"Don't worry, I've asked the clansmen to keep a close eye on it." Baan said, but he wasn't too worried about this.

"But...it seems like there hasn't been a lot of food harvested down there lately. I'm worried..."

Hearing this, Wulfgar also frowned.

After learning that Theos was coming to invade, their strategy was to fortify the walls and clear the country. This is also easy to understand. The Dragon Slayer Crossbow was inconvenient to move and could only be set up in the city, so waiting for work was the best option.

Defending by the city can also greatly reduce the casualties of the dwarves, so it is cost-effective no matter how you look at it.

It should be noted that the dwarves are not like those monsters in the north who can give birth to a new crop in one or two years. They are a real immortal species, with an average life span of four hundred years and a low fertility rate. It is difficult for them to accept a large loss of population.

Vassals placed outside the city?

"It doesn't matter. The food reserves in the city are enough to support us until next autumn, and some of them are collected from those halflings, which is enough." Wulfgar reassured Barn.

Originally, they planned to collect as much as possible of the harvest of the halflings outside before the war. As long as the war is over, it doesn't matter even if the halflings lose some, it will only take eight or nine years to recover.

In Wulfgar's eyes, dwarves are green hills and halflings are firewood. As long as some saplings are left, there will always be some.

The only problem is that they didn't expect Theos to take in these halflings.

However, as long as the opponent arrives at the majestic Molten Hammer City and the Dragon-Destroying Crossbow arrow penetrates into the chest of the golden dragon, this problem will be solved...

The two rulers of Hammer City were plotting their own clever plans beside this fireplace.

…

Osfir, Border, 6th Halfling Internment Area.

This is a low valley. At this time, there are tents set up everywhere. Although they look densely packed, they are neatly divided according to the character "well".

Halflings were walking on the road between the tents. Although most of them were dusty, their expressions seemed to be quite exciting.

Tok and Lina were standing in front of their tents, watching the passers-by on the road, seemingly looking for a certain figure.

"Uncle Gemu!" Suddenly, Tok stood up.

"You kid! You just stand outside, why are you taking Lina with you? It's such a cold day, go in quickly!" Gemu shouted.

Tok shrank his head. He had nothing to say when it came to his sister, and immediately led Lina into the tent. Gemu also followed.

Gemu had no children, and his wife died in an attack by a shark lizard. After this journey, the three of them naturally lived together. He really took care of these two children as if they were his own.

"Look what this is? I've never seen some of the food distributed to us."

Gemu raised his right hand, and Tok noticed the bag he was holding.

When I opened it, I saw that it contained some potatoes, potatoes, wheat flour, etc., as well as a small bag of hard bread that had been made.

"That's great." Tok was overjoyed.

Gemu nodded, took off his ragged coat, and continued: "It says that all halflings can be allocated arable land. Before the harvest, our food will always be provided by them."

"All this is the grace of Lord Theos!"

This is what the halflings have heard most in a while.

According to Osfir's policy, all halflings can officially obtain the status of Osfir subjects after the first year of observation period, and can receive various benefits in the future.

Just as the family of three barely forgot their grief and tried to look forward, there was a commotion outside the tent. Many halflings were running outside.

"What's going on?" Gemu grabbed a halfling companion who was about to run over.

"Ah! It's Old Gom." The caught halfling turned his head.

"The Osfir army is here and they are recruiting guides from the south! I heard that if you become a guide, you can directly obtain the status of a citizen and have military merit!"

No update tomorrow. Happy May Day everyone.
