"Lord, now our Xiliang City is like a needle in the eyes of all the major forces!" Zhang Qingyun, wearing a green robe, served tea to Li Xiangman.
Li Xiang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Nothing, I'm afraid they won't dare to send troops!"
If Xiliang City wants to become strong, it must rely on war. As long as Xiliang City cannot be destroyed and the Xiliang soldiers cannot be killed, they will become stronger!
Zhang Qingyun chuckled lightly. Xiliang is really not afraid of any battle. The growth of Xiliang City is a history of war!
"Are the members of the White Lotus Sect still peaceful?" Li Xiang asked: "If there are any restless ones, I will kill them directly. Although Xiliang is short of people, not everyone is needed!"
"It's quite peaceful for the time being. I have given the order. If anyone dares to do the tricks of the White Lotus Sect in the camp, they will be killed without mercy. No one has done anything small recently. But in the future, my lord, you will also know that these people of the White Lotus Sect are evil!" Zhang Qingyun was a little helpless. A cult like the White Lotus Sect was really difficult to deal with using ordinary methods. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the White Lotus Sect still existed despite countless attacks!
Li Xiang narrowed his eyes: "It seems that I have to work harder!" l
Others can't do anything to the White Lotus Sect, but Li Xiang's system can. At that time, as long as they have dissatisfaction, they will all be thrown into building roads and mining for life!
"By the way, how are Lingzhu prepared?" Li Xiang asked.
Zhang Qingyun: "We're ready. We've hidden more than twice as many Lingzhus as last time. Now, do you want to send them all to the town, or?"
"Keep half of it. I plan to form a cavalry. High-grade spiritual bamboo is needed to make weapons. Send the remaining half to the town. Qingye Xuan will find a young man named Zhao Qingsong. From now on, our goods in Xiliang City Leave it all to him!"
Zhang Qingyun nodded: "Yes!"
Li Xiang stood up: "I'm going back to Xiliang City. I'll leave five hundred spearmen for you. If the White Lotus Sect members are a little out of line, they will be killed directly. You can't be soft-hearted, you know?"
Zhang Qingyun smiled and nodded: "Lord, don't worry!"
Li Xiang patted Zhang Qingyun on the shoulder: "I'm leaving!"
Riding on Xing Liao and leading thirty bodyguard cavalry back to Xiliang City, a road had appeared between Qingzhu Village and Xiliang City. Both sides of the road were filled with soldiers and farmers from Xiliang City, and wheelbarrows loaded with food. Slowly heading towards Xiliang City, Li Xiang was not afraid of being ambushed on this section of the road. He could summon hundreds of people at any time.
The second batch of scout troops is training. Chief Instructor Hao is teaching very seriously. Black Tiger City has been destroyed by Xiliang City. As long as Xiliang City does not die and provokes the Great Wall Army, there will be no force outside the Northwest Pass that can destroy Xiliang City. Liangcheng.
Wu Hao's future life rests on Xiliang City, which is related to his job. Wu Hao's teachings are very serious. He treats spies from major forces outside the Northwest Pass as prey and lets Xiliang scouts go hunting.
There are battles in the forest every day, but not many people know about it.
The forces outside the Northwest Pass only know where Xiliang City is, and they can only see Xiliang City. The scenery behind Xiliang City is not clear.
With Beixuan City and Nanli City in hand, Li Xiang also knew that the current situation in Xiliang was a bit rough. Xiliang's population was not enough. Eight thousand troops sounded like a lot, but they needed to be stationed very large. Li Xiang wanted to stabilize it for a while. .
Two months of food and grass were left in Beixuan City and Nanli City, and the remaining food and grass were transported to Xiliang City. Enough food and grass were left in Juhu Camp for one month, and all the remaining food was sent to Xiliang. city.
When Li Xiang returned to Xiliang City, he saw that the amount of grain in the warehouse had reached 800,000 units!
800,000 units of grain, 500,000 units of grain were used to recruit 5,000 farmers, and 3,000 were allocated to Juhu for farming. The farmland on the other side of Juhu is the most important thing in Xiliang. When these 3,000 people go,
In June, the grain output in Xiliang will definitely increase several times.
The remaining two thousand people were left to Li Yi to deploy freely. Many places in Xiliang also needed farmers, lumberjacks, construction workers, etc. in Xiliang.
The remaining 300,000 units of grain were kept temporarily by Li Xiang in case of emergency needs and for daily use in the Xiliang camp. He was waiting for more grain in the warehouse before considering recruiting soldiers.
Li Xiang lived in the center of the town, practicing martial arts every day, and reading military books. He didn't need to look at the training of soldiers. The Xiliang soldiers trained more diligently than him.
After Li Yi got two thousand people, the forest surrounded by the Xiliang city wall was cut down day and night by two thousand people. Finally, most of it was cut down, and the remaining half was left, and a residential house was built.
In addition to making weapons, the blacksmith shop is also researching various new weapons. The new weapons used by the Xiliang cavalry have been made. According to the blacksmith at the blacksmith shop, this weapon is called a spear, which is a bit like a spear, comparable to a spear.
It is long, heavy, has a long tip, and has strong armor-breaking ability.
The thick armor made here in Xiliang can block the tip of the spear, but cannot block the power of the spear. This kind of weapon will become the main battle weapon of the Xiliang cavalry.
It is made of cold jujube tree, covered with a layer of high-grade spiritual bamboo on the outside, stuck on the inside with a kind of tree glue, and then wrapped with animal skin and a kind of filamentous plant in the forest.
Such a rod is very expensive. If a single person makes it, it will take seven days. Even if it is made on an assembly line, it will take four days.
There is also the reason for the cold jujube trees. A cold jujube forest was found in Xiliang. There are about a thousand trees. This number of trees is simply not enough. One cold jujube tree can make about ten long branches.
Li Xiangrang transplanted the trees to the farmland of Juhu and asked farmers to take care of them there.
In the future, the number of Xiliang cavalry will only increase, and more weapons will be needed. However, after all, this kind of weapon is expensive and difficult to make. The iron general will have to make other weapons for ordinary cavalry.
In addition to the spear, the blacksmith also created a weapon, the halberd, which is a spear with a pecking blade, which can not only stab the enemy, but also peck and cut back.
After Li Xiang looked at it, he felt that this weapon called a halberd was far better than a spear. After letting the spear soldiers use it, the spear soldiers rated it higher than the spear. The main reason was that the attack method of the spear was too monotonous. If
When the enemy gets close, it is very difficult to fight.
Although this kind of halberd is not as long as a spear, its length of about two and a half meters is enough, and it is capable of fighting at close range.
So the spear soldiers in Xiliang City changed to practice halberds. The halberds were improved on the basis of spears, and it was not too difficult.
After the Xiliang spearmen were retrained, they were retrained in Qingzhu Village, and finally in the north and south cities.
While the outside world is noisy, Xiliang City is developing steadily, and the territory of Black Tiger City is not being taken away. Li Xiang is waiting for the third grain harvest. He needs more soldiers, farmers, and a large enough population.
Moreover, Xiliang also needs to be digested. Sometimes it is not good to expand too fast!
