Randy, who was talking and laughing with her father just now, immediately turned her head when she heard the voice, and found that it was the lord who came to her, and she couldn't help feeling a little nervous again.

The little girl who was not a few years older than her was so nervous that the corners of Xue Li's lips could not help but curl upwards, but she was still quite curious about what the little girl was talking about again.

"I asked my father, can I buy a beautiful dress for me when I go home this time, and my father agreed, and said that this time, sir, your project is paid for, and he plans to buy some cotton cloth and make some winter clothes for me. Wear it with my brothers."

Winter, Shirley has also heard that the winter here is extremely cold, and many families encounter difficulties during the winter every year, especially in heavy snow, many families do not even go out all day, wrapped in quilts .As for heating, we can only rely on the wood stored in autumn to persist.If the preparations are not sufficient, the whole family can only hug together to keep warm this winter.

It seems that if you want your subjects to live a good life, you still have a lot of things to do.But these depend on your luck, such as the coal stove for heating.At that time, work hard to make money, install it for every family, and then find some coal mines, which can basically solve the winter problem.As for the cotton clothes to wear, as long as the people's income is increased and trade routes opened up, enough cotton should be brought in.

No way, although she has a high-yielding grain now, and her troops don't need much food supply, but it's not the time to turn arable land into cash crops, let alone talk about cash crops that can be turned into money, and then buy something food.

This kind of thing was already played by the ancestors during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period. If you don’t grow food, as long as the hostile forces block the trade route in the future, it is equivalent to cutting off her food, and the lack of food supply is enough for her entire life. Territory's economy collapsed.

After waving goodbye to Randy, Shirley and Fuya returned to the camp, but at this time, she had already started thinking about how to open up trade routes and develop her own economy.

The Orcs' Southward Invasion: Chapter 13 Naval Battle (two chapters published together)

Autumn is a season of harvest, and it is also a season of sowing hope for the next year. However, in this world, on the land in the north, there is a thick layer of shadows that hang over people's heads.

"Sowing should be postponed for a while? Why?" Listening to Antruth's report, Shirley was a little puzzled. According to the normal sowing time, after harvesting, it was almost time to sow again, not to mention those farmers They are all planted in rotation.Why is there such a thing as delaying planting?

"If it is too late, it will catch up with winter, when the cold weather will have a great impact on planting."

It's not that Shirley disagrees, but that the weather has a great impact on farming. If one is not careful, it is likely to reduce the harvest of the first season of the second year a lot.

What my lady said made Antruth shake his head with a wry smile, and then he continued: "Miss, have you forgotten that there will be a large number of orcs going south this year? ..."

"Huh? The orcs still want to trample on my fields and destroy my agriculture? How is this possible? Absolutely not."

Shirley stared wide-eyed at the table. She had only seen the southward migration of the northern nomads in history books before, and most of the tragic scenes were written.But when she got here, she suddenly discovered that behind those history books were the serious disasters for the people in the north.

"Tell them, don't worry about those orcs, my troops are enough to stop the enemy."

There are a large number of naval warships in the Earl of Ordos, which are enough to block the orcs' naval landing.And from other territories to detour to the Earl of Ordos, the number of people must not be too many.Besides, there are tens of thousands of troops there, some of which are elite troops like the Beiwei Army, so there is nothing to worry about.

As for her own side, she will personally lead the troops there. There are [-] musket guards, so why should she be afraid of those orc legions?

I was trying to persuade my lady not to be too confident. After all, the fighting power of the orcs is extremely powerful. They are naturally stronger than the human races. In terms of technology, look at the warships of the goblins. They are rampant in the northern seas. Outside of warships, they couldn't find any opponents.

Of course, not only warships, but also other technologies. It is not without reason that the goblin clan can rank second only to the lion clan on the side of the orcs who value personal strength.

"I know you can't underestimate the orcs, but at the same time, I also believe in myself. I have carefully looked at the southward route of the orcs. Because we are located in a mountainous area and it is an extremely barren place, the orcs rarely pay attention to it. Aalborg."

In order to strengthen the credibility of her words, Shirley also got up and took out a map from the scroll bucket beside her and opened it.Although crude, the basic terrain and location can still be distinguished.

"You see, the orcs will choose to land here every time. Of course, my father will lead troops to launch the first attack on the beach every year, using the advantages of the terrain to weaken the orcs' strength, and then slowly retreat to Orcs. Fort, the strength of the orcs was also weakened along the way. When they reached the gate of Aalborg, they almost lost their advantage in strength. They were unable to attack the city again, so every year these orcs would pack up the food they had stolen before the gate of Aalborg After that, choose to evacuate."

Regarding her father's tactics, Shirley had to admire, kiting the enemy along the way, if she had a strong command ability, it would be impossible to command such a harassing tactic.It's just a pity that when she came here, this general with strong commanding ability had already been killed.

As for the person who killed him, she still hasn't found it. The thief only said that he was a magician, but where to find the magician, she beat and ran away the most suspected person, Earl Theodos She went to the Principality of Friedland to seek asylum, but she still didn't see the magician, which made Shirley feel very strange.

As for the other lords, she has also investigated. Except for Earl Theodos who has been here for several generations, the others have only come here for one or two generations.It is simply impossible to have enough money to support a magician.

He was thinking about his father's matter in his mind, but he didn't stop talking, "Look here, this depression is the battlefield I'm looking for, and it just forms a pocket with the mountains on the coast. As long as the orcs land, they will enter our land. Territory, we must go to this depression."

"Miss, are you planning to fight the enemy in this depression?"

3000 human troops, against the orc troops, it's okay if the number of orcs is small, but if there are many, even 500 people, the 3000 human troops can be defeated.

Antruth, who is well aware of the fighting power of the orc army, will naturally not let his lady be self-willed in this kind of thing. This is a bad thing, and the entire territory will fall.

"Naturally, the decisive battle is here. It has been raining for several days in a row, and the depression is even more muddy. Every time the orcs attack us, they mainly attack us with goblins, accompanied by some centaur warriors. The muddy ground will delay the centaur's impact, and with our spears and antlers at the ready, I believe the orc cavalry will suffer their worst defeat here."

Looking at the self-confidence of his young lady who doesn't know where it comes from, Antrus can't laugh or cry. Isn't there just three thousand musket guards? stick?It's not that he said that just that little weapon is not qualified in front of the orcs.

"Miss, I still suggest that you follow the previous lord's tactics, I think..."

"Impossible, I can't command that kind of difficult tactics at all, and don't even try to say that you can, I have read the records, and my father personally commanded when commanding, and those elites who followed him, They were all scattered when they were fighting bandits, and they could no longer form combat power at all."

This blocked all my words, when will my lady be blocked at both ends?Andrews was surprised by Shirley's growth, but he still couldn't accept it if he was asked to change tactics.

"In any case, we have the right time, place and people in this battle. It is impossible to lose. It is absolutely impossible to lose."

This confident little expression, although very cute, made Antruth unable to laugh at all. He even felt that he was going to run away with his young lady in the future.

"This time is a decisive battle. One battle will determine the world. Miss, are you really putting all your cards on the table?"

"That's not necessary. Don't stud once at this time, why should we wait for the enemy to slow down and trouble me? We can't afford to lose, not even once."

What Shirley said in a heavy tone also silenced Andrews. He naturally understood what the crisis before them was.Lack of talents. As a powerful lord, there are very few knights who can stand on their own. Many capable people are not even willing to come here, because in their eyes, the Phoenix family is not a real noble, just a It's just a small nouveau riche who has just started.

Once it fails, the prestige established before will disappear. When the military strength plummets, the surrounding lords will swarm up like hungry wolves and eat them up.

"Miss, since this is the case, we should be more careful, we can't..."

If the enemy breaks into my territory, I can't crush them, so what qualifications do I have to be a nobleman and their lord.Antruth, I can promise you many things, but I have made up my mind on this one.

The girl's determined look shot out from her wide-open eyes. She has already decided on this battle.Don't talk about being stable, and don't talk about protracted warfare. She doesn't think that her troops can fight the enemy for a long time. On the contrary, she feels that she can definitely win the battle quickly.

The most important thing was that winter was about to start, and the winter wheat needed to be sown as soon as possible. If those orcs delayed the planting period, she would even want to rush to the other side of the sea and kill the orcs.

At this time, emergency mobilization also began on the other side of the sea, and one after another transport ships, under the escort of warships, headed for the human continent in the south.A large number of warships seem to cover the sky and the earth.The huge fleet is even more frightening.

"Oh, let's go, let's go to those weak human races in the south."

Waving an iron bar with iron thorns, a lion warrior howled and shouted from the watchtower of the battleship. They were a troop carrier heading for Ordosburg.The goal this time is very simple, that is to conquer Ordosburg and take away the piles of food and money inside.

"Get off me, that's the navigator's watchtower, not where you play around on it, now, immediately, immediately get off me."

"Oh, what's there to worry about? As for those weak bugs of the human race, they still dare to go out to sea and fight with us. Look at the warships around them. Not to mention the catapults and bed crossbows on them, even if they bump into them, they will be destroyed. The ship was smashed."

Although the lion-human warrior standing on the top said so, he still came down from the observation deck in a desperate manner, and then watched a nimble goblin crawl towards the observation deck quickly.

"The watchtower is the highest point of the ship. Not only to observe the enemy's situation, but also to observe the surrounding sea area and determine the sailing route. It is not as simple as you think. If you dare to go up and mess around next time, don't blame me for throwing you out."

It was the orc general who was speaking this time, and this lion-human warrior was his youngest son. The purpose of bringing him out this time was to allow him to accumulate military merits, at least to be able to find a place in the army in the future. Official position.

"I see, it's not the first time I go, so I don't need to be so careful. When I pass by later, I must catch a few human women and enjoy it."

It is said that the meat of human women is tender. I don't know if it is as tender as the pheasant caught in the stomach.

"You kid, you don't know why you came out this time, what do you want to enjoy, follow me to those few battles, and then gain a firm foothold in the army, that's the best..."

"Enemy..."

There was a shrill cry, and then the alarm bell at the back of the ship rang six times in a row. That was the number of enemy ships, but the orcs never expected that the human race would dare to come here to make trouble with only six warships.

Under the binoculars, a fleet of more than a dozen orcs consisting of transport ships and warships rushed towards this side. Li Huamei stretched out her hand and felt the direction of the wind, and immediately gave an order.

"Turn the rudder to the left, aim the muzzle at the enemy, and shoot the enemy first. Be careful not to hit the transport ship, and attack the battleship first."

There is still a long distance from the land. At this time, as long as the enemy's warship is defeated, the troop carrier will be the target, and they can do whatever they want.

And at this time, on the orc warship, a shrill "enemy attack" spread across the entire deck, which also made the orcs who were leisurely uttered a taunt.

Six battleships, all of which are huge battleships made of solid wood, with several huge sails on them, are rushing towards them with the wind.

"Is that a human battleship?" The huge ship had already surpassed their imagination, and they saw the opponent approaching from a long distance away.

"Look, did those warships of the human race have an accident, and they turned the ship sideways before the battle. Look, what's the use, this happened before the war started. In order not to embarrass them too much, we Just mercifully tear them apart."

"Isn't that necessary? You see, the warships behind us are all starting to rush forward one by one. Just wait for the enemy's warships to approach and give them a few big stones to let them know what it is..."

Boom boom boom. . .The continuous sound of gunfire interrupted the excited orcs. Looking at the sawdust flying in the sky, the orcs forgot the previous excitement. They couldn't imagine that this battle would start like this.

It was agreed that the boulder was crushing the top, and the enemy ship was smashed into pieces. Why is it that the warships on my own side were bombed with debris all over the sky? There were even a huge hole in the bottom of two warships, and a large amount of sea water poured into the boat.

"What kind of attack is this? It's so far away. How did they come here? Also, why did the explosion happen. What kind of warship is this?"

At this time, the commander of the fleet was already bombarded. Seeing that his warship hadn't fired according to the plan, it had already been bombed into chaos by the enemy.Especially the orc warriors on the ship, some of them were blown up and flew several meters before they even made a move.Some were even blown up and fell into the sea.

"This accuracy is still not good. After two rounds of fighting, two warships were sunk. It still needs more practice. Immediately let all the warships move forward and circle around the enemy ship. Avoid the enemy's attack, give I bombed as I moved."

The orcs were stunned, but Li Huamei was still a little dissatisfied. Seeing that the orc warships were about to come across, Li Huamei didn't give the opponent any chance, and took advantage of the speed of her sailing battleships to quickly get out of the battle and avoid the enemy's attack again. , continue to use the range advantage to attack the enemy's warship.

Just turning the battleship around, the orcs, who were covered by enemy artillery fire, were full of anger and wanted to vent all the anger of being crushed and beaten. The strong orc warriors put large stones on the trebuchet on the side of the ship, and the goblins also threw The bed crossbow is launched.They are angry, so they will use all their strength to revenge.

Then, in their field of vision, the six battleships slipped away at a speed that they couldn't even imagine.Not to mention that, they still fired while walking, and one solid round bullet after another hit their boat.Let the planks of the boat fly in all directions again.

"What kind of ship is this? Hit, hit, hit it."

My side has not yet entered the attack range, the other side has already started bombing, my side has finally entered, the opponent's speed is faster than they thought, chasing, can't catch up, hit, can't hit, this is a P ah.Looking at the boulder beside him, an orc warrior angrily smashed it hard.Of course, it is inevitable to jump with your fists in your hands.

"The human race is a bunch of cowards, they dare not fight us for real..."

Before he finished speaking, the roaring orc saw not far away, an orc who was pushing a bed crossbow was blasted into the air by a cannonball, and this is basically what a person looks like—a beast) (human. Horror Next, I dare not say a word more in the following words.

"One ship, two ships, three ships, tsk tsk, this fight is really fun. Now the three warships in the back turn their guns and hit those troop carriers hard. As for those warships, let them go to the sea together. Hey bastard."

Li Huamei, who put the telescope in her palm and put it away, had a look of joy after the war on her face.The orcs here in Ordosburg have been overthrown by her alone, and it depends on the detours on land.

Hey, it's Friday.Hey hey.

Beasts Invasion South: Chapter 14 Beasts Going South (two chapters co-published) (including testimonials on shelves))

"Land, there is land ahead, oh oh oh oh oh...we can go ashore soon."

On the transport ship, one after another orcs who had already been standing on the deck let out a neat roar after hearing the shouts from the orcs on the watchtower.

At the bow of the ship, amidst the orcs roaring again and again, Sprad, the centaur general, looked calmly at the land that had gradually revealed its outline ahead.This year is his fifth year in Aalborg.

Just like in previous years, the barren place of Aalborg was not a key target of the orcs at all. Just like in previous years, they sent a large number of troops to attack the various territories of the human race on the southern mainland, and here, they were the only ones. Two troop carriers, a total of [-] soldiers.

The werewolf clan and the two-headed ogre clan attacked several independent territories of the human race along the land and through the North Sea Corridor.And they, along the coastline, landed through the navy, using the high-speed movement ability of their centaur race, quickly conquered the defense line of the human race, and caught them by surprise.

Let them quickly capture a large area of ​​territory before they can react, and then naturally plunder all the food and finances from various places to their respective tribes.

Because every time the tribes were plundered, the plundered finances and food would not be handed over, so no one in Aalborg was willing to come, and he wanted to meet his biggest opponent.Every time the young lord used his excellent commanding ability to force him to retreat under the city after reaching the city.

Although he is not satisfied with the results every time, it is also a great joy in life to be able to have a hearty fight with a comparable opponent.

"I don't know what kind of 'surprise' he will give me this time." Sprad stared closely at the coastline, getting closer and closer, and soon he could feel the relationship between iron and fire again. romantic.

However, the enemy he was expecting did not appear in the shallows according to his previous experience. Looking at the quiet coastline, Sprad did not know how to describe his heart at this moment.

It was as if a drop of water fell into the hot oil, and he became excited in an instant. If the enemy did not appear here, then Aalborg must have prepared new tactics.Excited, bloodthirsty excited, the general couldn't help but want to lead his troops to land immediately.

It didn't make Sprad wait too long, and soon the two troop carriers put down the landing boats, and sent all the two thousand soldiers on land to the land.

On land, Aalborg had already made preparations for the battle, and [-] musket guards had already waited behind the wooden fence, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

The ground that had just been hit by the rain was even more muddy at this time. The musketeers held the guns in their hands calmly at this time. They were dressed in gorgeous military uniforms and looked indifferently at the orc army that was gradually gathering in the distance. .

The cavalry unit composed of centaurs and the infantry unit composed of goblins are not well-equipped, but in terms of military appearance, the military appearance of the centaur tribe is very neat. It can be seen that the general must be a powerful general .

As for the goblins, they were just a bunch of mobs without any effective organization at all. I am afraid that after the battle started, they would be like the mobs, and Wu Yangyang would charge at that time.

Holding the binoculars, Shirley looked at the orc legions that were constantly gathering in the distance. This was the first time she had seen the orcs in this world so intuitively.

Contrary to what she thought, although the centaurs have the body of a centaur and have the limbs of a horse, their faces are different from those of the human race, but a human-like face covered with animal hair, and their strong upper body is even more so. With a long lance.

It was nothing like the centaurs in the Chronicles of Narnia she had imagined.It is also different from the centaurs in some games.I feel a little lost in my heart, and as for the san value, it also dropped a little in the loss.

The goblin was pretty much the same as she thought, ugly, short, and holding a wooden stick, it was a replica of the goblin in her impression.Watching them wait for the follow-up troops to gather, while frantically jumping and hitting the ground with wooden sticks.Shirley really wanted to give them a few shots.

Sprad also came to this depression at this time, looking at the human soldiers who were already waiting in front of them and hiding behind the wooden fence and antlers.Wherever he looked, he couldn't see the figure of the opponent.But the flag doesn't change anything.

"A new method is needed? I plan to use the terrain to fight a defensive battle with me, oh, naive." I really thought that those wooden fences and antlers could block the charge of their centaur cavalry.

Raising his hand, he signaled for the vanguard of the goblins to charge first. He really wanted to see if there were any other traps along the way. After all, it had just rained, so they couldn't see any changes on the ground, so be careful and let the goblins first The Brins are on the road.Then start charging again.

He originally thought that these goblins could rush to the enemy's wooden fence and confuse the enemy's troops, but he heard a burst of bang bang bang.As the sounds started, what he saw was the goblins falling one by one.

Howling in pain, they were completely knocked down to the ground as they did not expect to have a hand-to-hand encounter with the enemy.

What kind of attack was that? Sprad had never encountered it before. Frowning, he let the goblins attack again, but just like before, the fallen goblins couldn't even reach the edge of the wooden fence. Can't even touch it.

Like Sprad, Andrews was also shocked by this powerful fighting power, he had no idea that the battle would unfold like this.The Musketeers behind the wooden fence were divided into three waves, the first wave fired, the second wave prepared, the third wave reloaded, and then they took turns firing when the enemy attacked.The dense firepower made the goblins rushing out of the narrow passage before they could disperse and were killed on the ground.

Even if he didn't die immediately, with that kind of injury, it doesn't matter if he returns to the beast clan alive, or he can only wait to die, which is worse than dying on the spot.

"Miss, what kind of attack is this?" It's not the first time Antruth has seen musketeers firing. After all, dragoons are also a type of musketeers, but such intensive fire and terrifying firepower made him unacceptable for a while. .

"It's right in front of you. This is the attack of the Musketeers. Don't worry, there will be a bigger one in a while. Don't be scared by then."

Even before the cannon was fired, I couldn't accept it. What should I do when the cannon fires.Put the binoculars in front of your eyes again, and watch the movements of the enemy above.The corners of the lips could not help but bend slightly upwards into a small arc.
