The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 138: Black Horse Island Enclosure Strategy

Understood the meaning of treasure.

Lester was so excited, he asked bluntly, "Captain Costa, can you read this chart? ”

“My lord, this nautical chart is a general nautical chart, without much complexity, and it should be that the mouse is not familiar with the nautical chart itself, so I can fully see the route of the nautical chart.” Costó confidently said that he could hardly resist a nautical chart that appeared to distort abstractions and strange symbols.

“So, islands living on horseback, far from coral islands? ”

“Judging from the display of the nautical chart, the island is about a hundred and thirty kilometres north of Coral Island, and at the speed of the Flower 5 knots, it takes about fourteen hours to sail to Junma Island, free from currents and storms.” Costó wrapped his finger, calculated it, and replied.

Lester Mathematics is not bad.

According to Costo's presentation, a slight estimate suggests a speed of less than two kilometres per hour, and the speed of the Flower is about nine kilometres per hour.

Better to ride your bike faster.

He hazyly remembered that the narrowest part of the Taiwan Strait seemed to be only 135 kilometres, that is, the distance between Coral Island and Junma Island, across the Taiwan Strait.

“Captain Costa, when can the Flower sail to Junma Island? ”

“My lord, if it were mere sailing, the sailors' apprentices would already be able to compete. After all, the island of Junma is not very far away and falls within offshore navigation. But the sailors have too little experience, and if they encounter a storm, they will not be able to cope, and the chances of an accident are very high. ”

“How long will it take to get out of the sea if you train at full capacity? ”

“If Lord Lords could allow me to wave thirty sailor apprentices on a regular basis, to continue training every day, within a month, I would be able to sail the Flower out of Seajunma Island! ”

Lister made the decision instantly: “I'll have Counsellor Gaultai cooperate fully with you, and in a month's time, set off to the island of Junma… give it a name, called Black Horse Island. ”

Costo was excited: "At the service of my lord! ”

“Imprint this nautical chart and erase the painting from the cave wall. ”

When these are done, the Flower returns.

……

Night.

It has become customary to wrap up a day's work at a castle dinner. Lester is not a petty lord, and he doesn't mind his subordinates eating and drinking in the castle, which is also a way to pull people together.

“My lord, if the clues left by the mouse are true, we must take control of Black Horse Island as soon as possible in case it is occupied by other forces. Then, as soon as possible, the battle will be fought, and the island of Black Horse will be divided into adult enclosures. Warhorse resources are more important than any other!” Marcus took it seriously.

Given the large number of deserted islands in the Grand Duchy of Sapphires, Lord Likung can designate his own deserted islands as enclosures.

When it is not sealed, all the deserted islands of the Bibbo Sea, theoretically owned by the Grand Duke of Sapphire - the option to operate in secret, is a default diving rule, which must be conceded as soon as the Grand Duke chooses the deserted islands as sealed areas for a certain lord.

However, this clandestine operation of desert islands is rare.

There is no shortage of land for the first nobility and no shortage of elves and metals; information on the operation of the second desert island is difficult to guarantee that it will not be leaked, and once it has been operated to a certain extent, the Grand Duke will inevitably forcibly separate the island. Theoretically, all of the island's products will be owned by another lord.

So stealing from the desert islands, no loss.

The Tulip family, for example, has been reclaiming a third of its land for 20 years since it acquired Coral Island.

Before Lester arrived, Flower Town also had a large part of the wasteland that no one had cultivated - and so far, many places remained wasteland, let alone Thorn Ridge, to be exploited.

“The news must be blocked, and all those who know it must be given a serious warning, otherwise the island of Black Horse will surely be seized by another lord. ”

Gorte said equally seriously.

Both he and Marcus are well aware of the importance of war horses to the nobility, and in particular of the superior lineage of war horses such as dragon horses, which play a vital supporting role on the battlefield in the strength of knights.

It can be very intuitive.

An elite earth knight riding a horse in a battlefield battle is not necessarily better than an ordinary earth knight riding a dragon horse.

“Well, the news is limited to all of you here, as well as Costo, Rom and my servant Thomas.” Lester is as good as good, "and when the sailors are trained, they and their families migrate directly to Black Horse Island to live… of course, the first thing to do is look at what the environment is on Black Horse Island. ”

"The Black Horse Island, which breeds such a magnificent horse as the Dragon Horse, must be a flat green island," Gortel said optimistically. "I think it must be huge enough to accommodate the next Earl. ”

Lester chopped a piece of meat from a warcraft and swallowed it, seemingly just sayin ', “No matter how big it is, it's bound to be my island… Gorte advisers, about training sailors, you have to cooperate actively with Costo, satisfy as much as you can. ”

“I understand! ”

……

The dragon horse herd of Black Horse Island has begun a secret attack on Zhang Luo.

The work of the logging team remains robust, with hundreds of people collectively cutting trees, limited by tools and possibly inefficient but generally fast progress on their own.

Trees in Thorn Ridge in the north have been cut in about a third of the way in just five days.

A large forest of thorns surrounding the pier was cut off, leaving only a few wild fruit trees.

It will take about half a month to complete the new smoke mission, and this haste is useless. Since Gaultai became a consultant, his enthusiasm for work has increased and he has become too proactive, which has led to Lester's inactivity for many years. So he domesticated Kazuo and became the subject of his current research.

Bliss' feathers gradually hardened and his internal magic gradually enriched. If it wasn't for the chains on his feet, he would probably have learned to fly.

“Old Grande, a big coral island, can't even find a domesticated eagle? ”

“My lord, I have asked the people of the floral merchants, in every city and even in every small town, not a craftsman who can domesticate falcons.” Grande, the captain of the florist team who came to the castle to explain his position, replied.

“Keep asking. ”

“Yes, My Lord. ”

Sending out the old Grantham, Lester rubbed his head, and despite the annoying screams of Wufu “Jiao” and “Jiao”, he was still a warcraft raised from a young age, only to kill and eat meat, too bad.

But not for too long.

Take care of the dragonfly butler and come back to report the good news: "Sir, the dragonfly elf is born! ”

Quickly arrived at the Dragonfly Field, Lester saw a dark, bright dragonfly worm, like a black jewel, which was interesting.

Simply seduced with jade powder, the dragonfly worm bit Lister's finger in one bite and the contract succeeded.

His ninth Elf Bug finally moved into the castle.

But there was more than one good news, and when he returned to the castle, the knight from Coral City sent him important news —— the Coral Island merchants had returned, and Levi's tutor, Frank, had asked him to come to Coral City to receive 500 serfs.
