Carry a Ride-and-slash System with You

The Vicia marksman and two Nord royal guards led the team to set out on the journey after repairing with the soldiers. Geralt said to a cavalry: "Bring a few people to form a scout team and help them detect the enemy's situation."

"Woodland and mountains are not suitable for cavalry combat. You don't need to take part in the battle with your scout team, you are only responsible for delivering messages."

The cavalry nodded yes, and selected a few mercenary riders to keep up with the team of Vicya marksmen and Nord royal guards.

Watching the bandits go away with confidence, Geralt didn't have much to worry about. The combat experience of the soldiers, the physical fitness of ordinary soldiers, and the high-quality armor that Geralt spent a lot of money on. Combination of these things Together, if he still can't deal with some gangsters who are kings of the mountain, Geralt should put out the flame called ambition in his heart as soon as possible.

Not paying attention to the disappearing back of the bandit squad, Geralt continued to build a home with the soldiers.

---------------------------------------------

Time just passed by quietly, and a month passed without paying attention.

The weather is getting colder and colder, but fortunately, one after another wooden houses have been erected in the open space cleared by Geralt and others in the forest, bringing warmth to the soldiers in the cold night, and the cold-proof materials have always been in Geralt and Harry. Within the scope of consideration, they bought it early in the royal city, and the soldiers in thick leather coats were bloated and busy in the forest.

The team that went out to suppress the bandits also went out for more than a month. Fortunately, every few days, there are scouts composed of cavalry to bring back news. In addition, the system panel pops up from time to time to increase the experience, so that Geralt knows the bandit suppression. The team is all right.

However, because of the change in the weather, Geralt also asked the scouts who came back to deliver the news to give orders to the soldiers to return. In a few days, the soldiers who went out to fight the bandits should return.

In the open space in the forest, a center point was selected. This is where Geralt built the castle, or the council hall. However, there is no construction here for the time being. It is just a frame to select the range. I will talk about it later. Four directions were drawn and straight roads were drawn. The wooden houses where the soldiers lived were arranged in a circle around the central point and guarded the council hall.

The houses to be built in the future can be built in sequence. The blacksmith shop is built at the back of the wooden house, and the fire is already lit. The charcoal burned from the local materials is burning brightly in the stove. The blacksmiths Ahsoka and Aiden are busy. As he returned the damaged weapons and seized defective products on the battlefield to the furnace for rebuilding, the clanging sound could be heard incessantly, but Geralt's ears were buzzing after listening to it for a long time, and he simply left the blacksmith shop.

Harry was called. Now Harry is in charge of the distribution and coordination of supplies in the territory, so Geralt asked directly, "How much food do we have now?"

Harry thought for a while and said, "You asked this question too early, sir, we have prepared enough for 300 people to eat for two years, and we still have a lot of jerky, which can be continuously caught from the river. , these foods are enough to keep us eating longer, so don’t worry, adults.” (Don’t worry, gentlemen.)

Geralt nodded and said, "Winter wheat has already arranged for people to cultivate it?"

"It has been arranged, and some fields have been opened up in the direction of the tributaries of the Danube. The blacksmith shop has built some curved ploughs that are popular among the people, and they are tied with horses. The fields that can be cultivated have been opened, and the wheat seeds have been Once it is sown, it will be ready to be harvested next summer."

The winter wheat has already been planted, but Geralt still has the powerful tool of corn as a reward from the system. However, the season has not yet come, so it cannot be sown. However, when the winter wheat is harvested when the corn is planted next year, it will be seamlessly connected. Yes, consider it. When corn needs a lot of water to grow, open up some fields near the tributaries.

"By the way, Harry, have you arranged a breeding place for your pigs and chickens?" Geralt asked again.

"It's arranged, my lord, and I specially asked the carpenter to build two corrals to keep them. The pig's feed is temporarily the same as the horse's feed, and the chicken's feed is fed with beet residue and some bran."

"Yeah." Geralt nodded. Now the construction of the territory is orderly, so Geralt took a break and thought about some of the shows he watched in his previous life, and looked for ways to raise chickens and pigs.

Seeing Geralt pondering deeply, Harry didn't step forward to disturb him. He brought a charcoal-burning stove and placed it beside Geralt.

After a long time, Geralt came back to his senses and said to Harry, "Arrange the carpenter to make several wooden boxes that are 2 meters by 2 meters and 35 centimeters high."

"Yes, my lord." Harry didn't ask anything. His lord ordered him to obey.

Harry turned to look for the carpenter, Geralt stayed where he was, frowning and thinking, "How do earthworms get raised?"

After a while, Harry came back and said to Geralt, "My lord, the wooden box is ready."

"Let's go then." Geralt stood up and went to the carpenter with Harry.

"My lord." The carpenter greeted Geralt with a salute.

Geralt replied, and asked the two warriors to carry the wooden box, put it in an empty room, turned around and instructed Harry:

"Arrange some people to dig some soil and spread it in the wooden box, no need for a thin layer, and arrange some people to dig some earthworms back."

Harry took orders out.

Geralt went to the warehouse, brought a few bags of beet dregs over, and went to the place where the horse manure was piled up. The more than 200 horses could be lined up a lot every day, with cloth tied their noses, Geralt shovel I collected some decomposed horse manure, packed a few sacks in sacks, and brought it back to the room where the breeding box was placed.

When Geralt came back, the wooden box had already been covered with a thin layer of soil, and he poured a few sacks of horse manure into the breeding box, and after putting the beet dregs on it, the 35 cm high wooden box was almost filled. , filled the breeding box, and Harry brought people back.

"My lord, this is the earthworm you want." Harry handed over a pottery pot with over a hundred earthworms twisting in it.

Geralt used a shovel to make the bait in the breeding box fluffy, dug a hole, poured the earthworms into it, buried the hole with the bait, and ordered again: "Go find some hay and cover it on the wooden box. , the temperature in this room is also a little lower, you try to warm up the room, but not too high."

"Understood, my lord." Several people in the room nodded and went to work.

Geralt also walked out of the room, murmuring as he walked: "How many earthworms should a breeding box keep? Anyway, there are more than a hundred of them. Let's raise them first to gain experience. scale farming."

"Anyway, there are only six chickens now. When the scale of the flock grows, the technology for raising earthworms should also be perfected."

Geralt thought while walking. After walking for a while, a soldier's voice came from his ear: "Sir, the archer commander and the infantry commander are back!"
