Rainer was wearing a heavy cotton-padded coat, standing on the roof of the Mecalon Castle.

　　 The eighteen-meter-high rooftop can be seen far away. Reiner likes to stand here and look down on his territory, a land where he asks what he wants under his authority.

At this time, the Northern Territory has completely entered the winter. The heavy snow covered the soil and buried all vitality. All kinds of animals living in the wild are struggling to survive in such a harsh environment, and do their best to let themselves through this. The long winter.

　　 The residents of the north are enjoying the food harvested in the autumn in their warm homes, and the lamb sold by Reiner’s large-scale slaughter of sheep.

　　Liner’s original 50,000 sheep has grown to more than 200,000 after eight or nine years. Such a huge number is enough to supply meat in the north.

　　Also, Leiner also set the price of meat at a cost price. In fact, it is basically impossible to provide Leiner with much income.

　　 He did this to improve the physical quality of the residents of the northern border. The gods of the northern borders were originally taller and stronger. Because there was no exploitation by the serf system, each of them basically had a height of 1.6 to 1.7 meters.

　　 And Leiner knows very well that all people need to grow tall and strong are meat, egg and milk. Therefore, in the northern border, goat milk and lamb are very cheap and popular.

　　 In addition, there were a lot of sheep that Rainer had allocated at the beginning, and now his knight’s house now has dozens of sheep, and many ordinary soldiers have several sheep in their homes.

　　 When the residents grow taller, it means that Rainer has a better source of troops. With the same training intensity and time, the taller ones are stronger on the battlefield than the shorter ones. This is not controversial.

　　 Therefore, the quality of life of these residents is quite good. They have goat's milk to drink and mutton to eat. Hunters living near the forest have more meat. In recent years, the height of the new generation of young people has increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

　　 Many teenagers grew to 1.7 meters when they were sixteen or seventeen years old, and some even grew to one meter eight.

　　 Smoke rose in several villages around Mekalong City. There have been no people who died of freezing and starvation in the north for several years.

　　 But this year he started to worry about his leaders.

　　 There was a thick layer of snow on the ground, enough to reach a person's knees, but now there are still snow fluttering in the sky, swirling down.

　　 After a while, the cold wind suddenly became more violent, and the flying snow fell from the sky with the strong wind, like a goose feather.

The so-called salt-spreading in the air is conceivable, but the analogy of catkins due to the wind cannot describe the current snowfall situation. Reiner stood on the roof for less than ten minutes, and the roof that had been swept away with all the snow would once again. There was a layer of snow five or six centimeters thick.

　　 And Rainer discovered that the dense snow didn't even mean to stop at all, it still fluttered from the sky to the ground.

　　Rainer's heart became more and more irritable, he hurriedly left the rooftop and returned to his study.

　　 After finding Earl Cod, Rainer ordered him to warn all the villages in the north to reinforce the houses and clean the snow on the roofs in time to prevent the houses from collapsing due to heavy snow.

It has been a long time since the houses collapsed by the snow have appeared in Lena’s territory. Since the northern territory was unified by him, he no longer prohibits residents from cutting trees, as long as they submit the purpose of felling to their village officials, they can choose Wood felling less than a hundred years old.

　　 Therefore, the residents’ houses are relatively sturdy and will not collapse due to heavy snowfall in previous years.

　　 But the situation this year is different from before. So far, the amount of snowfall has almost reached the amount of the entire winter in the past, and it has fallen on the roofs. Reiner estimates that it is difficult to support civilian houses.

　　 Once the residents' houses collapsed on a large scale, it would be a terrible disaster for all people in Rainer and the North.

　　 Losing a house in the other three seasons is nothing. Although life is uncomfortable, at least it will not be fatal.

　　In the winter in the north, if the warm house is lost, then the next thing that will be faced is the mass death of residents, which is intolerable to Rainer.

　　 "Order the lords everywhere to pay attention to the situation of snow crushing the houses, and try to avoid disasters!" Rainer's heart became more and more irritable.

"That's right..." Rainer suddenly remembered, and said to Earl Cod: "Take out 20,000 tons of grain from the warehouse and send it to the east grassland. The vassals on my grassland don't have much cultivated land. It is estimated that this kind of snow disaster It will bring them even greater disasters, take this batch of grain to let them spend this winter!"

　　 At the same time, Rainer had some ominous premonitions in his heart. Rainer always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it for a while. He could only let the recruits step up their training and quickly have a certain combat effectiveness.

　　 On the prairie at this time, Baron Samuzha was pacing restlessly in his small castle.

　　 "Has the snow stopped?" he asked the entourage beside him.

　　 "No, my lord, it's still snowing outside, and it looks bigger than before..."

　　 "Damn it!" Samuzha cursed in a low voice, annoyed and irritated.

　　 said, he asked a close friend next to Xiang: "How much hay and grain are left in our storage, and how long will it be enough for our cattle and sheep?"

The confidant hesitated for a moment, and then said: "According to the current consumption rate, our hay can last for about two months. The snow is too thick, and the cows and sheep can't open the snow and eat the turf below... …"

After hearing the report, Samuzha was even more disappointed. He paced back and forth more frequently~lightnovelpub.net~ After a while, he said, "Send someone... Karon City, report to him the situation here, try to get a piece of grain and hay from your Majesty, and tell him that I am willing to pay for the purchase of cattle and sheep!"

　　 This close friend immediately nodded when he heard the words, walked out, rode on his horse and braved the wind and snow, and left the scope of this small castle with a few entourages.

　　 At this time, the imperial capital is also rarely snowed with goose feathers, but the full amount here is still insignificant compared to the northern border and the prairie.

　　 Some residents died of freezing and starvation, but there are not many such conditions. After all, the climate here is much milder than that in the north.

　　 Count Redmara pondered in the study: "Since even the imperial capital has snowed so much, the grasslands in the north and east should be more severely affected, right?"

　　 Thinking of this, he immediately went to the queen's room to discuss what could be done about the snow disaster.

　　 "You mean, draw in the grasslands in the east and let them invest in our camp against the north?" The queen hesitated.

"Yes, your Majesty, this year’s snowfall is so heavy, the Northern Territory and the grassland will surely receive more tragic disasters than ours, and as far as we know before, the Northern Territory Duke Rainer is still carrying out his army expansion campaign, I I really can't think of anyone besides us and their goals.
