In June, the coldness in the northwest has receded and it has entered the warmest months of the year. The five major armies of Xiliang attacked at the same time. The major forces of Jinsha Gang, Xueshan Gang, and Yulong Gang retreated one after another.
Xiliang officially unified the land outside the customs. The entire population outside the customs was also counted. It was 520,000 people, 95% of which were young adults. Among them, a total of 35,000 prisoners of war were secretly sent to the waterways.
Li Qingyun had already organized a canal digging team. Under the leadership of Xiliang Navy, a waterway leading to the northwest land will soon be built to the edge of the mountains. This section is the most difficult, and other places are just cleaning up the river bottom.
Boulders and various obstacles.
The rivers on this side of the mountains are winding and there are many hidden reefs. For this reason, the Xiliang Navy invited the newly established Shenji Battalion. The Xiliang Shenji Battalion is also known as the Xiliang War Machine Battalion.
Top war machines such as the Wenbed Crossbow are all included in the Shenji Battalion. In the future, the Shenji Battalion will establish nine battalions, and each legion will have the opportunity to be assigned to a battalion.
When the outside of the Pass was unified, Prime Minister Li wanted to move people outside the Pass to the inside of the Pass. The gap between the outside and the interior of the Pass was not generally large. It started to warm up around March inside the Pass, but it didn't get warm until around April outside the Pass.
Another thing is that Prime Minister Li wants to turn the outside of the pass into a place completely composed of Xiliang headquarters. The headquarters of the Xiliang army is outside the pass.
If Xiliang headquarters soldiers want to go out to fight in the pass, they need to reach level five before they can come out. The dark world has become a training ground for the Xiliang army.
In the first scene of the Dark World, no one knows about the Eastern Army. More than 100,000 Xiliang troops are roaming the Dark World. In the past, people in the Dark World would run away when they saw various monsters in the Dark World.
Now they specifically remember that there are many monsters in hell, and then secretly run back to tell the Eastern Army.
It's not that the Fallen didn't want to ambush the Xiliang army, but since they attracted a Xiliang army to the place where hundreds of thousands of fallen demons ambush, the Xiliang side immediately sent out various cavalry and infantry to sweep away the hell monsters.
This battle lasted for two months. Those two months should be the time when the hell creatures launched their attack, but what awaited them was endless killing. The Eastern troops killed all the hell creatures that could be seen on the ground.
Kill.
The levels of professionals operating with the Xiliang troops have generally increased by two levels, and Camp Rogge has entered a safe era.
Nearly a million humans gathered around the Dark Fortress, and they worked with Xiliang farmers to cultivate creatures that had not been invaded and alienated by the demonic energy of hell.
The appearance of the Dark Fortress gave them hope. Rather than praying to the gods in heaven, they were more willing to believe in these poor-talking and physically powerful Easterners.
After clearing out a large number of hellish creatures, the level of Xiliang soldiers has generally reached level five. However, the Xiliang army that came for training left the Dark World in batches. The five legions had already left a month ago, and now it is their turn.
The departure of the army made Kasha and his party heave a sigh of relief. They were afraid that these Eastern soldiers would not leave if they lived in this place. Their slaughter these days was too ruthless.
Wire-haired rats, giant beasts and other creatures that were demonized by the demonic energy were all killed by these Eastern soldiers. They really had no way to do anything.
Li Yi in Xiliang City received the words from Prime Minister Li and agreed to move the capital after thinking about it. The location of Xiliang City is too remote. Of course, if Xiliang develops to the west and north, Xiliang City will be a good place.
The position of the capital.
The current development direction of Xiliang is within the Daqian Pass, so it would be better to establish the capital within the pass.
More than 500,000 people cannot be relocated all at once if they want to. There are also those things that make money outside the Northwest Pass, but people have to mine them, so Li Yi plans to transfer them in four stages. The first transfer is from the City Lord's Mansion. transfer.
First, let Prime Minister Li establish a city lord's palace in the pass, and then transfer all the major internal affairs agencies there. This is the first transfer.
For the second transfer, when the new Xiliang City is established and various military industries begin to be transferred, important institutions such as blacksmith shops and arsenals need to be transferred there first.
The third transfer is the transfer of unemployed people, who are temporarily unemployed. There are only so many jobs outside the customs. These people usually just do some chores, so these people will be transferred there first.
The fourth time was a comprehensive transfer. At that time, only some necessary staff remained outside the customs, and there was no need to leave any non-headquarters personnel.
Last time, Prime Minister Li recruited too many people at once, causing the grain stock in the warehouse to bottom out. It was not until the North Wilderness Granary harvested a few days ago that Xiliang's grain stock returned to 30 million units.
These grains are the capital that supports migration!
The location of the city lord's mansion has been decided, and it will be placed in Tupo City for the time being. Tupo City has a relatively high terrain, and is close to the political, economic, and cultural center of the northwest, and is only ten miles away from the river. If you go down by boat in the future, it will be very easy to enter the city. For convenience, maybe the city can be expanded, maybe the port can be included.
Another very important point is that Tupo City does not lack all kinds of building materials, such as wood, stone, etc. It is not very far from Tupo City.
The people of Tupocheng were anxious on the first day but now they are full and busy every day. They are very satisfied with the rule of Xiliang. Many people make a living by weaving various bamboo products for Xiliang.
They also saw the changes in Tupo City. Just a month ago, after more than a thousand Xiliang people came to Tupo City, a large number of buildings in the center of Tupo City were destroyed, including the original city lord's palace.
Then, they began a busy life. A large amount of stone and wood were transported from distant places. All they needed to do was dig soil and transport materials under the command of these Xiliang people, and they could still get wages every day.
The money you get can be used to buy the meat of ferocious beasts. The most indispensable thing in Xiliang now is the meat of low-grade ferocious beasts. You can buy some of it. The meat of high-grade ferocious beasts is used as food in Xiliang.
In mid-June, a luxurious and huge palace appeared inside Tupo City. The Xiliang people did not care about any excessive regulations. They built this luxurious palace according to the best current architectural techniques. Outside was a high city wall. The terrain of Slope City is already high. After the palaces were built in this area, you can see the most luxurious palace in the middle from a distance.
When the workers who built them along with the Xiliang workers saw these palaces, they all wondered whether they were built by them and how fast they could build them.
On this day, people in Tupocheng had no work, the streets and alleys were cleaned, and the streets leading to the palace were full of soldiers from Xiliang City.
Many people couldn't help but want to come out to watch the fun, including spies sent by Jiuyuan County. At the window on the second floor of a restaurant, a young man looked at the cavalry at the front.
This Xiliang City is more powerful than imagined. The leading cavalry team is rare in Jiuyuan County. There are also soldiers standing on both sides of the street. Each one has a strong evil spirit on his body. They are all elites. scholar.
"It is indeed a force that can give the Great Wall Legion a headache!" The young man took a sip of tea and said to a young man of about the same size next to him: "There are still ferocious beasts that can help Jiuyuan County. Wait until the ferocious beasts retreat or
If we don’t continue going south, Jiuyuan County will be in trouble!”
"The ferocious beast will not retreat for a while, and will only bring the Eighth Prince here!" The young man in white said: "If Jiuyuan County is consolidated, it will not be difficult to recruit hundreds of thousands of troops. Although Xiliang is strong, their number is their biggest disadvantage.
!”
"Number advantage?" The young man smiled calmly: "The cities occupied by Xiliang City have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is easy for Xiliang to recruit troops from them!"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a flattering face came over. The two of them heard the footsteps and ended their conversation.
"Young master, why are you here?"
The young man picked up the wine bottle in his hand and glanced at the middle-aged man. He looked familiar, but he didn't know his name: "I was bored at home. I heard that Tupo City has become better under the rule of Xiliang forces, so I came over to take a look, but there was nothing
I think the ferocious beast brew you have here is very tasty!"
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "This ferocious beast wine is the wine we bought from Xiliang. These are the lowest level ferocious beast wine. When I bought it before, I specially bought ten jars of intermediate ferocious beast wine from Xiliang City.
Brew and a jar of high-grade ferocious beast brew, I’ll have someone bring it to you right now!”
The shopkeeper said that he was going to call someone over, but the young man shook his head: "No need, you have been here for a long time, and you should know something about the people of Xiliang!"
The shopkeeper stood beside him: "I don't know what you want to know, young master!"
The young man's eyes drifted to the Xiliang people on the street below: "Is Li Xiang, the lord of Xiliang City, going back to the city? Such a big battle!"
The two young men had just arrived at Tupocheng. Most of their knowledge of Xiliang City was from what they had heard and had never actually seen it. Seeing such a huge battle, they naturally thought that Prime Minister Li, who was away at war, had returned.
The shopkeeper looked at the street below and said with a smile: "No, Xiliang, City Lord Li usually brings his cavalry back and forth by himself, but there won't be such a big battle as the one below. This should be a trip for an important person in Xiliang!"
"
He almost called out the title King of Xiliang just now. People in Tupo City were accustomed to calling him King of Xiliang instead of Lord Li.
Wheel, wheel!
The sound of wheels sounded, and a huge carriage pulled by four white horses slowly passed by. As soon as the soldiers guarding the carriage appeared, countless people looked back. Just now they felt the coldness, as if they were bitten by the god of death.
kind.
"So strong!" Another young man said little, but his originally dull eyes became fiery after the guards appeared.
The soldiers who had just passed by made him feel flustered, and they exuded murderous aura. These were soldiers who had fought hundreds of battles.
"A carriage, it seems that it should be the family of Prime Minister Li!" The young man guessed, then froze and looked at the shopkeeper: "Do you know the approximate location of Prime Minister Li now?"
The shopkeeper was a little surprised when Shaodong asked what he was doing, but he quickly answered: "The day before yesterday, I heard that an army of more than five thousand ferocious beasts appeared in the north. City Lord Li set off with the Xiliang cavalry and some infantry!"
"What about these soldiers?"
"These soldiers are the troops who arrived first yesterday!" the shopkeeper said: "City Lord Li seems to be planning to build this place into the main city. I don't know exactly how many people there are in the city, but it should be at least no less than 20,000.
!”
"We must pay more attention to it!" The young man stopped talking and looked at the Xiliang army on the street, with carriages pulling a large amount of supplies.
On the other side, Duanmu Xiyuan was sitting in a palace. When this palace was built, she was the first woman to live in it. Looking at the buildings around her, she didn't know if she could come back in this life!
"Miss Duanmu, things have been prepared for you, and the war horses are outside!" A Xiliang soldier came over with a long knife: "This is the long knife that my lord asked me to hand over to you!"
Duanmu Xiyuan picked up the long knife and pulled it out gently. There was a cold light inside, and put the knife away: "Tell your lord, the knife is very good, I like it very much. By the way, tell him, if I don't die in the East China Sea, I will
Will come back to find him!"
After Duanmu Xiyuan finished speaking, Li Xiang's expression when she heard this sentence appeared in her mind.
A Xiliang war horse stayed quietly outside. Duanmu Xiyuan rode on it. Taking another look at the palace, she still felt a little regretful. The ferocious beast from the north came at the wrong time. Otherwise, someone would send him a favor.
good.
Duanmu Xiyuan covered her face and revealed her eyes: "Drive!" The horse galloped away. When the carriage on the other side entered the palace, Duanmu Xiyuan had just left the palace.
Today there will be a merchant ship coming from the Daqian East Sea. This ship will leave the northwest land and return to the East China Sea in two days. There will not be much time left for her.
drive!
Li Xiang rode his horse galloping, and Xing Liao ran as fast as he could to the road leading to Jiuyuan County. The blood on his body had not been washed away, and he was smelling of blood. He had just finished the battle with the ferocious beast, and he rushed back.
Today is the day when a person who is regarded as a friend leaves Tupocheng, and it is also the day when his wife goes to Tupocheng. He must come back.
Just as she stopped, she saw a white figure running towards her in the distance. Duanmu Xiyuan blinked when she saw the figure appearing in front of her, a little unsure, and then she felt joy that could not be concealed.
"It's really rare that City Lord Li, who has so many things to do, has time to come and say goodbye to a little girl like me!"
The war horse moved forward quickly, and the distance between the two people was very close.
"Friend, I always give you a gift!" Li Xiang took out a blooming flower with soil and intact roots: "I don't know what to give you. I saw two flowers on the road, so I gave them both.
Dig it out, this flower has a strong vitality and can be planted in the soil!"
Duanmu Xiyuan took the flower with a smile and saw another one: "Why don't you give me the other flower too?"
"This one is for my wife!" Li Xiang looked at Duanmu Xiyuan solemnly: "If you are unhappy outside, you can come back to Xiliang. The gate of Xiliang will always be open for you!"
Duanmu Xiyuan took the flower and smelled it gently: "I hope that your reputation of Xiliang will be spread throughout Daqian in the future, so let's say goodbye!"
"Lands and rivers meet each other!"
Duanmu Xiyuan nodded and galloped forward, leaving without looking back. Naduohua was protected by her true energy and was not damaged by the wind!
