('

I have grown up in the desert since I was a child. The desert climate is extremely harsh. During the day, it is like being in a stove and the night is like an ice cellar. This is nothing. What is even more terrifying than the day and night are all kinds of monsters in the desert. I grew up in such an environment.

This is an ancient desert tribe with a large number of people, but no one knows who they are and where they come from. In the end, they position themselves as desert people. All this is because the desert people do not have their own words, causing their history to be lost in the river of time. [.br/> It was not until the people of my family appeared that there was some improvement. The ancestors said that desert people are simple and friendly in nature, just teach words, and it would be better not to mention all the great principles and right and wrong, so our tribe settled in the desert tribe.

Thousands of years have passed in a flash.

Until I was born, since I became sensible, my elders taught me various knowledge, such as civil affairs, military affairs, city affairs, and government affairs. At first, I didn’t understand why I taught me these things. When I became an adult, my elders told me the origin of my clan.

My name is Li Gu. The reason why I gave me the word "入" is entirely the meaning of hometown. Even though my family lived in the desert for a few years ago, we have never forgotten our hometown. It was a city outside the desert called "Xiliang".

Our clan is a loyal servant of the Li family of Gaochang Wangting in Xiliang, so we also follow the Li family's surname Li. People from my clan have always served as the manager of the Li family's royal family and serve as the manager of the lord's mansion in Xiliang City. It can be said that the entire Xiliang City is the result of the ancestors of my clan. In this regard, our clan attaches importance to Xiliang City more than to Gaochang Wangting.

The ancestors said that one night, the Celestial Army suddenly entered the city, killed people when they saw them, and burned them when they saw them. They were a group of demons. There were soldiers and elite troops in Xiliang City, but could they resist countless armies in the Celestial Empire?

So, the Gaochang royal family led their direct descendants to escape, but the people of our clan got lost with the Gaochang royal family while they were running away.

At that time, the token of the city lord of Xiliang City was kept in the hands of the ancestors and was taken out of Xiliang City together. Unfortunately, in the desert, the ancestor lost the token of the city lord and could never be retrieved.

This has become a regret for our clan and is one of the important tasks for life, to recover the Xiliang City Order.

Secondly, after years of warning, no matter who gets the order of Xiliang City, our clan will send a representative to serve as the manager of the Xiliang City City Lord's Mansion and a loyal auxiliary city lord.

Therefore, our clan will select one person from each generation of newborn babies and use all resources to teach this baby. In my generation, this represents me, Li Gu.

Although I yearn for Xiliang City, there has never been a city lord in Xiliang City after thousands of years. The talents trained by our clan are waiting for the death of old age every day. As for me? It is no exception. I don’t have to do anything here, and I will wait day by day until the day when I die.

Suddenly one day, the elders of the clan called me over and told me that my mission had arrived. As long as I left the tribe and walked south, I could reach Xiliang City, where there was a city lord waiting for me.

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for me, but the elders did not allow me to stay for too long. They immediately threw the simple greetings to me and asked me to set off immediately and shouted and rushed. I could see the desire and excitement in the eyes of the elders. After all, they were also selected people, but they were already old.

There weren't many choices. I picked up a simple greeting and left. When I walked out of the tribe, my friend Gotulu was secretly followed by people from the tribe, saying that I should protect me.

It is natural to have a bodyguard. After all, the people in the Desert Tribe are strong and have excellent combat power. They fight against all kinds of monsters in the desert every day and develop good skills. My good friend Gotulu is no exception. He is still a poem among his peers. Unfortunately, the Desert Tribe does not advocate personal force. The Desert Tribe emphasizes unity, regardless of height, and treats everyone equally.

After walking for nearly a month, many monsters appeared on the road, all of which were settled by Gotulu.

Gotulu had never seen what a city looked like, and I had never seen it either, so I couldn't say it, so of course, so I came here, but when we walked out of the desert and saw a city like a city, and when we got closer, we saw the word "Xiliang" written on the city gate, I knew that this was the hometown that my tribe members dreamed of coming back.

However, this hometown is too dilapidated? The city walls have collapsed locations, and there is no simple repair after the collapse. No wonder the elders rushed me out in a hurry. I'm afraid the city lord is not proficient in these things.

After meeting the city lord, I had almost no unnecessary nonsense, so I became the manager of the city lord's mansion. The city lord didn't even ask about my origin, and then began to study the issue of recruitment and garrisoning and consolidating the city wall.

I did not answer the question of the city lord immediately, and the city lord did not mean to ask for my opinion. It seemed that I only needed my good help, but for this kind of thing, wouldn’t the training of my ancestors be in vain?

Therefore, after a few days of patrolling the entire city, I directly advised the city lord: It is better to recruit soldiers than to be late, but you must be mentally prepared. The maximum number of soldiers that can be recruited in Xiliang City will not exceed 4,000.

The consumption of building a city wall is even more huge. Today's city lord's mansion cannot afford both financial and human resources.

And... more and more problems arise.

Looking at the city lord's brows, I realized that it is really not easy to be the lord of a city, and this is why my importance exists.

……………………

Faced with Li Gu's appearance, people were extremely happy, but they also faced a development problem. The recruitment only required a notice, but where did the weapons and armor come from? Where will the soldiers be stationed? It is impossible for them to ask them to go home to sleep at night, right?

Li Gu means: recruitment, building barracks, smelting workshops, blacksmith workshops, craftsman workshops, textile workshops, and before building workshops, there must be iron ore factories (if there is no iron square, all iron blocks must be purchased from outside) and cotton and hemp crops are planted.

All are very involved.

It is a good idea to build a military camp by using troops as a craftsman, but it is absolutely boring but faces a serious problem, capital.

There is no income in the entire Xiliang City, so it is impossible to collect taxes from the people in the city. The people in the city do not need the relief of the city lord's mansion. The city lord's mansion will laugh, let alone taxes.

Originally, digging wells and clearing the land and sowing seeds, they had already used their funds for absolutely boredom, and the food of the people in the city made absolutely boredom more and more poorer day by day.

Finally, the breeder decided to leave Xiliang City and accept a large amount of money from Juyi League to help repair the financial problems in Xiliang City. At the same time, he also brought a large amount of drugs, which were valuable, and the breeder wanted to sell them for more funds.

It was not until half a year later that the first army in Xiliang City was established. The soldiers were equipped with weapons and leather armor. They were absolutely bored and vigorously built a 100-person guard. This 100-person guard had excellent combat power. He used a Tang sword and was wrapped in armor all over his body.

Usually, the guards of the hundred-man will be assigned to serve as guards by each other and go out to fight and practice. At critical moments, they will definitely be bored and can gather the hundred people together.

It took a lot of effort to train this 100-man team alone.

Guard with a knife: ninth level.

Weapon: Refined Tang sword.

Equipment: Standard full body armor.

Attribute: Speed.

This team of 100 people is not only strong in combat power, but more importantly, their attributes are "speed". The range of speed here is very wide, representing: speed of action and speed of attack.

In other words, these hundred sword guards belong to the fast attack type of troops.

In the early stages of the construction of various workshops in Xiliang City, such weapons were impossible to create. The entire sword team's equipment was absolutely boring to buy from players with real money and silver, in order to reduce the burden on everyone first. After all, relying on more than 20 people to patrol Xiliang City day and night, it was really difficult. With the addition of a hundred people, everyone gave a buffer.

Originally, the patrol of two people in a team could be replaced by a team with five to eight sword guards to patrol and protect the city, and at the same time, the sword guards could accumulate experience.

How to accumulate experience? Of course, the number of players around Xiliang City has increased.

While weakening the other party, you can also strengthen yourself, why not do it?

But all of this was proposed by Li Gu to absolutely boredom, and it was all an idea to solve the most urgent problem.

Gradually, everyone realized that Li Gu was not just a city lord's office manager, but also unlike ordinary NPCs. Li Gu was more like an aide, giving advice to everyone behind his back. He seemed to be a young scholar, who was steady in his work and relaxed, putting Xiliang City first in everything.

The sword-bearing guards were cultivated in advance, which was a surprise soldier set up by Li Gu to guard against the enemy's sneak attack at night. Although Li Gu had seen and understood the strength of Gui Ge, Wuzhu and others, you have seen that all generals went to fight to kill the enemy, but there was no army without soldiers? Is this still an army? He is completely a commander-in-law.

Therefore, players who are eyeing the outside world saw that Xiliang City has limited manpower and only more than 20 people have always neglected, and this sword guard came out to make up for this neglect.

Afterwards, Li Gu took Gotulu and ten guards with swords to look for mineral resources. When he left, he was even more heartfelt and boring advice: Now the workshop is only in the state of construction, and adults should focus on agricultural development, and only with food can there be soldiers.

More than half a month later, Li Gu came back and brought back a map of Xiliang that he had hand-painted, and several places were marked on the map, namely "stone", "iron", "gold" and "silver".

There are more than a dozen signs on the map, which undoubtedly brings huge wealth to Xiliang City.

Weapons and armors are inseparable from iron, and city defenses are inseparable from stone. Both require gold and silver to pay the salary of workers and soldiers... From that moment on, Xiliang City has been carrying out various industrial developments to the world...
