After Lin Xiao learned the specific strategy of the alliance from Lu Leiyuan, he quickly returned to the Shenmu Sect Mountain Gate and took a countermeasure.

Lin Xiao only left 200,000 horses under the Shenmu Sect Mountain Gate, but he left Zhuo Lin, Ma Langfei and other high-level monks, although he reached an agreement with Mu Wanqiu, but it is difficult to say whether this agreement has any effect, Mu Wanqiu can even avoid the Dao Heart Oath, and Lin Xiao does not dare to be careless.

Fortunately, there are not many people in the Mountain Gate of the Shenmu Sect, 600,000 people, half of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, and the rest of the Immortal Alliance forces also account for a large share of the high-level monks, and they are barely able to protect themselves, let alone attack.

Lin Xiao completely gave up the broken Shenmu City, the Shenmu City was completely destroyed, and it couldn't play its normal role at all, so Lin Xiao took the broken spiritual veins of Shenmu City and sent the spiritual veins back to Nanzhou, Shenmu City was originally a seventh-order high-grade spiritual vein, and after it was broken, it also had a sixth-order high-grade spiritual vein, which was of extraordinary value.

Lin Xiao hoarded 500,000 people in Lingmucheng, and one million people went to the hinterland of the Immortal League, and the Immortal League also took relative measures, led by Lin Xiao's old enemy Tianxuanzong, squeezed out all the potential, and also gathered more than a million people to confront Lin Xiao.

These more than one million people are already the last war potential of Tianxuanzong, after mobilizing so many people, even the mountain gate of Tianxuanzong is empty, these people are actually not the opponents of the Nanzhou army at all, but Lin Xiao still does not do anything with them, but only takes a defensive position and defends.

After arranging these, Lin Xiao only had 500,000 horses at his disposal, 100,000 horses went south, and cooperated with the Asking Immortal Gate to monitor the Ziyun Temple, and the Asking Immortal Gate also suffered heavy losses, and only sent more than 100,000 people to the Flying Immortal Ridge, and then never moved forward.

However, Ziyunguan is also too busy to take care of himself now, their high-level monks have died too many in battle, and they are unable to supervise the vassal forces, and their ruling strength has been greatly reduced, coupled with the defeat of the war, many of the Ziyunguan vassals have two hearts, and at this time, those monks who have become refugees have led to many scattered cultivators and looting, and most of the territory of Ziyunguan has become a lawless place of chaos.

Speaking of this, I have to talk about the group of scattered cultivators, the number of casual cultivators has always been redundant sects, the number of family monks, the major sects in Central Continent add up to sixty or seventy million people, but the scattered cultivation is at least more than 100 million, but there are very few monks above the Divine Void Period in the scattered cultivation, because at this point, they must be attached to the forces in order to go further, or they can form their own forces and transform into a member of the Central Continent forces.

In the past, the huge number of scattered cultivators were attached to the major immortal cultivation cities, working for the businesses and forces in the city, and obtaining some resources to cultivate, but now the war is together, the business road has shrunk, or the big cities have been directly destroyed by the war, and these small and medium-sized businesses have closed down, and the scattered cultivation has become a real casual cultivation, just like a refugee.

For these loose cultivators, the major cities in the war zone are not accepted, because it is easy to mix in a large number of spies, so the scattered cultivators who have no food and clothing have become refugees, and they have poured into the relatively safe areas of Nanzhou, Xizhou, and Beizhou, and the rest are wandering around, and many people also have the mind of producing heroes in troubled times, and they have plundered others to strengthen themselves, forming a group of thieves and robbers, so that the law and order in the vacuum of power in various places has deteriorated rapidly.

Therefore, Lin Xiao immediately wiped out the robbers in the realm of Shenmu Sect, these robbers were in groups of three or five, and the number was only one or two thousand at most, and they were an unorganized rabble, they were not the opponents of the army at all, and they were swept away by the Nanzhou army in a short time.

After dealing with the robbers, Lin Xiao began to colonize and rule, opening hundreds of large and small markets in the realm of Shenmu Sect, basically using the foundation of the previous square market, but with a different rule.

Lin Xiao still had hundreds of thousands of captives in his hands, all of whom were also reduced to hard labor, occupied a large number of spiritual mountains, and began to operate, Lin Xiao did not think about long-term rule, so all the spiritual rice planted could be harvested in the short term or various low-level elixirs.

Because he occupied too much territory and the prisoners were not enough, Lin Xiao recruited Sanxiu again, recruiting 200,000 people in one go, disrupting the formation of Sanxiu and captives, and letting them restrain each other, while the Nanzhou army was responsible for supervision and security matters.

After a month of rectification, the territory of the Shenmu Sect began to stabilize down, and the army of Nanzhou seemed to have replaced the rule of the Shenmu Sect, and all parts of the country entered the stage of recuperation.

··········

"Boss"

Lingmu City, after Lin smiled emptyly, he immediately came to inspect, as the person in charge of logistics, Si Qi was basically one of the chief elders of Lingmu City.

"How's the supply?"

"Sufficient, Nanzhou has been sending it, and most of them are from the Wuguo Factory except for the Lingmi"

Si Qi replied, the Nanzhou army fought all the way, breaking many cities and markets, after a few months of inventory, basically the inventory has been completed, there are a large number of materials, Lin Xiao sent them to the Wuguo Factory according to the value, and then took the corresponding Dan Fu Array resources from the Wuguo Factory to make up for it, back and forth, the Wuguo Factory made a fortune, which is also a point where Lin Xiao used his power for personal gain.

However, for this point, the countries of Nanzhou have no opinion, the consumption of war is very large, in order to ensure the needs of the war, there must be a trade, and now none of the countries in Nanzhou can be compared with large factories, and the price of low-level resources cannot be compared, in their opinion, they still earn.

"What are the prices in Nanzhou?"

"The Dan Fu Array has not risen much, only the price of Lingmi, which has increased by a third."

"There is no war in Nanzhou, it is normal for the Dan Talisman Array not to rise, how is the supply of spiritual rice in Nanzhou?"

Lin Xiao nodded, food needs to be planted, and the proportion of each planting will not be too high, basically to meet their own needs, now millions of people have entered the Central Continent for more than half a year, consumption has increased, production has not increased, and it is normal for prices to rise.

"Enough, the spiritual rice in the Borderland was harvested last month, and the price stabilized, but at most half a month, it will continue to be consumed, and now Nanzhou is also supplying the forces in the northern part of Central Continent"

Si Qi replied that the Five Continents Alliance, led by Kunlun Penglai, also squeezed its own war potential, and most of the monks were gathered on the front line, resulting in a shortage of operators and a reduction in the production of spiritual rice, so it needed to be supplied from Nanzhou, Xizhou, and Beizhou, among which the largest supply capacity was Nanzhou.

"That's okay, remember, our people must ensure the supply, and if necessary, we can send a message to Ye Nanyu, so that he can reduce the supply to Kunlun Penglai, and let Xizhou make some money."

"I've already sent a letter, Xizhou Qin has made a fortune this time"

Si Qi said that after the reform of Princess Mingyue in the Qin State, coupled with the relaxation of the external environment, the total amount of food has increased a lot, and the spiritual rice that used to be of very low value can now be exchanged for some middle and high-level resources, which makes the whole Qin State extremely happy, and also makes Princess Mingyue's rule more and more stable.

"I know, let Ah Qing come over"

"Yes, Master"

Not long after, Lin Xiao met Ah Qing in the main hall of Lingmu City, and after Lin Xiao returned from Kunlun, he asked Ah Qing to continue to be in charge of the affairs of the night owl, and the first task given to the night owl was to ask them to investigate the prices in the territory of the Immortal League.

"According to the instructions of the master, in the past month or so, we have investigated the prices in the territory of the Immortal Alliance, because of the preparations for the war for more than a hundred years before, their reserves in strategic materials are sufficient, such as ores, they still have a lot of them, and there are enough people and horses to refine magic weapons.

However, for basic resources, storage is not enough, not only spiritual rice, but also rune paper, spiritual blood, spiritual flesh, low-level spiritual elixir spiritual grass, and so on.

Among them, the gap of spiritual rice is the largest, the Immortal Alliance is now not counting the Purple Cloud View and Shenmu Sect, and there are more than 20 million monks hoarded on the front line, according to the per capita consumption of one catty a day, more than 40 million catties per day, and their production capacity has been greatly reduced, only some old, weak, sick and disabled people who plant spiritual rice, do not spend enough effort to plant, and the output has decreased sharply.

Not long ago, Kunlun implemented the strategy of the master, this strategy has been passed to the hands of the Immortal League, the Immortal League began to reduce the supply of spiritual rice, increase the planting efforts, transfer some disabled monks back to the rear to plant, and at the same time ask Dongzhou to supply, Dongzhou can import a large number of "

"Strategic exposure, what is the reaction of the various sects of the Immortal Alliance"

"As expected, all sects are hoarding all kinds of low-level resources, causing the price to skyrocket, and the price has doubled, and the Immortal Alliance is trying its best to suppress it, but it still can't be suppressed, and even scattered cultivation is hoarding, which has caused a big panic."

"Haha, Yang Mou can't stop it, the Immortal League is about to die"

Lin Xiao laughed and said, this strategy was leaked by Lin Xiao on his own initiative, in order to use a conspiracy to make the monks in the Immortal League panic and raise prices.

The theories of the immortal cultivation world on various issues are not enough, they don't know what is just need, eating is a just need at any time, monks below Dao Gang can't get rid of the problem of eating at all, during the war, magic weapons, and spirit runes are also just needed, they realize this, and they can't control it at all.

"Boss, now the sects of the Immortal Alliance have a strong control over bulk resources, and we can't destroy them, what should we do?"

"It's okay, it's not time yet, now the resources of the Immortal Alliance are equivalent to sufficient, so you don't have a chance, delay it for a few more months, and when this year's food is almost consumed, they will have chaos, you mainly want to win over some casual cultivation now, and when the price is expensive, you can use casual cultivation to do things, you don't come forward yourself"

"Yes, I know, but I still need the support of the army when the time comes"

"Yes, I have prepared 30,000 people and am training, and when the time comes, these people will follow the orders of the night owls and enter the hinterland of the Immortal Alliance to destroy"

"Yes, Master"

"Okay, there's nothing to do, you go down to do things, there are not enough people to call Ye Nanyu to support, Nanzhou can transfer another batch of people in"

"Good"

Ah Qing arched his hand, and then left, now that the war situation has changed, the task on him is much greater, and things are busy.
