Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"I, I..." Yuffie's excited face froze, she pouted and turned her head away, angrily said, "Of course I know it's whimsical, but I just want to try."

"Then you have to pay attention to safety and don't jump from a very high place." Princess Lucy warned softly.

"Of course, I'm not stupid." Yuffie raised her head and said with expectation in her pink eyes, "I want to fly into the blue sky like the bird clan orcs."

"Okay." Princess Lucy heaved a sigh of relief. Yuffie doesn't look like a crazy dwarf now, and at least her IQ is still there.

"By the way, Princess Lucy, who are you here today?" Yuffie asked curiously.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you. I'm leaving the capital tomorrow." Princess Lucy said in a deep voice.

"That's it, then have fun." Yuffie said with a pure smile.

"Yes." Princess Lucy nodded affirmatively, she knew that Yuffie thought she was going out to play and leave.

Chapter 0436 night raid barracks.

"Wow~~"

The night wind was bitter, blowing the Youshui river and the water was rippling. A bonfire had already been lit on the bank, and the firewood made a 'crackling' sound in the flames.

It's around eleven at night, and Liu Feng took Mina and the members of the Wolf Warriors team to have a barbecue by the Youshui River. After inspecting the elf team's training during the day, they came to the place where they chose to build a pontoon bridge by the Youshui River.

The location for building the pontoon has also been selected, just above the dock, there is a corner over there, the water flow will slow down a lot after passing the corner, it is a good place to build a pontoon bridge.

"Master, it's time for you to eat something." Mina turned over the pheasant on the grill, her blue eyes looked worriedly at the other side of the campfire.

At this time, Liu Feng was bowing his head to write and draw, and there was a book next to him, he would read it from time to time, and then started to write on the drawings.

"You eat first, I'm almost ready." Liu Feng continued to write without raising his head. He was calculating the construction quantity and feasibility of the pontoon bridge.

A pontoon bridge refers to a bridge building that uses boats or pontoons instead of piers and floats on the water. To build a pontoon bridge, you must first calculate the water flow, whether the water flow will rush across the pontoon bridge in rainy days, how many boats will be used as piers, how many people can be supported to walk, and the service life.

Liu Feng has to measure and count all these, and there is no one to help him at all. No one in this era can build pontoon bridges. He is the first person in this industry. Only when he leads people to build pontoon bridges can his subordinates accumulate experience .

And the most important point is that the pontoon bridge is a preparation for the construction of the Youshui River long bridge, and the construction of the cement pier requires work on the water. If there is a pontoon bridge, you can still try it.

"The number of boats must not be small, small boats are fine, no, medium-sized boats are needed, so that the buoyancy is stronger..." Liu Feng muttered while writing, vetoing his own ideas from time to time.

"Thick steel cables are also needed for connection, and a solid and heavy foundation is needed on the shore to prevent the pontoon from being washed away."

"You can build ships now, or buy some ships faster, just in time for the opening of the spring..."

"In this case, then the budget for buying sheep gold coins will be reduced by 20%, and the number of military cans will be reduced by 20%. No, this is not the calculation. After the fleet returns in the spring, the budget for lamb meat will be supplemented..."

Liu Feng babbled, pondered in his mind, and his handwriting was not slow, and he quickly wrote down the construction plan of the pontoon bridge. As long as he went back and filled in the gaps, he could order people to start work.

"Huh... done." Liu Feng sat up straight, put down the ballpoint pen, shook his sore wrist, and closed the notepad and books.

"Master, you can get it tomorrow." Mina hurried over to help pack the pens and papers, put them in an iron box, and then messed up the password.

"Take it as a visit to the moon." Liu Feng gathered the military coat on his body and looked up at the moon in the night sky.

"Master, drink some hot tea." Mina immediately handed over the teacup, and also brought over the roast chicken.

"Yeah." Liu Feng took the hot tea and roasted chicken and ate it, which must be leftovers from dinner. The reason why I stayed until now tonight is one more thing, and that is to raid the barracks.

He wants to check the training situation of the barracks, especially whether they can maintain their combat effectiveness at night. Tonight is a test time. He wants to see whether the soldiers have maintained a high level of vigilance in the cold winter.

"You can eat too, and everyone has something to eat." Liu Feng put down the teacup, and shouted to the cat-eared lady and the Wolf Warrior team, "There is still a task after eating."

"Huh? Mission?" Mina was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the night sky. It's past eleven o'clock at night, and 90% of the people have already fallen asleep.

"Chaying, raid Chaying tonight, I want to see their training situation." Liu Feng said slowly.

This idea was just something he had suddenly, without any plan. It was probably an idea after watching the training of the elf team.

"Yes." The wolf team shouted in unison. They were raided by the city lord to check the camp more than once. As soon as they heard the sound, they put on their equipment and ran out with weapons.

"Master, do you want to prepare?" Mina also accompanied Chaying, and was very familiar with Chaying.

"Just bring a gong." Liu Feng waved his hands with a chuckle, biting the roast chicken and eating.

"Okay." Mina nodded, with a smirk on her lips. Her favorite is Chaying.

Half an hour later, everyone had enough to eat and drink. Liu Feng and others got up and went to the military camp in the east of Xiyang City, and soon came outside the military camp.

"Who?" Before approaching the barracks, Liu Feng and others were stopped, and there were seven or eight people lurking in the night.

"Come out." Liu Feng glanced around with black eyes and shouted, "I'm Liu Feng."

"Huh?" There was a startled voice in the darkness, and several soldiers with sabers came out immediately. These people were all sentries from the barracks, and they were veterans.

"See City Lord." The veteran approached, and when he saw Liu Feng, he all saluted respectfully.

"Dark Whistle, very good." Liu Feng nodded in satisfaction. There is still some distance from the barracks, and it is already very good to be able to spot them in advance.

"Shua!" The veterans gave another military salute.

"I'm here to inspect the camp tonight, so you stay vigilant." Liu Feng waved his hand and led Mina and the Wolf Warriors to the barracks.

"Yes." The veteran shouted in a low voice, gloating in their eyes, the veterans have also experienced a lot of the pain of this camp check.

Liu Feng and his party went through the inspection of the two teams again, and after entering the barracks, Liu Feng said to the cat-eared lady, "Mina, strike the gong for time."

"Yes." Mina shouted earnestly, holding a small wooden stick in her hand, and slammed the gong hard.

"Crackling, crackling~~"

A sharp and piercing gong sounded suddenly, causing the silent barracks to explode instantly, and noisy sounds came from all around.

The first point of the camp check is to assemble urgently. Liu Feng waited quietly. He wanted to see how fast and slow the time was.

Chapter 0437 lax housekeeping.

"Crackling, crackling~~"

In the military camp, in Niu Da's barracks, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Who is making noise???"

Niu Da jumped up from the bed, ran to the hanger, tore off the clothes and put them on, picked up the armor and put them on.

Even though the military camp was very close to Xiyang City, he would only go home and live there for one day every seven days. Unless Liu Feng called him, he would not enter Xiyang City, but stayed in the military camp to train soldiers.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

"Director, the city lord is here." The night soldier rushed in, and after shouting, he quickly helped Niu Da put on his armor.

"Young master is here?" Niu Da was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on. After putting on his armor, he picked up the Tang knife hanging beside him, and trotted out of the barracks.
