Du An’s eyes were full of anticipation.
"Moreover, just as the Lord said, he truly achieved letting us not go hungry."
"The Lord is indeed an extraordinary Lord!"
Dorian had no words but nodded in agreent.
As one of the first recruited guard soldiers by Master Lynn, he almost witnessed the entire developnt process of the territory.
Especially in military prowess.
Who would have thought that the territory, which initially had only a ten-man guard squad, could develop into a force of four thousand soldiers?
From heavy cavalry, light cavalry, heavy infantry, and archers, and more.
Capable of charge, close combat, and ranged attack ans.
Such strength.
Although not comparable to so Great Lords.
But relying on walls like mountain forest passes, or the Manor Castle.
Is enough to hold out for a long ti, without being breached!
Relying on planting as the primary farming technique, the yield per acre of crops is extrely limited.
The number of soldiers held by most Manor Lords is not many.
Even if so Manor Lords have hundreds of soldiers.
They often farm during busy seasons and train during leisure tis.
Thus, ensuring the full use of labor.
To cultivate a qualified soldier is extrely difficult.
Ordinary soldiers are like this.
Not to ntion fully ard soldiers out of production.
However!
Master Lynn stubbornly developed their ten-man guard squad to its current scale.
Moreover, nearly achieving full armant!
Wearing armor and holding iron weapons.
Even as light cavalry, they are riding horses!
Though they don’t compare to the heavy cavalry riding the warhorses of the Badan Empire.
These ordinary horses are enough for them, dressed in composite armor, to perform charge combat!
Of course.
Dorian also understands.
Master Lynn was able to develop the military strength because he discovered three mines in the territory.
Excavate salt mines, produce fine salt, for trade and exchange for other goods.
Dig coal mines to use as fuel for various industries in the territory.
Extract iron ore, slt iron, forging armor.
Finding three mineral deposits simultaneously in a barren territory seems a bit incredible.
But it coincidentally illustrates Master Lynn’s ability.
Discovering resources, organizing extraction, to be used in the territory’s developnt and construction!
Dorian feels.
Even if Master Lynn were replaced by another Lord, that Lord would never, in such forging ti, plan and develop that territory to its current depth.
Be aware.
Master Lynn’s territory now not only has tens of thousands of labor forces, vast farmland, nurous ard soldiers!
There are also military rit promotion systems, Territorial Law, hospitals, schools, courts, canteens...
Whether in terms of law or livelihood, real implentation has been carried out.
It could even be said without exaggeration, Master Lynn solved their worries.
Even if one day war occurs, as soldiers, they fall in battle.
Master Lynn will take good care of their families!
That’s why, whenever Master Lynn recruits soldiers, all the townsn are eager to try.
Master Lynn created a ho where they can live happily and stably.
And they must constantly strive for this ho.
Even if they ultimately lose their lives, it will be worth it!
A night breeze laced with coolness gently blew by.
Penetrating through the gaps of the armor plates in the composite armor, entering his armor, making Dorian’s sowhat restless heart gradually calm.
Pushing down the thoughts in his mind, Dorian’s gaze continued to survey his surroundings.
In their vigilant patrol, the night grew deeper.
Except for the strange noises incessantly made by small beasts in the grass.
The rustling sounds of the night breeze blowing over the crop plants.
Occasionally shrill calls of strange birds from distant forests.
No other disturbances were heard.
Just when Dorian was about to withdraw his gaze, his eyes suddenly widened.
His head turned, staring directly several ters ahead.
Du An, next to him due to the close distance, noticed Dorian’s actions.
Du An asked in confusion: "Captain Dorian, you..."
He hadn’t finished speaking.
Dorian directly extended a finger towards him.
Seeing this, Du An furrowed his brows slightly and promptly closed his mouth.
Not only him.
The three soldiers behind them displayed expressions of confusion.
Under Dorian’s lead, the four urged their horses forward.
But clearly, Dorian had discovered sothing.
His expression was serious, unknown since when his left hand began holding the reins, while his right hand grasped the grip of the Longsword at his waist!
The four imdiately thought of sothing, gripping the sword handle with their right hand.
After the horses walked a few ters, Dorian reined them in.
Sitting on horseback, Dorian stared directly at the unharvested barley field ahead.
Originally supposed to be a flat barley field.
But now there appeared traces of fallen plants.
Adding to the significant footprints on the trampled ground...
Dorian’s brows knitted tightly, imdiately and solemnly spoke to Du An.
"Quickly return to town and inform Lord Earl, there is suspected espionage entering Morgan Town!"
"Ask him to organize personnel imdiately for a night search around the town."
Du An naturally also saw the traces tramped in the barley field.
Upon hearing Dorian’s low words, his expression intensified and responded promptly.
