Now Nord has another problem, that is, there are not enough people in the mine. Especially after these Knight attendants are transferred, there will be fewer people in the mine.

Although Nord plans to lock up the prisoners arrested by the public security in the mine for labor reform in the future, he is far from being thirsty. Now the mine is facing the problem of shortage of people.

The manpower of the mine cave needs to be solved immediately. After thinking about it, Nord decided to focus on the bandits and mountain bandits in the territory. Although Tami town is relatively remote and there is almost no trace of mountain bandits nearby, there are still a lot of mountain bandits near isaacburg.

In particular, there are many mountain bandits on the roads near Bligh village. The villagers there dare not go out alone. They must travel together if they want to go to Isaac castle. It is almost certain that they will die if they go on the road alone. These mountain bandits have no other skills and are good at bullying the soft and fearing the hard.

However, during the period when Nord captured isaacburg, the mountain thieves were very careful. They were not too active. It was not that they gave Nord face, but that they could not see the battle of Nord. Isaacburg has been rebuilding and building roads in a big way for more than a month.

Moreover, we often see a large group of fully armed soldiers changing defense back and forth between Bligh village and isaacburg, which frightens them, for fear that Nord is coming to trouble them.

In addition, due to Nord's blockade of the territory during this period, the foreign population on the road has disappeared, and there are basically no caravans passing by. These mountain thieves can't find a source of income now. Because Nord's soldiers don't dare to be rampant, in fact, they are ready to move in their hearts.

But they didn't expect that Nord had their idea first. In fact, these mountain thieves are like chicken ribs to Nord. The food is tasteless and it's a pity to abandon them. If they ignore them, these mountain thieves will harass the caravans and pedestrians.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of these robbers and mountain bandits is not strong. The combat effectiveness of Nord soldiers is a hundred times stronger than them, but they are like a group of mice, hiding in the deep mountains. It is very troublesome to find their nest.

Compared with defeating them, finding their nest is the most critical problem. Nord has never had the patience to play hide and seek with them, so he has stayed until now. Just after Lehman and Marco recruited soldiers, there is nothing to do. Nord just handed over the task of suppressing bandits to them, and he can temper the soldiers by the way.

Only after fighting can you become a real soldier. Although these mountain bandits are not worthy to be their opponents, they can increase their experience even by abusing vegetables. No, although the daily training in the barracks can increase a certain experience value, this efficiency is still too slow. The crossbow soldiers in isaacburg have only increased one level in a month.

The upgrade is relatively fast when fighting. Nord calculated a little. It takes at least three months to be promoted from recruits to second-class soldiers in the barracks. In fact, Nord is very satisfied with this speed, but these soldiers should grow faster if they cooperate with the fight against bandits.

In the past two days, Nord learned all his troops from Lehman and Marco. There are four crossbow squadrons stationed in isaacburg, with a total of 200 people, including 50 veterans who have experienced the last battle. There are four Spearman squadrons in Tami Town, with a total of 200 people, including more than 20 veterans, and there are only three Archer squadrons in Nanshan stronghold, with a total of 150 people, More than 30 veterans.

However, each mountain stronghold has a hunter team, and the total number is about more than 100. Nord can recruit them at any time. It can be said that Nanshan stronghold is the place with the most sufficient troops, but the troops are not very concentrated.

In this way, Nord's standing force has reached 550, 50 more than Nord expected, and all the equipment of these soldiers has been prepared. In other words, as long as they are strictly trained, they can form a strong combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Nord wanted them to become qualified soldiers as soon as possible. I don't know why. After Gustav left, Nord had a feeling of wind and rain, because Nord had asked him about the capital city of Bellon before, and there was no major news.

In particular, the news about the new Marquis that Nord was very concerned about did not come out at all. It is said that Gustav's father, Marquis TEWIN, was also very worried, because it was not good news that the matter was pending, especially as a scarce plain territory of the Principality of Bethel, many nobles were ready to move before it had no master, This is a piece of fat, and everyone will never forget it.

Lord Beth, whom Nord knew, was not indecisive. I don't know why this matter has been delayed for so long and hasn't been determined yet, but Nord always had a bad hunch in his heart. That's why he wanted these troops to form combat effectiveness quickly. I hope this is only Nord's illusion.

Before long, Marco led the soldiers in Tami town on the journey of suppressing bandits. First, he had to lead the soldiers to isaacburg to gather with Lehman. All recruits had to participate in this large-scale operation. The veterans just pressed the battle on one side, and the fighting was completely carried out by the recruits.

Moreover, this battle is not only a training for these recruits, but also a training for Lehman and Marco's command ability. Because the task assigned by Nord to them is to comprehensively clean up all mountain bandits and robbers in the territory, it is very difficult for them to search all mountains and forests in the territory.

Moreover, the time given by Nord to them is also very urgent, so they must disperse their troops, otherwise they have to search for monkey years and horses in a large territory, which will test their command ability, especially in this era of inconvenient communication. War command is an art.

Lehman and Marco's personal shinord were not worried at all. They have trained their soldiers' ability during this period of time, but they are just getting started on the issue of command. They just take advantage of this anti bandit operation to exercise well. Even if they make mistakes, these mountain bandits will not bring much casualties to the soldiers, The two of them can operate safely and boldly.

The more to the rear, the less personal force will play in the war. Otherwise, those tall barbarians will not be driven to the depths of the inaccessible Amun mountains by the northern governor of the Eresin empire. The generals who can command the army are worth thousands of troops and horses.

Especially in the future, the soldiers under Nord are much better than other soldiers because of the blessing of the system, so they will not lose to others in terms of quality or quantity. At this time, the generals leading the troops are very important. Now only Lehman and Marco are the most suitable candidates under Nord.

Both of them have the potential to command the army. Nord places his hopes on them. Can he still place his hopes on the systematic conscience and send himself a general to command the army? Don't think about it. Wash and sleep.
