The terrain of Yezhu Mountain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack, so Fang Dahu was able to sit here. But he was too careless and neglected to take precautions. He did not even place a lookout spy. That's why Baili Sheng's magic soldiers descended from the sky.
Get here.
When the two sides met, it was almost a one-sided situation. Baili Sheng's men swarmed in, killing and beheading everyone they met, and they were very ruthless. However, in a short period of time, several people were killed, and Fang Dahu himself
His martial arts skills were not weak, and he should be better than Hun Jianglong. But unfortunately, he met Lu Junyi this time, and he was killed by Lu Junyi's big gun after just one encounter.
Hun Jianglong mingled among the crowd, wondering where he could find it. Just when he managed to find a way to see Fang Dahu, Fang Dahu's village was destroyed. He wanted to join Baili Sheng, but looking at Baili Sheng's appearance, it was obvious that he didn't need it.
captive.
He was retreating quietly, and no one noticed him in the chaos. As soon as he got away from the crowd, he ran away like a rabbit in the wild and disappeared without a trace.
Running out of the forest in one breath, Hun Jianglong held on to the big tree and huffed and puffed. He was really unlucky. He could not take refuge with Fang Dahu as he wished, but almost died with him.
But now that the world is so big, where should he go? As for himself, he has been a lonely ghost for too long.
After taking a rest, continue walking eastward. You will find villages and towns ahead, and you can also have water to drink.
As soon as he walked away, he saw a big man sitting there in front of him and sighed. Hun Jianglong was shocked and realized that this man was none other than Shan Xiongxin, who had been chasing him.
Shan Xiongxin is also a little depressed. He has been out for a long time and has suffered a lot. He has long wanted to go back to the village. But he can't kill the Hunjiang Dragon. How can he return to Toad City? There are no clues for so long. It was so difficult last time.
He arrived, and he managed to escape.
Just as he was feeling depressed, he subconsciously glanced back and happened to catch Hun Jianglong's eyes.
"ah!"
"ah!"
The two people exclaimed almost at the same time, but one was surprised and the other was frightened.
Shan Xiongxin picked up the weapon and chased: "Thief, where can I escape!"
…
Liangzhou, on the outskirts of Shuofang City.
The farmland is connected with rivers and canals. The wheat fields that have just been sown have become green and full of green. Cheng Dalei was walking in the farmland and breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the scene in front of him.
The skills rewarded by the system seem to be taking effect. If we continue at this rate, the crops that were originally harvested in the autumn will be harvested this summer, and the growing time of the crops will be shortened by about half. There are thousands of hectares of fertile land. After these crops are harvested, Shuofang City will
Even if it achieves self-sufficiency, there will still be some surplus to supplement Toad City's consumption.
In this era of backward commerce, Cheng Dalei can only farm. But farming is a laborious job. Not to mention the hard work of plowing, sowing and weeding, in addition to worrying about the destruction of wild animals. Now is the time for the growth of crops.
At critical moments, there are people guarding the fields every day to guard against wild boars, rabbits and the like.
Of course, Cheng Dalei did not need to order these things, He Shen had already arranged them. After taking over Shuofang City, He Shen was like a chicken with blood. He slept day and night. Cheng Dalei was very worried that he would die of overwork one day.
Internal affairs is as important as military affairs, and sometimes it is even more troublesome. From planting to harvesting, special personnel are required to take charge of the crops. When harvesting comes, you have to worry about someone coming to grab the grain and burn it. The sky is dry and things are dry, and only a fire can make a house grow.
Years of hard work lead to no harvest.
In addition to being responsible for farming, He Shen is also doing two things now. One is to repair the dilapidated Shuofang City and make it presentable; the other is to find ways to expand the population of Shuofang City. Currently, Shuofang City only has more than 20,000 people.
It is still far from meeting Cheng Dalei's needs.
Only with population can it be popular, and with popularity can a city slowly come to life. Agriculture, commerce, and military complement each other, and small cities can become big cities, so that their own power can slowly grow.
Cheng Dalei returned to Shuofang City from the suburbs. Recently, he has been busy with matters in Shuofang City, and many things are handled in Shuofang City. Yang Guozhong has now taken over the affairs of Toad City. Although he is young, he is indeed a traitor. Everything is done in Shuofang City.
It is done in an orderly manner and is already capable of doing the work in Toad City.
Ah Xi sent the information collected by the Xizi Team here, and Cheng Dalei relied on this to understand the current situation of the empire.
All in all, the empire was still in chaos. Liu Dingtian rebelled against Liu Dingtian in the East China Sea, and other parts of the empire were also restless. Many people raised troops to rebel, but Liu Dingtian made it bigger.
Cheng Dalei didn't know what the situation was like on the other side of the East China Sea. After all, the two places were too far apart, and it took time to come and go. Cheng Dalei now only hoped that when Liu Facai came back, he could bring back information about the East China Sea.
He and the old nun in black went to look for the Hua clan. It had been some time now, but they didn't know how things were progressing.
In addition to the East China Sea, many things also happened in other places. It was just you beating me and I beating you. Fighting between each other was not very interesting.
What really attracted Cheng Dalei's attention was what happened in Jingzhou. The news A Xi had just sent: Yu Chili was dead.
Yuchili could be considered a veteran in the army, but he died a bit cowardly. When he came out of the palace in the morning, he couldn't breathe and fell into the toilet. His body was full of feces and urine.
Once Yu Chili dies, I am afraid that no one will be able to control the expansion of the power of the Prime Minister's Office. From this point of view, Chang'an will also be in chaos.
Chang'an is a mess. Cheng Dalei has noticed this early on. Many aristocratic families are entrenched here. Each family has its own interests. They almost control the business, agriculture, military, and politics of Jingzhou. In the past, the coverage of their influence
They are the thirteen states of the empire, but now that the world is in chaos, they can only control Jingzhou.
Li Letian wants to control Jingzhou, and thus the world, and can ignore everything else. But the 150,000 imperial guards must be firmly in his hands. However, there are too many children of aristocratic families in the imperial guards, and Li Letian also
It's not something you can master just by wanting to master it.
"A Xi."
Cheng Dalei thought for a while and closed the information in his hand.
"Master, please give your orders..."
"Send a message to the brothers in Chang'an and send an elegiac couplet to Yuchili. After all, he was a figure. It's a pity that he died like this." Cheng Dalei said: "In addition, tell the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion that the empire still has our power. Don't let them get too involved.
furious."
"Yes, I will get started immediately." Ah Xi promised: "Master, what should I write in the elegiac couplet..."
"This?" Cheng Dalei paused: "Go and ask the manager."
Cheng Dalei himself was not good at writing and calligraphy, and he had not specially trained in this area. So he could only ask He Shen.
