Frontier Army Warrior

After Cui Ying heard about Lin Feng's battle record, she almost slipped away from the back of the camp if her father had not strictly stopped her and sent Song Yi to keep an eye on her.

She was eager to see how Lin Feng killed hundreds of Tartars in battle without losing a single soldier.

Unexpectedly, Song Yi didn't give her any chance at all, blocking her at the door and not moving a step.

Qiao Jun also didn't quite agree with her going to see Lin Feng.

Cui Ying had no choice but to wander around the camp in disappointment looking for someone to fight.

In the workshop in the backyard of the castle, all the laborers were required to stand in front of an open space.

Lin Feng stood not far away, frowning at the group of ragged laborers.

"Bai Jing, why don't you get them some work clothes?"

"Work clothes? Bro, what are those?"

"It's just work clothes. Look at them all dressed up like refugees."

Bai Jing pouted: "Brother, all your money is used to buy food and materials. Where is the money left to buy cloth to make clothes?"

"Where's Li Xiong, Li Xiong."

"Hey, Boss, I'm here."

Li Xiong is in charge of logistics, and all these people and things are under his jurisdiction.

"Go and tell them to wash their faces and fix their hair."

"Yes, boss."

Cui Yijiao, who was standing in the team of laborers, was so frightened that he could not stand steadily on his feet.

He lowered his head and looked through the messy hair hanging in front of his forehead.

About a dozen steps away from him stood the guy who gave him nightmares all day long.

It was all Mu Bentian's fault. If he continued to follow this guy, Li Xiong would have no choice but to follow him and suffer the consequences.

He saw Li Xiong looking up and shouting at his soldiers, asking the civilians to wash their faces.

My heart was trembling.

What is this going to do?

Could it be that what happened that day was discovered?

Cui Yijiao looked around secretly and saw the faint figures of soldiers. He was afraid that something really happened.

He felt desperate because the people in front of him knew him and knew about his feud with Lin Feng.

How to do?

Li Xiong, with his hands behind his back, followed several soldiers carrying washbasins, supervising each civilian to wash their faces and comb their hair.

There will be seven or eight more people and it will be Cui Yijiao's turn.

Cui Yijiao trembled even more violently.

A laborer standing next to him noticed his abnormality and turned his head to look at Cui Yijiao strangely.

Seeing that he was shivering violently, I asked in a low voice.

"Hey, brother, what's wrong with you?"

Cui Yijiao's lips were trembling and he couldn't speak.

The man reached out and touched him.

"Hey, are you sick?"

These words gave Cui Yijiao an inspiration. He rolled his eyes, fell backwards to the ground, and spat out saliva.

There was no foam to spit out, so Cui bit his tongue hard and spit out blood.

The civilians on both sides screamed in surprise.

"Oh, someone has fainted and vomited blood. Call a doctor quickly."

Lin Feng was stunned and looked over here with a frown.

Li Xiong ran over quickly and looked down at Cui Yijiao who was lying on the ground twitching.

Because his face was covered with dirt, his messy hair covered half of his face, and he was so thin that he looked unrecognizable, Li Xiong didn't think of anything else.

"Come here, go get the doctor, quickly."

Some soldiers ran out quickly.

"Come here, carry him into the house and lay him down."

Li Xiong continued to give orders to several soldiers.

The others continued to wash the man's face and comb his hair.

Lin Feng took a few steps forward and let Bai Jing walk in front of him. He stared at the laborers standing in a row, his eyes sliding across everyone's face.

Goudan's father squatted with Goudan not far away, and Goudan used a branch to draw circles on the ground.

After walking to the end and seeing the last laborer, Lin Feng gained nothing.

When Bai Jing walked past each of the laborers, their reactions were basically normal.

The younger ones only showed a little excitement, which is a normal man's reaction to beautiful women.

There was no way, Lin Feng shook his head gently at Bai Jing.

No abnormalities were found.

The two also read Goudan's inner thoughts from his confused eyes.

"Li Xiong, get them more food and clothes as soon as possible. In short, for those who work so hard, their food and other treatment must be good. Do you understand?"

Li Xiong stood at attention and shouted yes.

After saying that, Lin Feng took Bai Jing and left.

On the way, he met a doctor who was rushing over, and they passed each other.

Lin Feng brought Bai Jing to the city wall, and he suddenly remembered that it was already spring and flowers were blooming.

The fields should be full of green crops.

But when he saw the vast fields outside the city, although a lot of arable land had been reclaimed, not many crops had sprouted.

"Let Li Xiong come over."

Li Xiong was already sweating after all the trouble just now. When he heard that he was being called again, he felt very nervous.

What kind of trouble is the boss going to cause today?

Lin Feng pointed at the crops in the field.

"Li Xiong, didn't I ask you to pay more attention to production?"

"Boss, I've been paying attention, but the crops just aren't growing. There's nothing I can do about it."

"what reason?"

Li Xiong said with a sad face: "Boss, we don't have any water here. We can't irrigate the fields at all."

"Haven't you dug a lot of wells?"

"Boss, do you want them to carry water to the fields bucket by bucket?"

Lin Feng looked at the large tracts of farmland and realized that he lacked the knowledge of farming and could not take care of the large tracts of land by carrying water for irrigation.

We also have to find a way to get water to the fields.

Lin Feng stopped talking and began to stroll along the city wall.

Seeing him with his head down in deep thought, Bai Jing and Li Xiong did not dare to disturb him and followed him closely.

After walking for a while, Lin Feng stopped and pointed outside the city.

"Distribute these lands to each soldier according to their reward amount, register them, and issue land certificates."

"Landless laborers and others will also be issued land certificates based on whoever cultivates the land."

Li Xiong and Bai Jing listened quietly.

"Then we hired people to dig wells and build canals around the castle, and to construct water wheels to irrigate the farmland."

"In the first year, grain and seeds will be distributed free of charge, and taxes will be waived. Starting from the second year, a certain percentage of tax silver will be collected based on the number of acres of land."

"Of course, this is just a rough outline. You will need to supplement and improve the specific measures."

As he spoke, he turned to look at the two people beside him.

He saw confusion in the eyes of both of them.

"Let Wencheng write all this down and then help you add the terms."

They understood this sentence and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, that's all, let's go back."

They all followed Lin Feng to the foot of the city. When they arrived at the foot of the city, Lin Feng stopped.

"Li Hu, Wei Bao, you two will follow her from now on."

Li Hu and Wei Bao stood at attention and answered, then turned a few steps and came behind Bai Jing.

"Brother, there's no need to be like this. Am I made of paper?"

"Let's leave it at that for now, until the potential threat is resolved."

Lin Feng did not allow any doubt, turned around and strode away.

He was still concerned about the chain crossbow he was making, wondering how far along it was.

He had no idea what kind of revenge he would face after killing five hundred Tartars.

The Tatars still have tens of thousands of cavalry. They only need to mobilize a few thousand troops and then they will have to run away.

The key is to grow bigger and stronger as quickly as possible.

Although it is just a small crossbow, it requires close cooperation among carpenters, blacksmiths and leatherworkers.

After visiting several workshops, I found that the various parts of the crossbow have been basically completed and are being polished for precision.

Lin Feng compared the drawings and pointed out the mistakes they made, then squatted aside and watched the craftsmen work personally.

This thing requires a lot of precision. If it gets stuck during use, it can be fatal.

Under Lin Feng's personal supervision, the first chain crossbow was finally produced.

This is a crossbow that can fire eight arrows continuously.

The bow body and bow box are both made of axle wood with relatively high hardness.

The bowstring is made of cow tendon carefully crafted by a leatherworker.

Several metal parts are made of copper, and after being polished, they emit a golden glow.

The eight crossbow arrows all had three-edged arrowheads and mulberry wood shafts, and were nearly a foot long.

The entire crossbow is assembled like a work of art.

A murderous work of art.
