Chapter 276: Recuperation (3)
After solving the basic livelihood problems, the next step is the issue of security.
Since Ning Yuan is not ready to continue building the city outside, once a foreign enemy invades, those newly subdued aboriginal villages and these newly established villages will definitely bear the brunt, so in order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy, he must solve the security problem.
In fact, in ancient times, villages like these outside the city generally did not have any protection measures, because no matter who came, these villages would surrender directly, and those disciplined troops would not make it difficult for those villagers.
However, it seems that in the game, this law is not very easy to use, because players have completely let go of themselves after entering the game, so you must not have any illusions about them, otherwise they will slap you hard.
Although Ning Yuan was not going to build a city outside, he could garrison troops outside and use the army to protect the safety of these villages.
Because the plane barrier had been explored in many directions, Ning Yuan simply asked people to build some guard towers near the plane barrier.
These towers were all built on high ground, and swarms of swan guerrillas were stationed on them.
Towers are built every five kilometers with beacon towers, and each tower is topped with a small group (ten) of swanman scouts.
These swan-man scouts change shifts every six hours, and in the evening they are replaced by foxman guerrillas.
In addition to these reconnaissance methods, Ning Yuan also formed a werewolf patrol corps and a fox patrol corps.
Both legions are directly full of 100,000 men, and their main task is to be stationed in various dangerous positions, responsible for daily patrol work in the territory.
Because once there is an invasion of foreign enemies, these two legions will take on the task of blocking and harassing the enemy at the first time, so Ning Yuan's positioning for them is a rapid reaction corps.
The soldiers of the werewolf patrol legion, Ning Yuan equipped them with waist knives, arm shields and hand crossbows, in addition, he also specially equipped this legion with a brigade of wolf cavalry.
The soldiers of the Fox Patrol Legion, Ning Yuan equipped them with short knives, daggers, arm shields, crossbows, and elven short bows.
The common characteristic of these two races is that they have good endurance and are good at long-distance raids, so they are responsible for patrolling the entire territory, and Ning Yuan is very relieved.
Fox warriors are small in stature and agile, so their main task is to harass enemies using a variety of terrain, and crossbows and elven shortbows allow them to use harassment tactics to the extreme.
In addition to harassing the enemy, werewolf warriors also undertake the task of blocking the enemy, hand crossbows allow them to launch sneak attacks on the enemy, and waist knives and arm shields give them a certain frontal combat ability.
In addition to this, the soldiers of the two legions are also responsible for killing some of the beasts that appear in the territory and ensuring that the villagers are not attacked by the beasts.
Of course, if a large force of enemies really invaded, Ning Yuan couldn't expect them to stop the enemy.
After all, in such a large area, they have to be scattered to every corner, so it is difficult to gather a large number of troops in a short period of time, because they are more likely to carry out tasks in wings and squads.
In the event of such a situation, there must be a regular legion led by the Condor to meet the enemy, and when the time comes, the task of these patrol soldiers is to provide intelligence support to the large force and harass the enemy's logistical supplies.
In terms of military support, Ning Yuan can only think of so much, if he really encounters some special circumstances, he can only improvise at that time.
As soon as the patrol regiment was formed, the security situation in the territory was greatly improved.
With a large number of beasts being killed, the villagers no longer have to worry about being attacked by beasts when they go out, as those beasts are largely extinct in Condor.
With the first batch of immigrants living and working in peace and contentment, Ning Yuan soon launched a second immigration plan.
Because the roads, houses, and so on were prepared in advance, and the first batch of immigrants set an example, the second migration went very smoothly, and in less than a month, a large number of immigrants had completely settled down.
After two large-scale migrations, the inner ring of Victoria Lake was finally no longer crowded, so Ning Yuan began the next plan.
Ning Yuan's next plan is to raise all kinds of poultry and livestock on a large scale in the territory.
In the Condor Territory, there are too many mouths that eat meat. Humans want to eat meat, elves want meat, dwarves want meat, and orcs don't like meat.
In addition, the druid-domesticated polar ice bear, earth brown bear, thunder eagle, emerald dragon, and wolf also eat meat.
The fish resources produced by Victoria Lake alone can no longer satisfy so many mouths waiting to be fed, so Ningyuan must further increase the scale of livestock and poultry breeding.
Although he didn't know much about animal husbandry, Ning Yuan came from modern times, so he could easily access the relevant information.
Captivity is a bit easier, just find some specific sites and build some simple buildings.
The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is the issue of hygiene and the density of rearing, because if the density is too high, it can easily cause diseases that are only spread among animals.
For these two problems, the measures taken by Ningyuan are to require farmers to clean the cage every day, and then pay attention to isolating some frail and sick individuals, and at the same time pay attention to the breeding density is not too large.
Grazing is more troublesome, because once the size of the herd is out of control, it is easy to eat up a pasture or mountain, and a careless will cause environmental degradation, so it is necessary to strictly control the number of herds and the time they stay in each place.
Because large livestock such as cattle and sheep eat a large number of plants every day, if they are kept in captivity, it is difficult to meet their food requirements only by artificiality, so the captive method is only suitable for small-scale breeding, and if you want to raise them on a large scale, you must carry out wild grazing.
Wild grazing inevitably involves conflicts between livestock and farmland, after all, crops in the fields are also one of the favorite foods of livestock.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ning Yuan finally decided to implement captivity close to the farmland, and each family should raise a few heads, so that the problem of the source of food for livestock could be easily solved.
Regular stocking is carried out in mountainous areas that are not suitable for farming. Divide those areas into several areas, and the herds move immediately after staying in each area for a certain period of time, so that the plants growing in these areas have a time to recuperate.
In addition to this, Ningyuan also ordered the sustainable development and utilization of forest resources, while encouraging people to use firewood for cooking.
When cutting down trees, it is necessary to pay attention to replanting in a timely manner, so that they can be recycled.
Don't uproot bushes blindly, as many of them provide continuous firewood for fires.
With enough firewood, the straw produced in the fields can be preserved, which can then be used as winter fodder for the livestock.
