Chapter 353: 353: Big deal

The industrial level is even more messy. If it weren't for the city of Merlot in Aslan, the city defense equipment of the main cities in the province of Melox would still be dependent on imports.

It is said that it is an agricultural province in comparison with other provinces. In fact, the Merloz province is suitable for the development of agriculture. Except for the Merlot area, it does not even have a quarter of the land.

The real reason is that water resources are scarce and the entire province cannot be irrigated.

This is also the reason why the Duke of Medea fully supported the Aslan Reservoir plan. As long as the reservoir is built and the water can be used to lead the water to other places, the entire Mellock can be revitalized.

Some places are not enough, and population is also very important. Nowadays, people need people to build channels, and people need people to reclaim wasteland. Natal and Vatini send a request for assistance every week, hoping that the Duke of Medea will help them move their cities. The batch of people passed.

The Duke of Medea naturally disagreed. The downtown area of ​​Billy City was rebuilt and more than ten new farms were built. There was a shortage of people everywhere.

Today, we won 200,000 people. In addition to sending 20,000 people to Natal and Vatini, 60,000 people were left in Billy City. The remaining 100,000 people were all given to Aslan to supplement the Merlot area. population.

It's not that they don't want to accept more people, but that they can't do anything. The Melox Provincial War has just ended. The new order is not stable, the containment facilities are not yet perfect, and there is no problem to accommodate thousands of people a day.

However, the sudden influx of too many people will not only cause many unstable factors, but also affect the operation of the city.

Except for Aslan’s plan from the beginning, the Merlot region was prepared for this, and other regions could only slowly absorb these populations.

This is also the reason why refugees have only been displaced since ancient times, and few cities are willing to take them in, because a little carelessness will cause riots. Even if refugee camps are established outside the city, it is easy to monitor without sufficient troops. Causes various security cases.

The carriage of the Duke of Medea slowly entered the Merlot area. She found that the Merlot area became more and more prosperous under the scouring of the refugees during this period. Farms and villages also began to appear in many places that were originally deserted.

These farms are different from villages and farms. This is a village established by the Merlot people who voluntarily opened up wasteland. It is said that this is to arrange for the settlement of residents in the Merlot area in the future.

The faces of the Merlots were filled with happy smiles.

Soon came the Stone Fortress.

Today's Stone Fortress has slowly evolved into a pass, almost locking the gate of the Billy area into the Merlot area. From now on, I want to enter the hinterland of the Merlot area, except for the Stone Fortress and the Mayyang Fortress. Outside the gate, there is no other way out.

The defenders on Fort Stone noticed the carriage of the Duke of Medea and quickly opened the door to let them pass.

However, when dealing with Sauron and Cullin, he was not so polite, and he directly set up the five-piece crossbow on the city wall, which shocked the two of them.

"You are not welcome to enter here, go through over there!" Goode's voice sounded coldly.

As a swordsman instructor, Sauron suddenly became angry and wanted to stand up. Sauron was immediately pulled by him, because he noticed that although the Duke Medea's carriage entered the fortress, it did not continue driving, but stopped. , Obviously watching them.

The passage that Goode was referring to was originally left by Aslan deliberately. Once it enters the war phase, as long as traps are set in it, as many enemies as they rush into, so many people will die. There is a place of death.

The defenders of Stone Fortress can take advantage of the cover of the city wall to condescendingly attack the passing enemies.

At the end of the passage, there is a huge gourd mouth terrain, which can be hit by more and less, and there are several condescending outposts around. Only after passing through this passage, Kurin gets chills all over, and cannot send out the instructor-level powerhouse With the final word, this Stone Fortress is an unbreakable male gate, even if it is smashed with ten times more troops than the defenders, it may not be able to be captured.

Sauron was surrounded by a swordsman instructor, and Cullin was surrounded by a knight instructor, and he was also a knight instructor who was proficient in military formation.

"You can't attack here, you can only break through inside and outside." The knight instructor said to Cullin.

Then they came to Copeland Mountain. They curiously looked at the high tower of Copeland Mountain, with soldiers standing guard on it.

"It should be a sentry post, at such a high distance, if a magician is stationed on it, and the enemy army can be found more than ten miles away from Stone Fortress."

Sauron was also a soldier, and said solemnly.

Only the Duke of Medea looked curiously at the tower on Copeland.

"This is the magic wave signal tower, really big! No wonder this kid is unwilling to take the magic wire into the Billy area. Using the magic wave signal tower and then transform my own magic tower, you can perfectly cover the entire billy. city."

Soon the Duke of Medea made his judgment.

The huge team soon came to the Copeland Tunnel. Sauron and Cullin actually stopped. Obviously they were scared by the black tunnel in front of them. They didn't believe that the black tunnel was the tunnel. Shortcut to Merlot.

Several city defense soldiers who were responsible for the safety of the tunnel looked at the group of hillbillies from Kyoto with disdain, and they had not even seen the tunnel.

The carriage of the Duke of Medea quickly entered the tunnel. When the carriage entered the tunnel, the magic lights in the tunnel were all lit.

This scene shocked Sauron and Cullin.

"Is that a magic lamp?" Sauron exclaimed.

Raul, who was driving the carriage, suddenly said, "This is a tunnel specially opened by the Nine Masters to facilitate the connection between Merlot and Billy City. If you walk through this tunnel, you can save a day's work. If you don't walk through this tunnel, , You can only enter Merlot City by bypassing Gulun Mountain from the previous official road."

Raul's whip pointed at another official road, which has now been completely blocked, just to avoid being discovered the existence of the Merlot Reservoir.

After all, the Merlo Reservoir is not only of strategic significance, but also of future development. It is now the most important project in Melox's province, and no accidents are allowed.

Hearing Raul's words, Sauron and Cullin were silent for a while. After getting a report from the horse-traveler that the official road in front was inconvenient to walk because of disrepair and damage, the two decisively led the team into the tunnel.

Then the group was overwhelmed by the craftsmanship and magic lights of this tunnel.

"I heard that this tunnel, the Aslan lord spent millions of gold coins and tens of thousands of people to dig through it." The Sauron family lurked in Billy City for many years and couldn't help but exclaim.
