Lord of the Oasis

The upgrade of the arms is completed, and all of them look full of energy.

20 Salander riders, 25 elite desert robbers, these people can be regarded as determining the foundation of the light cavalry force, and recruiting some desert robbers in the next few weeks, the light cavalry force will be successfully formed.

Small-scale sweeps, harassments, and investigations can be completely entrusted to them.

This will undoubtedly avoid the meaningless attendance of the Swadian heavy cavalry as the ace.

For the gnolls currently scattered in the Naron Desert, sometimes it is not the most sensible choice to use heavy cavalry that can directly overwhelm the enemy array and can be called invincible in land warfare.

On the contrary, those light cavalrymen are good at solving this kind of problem perfectly.

"Dissolve on the spot and continue to watch the prisoners."

"Don't let our dinars run away," Kant told the upgraded Sarandians.

What he was referring to was naturally the gnolls who were squatting on the training ground with their hands and feet tied and their heads lowered. The development of the sentry oasis and the increase in the strength of the troops depended on the first gnolls brought back by these gnoll captives. nar.

This is a precious resource for the system to exchange dinars at present, at a strategic level!

"clear."

The Salander riders and the desert robbers returned in a deep voice.

The kind of momentum that belongs to the regular army and the elite of the bandits is undoubtedly revealed. After responding neatly, they spread out at the fastest speed, but they did not leave the training ground too far, forming a faint cage, trapping those gnoll captives.

If these captives dare to make trouble, and they are stationed at a few key points, the scimitars around their waists are not vegetarians.

Kant nodded: "Yes."

Now 50 Swadian heavy cavalry is his ace troop, the main reliance to fight against other forces, so in some small-scale sweeping operations, it is impossible to dispatch, only as the background of the sentry oasis.

Kant has already made up his mind.

In the next time, the light cavalry troops composed of these Sarandians will be the main force to take the initiative to attack the enemy.

The weekly recruitment share of 20 desert robbers is very large.

Troop upgrade solution.

Kant himself was at ease.

Many affairs are resolved by Fatis and Manid. As a lord, he only needs to make final decisions and listen to reports.

This is one of the benefits of owning and utilizing talent.

He walked towards the outside of the city gate.

Kant intends to visit the agricultural area. After all, the barren land of more than ten acres is actually related to the grain reserves in the sentry oasis in the future. As a lord, he must not relax too optimistically.

What's more, he has just completed the task, and he still has the task reward.

5 nests of sand grouse, and 10 nests of desert bees, all of which can be involved in agriculture.

"Animal husbandry has also started to develop."

Kant pondered slightly.

Turning around the city wall to the east side, many farmers are busy with tools or homemade wooden tools, carefully watering and transforming the canals in these barren sandy soils, ensuring the existing 7.5 mu of barley fields and 5 Mu date palm trees can replenish sufficient water in this hot weather.

When the city walls were built, the residential and agricultural areas were completely separated.

At the same time, the spring water, which was originally used as an irrigation source, was shrouded inside the city wall, and it became the exclusive water source behind the current administration hall, so as to supply the living water of the entire fortress.

At present, the irrigation of the entire agricultural area is completely dependent on the small lake that also communicates with groundwater.

It is not difficult to simply transform the canal, just dig out the canal.

But the difficult part is that the land is slightly desertified. As the lake water is poured into the canal, farmers must patrol and maintain it at all times. Otherwise, the flowing lake water will cause the soft sand to collapse, causing the canal to be blocked in many places and thus losing the effectiveness of irrigation. .

As far as the current peasants are concerned, before going to bed at night, they have to hold torches to maintain the canals.

But wait until the next morning to wake up.

The canal that was maintained last night was still soaked and collapsed by the lake, which hindered the water flow of the canal. It must be maintained and repaired in the early morning, otherwise the dead canal will affect the water content of the land.

The temperature in the Narun Desert is very high. Within half an hour at noon, the surface temperature can rise to 70°C.

Evaporation of the land is severe, and water content is reduced, which is not good news for the seeds still waiting in the date palms and wheat fields.

"Remember that after the fort is upgraded, there are related buildings."

Kant swept across the busy peasants holding farm implements, and his heart moved slightly.

The thinking is directly connected to the system, and as the dialog box pops up, the agricultural building will have a canal as expected, and as a system building, the damage resistance level is much stronger than the original canal dug by oneself.

"Build the canal." Kant gave the system an order directly.

【ding...system prompt】

[Building the canal cost 100 dinars and took 3 days. 】

The system responds.

For Kant, this amounted to petty money.

It only took 3 days to repair a canal, which made him feel a little longer.

But sweeping the crooked canal, Kant frowned helplessly, and said solemnly: "It's definitely built."

The buildings produced by the system are completely at the best level.

Judging from the buildings in the Sentinel Oasis, it is known that the products produced by the system must be high-quality products. On the basis of the standard Swadia buildings, there are also some modifications to the desert area to make the buildings more suitable for construction in the desert.

【ding...system prompt】

[Because your "Drehem" is currently a fortress level, so the village level setting will no longer be used when building, and multiple buildings can be built at the same time without additional construction costs. 】

The system prompt immediately appeared on Kant's retina.

This is one of the perks of upgrading to a fortress.

"Very good." Kant nodded and chuckled.

Although the extra construction doesn't cost much dinars, he can save as much as he can, and his dinars are not much.

Somewhere in the sand dunes not far away, construction workers arrived in carriages.

The Reston Ranger, who had noticed in advance, reported the situation to the messenger downstairs, and then 10 Salander riders rode their horses to check, and when they learned that it was the construction team that built the canal, they accompanied him.

This time it was still Suno's construction team.

When he came to Kant's location, he immediately began to build the canal.

"Didn't your leader come?"

Kant questioned the construction workers.

He looked around at these people, but there were 10 construction workers and a carriage carrying wood and stone, and there was no chubby construction leader that he often saw, which made Kant a little curious.

"Lord Lord, our leader is busy recruiting workers."

A construction worker saluted respectfully and replied, "But he still asked me to pay you the highest respect."

"Yeah." Kant nodded, really in the style of the chubby building leader.

Continue to chat a few words with the construction workers.

Kant unexpectedly discovered that the fat leader had already made a fortune. Not only did he recruit more people as construction workers, but he also hired a lot of engineers and contracted a lot of projects in Suno and surrounding villages, just like a new construction giant.

According to the workers, even Suno's city wall repair project was such a big piece of fat that the fat man had already won it.

"Tsk tsk." Kant shook his head, this fat man is indeed a businessman.

The basic channels of the canals have been dug by farmers.

Therefore, the work of the construction workers has become simple. They only need to compact the canal with stones, so that the lake water flows on these neatly cut, brick-like stones without touching the sandy soil.

In addition, 20-centimeter paved roads are also laid on both sides of the canal for farmers to walk when irrigating their fields.

"correct."

Kant watched the canal being built, and the land could finally be irrigated more adequately, and he was very satisfied.

However, the khaki barren sandy land made Kant frown slightly, as if thinking of something, he turned to greet a few farmers, and arranged: "There is some soil outside the city gate on the east side, pull it all over, and sprinkle it on these wheat fields. Bar."

"Understood." The peasants nodded and immediately picked up the rattan baskets and tools and walked to the city gate.

What Kant was talking about was the seven piles of dirt outside the city wall.

These are the soils that formed the material of their own elements after the earth element giants were killed, their bodies collapsed and scattered, and they looked very fertile, and in any case they were stronger than these sandy soils.

Soon, the peasants came back with rattan baskets on their backs.

There is a lot of fertile soil, and they are sprinkled on the wheat fields as fertilizing soil.

"It's enough to arrange these." Kant looked at the scene and nodded.

From now on, the earth element giants can be recruited every week, and the fairly fertile soil obtained after killing them will be sprinkled on the agricultural area over time, which will definitely improve the quality of the land and make the barren land fertile.

In Kant's view, this is ready-made fertile soil.

Continuing to walk forward, around the half-meter-high wall, Kant came to the junction of the date palm forest and the wheat field.

10 dromedary camels are being kept here.

Due to the shade of the trees, it is neither cold nor hot. The food trough is full of forage made from Achnatherum splendens, which is chewed and digested by these camels, becoming energy stored in the hump.

Kant strolls through its luxuriant date palm branches and leaves, blocking most of the sun.

Even the light is slightly dim, but the temperature is extremely pleasant, comparable to the vicinity of the Consulate Hall shrouded by the sun disc.

Date palms have the function of regulating temperature.

Planting date palms in the eastern desert also supports the growth of other delicate crops.

For example, beets, melons, and chickpeas can grow perfectly under the shade of date palms. This is also a relatively well-known crop ecological environment in the Eastern Desert, and it is worth trying even in this world.

"Use cards."

Kant's mind communicates with his mind, and the three task rewards he has just obtained can be used in these shades.

Sand grouse and desert bees, which are suitable for desert environments, are good things.
