Chapter 569: Chapter 221: Creator’s Plow of Myth (10,000) _3
The required number of crew mbers is rely ten.
The transportation capability of a small boat versus a Noel Ship is clear at a glance!
The first small longship Noel Ship has already been completed.
With these one hundred and fifty carpenter apprentices joining the shipyard to continue building the Noel Ship, Lynn has three objectives.
First, it is to further hone the shipbuilding skills of the carpenter apprentices through practice.
Second, the constructed Noel Ship can utilize the Aladia River’s hydraulic power to enhance transportation efficiency.
Third, it serves as preparation for future construction of dium to large longships and even warships.
The territory of the Karedi Empire is vast.
The Garonia Continent can be described as extensive.
Beyond the Garonia Continent lies the endless sea, islands...
The naval military power will inevitably beco the key to controlling the entire Garonia Continent!
Preparations must be made for the future.
Gazing at the cork floating on the water, Lynn’s mind began to ponder the next step in developnt.
Firstly.
The construction of ships at the shipyard has already begun.
In the carpenter workshop, large siege weapons are also being made.
Although there’s a shortage of labor, the next batch of slaves Grayson brings to his territory can fill this gap.
The shipyard and carpenter workshop are more for contingencies.
As long as there is no crisis or enemy attack, even if the construction progress is slow, it doesn’t matter.
Secondly.
Is the ard forces in the territory.
The number of soldiers has expanded to two thousand.
Two hundred guards and eighteen hundred soldiers.
Lynn glanced at the [Resource Managent] panel with a thought.
[Processing Resources]:
Weapons:
Winged Spear: 1000 pieces
Iron Sword: 340 pieces
Iron Spear: 300 pieces
Longbow: 500 units
...
Armor:
Standard Plate Armor: 800 sets
Composite Armor: 580 sets
Scale Armor with Chain Liner: 2 sets
Round Shield: 100 pieces
...
With a quick glance, he clearly understood.
The weapons and armor produced by the Blacksmith Workshop and textile workshops cannot equip all the soldiers.
Only five hundred and eighty sets of Composite Armor!
Apart from the two hundred territorial guards led by Red wearing Composite Armor.
Only three hundred and eighty soldiers under Rose’s command are equipped with Composite Armor.
Additionally, there are eight hundred sets of Standard Plate Armor cast previously.
This ans at least six or seven hundred soldiers remain unequipped with armor!
So cannot even be equipped with the standard Winged Spear.
More protective and durable armor and weapons need to be crafted!
The most critical step is.
The vests for warhorses must be prioritized.
Currently, Rose’s cavalry, in full Standard Plate Armor with five-ter Winged Spears, can at best be called heavy cavalry.
Only by armoring the warhorses can they be truly called armored cavalry!
Only then can the lives of the cavalry and horses be protected, allowing them to survive the battlefield.
Both cavalry and warhorses.
Are indeed crucial for Lynn at present.
Cavalry require continuous day and night training until they are qualified to be true cavalry.
Warhorses cannot be bred in his current territory, requiring purchasing from outside through Alan.
The price is high, aside from that.
The transportation ti is long, and the quantity is equally limited!
The Blacksmith Workshop and tailoring workshops must speed up their production.
Without armor, without suitable weapons.
Even if he selects strong townsn as soldiers for Rose to train.
On entering the battlefield, they beco live targets against armor-clad enemies with spears!
Next.
Is the watchtower being built outside the city walls by Avery and the two outpost fortresses.
With Avery, the seasoned builder, overseeing it, there’s less to worry about.
Finally.
The aspect Lynn is currently most concerned about in territory developnt.
The waterfall at the end of the territory!
Only by finding sulfur and producing gunpowder, creating explosives.
Can he solve that waterfall problem.
Lynn had considered building so cutoff-style sluices below the waterfall.
Using a thod of raising water levels to gradually transport longships from below the waterfall to upstream.
But this idea was quickly dismissed by Lynn!
The Aladia River is nearly a thousand ters wide, and its depths are unfathomable.
Not to ntion.
Countless years of river impact have shaped the downstream!
With current manpower, resources, and technology, cutting off the Aladia River to build such sluices.
Is nothing short of dreaming!
With current capabilities, the best option is demolition.
Even exploding it poses challenges.
He hasn’t found the raw material for gunpowder—sulfur.
Only volcanic areas, or hot spring and geothermal regions, naturally produce sulfur.
According to Lynn’s mory of the Karedi Empire and the map Grayson gave him.
He indeed hasn’t seen any volcanoes.
As for hot spring geothermal areas, the Empire map doesn’t mark them either.
Besides volcanic regions and hot spring geothermal areas, certain minerals also allow sulfur extraction.
For example, pyrite.
Pyrite is a common sulfur-containing mineral.
Sulfur from pyrite can only be extracted using roasting technology!
