In the early spring, although the sun is dazzling, but with a coldness, on the thick snow, Lu Bu holds a mountain opening knife in his hand, and his body is constantly tossing and turning in the snow.

"Woo~"

With Lu Bu's last slash, the surrounding air seemed to ripple, and a void force struck the ground, splashing the sky with ice and snow.

"The sword is the hegemon of the soldiers! Knife technique is nothing more than chopping, when fighting against the enemy, momentum is the most important, there must be an invincible mentality, in order to make the most ordinary knife technique play the most powerful power, if there is no such invincible momentum, that is, no matter how exquisite your knife technique is, lose the domineering of the knife, and the knife is difficult to achieve! Lu Bu stood with a knife, and in front of him, there were more than 100 strong men wearing only a single shirt, all with solemn expressions, listening carefully to Lu Bu's explanation.

In the territory of Xunyang, all the eighteen cottages were either exterminated by Lu Bu, or subdued, and after going to the turnips, a force of 3,000 people was reorganized, and Lu Bu, from these 3,000 people, selected those with excellent qualifications, courage, and loyalty, recruited to the village, and set aside some time every time to train this group of people, among them, Guan Feng, Duan Yucheng, and Lu Feng were impressively listed.

Although Lu Bu is most proficient in Fang Tian's painting halberd, but Fang Tian's painting halberd, as a Qimen blade, was originally created by combining the advantages of guns and knives, and when it comes to Lu Bu's cultivation, eighteen kinds of weapons, although he is not proficient in everything, but most of the essentials have been mastered, and it is more than enough to teach these thieves who can only use some dealers.

"In addition, no matter what kind of weapon, it is extremely important for the control of the power, only by controlling the power well, can you control the power of the body at will, and gather all the power of the body into the weapon, in order to exert the most powerful attack power." Lu Bu said that his body was dusty, twisted his waist and exerted his strength, and the mountain knife left a half-moon-shaped afterimage in the air, and everyone only heard a low humming, and three zhang away, a small tree swayed without wind, and many dead branches were shaken down.

"Whew~"

Exhaling a breath of turbidity slightly, Lu Bu glanced at the small tree that was still swaying, and felt a little helpless in his heart, he was not too satisfied with the power of this knife, after all, it was not the Fang Tian painting halberd that he was proficient in, in his expectation, he should be able to cut it off with one sword.

It's just that this knife that Lu Bu is not satisfied with has shocked everyone, including Guan Feng, Lu Feng, and Duan Yucheng, such a long distance, with only the sword wind, the power can be transmitted to such a distance, if this knife is slashed on a person, who can resist it?

"Next, practice on your own." Lu Bu threw the mountain opening knife to Guan Feng, pulled out his Fang Tian painting halberd with his backhand, and began today's practice.

Although these people were all singled out for collective training, in fact, Lu Bu only explained some martial arts essentials to them every day, and trained the tacit understanding of cooperation, in addition, it was self-cultivation, Lu Bu did not control too much, but even so, the more than 3,000 people in the prison dragon village are now scattered throughout Xunyang, in order to be able to come here to train, they are all robbed.

The quota of more than 100 people is not fixed, it changes once a month, and the capable ones are preferred, and every time the people who have received Lu Bu's training have a lot of strength after they go back, therefore, just for this, not only the people in each stronghold are crazy to exercise, but even the militia of this village is squeezed out of their heads, which also makes Lu Bu's subordinates Although there are only more than 3,000 people, they are extremely strong.

Because Lu Bu integrated the nearby cottages, making the vicinity of Xunyang City much more peaceful, and living up to the chaos of the past, plus Lu Bu is still the village chief here in name, so although he is aware of the existence of this force, the head of Jiujiang turns a blind eye, after all, the number of people is only thousands, in his opinion, in the face of tens of thousands of elites of the imperial court in Jiujiang, this mysterious village chief can't make any big waves, but can restrain the increasingly strong aliens.

"My lord, Chen Dare is here." A burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and Xiao Juan, dressed in a strong suit, who was completely different from the maid dressed in the past, ran into the school field panting, took the tea bowl handed by Wei Zhenzhen, and drank it very arrogantly, only then looked at Lu Budao, but his eyes couldn't help but be attracted by Duan Yucheng, who was practicing his own sword skills in the field.

"Let him in!" Lu Bu didn't stop cultivating, he just breathed lightly, and his voice didn't fluctuate in the slightest.

"Chen Dare has seen the lord." Chen Dang, who was dressed in military uniform, handed the steel gun in his hand to Xiao Juan, stepped to Lu Bu's side, and bowed.

"How's it going?" Lu Bu asked without looking back while dancing the halberd.

"Back to the lord, because of the help of Old Man Song, our private salt business has been done, and the first batch of private salt has been shipped to Guanzhong, if this trip is successful, we can earn at least 50,000 taels of silver." Chen dared to bow down.

"So little?" Lu Bu stopped dancing the halberd and frowned at Chen Dare Dao.

Fifty thousand taels, it seems to be a lot, but now Lu Bu has a lot of money, not all fifth-level cottages have cavalry to recruit, the prison dragon village can happen to appear horse thieves recruitment, it is really a big luck, the general cottage, even if it reaches the seventh level, there may not be horse thieves, so, if you want to have a cavalry, you must spend money to buy war horses, in addition, the food that is tight, as well as the weapons that the soldiers want, all need to spend money, and the supplies and weapons of the three thousand troops also need to form cavalry, 50,000 taels of silver, it is really a drop in the bucket.

With the change of mood, Chen Dang suddenly felt a sharp breath that made him breathless, but this breath disappeared quickly, Chen Dan said a little helplessly: "Although there is the help of Old Man Song, but the Haisha Gang has little power to bully us, and the price of salt is very high, plus it is transported to Guanzhong, and there are still joints that need to be opened, and thieves are rampant along the way, and after a trip, 50,000 taels of silver is already good." ”

The Haisha Gang, one of the eight gangs and sixteen guilds, has tens of thousands of gangs under its command, and there are 100,000 strangers serving under its command.

"Humph!" A flash of murderous intent flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, and Fang Tian's halberd suddenly burst into a cold light, and as Lu Bu's halberd fell, everyone in the entire school field felt the surrounding space shake.

Taking a deep breath, calming down the murderous aura in his heart that almost wanted to break out of his body, Lu Bu said lightly: "In any case, Old Man Song has helped me a lot, threaded the needle, and helped me prepare a generous gift and send it to Songjiashan City to express my gratitude." ”

Lu Bu knew very well that if it weren't for Song Lu's face, the Haisha Gang might not even sell the goods to them, and the Haisha Gang, which monopolized the illegal salt trade in the entire coastal area, didn't have to worry about no one buying salt, although the result did not satisfy Lu Bu, but this intention could not be ignored.

Such an important thing as private salt was actually in the hands of the gangs in the rivers and lakes, Lu Bu sneered, it is not for nothing that there is a big chaos in the world, and for the emperor who has never met, Lu Bu has a little more contempt in his heart.

"Also, my lord, because of our actions, although we have grown, the anti-imperial forces in the entire Xunyang territory are much weaker, and my subordinates are worried that the Jiujiang Taishou will restrict our development like Wei Chisheng did at the beginning, and now many Inhuman city lords or gangs have noticed us." Chen Dang gasped, feeling that the placket behind his back had been soaked with cold sweat.

"Only when you clench your fists can you make a stronger effort, and besides, it shouldn't be us who should be worried about that Taishou now, but those strangers." Lu Bu snorted coldly, and was a little surprised by the rapid development of the aliens, could it be that these aliens were really some kind of heavenly darlings?

"What is the situation of the soldiers everywhere now?" Lu Bu's pursuit of strength is a little urgent now, whether it is the growth rate of the alien or the information obtained from all aspects, it makes him feel like he will not wait for me.

"Back to the lord, the brothers everywhere are very diligent in their cultivation, especially after the lord passed down the set of boxing techniques to improve their physique, the brothers' martial arts have improved a lot." Saying this, Chen Kang raised his chest, obviously very confident in this regard.

"How's loyalty?" Lu Bu's face did not change, after the lessons of his previous life, he attached great importance to the loyalty of his subordinates, and on that brown book, he could see the loyalty status of each general, but he could not check the loyalty status of the soldiers below.

"Rest assured, the loyalty of these people is fine." Chen Dang immediately told Lu Bu about the training of the soldiers in various strongholds, and in order to improve the overall combat power, Lu Bu adapted the bloodline cultivation method into a set of boxing methods that could be cultivated by ordinary people.

The blood refining method, even in this era, is also a profound method, with high requirements for spiritual power and talent, it is difficult for ordinary people to practice, this set of methods created by Lu Bu is to use various movements of the body to accelerate the operation of qi and blood, so as to strengthen the physique, although the effect is not as strong as the blood refining method, but it is better than the low threshold, which can be promoted, and when the cultivation reaches a certain level, when the threshold of blood refining cultivation is reached, you can turn to learn the blood refining method.

It is also because of this set of exercises that the sense of belonging of all the soldiers is greatly condensed, plus Lu Feng is very good at training, and Chen Dare is responsible for passing on the exercises, and when the cultivation reaches a certain level and reaches the threshold, as long as they are tested, they can go to Lu Bu to practice more in-depth exercises, which makes these people more and more loyal to Lu Bu.

"But the brothers' weapons and horses are a bit of a problem." Chen Dan said with some distress: "According to the requirements of the lord, let the brothers be equipped with the best weapons, and the best place for weapons is the Dongming faction, the weapons made by our blacksmiths are only suitable for training, if you go into battle to kill, it is a little insufficient, even if the old man Song, when we don't have enough strength, there is no way to help us introduce to the Dongming faction." ”

"How?" Lu Bu turned his head to look at Chen Kang in surprise.

"The Dongming faction will only come to Middle-earth once or twice a year, accept the order and deposit, go back to build weapons and armor, and then deliver them to the door, and the transaction object is only the four major lords and some powerful rebels, we ......" Chen Dang did not continue, but the meaning is self-evident, and the current prison dragon village cannot enter the eyes of the Dongming faction.

"Where's the warhorse?" Lu Bu frowned and asked.

"War horses can be purchased at Pegasus Ranch, but we don't have enough money on hand, and we only order a few hundred war horses, and the price of good horses in Pegasus Ranch is very high, and it is not a bulk sale, they will not discount it." Chen Dang said with a bitter face.

"The cavalry must be built." Lu Bu was in a somewhat evil mood: "Even if you can't buy too much for the time being, first limit the number of cavalry to five hundred, plus Guan Feng's two hundred cavalry, and then buy three hundred war horses, and the rest, let's wait until we conquer Jiujiang." ”
