There are even people who can recite the contents of the first and second issues of the newspaper.

　　 Although they don't know all the characters, they listened to the newspaper readers a few times, and they all listened very carefully, especially the last few editions of the story. They all remembered them quite clearly.

　　 In addition, the forum dedicated to commending outstanding people is also quite popular.

　　 Nowadays, many people look at that page as soon as they get the newspaper, wanting to know who is praised again.

　　 People who are praised will basically become "stars" in Richard's territory, and their status among residents will be much higher.

　　 Therefore, many people are working very hard, hoping that one day they can be on this page, and be proud of their ancestors!

　　 Well, in the eyes of the people on the territory, being able to be on that page is a very glorious thing!

　　 So, this small layout greatly enhanced the enthusiasm of the people in Richard's domain.

　　 In the next period of time, Richard successively perfected the city's street lighting system, and then started to connect electricity to the homes of residents in the city after the knowledge of electricity usage was about the same.

　　 These electricity is of course not free.

　　 of course not expensive.

　　Each household charges 5 to 10 copper coins for electricity consumption per month.

　　 Richard did not install an electric meter, and basically only charged 5 copper coins.

　　The reason why he proposed a plan based on electricity consumption was because he was worried that some people were wasting electricity.

　　 But his worry is unnecessary.

The residents of 　　 are quite conscious and fearful of the "magic power" of electricity. They don't use much electricity every day except for necessary lighting.

　　 After the electricity was available, the residents of the territory were absolutely respectful of Richard.

　　 Under such circumstances, Richard quickly won another chance to draw a lottery.

　　 The prizes in this draw are pretty good.

　　 Richard's physical fitness has been improved to 3.5 times the level of ordinary people.

　　 This level is already comparable to a strong tauren.

　　 In addition, Richard also drew a new magic.

　　 is not the ability to control fire.

　　 is a wind-related magic, that is, the primary wind control ability.

　　 Wind and fire are a good match.

　　 The only magician Richard sees in this world now is the half-elf girl.

　　 However, more than a month later, the half-elf girl did not know where she had gone, and did not appear again.

　　 He really wants to know what level of magic he is in this world.

　　 "I wonder if I can see her again?"

　　 Richard thought.

　　 Richard did not think too much about this matter.

　　 After the completion of the hydropower station, Richard asked the horse thieves to build some defensive measures around the hydropower station and the dam.

　　 For example, a small castle that integrates watchtowers, arrow towers, and residential functions.

This kind of small castle has a cylindrical shape with a diameter of about 10 meters and a height of about 20 meters. It can accommodate dozens of people. The gate is made of a very thick iron gate, which is very difficult to break and is not afraid of fire. Attack, even if the first layer is captured, the second layer can continue to defend.

　　 usually stores some food and water, even if it is besieged, the soldiers inside can hold on for a long time.

　　 This kind of small castle was also designed by Richard. He knows some military affairs, and there are many such castles in the other world. Richard has seen many of them before, but it is not difficult to design them.

　　 Such small castles are also connected to some thick walls to protect the hydroelectric power station.

　　 Richard plans to station an army of fifty men here to protect the hydroelectric power station.

　　 The army in the future territory is divided into two types: garrison and army that can be mobilized to fight at any time.

　　 The main role of the garrison is to garrison and defend the city and facilities. The requirements for soldiers inside are not so high, and the requirements for age are relaxed. Of course, the requirements for loyalty are not low.

　　 Under normal circumstances, it is necessary for the entire family to move to Richard’s territory to join the army.

　　 Some people of unknown origin will not be accepted by Richard unless they pass the long observation period.

　　 The last time the horse thieves were spies, Richard didn't want to happen again.

　　 And the city's tap water system has begun to start one after another.

　　 The whole city is completely new.

When 　　 tap water was activated, it also surprised the residents of the entire territory for a while.

　　 When the tap water system was started, almost two months had passed since the locust plague.

　　 If you follow the normal rhythm, now it’s time for the autumn harvest.

　　 However, I couldn't see any grain in the field, and all the grain was eaten by the locusts.

　　 As the temperature drops, the locusts are slowly disappearing, but the damage caused by the locusts is not so easy to stop.

　　 The food is all eaten, even if all the locusts die...what's the point?

　　According to the news received from some businessmen who come every day, the insurgents in the interior are getting more and more uproar and have swept many provinces of the kingdom.

　　 The number of refugees is increasing sharply.

　　 Not all refugees will join the rebel army.

　　 After all, everyone knows that once a rebel army is suppressed, it is a matter of beheading.

　　 While building his territory, Richard did not forget to increase his military power.

　　 After all the centaurs and horse tribes joined, almost half of them were able to fight, almost a thousand.

　　In this way, Richard is equivalent to having a thousand soldiers more fierce than cavalry.

　　 After another withdrawal, Richard was equipped with full armor and weapons for these centaurs, which cost a lot of money.

　　 But in Richard's opinion, the money is worth it.

　　 Then the number of fox archers expanded to three hundred.

　　The number of crossbowmen has been expanded to eight hundred. The age of these crossbowmen is very wide, and they can be under the age of forty-five. They will be quite good for defending the city.

　　 The number of elite human soldiers has never been increased, and there are only 1,200 now.

　　 At this time, because Richard's requirements were very high, the population of the territory was still relatively small.

　　 In addition, Richard also summoned a group of garrisons in their 30s. The number was small, only two hundred. They were stationed at hydroelectric power stations and agricultural bases, and they were also responsible for public security patrols.

　　 "Lord, many refugees!"

　　 On this day, Richard received the report.

　　In this period of time, refugees have occasionally come, but there are no large numbers of refugees.

　　 After all, the border area.

　　In addition, Richard wiped out more than 8,000 horse thieves... which also led to a significant reduction in the number of refugees.

　　 However, a large number of refugees arrived on this day, and the number is still quite large, there are thousands of people!

　　When these refugees fled, they also panicked and didn't know where they fled.

　　 While on the way to fleeing, many of these refugees died. There are basically no refugees who are too old. It is estimated that they can't stand it anymore and died on the way.

　　 Richard dispatched the army and governors, and began to gather these refugees in accordance with the regulations on refugee admission.

　　As many refugees were too hungry and couldn't walk anymore, Richard first let people cook a lot of porridge, and each handed out a small bowl.

　　 "Don't grab, don't grab, whoever dares to grab someone else, don't worry about killing!"

　　 There was some confusion when he was making porridge, but he was quickly overwhelmed by Richard's thunder method.

　　 So, the refugees became more disciplined, and only after they received a small bowl of porridge and drank it, did Richard let them serve a second bowl of porridge.

　　 is posted this way because when a person is extremely hungry and sends too much food at once, this person is likely to choke to death.

　　 "Where are you from?"

　　 After these refugees ate the porridge, Richard personally asked a man who looked good.

The man saw that Richard was guarded by a large number of soldiers, knowing that he was the big man here, and he quickly stood up and said, "My lord, we came from Moshicheng, where it was captured by the rebels. We don’t want to be captured by the rebels. Drag the family and escaped. After escaping, they encountered a few insurgents in chaos. They had to flee all the way to the northeast where there were few people. They fled for several days before fleeing here."

　　Richard's territory is located in the northeast of the kingdom, southwest of the orc kingdom, a proper border area.

　　 Richard said: "Has the rebel army started a large-scale attack on the city?"

The man said: "Yes, my lord, they are of a lot of scale. It is said that there are different factions that attacked the city of Inkstone. It is said that it was led by a saint. There are tens of thousands of people. They have seen strong men. Just grab it and serve as a strong man, and let you rush to the front as cannon fodder when fighting, and we can only escape."

　　 Richard asked a few more questions and got a rough idea of ​​the situation.

　　 In short, the situation in the kingdom is getting chaotic.

　　 With the passage of time, the food crisis began to appear completely, and more and more people were involved in uprisings.

　　 After all, people are starving to death, so you have to resist, right?

　　 This man used to be a teacher who taught to a noble child. He took a family of four and escaped for many days before he escaped here.

　　 Richard took him in and sent someone to settle him down.

　　 There is a shortage of teachers in his school.

　　 Immediately after these refugees were also registered, they were successively settled in special refugee areas.

　　The admission and treatment of these refugees remains the same as the previous refugees.

　　 Some strong, reliable refugees will be absorbed into the army.

　　 As for other refugees, as long as they are willing to work, they can get a lot of wages every day, enough to support their families.

　　 In troubled times, it would be nice to have a bite to survive.

　　 Ordinary nobles do not want to pay attention to these refugees at all.

　　 Otherwise, they have fled for so long and passed through a lot of aristocratic territories. Why do they keep fleeing?

　　 Richard's willingness to take in, also made these refugees grateful.

　　 The next day, some refugees joined the work.

　　 From this day on, the number of refugees began to increase again.

　　 After the uprising army rioted, more and more refugees flee, and more refugees fleeing to the border, after all, the border uprising army has not arrived yet.

　　 And there are more than one rebel army...the people inside are mixed, and some rebels also burned, killed and looted everywhere, and they did not do much better than horse thieves.

　　 These refugees, Richard sent people to take them in strictly in accordance with the regulations he formulated.

　　 From Richard's point of view, these are the population of the future territory.

　　 Under such circumstances, it didn't take long for the number of people in Richard's territory to exceed 30,000.

　　The army of human soldiers under him has finally expanded to three, from 1,000 to 3,000.

　　 Richard promoted three new corps commanders from the previous veterans, and Jim was promoted from the corps commander to the big corps commander.

　　 Of course, the Thousand-member Army is actually the smallest size of the Army. First configure it according to this size. When there are more people in the future, you can make other plans.

Chapter 0102 Anti-Magic Training! intelligence! King's conscription team!

　　 "Ha~"

　　 A large number of soldiers are training on the martial arts field of the barracks.

　　 Richard’s barracks were built so large that they could accommodate tens of thousands of people.

　　 Of course, some subsequent dormitories are still under construction.

　　 Now the dormitory in the barracks can accommodate thousands of people.

　　 The military camp’s dormitory is very simple, with high and low beds, and a room with ten people, which happens to be a small team.

　　 It’s not a wartime state. Every soldier has one day off on weekends. Those who live in the city can go home once every Wednesday night.

　　 This is considering the need for some soldiers to reunite with their families after they get married.
