he is a smart man, knowing that after returning to the Man Yu army, he will not have any way to survive. Neither his political opponents nor Grand Duke Borg hope that he will survive.

There are not a few lords and nobles who made the same choice as Ferdinand, and the experiences of these people are basically similar to his.

The remaining ones are either stubborn, foolish and loyal people, or they are nobles who have not been annexed by Grand Duke Borg with real power, and they have a glimmer of hope for returning to the territory and regaining power.

These people have all been given to Angel Bena by Sean. As for how much power they can exert, it is unknown. Those who survived, most of them were also seriously injured.

Coupled with the toss of the slave gladiator rebel army, it is still unknown whether their family can survive, because most of their families are also big slave owners, and they are bound to be involved in this chaos.
