Chapter 40 The Outbreak of the Rebellion

The mining scholars have already gone to the mine under the leadership of the soldiers, preparing for the work of blasting the rocks.

Normally speaking, this is a complicated and troublesome process. In order to ensure that the mine can be blasted to the greatest extent, mining scholars need to strictly measure the structure of the mountain.

Then it is equipped with a large amount of gunpowder and detonated repeatedly at a specific location.

But this time, I believe he will find the work of blasting the mine extremely easy.

Ronan had already sent all the moles to porosity dig in the topsoil of the coal mine.

The pores scattered inside will be instantly pierced by the impact force when the gunpowder is detonated, thereby overturning the entire layer of topsoil.

There are still many things to worry about at present, and Ronan has no time to wait for the miners to dig out the mine slowly.

There are no traces of barbarian savages in the frozen soil. Taking advantage of this free time, Ronan needs to go back to Black Rock City.

As the acting city lord of Black Rock City, he has left the city for more than a month.

It is necessary to go back to sort out the state of the city and deal with the accumulated government affairs.

Not only that, he also needs to find the management personnel of Iron Stone Ling stationed in Black Rock City to sign a purchase order for steel, and the other party is also the largest customer of coal.

When Ronan found Cassana, she was telling a story to a group of children.

Whether it is the refugees or the local villagers, it is naturally impossible for them to have only young laborers, and there are also a large number of elderly women and children.

In order to ensure that they can stay safely in the Cold Wind Territory, Ronan also made targeted arrangements for these people.

The elderly and children have special leisure places to be taken care of during the day, and women are arranged to work in bakeries, laundry rooms and other places to get paid.

"Are we going back to Black Rock City?" After listening to Ronan's words, Cassana looked up at him and ran to his side happily.

"Yes, we will leave at noon."

Along with them were Commander-in-Chief Arman and 230 castle troops, and their families remained in Blackstone City.

In addition, Ronan also recruited 100 soldiers from his soldiers to follow him, so that he can make arrangements when needed.

Following the road, the group arrived at Black Rock City in the afternoon.

Rudolph, the commander of the city defense army, had already received the notification from Fetion and was waiting at the door.

"City Lord Ronan, Lord Viscount, you are back."

As soon as he saw them, Rudolph hurried over with a look of anxiety on his face.

"What happened in the city during this time?" Ronan asked him.

Logically speaking, the vampire had already been secretly eliminated, so nothing major should happen.

"The first thing is about the results of the search in the city." Rudolph said with shame in his eyes, "I'm ashamed of my trust in you, and I couldn't find any trace of the vampire."

"It may not be your problem. Maybe the vampire has escaped outside the city long ago. Let's end the search here. Be vigilant in the future." Ronan comforted.

"Thank you for your kindness." Rudolph breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued, "The second thing is about the Heyman family in the Iron Stone Territory. Just this morning, they sent someone to Black Rock City for emergency help."

"Help? Keep talking." Ronan was surprised.

"According to the message sent by the other party, a riot broke out in the iron stone collar mine three days ago. A large number of miners and slaves rebelled at night, killing the supervisor of the Heyman family, and looting the Yanhui Town near the mine. A key location for the Mann family to refine steel and forge weapons."

"After these rebellious slaves had weapons, they even chose to besiege Steel Town, the base camp of the Heyman family. Lord Vicky sent you an urgent request for help. He hopes that you can lead soldiers to help the Heyman family suppress the riot."

After hearing his words, Ronan was a little confused.

Miner riots?He thought of the five hundred mercenary slaves he sold to the other party, they couldn't have been made by these mercenaries.

Recalling the confident look in Ms. Vicky's eyes when she was reminded to be on guard after taking over the gang of slaves, Ronan really didn't know what to say.

No way, the gang still has to help.

"How big is the slave rebellion?"

"According to the messenger's report, it is roughly estimated that there are thousands of people, most of whom are vulnerable people. The trouble is that the leader of more than 50 people is that they defeated more than 100 soldiers in Yanhui Town head-on, making The rebellion is hard to contain."

Ronan nodded, indicating that he already understood.

It seems that there are many great fighters among the mercenaries.

He was actually able to defeat twice as many soldiers with his bare hands while being chained to slaves.

It's a pity that he was directly knocked down by a tube of ecstasy potion at the beginning, and his ability could not be fully utilized.

"Ronan, can you help Iron Stone Leader?" Cassana, who heard the news from her mother's family, tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"You should ask yourself this question, the castle army does not obey my command."

Cassana, who heard his words, turned to Arman and other Castle Army soldiers. Under her gaze, everyone knelt on one knee and said in unison:

"The Castle Army has a total of 230 soldiers, willing to serve you!"

"Then I want to help." Cassana looked at Ronan eagerly.

"Let's go, don't let anything happen if you're late." Ronan helped Cassana onto his horse, and then sat behind her.

The city defense army needs to manage the order of Black Rock City, and at the same time it is not a cavalry, so there is no need to call it.

Fortunately, after Ronan got the horses of the Pecks family, he asked the ten knight attendants to arrange horse riding training for the soldiers.

So far, more than 100 people have been able to meet the minimum standard of cavalry, led by the attendant White, and brought by Ronan's side.

"Everyone, get on your horse! Target the Iron Stone collar, and help the Heyman family!"

Most of the people in the slave rebellion were weak civilians who lacked combat power and had no ability to resist professional soldiers.

Those five hundred mercenaries who were really threatening were also those five hundred mercenaries, as well as the more than 50 people in the lead.

Just use them to improve the morale of his soldiers, Ronan thought.

More than four months of professional training have passed, and I haven't fought a serious battle yet, and I don't know how effective the training is.

Ronan's original training plan for the soldiers was to follow strict rules and regulations, select loyal elites from among them, let them learn the knight breathing method, and form a knight team.

The booty I got from Viscount Claude - the white bear breathing method, is very suitable for training soldiers in the frozen soil, and can greatly increase the ability to resist cold.

And following the mainstream direction of the times, we can develop ourselves while effectively reducing the attention of the outside world.

The nobles of this era are often super sensitive to military affairs. Ronan guessed that this is why the merchants of the Dantuma Alliance did not try to use gunpowder for military purposes, and even fireworks did not appear.

The current situation in the empire has not completely fallen into chaos.

Scientific research can be carried out, but it's fine if it's deployed in the army. Ronan doesn't plan to be the first bird.
