Chapter 888: Pioneer Team(1/3)
Things can be done well as long as there are people doing it.
Luoyi restored order.
The Luo family has naturally disappeared, and the Zhou family has naturally risen. The Luo family's original house in the ancient city of Luoyi was naturally occupied by the Zhou family. It was a city wall in scale and defensive facilities, and all kinds of them were better than those outside Luoyi.
The city wall also needs to be built into a large castle, which is enough to accommodate 200,000 people.
As for the Zhou family, all the clan members, servants, maids, private soldiers, etc. added up to only have a population of over ten thousand.
Therefore, the Zhou family began to absorb a large number of people and strengthen itself.
This includes receiving various inheritances from the Luo family, various connections, and various secret resources... Naturally, it is inevitable that the Qin family and the Lin family will use Zhou Laodao and others who are not familiar with the situation to scheming in various aspects.
Take advantage.
However, although the Qin family and the Lin family were secretive, Zhou Laodao and his family had no idea about many things, including sophisticated matters such as the emperor's money contract.
The Qin family and the Lin family used all kinds of secret tricks. On the one hand, they wanted to gain more benefits, and on the other hand, they wanted to test whether there was a big force or big figure behind the Zhou family, as they suspected. If there was, they would naturally
All the benefits left by the Luo family will be handed over to Zhou Laodao and his family. If not...
Of course, in the hearts of Qin Mi and Lin Ru, they firmly believed that the Zhou family had hooked up with someone important.
Otherwise, they could not explain the sudden appearance of hundreds of Taoist cultivators from the Zhou family, especially the hundreds of spiritual initiates, as well as their sophisticated armored stomachs and weapons... These things are extremely difficult for even the two of them to obtain.
, let alone the Zhou family with a shallow foundation?
In the hands of other suddenly rising 'nouveau riche', Zhou Laodao and his family would probably have been found out by the Qin family and the Lin family, and they would be wiped clean and their corpses would be gone.
But who would let someone like Lu Qian really stand behind the Zhou family?
Relying on various magical powers, secret techniques, and various methods learned in Jishengtian, Yuanlingtian, and Liangyitian, including but not limited to various financial, intelligence, personnel, and other matters. Lu
Although Qi was half-skilled in many things, Lu Qian discovered that the entire Luoyi, including the so-called heads of the Qin family and the Lin family, were just like this in many things!
Therefore, with the help of Lu Qian, the various temptations of the Qin family and the Lin family were frustrated again and again.
The pawns sent by the Qin family and the Lin family either disappeared without a trace, or were seriously injured for no apparent reason, and were stripped naked and thrown on display at the most prosperous intersection in Luoyi - even the unlucky guy himself, and countless people around him,
I don’t even know how it happened!
After repeated attempts, the Qin family and the Lin family became extremely honest.
They helped Zhou Laodao's family conscientiously, straightened out all the relationships inside and outside Luoyi City, and helped the Zhou family to smoothly swallow up the entire Luo family, which was at least hundreds of times larger and more powerful than the Zhou family.
Go down.
During the Battle of Dadaofang, many big families, middle-level families, and high-level officials had troubles. They fell in the chaos, and since there were no Taoist cultivators in the clan to take charge, they were naturally no longer qualified to be ranked among the "famous families" in Luoyi.
Therefore, hundreds of families were also swallowed up by the Zhou family.
Their mansions, their frivolous wealth, their fields outside the city, their farms, serfs, tenant farmers, even the young men and women of their tribe, their servants, and even all kinds of livestock... Let's put it this way, even those people raise,
The loyal watchdog who was unwilling to change his master was killed and stewed into a pot of spiced pork!
The Zhou family is like a monster that suddenly grows abnormally, greedily and ruthlessly devouring all nutrients it can devour.
Regarding this, everyone in Luoyi laughed and laughed, and no one complained!
The wilderness is such a virtue.
This is the law of survival in the wilderness.
The winner takes all, and the loser is willing to lose everything!
Calculated using the time of this world, in just half a month, the Zhou family has more than 250,000 people from top to bottom. Among them, there are more than 150,000 elite armored private troops in the city.
There are more than a dozen military garrison strongholds outside the city.
Countless wealth... Lu Qian didn't even bother to go into details one by one.
In short, after the Zhou family initially gathered this huge wealth, used means to intimidate and subdue this large-scale new private army, a large number of scouts were sent out, and countless people began to run under the will of Zhou Laodao
.
With Luoyi as the center, the geographical terrain and all aspects of intelligence within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles were quickly collected.
The two heads of the Qin family and the Lin family were also invited to the house, where they drank happily - without their knowledge, they were knocked down by Zhou Laodao's strong wine and Lu Qian's spell, and everything they knew was destroyed.
, all the secret information was revealed.
In the backyard of the Zhou family, thirty-six white bone relics were flying in the air, and rocks were melted by the white Buddhist flames. Under the fine-tuning of the magic power, a giant sand table covering an area of more than ten acres was slowly expanding to the surrounding area.
Come on.
This is the entire topographic map of Mikawara.
Sanheyuan is one of the eight plains under the jurisdiction of 'Iron Gate Pass'. It is the latest to be developed, has the smallest area, has the poorest products, and is the weakest. The so-called wilderness in Zhou Laodao's mouth is Sanheyuan in Luoyi.
Just part of the south side.
Mikawahara alone is more than three million miles long and wide.
The eight great plains under the jurisdiction of Tiemenguan, the other seven great plains, and the smallest 'Fengxiao Plain' are about twice as large as Mikawahara, and the population is about five times that of Mikawahara. Whether it is the proportion of true practitioners, or the
Other production levels and production techniques are much better than Mikawara.
Tie Wuxin, the current guard of Tiemenguan, belongs to the Tie family and has a grandson, Tie Fang. This man is the backer behind the Luo family. It is relying on Tie Fang that the Luo family has controlled 60% of the emperor of Luoyi City for many years.
The right to issue money is even more arrogant in Luoyi... Correspondingly, the Luo family also provides Tie Fang with a large amount of rare resources, handsome men and beautiful women, etc. every year.
There is a guard named Qin Zhen at Tiemenguan, and Qin Mi’s family is a branch of the Qin family, a branch that is not much valued, and was sent to this poor and remote place to ‘enjoy peace and happiness’!
The same is true for Lin Ru's family. They are descendants of Lin He, the chief administrator of Tiemen Pass. Lin He and Tie Wuxin have a little friction. They often have some conflicts over the distribution of military supplies, the allocation of ordnance, and the number of garrison soldiers... Yes
Therefore, Lin Ru and his family were sent to Luoyi City. Their fundamental goal was to bring trouble to Tie Fang, who was behind the Luo family. If they could find some fun for Tie Wuxin through Tie Fang, that would be the best!
Not to mention the bullshit intrigues involved.
In short, Tiemenguan is very powerful.
According to publicly available data, there are 126,900 officially registered regular soldiers in Tiemen Pass. All of these 120,000 regular soldiers are so-called 'real cultivators'.
As for the Tie family, Qin family, and Lin family in Tiemenguan, their family strength is extremely terrifying.
Just to mention one, Tie Wuxin, the guard of Tiemenguan, has reached the level of Heavenly General... Heavenly Soldiers, Heavenly Scholars, Heavenly Captains, Heavenly Schools, and above are Heavenly Generals!
Not to mention Tie Wuxin's rank among the generals.
Just talk about how many great realms there are between heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, and you will know how powerful Tie Wuxin is.
As for the other members of the Tie family, there are so many heavenly schools and a lot of heavenly captains. The army at Tiemenguan is basically firmly in the hands of the Tie family. The officers up and down are basically direct descendants of the Tie family. Qin Zhen and Lin
Hey, it can't be contaminated at all.
In Tiemenguan, as the deputy town of Tiemenguan, what Qin Zhen can get his hands on are the 'guards' that are ostensibly controlled by Tiemenguan in the major cities in the following eight plains. These garrisons are responsible for each major city.
The daily work of suppressing bandits and pacifying local areas was, according to the division of powers of Tiemenguan, all military affairs of these guards, including the allocation of ordnance and military supplies, etc., all under Qin Zhen's responsibility.
As for Lin He, the master of Tiemenguan, all he can intervene is the tax revenue paid to Tiemenguan by the major cities in the Eight Great Plains, including "big fights and small fights", "drifting in the rain", and "rat bites".
"Insect-eaten", "robbery and hijacking" and other means are used by everyone, and the profits are astonishingly rich.
Qin Zhen and Lin He, one has a certain amount of force in one hand, and the other has enough oil and water.
The two of them joined forces and could barely fight Tie Wuxin.
The fight inside Iron Gate Pass was basically a reflection of the fights between the Luo family, the Qin family and the Lin family in Luoyi City in previous years.
Pieces of bluestone were continuously thrown into the slowly forming sand table. After the terrain of mountains, rivers, hills, rivers and lakes, etc., extended for about 20,000 miles from Mikawara to Fengxiaoyuan, it was no longer possible to continue.
Qin Mi and Lin Ru, the two family heads, are also knowledgeable in Luoyi City.
It is this kind of knowledgeable person, including countless people in Luoyi who have explored for many years, countless people have collected information intentionally or unintentionally, and the geographical atlas that Lu Qian was able to complete is the ultimate.
How big is the jurisdiction of Tiemenguan? The specific geographical atlas is probably available in the military machine room of Tiemenguan.
And outsiders like Lu Qian want to inquire about this kind of information...or, in other words, want to know this 'knowledge'...the risk is very high and the rules do not allow it.
After Qin Mi and Lin Ru were drunk, and Lu Qian used a spell to confuse their minds, what they said was very straightforward - the people are like leeks, they just wait for the superiors to harvest them, they don't need to understand too much!
"Then, the iron gate is closed." Lu Qian looked at a pass suspended above the sand table, which was also shaped by melted magma.
This is the model of Iron Gate Pass cast according to Qin Mi and Lin Ru's description.
It was a truly majestic city, thousands of miles long and wide, with tens of millions of residents. It was rich, prosperous, and extremely developed. Its splendor and prosperity were beyond the imagination of poor people in remote areas like Luoyi.
However, Qin Mi and Lin Ru... In this world where knowledge is tightly blocked and monopolized, these two family heads, who are also considered top figures in Luoyi, don't seem to have read any books... They can only refer to Lu Qian over and over again.
They kept talking about the prosperity and greatness of Tiemenguan, but how prosperous and how great it was, their vocabulary was extremely poor, making it difficult for Lu Qian to have a precise understanding.
But that's okay.
Since you can't get any clues from the two of them, let's go to Tiemenguan in person!
In particular, the Zhou family of Zhou Laodao replaced the Luo family of Luoyi. Behind the Luo family was Tie Fang of the Tie Wuxin clan... In order to ensure that the Zhou family can be peaceful and smooth, it will not be destroyed by other people's revenge in a few moments.
Well, Lu Qian also had to go to Tiemenguan.
As for how to eliminate the revenge of Tie Fang and the Tie family to which Tie Fang belongs when we reach Tiemenguan!
Lu Qian hit his head hard.
In the chaotic mind, the light of the soul has returned to the size of three sea bowls. Circles of weak light of the soul are released, and there are a lot of scattered memory fragments in the mind, but they are quite messy. Lu Yi himself
