Chapter 13: The 13th Army

In his previous life, Aslan didn't dare to secretly mine iron ore until he had enough strength to monitor the entire Melo area. As for the salt.

"It seems that when the annual tax is due next month, I will go to Billy City to see if I can buy a batch of salt and iron." Aslan looked at Fort Wood, which was in full swing, and muttered subconsciously.

Wilson next to him seemed to have heard what Aslan said, and quickly said in a low voice: "Master, if you want to go in person this time, please bring your subordinates with you. Your subordinates have relatives who are doing business in Billy City." , maybe it can solve many problems for the lord."

"Oh!" Regarding this matter, Aslan was a little surprised, because in his previous life, Aslan had no idea that Wilson had such a relative in Billy City.

Could it be that Wilson joined Aslan too late and his relatives moved away.

"That would be the best." Aslan nodded with a smile.

The entire Melo area is a bit backward, and there are very few intermediate-level items, making Aslan's innate magic skills useless. The only advantage should be the exquisite and gorgeous furniture in the Lord's Mansion.

furniture.

A flash of inspiration came to Aslan's mind. Gorgeous furniture could indeed become a source of income for the town of Melo. To the east of the town of Melo was the Fali Hill jungle, and the trees produced there were excellent wood for furniture.

"Gute will be the base of the Melo Army from now on. All daily training will also be done here, and guard posts will be set up around it. This place will become the key secret of Melo Town. Anyone who approaches the fortress without permission will be shot to death." Ah Silan said with a murderous face.

In the past six months, Aslan has killed many people, and he has already made all the officials in Melo town understand that the lord is not a good talker.

"Yes! Your lord."

Early the next morning.

Aslan was standing on a flat ground outside Fort Wood. At this time, there were already more than a hundred people gathered in front of him.

Gut walked up to Aslan and said, "My lord, I have assembled."

Aslan looked at the messy group of more than a hundred people in front of him. Although they maintained a square formation, their standing heights were also uneven, and most of them were chatting. Compared with the previous life, the formation of elementary school students was not as good as when they were practicing between classes.

The most talked about topic among these people is whether they can really receive five silver coins every month.

Gut was about to scold these soldiers with a gloomy face, but was stopped by Aslan.

Aslan walked to a relatively high place, he looked at the crowd, clapped his hands and said.

"Everyone be quiet, I think everyone knows what this place is for, and I also know that the five silver coins really moved you."

Although no one dared to speak against Aslan, the expression and attitude were very obvious, and it was for the five silver coins.

It seems that in the past six months, Aslan's image in the eyes of the people is not only kind and generous, but also strict and majestic, which makes these soldiers dare not have any confrontation.

Aslan's tone became serious.

"Very good! Then I won't talk nonsense anymore. It's not so easy to be a soldier of my Melo army. If someone is lazy or disobeys orders during training, they will be dealt with by military law!"

As soon as they heard the military law, the people below were in an uproar. After all, the soldiers under the lords of other regions had very loose military discipline and training during the non-war period.

But after hearing the request from the Melo Army, many people's faces changed drastically. Not only is the training hard, but the military discipline is also very strict. Some people are already thinking about whether it is a good way to make money.

But Aslan gave them no chance to speak.

"As long as you become qualified soldiers! Serve for another year, and your monthly salary will be increased to ten silver coins."

Ten silver coins!

Everyone in the audience exclaimed again, compared to the military law, the salary made them more concerned. As long as they don't provoke the bottom line of the military law, ten silver coins can still be obtained easily.

Gu Te on the side was also surprised. You must know that the one month of farming in Merlot Town is less than three silver coins. These are those families who are allocated to the fields. Now the salary of five silver coins is much more than that .

Ten silver coins, for most families in the small town of Melo, that is definitely a huge sum of money. The originally unwelcome soldier profession has suddenly become a high-paying class in Melo Town.

"Our army will increase. Soldiers who train hard and fight bravely can be promoted to higher positions, and then they can get more benefits. You will all know the benefits of military ranks in the future."

At this time, Aslan was constantly stimulating them, drawing big cakes for them, and making them fall into longing.

"Ahem! Those who want to leave can leave now, and I will personally train you next." Aslan's eyes drifted over everyone.

In a poor place like the Merlot area, how attractive the conditions offered by Aslan can be seen from the fact that no one is willing to leave.

Aslan nodded in satisfaction, and shouted loudly: "I now announce that the training of your recruits has officially begun."

"There are all of them! Ten in each row form ten rows, and the extra ones stand in the back."

It took five or six minutes for a group of people to stand up in disorder.

Aslan said to Gut who was on the side: "Go and stand at the head of the line, and you will also participate in training together."

Gut pointed at himself in amazement and said, "I want to participate in training too?"

Aslan said affirmatively: "Yes! You also want to participate in the training, you have to remember my training process, and you will be the one to train them in the future."

"Yes!" Although Gut was still a little surprised, he still chose to obey the lord's order.

"You guys stand like this for two hours first!" Aslan held a wooden stick in his hand and kept shuttling through the team. He wanted to bring over the military training from his previous life completely.

He wants to train an army that is entirely his own, the strongest iron-blooded army on the mainland.

Prohibition is the most basic requirement.

As for the knight guards under his command, Aslan had already asked Arthur to be in charge of training, but he was more comprehensive and favored special operations.

When the array took shape, Wilson hurried over.

"My lord, something happened."

Aslan handed the teaching stick to Arthur who was next to him and said, "Train them according to the training I have given you."

"Yes! My lord!"

"Tell me! What happened?"

"The lord of Jimmy Town sent someone over!"

Jimmy Town is a town located at the junction of the Merlo region and the Billy region. It belongs to the Billy region and is the closest city to Merlo Town. It has a population of more than 20,000 and its main source of income is food. It is the largest in the province of Mellox. One of the food suppliers to the lord is Jimmy Baron.
