Lord: I Am Raising A Girl In The World Of Pain
Chapter 20 New Rules, Expanding The Army
Immediately afterwards, Field personally distributed the bounty to the guards, and the slaves burst into tears with excitement.
Can you not be excited? The slave who captured the most: Hammer, received 17 silver coins. This is wealth that many people have never accumulated in their lifetime.
Even Field's maid was jealous.
The others looked at the money in their hands with envy.
"I knew I would have participated when the Guard was formed."
"Damn it, it's such a pity that I wasn't chosen in the first place."
The person who was originally timid is now stamping his feet in anger.
"Listen, fellow citizens, I am now announcing the development plan of the Night Territory, which is related to the future of all of you."
With the temptation of money, the slaves' ears almost stood up, and they listened more seriously than the priest's prayers.
"First, if you want to escape from slavery, just earn a gold coin for me. Don't despair yet. I dare say that it is impossible for other lords to achieve it, but in the Night Territory, this is very simple. Look at the heroic hammer! One day! 17 silver coins!”
When Iron Hammer heard Field's praise, he puffed up his chest proudly and even stood on tiptoes. This was the first time since he was born that someone praised him instead of calling him a stupid ass or a fool.
What made him unbelievable was that it was the Lord's praise.
"Goddess, I'm really crazy. Today must be my lucky day." Tie Zhui felt everyone's jealous or envious eyes, and he was very proud.
The corner of Field's mouth rose: "It's still the same rule as before. Kill a rotten corpse and be rewarded with a silver coin. In addition, I will issue a series of tasks that do not require combat, such as farming, building walls, repairing or other things. I will give you a reward."
Slaves have no motivation, and Field urgently needs free people. Not only do free people not have to worry about their food, clothing, housing, and transportation, they can also collect taxes, and only free people have the motivation to learn skills.
A heated discussion broke out, and Field directly announced the second point.
"Second, the racial issue, I don't care about this, just don't violate the Basic Law. Although I am not a demi-human, my dear God's Chosen One is a demi-human, so put away your prejudices and look up at the death around you. "Zhiwu, don't kill everyone for some inexplicable reason." Field paused, "I personally like Asians. As long as they are hardworking and simple, and don't cause any trouble to me, they are my good leaders."
After these days of contact, Field felt that demi-humans were not like some races, only lazy and wreaking havoc everywhere, so he was happy to accept them.
Also, the beast-eared girl is really cute.
Asuna's eyes were red, and he felt a sense of respect and equality.
"Third, when you pray from now on, please bring Ashina's name."
This point has caused Field to struggle for a long time. He wants to build a more scientific territory.
But the book says that the power of the chosen one comes from faith and city prosperity. Now Ashina is a first-level chosen one. If she wants to advance to the second level, she needs a lot of faith power to receive orders.
Field is skeptical about this, because if faith increases power, the Papal State with believers all over the continent will be the most powerful existence, but this is not the case.
Today's Holy Griffin Empire has surpassed the Papal State in terms of high-end combat power, not to mention other powerful countries in the mainland.
"It's a pity that there is no control group, and there is no confidence to try and make mistakes casually. Let's try it based on the experience of previous people."
Later, Field recruited slave soldiers again. They were not paid, but they were responsible for three meals a day. The only source of income was killing enemies.
It was completely different from the last time when no one wanted to participate. It was a dark place with people squeezing in to sign up.
Field did not accept all orders, and pointed to the edge of the territory: "Those who want to be soldiers, run around my territory five times, and I will select the best based on performance. In addition, I am very democratic, you can abstain at any time."
A fleeting word made six people give up at once. These guys were all lazy people, and a piece of black bread every day would satisfy them.
"You can't even do basic obedience, and you look like you just want to make a living." Field shook his head, he didn't need such soldiers.
The others gritted their teeth and started running.
The quality of the newly joined slaves was much worse than that of the first batch. Most of them were weak and weak, and each one was as thin as a skeleton soldier. It was not until noon that the last one finished running.
Looking at the stumbling figure at the end, Field was not angry but happy: "Physical quality can be improved, but tenacious perseverance is difficult to obtain."
Eliminating the two guys who were clever and ran a few laps less, Field got twenty-three soldiers.
Field mobilized all the wolf demi-humans from the original thirty-man guard, mixed them with new recruits, and formed a twenty-man marauding cavalry team, while the rest formed a thirty-three-man guard.
If any nobles or knights come here, they will definitely be shocked by Field's behavior. It is crazy to train civilians into the army, let alone slaves. Stupid, ignorant, timid and cowardly, they are not even qualified to be cannon fodder and can barely be used to fill the enemy's moat.
Field actually organized them into groups and provided them with armor and equipment.
The steward looked at the "skeleton soldiers" he had recruited. Their mouths were so big they could swallow ostrich eggs. He was stunned by the lord's behavior. He found Field and said bluntly: "Sir, the previous thirty-man guard was already outrageous. Why did you expand the scale and give precious war horses to lowly slaves, and they will eat the precious war horses when they turn around!"
"Don't get excited Kaa, look at the performance of Lynx and Hammer, they are very good. It's thanks to them that we can get here and clear a foothold."
"This, this is just helplessness. Faced with the real test, they will definitely disperse in a hurry." Kaa pointed his finger at the sky and said vowedly, "A true soldier is born in a military family and has mastery of all aspects. In addition to military literacy and weapons skills, you must also have a noble character!"
Field rubbed his eyebrows, this guy must have been brainwashed by bards and novelists.
"What should we use? We are surrounded by monsters."
"Of course it's money to hire mercenaries and adventurers." Kaa replied matter-of-factly.
Mercenaries? These unreliable guys, Field is worried, they will betray themselves if they turn around. History has proven countless times that only warriors from the people can form an army with potential.
"Thank you for your suggestion, but I have to give them a chance." Field rolled his eyes and said in an unquestionable tone, "Kaa, give the soldiers extra meals, an extra egg for each person, and I will take them out in the afternoon. Clean up the monsters and they will show their value."
The manpower in the territory is scarce, and Field dare not take everyone away, otherwise it will be bad if the base is blown up.
