Chapter 508: Pro-Soldiers

As the report was made, the road outside the city was muddy, and it was not the same thing to have rained and been flooded, for the flooded places had more water and were more heavily sunken, and the carriage was pressed up and sunk directly into the axles, making it impassable at all.

Kuicheng is close to the sea, the humidity is larger, the water evaporates slowly, and the road cannot be restored without ten days and half a month, but whether it is Wu Zhongyuan or the people of Kuicheng, it is impossible to spend half a month here, there is no way, you can only use the wind to call for rain, the wind to cool down, and freeze the road.

In fact, even if you stand on the city tower, you can pinch the trick and cast the spell, but Wu Zhongyuan did not choose to do it from the city tower, but hovered in the air with the help of the green dragon armor, which is not far from the South China Sea.

Kuicheng is located in a corner, and the people in the city rarely see the sorcerer's practice, seeing that Wu Zhongyuan can summon the wind and rain, and reverence for his great life, he is surprised and sighed, and suspects that he is a celestial.

Under normal circumstances, the road surface can be frozen in half an hour, but Wu Zhongyuan took a full hour, because the freezing point of sea water is lower than that of fresh water, and a lower temperature is needed to freeze the sea water.

When the road was able to carry the carriages and horses, the people of Kuicheng began to set off, and the first carriages to come out were loaded with wooden barrels, which were very tightly tied, and the outside was also brushed with waterproof tung oil, and the inside was full of salt for the bear clan.

Due to the need for continuous practice to keep the road hard, Wu Zhongyuan could not leave first, so he could only stay in Kuicheng for the time being.

The so-called northward migration is a flight for everyone in Kuicheng, crying and mourning one by one, and the atmosphere is very heavy, but after the dragon clan made such a fuss last night, everyone in Kuicheng is in a hurry to leave here, and there is not much reluctance.

From the dawn of the city of Kui city chariots and horses set off, until the middle of the night in the city of the situation was all withdrawn, the entire northward migration team stretched for dozens of miles, Kui City has a lot of generals, their own defense capabilities, at least to resist bandits and robbers is not a big problem, plus the team of warriors under Li Wanzi, as long as they do not encounter hard roles, the safety of the people moving north should be guaranteed, but they must not run hard.

Those who should go are gone, and the huge city people go to the empty building, and in the end, only Wu Zhongyuan and Li Wanzi and a few leaders of Kuicheng are left.

As the so-called people leave their hometowns, no one likes to leave their hometowns, Yu Ci and others can't help but look scared, they all know very well that this move north is a road of no return, not that everyone has to die outside, but even if the world is peaceful in the future, they can't come back, Kuicheng is by the sea to eat, offended the South China Sea Dragon Clan, how can they have a good life when they come back.

But in that situation last night, Yu Ci could only choose to stand on Wu Zhongyuan's side, the five seals were about to disappear, and there was only one way to die if he stayed here.

Li Wanzi still had to go back to build a city for the people of Kuicheng, and he couldn't return with the team, and after groaning, Wu Zhongyuan gave the third master and ordered it to send an order to Wu Mei and let Wu Mei come to replace Li Wanzi.

Wu Mei is one of the two female warriors who took lotus seeds to become Taixuan from the front of the two armies of the Bear Clan and the Niu Clan that day, and the other is Wu Shuang, the reason why he chose Wu Mei to replace Li Wanzi has two reasons, one is that Wu Mei will be the city lord of the newly opened walled city in the future, and the settlement of Kuicheng is in her walled city, so that she can protect Yu Ci and others to the north, so that she can establish a relationship and facilitate her work in the future.

The second reason is that Wu Mei is Wu Junyue's person, compared to the iron-faced and selfless Wu Junyue, he is more willing to work with Wu Ji, and Wu Shuang is the person selected by Wu Ji, and he is ready to hand over another new walled city to Wu Shuang in the future.

Due to the large number of people in Kui City and its complete autonomy, Wu Mei, the lord of the city, has much less gold content, at best, he is an expatriate ambassador, and Wu Shuang's city will become the border town of the bear clan like Daze and Daqiu.

As a king, it is not enough to be able to fight well, but also to know people well.

made up his mind, so he ordered Li Wanzi to return first, and he walked forward with the team, waiting for Wu Mei's arrival.

In this way, the burden on Li Wanzi's shoulders is very heavy, not only has to connect the road between the Yiren, but also has to expand the two walled cities, and she will not be considered if there is a work arrangement in the future.

After Li Wanzi controlled the armor and left in the air, Wu Zhongyuan ordered Yu Ci and others to catch up with the migration team in Kuicheng, leaving only Zhu Qianwei.

Zhu Qianwei is red aura, and he needs to take a lilac seventh-order lotus seed to become Taixuan, and he gave one to Wu Di before, and now he has one left in his hand.

Wu Zhongyuan took out the lotus pod from his arms, took off the seventh-order lotus seed and handed it to Zhu Qianwei, "Crush it and take it." ”

Zhu Qianwei stretched out his hand to take it, pinched open the shell, took the lotus seed, and then asked, "My lord, what is this?"

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer Zhu Qianwei's question, because after asking this question, Zhu Qianwei frowned suddenly, which showed that the lotus seeds had worked.

It is not for nothing that he appreciates Zhu Qianwei, Zhu Qianwei is a question that he asked after swallowing the lotus seed first, which shows that Zhu Qianwei has absolute trust in him.

"How can the last general be virtuous, and he is ashamed to be favored by heaven. Zhu Qianwei fell to one knee, moved and frightened. He didn't ask Wu Zhongyuan what he gave him again, because he already knew what Wu Zhongyuan gave him.

Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Zhu Qianwei and stretched out his hand to help him up, loyalty has been the noblest character since ancient times, everyone thinks they have this kind of character, in fact, the vast majority of people don't have it, when he first met Zhu Qianwei that day, Zhu Qianwei was fleeing with the infant master, in the absence of any return, Zhu Qianwei's only motive for doing this is loyalty from the heart.

"Your Excellency. Zhu Qianwei tried hard to restrain the excitement in his heart, but he still couldn't help himself trembling, there is a saying called one step to the sky, he is now, from the red qi Gao Xuan straight to the deep purple Taixuan, promoted to seven levels in a row, and instantly entered the list of top masters.

"You should know that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility," Wu Zhongyuan patted Zhu Qianwei on the shoulder, "Our opponent is stronger than you think, I don't know how many years this war will last, I don't know if we can survive, if you die in battle one day, don't blame me." ”

Zhu Qianwei took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and turned to say with a straight face, "If you don't meet an adult by chance, the last general will only live in a corner of his life, mediocre, thanks to the promotion of the adult, he can display his ambitions and talents, even if he dies on the battlefield every day, he will also have blood and heroism, and he has no regrets in this life." ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, " The bear clan has the left auxiliary hall and the right Bi Palace, each of the warriors and wizards, but the warriors and wizards alone are far from enough, and there must be brave soldiers and strong troops, but at present, the soldiers of the major walled cities are governed by the lord of the city, and it is inconvenient to change the system, so I can only retreat to the second, I have twenty walled cities, each walled city you draw 100 people, the formation of the royal forest soldiers, in case of emergency assistance, before the festival you rushed to meet with the bear, immediately after the festival to implement the matter, the soldiers are selected by you, the army is led by you, the establishment is formulated by you, directly under me, not subject to the control of the left auxiliary hall and the right palace。 ”

"Ordered. "I wish Qianwei to answer the order loudly.

Although Wu Zhongyuan completely delegated power, Zhu Qianwei still had to consult with him, including various details such as the setting of troops, the distribution of personnel, and the scope of authority.

In order to distinguish them from wizards and warriors, and at the same time reflect the particularity of their own soldiers, the two thousand men wore yellow cloaks and were divided into five hundred heavy armor, five hundred light armor, five hundred bows and arrows, and five hundred firearms.

The so-called firecracker, in fact, is the earth gun, this thing is very simple to manufacture, in modern times there are many rural hunters can do it themselves, the power can not be compared with the standard gun, but the lethality is still much more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows.

Zhu Qianwei didn't know what a fire gun was, because there was no such thing at this time, so Wu Zhongyuan gave a simple explanation to him, and then lowered his voice and secretly instructed him.

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan, Zhu Qianwei nodded slowly, "Don't worry, my lord, he will choose soldiers one day, and I will handle this matter well." ”

As long as it is a person, there is selfishness, Wu Zhongyuan is no exception, he formed a personal army for two reasons, one is to have a real army of his own, at this time and the situation in the Shang and Zhou dynasties is somewhat similar, the military power is scattered in the hands of the princes, although the major city lords also have to listen to his orders, but the critical moment still can not react quickly, such as the finger.

The second reason is that he wants to tailor a suitable identity for Wang Xinran, before that, he wanted Wang Xinran to go to work in other places, but the more he thought about it, the more unsteady he became, and if he didn't help Wang Xinran improve his cultivation, Wang Xinran's safety outside could not be guaranteed. If her cultivation is promoted, her identity will be easily exposed.

If you think about it carefully, it is safer to form a personal army under your own control, these people are all drawn from the major walled cities, they don't know each other, and most of these people have no aura cultivation, so they will not become the enemy's primary target. The most important thing is to keep Wang Xinran by his side, which can also ensure her safety to the greatest extent.

What he secretly explained to Zhu Qianwei before was to let him go to Heling to pick up Wang Xinran, as for who Wang Xinran was and what Wang Xinran's relationship was with him, he didn't mention it, Zhu Qianwei was a smart person, he should be able to guess.

The convoy moved slowly, and the two did not rush to catch up, and then the two sat on the castle tower and gossip, which was not actually gossip, but some scattered things.

In addition to 30,000 catties of salt, Kuicheng also prepared 30,000 catties of copper and iron and 30,000 catties of rice grain as a meeting gift, which is undoubtedly a send-off for Wu Zhongyuan, according to his and Wu Di's previous estimates, if the fox clan can support 50,000 catties of rice grain, there is still a shortage of 90,000 catties, and then 30,000, there is still a gap of 60,000.

However, this figure is based on the fact that if he wants not to starve to death this winter, he will have to find more rice without counting the elderly and children.

The richest thing in the Southern Wilderness is Kuicheng, but there are many people in Kuicheng, and they can't squeeze out much rice and grain, except for Kuicheng, only the fox clan is left to live a good life, except for these two landlords, there are really no tribes in the Southern Wilderness that can have excess rice and grain.

At dawn, Wu Mei came, Wu Zhongyuan made introductions to both sides, and then left the convoy to go to the fox clan.

First of all, the rice and grain of the fox clan will be implemented, and then go to other places......
