Lu Shuang returned to Jiuyuan County safely and learned that Wang Zhi had suffered a dark loss on the frontal battlefield, and the soldiers suffered heavy losses.

This time Wang Zhi led the army to march more than half of the soldiers are players, mainly infantry, encountered the Xianbei cavalry has a bitter can't say, although prepared a lot of shield soldiers and archers, but under the crazy kite of the Xianbei cavalry, there are heavy casualties, rough calculations at least nearly 100,000 players dropped the level and reborn, and later Wang Zhi sent his elite troops, only to kill more than 10,000 Xianbei cavalry, to recover a little loss.

In the second engagement, the Xianbei forces wanted to concoct the tactics of the last time, and constantly sent troops to the flanks to harass them, but one was ambushed by Wang Zhi and the wolf cavalry of Wang Zhi and Zhou, and the other was overturned by a ballista when it was close because of the relatively concentrated position, so it can be said that both sides of the two wars had their own gains and losses.

But what Lu Shuang knew was that at this time, the Xianbei leaders should be very entangled in their hearts, their hard-earned trebuchets were snatched away, and the frontal battlefield has been tepid, and it seems that there is no benefit to be gained if they continue to be entangled like this, and they may be in a dilemma.

Since the return of the attack transport troops, Lu Shuang has not been idle in the past two days, and soon replenished Cheng Hui's troops, and allocated a total of 5,000 light cavalry to enrich the troops. Although the war here has just begun, Lu Shuang doesn't want to put his troops in it for a long time, he wants to help Wang Zhi repel the Xianbei forces as soon as possible, otherwise there is a huge threat, and it is not convenient for him to obtain more benefits.

Lu Shuang has been outside the fortress for several days, and the development of the territory can be described as changing with each passing day, during this time, the territory has once again recruited an NPC with SSS qualifications, although there is no god-level strategist who lays out the world and a saint-level military general comparable to Wang Yue that Lu Shuang wants, but a king-level peak civil official, with his qualifications, it will not be difficult to advance to an emperor-level civil official or even a saint-level civil official. At the same time, this NPC used to be an official in the imperial court, but he was born at the grassroots level, he hated the clan's powerful looting of people's wealth, and did not want to be in the same stream. Of course, these are his statements, and Lu Shuang knows that this is the product of a combination of a huge population base and probability.

Cao Lao used to be an S-qualified civil official, and he was an NPC talent given by every village that built a village with a village building order to assist players in managing the territory in the early stage. Later, after Lu Shuang's operation, he was promoted to the SS qualification, and now he is also a king-level civil official, but he is much worse than this SSS qualified NPC in terms of growth and special talent.

Before, Lu Shuang didn't know the role of civil officials in the game, thinking that it was to help the lord do administrative work, or to be corrupt like some officials, and engage in political work, but after slowly getting in touch, I learned that in fact, civil officials are just a profession, and it has nothing to do with corruption or not, and people with power may abuse their power even in any profession. One of the very important roles of the civilian bureaucracy in the game is to improve the operational efficiency of the territory, improve the popularity and production of the people.

One of the special attributes of Flying Sky City is that it is a godsend, which increases the work efficiency of the territory residents by 50%, and the political value of the civilian officials is similar to the commander value of the generals, which can improve the work efficiency of the territory residents, but this increased value is not as simple and violent as the heavenly gift. But there is one thing that the political value cannot be done, when the political value is higher, it can improve the coordination and operation ability of the entire territory, and this effect makes the effect of every resident and each profession in the territory together greater than the simple one plus one, but at least the advantage of a king-level civil official will be revealed.

In terms of popular support and output, it is secondary to civil servants, which is related to many practical factors, and there is no exact data on the improvement of popular opinion, but only a general one. As for increasing production, a pinnacle civil official with a political value of 95 can increase the production of a province by 15%, which is very powerful.

When the territory has grown to a certain size, it needs to have specialized talents to manage the territory in order to maximize the efficiency of the territory. Because the NPCs in the current player force are almost absolutely obedient to the lord, and the social system is similar to public ownership, so as long as they can have enough to eat, a place to live, and good living conditions, the people's morale will generally not decline. In this way, many player forces do not pay much attention to the cultivation of civilian talents, and will only use the S qualification NPC given by the village, but they don't know that the NPC given away by the system for free is worse than the recruited NPC, at least a lot of things have to be ordered to do, and they will not say that they take the initiative to manage the territory.

Another point worth mentioning is that during Lu Shuang's absence, more than a dozen generals who followed Lu Shuang earlier successfully cultivated their internal skills to the peak of the super level, and they were only short of being promoted to king-level generals. But Lu Shuang really can't help it, there has been no news of the school for so long, and even if there is, there are only one or two books, which is a drop in the bucket. Therefore, the frenzied Lu Shuang deleted the identity of the NPC with only S qualifications, turned it into an eighth-order soldier, and transferred it to Danyang Qingbing. With the force value and internal strength level remaining the same, they were quickly promoted to the ninth-order soldiers, plus the previous ninth-order soldiers, just a whole number, Lu Shuang now has a total of ten ninth-order Danyang green soldiers with S qualifications.

The rules in "The Real World" are the same, the king level is a huge watershed, it can be said that it is relatively easy to be promoted below the king level, so Lu Shuang will have so many special generals. But the promotion of the king level and above is very difficult, first of all, the internal strength must be cultivated enough level, which requires a complete set of internal strength cheats, at present, a high-level internal strength heart method is not sold on the market at all, and the special internal strength heart method is even less, without a complete set of heart methods, it is impossible to practice internal strength.

When cultivating internal strength to the peak of the super-level, you also need a masterpiece, and if you have a master, you can advance to the king-level military general as soon as possible, and it is no exaggeration to say that a mastery is a king-level general. Although self-study or apprenticeship is also possible, the premise is to be able to find such a master, and then comprehend your own mastery through your own efforts, but at present, none of Lu Shuang's subordinates can achieve this level.

Assuming that there are both internal strength and peerless learning, in order to maximize the return on the resources invested, the lord will choose an NPC with better qualifications, and generally the worst ones are NPCs with S qualifications, because NPCs with S qualifications have a certain chance of being able to break through to the emperor-level generals, so other players default to the S qualification as the most suitable and the lowest required qualification of the king-level general.

In fact, it is not easy for each player force to train a king-level general, and it can only be done by chance. Lu Shuang's opportunities and strength coexist, which has trained many king-level generals, but the number is definitely not much, except for the recruitment and surrender and the promotion order of generals, Lu Shuang has cultivated a total of only 6 king-level generals.

Considering the harsh promotion conditions of king-level generals, Lu Shuang retreated to the second-order and retired the special-level generals who met the conditions into eighth-order soldiers, and then trained them into ninth-order soldiers. Even a ninth-order soldier with a force value of 91 points can completely abuse a special general, this is the horror of a ninth-order soldier, and when an eighth-order soldier, a special military general can kill one with one finger. Although under the same force value, the ninth-order soldiers are also weaker than the king-level generals, but this gap in strength is acceptable, at least ten ninth-order soldiers can defeat a king-level general, not to mention the ninth-order soldiers of the Danyang Qingbing.

Lu Shuang's return to Jiuyuan County this time was no longer what it used to be, because there were eleven more people around him, namely Wang Yue and ten ninth-order soldiers. However, Lu Shuang will not expose their strength too early, his idea is to make a move at a critical moment and kill the generals of the Xianbei forces, after all, Xianbei is a major alien force, there must be many powerful generals, and one Cheng Hui may not be enough to deal with the whole scene.

At this time, when Lu Shuang came back, Wang Zhi was eager to try and was preparing to use troops against Xianbei's strength.
