　　Sarand South Seaport, Molo.

　　

　　 Fatty stood on a step of the harbor, looking helplessly into the distance, the sea became especially gentle and beautiful here, the sea was almost still like a mirror, calm and charming. The tide of the hot cold zone brought dense schools of fish freely shuttled in the sea here,

　　

　　 occasionally leave a series of small white waves on the sea. On the sparkling sea, fishing boats and merchant ships passing by on the calm sea, leaving long traces of white waves on the stern, a circle A circle of ripples drifted around, and then collided with other ripples, and more ripples were swayed, and it took a long time to dissipate.

　　

　　" My lord, the coast here is known as the Gold Coast." The port official next to Orus pointed to the white sails in the distance and said, "During the prosperous period of southern Salander, this is the most prestigious place in Salander. In the fish production area, the annual output of marine fish caught accounts for more than half of the total output. The coastline here is very straight, there are many scenic harbors, bustling towns everywhere, and busy businesses everywhere. In the shipyard, a large number of large yellow croaker and small yellow croaker gathered here due to the heat currents in the sea. There used to be eight huge fishing grounds, and at the time it had more than 2,000 fishing boats.

　　

　　 Orus’ voice stopped, and he said with a bit of emotion." Southern Salanders often say, here, you can catch a big yellow croaker and a small yellow croaker as soon as you reach out to the sea. There is no need to trawl. Although the large yellow croaker and the small yellow croaker are very worthless, for the fishermen here, every piece of fishing net that is pulled up will occasionally contain a lot of rare fishes, and this sea area is also the first time we arrived here. The place of residence, on the island north of Port Morro, is the most prosperous golden waterway in the south of Saland, which connects all the way from the coast to the central coast.

　　

　　 A large amount of raw materials and supplies were transported from the south to Sarand Kyoto in the middle. It is then further processed there, and then sold to various parts of Ikadiva further north. Especially the spices that are abundant on the east island, which were indispensable daily necessities for the nobles of Ikadiva at that time, and were very popular."

　　

　　 The port official’s voice stopped and he licked his lips dryly. He thought he had said it very well, but he still couldn’t see a hint of joy on the face of the newcomer. It made him feel very helpless. It was only 2 days ago that he learned that an inspector was coming from the north to check the production situation of the fishery this year.

　　

　　 The status of this adult is not very clear, but the group of black cavalry who came with it undoubtedly proves that this adult is not a Salander, this is a soldier. When he saw this inspector riding a horse, his back was as straight as a sword, although he was tired, Orus, who was born in Mamunuk in the south, felt this.

　　

　　冇"It should be for food for the army this winter!" Orus guessed that he was not someone who knew nothing about the situation on the mainland. It was just after the Falcon Empire gained control of the south, he was about the news. There is no sense of blocking, and in Molo at the southern trading port, even a small official who manages the fishing grounds like Orus can go to the merchant ship from time to time and hear one by one about the mainland of Ikadiva. According to the news, the Falcon Empire swept across the battlefield and was invincible. It destroyed several powerful kingdoms on continents one after another. The empire’s territory was unprecedentedly strong.

　　

　　Although as a Salander, Orus can also feel a sense of pride bursting out of his bones. To the empire, cheers! In the port tavern in Morro, you can hear the shouts of sailors from time to time, and every time Orus will unconsciously raise his glass to follow along,

　　

　　 Aulus is not a militant. Although he is a Mamunuk with the glory of his ancestors, he also wore impractical and gorgeous armor to show off to his companions, but the defeat in the southern war made him change After thinking about it, only after experiencing the history of being bullied will you know that being strong is not a decoration, but real iron and blood. That is a thing that is eager and undesirable,

　　

　　 Orus sometimes thinks this way. If Salander had half the power of the Falcon Empire at that time, he would not be bullied by the Normans to such a degree, the mountains and rivers fell, and hundreds of thousands of Salander southerners would be The Normandy army caught up with the warship like cattle,

　　

　　The ships that shipped slaves started from Morro, carrying the resentment and grief of the Salander full of ships, disappearing one by one into the sea forever,

　　

　　 This activity has been going on for 8 months. It is the eternal pain of the Salanders. At the time of the Molo Sea, you can see the corpses that were killed and discarded in the sea because of resistance from time to time. Orus occasionally also From the wind whizzing past the harbor, I heard the faint cry of crying.

　　

　　"The geographical location is good and the resources are abundant. Why didn’t the Southern Salland Navy set up a military port here?"

　　

　　 The fat man looked into the distance with piercing eyes, and asked the port administrator Orus. He came here this time to avoid his tutor Palschena. He also had another purpose. He wanted to check Sarander. The port of Morro in the south, once the birthplace of Salander’s maritime civilization, is geographically closer to the strategic goal of Normandy, and it has very rich marine resources. If a military port can be built here, it can be The occupied Antoros forms a closest connection point,

　　

　　"Yes" Orus said with a slight expression on his face, "There are many natural and fine harbors here~IndoMTL.com~ can dock large warships. At first, the Salander Navy had plans to build a naval port, but soon This plan was rejected!"

　　

　　"Oh, why? "The fat man asked in surprise, no matter what the situation is, this is the best outer seaport.

　　

　　 Orus said, "Molo has an irreparable shortcoming. It is very close to the open sea. Strong open sea storms often sweep the harbor. Even the large warships owned by the former Salander Navy often Wounded in the storm, not to mention the smaller warships,

　　

　　 And the mountains here are also short of wood for building warships. If you want to obtain wood, you must transport it from the remote central part. The cost is too high. The resources to build a warship here are enough to build two in the wood-rich central part. This is the main reason why the Navy gave up here."

　　

　　"Isn’t there a lot of wood in the south? Why is there a shortage of wood here?" The fat man looked around carefully and found that the mountains near the port are indeed bare. Even if there are trees, they are not strong enough to build ships.

　　

　　 "The sea breeze is too strong, and the trees are hard to form." Orus said with a wry smile. "The closest forest here is the most terrifying Black Forest. It is the exile area. Under normal circumstances, who Dare to go!"

　　

　　 "Black Forest!" The fat man snorted. He remembers that the Black Forest seems to be the territory of the Sukh people. (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass. Your support is my greatest motivation. )
