Chapter 53: Eastward Advance
After another two days, Lu Shuang's level came to level 34, and his force value was as high as 87 points, which is not an exaggeration to say that he was the first among the players. Now the level of the public player is around level twenty-five or six, and they have just stepped into the level of an intermediate general, but there are very few players who can be transferred to a general, and most of them are only in the embarrassing situation of being at the peak of the fourth order but the intelligence value is less than 50.
In the past ten days of development, excluding the 60,000 population of Fog Shadow City, the total population of Lu Shuang's other territories has exceeded 200,000, of which the population of Feitian Town is 120,000. The daily garrison in Feitian Town has increased by 10,000 troops, of which 7,000 are A-qualified seventh-order soldiers and 3,000 A-qualified eighth-order soldiers, and the total army of King Kong Town has reached 10,000 with the support of other territories, fully equipped, and the five catapults newly manufactured are also used for the defense of King Kong Town.
Such a large number of troops was due to the fact that there was a strong rear, and the production capacity of the other dozen or so was further strengthened after the villages were upgraded to townships, especially to provide a large amount of food for the town of Kongo, which did not produce food itself for military purposes. The wild monsters that have been refreshed in the low-level camp will be transported to the rear to process and produce food, and the combination of farming, fishing and slaughtering will ensure the food supply of King Kong Town and even part of Feitian Town.
As for Fog Shadow City, the remaining more than 700,000 grains were only enough for 50,000 residents and 10,000 troops for about ten days, and they had to find ways to obtain food from other means. If we can survive until the next month, everything will be better, because then there will be many more farmers, and 10,000 junior farmers will be able to cultivate almost enough to meet the daily consumption of 300,000 grains.
On the side of Fog Shadow City, after three days of tidying up, Yu Wenchao and Wang Yue had already cleaned up the rebel camp and the large middle-level monster camp that had just been refreshed. The affairs of this camp are not OK to pull out all the brains, but to take into account many aspects, one is that there are camps every day that can be used for recruits to practice, and the other is that several camps cannot be squeezed into one day to refresh. So the way to push the camp is to knock out one rebel camp and ten large intermediate camps every other day, the first camp that is pushed off three days later is refreshed, the second camp that is pushed out on the fourth day, and so on, only one rebel camp and ten large intermediate camps need to be cleaned every day.
"Yu Wenchao, three days have passed, I'm here to check your work." Lu Shuang came to the Fog Shadow City and said.
"Hehe, my lord, you can check and make sure it meets your requirements." Yu Wenchao smiled proudly and said: "With Wang Yue here, those rebels can be killed without much effort, and now the rebel camp every day only needs to bring eighth-order soldiers wearing full-body armor and some archers, and the rebels can be beaten without finding their direction." ”
"Very good, since you have completed the task on time and handed over the matter to the other generals, let's start heading east." Lu Shuang rubbed his hands.
Regarding the eastward advance, Lu Shuang had already discussed with a group of generals a month ago, and the reason why Feitian Town now has so many affiliated territories is that a large part of them were occupied in the process of advancing eastward.
When Lu Shuang first started to build Feitian Village, he only considered the topography of the river, and the specific location was not too big, so the location of Feitian Town was probably located in the west of the entire alluvial plain, and there was still a large area in the east that had not been developed. Originally, there were many system cottages in such a large area, especially in places far away from the system city system towns, but after occupying the Fog Shadow City, the system told Lu Shuang that he was "deterring the thieves" and left this area one after another, so that cottage is a deserted settlement.
This kind of abandoned settlement does not have a rogue counterattack after occupation, and the abandoned after the capture of the cottage is different, he is generally the rogue inside the initiative to withdraw, otherwise after abandonment, a new team of rogue will be refreshed, or occupy it to face the rogue counterattack. If anyone is lucky enough to come across an abandoned settlement in the wilderness, the village will do the same, and it will almost make a village for nothing. It's just that no one seems to know this setting yet, or very few people know about it, and Lu Shuang told Benyu a while ago.
Although Lu Shuang did not act in the past three days, he sent scouts in advance to find those abandoned settlements. The rogues generally like to build their nests in relatively secluded and remote places, and it is difficult to search, but fortunately, they are all eighth-order soldiers who have strong survival ability in the wild, otherwise they may encounter some jackals, tigers and leopards on the way.
According to the information provided by the soldiers who went out to search, a total of 23 abandoned settlements have been found, and one of them is a second-level abandoned cottage.
This time Lu Shuang was smart, and the horses tamed by the breeders of the territory might not be able to give many people to walk with, but he could take the waterway. Several tributaries converge into the main stream at the location near Feitian Town and go all the way to the east, and Lu Shuang and the others can take a special transport ship all the way to the east, allowing a large number of people to carry and a lot of resources.
Lu Shuang brought a total of 2,300 seventh-order soldiers this time, and also used three special transport ships to transport supplies. First a closer place, after getting off the ship, Lu Shuang and several generals and a hundred seventh-order soldiers marched along the general route, and after searching for half an hour, they finally found the abandoned settlement.
This abandoned settlement, about the size of a second-tier village, looked very dilapidated from the outside, with the former fence on the ground and several rooms empty.
Lu Shuang came to the center of the abandoned settlement, where the stone tablet of this settlement was stored, pressed his hand on the stone tablet, and a system prompt appeared in his ear about whether to occupy it.
After confirming the occupation of the settlement, this time the system only prompted that it had become its own territory, and did not mention the matter of the rogue's counterattack, that is, no.
Suddenly, a white light fell from the sky, as if using a special effect like an ordinary village building order, and where the light fell, a village chief's office and a private house appeared, except for no NPCs.
The whole process is like this, very short, but the next work is not simple. Since the village is located in the depths, it does not have a strong connection with Feitian Town or Fog Shadow City, and it is especially necessary to be self-reliant. Therefore, in the early stage of the village, a hundred fourth-order soldiers brought by Lu Shuang were responsible for cleaning up the wild monsters nearby, doing some chores when necessary, opening the way to tidy up the abandoned rooms, etc. In a day, a transport ship will come with the villagers and supplies, and then it will be time for the Seventh Order soldiers to protect this group of villagers, knowing that the neighborhood is gradually being developed and the connection with the surrounding settlements is strengthened.
Premium class carriers not only have a strong load capacity, but also have a much faster speed than premium carriers. The first abandoned settlement was only brought over by Lu Shuang to see the effect, and the next twenty-two settlements sent seventh-order soldiers to find it according to the map, with a hundred people in each team, and set off with enough food and some supplies.
At the end of the day, all twenty-three abandoned settlements were occupied, and Lu Shuang had many more bright spots on his large map, which were very scattered, in stark contrast to the western ones.
By the next day, Lu Shuang would assign 1,000 villagers to each village for the daily construction of the village. It is the most basic thing for them to feed themselves there, and more importantly, they open roads and bridges when they encounter mountains and rivers, and connect the settlements in the east to the city. Of course, this is a big project, and Lu Shuang doesn't expect it to be completed soon, at least a month before he starts to act.
Most of the villagers in these settlements work as farmers, loggers, and miners, because the deep mountains often represent a lot of resources that need to be exploited. For example, to build a road to other places, there must always be lumberjacks, miners, stonemasons, etc. Although it is very cruel to them, for the sake of the overall situation, they have to sacrifice the villagers in these areas, and when they are stable, they will get rich first and lead the latter to become rich and achieve common prosperity.
