County Magistrate (for all citizens): I can watch ads and get unlimited resources.

"look!"

"Is it that I can't afford to support them or what? I don't believe that a mere 200 cavalrymen can bankrupt Zhatian County."

As soon as he finished speaking,

light screen

The scene switched instantly.

In the upper right corner, there is also a 30-second countdown.

In the screen,

A young player called out, "Leo!"

Upon hearing the sound,

The little flea in the locker room turned around, hiding his hands behind his back. The movement looked natural, but it revealed a guilty conscience.

At this time,

The young player approached with a smile: "How are your preparations for the World Cup going?"

The little flea smiled gently: "It's good, I've been practicing."

The young player blinked.

"that's all?"

"Isn't there some... secret?"

Speaking of which,

His gaze secretly drifted to the hands behind the little flea's back.

"secret?"

"No."

"Just enjoy football."

The little flea said seriously, "No, it's just about enjoying football, and... don't panic."

"Aren't you panicking?"

On the other side of the locker room,

Hearing the voice, the supercar turned around: "Just routine training, improvising as needed. What about you?"

The young player, hands on his hips, exuded confidence: "Pretty much, see you on the court."

After saying that,

The scene changes,

We arrived at the training ground.

Sunlight falls on the green grass,

Young players are dribbling and training on the field.

In the stands,

The little flea and the supercar sat together, with the supercar muttering, "Don't panic... don't panic..."

The little flea next to him picked up the milk in his hand and said with a smile, "Luckily, he didn't find out."

The supercar also took out milk and revealed a smug smile.

"certainly."

"That's the secret to winning the championship."

.......

GG played to this point.

Exactly thirty seconds.

this moment,

A white light instantly enveloped the entire training ground. The light came and went quickly, and when everything dissipated...

On the drill ground,

Soldiers who were just training

It looks fine on the outside.

But in terms of momentum

But an astonishing change has already occurred.

In particular, the chilling atmosphere that permeated the open space of the training ground gave people a sense of intimidation.

but,

In Han Yilin's heart,

He still couldn't help but wonder, "How did a militia of 100 people turn into 200...? That doesn't make sense."

of course,

Muttering as it may,

It wasn't hard to hide the excitement in my heart.

Right now,

With the promotion of these 200 cavalrymen, the military strength of Zhatian County has reached 674 people.

As for why it wasn't seven hundred...

This was also because some soldiers had been killed in the recent battle with the Pingtian Army.

but,

This small gap,

Han Yilin had no intention of recruiting.

Instead, they directly selected 26 men from among the prisoners to replenish their ranks.

"700 people, just right."

"With this troop strength, all of whom are professional soldiers, their combat power is absolutely unmatched."

then,

Han Yilin immediately led his men,

Head to the armory.

Find Zhuang Li,

They took out all the previously purchased warhorses, weapons, and other equipment, and distributed them directly to the cavalry.

quickly,

Assembly complete.

Two hundred cavalrymen, each wielding a long spear, lined up neatly in the open space.

The sound of horses' hooves

The sound of armor plates colliding.

The soldier's deep breathing...

All mixed together,

A spectacular scene.

The slight pang of heartache in Han Yilin's heart was instantly suppressed by excitement.

expensive?

Maintaining cavalry is indeed expensive.

It's also very expensive.

But it's undeniably fucking awesome to watch.

The thought of cavalry outflanking, encircling, and charging into battle on the battlefield is particularly exciting.

but.......

The cost of doing this is,

The resource output of grain has once again turned negative, and the figure is glaringly obvious.

[Timber]: 63117 (Daily +3000)

[Stone Material]: 49223 (Daily +4500)

Iron Ore: 41559 (+900 daily)

[Food]: 67442 (Daily -15091)

[Resource Area]: Level 5 Land × 63

......

When Han Yilin saw the number after the minus sign...

Everything went black.

I almost fainted.

Front,

Because they had to support 500 soldiers, grain production was consistently in negative territory, but it wasn't nearly as bad back then.

These two days,

Han Yilin then turned the number back to positive.

result,

The cavalry were organized like this.

It instantly became negative 15,000.

A reserve of over 60,000 is only enough to last four days?!

Han Yilin felt completely numb. Before recruiting, he only thought about the cavalry's combat strength and didn't consider that the food consumption would be so high.

Warhorses consume 8 to 10 times more food than humans, so it's reasonable for light cavalry to consume 100 units of food per day.

but......

right now,

Han Yilin suddenly felt a little regretful.

Shift of attention

Looking at the details of resource consumption, Han Yilin's focus was definitely on the grain category.

As for the other three

There is no consumption of stone materials under normal circumstances.

The reason for the consumption of wood and iron ore is naturally that the blacksmith shop needs temporary protection.

As for food...

Special talents: 15 people (210 units of grain consumption)

Light infantry: 500 men (5000 units of food consumption)

Light cavalry: 200 men (food consumption 16400 units)

Hunters: 60 (60 units of food consumed)

Common people: 2441 (1221 units of grain consumed)

......

In the list,

It records the details of daily consumption within the territory.

It can be considered that at present,

Population structure of Zhatian County.

just,

Looking at the number of cavalry casualties, Han Yilin stared for a long time before realizing that this was the result after Ning Muchuan's reduction.

This reduced the cost of feeding warhorses by 20%.

After the reduction,

The cost remains high.

The sheer size of the cavalry made Han Yilin wonder if he should exile some of them, as they were simply too expensive to support.

"Oh shit."

"I should have known better than to rush into changing jobs."

"If the quantity were smaller, it could last a few more days. But this consumes more than 20,000 units of food a day. Who the hell can afford to feed it?"

Han Yilin was so angry that he kept cursing.

To know,

Zhatian County currently has 63 Class V resource land plots, 20 of which are grain resource land plots.

That is,

every day,

The grain yield was 6000 units.

result,

under these circumstances,

It's still over negative 10,000, which gives you an idea of ​​how many resources it would take to maintain such a cavalry force.

"This is absolutely infuriating."

"This is putting a lot of pressure on us. We can only last for four days. If we can't find a solution, people could really starve to death."

That's what they say.

But in terms of resources,

All Han Yilin could do was occupy resource-rich areas or continuously plunder explorable regions.

But the problem is,

These two,

There are quantity limits.

There aren't that many resource-rich areas and explorable regions.

The area surrounding Zhatian County has long been occupied by all the Class V land, especially the grain fields. You have to travel more than 20 miles to find any new ones.

As for the explorable areas... the situation is similar.

Regarding this point,

Han Yilin had actually discovered this long ago.

The explorable areas are somewhat like dungeons in a game; clearing them grants a lot of rewards, but they are all one-time dungeons.

There's no way to replay it.

This is naturally a good thing for players who develop early.

But this couldn't offset the huge gap in food consumption.

"This is a real headache."

Rubbing his temples, Han Yilin had no other choice but to continue expanding outwards over the next few days.

Fortunately,

Now we have cavalry.

The speed of opening up vision is also much faster, and there's no need to run slowly on two legs anymore.

Just do it.

In the afternoon,

Han Yilin then dispatched cavalry to gallop around the area, trying to broaden his field of vision as much as possible.

As the scope expands,

It's not dark yet.

On the map,

Han Yilin noticed that when some cavalrymen were exploring the east side of the county town, they encountered a red dot.

The key is,

This red dot is moving on the map.

Subsequently,

The cavalry began to retreat.

The red dot also disappeared from the map.

This discovery,

This made Han Yilin frown slightly.

Mainly,

The fog of war in that area had clearly dissipated, and the surrounding resource sites were clearly visible on the map.

however,

That red dot,

However, after the cavalry retreated, they disappeared from the map.

Faced with this discovery, Han Yilin could only wait for the cavalry who had explored the area to return before making any further decisions.

...

...

...

P.S.: To all godfathers.

The book's performance was, to put it mildly, unsatisfactory.

It's been several days since the debut, and you can tell by the number of readers.

The data is also mediocre.

There's not much to say about this situation.

In the short term,

It definitely won't stop updating.

I'll at least finish writing this month's book, but updating 10,000 words a day... I can only say I'll try my best. I still need to find time to brainstorm ideas for a new book.

right now,

Could you please give me some free love and support, considering it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm still typing?

Don't bother sending gifts; free ones are fine.

Even a penny is money.
