Chapter 765 The First River Transportation Corps
Although the news about Horn has not been sent to Hotam County, Herman, who was in charge, chose the flood discharge site in the Poison Witch Swamp like a heart-warming relationship.
This is almost the only option.
After the collapse of Innocent Dam, Upper Reif County basically had no time or ability to intercept.
What they could do was just like Horn at the time, hiding on the nearby mountains.
Of course, it is definitely not the same level as the flood that Horn encountered.
One is that it has not rained much this year, and the other is that hedge weirs can be opened to reduce losses.
It was not opened before, but because the land of the church men near the High Castle was everywhere, Barney Fors did not let go.
It's different now, treat everyone equally.
When the flood comes to Xiaruifo County, if it is allowed to develop, it will definitely divert the flood in Zhihe Township, affecting all the four plain counties.
So, at the suggestion of water conservancy engineers, Horn and Herman both chose the depression of the Dog Witch Swamp to discharge floods.
As long as a river dam is built and then connected from the nearest tributary to the Divine Witch swamp, a large part of the flood can be absorbed.
So, the discussions that occurred in Tiezhamen Town almost all appeared in villages and towns in the Qianhe Valley.
……………
Hotam County, Kangze Baihu District.
In a rammed earth thatched hut, there were light leaking from all sides, and grass leaves and dust fell on their shoulders while walking.
In winter, if you can't buy peat, you will be even more frozen to death.
Lari's elderly husband was frozen to death last year, while his son died in a transport convoy.
The only thing left is the little grandson in the family. "Master, Master, my only male is a cripple man, and I can't go to the dam." Lali hugged the conscription officer's legs and screamed.
The conscription officer kicked the woman over and pulled out the thin fifteen-year-old grandson from behind the firewood: "Do you dare to disobey the order of the Count?" "Didn't the notice say, don't the disabled person go?" "Did you even like the notice?" He grabbed the grandson's collar and lifted it up. The conscription officer cursed, "The disabled person is useless, so you can't walk, and it's damn your grandmother's disease." "I'll pay for the service, I'll buy the service." Lali was completely panicked, "I'll pay for the land and change the money." "I'll send you three melons and two dates." The conscription officer snorted disdainfully and shouted to the two guards beside him, "Take it away!"
…………
Lower Refo County, Stinky Boot Town.
This quiet town, famous for leather boots and fur socks, is extremely noisy at this moment.
Outside the town office, the young and strong men lined up in a long line with a wooden sign with their names written on them.
It is different from Hotam County who are both old and children.
The team in Stinky Boot Town is full of handsome men, and the number is much smaller than the average number in Hortam County Hundred Houses.
Even if they were drawn, they just sighed softly and would not wail like Hotam County. "Are you an adult?" The parade monk asked with a wooden stick to lift the upper teeth of the boy in front of him. "I, I'm sixteen." The obviously thirteen-year-old boy said guiltily. "Get out!" He pushed his five fingers away, and the parade monk slapped the young man in the face, "I'll call your eldest brother."
The boy left crying.
The parade monk shouted at the long line behind, "Don't disturb our work, I'll say it again. The male at home is only under the age of sixteen. Don't come, just pay the money for the service."
"That's a lot of money." Many townsmen muttered.
"No money is too much, how can I transfer other civilians from other places?" The parade monk glared and cursed, "Did I take this money?"
"Who knows..."
"Who, who is talking nonsense?!"
"I will repeat it." On the other side, the monk stepped on the wooden box and held up the iron trumpet. "The fields in the family of the people are regarded as public fields, and are cultivated by others in the Baihu District! Fighting against the flood is glorious, not that scary!"
………
Kasha County, Duoke Township, and Juntun District.
The young man wrapped on his back is saying goodbye to his parents and lovers.
Wearing brand new foot-sharpening military boots, they walked towards the flute-shaped boat by the river under the leadership of the leading knight.
The woman waving her handkerchief on the shore and the old man burst into tears, and the crying sounded even more that the recruits on the boat started crying together.
Unlike people in other areas, ordinary villages and towns recruit civil servants, and military towns recruit new recruits.
The Juntun District is a major feature of the Meliati policy. The so-called military camp area means that a large area of land is assigned to the mountain knights and mountain people who went down the mountain near the junction of water and land.
Through exile and Xingda Prison, Moriyati immigrated almost 30,000 to 40,000 plains to five mountain counties.
But she moved nearly 100,000 mountain people from the mountains to Pingyuan County, the most important of which were the farms and farm people of the mountain knights.
The mountain knights will take over the local estate directly without destroying the owner's ownership.
After the land rent was collected, 30% of the landlords were returned to the landlords and 70% of the mountain knights.
On the one hand, he gave the mountain knight enough reward, and on the other hand, he would not break up with the local nobles.
But in actual operation, it is good that the mountain knights can share the landlords with two achievements.
The plain knight was once the enemy and object of jealousy of the mountain knights.
With this dynasty power in hand, if you don’t destroy your disgusting family, will the Thousand River Valley War be in vain?
Many knights and squire families in the plains were forced by mountain knights to engage in industry and commerce.
Armed fights between mountain people and plain people are common.
Due to the bias of the sheriff and the county magistrate, the mountain people basically won the victory.

The plains who were driven out of their homes either went to South Bay, went to the mountains, or went to Langsander County to work.
This actually added a lot of labor force to Horn.
On weekdays, the mountain people show off their power, and when the conscription order comes down, they will cry.
This kind of military farm is a blood tax field, which means that you do not pay the tax on money and people's tax, and you need to bear heavier military service.
On the contrary, ordinary farmers in the hundred-household district no longer need to assume combat obligations.
The original "peasant army system" system of knights leading serfs to fight was changed and became a "world army system" like mountain farms.
There is naturally a reason to continue to recruit new recruits in addition to recruiting civilians.
……………
"Has the military recruitment work been completed in the Juntun District?"
With two dark circles, Heman put down the documents in his hand.
The military minister Guillaume, who was sitting opposite him, also had two dark circles: "3,000 mountain recruits, are enough to suppress those who are making trouble because of bonds."
Now, there are nearby satellite towns inside and outside Xia Greentown.
Led by the landless nobles, a large number of speculators aroused rural hooligans and marched every day to cause trouble.
But Herman had to deal with the Lea people on the border of Xianshidian, and to draw troops to meet Andre and Meliati.
There was no choice but to recruit a group of new recruits at the moment.
Anyway, the armed farmers in these Knight Farms also train, and the meat price has dropped during this period, so they basically have a breathing method.
It is not good to use it for war, and it is best to use it to suppress the mob. "Okay, give me a banner and call it the First Naoanhe Transportation Corps."
Giving a name for a logistics army that is escorting ships should reduce a lot of vigilance.
After explaining the matter here, Herman turned to the intelligence supervisor Philip and asked, "Has the person who spreads the rumors been caught?"
"We are working with Cheka to investigate, and at present, we have only caught a few minions. It seems that there are hidden shadowless people who are operating."
"The remaining poison of the church has not been cleared yet." Herman murmured, "This is a great situation, alas."
Rumors spreading Molyatifi's biological life are everywhere, especially among the mountain nobles.
But Moriyati has no news yet and cannot easily deny the rumors.
The mountain knights are not unconditionally loyal to Meliati.
Their loyalty is based on blood ties, which is the blood of the Hemashi family.
In Horn's view is a "loyalty" with many flaws, but it is the norm in this era.
Why do lords claim that wars like to make pornographic rumors?
It is to shake the legitimacy of his blood rule!
Muriati was the best deal with this kind of rumor.
The conservative mountain knights cannot accept that Meliati is a witch, nor can they accept that Meliati is an adopted daughter.
The rumormonger got the evidence of Lulus's wet nurse and the Imperial Emblem Academy archives from somewhere.
The Plain Sect nobles were parading, while the Mountain Sect nobles were questioning.
Before September passed, Hotam County was in chaos.
Military Secretary Guillaume suddenly asked, "Do you have any clues about the debt crisis?"
"His Highness and His Excellency Catherine tried to borrow from the flange, but I don't know how much it can be borrowed."
"May the Holy Father bless, may the Patriarch succeed, and may the great justice and peace." Guillaume smiled bitterly.
