Chapter 82 Getting better!
As the investigation team grew, good news in the territory also continued to spread.
First of all, the territory's water supply system has been fully excavated, and the drainage control system has been put into use. The second group of rats dug up the dams of various pools, and the clean melted ice and snow water rushed to the farmland of the territory.
It only takes about one day for the water level in the entire territory to meet planting requirements.
At the same time, the task of plowing the ground has been completed more than half with the efforts of the cave monitor lizard and the rat people. Although it has not yet completely reached the target, it can already catch up with the planting season.
Also catching up with the planting season are the seedlings cultivated in the territory. In order to facilitate land preparation, irrigation and seed development at the same time, Ikert chose the method of raising seedlings and planting them.
Seedlings can be planted very densely, and only a dozen fields are needed to meet the entire territory's planting needs.
In order to make the seedlings grow faster, Ikert also invested in Sasha, making it ripen continuously every day, stimulating the growth of the seedlings, and successfully shortened the maturity period of the seedlings to less than one week.
But growing such dense seedlings on such a small land would not be feasible without adequate nutritional support.
Fortunately, Iket had previously ordered the rat people to retout a lot of organic fertilizer, which was used to provide nutrients for the seedlings.
Every scout rat stood up straight, waiting for Ictor to lead them to see the real chapter.
"Your thinking is clear and you are worthy of the food you get as a pacesetter. I have decided to make you the first frontline executive officer to command the frontline force of this anti-reconnaissance operation.
Targaryen lives up to his nickname of "Good Rat". This small-minded and extremely clever rat-man can even think of tactics well. He does have military talent.
"very good!"
The content of the course can only be described as luxurious in this era. Similarly, the training intensity of the reconnaissance team far exceeds that of other ratmen.
"My honored clan leader, if you want to investigate our territory, you must be close enough and high enough. According to my observations these days, there are fifteen tower trees and three small slopes that meet these conditions.
I can't be sure where the long-haired dog thing is going, but we can set up a reconnaissance net along the road. With the patience of our reconnaissance team, we can ensure that it passes silently.
Then based on the number of people, the numerically superior team will be sent to chase them, while the remaining teams will be left to intercept their retreat!"
Targaryen took the opportunity to flatter him and said that all this was part of his plan. Although the clan leader did not ask him how to fight, he still wanted to express his opinions and strive for a chance to express himself.
"Kill the enemy? No, no, no. As the most elite reconnaissance force in the territory, if you have to touch two hidden sentries wherever you go, what is the difference between shouting in the jungle with a loudspeaker?
Remember! When I give you a task, your top priority is to hide yourself, take further action without alerting the enemy, and use your rat brain! Think about the circumstances under which you can do it.
Fight!
"Do you understand everything?"
"Got it! Clan leader!"
But in terms of comparison, as long as the rat people can use their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, they are still much better than the warriors of the gnoll tribe.
"Chief of the clan, your opinions are always just right. My respect for you is as endless as the flowing water of the Fanfuna River."
Not only must I be loyal to the clan to the end, but I must at least be worthy of your sophisticated equipment and unique camouflage uniforms!"
Ictor told the rat people that as the only rat brigade in the territory that was completely out of business, the reconnaissance brigade was a more important effort than the rats of his clan.
In order to prevent them from making noise and suppress the black hunger, Iket also specially baked soft bread for them and put them in leather food bags. Hard bread was pinned to the chest and back, which would reflect light and
The armor that makes noise.
"Targaryen, your instructor Genil has taken you to detect the smells around the territory. Now use what you have learned to tell me! When will the gnoll scouts appear? What about the number of people?"
"Clan leader! Our reconnaissance team is always ready to kill your enemies!"
The remaining organic fertilizer was applied to the fields by the rats during the plowing process and was used as base fertilizer.
"So you should know how much I hope your reconnaissance team can make some achievements now that the tasks of other brigades are being completed."
Overall, this tactic is not complicated and very feasible. Given the quality of the rat people, it should be enough to execute it.
Ictor scolded that although these ratmen had a good foundation, the training time was still too short to become elite soldiers.
Ictor looked around at these well-equipped ratmen. Each ratman was equipped with a long knife, and some were carrying crossbows and slings. They were wearing camouflage cloaks made of natural magic. They were originally naked.
The slave rat also has a set of equipment.
"Chief of the clan! Those long-haired dogs are used to coming for reconnaissance at noon, and they will continue to leave after the daily harvest! The number of people is variable, but it is not just one or two each time, it can be as few as three or four, or as many as
Six or seven, they may belong to different tribes.”
There will no longer be a need to invest so much effort in the follow-up work. The ratmen in the education camp will receive more formal military training, instead of just showing off.
"Very good, then you might as well speculate on their investigation location?"
In the coming time, Ictor plans to use these well-trained ratmen to counterattack the gnolls' reconnaissance and infiltration, and determine the location, number, and size of each tribe to prepare for future proactive attacks.
"Okay, but having said that, your mission today still requires some blood, so I'll use a knife to prick the butts of you rats to open your eyes!"
Targaryen replied in a logical manner, his speech and behavior becoming more and more like that of a wise ratman.
Although he has roughly understood the layout of the Jackals through war situation analysis, the territory still knows very little about these guys.
After some operations, the early agricultural production in the territory has come to an end. All it takes is transplanting the seedlings into the fields before the arrival of rainfall, and the victory of Windsor's agricultural production can be declared.
These rat people learned map reading, drawing, writing simple intelligence statements, survival in the wild, identifying directions, and stealth combat skills during these days.
Azio replied loudly, but these words aroused Ictor's dissatisfaction.
Iket then praised:
Ictor asked Targaryen, just to test whether these rat people had studied well.
Therefore, Iket had high hopes for them.
However, there are still some omissions in your plan. The enemy may have more than one reconnaissance force, and you have to leave a small team as a reserve force. You cannot invest them all at once."
If you don't look at the actual level, he does look a bit elite.
Iket was also surprised that the flattering skills that the rat learned from somewhere were similar to some of the jokes in his previous life.
But Targaryen's performance may make Archio, the real captain of the reconnaissance team, unhappy. Competition is a good thing, but it's a pity that the Skaven are not a race that can tell when to compete.
As for Targaryen, Ictor hoped that he would take a solid position in the reconnaissance brigade.
Not just as a reconnaissance captain, but I hope he can learn more knowledge in the reconnaissance brigade and become a more senior officer.
Chapter completed!
