After negotiating many conditions, Dong Pu returned to Tieliuling first, as the commander of the Tieliu battalion, it was impossible for him to stay outside for a long time; Ge Xuanqiao, as a guest secretary, temporarily stayed in Montenegro to sit in town, and stayed by Dong Ning's side, in case Kong Peng, Zhang Xiong and other thieves suddenly entered Montenegro to assassinate the core figures on their side with extremely high cultivation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Nearly 100 black-feathered giant vultures and eagle soldiers stayed, and it is also the largest direct aid that Hexi can give to Dong Ning, which is to be incorporated into the Elite Capital Protectorate as Dong Ning's dowry, and they will be with the remnants led by Ran Hu before, and then select the children of the nearby tribes and the Han clan to form a 1,000-person Huwei battalion of the Elite Capital Protectorate, with Ran Hu as the general.

This can be said to be the most elite combat power in the hands of the Elite Protectorate, and the combat power is much stronger than that of Dao soldiers of the same size.

Hundreds of black-feathered giant vultures can be said to be the overlords of the air.

Hexi and Taiwei Sect have a fine tradition of incubating and domesticating spirit birds, but the total number of black-feathered giant vultures in the army of the Hexi camps is less than 1,000 - this time Dong Pu can be said to have drawn out all the black-feathered giant vultures and royal vulture soldiers in the Tieliu camp and handed them over to Dong Ning.

This kind of support is not insignificant, but it also shows how important it is to stabilize the west for the next layout of the Dong family.

This also means that even if they are defeated by Zhang Xiong, Zhang Jun, Kong Peng and others in the future to attack Black Mountain and Moyue Lake, they have these hundred black feather giant vultures, and it is not a problem to stand out from the encirclement.

And with these hundred black-feathered giant vultures, on the one hand, they can make it impossible for a small group of thieves and horses to disturb Black Mountain and Moyue Lake, and ensure that the farming and animal husbandry production here will not be interrupted, and at the same time, they have mastered an air transport team that can travel two or three thousand miles a day.

This can solve a lot of headaches, and can ensure that a certain amount of supplies can be obtained from Hexi every month.

As for the many city lords in the Pinglu Oasis who were still inclined to the Ye clan, the material trade would also become faster and more hidden.

The strength of the Dong family is also evident from this.

In the entire Pinglu Oasis, there may not be three or four hundred such fierce spirit birds, but most of them are still scattered in the hands of the city lords of Zhucheng, even if the Zhang clan controls the northern and southern armies of the Xiqiang Kingdom, there are only sixty or seventy fierce spirit birds in their hands.

However, if you want to feed these nearly 100 black-feathered giant vultures, not to mention a large number of low-level elixirs that strengthen muscles and bones, tens of thousands of sand sheep are needed every year for meat consumption alone, which is an extremely terrifying number.

Montenegro, Moyue Lake and other places, including war horses, can raise a total of more than 100,000 sand sheep and more than 20,000 larger sand camels, cattle, horses and other livestock.

However, on the one hand, these animals are used as livestock and war horses, and at the same time, they are mainly the source of milk and meat for the herdsmen of the tribes to sustain their own livelihoods. In fact, the Elite Capital Protectorate can only requisition at most 10,000 sand sheep as a source of meat every year, but they all have to be consumed by these 100 fierce spirit birds.

In addition to Dong Ning's Huwei battalion, the elite army and the royal army also planned to organize 30,000 soldiers and horses in the early stage, and if the 30,000 soldiers and horses wanted to be trained into an elite division, sufficient meat was essential, but there was no excess meat nearby to requisition.

Even if the supply of meat is not considered, it can be replaced by a low-grade elixir with a higher cost in a short time, but the food and grass needed by 30,000 permanent generals and nearly 20,000 war horses are also astronomical, and they cannot be supplied by the projectile lands of Black Mountain and Moyue Lake.

The tens of millions of catties of grain that Chen Hai had collected from Zhuzhai before looked extremely terrifying, but in fact it could only last for five or six months.

However, even if the agricultural production in Montenegro, Moyue Lake and other places is not interrupted, and the tax is levied at a high ratio of two out of ten, or even three out of ten, the harvest season of each year can only increase the stock of grain by five or six million catties, and compared with the demand for 20 million catties of grain and grass, the gap is too great.

The resources required to build the city were astronomical, and at this time 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses could only be stationed in simple camps, and there was no defense to speak of.

After the generals decided to stay, they suddenly found that all the problems were piled up in front of them, like huge mountains crushing down.

"Although I am replacing the false name of the envoy at this time, I really have no experience in governing the government and the army, and you should be in charge of many affairs, but you are not even willing to take on the position of Zuo Sicheng now......"

In the depths of Baishiyu, Chen Hai stood in front of a black sandstone cliff, looking at the terrain around Baishiyu, Dong Ning painstakingly persuaded Chen Hai to accept the position of Zuo Sicheng, hoping that he would actually take over the military and political power of the Jingzhudu Protectorate in the future.

Chen Hai smiled slightly, looked at Dong Ning's cheeks that had obviously lost weight during this time, and was afraid that he would be soft-hearted, so he agreed, resisted the urge to touch her cheeks, and said, "The world is so big, I'll go for a walk in person." When I say that I want to travel the world, I am not a false statement about Dong's shirk. I can't stay here for a long time, and you have to bear the responsibility yourself. ”

"Now there are so many problems, you have to give an idea, otherwise Dong Ning, this girl, I'm afraid she can't bear it. Ge Xuanqiao came over and said.

Ge Xuanqiao is determined to practice, he doesn't care about world affairs in Taiwei Sect, and he is not good at managing military and political affairs, seeing this large number of headaches, he doesn't have the ability to make ideas for Dong Ning, but he can't understand why Chen Hai wants to refuse people thousands of miles away, Fan Dachun, Deng Tong'er and others are actually loyal to Chen Hai.

"Ran Hu, Fan Dachun, Han Jian, Han Wendang and others can govern the army, Han Qingyuan, Deng Tong'er, Guo Hongju and others can govern political affairs, make good use of them, and after the chaos in the early stage, they will slowly settle down," Chen Hai said, "And I am pulling Ge Laozu to explore the terrain now, and I don't really want to be idle." If I had predicted that the underground of Montenegro would be a whole shallow rock formation, and then the streams formed by the springs in the lands would be channeled inward, and three or four times as large an oasis would have been created, and after two or three years, many problems would have gradually improved. ”

"Even if the oasis expands three or four times, it is unlikely that it will be self-sufficient if you want to raise 30,000 or 40,000 elite soldiers and horses. Dong Ning said that even if she is a child of the Dong family, she does not want to rely completely on the Dong family.

"Three or five thousand elites are enough for the permanent establishment of the Elite Capital Protectorate, and the other soldiers and horses do not need to be regularized, and the generals give cattle and sheep war horses, and grant pasture land and arable land in Black Mountain or Moyue Lake to help them start a family. Every 200 to 500 soldiers, or on the basis of the tribe, set up the Zhichong Mansion, appoint the Zhichong Captain to govern it, usually herding and farming as usual, teaching the art of swordsmanship, training swords, cavalry and archery, and assembling in wartime, this is the system of the government soldiers...... "Chen Hai also thought for a long time, considering the current predicament faced by the Elite Capital Protectorate, only the government military system can be better combined with the current reality of many tribes supporting the Elite Capital Protectorate.

The implementation of the military system of the integration of soldiers and peasants, in addition to greatly reducing the military resources of the Jingjudu Protectorate, also requires a large number of slaves and horse thieves to be captured and integrated into the tribes, so as to truly stabilize and become an effective source of soldiers loyal to the Jingjue Protectorate.

"The government military system?" Dong Ning asked suspiciously, she didn't expect that the strategy given by Chen Hai was not to concentrate troops, but to disperse the few troops in his hand.

"In the second volume of the military training record, I have a detailed description of the military system, and you can ......implement it in combination with the actual situation at this time," Chen Hai took out a copy from his arms and handed it to Dong Ning.

Ning Chan'er was not very interested in the Elite Capital Protectorate and the Elite Army, after all, there were not many soldiers and horses in the land of projectiles, and if she really wanted to recapture the Pinglu Oasis, she would only help the Ye clan restore the country, but at this moment, when she saw that Chen Hai decisively took the time to write the second volume of the military training record, she looked at it with bright eyes.

"I'm just handing over the second volume of the military training record to you now," Chen Hai continued, "If Hexi wants to get the second volume of the actual record, he needs to exchange the domestication method of the Black Feather Vulture for the Elite Capital Protector......"

In the so-called second volume of the military training record, Chen Hai only copied the training and combat points of the spear phalanx, the manufacture and use of counterweight catapults, primary organ chariots, and primary organ crossbows, as well as the implementation of the government military system.

No matter what Dong Ning thought, Chen Hai didn't want the Jingdu Protectorate to completely become a vassal of the Dong clan, and I believe that Ye Qinglin and the others didn't want to see this.

Of course, these debts, only nearly a hundred black-feathered vultures are an astronomical amount, not to mention the thousands of catties of elixir per month.

Once the war with Zhang Xiong, Zhang Jun, Kong Peng and other thieves continues, the Black Feather Vulture will inevitably be damaged, Chen Hai thought that on the side of the Elite Capital Protectorate, it is best to master the incubation and domestication method of the Black Feather Vulture.

Chen Hai was afraid that Dong Ning would be embarrassed to talk to the Dong family, so in front of Ge Xuanqiao, he limited this condition in advance.

In fact, Black Mountain and Moyue Lake are surrounded by vast deserts, and the space is extremely vast, which is very suitable for domesticating fierce spirit birds, and at the same time, domesticating fierce spirit birds can greatly reduce the encroachment of demon beasts on herding.

Chen Hai did not hold any position in the Elite Capital Protectorate, Fan Dachun, Han Qingyuan, Deng Tong'er, Han Wendang, Han Jian, Guo Hongjuan and others and nearly 20,000 elite troops were all transferred to Dong Ning's command, and the burden on Dong Ning's shoulders suddenly became heavy.

Dong Ning looked through the second volume of the training record, the content was really dazzling, and she couldn't fully digest it for a while, plus there were still a bunch of things she needed to deal with, so she went back to the camp first, and didn't pay much attention to Ning Chan'er, who never showed her true face.

***********************

"Are you really just doing nothing?" Ge Xuanqiao saw Dong Ning leaving, there was loss in his eyes, and he couldn't help but ask Chen Haidao at this time, "Is it not your will to crisscross the desert in Jinzhou?"

Dong Ning is nominally the young concubine of the Xiqiang Kingdom and canonized the Lady of Jingjue, but there is no practical obstacle between her and Chen Hai in a short period of time, except that there will be no official title.

If Chen Hai transferred his descendants in Juquanling, coupled with Fan Dachun and other horse thief generals, there should be no problem in becoming a hegemon in the depths of the vast desert - and Chen Hai can help Hexi block the threat from the west, and the prince Dong Chou will no longer forcibly cut off his relationship with Dong Ning.

However, at this time, Chen Hai had already revealed his willingness to fly away one day, and Ge Xuanqiao couldn't figure out what Chen Hai was asking for now.

"Is it a desert king in Golden State? No. Chen Hai shook his head and said, of course his ambition is not here, even if Jinzhou wants to produce a king of the desert in the future, why can't it be Dong Ning?

Dong Ning himself didn't have this awareness, Chen Hai could only force Dong Ning on this road step by step, so he resolutely did not take any position in the Elite Capital Protectorate to reduce Dong Ning's psychological dependence on him.
