Seven ships flying the flag of the Kingdom of Lute passed through the narrow entrance channel of Ma Tau Bay, entered the interior of Ma Tau Bay, and docked steadily at the dock under the guidance of the tow boat.

Because this was not the first time to receive a prisoner ship, the officials of the Governor's Mansion at the dock arranged the manpower after a brief handover with the captains of each ship, and assigned the people on the ship to different camps according to their status.

.

The first is naturally the slave soldier with the lowest status. They were sent directly to the camp of the pioneer camp of the pioneer regiment. Those pioneer battalions are essentially cannon fodder camps. Once the development mission is assigned, the pioneer battalion will be the first batch to enter the jungle and carry out pioneering.

, so they must be the first to encounter various dangers. Usually, more than half of the people in the vanguard battalion will die during a pioneering mission, and even the entire army is annihilated.

In addition to the slaves in the Pioneer Camp, the people who serve as the officers or managers of the Pioneer Camp are noble prisoners from the Kingdom of Lute or officers who have committed crimes. Although they are assigned to the Pioneer Camp, they are different from the slaves. They have

Opportunities can leave. As long as they complete a few missions, they can leave the Pioneer Battalion. They can even perform meritorious services and receive considerable rewards. Therefore, every time a pioneering mission is released, the officers of the Pioneer Battalion will try their best to complete the mission, no matter what.

Use human lives to fill it.

Because of this, except for those unlucky guys, most of the officers in the Pioneer Battalion were able to leave the Pioneer Camp safely, and some were even able to earn a large amount of wealth. Therefore, when there are new development tasks to be issued,

At that time, the officers of these pioneer battalions were very excited. In order to get more powerful slaves, they even did not hesitate to fight.

In this regard, the Ma Tou Bay Governor's Mansion did not take any action to stop it. Instead, it was a complete bystander. Some officials from the police station and the town government even made bets on this matter to see which pioneer battalion officer snatched the most slaves.

.

Compared with the lively scene caused by the slave ownership, the takeover of prisoners of war seemed much smoother. There were more than 400 prisoners of war from different countries on the seven ships. Among these prisoners of war, the Behrend Kingdom’s prisoners of war were not the largest.

, only occupying the third place, and the largest number of them were prisoners of war from a country called the Northman Principality, with more than a hundred prisoners, and all of them were in the army.

The Principality of Norseman is a country in the New World. It is affiliated to a kingdom named Lipps in the Novat continent. This Kingdom of Lipps was also the first kingdom to send a fleet to establish a colony in the New World. Later, it even sent the king's younger brother

The Duke of Norsemen sent to the New World and established a principality.

Of course, this is just the public statement of the Kingdom of Lips. In fact, the Duke of Northman rebelled and was captured. However, King Lips did not want to kill his only brother, so he just took away all the territory of the Duke of Northman.

, and then carved out a territory near the colonial points of the New World, and sent the Northman Grand Duke to the New World.

And the Northman Grand Duke was not a peaceful person. After being sent to the New World, he quickly gathered some of his subordinates and took control of the colony of Lipps Kingdom, and then used this as the core to establish the Northman Empire.

The Duke of Northman, and after establishing the principality, in order to avoid completely irritating the Kingdom of Lips and causing it to send a fleet to attack him, he very smartly chose to bow to the king, indicating that the Principality of Northman belonged to the kingdom, and agreed with Lips

The Kingdom of Sri Lanka has sent a certain number of troops to be stationed in the territory of the Principality, and is willing to cooperate with the Kingdom in its development and exploration of the New World.

It was precisely because of the Northman Grand Duke's initiative to bow his head that the Northman Principality was not destroyed by the Lipps Kingdom. Instead, it gained the support of the Lipps Kingdom and was able to gain a foothold in the New World and expand its territory.

Among all the coastal kingdoms that started colonization in the New World, only the Norman Principality was the most successful in colonizing. It already had the size and strength of a real principality. As for the other coastal kingdoms in the New World, they were similar to the Kingdom of Root, and they still only occupied

Establishing a town-sized colony on a piece of land was simply not comparable to the size of the Norseman Principality.

Therefore, the Northman Principality has become the object of hatred and jealousy of these coastal kingdoms. Almost all coastal kingdoms have reached an undisclosed covenant. This covenant is very simple, that is, the Northman Principality is their public enemy. As long as

If you have the chance, you must attack the power of the Northman Principality.

As a result, the Principality of Norseman has become the favorite prey of pirates. From time to time, some pirates will attack the villages along the coast of the Principality of Norseman. Although the Principality of Norseman knows that these so-called pirates are actually the navies of other kingdoms, they

They have no way to question those kingdoms. Even if they capture prisoners, those kingdoms will completely deny their accusations and will only say that the Northman Principality is a false accusation. In the end, the Northman Principality's status as a public enemy will be put on the table.

Therefore, the Northman Principality could only break its teeth and swallow it, send more soldiers to protect coastal villages, establish naval bases in key coastal areas, etc., which did alleviate pirate attacks to a certain extent.

This time, the navy of the Kingdom of Lute actually captured more than a hundred soldiers of the Northman Kingdom. This matter is indeed a bit incredible to those who know the situation. After all, the navy of a ship captured some ordinary farmers.

, if you want more than a hundred fully armed army soldiers, you may need a fleet.

Afterwards, someone asked the captain who had captured these Norseman soldiers what was going on. The captain did not hide anything and said that he was completely lucky. He originally planned to rob a village, but in the end there were troops from the Norsemen stationed there.

In the village, the soldiers and officers of the army seemed to be celebrating something. They were all drunk. Only a few people on guard could barely stay awake. In the end, they easily drank the soldiers in one pot. On the contrary, the officer suddenly

When he woke up and tried to resist, the soldiers beat him to death on the spot.

It is precisely because of the special characteristics of these soldiers of the Northman Principality that they were arranged in a separate camp to be detained, completely in the manner of prisoners, and the Governor-General seemed to intend to integrate these soldiers into the army after the development mission was issued.

When they arrived at the vanguard camp, it seemed that they wanted to use the pioneering mission to let these soldiers die silently in the jungle.

Compared with the soldiers of the Northman Principality, the naval soldiers of the Berent Kingdom received much better treatment. They were assigned to the military barracks of the security station, had relatively spacious houses to live in, and their living conditions were better than other prisoners of war.

Much better. This is mainly because even though the Berent Kingdom and the Lut Kingdom are hostile, the people at the bottom of the two kingdoms belong to the same country at first, and they are more or less related to each other, so even on the battlefield

Both sides face life and death, but after the battle, they will still retain a certain bottom line of treatment for each other and will not go too far.

However, the treatment of the navy soldiers of the Berent Kingdom is just like this. In a few days, they will still be incorporated into the pioneering corps and go into the jungle to open up new inland settlements in Ma Tou Bay.

In addition to these ordinary prisoners of war, there were several people with special status who were arranged to hotels in towns outside the port. They were treated more like distinguished guests and were not guarded. They were only assigned two attendants to take charge.

Take care of these people, and Leo, disguised as an oceanographer, is one of them.

The people in the Governor's Mansion didn't seem worried about Leo and the others escaping. Another prisoner who looked like a nobleman and was arranged in the hotel together asked the attendant assigned to him about this question, and the attendant gave the answer

The answer is that it takes about five days to take a boat from the nearest colonial village to Ma Tau Bay. This area on the land is full of primitive forests full of dangers. Even the best adventurers are well prepared to break in.

It is difficult to get out of these forests alive, so they are not worried about Leo and the others escaping.

Since they were not worried about Leo and the others escaping, they naturally would not restrict the people being cared for from moving around Ma Tou Bay. So after they were settled and freshened up, Leo directly asked his entourage if they could take a stroll.

Visit Ma Tau Wan.

To this, the entourage directly agreed, and it seems that they should have obtained some relevant permissions to implement it.

So, those followers became guides and led Leo on a tour of Ma Tau Bay. Except for special places such as the Governor's Mansion and the military camp, which were not allowed to enter, he visited all other places.

It is not difficult to see that the builder of Ma Tau Bay initially planned to build it as a military fortress, so he built a total of twenty-four forts, ten of which were located on the cliff at the entrance to Ma Tau Bay.

Facing the sea, any enemy ship that wants to enter Ma Tau Bay from here will have to undergo the baptism of dozens of artillery. Due to the location of the fort, the artillery shells at sea cannot hit the fort on the cliff, so they can only

Being beaten passively.

There are also four forts installed at the Governor's Mansion, the military barracks, the security station and the town government. The artillery on the forts are all pointed in the direction of the pier. It seems that they are worried that if the fort at the entrance cannot prevent enemy ships from entering, then

These four forts will provide a second line of defense, minimizing the enemy's combat power.

Fourteen forts were used to deal with enemies coming from the sea. It can be seen that the biggest concern of the builders of Ma Tau Bay at that time was coming from the sea.

The remaining ten forts were arranged in the outer area of ​​the Ma Tau Bay dock area and were connected in a line by the city wall to guard the dock area. The muzzles of the guns were pointed in the direction of the jungle. This should be to guard against enemies in the jungle.

And judging from the age of the forts, these forts should have been built in the past two years, much later than other forts. From this, it is not difficult to see that the threat from the jungle should have only appeared in the past two years.

, the Governor's Mansion in Ma Tau Bay also adjusted its defense targets to the inland, and the continuous development tasks may also be related to this.

The entire Ma Tau Bay is roughly divided into two areas. One is the dock area. There are not only port terminals, but also extremely complete urban buildings and even a sewer system. The buildings here are all made of masonry and are extremely solid.

, all the important officials of Ma Tau Bay and their families live here. The Governor's Mansion, the Public Security Bureau, and the town government are also located here. This can be said to be the core area of ​​Ma Tau Bay, so it is also surrounded by extremely strong stone walls.

and protected by turrets.

On the other side of the stone city wall is the second area of ​​Ma Tau Bay. This is the living area of ​​Ma Tau Bay soldiers and their families, voluntary colonists and others. The buildings here are all made of wood, which is for defense.

In terms of power, it cannot be compared with the houses in the dock area.

Similarly, the protection here is much weaker. The jungle is only surrounded by a wooden fence two people high. Even ordinary people can easily climb over it, not to mention the wild beasts or indigenous people in the jungle.

Therefore, in the past, people living here were often attacked. Because most of the attacks occurred at night, there was an unwritten rule here, that is, do not walk alone outside at night and stay at home honestly.

However, the Governor's Mansion does not ignore everything. A long time ago, the Governor's Mansion arranged a patrol team to carry out patrols, and the number of patrol teams is also constantly increasing. From the first two people to the current sixteen

People, but even so, the attacks that should be encountered will still occur, but the targets of the attacks are more members of the patrol team.

When Leo was visiting the outer city, he happened to overhear the residents here talking about a monster attack that had occurred nearby for more than ten days. However, they were not talking about the monsters and victims that had sneaked into the city, but about the monsters and victims that had sneaked into the city.

Lucky guy from that attack.

It is said that the lucky man was originally the target of the monster attack, but for some reason the monster changed the target of the attack and bit another patrol member to death and took it away. This is not the most bizarre thing, the most bizarre thing is

Today, the lucky man was attacked again, and this time the attack was much more serious than the last time. The entire team of lumberjacks and the staff in the lumber camp were all killed in the attack. Even the bodies could not be found, only

The lucky man survived and ran back to town to report the news.

It is precisely because the lucky guy survived both attacks, especially the increase in the number of people in the second attack, that some people can't help but wonder if the lucky guy sold his soul to someone lurking in the jungles of the New World.

Monsters, and those who disappeared in the monster attacks were actually used as sacrifices by this lucky man to the monsters in the jungle.

Although this sounds extremely absurd and has almost zero credibility, the way the lumberjacks died without any bones left has made the relatives and friends of these people extremely sad and need someone to vent to. Regarding the survival of this lucky man,

Guessing is the best outlet. For a time, the anger of all the relatives and friends of the deceased was consciously directed towards the lucky man by the officials who did not want to take responsibility. Now the lucky man has been detained. It is said that after the interrogation,

They will be publicly executed to stabilize the people's hearts in the outer towns that have been shrouded in panic and are on the verge of losing control.

"Can I go see the lucky guy?" Leo asked his entourage after hearing the relevant news.

The entourage was stunned when he heard this and didn't understand why Leo was interested in this person.
