Chapter 1037 My study progress is fast enough!
After completing the patrol of the territory and returning to Fanhua Bay.
Not waiting for Brand to do anything else.
Mr. Holland led his team to Chenhualing at noon the next day.
In addition to many members of the Holland family caravan, there was also Yersen who was going to come over to learn more.
When Brand suspended the drawing of the rune array on the outer wall of the castle, he learned the news from Catherine.
Master Holland and Yersin have been guided by the castle guards and embarked on the cross-sea road to the castle with great interest.
Walk up to the edge platform of the outer wall of the castle and glance at Mr. Holland and Yersin who are approaching leisurely on their horses from a distance.
Brand also put away the rune circle drawing tools, and then went to the gate to greet him.
If there was nothing eye-catching here before except for a tall stone tower and the sculpture of "Flower Lady", Mr. Holland's interest was very limited.
Now that the basic framework of the castle has been completed, simple arrangements and decorations have been carried out in some places.
Master Holland will definitely be curious and want to come and visit.
This should be the same for Yersin.
So after welcoming the two people into the castle.
No need for them to say anything, Brand took the initiative to take the two of them to visit the castle.
Halfway through the tour, I saw the extremely thick wall on the north side of the castle, the arrow windows distributed like stars, and the numerous towers.
Master Holland suddenly sighed:
“I thought you would make the castle luxurious and exquisite, just like a palace!
I didn’t expect it. The north side of the castle was created purely for war!”
After looking at the endless sea in the north, Mr. Holland said with approval:
"You're right! If the castle can't help defend the enemy, then why build a castle? Wouldn't it be better to just build a palace?
And since this castle is built on the northernmost side of the land, it naturally needs to be built as well. Focus on guarding against unknown threats from further north, coming from the Endless Sea.
Our empire's maritime military is only beginning to sprout.
First consolidate defenses, and then develop better."
Brand nodded and said:
"I think so too, although everything is very peaceful now.
But no one knows what the future will be like.
I once went to the cities and ports on the northern coast of the Elf Forest Visited.
Even the elves, who have very strong maritime military power, have taken coastal defense to an extreme.
According to them, there are actually quite a lot of threats from the ocean. , just because the year of the tide has just passed.
Everything has not started to appear yet. "
Mr. Holland smiled and said:
"Didn't you kill a few high-level marine monsters last time? That's obviously one of the threats from the ocean as well. ”
While discussing the ocean with Mr. Holland.
Yersen on the side casually patted away the [Warm Wind Flower] blocking the arrow window, stretched his head and looked inside. .
After seeing the upgraded bed crossbow placed inside.
He couldn't help but look back at Chenhua Port on the edge of the bay in the distance and said:
"I asked why there are no high-level magic crossbows in Chenhua Port. They are all placed in the castle. .
Think about it carefully, with the super long range of your top magic bed crossbows.
If someone really attacks Chenhua Port from the sea, they can attack Chenhua directly from the castle. Conduct coverage strikes on the northern sea surface of the port.”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Holland quickly noticed this.
After looking up at the dense arrow windows higher up in the castle, he rubbed his chin with one hand and thought:
"Based on the height difference between your castle and most of the port. Say.
It should be possible to directly carry out precise strikes on some areas inside the port when necessary, right?
But most of the magic crossbows in your library seem to be of mass destruction nature?
Is it very easy to affect innocent people? "
Brand shrugged and said:
"Although this is indeed the case now, we can still study it in the future.
If it doesn’t work, we can just find someone to purchase it.
No matter what happens, exchange is still possible! ”
Speaking of this, looking at the bay scenery in the distance, Brand smiled again and said:
"At the beginning, I actually didn't think that much, but looking at it now. The entire Fanhua Bay is actually In the protective range of North Holland Castle
Of course we focus on the endless sea on the north side.
But in fact, the south side. The situation is not much different.
In addition, we will build more sea warships in the future.
The bay area on the south side of the castle is actually a natural military dock protected by the castle.
You can usually park here and wait for calls, and you can set off immediately if anything happens! "
Hearing this, Yersen smiled and said:
"This is indeed a good idea.
But your morning flower collar is so big and the coastline is so long.
It is not enough to just protect Fanhua Bay, other places also need to build fortifications.
The biggest dilemma you face now is obviously the manpower issue.
Have you thought about how to solve it as soon as possible? "
Speaking of this issue, Brand shook his head and said:
"Of course I want to resolve this matter as soon as possible, but if I think about it carefully, it is best to take it step by step slowly.
To avoid unexpected troubles."
Holland The elder waved his hand and said:
“It’s better to slow down. If there are foreign enemies, I can bring people over at any time to support.
Several allied families, many lords in the south, and even The entire empire shares your interests
Currently, His Majesty the Emperor is making every effort to develop the maritime military.
That is actually to protect the tranquility of the northern coast of the empire so that everyone can develop with peace of mind. "
After talking about this, Mr. Holland said again:
"By the way, we saw a lot of knight golems while walking around, but we didn't see any castle guards. to a few.
And most of those guards are knight apprentices.
They should be reserve members of the Knights, right?
Where are the official members? And what about Hisari? ”
Hearing this question, Brand turned his eyes to Catherine, who was following him with a book.
In response, Catherine temporarily looked away from the book, and then responded:
“Hisali took the bodyguards out for training, and they shouldn’t be back until evening. ”
Mr. Holland nodded, and then said:
"Then early tomorrow morning, let Hisali lead the guard group to gather in the wild south of Flower Bay.
I will teach them how to do it. To form the framework of the Knights!"
Hearing this, Brand smiled and said:
"I know, I will tell Xisali, then I will leave it to the master."
Mr. Holland waved his hand and said:
“It’s just a trivial matter.
By the way, during this period, I also asked someone to teach Yersin.
Because I Being busy with other things and relaxing his supervision, this guy has not yet finished learning the basic knowledge of the mage.
The research on the Great Knight level [Power of Transcendence] is still far away!
This is an important part of our family’s future development, so we can’t slack off! ”
Hearing this, Brand couldn’t help but turned his eyes to Yersin with some surprise.
——Such slackness is completely unlike Yersin’s style!
Since Hisari became the Grand Knight, he still wants to share his research results with Yersin!
Is it because he is too busy and has no time?
After noticing Brand's gaze, Yersen spread his hands and said:
"Who knew your mage's theory was so troublesome?
My learning progress is fast enough!"< br>
