The Amber Sword: Act 34 Expansion (15)
The thirty-fourth expansion (fifteen)
The Shavlund silver mine originates from the rich silver reserve under Grahár Mountain. This vein extends from Caranga Mountain Range to Trentheim, which is actually only a very small part of Black Forest, but it is also enough to benefit Aouine.
In fact, the real silver mine is the Badranburg on the south bank of Green Lake east of Grahár Mountain. As for the silver mine in Shavrund, there is only a little light on the end of this vein.
The backcountry of Trentheim is not a notorious --
"Amandina, let's talk about Schafflund." Brando asked.
damsel Heiyouyou's eyes lightened slightly. Lord Thane is about to operate on the silver mine? She immediately replied: "Lord Thane, Schafflund has always been one of the most important sources of income in the Trentheim region; as early as Year of Cave Beast, a predecessor of the then Thane built a fort here to mine and transport silver, but then, Slowly forming today's town of Schafflund. "
"Year of Cave Beast," Brando converted in his heart: "That was almost thirty years ago?"
Amandina nodded: "Now the chief executive of this mining town is composed of an executive deputy and a superintendent, but I actually found that these two people are not responsible for Grudin, but are directly appointed and removed by Count of Radnor. Therefore, although this silver mine will produce nearly 15 tons of silver each year, our Lord Baron can really get very little. "
"Grudin is a really good Thane," Brando thought, could not help but sympathize with this poor worm. He smiled slightly: "So, this is for me to move the cheese of Count of Radnor, Amandina."
The girl also smiled: "Isn't already moved, Lord Thane."
Brando turned back and saw that Jutta's gaze also came over here; he keenly noticed that although the necessary restraint was still maintained on female mercenary commander's face, already in the green eyes passed through a trace of anxiety.
Seeing that Fern and Kalun, who were born with them, have been appointed, Jutta does not want the one's own people to lose the last benefit in this group, or even be sold. Although this young Thane looks kind, but she has dealt with noble, big and small, and keeps the necessary contempt and doubt for these guys. --, even if it is a little bit, she knows these people. How despicable to turn your face.
Jutta asked with a slightly hoarse voice: "Lord Thane, please let me occupy Shavrund! I know the situation there, but mine usually only has more than a hundred soldiers stationed," she held down the one's own chest with her hand. "It's more than enough for me and my people to occupy this place."
But Brando said: "But the town of Shavrund is too close to Pallas. I am afraid that another of our jazz lords will be embarrassed. Even if we attack, we will not be able to control it for a while."
female mercenary commander silently.
"Can't think of a way to do this? Troglodyte can't be used?" Amandina asked, "Can't believe them?"
I ca n’t believe it, Brando thought. He took the oath that *** Tajiv made to Divine Spirit, and those Troglodyte categorically did not dare to violate this vow publicly.
But the occupation of Shavrund was for mining. If Pallas harassed from time to time, no one would be able to bear it.
"How big is the food gap?" he asked.
"It's still 17,000 bushels." damsel answered in one gulp.
Most of the Amber Sword units use English units, and they are still used in this world. This makes Brando extremely uncomfortable, but in terms of grains, one bushel is about 27 kilograms. He probably converted it and found that the food gap Close to half a million kilograms, this is not a small number.
"Count on us, how long can the territory support according to the grain stored in Fir City?"
Amandina frowned slightly: "Lord Thane, if only calculated from the data, can support for two months. But considering that there are still some grains in the territory that are not counted, it will not exceed three months at the latest."
"Is there a gap of nearly two months?"
The girl nodded.
Brando thought for a while, "Then it doesn't matter, first recruit soldiers from thrall as usual, as well as Bolu land, people, money, you all give him. Jutta and Fern are the same -- but Magicite workshop first Hold on. "
Amandina nodded again, she just mentioned it, after all, Trentheim does not produce amber stone.
"The Romaine's plan will also be put behind." Brando also said.
The voice of Romaine's came from the back hall, "This nature, Brando, it doesn't make sense to do those now." It sounds that the miss merchant is not frustrated by it.
"In addition, at least you must ensure that the next battle will be continued. As for how much budget to keep, you can determine for yourself. Of course, you understand that the only requirement is not to let us all be driven to Black Forest."
This sentence made a few girls present unable to help but smile.
But Amandina is on the forehead. To be honest, she really wants to be rushed to Black Forest now. Of course, this is just thinking about forget it/that's all, "Master, what can you do?" raises head, she was keenly aware of the Brando's intention.
"Of course it's still silver mine," Brando smiled. "So there's no reason to keep a big piece of cheese next to us, isn't it?"
"But --?"
But what did Medissa already think, "You mean, change it another way, Lord Thane?" The Silver Elf Princess raises head, a silver light flashed in his silver eyes, and his brows raised slightly.
Brando looked at her with appreciation: "Yes, you and I will take a trip with Scarlett in person. We will meet Count of Radnor's men." He turned to Jutta and said, "Jutta Young Lady, you also come to --"
As soon as Jutta, she immediately responded to raises head: "Are you going to bring someone?"
"Of course, but not too much," Brando thought for a moment: "Twenty or thirty people are enough."
female mercenary commander nodded -- silently, but then felt a bit inexplicably strange, the other party was obviously much younger than her, but she was always unconsciously short before talking; this is not just a reason for identity -- this The young Thane seems to have a special temperament, allowing him to maintain a natural advantage in front of anyone.
She is not sure, but she subconsciously thinks that this youngster may be the same when she meets His Majesty the King. Although this idea is ridiculous, Jutta subconsciously told itself that it was right.
But these are not important, Brando's appointment finally made her sighed in relief. The female mercenary commander acted immediately, said goodbye to Brando and called for manpower.
Amandina watched the woman leave, "Are I going to go together?" The noble young lady turned her head and asked, she was obviously a little reluctant, after all, she just settled down after all, she is not the one who likes to run around people.
"You stay." Brando saw her reluctance and replied: "By the way, help me organize a plan."
"What plan?"
"Plan for Fir City reconstruction."
“Ah？ "The girl's eyes are widened.
Brando knew she would be surprised, but this was one of his original plans. In his plan, the tragedy of history will not be allowed to repeat, but if His Highness Princess Gryphine does not marry Duke of Anlieke, then the army of royalist will inevitably face defeat in the rewritten history. -- At that time, the northern digital Duke and the prince ’s coalition will be swept away. under.
Brando hopes that by that time, the Fir City of the new building will be enough to be the ultimate fortress that can block this terrible front. It will keep the last territory of Aouine south of Fir Tree Barony, --, especially Valhalla, which is his hope for a comeback in the future.
In addition to this reason, Fir City itself is also very advantageous. It is near the sea to the west and connects to the Shavrend silver mine to the east. In the future, it will become the central area connecting Trentheim and 'Valhalla'. The importance of this is self-evident.
But because of the existence of Valhalla, Fir City is not the ideal capital. In the Brando's plan, the future capital of Aouine is necessarily Valhalla. But it is more than enough as a hub for Valhalla's outward contact and the last solid barrier.
The Fir City in the mind of Brando must eventually be a fortress of building, but it is not possible here, and another site must be selected.
From time to time, he already instructed Tajiv and his Troglodyte to go north to find a location suitable for the fortress. The ideal location must not only have enough space to accommodate this future giant fortress, but also must be easy to defend Offensive.
The Gus River is a large hill to the north. Brando thinks that using Troglodyte's ability to find a suitable place should not be a problem. These Underground visitors are not good at siege, but this does not prevent them from becoming the best fortress in the Gorgon Ravine underground.
He withdrew his thoughts and saw Amandina's confused eyes, and replied: "Don't be so surprised, this thing doesn't happen overnight. We have a year to two years, this is just a long-term plan. "
Building a fortress in a year or two may sound strange in the real world. But in Vaunde, it is not a nightmare. With the help of Magic, some things are easier than expected.
Of course, it will be difficult to build a complete city in one or two years, but if it is just taking shape, it is more than enough.
"What shall I do?" Amandina heard the news or breathed in gently, building a city, this is not a trivial matter. There are too many things involved, and for the first time she has doubts about whether she can do well.
"it doesn't matter, you can observe more Fir City, and think back to everything you saw in Bruglas. See how the predecessors did it, then think about what we need."
The new Fir City will be a fortress, Brando emphasized this point, and then he continued: "In addition, Ciel should help you. Although he is a wizard, most of the wizard came out as a book stack. Guys, the simple engineering knowledge should not be difficult for these people -- "
