The next day, on May 16 of the fifth year of Guanghe, Lu Shuang rushed back to Feitian Village with several generals, and tomorrow it will be the guard battle of Gray Eagle Village.

After this dungeon, Lu Shuang has a relatively big feeling, that is, although the players at this stage have been transferred to fourth-order soldiers, there is still a bit of a gap compared with NPCs of the same level, which may be that players are not suitable for the mode of actual combat and cannot give full play to their strength. This also reflects the strength of the NPC army from the side, the real fierceness and iron discipline of a soldier, just an army of hundreds of people in the territory, but when assembled, it gives people a momentum of tens of thousands of people.

After two days of digestion in Feitian Village, all the newly recruited 5,000 villagers have arranged their posts, and 500 recruits with A qualification and 300 B qualifications have been transferred to fourth-order soldiers, because they don't use skill books, A-qualified soldiers need to be level 16 to be transferred to fifth-order soldiers, and B qualifications need to be level 19, so there is still a period of time. However, the expected gratifying news is that Feitian Village currently has nearly a thousand eighth-order soldiers, all of whom are composed of A and B qualifications. In addition, there are 7th-order soldiers with 400A qualification and 6th-order soldiers with 400B qualifications, each with 100 archers, and the rest are sword and shield soldiers.

In the past two days, under the overtime of the super-grade blacksmith shop and tailor shop, all the eighth-order soldiers have been replaced with ancient spear guns and fish-scale armor, and their combat effectiveness has increased greatly, but there are no king-level blacksmiths and tailors in the territory, so they can't make the most suitable eighth-order soldiers with hundred-for-steel weapons and full-body armor, and the rest of the soldiers have also changed into the most suitable equipment for themselves. In the real world, soldiers have the most suitable standard equipment, the fourth-order soldier corresponds to the first-level iron equipment and leather armor, the fifth-order soldier corresponds to the second-level iron equipment and chain mail, the sixth-order soldier corresponds to the third-level fine iron equipment and plate armor, the seventh-order soldier corresponds to the fourth-level steel equipment and fish scale armor, and the eighth-order soldier corresponds to the fifth-level steel equipment and full-body armor. As for the ninth-order soldiers and above, Lu Shuang is not clear, after all, there are no ninth-order soldiers and king-level life classes in the territory.

In the evening, Lu Shuang stationed four hundred eighth-order soldiers, two hundred seventh-order sword and shield soldiers from Feitian Village, and all archers and 10 special generals into Gray Eagle Village, plus 100 seventh-order spearmen from Gray Eagle Village itself to defend Gray Eagle Village.

Near noon the next day, Lu Shuang's spies found that a large number of rogues had appeared on three sides of Gray Eagle Village, of which there were nearly 3,000 people on the opposite side, and about 1,000 people on the other two sides.

This time, Lu Shuang didn't plan to use any tricks, but to defeat them head-on, which also came from confidence in the soldiers.

More than 3,000 people were densely advancing towards Gray Eagle Village, Lu Shuang had already made preparations, and 100 sword and shield soldiers were lined up, giving people a sense of indestructibility. Behind the sword and shield soldiers are 300 eighth-order soldiers, as the sharp sword force of this defense battle, and in the rear are 200 archers as the force of long-range strikes.

The battle was about to break out, and two hundred archers took turns firing arrows, this time unlike the sparse rain of arrows in the dungeon, hundreds of arrows fell from the sky, which was very lethal for a rogue with only one piece of leather armor.

After throwing down two or three hundred corpses, the two sides finally entered a situation of hand-to-hand combat, but this was different from their original idea of defeating each other with overwhelming numbers, and as soon as they touched the guards of Gray Eagle Village, they were killed by individuals, especially the group of soldiers wearing fish scale armor and holding a spear, which was simply a death rush. The soldiers at the peak of the eighth order, whether they are against the fourth order soldiers or the fifth order soldiers, are almost the existence of instant kills, even if it is the boss of the intermediate general, he will be killed after a while under the siege of two or three eighth-order soldiers, and it is not a problem at all to fight ten enemies.

Because it is a monster siege set by the system, there is no situation where the rogues are escaping, and in less than an hour, all the rogues are cleaned up, and the difficulty of the first wave is much easier than attacking a medium-sized and medium-level monster camp. This made Lu Shuang shout that he had wasted the eighth-order soldiers, even if there were only one hundred eighth-order soldiers, he could resist the attack on the first day, but just in case, he still had to prepare more on the third day and send more soldiers to defend.

The next day, there were more than 10,000 rogues who attacked, but they still did not pose any threat to Lu Shuang, and even there were no casualties in the two-day defense battle.

On the third day, there were more than 30,000 rogues who came over this time, and some of them were fifth- and sixth-order soldiers. As the saying goes, ants bite elephants to death, and the eighth-order soldiers are not invincible under the siege of dozens of people, and if they lose a few, it may make Lu Shuang feel distressed for a while. So when Lu Shuang transferred more troops and generals over, he also carefully prepared an ambush for the rogues, although the other party also had two special generals, but under the care of many special generals in Feitian Village, they couldn't make any waves, and still ended the defense battle with zero casualties, officially announcing that Gray Eagle Village became a part of Feitian Village.

In the past three days, in addition to participating in the defense battle, Lu Shuang also went to Mouton Village and Gray Eagle Village to conduct field research, and found that the scale of the two villages is relatively small, whether it is in life occupations or combat occupations. So Lu Shuang came up with an idea, which was to transfer a part of the population from Feitian Village to other villages, so that these people could quickly promote the development of the village. Because for other affiliated villages, qualifications are not an obstacle to development, and talents can be shared, but population is the biggest bottleneck. Like Feitian Village, it is not enough to have a talent attribute, but also a large population, which has increased by 6,000 people in the past three days, and can be quickly digested.

Although these affiliated villages are inferior to Feitian Village in many ways, they are actually acceptable if the population increases explodes. Taking a butcher as an example, an ordinary apprentice can process 15 units of grain per day under the gift of God, but a junior butcher can process 150 units, a full 10 times, so you don't have to worry about running out of food; Junior farmers have twice the cultivated area and double their yields compared to ordinary villagers, and miners, lumberjacks, etc., have a strong advantage in production. Therefore, for Lu Shuang's territory, a large increase in population has many beneficial effects, which can collect resources on a larger scale and disperse some of the pressure of military training.

Similarly, Feitian Village is actually facing some development difficulties now. At present, there are too many primary life occupations in the village, and the iron swords and leather armor they produce or the primary fishing boats cannot meet the current demand for high-end items in the village, and they cannot be manufactured even higher. Although it can be sold in the market to make a little money, the 100,000 iron swords harvested every day in the territory make Lu Shuang not care about this small money, to put it bluntly, Lu Shuang wants to build Feitian Village into a high-end manufacturing base, and these low value-added product industries are ready to be transferred out, leaving more resources to develop high-end manufacturing.

After pondering and meditating, Lu Shuang decided to make a major adjustment to the planning of the territory. Occupations such as blacksmiths, carpenters, shipbuilders, butchers, etc., which process and produce finished products, are classified as life occupations, and those that produce primary products, such as farmers, fishermen, miners, lumberjacks, etc., are classified as production occupations, and whether it is a life or production occupation, there is an S qualified NPC as the industry leader as much as possible. In this way, the villagers with a huge base and about three-quarters of the B qualifications can bring huge resources to the village, and the villagers with A qualifications can be promoted to senior occupations because they can be 100% promoted, with high production efficiency, high-end products, and full use of resources, making it the most cost-effective life occupation.

However, there are some B-qualified villagers in Feitian Village who are living occupations, and if you want to change all of them to A-qualification, you need to train another batch first, and then fill this vacancy, otherwise you will directly transfer the B-qualified villagers and those A-qualified villagers will not go up to the production efficiency. The transferred part of the B-qualified life occupations are sent to other affiliated villages to strengthen their strength, which is somewhat similar to industrial transfer.

After making this plan, Lu Shuang could even imagine the scene of some time: in a special slaughterhouse, a special butcher with 30 senior butchers produced more than 20,000 units of grain per day under the bonus of various efficiency, which is not just one, but the situation of most slaughterhouses, which can fully support the consumption of food in the rapid development of Feitian Village. Of course, the premise is that there are so many high-level professions. Extended to other life occupations, it is the same, who makes the villagers with A qualification in Feitian Village account for nearly a quarter, half of them are used as soldiers, and the rest are more than enough to be life occupations.

In addition to protecting Gray Eagle Village, the biggest gain of this defense battle is that he has gained several internal skills, 5 primary internal skills, 3 intermediate internal skills and 1 advanced internal skills, plus a special internal strength taken from Ben Yu and the internal skills that have been broken out by brushing the grass camp these days, just 4 sets of internal strength methods. There are dozens of beginner and intermediate ones, and it is estimated that the advanced or special internal skills can be obtained before the generals have completed the cultivation of intermediate internal skills.

Now there are a total of 48 S-qualified special generals in Feitian Village, accounting for less than 50% of all S-qualification NPCs, not that Lu Shuang doesn't want to transfer more S-qualified NPCs to generals, but the transfer quota of the military camps in the three villages is full, and the 11 general-level transfer orders have also been used up, so he has to let nearly 30 S-qualified NPCs go to be soldiers. Therefore, after Lu Shuang completed the defense of Gray Eagle Village, he instructed Wang He that they began to prepare to capture the surrounding system cottages and expand the number of villages, firstly, to increase the territory area, and secondly, to build military camps in these villages to increase the number of generals who can be transferred.
