    "Eh?" When I passed a Forsworn on a reindeer, a familiar feeling made me suddenly pull on the reins.  The other party is no longer as decadent and slovenly as he was in prison. He also wears a well-made antler leather hat. His new look makes me dare not recognize him.  However, the other party quickly noticed the movement in front of them and immediately recognized us riding on the deer.  "Ah! It's you! And little Flotela! Long time no see!" Uracen took the initiative to greet us, his eyes full of joy and relief of a safe reunion. "I didn't expect you to actually make it here! That day  It was too dangerous at night. You didn¡¯t follow us during the final count. I thought you had already" "Yes, in order to avoid pursuit, Flotra and I hid in the tombs of the Hall of the Dead.  He barely managed to survive among the dead. "I jumped off the deer, walked up to him and extended my hands to greet him, and we exchanged greetings.  "Eh? Why is your hand injured?" Upon seeing this, Uratsen quickly thought of a series of recent vicious incidents. "Did you also get attacked by Crow Hag's men on the way here?" Uratsen saw my left side  Looking at the bandage marks on my arms, I thought I, like some of the targeted immigrants, had been ambushed by another group of Forsworn.  He was right, I was indeed ambushed, but the wounds on my hands were caused in the Temple of the Corrupt Lady.  "Oh, yes, it's really chilling. They would actually kill their own compatriots." "Despicable and shameless crow hag, an old monster with a mouth full of swords!" Uratsen cursed angrily, and finally  He sighed helplessly, and his tone became a little lower, "Well the most heartbreaking thing is that it won't be long before the two sides really meet each other on the battlefield, and our weapons will be stained with the blood of our compatriots.  " "Ahem" Before I could say a few serious words, the topic was shifted to an unpleasant aspect.  I coughed twice and ended the topic, "By the way, Uratsen, what are you doing here now? Is it still the same as before?" "Well, almost, you are responsible for liaison work inside and outside the base area, and you will also serve as a tour guide by the way.  ." Urazen explained his identity and position to me, and then asked me, "What are you doing here? Have you seen His Majesty the King?" I raised my chest and motioned to Urazin to look at me.  emblem, "I am now an advisor to His Majesty the King, responsible for advising him - now I am inspecting the specific conditions of the base in his name." "Oh? I believe you will be able to make many useful suggestions," Uratsen told me  I made an invitation gesture, "Do you need me to guide you around here?" I nodded and thanked, "It's a great honor, thank you for your hard work."  Flotra was still riding on the back of the reindeer, she was curious.  From time to time Uratsen would be asked some interesting questions.  I held the reins and walked around the base area with Urazin, and listened to his explanation of the current situation in the base area.  Walking outside a smelter-style house, Uratsen asked me, "Would you like to come in here and have a look?" "Okay." The craftsmen were working diligently and were not disturbed by our arrival.  I turned to Urazin and asked, "Where did these furnaces come from?" "His Majesty the King originally took root here. After retaking the city of Markas last time, His Majesty the King found ways to take away everything that could not be taken away.  It has been sealed up, and now most of the tools can be put back into use after repair. " "Hmm" I nodded and continued to ask, "Where are the ores used as raw materials mined? Are there any mines sealed here before? "  "Yes, there is, but we don't need to devote our valuable manpower to that area yet," Uracen said with a somewhat proud expression. "In the past twenty years, His Majesty the King has accumulated countless amounts of money in the Sidana Mine.  The amount of silver ore, iron ore, and sulfur will probably cover our expenses for a long time." "What a vision." I praised casually and turned my attention to the busy Forsworn craftsmen in front of me.  Gray-black iron ore and prepared charcoal were placed layer by layer in the furnace. Having a certain knowledge of the field of materials science, I quickly understood the principle: incomplete combustion of carbon produces carbon monoxide.  The iron ore is then reduced to its elemental form at high temperatures - but the iron obtained in this way is obviously only a rough material, not enough for direct use.  I asked the Forsworn Artisan at work, "There should be other processes after this step is completed? Repeatedly heating and forging the smelted iron billet?" "Oh, of course," the Forsworn Artisan  I wiped the sweat from my face with a towel, and then I organized my words and explained to me, "But before that, we will also put the molten pig iron and wrought iron on theRefined together, they become half-baked.  Finally we forge them into uniform steel.  " "Oh, isn't this just the steel filling method? To my surprise, the Forsworn's technical level is quite advanced. However, carburizing wrought iron is a difficult technical job, and the Forsworn are inherently deficient.  Can you really cultivate reliable craftsmen? ¡°Where did you learn these skills?  Ancestors?  " "We were originally in this business.  I first worked as an apprentice in the smelter in Markarth City. I was caught in the Sidana Mine because I couldn't pay off my gambling debts. Later, I joined the Forsworn in prison. After escaping from prison, I came with His Majesty the King.  " Maidenach's luck is really good. He picked up a group of professional talents in vain. Compared with these experienced veterans, my superficial theoretical knowledge must not be of much use. Okay, I nodded silently  , and left here with Ulacen.  Ulacen took me upstream. A river passed through the center of the base, which brought a lot of convenience, and a large number of workshops were built along the river.  The cut logs drifted down the river and were eventually received by the workshops located downstream. The huge waterwheels showed the identity of these workshops - water-powered sawmills. "I saw these in Ximu Town.  What will the wood be used for in the end?  " "Build houses and build fortifications.  Do you want to go see it?  " "No need.  " Water-powered sawmills are no longer new to me. I cast my sights on the vast fields on the other side of the river. There are also batches of waterwheels on the other side of the river, but compared with the waterwheels of our sawmills here, they are smaller in size.  It was completely different. I decided to cross the bridge and see the waterwheel on the other side.  Water-powered mill?  " Uracen nodded. It seems that my guess is correct. There is a field growing crops on the other side of the river. It is reasonable to build a mill next to it. " What types of crops do you usually grow?  " "Mainly wheat - we grind it into flour and bake it into bread.  Plus some vegetables, as well as meat from animal husbandry and hunters, this is the composition of our daily diet.  " "Pretty good.  How many times a year does the wheat you grow mature?  " "I don't know. I just came out of prison not long ago. Don't ask me for too detailed or professional information.  ¡± ¡°Well, it doesn¡¯t matter how familiar it is, just ask casually. My knowledge about agriculture is very limited. Realizing that I can¡¯t provide any useful help in production and construction, I asked Uratsen to take me to see the military in the base area.  Facilities. ¡­ If Medernachi¡¯s forces want to remain invincible in this war, they must grasp three commanding heights. The first is strong fighting spirit, a firm stance, and united hearts and minds.  There is no doubt that none of the above is a problem. Forsworn people who are willing to bring all their wealth to join Medernaki will support him fanatically and unconditionally. These people are trustworthy and can fight alongside them.  . Mednach is also a scheming leader. He will definitely do his best to do the ideological work of his subordinates. In theory, there will be no mistakes. Then he will turn his perspective to his opponent and make up his mind to become the enemy of Mednach.  The Forsworn must have been deeply seduced by the cunning words of the crow hag, and regard the "national hero" Maidenaki as the sinner who led the Forsworn astray - getting rid of Maidenaki will not only prevent them from giving birth to  If they feel any guilt, they will feel that doing so is perfectly justified. Therefore, from the perspective of justice, both sides have their own reasons, and no one can take advantage of it. Then there is the financial aspect.  It is mainly divided into three parts. During the World War, after Medernaki took advantage of the chaos to capture the city of Markarth and established the Forsworn Army, the base he had established in the past was completely abandoned until it was put into use again now - this is one;  The secret accumulation in Sidana Prison without the knowledge of the Silver Blood family for more than twenty years - this is the second part; the various Forsworn tribes who came to seek refuge and the "dowries" they brought - this is the third part.  The above three points are of great importance and cannot be ignored. Under the guidance of Urazin, the whole picture of the base area is now displayed in front of me without reservation. It is a prosperous scene, full of vitality and hope. The base area of ??Mednach has become smaller.  It has a large scale, although it is not as good as the sky, but there will definitely be no problem in supporting them through a long and protracted war. Finally, what is the combat effectiveness of the Forsworn group?  Two personal experiences related to this occurred the night Mednach escaped from Sidana prison.Under the personal leadership of Mednach, the Forsworn launched a night attack on the Silverblood family.  It is said that they have made great progress all the way, with brilliant results, and even successfully killed a big shot of the Silver Blood family - but this is all based on taking them off guard, and it is difficult to show their true combat effectiveness.  The second time was the ambush I encountered not long ago.  Like the first time, the main attacking party was unprepared, but this time I clearly observed the fatal flaw in the Forsworn.  There is no doubt that these reckless men in Reach have considerable individual combat effectiveness, but if they are gathered together to carry out a large-scale and organized military operation, the result will be that everyone will be overwhelmed.  In other words, if the military quality of the Maidenach side can be improved in the next time, the balance of victory will be greatly tilted, and it can even offset the magical advantage of the crow hags from the side.  Thinking of this, I couldn¡¯t help but laugh. Sure enough, it was the *** that decided the head. At the beginning, I thought that Maidenach would definitely lose. But now that I have joined the side of Maidenach, I feel that the two sides are evenly divided.  Having confidence is not a bad thing after all.  (To be continued.)
