Then, Field personally distributed bounties to the guards, and the slaves were so excited that they burst into tears.
How could they not be excited? The slave who got the most: Hammer, got 17 silver coins, which was a fortune that many people had never accumulated in their lives.
Even Field's maid was jealous.
The others looked at the money in their hands with envy.
"If I had known that the guards were formed, I would have joined."
"Damn, it's a pity that I was not chosen."
The timid people were now stamping their feet in anger.
"Listen, people, I am now announcing the development plan of Night Territory, which is related to the future of all of you."
With the temptation of money, the slaves' ears almost stood up, more seriously than listening to the priest's prayer.
"First, if you want to escape from slavery, just earn me a gold coin. Don't despair. I dare say that it would be impossible for other lords to achieve this, but it is very simple in the Night Territory. Look at the brave Hammer! One day! 17 silver coins!"
Hammer heard Field's praise, proudly straightened his chest, and even stood on tiptoe. This was the first time since he was born that he was praised by others, instead of being called a fool or a fool.
What made him unbelievable was that it was still the praise from the lord.
"Goddess, I'm really crazy. Today must be my lucky day." Hammer felt everyone's jealous or envious eyes, and he was very proud.
Field raised his lips: "It's still the same as before. Kill a rotten corpse and you will be rewarded with a silver coin. In addition, I will issue a series of tasks that do not require fighting, such as farming, building walls, repairs or other things. I will give you a bounty."
Slaves are not motivated. Field urgently needs free people. Free people not only do not need to worry about their food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also can collect taxes, and free people have the motivation to learn technology.
The crowd broke out into a heated discussion, and Field directly announced the second point.
"Second, I don't want to care about racial issues. Just don't violate the basic law. Although I am not a sub-human, my dear Chosen One is a sub-human, so put away your prejudices, look up at the surrounding fog of death, and don't kill everyone for inexplicable reasons." Field paused, "I personally like sub-humans. As long as they are hardworking and simple and don't cause trouble for me, they are my good subjects."
After these days of contact, Field felt that sub-humans are not like some races who are lazy and want to destroy everywhere, so he is happy to accept them.
In addition, the beast-eared girl is really cute.
Asina's eyes were red, and he felt a sense of respect and equality.
"Third, when you pray in the future, bring Asina's name."
This point made Field entangled for a long time. He wanted to build a more scientific territory.
But the book said that the power of the Chosen One comes from faith and city prosperity. Now Asina is a first-level Chosen One. If she wants to advance to the second level, she needs a lot of faith.
Field is skeptical about this, because according to the belief to enhance power, the Papal States with believers all over the continent will be the most powerful existence, but this is not the case.
Today's Holy Griffin Empire has surpassed the Papal States in terms of high-end combat power, not to mention other powerful countries on the continent.
"It's a pity that there is no control group, and there is no confidence to try and make mistakes casually. Let's try it according to the experience of our predecessors."
Afterwards, Field recruited slave soldiers again. There was no salary, but three meals were provided, and the only source of income was killing enemies.
It was completely different from the situation last time when no one was willing. A large number of people were crowded to sign up.
Field did not accept all the orders, pointing to the edge of the territory: "If you want to be a soldier, run five laps around my territory. I will select the best according to your performance. In addition, I am very democratic, you can give up at any time."
With a light sentence, six people gave up at once. These guys were lazy, and they were satisfied with a piece of black bread every day.
"They can't even do basic obedience. It's obvious that they just want to eat." Field shook his head. He didn't need such soldiers.
The rest of them gritted their teeth and started running.
The quality of the newly joined slaves was much worse than the first batch. Most of them were weak and thin, like skeleton soldiers. It was not until noon that the last person finished running.
Looking at the last stumbling figure, Field was not angry but happy: "Physical fitness can be improved, but tenacious perseverance is difficult to obtain."
Excluding two guys who were clever and ran fewer laps, Field obtained 23 soldiers.
Field took out all the wolf-like people from the original 30-man guard, mixed them with new soldiers, and formed a 20-man plundering cavalry team. The rest formed a 33-man guard.Guards.
If there were nobles or knights here, they would be shocked by Field's behavior. Training civilians as an army was crazy, not to mention slaves. They were stupid, ignorant, timid, and cowardly. They were not even qualified to be cannon fodder. They could barely fill the enemy's moat.
Field actually organized them seriously and provided them with armor and equipment.
The butler looked at the recruited "skeleton soldiers" with mouths so full that they could swallow ostrich eggs. He was shocked by the lord's behavior. He found Field and said bluntly: "My lord, the previous 30-man guard was already outrageous. Why did they expand the scale again and give the precious war horses to the lowly slaves? They will eat the precious war horses in a moment!"
"Don't get excited, Kao. Look at the performance of Mountain Cat and Hammer. They are very good. We can get here and clear the foothold thanks to them."
"This, this is just helplessness in a hurry. When faced with a real test, they will definitely scatter." Kao pointed his finger to the sky and vowed, "A real soldier is born in a military family, masters various military qualities and weapon skills, and has a noble character!"
Field rubbed his eyebrows. This guy must have been brainwashed by bards and novelists.
"What should we use? We are surrounded by monsters."
"Of course, we should hire mercenaries and adventurers." Kao answered as a matter of course.
Mercenaries? These unreliable guys, Field was worried that they would betray him. History has proved countless times that only warriors from the people can form a potential army.
"Thank you for your advice, but I want to give them a chance." Field rolled his eyes and said in an unquestionable tone, "Kao, give the soldiers extra meals, one extra egg per person, and I will take them out to clean up the monsters in the afternoon. They will show their value."
The territory was short of manpower, and Field did not dare to take everyone away, otherwise it would be bad if the base was blown up.
