Chapter 854: Cyclops
Chapter 863 Cyclops
"No need... There are no dragon knights in Lagran City that need training... Okay, there's nothing for you to do, leave!" Roland said with a dark face. He was not a formalist, so there was no need to drag his subordinates over to make trouble.
"Oh." Darion Nightblade nodded and then slowly disappeared in front of Roland.
"Aragorn... Tsk!" Roland couldn't help shaking his head when he thought of the Aragorn recorded in history. It was estimated that Aragorn and Legolas were hiding in the woods at this time.
"Help me summon His Excellency Adolf Heinrich!" Roland patted the bell next to the table, and the jingling bell immediately attracted the servants waiting at the door.
"Okay, Your Majesty!" The servant looked at the surrounding environment and lowered his head.
...
"Your Majesty!" Soon Adolf Heinrich came to Roland, holding a bundle of white paper in his hand and hurried over with a look of haste.
"What? You look busy?" Roland looked at the paper in Adolf Heinrich's hand and raised his mouth. Compared with the annoying parchment in Middle-earth, the white paper given by our system can capture people's hearts more!
"Well, I'm going to post a notice!" Adolf Heinrich raised the stack of papers in his hand.
"What's new? New laws? How come I don't know?" Roland looked at Adolf Heinrich curiously. After all, before the Imperial Parliament, the promulgation of various measures required the king's nod.
"No! A group of ice wolves came to the wilderness. Our knights are driving them away. We just notify the surrounding gathering places and Longya Castle to be vigilant!" Adolf Heinrich shook his head.
Hearing this, Roland was relieved. Although the inner city of Lagran City has not been fully built, gathering places of various sizes have begun to appear around it. A large number of wooden houses and thatched houses have sprung up. It is estimated that tens of thousands of people live in this area. Obviously, Adolf Heinrich wants to notify the residents here.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Adolf Heinrich just remembered to ask Roland why he wanted to talk to him.
"It's like this. I see that the severe winter is coming soon. How are our winter reserves? Do we have enough hay and food? What about cloth? Do the residents of the kingdom have enough supplies?" Roland asked.
"I don't know much about the situation in the area of Jiuliu City. Duke Joltya and Yun Feng are managing it there, but the area around Lagran City is definitely well-stocked! We have been stockpiling various supplies since the summer..." Adolf Heinrich said with a bit of a smile.
"We have a lot of war horses, and we need a lot of fodder. If it's not enough, we can harvest some more now while the heavy snow has not blocked the ground!" Roland murmured as he looked at the sky outside where snowflakes began to float.
"Don't worry, the war horses won't lose weight! We have stockpiled a lot of beans and a lot of dried vegetables! I am more worried about people than war horses!" Adolf Heinrich said a little embarrassedly.
"The conditions of ordinary residents will be very poor. There will be no fresh vegetables in winter. Their food will only be pickles, bread and bacon soup!" Adolf Heinrich said with some emotion. After all, the conditions in the kingdom are not good and it is impossible to supply fresh fruits and vegetables to the residents.
"Not bad, let them prepare more dried vegetables and pickles. As long as they don't starve to death, they will be lucky!" Roland did not feel dissatisfied. Compared with the first two years, Roland's basic militaristic military-civilian ratio was basically devastating. If there was no system, it would probably be cannibalism!
"Then it's okay. As long as those storage equipment and warehouses are not accidentally blown up, the residents of the kingdom will have no worries about food and clothing this winter! I'm talking about the surrounding areas of Lagran City!" Adolf Heinrich nodded and promised, and casually made a patch, in case the side of the Rapid City pulled him so that he would not be slapped on the spot.
"Another thing is that there is a small problem in the pioneering territory of Baron Ismir!" Adolf Heinrich turned around and said to Roland as if he remembered something.
"Tell me what happened to that guy? I remember him as being quite smart! Who did that to him?" Roland was somewhat curious. After all, it seemed that the pure-blooded Lagrang reckless man of Ismir had never suffered any loss, right?
"Well, a group of wandering Cyclops accidentally broke into their pioneering territory and robbed Baron Ismir's cattle and sheep..." Adolf Heinrich said awkwardly.
"Then what? Don't tell me that Ismir just swallowed his anger and let it go?" Roland raised his head to signal Adolf Heinrich to continue. After all, Ismir was not the kind of person who would suffer loss.
"No, now the whole army is fighting the Cyclops... How could he suffer loss? Stealing a few of his sheep is the same as killing him..." Adolf Heinrich was at a loss.
"Let Renault help, don't let this kid die!" Roland laughed and scolded. Lagrang himself didn't cause trouble, which didn't mean he was afraid of trouble. If Soran didn't open his eyes and came in person, Roland wouldn't mind splashing blood on his face!
"Well, General Raynor knows his limits..." Adolf Heinrich nodded, and secretly thought that Baron Ismir didn't seem to be someone who would easily suffer a loss.
...
"So this thing has no blood relationship with you?" Ismir teased during the battle to liven up the atmosphere.
"Hey! What mixed blood has to do with us! We are half-giants! These things are more like uncivilized beasts!" Ymir complained.
"Your relatives are strong! It's a pity that they don't go to move bricks!" Ismir laughed. If there were a group of Cyclops laborers when Windhelm City was built, the efficiency would be too high.
"Dream on! How can you limit these four or five meter tall guys?" Ymir complained.
"Roar!" A deafening roar interrupted the quarrel between the two.
"The bastard is coming?" Ysmir looked at Ymir. After all, Ysmir, who was nearly three meters tall, could see much farther than him.
"Just look at the noise and you'll know that thing is coming!" Ysmir pointed to the big trees that kept falling and breaking in the distance. Can you guess why those trees are leaning? Is it because they don't want to stand up?
"All troops, be on alert! General Ysmir's poor relatives are here to visit! Everyone, treat them well!" Ysmir raised his staff and waited for them.
"I...you!" Ysmir's eyes showed visible disgust and contempt. He said not to confuse them with these brainless big-eyed guys.
"Hahaha!" The soldiers of Windhelm laughed, and the tense atmosphere before the battle was relieved a lot, which made the sensitive Ismir breathe a sigh of relief. After all, facing the huge Cyclops, the soldiers' tense nerves might collapse and trigger a chain reaction.
"Roar! Crack!" With a roar, a head with sparse hair on top emerged from the smoke and dust with flying sawdust.
"Release!" Ismir waved his hand, and several light crossbow machines behind him were immediately activated, and several crossbow arrows like spears flew out.
"Bang!" The stone axe as high as a person smashed the crossbow arrow, and then roared towards the square.
"Ah!" But not everyone was lucky. A big-eyed handsome boy was pierced by a crossbow arrow. The strong stagnation force brought by the thick skin, muscles and fat made the crossbow arrow lose its power and stay in its body. The pain made the big-eyed boy cry.
"Get ready to meet the enemy!" Ismir's palms were sweating.
