Chapter Forty-Eight: The Return

Long Bai was extremely surprised, he didn't expect to be able to get a spatial magic weapon like a space ring, which was much more valuable than the ore in it. Excited, I didn't know what to say, and said: "Big brother gave me such a valuable thing, how can I thank big brother." ”

Ziyang smiled: "There is no need to be so clear between brothers. ”

The lizard's eyes looked at the space ring, and he was dying of envy, not to mention the others.

Ziyang turned around again and said to the Lizard Wu: "I know that you hate me in your heart, but, with my mana, even if you are the Lizard Dragon King, you are not my opponent, I advise you to dispel the idea of revenge as soon as possible." And I hope that in the future, you dragon clan and the dragon clan will live in peace, if you let me know in the future that you hurt my brother Long Bai, I will skin you alive. ”

Ziyang released Lizard Wu and the others, and left the territory of the Lizard Dragon Clan with Long Bai, came to the territory of the Shenlong Clan, and flew for a day, feeling that Long Bai was already relatively safe, so he broke up with Long Bai.

Long Bai kept it again and again, but Ziyang still didn't worry about Lizard Wu, afraid that he would lead his men to Shenghu County to take revenge, so he was in a hurry to go back.

Ziyang asked Long Bai to have a chance to find him at the Iron Gate Pass in Shenghu County, so he left.

When Ziyang was building the new Tiemen Pass, it was preparing to use the new Tiemen Pass as the capital base in the future. The Tiemen Pass, which is not only strategically important, but also has convenient water and land transportation, will become the largest city on the Ziyuan Continent after completion.

Ziyang rode the fire phoenix for nearly a month, and then arrived at the Iron Gate Pass, only to see that the Iron Gate Pass was majestic and majestic, really like an iron gate, and it existed by choking.

In the past three years, Zhu Qi has operated the iron gate gate decently. Not only did businessmen gather, but also recruited more than 5 million displaced people as militiamen in Guannai to work in agriculture and use them as reserve forces in wartime, and implemented a responsibility contract system for these militiamen, and the grain output increased greatly, with an annual grain output of 200 million stones, which was enough to supply all the military and civilian needs of Ziyang. Most of the grain produced in other counties was traded with the Red Tooth Khanate in exchange for large quantities of black iron, furs, military horses, etc.

The taxes paid by the city of Tiemen Pass are as high as one billion taels of silver every year, which meets the salaries of all the soldiers and horses of Ziyang.

At this time, Ziyang's six county soldiers and horses, plus Yang Xing's two armies, the total number had reached three million, and the cavalry alone had one and a half million. One million crossbow infantry, five hundred thousand shield-gun infantry.

Hua Hong had swept away all the bandits, and about half of the bandits had been co-opted, either as regular troops or militia farming, and half had been driven into the sphere of influence of Sima Zhan and Shi Chong. At this point, the economic situation of the six counties under Ziyang's command improved and the population began to increase, mainly migrating from the sphere of influence of Sima Zhan and Shi Chong.

Ziyang met with Dapeng, He Ape, Zhuge Mou and others, listened to their reports, understood the general situation, was overjoyed, and held a banquet to celebrate.

After the feast, Ziyang came to see Piaoxue and Ziyun, and the family returned to the Ruyi space and took them to see the new trophies, talking and laughing very happily. Ziyang recounted his adventure with the fire phoenix, and gave two Nine Immortal Fire Lotus Lotus Seeds and a lotus pod to Piaoxue for her to keep, and one Nine Immortal Fire Lotus Lotus Seed to Ziyun to save his life at a critical moment.

At this time, what Ziyang needs to do most is to improve the level of refining weapons and alchemy, give his troops good equipment, and use pills to help talented soldiers improve their realm.

Ziyang selected about 500,000 elite soldiers with good talents, mobilized them to Tiemen Pass, and ordered all counties to open up to recruit monks to join the army. In order to increase the concentration of the aura in the Iron Gate Pass, Ziyang removed a tree of life from the Ruyi space and planted it in Ziyang's mansion.
