Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 215 - Road meets tiger



As soon as they met the tiger, the eight lancers who followed the caravan became nervous in an instant. They subconsciously formed a formation and stood in front of the caravan, just like they train every day in the barracks. It’s like facing an enemy on the battlefield.

The eight spearmen stood side by side, holding their spears obliquely pointing at the tiger 20 meters away, and keeping their posture motionless, they were indeed a little scared in their hearts.

But these spearmen understand that running away does not solve the problem. It is the most stupid choice to leave the back to the enemy on the battlefield. The same is true in the face of tigers. Humans can run faster than tigers, and there is only one dead end to escape.

I don’t know why when the eight of them stood together, the fear in their hearts subsided a lot, just like the battle a few days ago, as long as they hugged the team, they were safe. No one can penetrate their defenses. This is not only what Master Marco had always emphasized to them in the barracks, but also what they experienced on the battlefield.

Even so, they did not dare to take a step forward. At this time, provoking the tiger is definitely a deadly act. It is already a very brave act to stand in place. Before these soldiers came forward, the caravan’s guys and porters They have all been messed up. If they hadn’t been in a stalemate with the Tigers, it is estimated that the entire caravan had been defeated by a tiger.

Seeing soldiers protecting them, Jody stabilized the situation in time. These people stood not far behind the spearman, and looked at the eight people and one tiger not far away. Even the atmosphere was afraid to come out. One accidentally broke this quiet scene.

Such a tense situation lasted for more than an hour, until the tiger felt that it would not be worth the loss to persist in this way, so he turned and left. When the tiger disappeared from people’s sight, the eight spearmen almost lay on the ground. , The hands holding the spear trembled slightly.

They feel more tired than in the training queue in the barracks. In normal training, one station is two hours, and they don’t feel so tired. The stalemate with the tiger for more than an hour makes them physically and mentally exhausted. Not long after the winter, a layer of cold sweat appeared on the back of every soldier, and they might not forget what happened today.

Originally, the caravan started late this time. Some were delayed on the road for so long. By the time they arrived at Cindy’s stronghold, it was already late at night. The exhausted caravan and soldiers really couldn’t go on. Stay here for one night.

Even if there is a bright bonfire in the camp, it will not dispel the fear in everyone’s hearts. Just after everyone spent this difficult night in half asleep and half awake, the mental state of the rest of the caravan is not as good as the spirits of the soldiers who watched the night. Until they reached the Nanshanzhai safely, they truly felt relieved.

Listening to what Jody and a few spearmen said, Nord has figured out the whole thing. Although it is a bit thrilling, fortunately, there are no real casualties. This can be regarded as a wake-up for Nord, this mountain Lin is not so easy to conquer. Not to mention the mountain people in the cottage, the environment of the Amon Mountains and the beasts walking around are enough for Nord to drink a pot. It is not so easy to conquer this ancient mountain.

Looking at the tired eyes of the soldiers, Nord immediately arranged for them to rest. After putting all the goods into the market in Nanshanzhai, these guys could not hold on. Nord sighed. Lehman’s mobilization of some crossbowmen has no time to delay.

Perhaps only bows and crossbows can give them peace of mind. The unexpected appearance of a tiger made the entire caravan fearful and panic. In the long run, it will definitely delay the progress of the entire plan. The efficiency of the caravan’s transportation of materials is related to the speed of the entire plan. Why Nord has to work so hard to build mountain roads.

To be honest, now most of Nord’s income is invested in the construction plan of the mountain road. More than half of the construction team in Tammy Town builds roads in the forest. Let alone the materials needed for road construction, these construction workers His salary is a big expense, not to mention that this is just a road from Tammy Town to Nanshanzhai.

When the roads of these cottages are started for some time, it is estimated that it will be another scene. Nord simply estimates that at least three mountain roads need to be built at the same time. This is still the same place. Because of one road, it is impossible for Nord to build a road for every cottage, and can only connect more cottages with one road as much as possible.

In addition, there will be many mountain people who will build roads, because the cottage has no other jobs. Except for the hunter team that Nord is about to set up, the mountain people want to make money. Apart from venturing in the mountains and forests to find supplies, only those who join Nord will have to join Nord. The road construction team is out.

In addition to Songjiazhai, which is currently unwilling to cooperate, the population of the other cottages add up to at least 1,200. That is to say, there should be more than 300 mountain people who joined the road construction, which is to pay for these mountain people. The salary is a big expense.

It is estimated that all the profits of Nord’s entire caravan will not fill this big hole. This is only a small part of the outer part of the Amon Mountains, like the tip of an iceberg. Nord can see from the map sent by Harlan yesterday. Hundreds of years ago, there were not many cottages in the Amon Mountains. Because the map was relatively crude, Nord roughly counted them, and there were only less than one hundred cottages on the map.

All of them are distributed on the periphery. The depths of the Amon Mountains are really inaccessible, but Nord is not clear. After a few hundred years, the number of cottages has increased or decreased. Nord used Harlan’s crude The map is compared with the one on the system, although the fog of war on the system map has not been solved yet.

For a rough comparison, within five hundred kilometers of the southern boundary three to the north, in addition to these few cottages that have dealt with Nord, there should be six or seven undiscovered cottages waiting for Nord to develop~www.mtlnovel .com~ This matter is not in a hurry. After the two wait-and-see cottages of Bokazhai and Tokzhai are settled, we can look for other cottages.

As for Songjiazhai, it depends on their performance. Nord sees the Nanshanzhai bazaar being filled with dangdang, and he has confidence in his heart. Because now the caravan guys have gone to rest, there is no one in the bazaar. Presiding over the overall situation, Nord glanced at Marco and Old Moore beside him, and he had a candidate in his heart.

When Marko looked at him, his heart shook, especially when Nord smiled from him, Marco felt a bad feeling. Marco responded to Nord with a very stiff smile, his face was very It’s unnatural, like knowing what will happen next.

“Marko, I will let Jodi be in charge of the Nanshanzhai bazaar from now on. You don’t have to worry about staying at the bazaar in the future, but not today. They came from afar and were scared on the road. They are now resting, so You are still responsible for today’s market.”

“It’s Lord Nord.”

Marco’s voice was feeble, and his face became like a bitter gourd, his eyes looked at the ground blankly, as if he had already admitted his fate.
