Perhaps Liu Feng brought good luck to Cizhou City, a few days of rain and clouds, the sky was gloomy, and it was gone, as if Cizhou ushered in a new sun. The early morning sky is exceptionally blue, a round of scorching sun hangs high in the sky, lazy and lazy into Cizhou City, and the people in and out of Cizhou City are also extraordinarily more, and the villagers have also received the news one after another, the lord of Liujiabao has become the new city lord, and there are grain trucks pulled into the city, and the villagers are like hope, and the smile on their faces has bloomed, and even the voice of talking is extraordinarily louder.

said that Deng Junliang and Zeng Xiangru were asked to accompany Liu Feng to inspect various places in the fort, but as a result, the officials who heard the news also came, and Liu Feng saw that it was not easy to drive people away, so there was a strong inspection team.

Liu Feng and the others walked everywhere in Cizhou City, the barracks warehouses and shops, and everywhere they went, Liu Feng carefully observed and inquired about the relevant leaders. Slowly, everything in Cizhou City was exposed in front of Liu Feng, and the accompanying officials were a little uneasy, until Deng Junliang and Zeng Xiangru admired Liu Feng a little, and they could do such a meticulous investigation, which proved that he had his own understanding and cognition everywhere, and those point-to-point questions also made them have a deeper understanding of the situation in Cizhou City.

The barracks were sparsely populated, the warehouses were empty enough to run horses, the food prices in the shops were high, the villagers on the streets were numb, Liu Feng was very calm about everything, and then Wulan and Liu Yanying, who followed him, whispered: "Nuoda's Cizhou City, why is it not as good as our Liujiabao?" ”

These words were heard by the officials behind them, such as Zeng Xiangwu, Zhou Tieheng, etc., and some were shy and ashamed, such as Deng Jieyu and Zeng Xiangru, no matter what they thought, but there is only one fact, that is Cizhou City, which is not as good as it used to be, and its current situation is not as good as Liujiabao.

Soon they arrived at the craftsman where Liu Feng was most interested, which was also the place where Zeng Yu Deng Junliang was most troubled, and a group of people entered the craftsman's place again, only to see that some craftsmen inside were making the armor in their hands all at once, which was completely different from the tense and enthusiastic scene in the Liujiabao craftsman camp, but this was also the most popular place in Cizhou City.

Although the armor we made is inefficient, the quality can still barely pass, and the requirements for this have never been relaxed, and their efficiency is not high, one is that the money and food are in arrears for too long, and the other is that they have lost confidence in the future. No matter how pale the craftsmen were, Liu Feng sighed in his heart: "The road ahead is still a long way to go!" ”

After inspecting the situation in the city, Liu Feng felt a little bottom in his heart, and he was also a little helpless, even if he was well prepared, he was also shocked by the current situation in Cizhou City, which was indeed much more serious than last night's statistics. Liu Feng didn't have the heart to listen to Deng Junliang's defense, and after pondering for a while, he said to Zeng Rong: "Gather all the battalion soldiers, I want to review your soldiers." ”

The military camp in the west of Cizhou City has not been built for many years, the weeds around the barracks are overgrown, and it is quite neat and tidy on the training ground, although all kinds of training equipment are worn, they are still neatly placed, and the barracks everywhere are also a little dilapidated.

It was noon, the sun was shining, a group of Cizhou soldiers, slowly lined up and ran into the camp, although a little lazy, but heard the order to gather the soldiers and drums, there was still a good obedience, less than a stick of incense, the training ground was full of Cizhou sergeants, and the wind wolf battalion of Wuze had already gathered on the training ground.

Liu Feng standing on the platform once praised Deng Junliang and the officials, two completely different camps, most of the Cizhou soldiers were dressed in iron armor, but the weapons were either held in their hands or carried on their shoulders, crookedly gathered together, the buzzing sound continued to spread to the general platform, and then rode one side, although only the captain and the captain were wearing armor, but the horizontal and vertical queues, the quality of the order and prohibition, all of a sudden compared the Cizhou soldiers.

Zeng Yu Wolf Camp was a little envious and said: "If it really comes, it is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, it is like a fire, it is not moving like a mountain, it is difficult to know like a yin, and it is like a thunderstorm." He is not ashamed of his soldiers, you must know that most of these sergeants have not received their salaries for several months, Liu Feng inspected the barracks before, and did not find many sergeants, that is because they are all doing all kinds of work, and the drum of gathering troops sounds, they can gather at the training ground with a stick of incense (about forty-five minutes), which is enough to show that their quality is not bad.

Finally, those solemn wind wolf battalions made the Cizhou soldiers a little restrained, and Zeng Rong below was a little annoyed and shouted a few words, the Cizhou middle camp quickly sorted out, a cup of tea, the same formation, and then lined up, although the dress was not as neat as the wind wolf battalion, but the smell of the strong iron and blood that had been on the battlefield for a long time came from the surface, and it immediately suppressed the momentum of the wind wolf battalion. Liu Feng was thinking that if the two battalions fought, the Wind Wolf Battalion might lose to these Cizhou soldiers who were already hungry and malnourished.

Liu Feng, who had been on the stage for a long time, asked Zeng Yu in a deep voice: "What does Uncle Zeng think is the most important problem for the Cizhou soldiers at the moment?" Liu Feng still agrees with Zeng Yu's training ability, and the reason why Cizhou has been able to resist the raids of the Khitan wolf cavalry several times is precisely because Zeng Yu has trained his troops well and led his troops strategically.

Zeng Yu clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Training soldiers and horses need silver money and food, Cizhou grain and rice are insufficient, let alone silver money, the sergeants have the heart to train their bodies, but they have no strength to strengthen their bodies." The trained sergeants made the Wind Wolf Battalion brought by Liu Feng compare, although they were in a row, and they looked a little like it, but in less than a moment, they became lazy again, and the Wind Wolf Battalion was still standing upright, and the solemn atmosphere was not the slightest relaxed, and at this moment it was two sentences.

However, Zeng Yu himself was helpless enough, the sergeants practiced, at least they had to be full, but in order to control the rice grain, he didn't dare to let the more than 1,000 pot-bellied men eat openly, which caused a series of problems.

After listening to Zeng Yu's words, Liu Feng thought for a while, and then did not ask again, in fact, he also tortured himself again, if Liu Jiabao fell into such a predicament, whether he could let the soldiers maintain the appearance of Cizhou soldiers, the answer was unknown. But Zeng Yu did it, in the past four months, these sergeants barely survived, but they can still maintain a certain level of military quality, which has the credit of Zeng Yu, and it cannot be denied that these sergeants have their own feelings, they are all from Cizhou, and they know that they are shouldering the mission of defending their hometown.

After Zeng Yu asked Liu Feng for instructions, he asked the sergeants to demonstrate some formation martial arts, etc., Liu Feng was careful in his eyes, as he thought, although these soldiers had sallow faces, but when the military drum sounded, that kind of calm attitude, indifferent eyes, and concise movements all showed that they were veterans of a hundred battles, which was also Liu Feng's biggest experience in Liu's porcelain store that day.
