Early in the morning, Roland woke up by the cold, crawled out of the cold bed, put on a wool coat, and immersed his feet in a warm bucket.
This is the most privilege he can only enjoy as His Highness the Prince. Every morning, the maid will place the burned hot water beside his bed. In addition, there is a clean towel and hot milk, which can instantly restore his body to warm.
Of course, compared to the way the great nobles generally asked people to warm the bed, he felt that he was already restrained enough.
Originally, the fourth prince brought the maid Tier over to make this idea, but unfortunately he died without enjoying it.
Roland didn't like this, so she handed over the vacant position to the elderly and experienced old maid. In fact, this choice is very correct. There are many witches living in the castle, but she still manages the inside and outside of the castle in an orderly manner.
The flames in the fireplace had already been extinguished, leaving only white flying ashes.
There was a gust of cold wind blowing from the crack in the window behind it, and the coolness was biting. It was hard to believe that it was still mid-autumn.
Roland wiped his feet dry, washed with another basin of hot water, and walked to the window that had been opened overnight.
Although open fire fireplaces were very common in this era, he was still worried about carbon monoxide poisoning and left a gap every night when he went to bed.
The indoor temperature can remain warm in the first half of the night. As the firewood is burned out, it is no different from the outdoors in the early morning.
I have to find a way to solve this problem, Roland thought, otherwise he would not be able to sleep in the future.
After breakfast, he took the Nightingale, the Chief Knight and a group of personal guards to the walled area for a routine inspection.
There is a large piece of grass between the new city wall and the old city wall, and now it has become a vast white area. Walking on the thick snow, the soles of the shoes will creak.
He raised his head and the sky was light gray, and occasionally a ball of snow would float into his neck, bringing a hint of coldness.He knew that such weather would likely continue into the spring of the coming year…and even longer.
How is the defense line?
Much better than last time, Cateranis looked relaxed. Most of the soldiers of the First Army had been on the battlefield and had revolver rifles. A city wall of about 100 meters only requires ten people to guard it, and they can suppress the evil beasts that are spinning below.Moreover, the new city wall is half a meter taller than the previous stone wall, and it is difficult for the wolf species to jump directly to the top of the city, which is entirely for soldiers to practice target shooting.As long as there are no mixed evil beasts, these monsters will not cross the defense line.
That's good.
Roland ascended the city wall, and the soldiers along the way raised their heads and saluted him one after another.
Judging from this spirit alone, it is completely different from the original militia soldiers.
At that time, although everyone stood on the wall and seemed to be spearing out the wooden gun in an orderly manner, it was just a conditioned reflex formed by repeated training of one action.
Their eyes were full of numbness and their movements were stiff. If you look closely, you could find that most people's legs were shaking slightly.
Now the soldiers' eyes showed a confident look. After performing their salute, they turned their sights forward again and continued to monitor the battlefield.
Walking along the city wall to the side of the hidden forest, it seems much more lively.
The temporary residences built for serfs and escaped people were arranged in this area. Looking down from the wall, you can see long earth slopes arranged in parallel one by one, like uneven wavy lines.
There are more than ten houses inside each raised slope, and the structure is exactly the same as the cave.
Thick soil walls can maintain indoor temperature. With the heating artifact, the linen can be kept away from the cold with a cover.
The entire residential area is divided into two large pieces. The area close to the city wall is called the West District, which is used to resettle escapees; the east district far from the city wall is divided into serfs.
Every day, the city hall will send people here to distribute food and charcoal, and the fugitives also need to provide logistics transportation for the First Army guarding the city wall; as for the serfs, most of them have saved enough of the wheat they need, and except for some active-minded people who go out to find jobs for chores and earn extra money for themselves, others rarely leave warm houses.
At this moment, a fierce dispute suddenly came from the junction of the east and west areas. Roland looked in the sound and saw a group of people surrounding the avenue in the center of the residential area, arguing loudly.
One of them was wearing a blue and white uniform and seemed to be a clerk at the city hall.
Soon the quarrel escalated into a fight, and the two groups of people quarreled and the scene was in chaos.
Your Highness?Carter asked.
Let's go and see, Roland nodded.
The group came to the troubled place, and the chief knight took the lead and rushed straight into the fighter crowd. In two or three strokes, he knocked several of the most violent people to the ground.
Roland's personal guards also drew their swords and shouted that everyone would stop, and the scene was quickly controlled.
After discovering that the person coming was the Lord, two waves of people fell to the ground together.
May I have your name?Roland looked at the clerk who was punched twice in the face and frowned, "What happened here? Who will attack you first?"
Your Highness, I am Koyahavius, he covered his face and shouted, "It's the damn escapee who took the lead, dressed in brown linen!"I was still distributing food, and he pounced on him like a vicious dog.
The escaped man pointed at by Koya looked up and said, Your Highness, things are not what he said.These people colluded with the serfs to extort us, and every serving of porridge has to be charged for money. When you took us in, you clearly said that these were distributed for free!
Roland was a little surprised that the fleeing people from the East had been sorted out by the city hall. All craftsmen, people with specialties or literacy were moved into the link, and the rest were ordinary civilians.
However, from the tone and words of his speech, it was not much like a civilian could say it.
In comparison, the city hall member who spoke insulting words such as damn, evil dogs, etc. was really disappointing.
Since he has a name and a surname... he is probably the knights who surrendered to Duke Ryan.
I did say such words before you were officially included in the border town, the maize and residence were free. Roland repeated it in front of all the escaped people, and now, this statement is still valid!
Your Highness is kind!
Long live Lord!
Thank you Your Highness!
The escaped civilian kowtowed and shouted.
And Koyahavius's face suddenly turned ashen.
However, fighting and injuring people in the territory also violates the law, especially attacking a member of the city hall. Roland signaled to his personal guards, arresting all the fugitives and serfs who had beaten people and brought them to the castle, and I will personally judge the fight.
He paused, then looked at Koya with great interest. I also wanted to ask you what the hell is going on with the paid porridge.
