Chapter 260: Winter's Legion Weaknesses

  Chapter 260 The Short Board of the Winter Legion

  In the current situation in Winter City, the dependence on latecomers is gradually decreasing, so it is impossible for David to share everything in his hand like he did at the beginning.

  Although a house is nothing to David, it is just a small matter of a sentence.

  But he thinks it is better to determine some standards:

  For those like Rick who directly express their willingness to work for Winter City and serve David, it is normal for David to provide them with housing, salary and other treatment.

  But Ethan Hunt obviously doesn’t have this idea. At present, the ace agent only regards Winter City as a very interesting vacation spot. He has no idea of ​​working for David, and he doesn’t have the ability to contribute to Winter City right now.

  In this case, should David rush to give him benefits? If you do that, what will other people think when they see it?

   Just like Rick, who worked so hard to run around in a world full of zombies, looking for survivors and increasing the population of Winter City, but the result is that he is treated the same as a person who does nothing? Why?

Others like Leonard, Steve, Fording, Laura, Helen and others have made a lot of contributions to Winter City, and the Transformers have collectively joined Winter City and become residents of Winter City; Leon, who contributed the least to Winter City, also introduced the 'talent' of Jack Krause to David!

  So, newcomers who come to Cold Winter City in the future will definitely be treated differently according to their thoughts, wishes, and actual actions.

   Those who are willing to stay in Cold Winter City are the residents of Cold Winter City. This kind of people will live and work in this city, and David will provide corresponding treatment according to the abilities of these people.

  I don’t want to live in Winter City for a long time, but David will also give some preferential treatment to those who can help.

  In the end, Ethan is in his current state. There is nothing he can do to help him at the moment, and he doesn't have the will, so he can only greet him as an 'ordinary person'.

   "Work? Selling goods?" Ethan didn't feel that he had to receive preferential treatment. David's suggestion was actually quite normal, and he didn't feel that he had been 'humiliated' or 'despised'. He was just thinking that it was not realistic to find a stable job here, but being a small trader should be able to make some money quickly.

  He doesn't have to think about what is easy to sell in Winter City. He can go to various shops to find out what these shops need and what he can easily buy, and then go back to his own world to buy.

  This kind of business, which is similar to overseas purchasing agents, should be able to quickly accumulate some wealth for yourself, and then buy or build a new house you like in this city.

  In the future, this place can become his best resort, where he will not be disturbed in any way, and the people here will not have anything to do with his work. He can truly relax in Winter City.

   In addition, what is so magical about this place, and it can satisfy your own adventurous psychology.

   After chatting for a while, Ethan decided to go out by himself, but before leaving, he still remembered to solve an important problem: "The language you use here...do you have teaching materials?"

   "When you go out, Eva will give you a prop specially used to learn Brennian Common Language, and she will tell you how to use it."

"Thanks!"

   Ethan left the reception room after thanking him. Sure enough, as soon as he went out, he saw Eva who had introduced the situation to him earlier, and got the special tool for learning languages ​​from her.

   "Is it okay to wear it on the forehead while sleeping?"

"Yes!"

   It sounds amazing. As long as you wear this thing to sleep, you can learn a new language in a few days. If this thing can be brought back to your own world, it will immediately become a hot commodity around the world.

Putting his things away, Ethan walked out of Glamorgan Castle and stood on the street. He thought it was better to go back and learn the Common Language of Brennia before he came over to take a good look at Winter City and figure out that everyone here needs some something good.

   "He's back!"

"Um!"

  David nodded to Eva, expressing his understanding. It will definitely take more time for Ethan to integrate into Winter City than others. If he is unlucky, he may not truly integrate into Winter City until he marries his wife.

  At that time, Ethan, who didn't want his wife to be threatened, had a high probability of sending his wife to live in Winter City, and then he would have a closer connection with Winter City.

  Of course, if Ethan is willing to take the initiative to integrate into Winter City and make many friends, then he can also enter the inner circle of Winter City earlier.

  David felt that Ethan's abilities were impressive and his destructive power was astonishing. If possible, he very much hopes that Ethan can personally form and lead a special operations team to perform some difficult tasks, including but not limited to infiltration, assassination, sabotage, kidnapping and so on.

   As for whether this special team belongs to the intelligence department in charge of Edwin Van Cleef, or to the military, he hasn't decided yet.

   "Perhaps, you can take orders directly from me?"

  In that case, can he throw people like Clausa and Leon into this team, or ask Leon to dig Chris, Claire, and Jill to Winter City?

  Suddenly felt that the destructive power of this team was strong enough to destroy the world, so David withdrew his thoughts and began to deal with the next task.

  New weapons are finalized, a new ammunition factory is about to start construction, and then factory workers need to be recruited. These things need to be formulated now, and then gradually implemented.

  At the same time, it seems that the Winter Knights will also expand appropriately, and the establishment of fifty people is still a bit too small.

   "The previous twenty recruits haven't completed all the training, have they?"

David has high requirements for the Winter Knights. In addition to the various training plans set at the beginning, the Winter Knights have also added training courses for paladins. He hopes that all members of the Winter Knights will be trained to become saints. knight.

  But now the entire Knights of Winter have Gareth Stanton and Floyd as real paladins. It will take a lot of time for other soldiers to become paladins.

"But compared to the expansion speed of the Spartan Heavy Infantry, the growth of the Winter Knights is too slow." Before the first phase of the Spartan Heavy Infantry, there were only 100 people, and the second phase was only 200 People don't seem to be much more than the Winter Knights.

  But the third phase sent 1,000 people directly, even if half of them were eliminated in the end, the number of official soldiers in the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment would be 800 in the end.

   In such a comparison, the Winter Knights only have fifty members, which seems too pitiful.

Thinking about it back then, Gareth Stanton thought it would be difficult for Winter City to support dozens of knights, but now he feels that dozens of them are not enough. This kind of huge change in thinking, sometimes He himself found it interesting when he thought about it, and laughed at himself for being too naive back then.

   "How many people do you want to increase to?"

   "Increase to one hundred people first!"

   "Directly recruit fifty recruits?"

  One hundred people is not too many, and even if these one hundred winter knights are equipped with the most advanced equipment, it will not put any pressure on the current logistics of winter city.

   "No, I plan to select the best soldiers from the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment and add them to the Winter Knights."

  David was taken aback for a moment before he realized that Gareth had this idea.

   But thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be bad. For the soldiers of the Spartan Heavy Infantry, entering the Winter Knights seems to be a promotion.

"Instead of doing this, for example, directly releasing the news, the Knights of Winter will be expanded into a one-hundred-member organization, and the places will be contested by all people in Winter City." David felt that he would simply release the news, a little stimulation, and maybe he could still dig out Some recruits with more potential: "Set the requirements higher. It doesn't matter if you can't fill up the quota immediately. You can observe for a while."

Gareth Stanton immediately understood what the lord meant. He wanted to tap talents and at the same time stimulate the soldiers of the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment to work harder in training. They would definitely not want to lose to the The civilian recruits who signed up indirectly stimulated the combat effectiveness of the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment.

   "I see how to do it."

   Maybe when the expansion of the Winter Knights is completed, the Spartan Heavy Infantry can also be reborn and become one of the main forces of Winter City.

   "Well, you decide the details with Floyd and Jack Krausser."

  Afterwards, David mentioned another matter: "In addition to the expansion of the Winter Knights, it is best for the recruits to recruit some people with driving and logistics talents."

  The army of Cold Winter City has a serious problem now, which is the lack of auxiliary arms. In addition to various vehicle drivers, there is also a lack of maintenance soldiers. These are the shortcomings of the Winter Legion.

   "Especially the pilots of the Quin-jet fighters, in addition to digging potential internally, they also try to dig out from recruits and ordinary people."

  The vehicles are fine, but the pilots of the Quinjet fighter jets are in short supply. Every time the Winter Knights attack, they need Peggy, Sharon and others to act as drivers. This is not a good thing.

"Floyd has been looking for talents in this area, and has recruited a group of people for related training." As the commander-in-chief of the military, Gareth is naturally aware of this problem, but the pilot's There is still no progress in training, and he doesn't know how to solve this problem.

  David could only sigh after hearing this, and there are not many solutions at present, even if recruiting from other worlds, it is not an easy task.

   Later, David paid attention to the progress of the construction of the lower school, and learned that the basic framework of the school had been completed, and the Diggers had already gone back to lay the road from Winter City to Frost Cold Post and Snowfield Fort.

  Wetherby-Swan brought a new question: With the construction and expansion of Winter City, the area of ​​the city is slowly increasing. Should we consider the public transportation inside Winter City?
