On the night of November 18th, the seventh year of Tianxuan, although Qu Mao and Su Yan were not as crazy as the night before, they were still fighting endlessly. Fortunately, it did not delay the two of them from getting up in the morning of November 19th, the seventh year of Tianxuan.

After having breakfast in the royal dining room of the palace, Qu Mao and Su Yan led 200 fifth-level palace guards, still one person and two horses, and rushed directly towards Shacheng in the Gilead Province of the Liusu Empire.

Since Kong Ming has repeatedly emphasized that Qu Mao also recognizes the current level of industrialization in Shacheng, it is natural to go to Shacheng to stay for a while to see how the Lord of Shacheng has implemented the last suggestions made by Qu Mao and Su Yan after being away for nearly two months.

Qu Mao and Su Yan returned to their old places this time, mainly to advise the City Lord of Shacheng on the urbanization development direction of Shacheng, and also to check the progress of the City Lord of Shacheng in transforming the desert and environment around Shacheng.

Fortunately, the Lord of Shacheng took action immediately after hearing Qu Mao and Su Yan's suggestions last time. Moreover, Shacheng is currently relatively prosperous, so some drought-resistant and cold-resistant plants have been planted sporadically around the desert where metal mines are concentrated.

The trees just don't grow very well.

After Qu Mao and Su Yan stayed in Shacheng for a few days, they once again led 200 fifth-level palace guards, directly through the desert area with a width of more than 200 kilometers in the northwest area of ​​​​Gilead Province, and arrived outside the Novice Village where the pass was being built.

.

Xinshou Village faces the pass in the desert. According to the decision of Xinping and the Peninsula Battlefield Military Commission, the construction must be completed in November of the seventh year of Tianxuan, because starting from November 25 of the seventh year of Tianxuan, the Peninsula Battlefield Military Commission will arrange a special

troops to escort the eight Chosen players prisoners of war and their family members, a total of 761 people currently detained on the battlefield on the peninsula.

Beginning on December 1, the seventh year of the Chosen, a total of 761 prisoners of war from these eight Chosen players and their families will be sent to Novice Village for detention.

When the Yigong Territory is currently considering placing these captives into Novice Village, they are only considering providing 2 square meters of 1 cm thick wooden boards per person, 50 kilograms of grain per person, and 100 kilograms of fresh water per person based on the number of heads. Everything else is provided.

They will not be equipped, and they will not even be provided with clothes or bedding. Of course, these prisoners are not allowed to bring any supplies before entering, only a prison uniform and a change of prison uniforms.

The main reason is that the backpacks of the God's Chosen player prisoners are not controlled by Yi Gong's territory. After full communication with Liu Qianhui, Xinping people believed that with such meager supplies, and including the 8 God's Chosen player prisoners, there were only 761 prisoners in custody.

In the barren Novice Village, considering the extremely limited survival materials provided by Yi Gong Territory, it is difficult to cause any damage to the defenders guarded by Yi Gong Territory.

The garrison officer hurriedly took notes and said: "Yes, sir! But my subordinates still have to report to Lord Xinping in accordance with the regulations. Only after obtaining permission can they comply with your request."

The places Qu Mao inspected this time were not limited to Shacheng and Xinshou Village. Wucheng, Wucheng Port, Guard City, Second Guard City, and the Valley of the Kings in Hongye Principality were all on Qu Mao's list to inspect.

Fortunately, along the way, although Qu Mao did not see 100% loyal residents, the loyalty of the residents who were randomly checked was generally around 65%. You must know that just a month or two ago, Qu Mao was in the western part of the East Mainland Bay.

When randomly checking the attribute panels of residents in the independent territories of the main continent, the loyalty shown is generally only about 50%.

Xinping's idea is to force these God's Chosen players' prisoners of war to use the supplies stored in their backpacks, and then the defenders at the passes in Yi Gong's territory will harvest them regularly, using up the contents of these God's Chosen players' prisoners of war's backpacks in a year.

After leaving the Xinshou Village pass construction site, Qu Mao and Su Yan led 200 fifth-level palace guards. They did not continue to risk crossing the desert back to Shacheng. Instead, they followed the wasteland on the edge of the desert and headed south to Yigong.

The territory patrols other independent territories on the eastern continental bay and the western main continent.

Qu Mao nodded and did not say anything else. He did not continue to stay at the Novice Village pass construction site. He took Su Yan and 200 fifth-level palace guards into the Novice Village area and walked around. He felt that even if

It is also difficult for him to escape from this area with 200 fully armed fifth-level palace guards. This is assuming that the security forces guarding the pass do not attack his own troops.

Every time they inspect an independent territory, Qu Mao and Su Yan will randomly check the attribute panels of at least 10 residents, mainly looking at the loyalty data.

You must also visit some other towns with universities in Qumao.

After being imprisoned in the Novice Village, these 8 God-Chosen player prisoners of war and their families had to find a place to build temporary residences on their own.

Qu Mao came to Xinshou Village and inspected all the passes around Xinshou Village with Su Yan. Then he returned to the pass construction site facing the desert and said to the garrison officer responsible for building the passes: "We can provide a small amount of supplies for prisoners of war."

Crop seeds, allowing them to cultivate the land."

Obviously, the deployment of 8 million high-level army soldiers on the Eastern Continent has brought a sense of security to the residents of the independent territories, thus improving their loyalty. Qu Mao is very satisfied that the residents' loyalty has increased by an average of 15 points due to the deployment of high-level soldiers.

about the results.

Moreover, the tallest plant in Novice Village is a 1.5-meter-high shrub, and resources are extremely scarce. With such a barren land, Qu Mao believes that no matter how many God-Chosen players prisoners and their families are imprisoned, they will not guard Yi Gong's territory.

The warriors of the pass pose no threat.

This time Qu Mao and Su Yan planned to patrol the main continent of the Eastern Continent for at least a full month. Xinping has already issued a notice for heroes and managers from all armies, fields and independent territories to prepare for the selection.

The materials for the seven-year year-end summary meeting are expected to be held around December 28, the seventh year of Tianxuan, at the Lord's Lodge on Yi Island.

The centripetal force towards Yi Gong's territory is not directly reflected in the residents' attribute panels, but is generally closely related to loyalty, so loyalty increases by 15% on average, and centripetal force will also increase by at least 5%.

Qu Mao was quite satisfied with this result. Eight million high-level army soldiers deployed defense on the main continent of the Eastern Continent. It cost a lot of money, food, and time. Only by achieving this result can Qu Mao feel that his investment has paid off.

In addition, Su Yan, the chief internal affairs officer of Yigong Territory, has been accompanying Qu Mao on his inspections. Every time he visits an independent territory, Su Yan will organize a residents' symposium, which is also a means to further enhance the residents' loyalty and centripetalness to Yigong Territory.

, which means that after Qu Mao and Su Yan complete their inspections, the loyalty and centripetality of the residents in each independent territory will be further enhanced.

This does not include Qu Mao and Su Yan's inspection of scientific research institutions in various independent territories, but seeing the increase in loyalty and centripetality, Qu Mao and Su Yan's inspection was considered a worthwhile trip.
