Yue Ran, who was standing beside Jing Chen, naturally saw Jing Chen's tightly locked eyebrows, not only did he see it, but Yue Ran also knew what Jing Chen was worried about at the moment, but he didn't have any good way, although the Yue family had some private troops, but it was only more than a thousand people, and its strength was not as good as the elite of these Holy Spirit Empires, even if it was taken out, it would not be of much use.

The cold wind in winter blows through the streets, and few people stay on the streets in winter, and the big battle a few days ago, the streets of Gama City are even more rare, Jingchen is not without thinking about conscription, but the big soldiers who are now recruited, even if they don't know much about military and politics, also know that that kind of soldiers are really useless, and now conscription, it will inevitably cause greater dissatisfaction among the residents of the original Gama, Jingchen knows very well in his heart that what these civilians need at this moment is to recuperate.

The world is like this, many things don't mean that you know, there is a solution, just like the current Jingchen, who knows all the difficulties he needs to face, including people, talents, and of course, money, although Jingchen has money, but he wants to support so many people in his fiefdom, it is still a little stretched, fortunately, the army of the Holy Spirit Empire did not loot the treasury in the Gama Palace.

Of course, this is not because the soldiers of the Holy Spirit Empire did not discover Gama's treasury, but because Emperor Lingjia instructed the various legion commanders, telling these people that they were absolutely not allowed to touch anything in Gama's treasury, otherwise they would be punished for dereliction of duty. Dereliction of duty is a big crime, and even if an ordinary division commander commits the crime of dereliction of duty, not only will the military merits accumulated over the years be wiped out, but even they themselves will have to go to a military court to stand trial.

According to the sentences handed down by the military tribunals of various countries over the years, it can be said that few people who have committed the crime of dereliction of duty have actually been acquitted, and most of them are death sentences, and they are carried out immediately, so even if the treasury of Gama is discovered, no one has opened it.

"Xiao Chen, if I still have more than a thousand private troops at home, if you don't mind those private troops in my family, they can be at your disposal. After hesitating for a long time, Yue Ran still said.

"Private army?" Jing Chen was born in that remote northwest town, where there were no families at all, so Jing Chen was also very unfamiliar with these families, so he naturally didn't know very well about the private army mentioned by Yue Ran, what was it.

"Well, the private army is a kind of private army formed by each family, in order to protect the interests of their caravans and families, this kind of army is generally directly led by the head of the family, and some are led by the head of the family and a group of elders, the general scale is not too large, hundreds to more than a thousand people, and the official of this scale of private army will not bother, but if the scale exceeds the limit, it will be punished for the crime of intent to rebel. Yue Ran explained.

After listening to Yue Ran's explanation, Jing Chen nodded, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he turned his head to Yue Ran and said, "Uncle Yue, are you still familiar with the family in my fiefdom?"

was stunned by Jing Chen's brainless words, but Yue Ran still replied truthfully, "Although most of them don't have any friendships, they still know what they know, Xiao Chen, do you have something to do with them?" Yue Ran really didn't understand, what did Jing Chen have to do with those family members, although in front of the interests of the family, those people would not necessarily really oppose Jing Chen, but it didn't seem so easy to let them contribute to Jing Chen's construction of a fiefdom.

"Uncle Yue, please write down the names of these families and the exact addresses in a while, I can be useful. After speaking, Jingchen looked at Yue Ran with a smile, with a sense of confidence and indifference in his eyes.

Even Yueran, who has been in business for a long time, is not clear at this moment, what kind of medicine is sold in Jingchen's gourd, at this moment, he suddenly found that even he is a little unable to see through, the young man in front of him, who is one year younger than his daughter, he always feels that this young man is not simple.

Immediately, Yue Ran smiled self-deprecatingly in her heart, with the strength that Jing Chen has at the moment, how can it be related to the word simple, don't say that Jing Chen is not simple, even those young and talented shopping mall geniuses that Yue Ran has seen, I am afraid that there are few Jing Chen who are so confident and so calm.

Thinking of this, Yue Ran nodded and said, "Okay, I'll help you make a list when I go back later." ”

Hearing Yueran's agreement, Jingchen smiled and nodded, and then turned his head to look at the murderous thousand elite soldiers of the Holy Spirit Empire below, and said, "You have been fighting for the empire for several days, and it has been really hard. ”

"For the Empire, it's just over death!"

The soldier standing below shouted loudly and resolutely.

Jingchen pressed his hands weakly, calmed the roars of the soldiers below, and continued, "At present, although my fiefdom is in the process of reconstruction, you have been fighting for days, and this kind of reconstruction is not needed for the time being. He immediately turned his head to look at the three of Makru and said, "The three of you are responsible for arranging these sergeants and maintaining the combat effectiveness of these people, and there must be no mistakes." ”

"Yes!" The three of them saluted Jingchen with a standard military salute, and Makru said in a sonorous voice, "Your Royal Highness, rest assured, we will guarantee to complete the task!"

Seeing that the order had been completed, Jingchen nodded slightly and said, "Okay, there's nothing to do with you here, go down." With a wave of his hand, the 1,000 sergeants, led by Makru and others, left the square in unison.

Seeing that Jingchen didn't give these elites of the Holy Spirit Empire any tasks, Yue Ran couldn't help frowning, now on this fiefdom of Jingchen, although there is no big chaos, but this total of eighteen cities is still in a wartime state, although each city also has some local officials left after the occupation of the Holy Spirit Army, which is used to stabilize law and order, but those officials do not have Jingchen's appointment letter after all, and some problems will inevitably arise after a long time.

Seeing the thousand sergeants slowly leaving, Jingchen turned his head, smiled at Yueran, and said, "Uncle Yue, are you thinking, why don't I split these troops and send them to various cities to stabilize local law and order?"

Hearing Jing Chen's question, Yue Ran glanced at Jing Chen with some hesitation, and finally nodded and said, "Indeed, judging from the current situation, there may be no problem, but after a long time, those officials who have been temporarily promoted may be difficult to suppress the local family forces and cause some unnecessary trouble." In fact, what Yue Ran said was quite vague, he didn't say it directly, those family forces might be lawless, but Yue Ran was sure that Jingchen could understand what he meant.

Nodding slightly, Jingchen said, "Uncle Yue, I also understand what you said, but you have also seen that at present, I only have these centaurs in my hands, even if you add your family's more than 1,000 private troops, it is only more than 2,000 people, and it is tantamount to a fantasy to control eighteen cities with more than 2,000 people, so in this case, I can only use a relatively special mode of rule." ”

"Special mode of rule?" Yue Ran looked at the young man in front of him in a little stunned, he really didn't dare to imagine that such a young man who could be said to have not experienced too many things had his own unique views on how to better manage his fiefdom, although at this moment, Yue Ran still didn't know what Jingchen wanted to do, but he was sure that the "way" that could make this young man so confident should not be Jingchen's bluff.

Seeing Yueran's stunned look, Jing Chen smiled, "It's very simple, I think, those families entrenched in various cities will not really oppose me, they are different from those ordinary residents, as a family, as a family that can exist for decades, hundreds or even hundreds of years, they should know better how to conform to the will of heaven." After speaking, Jingchen looked at Yue Ran with a confident expression.

Glancing at Jingchen quite meaningfully, Yue Ran nodded, and said, "This is for sure, most of the families that can survive on this continent understand how to better 'survive', and the first priority of this survival is to understand a sentence, 'the people do not fight with the officials', no matter how decadent and incompetent the official is, as a family force, it cannot fight with the official, otherwise unless it is the kind of powerful force that crosses the continent, it will not be possible to get away with it for long." ”

For family business matters, Yue Ran naturally knows more than Jingchen, anyway, Yue Ran has been the head of the Elf Yue family for decades, and in these decades, the Yue family has jumped from a middle-to-upper family in Gama City to one of the four major families in the Gama Kingdom, such means are not comparable to ordinary people, and it is precisely because of this that the current head of the Yue family has his own unique views on the balance of forces in all aspects and the application of resources in his hands.

However, Rao is current Yueran, and he is also confused, he really doesn't understand, what does Jingchen want to do, although every family has some private armies, and the family's resources are a lot, but if you want these families to contribute their own private armies and contribute the resources in their hands, even if Jingchen is the owner of this fiefdom, it is not possible, and doing so can only accelerate this fiefdom into disorderly chaos.

"Xiao Chen, although each family has some private armies, and each family also has some resources in their hands that you urgently need now, if you let them hand over these things, it is not realistic, after all, those things are the foundation of each family, and if they lose these things, they will be nothing, in my opinion, they are still ......" Yue Ran didn't say it too bluntly, after all, the current Jingchen is already the lord of this fiefdom, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Earth Emperor, even if there is Yue Yanran's relationship, Yue Ran doesn't want to offend her future son-in-law too much.

Shaking his head, Jing Chen said, "I didn't want them to contribute what they had in their hands, but for their own interests, I think about it, they are very willing to cooperate with me for a win-win situation." After speaking, the corners of Jingchen's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Master of the family, what do you think this third prince of the Holy Spirit wants to do? Not only did he send us an invitation, but also sent an invitation to our nemesis, the Iren family, did he want our two families to have a large-scale conflict, so as to divert the attention of the residents in the city and achieve the purpose of calming down the hidden dangers?"

At this moment, the core members of the Baxiu family were sitting in the Baxiu family meeting room, and I saw that the middle-aged man sitting in the middle was holding a beautifully made invitation in his hand, which was sent by Jingchen. When it comes to the person who sent this invitation, all of those present are terrified.

These people present clearly remembered that it was a pale golden enchanted puppet, although the puppet did not exert its own momentum, but those with a little insight understood that this puppet was probably the legendary seventh-level puppet, and no one expected that the messenger would be such a powerful enchanted puppet, which was enough to destroy their entire family in a few breaths.

"No matter what the purpose of this new lord is, we have to go, otherwise the next time that puppet comes back, it won't be an invitation......" The elder who sat first on his right hand had not spoken, obviously, he had a very high status in the Baxiu family, and when he spoke, the original stumbling discussion disappeared in an instant.

Hearing the words of this elder, the eyes of all the people present were condensed, and at this moment, they clearly realized that they had no choice at all now, and it was necessary to go, otherwise it would be as the great elder said, next time, when the puppet came again, it would not be an invitation, but a killing!

Of course, not only the Baxiu family received this invitation, but among the eighteen cities within Jingchen's territory, the slightly larger and some powerful families all received this invitation on that day, and those who sent the invitation, without exception, were all pale golden puppets with terrifying strength made by Jingchen.

"Yes!"

The military high-level leaders who followed behind Lingjia responded in unison, they all knew that this emperor was a real emperor on horse, when Lingjia first ascended the throne, it coincided with a fierce beast tide that had not been encountered in a thousand years, it was a beast tide that lasted for nearly ten years, it can be said that there was no one in ten warriors who experienced that beast tide, which was the average survival rate on the continent at that time.

However, in the Holy Spirit Empire, every ten soldiers who go to the battlefield, after the beast tide is over, three of them can return to their hometowns alive, this is not the elite of the Holy Spirit Empire, or the most ordinary soldiers of the Holy Spirit Empire, although this is inseparable from the help of those priests of the Holy See, but the wise decision-making of this Linga Emperor cannot be ignored, and it is also that great war, even if this Linga Emperor is a new emperor who has just ascended the throne, his prestige among the people of the Holy Spirit Empire cannot even be compared with the old emperor.

And what those civilians of the Holy Spirit Empire don't know is that in those bloody and chaotic ten years, Emperor Lingjia rushed to the front line every time he fought a big battle, infecting all the soldiers who participated in the war with his actual actions.

Although, many years have passed, but among these people present, there are many generals who followed Emperor Lingjia back then and fought against that beast tide with him, although they were only middle-level officers at most, but they witnessed what Emperor Lingjia did. Over the years, they never dared to forget, and at this moment, looking at the somewhat lonely back of the emperor in front of them, they suddenly felt that they were so incompetent, so useless, and would make a mistake that should not occur at all.

"Puff pass! puff pass ......"

From the beginning of some people kneeling down, to all the military high-ranking people standing behind Lingjia Emperor kneeling together, at this moment, the faces of these generals who should have been surprised on the battlefield were all annoyed, they just knelt there and bowed down to Lingjia Emperor with their heads touched to the ground.

"The ministers are incompetent, and they have failed the emperor's trust, please punish the emperor. The leader of the general, dressed in a big red uniform, said, at this moment, the heads of all the generals who knelt down were lowered, at this moment, they all scolded themselves in their hearts, no one thought that they could make such a mistake as underestimating the enemy, which even recruits rarely make.

Emperor Lingjia slowly turned around, his eyes calmly swept over the many generals behind him, and after a while, he slowly spoke, "It's not my ...... that you have disappointed" Saying that, Emperor Lingjia turned his head, looked at the soldiers who were still cleaning up the battlefield again, and continued, "It is they who you have failed, the sergeants under your command, they have given their lives to you, but what have you given them?" You have brought them only the pain of losing their comrades and loved ones, and only the helplessness of losing their lives, and you let these, the most elite warriors of my Holy Spirit Empire, if you look at you?"

After saying all this, Emperor Lingjia turned his head to look at the Great Elder, calmed down his emotions, forced a smile on his face, and said to the Great Elder, "Let you see the joke, I don't know what the Great Elder wants to ...... now" Whether from Jingchen's side, or with the identity of the Great Elder at this moment, Ling Jia can't snub the Great Elder, even at this moment, when his heart is extremely angry.

After all, the Great Elder is also a seasoned person, how could he not hear what Emperor Lingjia meant, smiled slightly, and said, "It's time for me to go and see Xiao Chen, Your Majesty, let's say goodbye and see each other again in the future." Saying that, he hugged his fist towards Emperor Lingjia, turned around and walked towards the city, with the strength of the Great Elder at the moment, he sensed that it could cover the entire Garma City, it was almost the same, at this moment, he had naturally sensed the location of Jingchen.

And at the head of the city, Ling Jia, who watched the Great Elder leave like a leisurely stroll, shook his head slightly, and no longer looked at the generals kneeling behind him, his figure flashed, and he rose up in an instant, and Ling Jia's majestic voice also descended from the sky, "Deal with the aftermath, I don't want to hear any of my Holy Spirit Sergeant's dissatisfaction with you, otherwise, you don't have to come back." ”

After a pause, Emperor Lingjia continued, "I have given the central province of Gama to the three princes as his fiefdom, leaving a thousand people to assist the three princes, and after the rest of the troops are finished, they will withdraw to the original garrison and stand by, there must be no mistake!" After speaking, a bright light pierced the dawn like lightning and shot in the direction of the Holy Spirit Empire, this Great Emperor of the Holy Spirit Empire, this emperor of the Holy Spirit Empire, this emperor who was amazed, had already arranged everything, and disappeared into the sky in the eyes of countless people.

"Hu ......" felt that Emperor Lingjia had really gone away, and all the military high-level officials kneeling at the head of the city breathed a sigh of relief, and in this moment's effort, their bodies were completely soaked with sweat, and no one was not afraid of death, even if they were imperial generals who had been on the battlefield for a long time, they were also afraid of death. For this time, Emperor Lingjia did not punish them, and everyone's hearts were secretly glad that with the mistakes they had made, and the losses they caused to the empire, it was enough for these people to die a few back and forth.

But Ling Jia didn't kill them, or even punish them, which has to be said to be Ling Jia's wisdom, strictly speaking, these generals are not really underestimating the enemy, they just chose the wrong battle strategy.

In fact, Ling Jia also saw that although the casualties in this battle were not small at the beginning, in fact, during that time, the losses on all sides were only more than 10,000 people, and there was nothing surprising about this kind of loss, such a battle of four or five hundred thousand people, although 10,000 people was a lot, but it was also within the range of Ling Jia's bearing, and it could even be said that it was lower than the number of casualties that Ling Jia expected at the beginning.

And in this battle, the biggest casualty is the next street battle, the army of the Holy Spirit Empire has never practiced street fighting at all, in the final analysis, these soldiers did not appear for war with other countries, their appearance is mainly to resist the beast tide, and it is impossible to resist the beast tide Now it is impossible to have such a large-scale and high-intensity street battle with the demon beast, so the main source of loss for the Holy Spirit Empire is that everyone did not expect the street battle.

These naturally can't escape the eyes of Emperor Lingjia, if it weren't for these reasons, these generals would probably have been in a different place at this moment, of course, it is one thing to see clearly, and it is another to say it, since these generals have already learned a lesson. He believed that with the intelligence and talent of these people, they would naturally strengthen their training in street fighting in the future, and they thought that when the Holy Spirit Empire soldiers went to war with other countries again, street fighting would definitely not become a nightmare like tonight.

A thousand elite warriors among the elite of the Holy Spirit Empire are standing in front of Jing Chen at this moment, these are all soldiers assigned to Jing Chen to help him maintain the security of his fiefdom according to the arrangement of Emperor Lingjia, to say that although this thousand people are not many, if they are really pulled into the battlefield, not to mention one is not far from ten.

Most of these soldiers already have the strength of the first peak, or even the second level of the initial rank, such strength, in the ordinary army, it is enough to be a squad leader who controls the lives of dozens of people, and at this moment, they are just the most ordinary soldiers in this team. The ten squad leaders in this team are all strong men in the army who have reached the peak of the second level, these people have not been educated by the academy, nor have they been taught by famous teachers, and all their strength depends on the accumulation of them on the battlefield and their own exploration.

At this moment, in front of Jingchen, the person who reported to Jingchen the situation of this team was the captain of this team, Maru, a knight with third-level high-level strength, and beside him were the two squadron leaders of this team, one was a swordsman Baruch with third-level primary strength, and the other was a martial artist Li Shu with third-level intermediate strength, and now the three of them were standing in front of Jingchen, waiting for Jingchen, the third prince of the empire.

Looking at the more than 1,000 troops in front of him who were very neat and very elite of the Holy Spirit Empire, Jingchen scratched his head a little, a few days ago, after the war subsided, Gama City entered the post-war reconstruction, with the assistance of Yue Ran and the Naoba family, there was not much turmoil in Gama City, everything was carried out in an orderly manner, of course, this is also because of the credit of the Holy Spirit Army to maintain law and order.

However, according to the safety of Emperor Lingjia, after these Holy Spirit soldiers are stabilized here, they must return to their original garrison and will not stay in the original Gama territory, and the defenders in Gama will be arranged by the empire otherwise, so in the morning, those imperial military high-ranking officials who led the troops to attack Gama this time came to bid farewell to Jingchen and handed over the entire thousand elites in front of them to Jingchen.

But these 1,000 people alone are not enough to maintain the security of the entire central province, you know, the central province accounted for one-third of the territory of the original Gama Kingdom, and in the planning of the original Gama Kingdom, the Central Province had fifteen cities.

And today, when those high-ranking military officials were about to leave, their map to Jingchen showed that the fifteen cities in the original plan were not only assigned to Jingchen as fiefs, but also three cities that originally belonged to the northern province, the western province, and the southern province of Gama, including Bama City and Bakassi City, were also assigned to Jingchen as fiefs.

The reason why so many fiefs were allocated to Jingchen, Emperor Lingjia also had his own considerations, if these three cities were not given to Jingchen, it would inevitably make Jingchen wonder if Emperor Lingjia was stifling his own development, which was very unfavorable to his relationship with Jingchen, so Lingjia gave these three cities that did not belong to the central provinces to Jingchen to express his sincerity.

However, I don't know if Emperor Lingjia forgot, or for some other reason, with the thousand people he left for Jingchen, even maintaining the law and order of Gama City seems to be a little stretched, and where can he have the spare strength to maintain the law and order of the other seventeen cities, after the war, the original official system of the entire Gama Kingdom has completely collapsed, if in a short period of time, if a temporary organization is not established to maintain law and order in various places, in Yueran's words, I am afraid that rebellion is inevitable.

So Jingchen is very anxious at this moment, but unfortunately, even if he is in a hurry, there is still no effective way to control this situation, after all, although he was born in Gama, he is also an outsider, and if he wants to win the hearts of the people, it is definitely not a problem that can be solved in a while.

At this moment, Jingchen's gaze slowly swept over the elite army with a calm momentum, but his brain was running rapidly.
