Take off the hot armor, there is still a layer of wet underwear inside, twist it hard, the sweat drips like water.
The Sudanese Prince Fish and his party came to the camp. They saw a series of white tents, piles of wood, and stones. These materials were brought by professionals. Their space packages can carry a lot of items. With a little wood, stones are nothing.
Others were brought by Xiliang soldiers themselves from the mountains behind. After digging and laying the foundations, they waited for the construction workers to come and build the walls!
The houses you live in in Huangsha City can be built later, but the city wall must be built.
The desert monsters that ambushed Prince Sultan were not weak. Two thousand Templars were not killed, but as many as 800 were injured. These 800 people could not use force for the next few days.
They had only been here for a few days, and already tens of thousands of monsters had gathered on the other side. This was because they were on the edge of the desert. If they were in the core of the desert, they might have been besieged by hundreds of thousands of hellish creatures!
What they need to do now is to stand firm, build a frontline fortress, and wait for the army from the rear to come over!
After changing his clothes, Li Tu came to the hall. There were only a few Xiliang soldiers and the Sudanese prince and princess in the hall.
Li Tu sat on the main seat and said, "You two came to our department not just to take a look at the Eastern Army!
I, an Oriental, like to be direct, so please tell me your purpose!"
The Sudanese princess with a white veil on her face chuckled and said: "Then let me tell you straight, we want to cooperate with you in the East. Please train our troops for us, get rid of our dependence on professionals, and transform back into an independent kingdom!"
Li Tu leaned on the chair, with a hint of ridicule in his eyes: "Training troops, I see that the more than 500 soldiers under your command are well trained, why do you still find me Dongfang? Or do you want me Dongfang's cultivation?"
Law?"
Hearing Li Tu's somewhat sarcastic words, Princess Sudan showed no trace of embarrassment on her face: "General, we really want to get the cultivation method of the Eastern world. For this, we are willing to pay 10,000 kilograms of excellent iron ore. The Kingdom of Sudan will
I fully support your activities on this land!
Moreover, we will also give you a copy of the cultivation methods in the library of the Sudan Kingdom. This can be regarded as an exchange between the two parties.
We really need manpower that can fight against hellish creatures. The cultivation method in our world is only suitable for a small number of people to practice, and cannot be practiced on a large scale.
The cultivation methods in the Eastern world can be promoted on a large scale. We are willing to exchange all the cultivation methods in the library of the Sudan Kingdom for your set of cultivation methods!
General, please help us for the sake of jointly fighting against hell creatures and for the sake of Lu Gaoyin’s millions of civilians!”
Princess Sudan's eyes were full of sincerity, with a hint of pleading.
Their purpose here is to obtain the Eastern cultivation method. With the Eastern cultivation method, they can also form an Eastern army and get rid of the control of professionals!
Li Tu leaned on the chair and looked at the two of them like eagle eyes: "Your Western cultivation method is not weaker than ours, and the fighting spirit is almost the same as ours. Why do you want to sacrifice the near for the far? I will give you the East
Do you know what the Five Meridians and Eight Meridians are in terms of the exercises? Do you know what the Small Zhoutian and the Great Zhoutian are?"
Li Tu's words made the Sudanese prince and princess feel that this matter might go to waste. Although they were also professionals, they were the princes and princesses of the Sudanese Kingdom. What they wanted first was their country and their status.
They want to build an army like the one in the East. The Sultanate Kingdom has fighting spirit and magic cultivation methods, but they don't want to hand them over to the civilians!
They asked Li Tu for the skills just because they wanted to give them to those members of the family who couldn't practice fighting spirit, couldn't practice magic, and couldn't become professionals.
The Sultan's royal family has a large population, with thirty thousand young people alone. The palace guards are their own members of the royal family, and very few outsiders can become palace guards.
Everyone in the world knows that the method of cultivation cannot be passed on to the common people, otherwise they, the nobles and the royal family, will also come to an end.
The common people will pass on the cultivation method one by one, and eventually it will become a practice for all the people. The ruling class will not have enough force to suppress them, and it will eventually turn into a coup, just like the catastrophe countless years ago!
Their Sultanate Kingdom rose from that catastrophe. After countless huge empires gained power from the common people, under the instigation of some people, a great turmoil swept across the entire West. The strong ones suffered heavy losses, and the empires disappeared in the long river of history.
Because of that turmoil, Hell launched an attack. Without that turmoil, Western humans would still have the power to withstand Hell!
Since then, the major forces have made a tacit agreement not to pass on the cultivation methods to civilians. Even if they pass it on to their younger brothers, they must make a poisonous oath and are not allowed to pass it on to others, not even their own sons!
The aristocrats in the Western world have the method of cultivation but no talent, while some ordinary people have the talent but no method of cultivation. Only some lucky people become professionals, such as mages, necromancers, assassins, paladins, etc., to change their own destiny.
.
After becoming professionals, their status changed from civilians to the ruling class, and they had privileges that a large number of people did not have. Dragon-slaying warriors became evil dragons!
Li Tu has been in the dark world for a while, how can he still be unclear about these people?
The law should not be passed lightly!
There are many techniques that can be practiced in the Eastern world, but the important techniques are only passed on to people with great caution, and they are only taught to people in the East. Do you want him to pass the techniques on to Westerners?
Those who are not of my race must have different minds!
They can help Westerners resist hell creatures, but they cannot give these Westerners the things passed down by their ancestors, and many of these people are white-eyed wolves!
Li Tu continued: "The cultivation methods are the same in both the East and the West. As long as you practice hard and practice hard, you will become stronger. If you want to build an army like ours in the East, then pass on the cultivation method!
Don't give up eating because of choking. As long as you are strong, are you still afraid of the resistance of your soldiers? If you are really afraid, you can change the cultivation method into one section. Only after you practice to a certain level can you get the next section of cultivation method. In this way, won't you do the same?
Have you got the troops under control?"
Prince Sultan's eyes lit up when he heard this. This method can work. Select some talented people to organize them together. According to Li Tu's plan, he will only give them a training method and hand them over to the Orientals for training.
You don’t need to have the fighting power of the Eastern Army, you just need to be able to defend the city wall!
They must get the Eastern Kung Fu, and if they can't get it from high-level people, then they'll start with ordinary soldiers!
"General Li Tu, I wonder if you can help us train an army?"
...
Jiuyuan City
Different from the dark world, Jiuyuan City is covered with snow at this time, and the snow evenly covers the grassland. This is an opportunity to walk in the snow. In the past, at this time, there was a lot of noise.
Jiuyuan City is very quiet today, the entire Daqian is very quiet, the grassland people and monsters on the border are very quiet, and the rolling sea is calm.
The master of Daqian of the Eastern Dynasty left in his sleep this morning. Before leaving, he recalled the prince to the imperial capital and made all the princes bow their heads.
The person who was on top of them left, and the person who shielded them from the wind and rain also left. From today on, their fight will be a collision of swords!
The giant dragon that suppressed Daqian showed signs of exhaustion. The black dragon of the grassland, the male white tiger, the cyan dragon of the east, and the fiery red snake of the west all showed their fangs.
Li Xiang was sitting on the throne and received the news that Emperor Daqian had died. He had a very strange feeling. He was an errand in the palace and saw the emperor many times.
In his memory, the emperor was in good health and often went out hunting. He thought he would last a while, but he just left!
His departure also represents the beginning of the struggle in the world. Xiliang has also reached a fork in the road. The northwest has been owned by Xiliang, and fertile fields have been cultivated. In about two years, the entire northwest has become a fertile field.
Zhang Qingyun, Wu Jianbo, and Li Yi, who had traveled from Xiliang City, stood on the side of the generals. She now represented the generals, King Jiuyuan, and Zhuo Bufan, all present one by one.
Li Xiang said in a low voice: "Emperor Daqian is dead. What do you think of the next situation?"
The Emperor of Daqian and Prime Minister Li have been expelled from Daqian and are not his subjects. There is no problem in calling him this way.
Everyone in the hall was silent. Several of them had already calculated that the Lord of Daqian would leave this winter and start a new era.
But most of them have not yet come out of this news. The Emperor of Daqian is a status, and it also represents the most powerful force of Daqian. The Emperor of Daqian who is blessed with national destiny is the strongest person in the world, even if he is an immortal in front of him , you have to put down your body and salute him!
Now that the emperor has left and the new emperor has boarded the plane, it is very difficult for him to have the luck of the country in his life. Several of his brothers have already secured their seats, and the luck of the country has spread among the princes along with the dragon energy.
If the prince wants to obtain the complete national destiny, he must defeat his brothers, take back the national destiny from them, and revitalize the world!
Zhang Qingyun, like Li Xiang, came from outside the customs and was no longer a member of the cadres. He stood up and said to Li Xiang: "My lord, the situation is still clear at present. It is not appropriate for us to make any moves. We can manage the northwest with peace of mind and turn it into fertile land.
At the same time, the world is in chaos and wars are raging in various places. It is a good time for me to accept refugees in the northwest and expand the chamber of commerce. It is also time for us to sell our Xiliang Snowflake Salt!"
Others heard Zhang Qingyun's words and secretly agreed in their hearts. Now that there is great turmoil, they occupy the northwest, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. They also have a navy. If the navy ensures the safety of the Tongtian River, they can obtain benefits from the Tongtian River. .
After joining Xiliang, they discovered that they had spent a lot of money to buy snowflake salt. It was so common in Xiliang that every commoner carried a large bag of snowflake salt.
Salt is an indispensable condiment for people. Most of the table salt is coarse salt, which has a bitter taste. Even so, the price is not low!
The output of Xiliang snowflake salt is very large, so it is not a problem to supply the northern counties of Daqian. With the quality of snowflake salt, it is not a problem to monopolize the entire northern market.
Instead of getting involved in fighting and killing, it's better to sit on the sidelines and make money!
"My lord, my subordinates think that we don't have to go and earn Daqian, but we must hold on to the Qingxi grassland!" Li Yi, who was on the general's side, said, "The Qingxi grassland is a first-class pasture with abundant water and grass. , at the same time, it is also connected to the prairie. The prairie is currently confronting the Daqianbei Army. It cannot take care of the northwest for the time being. But when the Daqianbei Army returns to support the imperial capital, the prairie side will not let go of the surrounding areas and can occupy it. place.
Qingxi Grassland belongs to the Qing Tribe among the seven tribes of the grassland. As long as they want, they can summon millions of people who can control strings.
If the Qingxi Grassland falls into the hands of the Qing tribe, we will lose the land for herding horses, and at the same time we will lose a strategically important area. Only by controlling the Qingxi Grassland can we have the opportunity to march to the prairie or to the sixteen northern counties of Daqian! "
Li Yi did a lot of homework before coming here. She is in charge of internal affairs, but her IQ is the one with the highest IQ among the first five!
"Qingxi Grassland!" Li Xiang thought for a while and asked: "How many people do you think should be sent there?"
Li Yi said in a deep voice: "Fifty thousand light cavalry, ten thousand heavy cavalry, plus Qingxi cavalry one hundred thousand light cavalry!"
An army of 160,000 people, all of which are cavalry, is a huge expense. Prime Minister Li has no shortage of gold and silver for the time being. The gold and silver he has collected from major cities in the northwest are enough for him to use for several years. The problem is food and grass. .
The food and grass that war horses eat are not ordinary weeds. Xiliang war horses even need to eat meat. The meat they eat every day is no less than that of Xiliang soldiers. In addition, there is also the problem of food and grass.
The daily food cost of a Xiliang light cavalry war horse is the food cost of two Xiliang men. The food of a heavy cavalry war horse is twice that of a light cavalry horse, which is the food of four Xiliang men. The food of a heavy cavalry warrior is also twice that of a light cavalry warrior. .
Heavy cavalry (people and horses) need at least three kilograms of ferocious beast meat a day, plus three kilograms of cold rice, and more during war.
Li Xiang's simple mind could not calculate the amount of food consumed by 160,000 cavalry every day.
Zhang Qingyun calculated in his mind and took a look at Li Yi. This is a huge expense!
Li Yi continued: "At the same time, we need to build a central fortress on the side of the river in the middle of the Qingxi grassland, and send farmers to reclaim the surrounding grassland into farmland!"
A young man stood up behind Liu Zhen and said: "General Li Yi, the Qingxi grassland is cold and bitter. Apart from grass, nothing else can grow. Any farming?
Moreover, if the prairie side discovers our movements, is it impossible for our troops to be allowed to farm?"
Li Yi glanced at the young man: "If they dare to get close, fight them. And as you said, the Qingxi grassland cannot grow anything other than weeds. If you see someone reclaiming farmland on the Qingxi grassland, will you stop them?
We have cold rice in Xiliang, and we have farmers. Even if it is cold outside the Guan, we can still grow food. How can the Qingxi grassland be colder than the wilderness outside the Guan?
Just because the other party thinks it is impossible, we have to do it even more and do the opposite!"
Li Yi wanted to reveal the cold rice thread this time. Instead of waiting for others to discover it, they should take it out openly. They are not afraid that someone can steal the cold rice thread. This is something that belongs to Xiliang!
