Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

"In the data compiled by the municipal government, the total number of farmland in Midloft and its territories is about 350,000 mu. Dry land is the majority, and the number of high-quality farmland close to water sources is extremely small.

The wheat yield per mu in the entire region was 150 catties last year, and it was even less last year, only about 130 catties. Counting soybeans and sugar beets, the grain yield per mu will only reach one hundred and fifty catties.

Using less than 3,000 tons of grain to feed a population of about 200,000 in the region is basically the level of half a catty of food per person per day.

The conditions of other forts and cities are basically the same. "

"More less.

I was ordered to investigate the living conditions of civilians in surrounding villages and towns and found that their living standards were extremely bad.

Learned from the detailed talks with the villagers. In the past two years, the lords of the Midlofts not only did not take out a grain of grain from their granaries to help the drought.

Instead, in the name of the suzerain state, he levied taxes on his own people far more than in previous years.

There is not much food left in the hands of the villagers.

Even in several villages, the seeds used for spring farming this year were borrowed from their lord at a high interest rate by the villagers.

Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid...

Except for a few villages near the water source, most villages rely on grass roots and bark to support them.

I have also visited those villages, and the conditions are also not very good. The creeks and small lakes are almost completely dry. "

"Speaking of the granary, this afternoon, the granary from Midloft's granary to Ozkailu officially set off.

I counted carefully, and there were seven carriages and twenty-four ox carts in total.

The amount of grain and grass transported is between 23-27 tons, which is more than the 20 tons I have previously inquired about. It is estimated that it is left for consumption on the road.

The number of escorts is about two hundred, most of them light infantry, and only a few shooters and cavalry. "

"According to an informant, this is the fourth time since this year that Midrov has been assigned to the suzerain country's food collection task, and the amount of food transported this time is still relatively small.

In other words, in Midloft alone, more than a hundred tons of grain has been transferred this year.

Obviously, Elland's big brother is not in a good situation in the new challenge. "

Lothar half leaned against the wall on the wide bed, listening to the reports of the three soldiers who had completed the reconnaissance mission sitting cross-legged in front of him.

Behind the soldier reporting the mission was the soldier who was sitting on the big bed and playing cards in a low voice.

Judging from the occasional exclaims they can't help but whisper, the atmosphere of the game is quite warm.

But after playing, the soldiers are also in armor and weapons on their sides.

As long as there is something going on, these warriors, who are always nervous, can go into battle at any time.

In this transnational reconnaissance, except for these ten who have accumulated enough experience to upgrade, Lothar did not bring any more people with him except for the ‘Southeast, Northwest’ rogue rebels.

If you encounter danger, these ten cavalrymen who can be upgraded to adventurers or rogue knights at any time can guarantee Lothar's breakout and leave in the siege of hundreds of enemies.

And once it escaped from the encirclement of large groups of enemies, in this era of backward information transmission, it is impossible to catch Lothar's whereabouts.

At least for Lothar himself, the security of this operation is still very guaranteed.

The scene of a dozen big men lying on a bed is somewhat subtle.

However, this is also helpless.

In the Principality of Airland, where the hierarchical concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the buildings of civilians can only be bungalows with basements. Only people with noble status are eligible to live in houses above the second floor.

Although the burning tavern was a precaution, a two-story small building that was basically vacant all the year round was built.

However, the only hostels for ordinary civilians are the chase shops and the cold basements with such mixed personnel.

After all, the construction area required for a low-rise bungalow is much more than that of a building.

It is possible to rent such an independent Chase shop, separated from other houses, as a temporary resting place.

It is already a very good choice for Lothar and others, who are ‘unable to produce’ aristocratic proof and have some ‘bad attempts’.

Only in such a place can we discuss these things, and the things that are not so good are not.

As for the question of whether someone will overheard.

Lothar felt that there were some lessons, and it was enough to learn them once.

Touching the beard that was half an inch long, Lothar groaned and asked.

"So, there should be a lot of grain in the granary in the city?"

This is indeed a problem. Lothar doesn't believe that between greed and the life and death of the people, the nobles of Elland will choose the untouchables in their eyes.

However, the question of why the intelligence is so detailed, and why there are informants not long after the first come, has not been mentioned a word.

In this country, as long as there is money, there are no secrets.

This has been verified in previous cities.

"In fact, there is not much food," the soldier assigned to the granary exploration mission replied. "According to the informant, there is only about 50 tons of food in the granary.

After deducting the huge consumption of the nobles in the city, the remaining point is enough to support a thousand-man army for a month.

It is said that if the task of raising grain and grass is arranged again, it can only be levied temporarily. "

"As for the question of where the food goes," the soldier shrugged his shoulders relaxedly, imitating his "informant". "Anyway, none of the "zier" falls in my pocket~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This look caused the other two people to laugh, and the meaning of the mockery was very clear.

Grain uses "grains", and money is "zier".

Lothar curled the corner of his mouth as well, and then asked, "So, is this batch of grain still in the city? If not, where did it go?"

"It should not be in the city, because when I asked this question, the informant answered very vaguely and his attitude became a lot more nervous.

I think there is a high probability that it was shipped abroad. "

"That's it," Lothar nodded, then dragged his chin into contemplation.

"Master Lothar, shall we go to the capital next?" Xu Shi was a little numb sitting cross-legged, and a soldier asked in a low voice.

Lothar shook his head in denial.

The sample of most of the Principality is enough to determine the national conditions of Irland, and it doesn't make much sense to go to the country or not.

"Then are we going to attack the food delivery team?

There are only two hundred light infantrymen, and one charge can make them escape. Afterwards, they can pretend to be robbers and looting. "

"The target of the blame has also been selected. It is a gang of horse bandits, which is fairly well-known. The habits are also similar to those collected.

If you raid late at night, you can't tell the truth from the fake. "

Ignoring your expectations in the eyes of a few militants, Lothar said decisively, "It's not necessary. Now that the terrible situation of Irland has been determined, there is no need to make any extra problems.

I am more concerned about the food that has been resold. In the next two days, everyone will look for news on this.

If there is no special discovery, we can go directly back to Perth. "

"As for the changes that may happen later, leave it to the Red Brotherhood to scout."
