Chapter 777: Human Choice, Countdown to Challenge(2/2)
"Interesting, this is the real world."
Zong Shen stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at this scene calmly, but he couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.
After waiting for five or six minutes, he finally got the result he wanted!
The farmers at the scene were divided into two groups.
There was a large group of people, about six to seven thousand in number. They lowered their heads, looking guilty and timid.
The other wave of people was a small number, exceeding the five hundred required by Zong Shen and approaching a thousand people.
There were men and women among them, the ratio was about 3:1, and they were all wearing cotton and linen clothes issued by the territory.
It's not clean, but it's not shabby either. It looks at least more orderly than those homeless people.
This group of people are brave men who volunteered to take on the task. Each of them is bold and high-spirited, looking very motivated and full of confidence on their faces.
"Pa bang bang..."
"Very good, but it's over the limit."
"To all the farmers who have come forward, you are brave."
"After the reform of the free people, each person will be given an additional 100 dinars as initial circulating funds."
Zong Shen clapped his hands and added that after Mariel glanced at him, she immediately called a dozen logistics heroes to count the number of people, and at the same time screened out 500 people on the spot.
Five hundred farmers are enough for emergency repairs during wartime. Too many will only cause trouble. After all, farmers have basically no fighting power at all. Even militiamen trained by first-order warriors and wearing whiteboard equipment can knock down several people in one go.
To expect the farmer to face the enemy is no less than laying a flock of lambs to be slaughtered.
Even these brave farmers who are mentally prepared cannot do it.
The fact that they will stand up just shows that they have the courage to take responsibility in their hearts, but it does not mean that they can persist in the face of cruel battles.
Therefore, five hundred people are enough to complete the task, but more is useless and may cause trouble.
As for how to screen, leave it to the logistics heroes.
Anyway, every brave farmer who comes forward now will receive an additional initial capital of 100 dinars when the freedmen plan is launched.
Mr. Zong is very wealthy and does not care about this expenditure of less than 100,000 dinars.
This wave of operations not only allowed him to see the resurgence of humanity among his subjects, but also gained another wave of loyalty.
The world in front of him becomes more real and vivid, and he has the motivation to continue fighting.
After completing the farmer's inspection, Zong Shen returned to the fortress with Luna, Blood Wolf Colby and Xiao Heizi.
Senior agronomist Salome Linyu and senior pharmacist Clarissa Theresa both came here.
However, senior goblin engineer Iron Hand Balent and the dwarf uncle still stick to their posts.
The corresponding workshops and [blacksmith shop] have been moved here.
Salome Lin Yu carefully took care of the sweet potato experimental field in the yard.
The future sweet potato business in the territory will start here!
Everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
Zong Shen asked Xiao Heizi to be on standby, and Luna also played [Sentinel Black Panther].
He used [Wandering Walk] to flash Luna to the commanding heights of the tower of the lord's fortress, silently observing the situation in the surrounding territories.
Tasia and Aysia went to join the caster troops.
The two sisters Madeleine and Mapel also reported to Vereesa. They will each lead a team of archers to fight on the front line.
Luna does not need to go to the front line because she is pregnant.
When Luna really takes action, the territory will be almost completely lost.
Zong Shen will decide whether to take action and how to take action only after the battle breaks out.
He is the anchor of the territory, and there is absolutely no room for error.
If he was stabbed by the enemy because he was too rough, it would be a big boat capsized in the gutter.
Although Zong was very confident that he could pass the defensive challenge, he kept in mind the consequences of those who underestimated the enemy.
After all, the enemy's strength this time depends on the overall strength of the territory.
In other words, despite the fact that the current territorial soldiers have strong horses and powerful defenses, all of his defenses, props and methods will be transformed into the corresponding strength of the enemy.
As he looked at the situation in the territory, the expression on his face changed from relaxed to solemn.
How powerful would an enemy be that could confidently break such a defense?
Is it a single entity that is powerful, or is it a large number?
He didn't know all of this.
So he will become hesitant. The lack of information is one of the most confidence-draining situations.
After a lot of trouble, it was already past 11 o'clock in the morning.
He saw the open space outside the lord's fortress. The farmers were ready and brought their share of supplies.
The supplies that were originally piled aside were taken by the soldiers and farmers one after another, and now they are empty.
The 500 farmers were also selected and divided into five teams to go to all directions of the territory.
The remaining team serves as a mobile support team to support the team under greater pressure at any time.
The remaining farmers, under the command of dozens of logistics heroes, entered a large number of refuge cellars scattered around the territory. These cellars formed a special underground circle near the fortress.
Under such circumstances, the crowd dispersed quickly.
The exploration scouts sent by the northern post had just reached the halfway point. They all chose to walk because they were worried about Long Wei. It seemed that they would not be able to get here before the challenge started.
During the last period of time, Zong Shen looked around at the situation and at the same time opened the storage compartment to check the props.
Aze has already contacted him, and Jiang Yi also took the initiative to contact him.
There is nothing more that needs to be explained.
Chapter completed!
