Zhongtiefeng County, Xiaoshi Town.

In the mountain road, the commander holding the red flag in his hand rode his horse and walked quickly.

"Red Flag!" The sentry on the watchtower saw the red flag flying from afar, shouting and ringing the alarm: "Red Flag!"

The alarm bell rang to the center of the town before the horse's hooves, and the company commander of the 7th company stationed in Xiaoshi Town [Li Wei] rushed to the town square.

Three war horses spraying with white foam stopped in the square. The blue war horse led by the leader suddenly tilted its back legs and fell down.

Amid the screams of others, the messenger rolled off the saddle and was almost crushed to his left leg on the spot.

"Military Order?" Li Wei strode to the commander's side.

The messenger immediately went to get the saddle bag, but the saddle bag was suppressed by the war horses, and the exhausted messenger could not pull out anyway.

Li Wei pushed away the messenger, stood firm, and suddenly exerted force on his waist and legs, lifting up the hundreds of pounds of horse corpse.

The military police next to him quickly removed the saddle bag.

Li Wei snatched the saddle bag, pulled out the military order, and tore open the paint seal. There were no letters on the letter paper, only a red cross made of blood.

Li Wei can't read and write, but he won't admit his mistakes in this symbol.

Xiaoshi Town has no branches or villages, and all the people who can still walk are mobilized.

The roar of the explosion roared in the canyon, and the dam that intercepted the Huiqing River was demolished layer by layer, and the river water that had sufficient potential energy roared and rushed downstream.

...

Zhongtiefeng County, Rewodan New City.

On the setting sun, the former sergeant [Ivan] stood on the arrow tower, watching the movements on the horizon, and the wet heat oozed out of his palms.

He was waiting for news from the torrential river.

Revodan is located in the solid land in the middle of the valley, with flat fields on all sides, and there is no danger to guard except for the moats and fortifications under construction.

The main companies of the Iron County Infantry Regiment rushed to Pangtuo River, and Revodan's city defense was completely taken over by the City Guard.

Whether Ivan wanted to or not, as a former city guard and sergeant, he once again took up his weapon.

Ordinary people who know nothing about war can easily develop blind trust in Montanebomin officials.

But Ivan is different. He has experienced the most moody side of war, and he is deeply afraid of it.

And he knew very well that the victory or defeat of this battle was not in Revodan, but in the fierce battle a hundred kilometers away.

But Ivan didn't know how the battle was in the Pongto River - no one knew that the citizens of Revodan and those who came to take refuge were all waiting for the new issue of "War Newsletter".

Ivan's after-light looking at the square in the center of the new city. There, men and women who have finished their day's work are lined up to receive rewards - food.

Richard Mason was also in the square. He took his assistants to pass the stall where food was distributed and randomly took the bread to check.

Initially, according to tradition, the remuneration of the people participating in the project was paid in the form of food.

However, the people who came to Revodan to take refuge had neither millstone nor cookware. They had to use the grain to exchange for bread when they got it, and finally they fattened the miller and baker.

After repeated consideration, Mason decided to follow the method of preparing military rations in the Second Company: to produce bread in a unified manner, and then pay "rewards" in the form of bread.

One wave has not yet settled, and another wave has risen again.

The unified bread production model seems to benefit the people, but in fact it gives the borers the opportunity to cut corners and do their best.

If it were someone else, it might be fooled, but Captain Richard Mason is more proficient in statistics than artillery.

Merlin temporary recruits students from the accounting school to start implementing a new inspection method that requires a large amount of computing power - sampling inspection in the production of Rhodean's bread.

The expansion of scale is both an opportunity for borers and a chance for Richard Mason to practice statistics. Because the larger the total amount and sample size, the smaller the error in statistical sampling will be.

The borers who know nothing about mathematical tools are found one after another. Although there may be fish that escape the net, the swaying corpses under the gallows are enough to temporarily shock the young man.

Another carriage drove across the wooden bridge with toasted bread. Mason saw the visitor and walked quickly over to greet him.

Mason held the bridle and said apologetically: "If you are lucky, come here in person, I will send a coachman to you."

The two ladies were driving the carriage. Scarlett dressed in a boy held the reins and Anna, wearing a top hat, sat next to Scarlett.

Anna nodded slightly, and Scarlett gave Captain Mason a slightly funny military salute

The war did not spread to Revodan, which was the center of the storm, enjoying the last tranquility of Tiefeng County.

Revodan was ultimately unable to implement the system of men and women's division of camps. However, with the help of the power of the public church, Mason temporarily placed the women and children among the refugees in the old city.

Baking bread requires a lot of manpower, and the women and children who were placed in the old city also undertake a considerable part of the baking work.

Mason knew that Ms. Navare came here to ask herself, and his apology was deeper: "Sorry, there is still no news about Winters."

Anna's eyes were filled with a little loss, and she immediately cheered up and said with a frank smile: "I think there may be good news if there is no news."

Scarlett was also a little disappointed, and Ms. Michelle tried her best to show it. She looked into the distance and asked, "Sir Captain, has the city wall been repaired?"

"There are 128 construction sections in total, and 113 have been completed." Mason replied rigorously.

"If the city wall was repaired, the Hurds did not come in the end." Scarlett sat back on the coachman's seat with a little regret: "What a pity."

Mason shook his head with a faint smile: "Miss Mitchell, preventing the Hurds from coming here - is the meaning of building this new city."

...

Shangtifeng County, Hammer Fort.

There are two hammer forts in Hammer Fort Town. The old hammer fort is an old high tamu fort.

New Hammer Fort was built by Captain Richard Mason to deal with the attack from Vorne County, and is located further north.

The two new and old hammers are located one in front and one behind on the main road between [Verne County-Tiefeng County], firmly guarding the gateway of Tiefeng County.

However, there is a design problem with the new and old hammer castles: because of the lack of a wall-blocking structure, the two hammer castles can only block the passage of the army and are difficult to defend against small groups of enemies.

At this moment, the company commander of the "Birthmark" who was responsible for defending the Hammer Fort was squatting next to a ball of horse manure, his eyebrows were deeply twisted into a knot.

"There must be a martyr of Hed." Old Sergeant Dusak poked the horse manure: "It's all frozen and hard, at least last night. Looking at the hoof prints, there are not many people, maybe they were driven into the Vorne County.

Our barbarians here.”

"Light the beacon." The birthmark company commander gave a cold order, and he thought silently: "It's not peaceful to go to Tiefeng County."

...

Xia Tiefeng County, on the banks of the Dajiao River.

Samujin's fleet not only captured the ferry, but also captured a large number of sheepskin rafts.

Relying on small boats and captured sheepskin rafts, Major Ronald led the militia and women and children across the Great Kowloon River and camped on the west bank.

The situation has undergone a wonderful reversal:

The people from Xiatiefeng County, who were clearly on the east bank, ran to the west bank to build a camp;

And the people of Terdon, who came from the west bank, stood on the east bank with big eyes and stared at each other because they had no ship.

A part of the sheepskin raft was left behind, and Samujin led his fleet to the downstream battlefield again.

Before leaving, Samujin told Major Ronald: "The total force of the right-wing army of the Teltons should be seven to eight thousand men.

The fire-growing players left at least two teams of troops to restrain their troops on the West Bank. Although these Terdun people have been repelled, they may make a comeback at any time.

The Montaneboman hopes you know that you need not only to guard against enemies on the east bank crossing the river, but also to be careful of the raids of the Teltons on the west bank.”

...

The Great Wilderness, the Teltons overwintering pasture.

The rich and fertile wintering pastures in the Terdun tribe have now become a fire scene where life is tragic.

On the wasteland, the wind direction is volatile in a small range, but the rules of the monsoon in a large range cannot be denied.

The spring and summer monsoons come from east to west, and the autumn and winter monsoons come from west to east. This is an iron rule that has not changed between the two mountains for thousands of years.

Andrea Chelini and Don Juan led the cavalry to the west first. When they were hungry, they went to kill the ox of the Teltonites, and when they were thirsty, they went to squeeze the milk of the sheep of the Teltonites and the horses.

When I was exhausted, I went to rob the horses of the Terdon people.

Then he turned around and turned back, using the power of the monsoon to set fire to the pasture along the way.

It’s like a spark falling into a haystack. In the rainless and dry winter, the flames will be out of control once they spread.

Rolling smoke enveloped the wintering pastures of Terdunte, and the people of Terdun scattered everywhere drove away cattle and sheep and fled with their belongings.

But where can they escape?

Fire cannot kill people, and smoke can choke people to death. Even if you can escape from the fire by chance, the grass that has been overwintered has been burned into scorched earth.

Don Juan on the hillside looked at the scene of hell he created with his own hands, and his expression was a little solemn: "Maybe we have made it too much, and we burned it, and the Hurds have no food or drink, and will come again next year."

"With food and drink, they will come again." Andre replied in a muffled voice: "Let's go, get around the fire and let's go home."

...

Zhongtiefeng County, Pangtuohe River trest.

The river water that was struggling to the ground was stained with blood again, and this place where military strategists were fighting for changed hands again.

The Teltons left nearly a hundred soldiers to guard the camp of the siege, while Winters personally led four main companies and militia auxiliary troops to attack them from front to back and forth to encircle them.
