After agreeing to trade here in three days, Li De waited for Castro, who had sent Andébella away, to return, and set off to return to Daybreak City, despite the retention of Sam, the level 15 centaur chieftain.

Although this battle was delayed for a short time, the recovery was not a lot, and he needed to go back and sort out the gains obtained this time.

Sam stood by the riverside in the valley, watching Li De's figure slowly disappear into the sky, his face was a little complicated.

The thousands of centaur armies behind him were also watching the powerful existence that could enslave the dragon leave, and unlike when Li De came just now, these centaurs' eyes were full of anticipation at this time.

Sam's deal with Reed has spread throughout the Centaur tribe, and 500 sets of rare quality armor have made many strong centaurs excited.

That's a full set of armor, and I heard that the dwarves themselves forged it for them.

The god of centaurs is above, and they must be favored by the gods.

How strong the dwarven armor is.

Imagining the scene of themselves charging in thick armor, these centaur warriors couldn't help but be excited.

Within this land, power reigns supreme.

A good set of armor is definitely a dream of every centaur warrior.

The low hills are too barren, and with the long-term blockade of humans, not to mention complete armor, even a sharp iron weapon can be regarded as a treasure here.

At this moment, out of the group of centaurs came an elderly centaur with gray hair and a wrinkled face.

Stomp ~ Stomp ~ The horses' hooves trampled on the hard-yellow earth with a dull sound.

The old centaur in bone armor came to the centaur chief shaman, stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and looked up at Li De's vanished figure, with a little emotion in his cloudy eyes.

"Shaman, the Ironhoof tribe has slowly become an ordinary tribe since it was driven out of the city of the wind thousands of years ago.

If we want to return to the City of the Wind again, then this might be the perfect opportunity. ”

Sam turned his head and looked at the old centaur next to him, who was almost as tall as him, with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Father, can this city lord of Kachar really be trusted?"

Thinking of the scene of Li De stepping on the skull of the bone dragon and falling to the ground, Sam felt a sense of unease, especially the title "under the crown" has been haunting his mind.

The other party is really likely to be a transcendent crown, with such a powerful existence, can the Iron Hoof Tribe withstand it?

The old centaur shook his head, his eyes deep.

"Sam, take out your decisiveness, don't be a soft egg, the Ironhoof tribe doesn't need a chief who doesn't have courage.

Now that the decision has been made, I will unswervingly go forward.

If the Ironhoof Tribe is destroyed because of this, it will be the price we will pay. ”

The tone was firm and unshakable.

If you want to survive in this land, weakness is the last character you can't have, and the Ironhoof tribe has never needed this kind of garbage-like character.

The old centaur shook his head after speaking, "And the most important thing is that which Kachar City Lord has the strength to destroy us but chooses to cooperate,

This means that the benefits brought to them by the existence of the Ironhoof Tribe are greater than the direct destruction of us. ”

The old man and Ma saw this problem very thoroughly, and there was no friendship between different races, but it was just interests.

"Since the other party is not very malicious towards us, and what they bring is what we urgently need, this transaction ...... It's worth trying. ”

Sam nodded, and after listening to his father's instructions, the hesitation on his face was gone, and his gaze became firm again, the centaur was never afraid of any enemy.

Even if the other party is really uneasy and kind, he will definitely use his life to protect his tribe, even if the other party is an extraordinary person who enslaves the dragon!

And, if the mysterious Lord of Cachar really wants to trade with them, then this will be a great opportunity for the Ironhoof tribe to rise.

The Ironhoof tribe has been in decline for a long time, and Sam wouldn't even know that the original Ironhoof tribe was a royal tribe living in the City of the Windwind, and they once had a glorious past.

"However, just in case, you have a third of the tribe's population relocated to that hidden valley."

The old man spoke in a deep tone, and turned his head to look at the strong and mighty warriors of the Iron Hoof tribe behind him, and there was a bit of complexity in his eyes.

Although he is too old to use his strength to protect his tribe, he can still use the wisdom he has accumulated over the past hundred years to help the Ironhoof tribe survive.

Survival is the only and eternal theme in the endless years of this barren land.

City of Dawn.

After witnessing the fall of a city with a population of hundreds of thousands, Li De felt a strong sense of accomplishment when he came back to see this peaceful city.

This is the city that belongs to him, and he is the only master here!

People are still walking around the Dawn Square, the streets are becoming more and more lively, and the slowly cold weather can't stop the eager hearts of the residents.

The expressions on the faces of most of the residents were happy and relaxed, very different from the desperate civilians of Riesr after the city was destroyed.

And a large part of the residents of this ancestor were dressed in shabby clothes, and their expressions were somewhat wary and cautious, looking around the streets.

Obviously, these are the refugees from the border who have just been brought back.

These refugees, who have just lost their homes, have apparently not yet adapted to their new life in the City of Dawn.

After patrolling the skies of Daybreak City a few times, Lide let Castro land in the middle of Daybreak City.

When he rolled over and stood on the Dawn Square, a feeling that was not unfamiliar came to his mind—safety.

Yes, safety, for the first time in the City of Dawn, he felt as safe as he did on Earth.

No matter what happened before, even if he had several level 15 top-level combat power around him, he didn't have this kind of solid sense of security, but after experiencing the turmoil in Ris City at this time, he felt it.

In this land that belongs to him, he has found the same sense of security as in the earth of China.

"Good day, Kachar crowns ......"

"The ...... of the Lord of Kachar"

"Greetings to your most devout devotees, Your Great Crown......"

“......”

Not surprisingly, the residents in the square immediately bowed and greeted Li De in a large number of fields, like wheat ripening in the harvest season and bent down.

Li De had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and bowed slightly to the crowd around him.

He loved the City of Dawn, the city he had built with his own hands, and the rustic and pure inhabitants.

He followed the gaze of the crowd and walked step by step towards the town hall, beside him, in front of him, behind him, everywhere he passed, all the residents who bent down and saluted.

What is prestige, this is prestige.

The inhabitants who saluted were all respectful from the heart, with light in their eyes, smiles on their faces, and devotion in their hearts.

They did not encounter the reluctance of the nobles to salute in the outside cities.

That's a lot of respect and adoration.

And those residents who did not salute were all new without exception, and some even saw Li De for the first time, and looked at this scene with some helplessness at this time.

Li De was a little amused when he saw this scene, and he didn't care about the rudeness of the new residents, and after walking out of the square, he walked along the bluestone pavement that had been resurfaced to the city hall near the square.

His eyes looked around the street with interest.

It's the end of November and it's about to enter December, the air is blowing cold, and the pedestrians on the streets are wearing thick coats.

The streets around Daybreak Square have become more prosperous due to the influx of outsiders.

Almost all the shops of all sizes are lined with the streets.

Aunt Marry's Bakery, Giant's Grocery Store, Jasmine Flower Shop, Moonshine Tailor's Shop...... All kinds of shops with strange signs are open and bustling with people.

Almost everyday shops can be found on both sides of the street, and although they are not as diverse as those in Green City, they are still enough to meet the daily needs of residents.

This market has been cultivated by the town hall and is already taking shape, and in time it will develop into a place of true prosperity.

Li De shifted his gaze with satisfaction.

The streets are very clean, there are special garbage cans at a distance of thirty or fifty blades, and the managers with red armbands are monitoring the residents who do not follow the rules and spit on the ground, and if they are caught, they will be fined hefty and sent to the Ministry of Construction for labor reform.

Under the intense punishment, the city is cleaner than expected.

The clean and tidy streets have also made the quality of life of the residents rise rapidly, and the residents who have enjoyed the benefits have a high degree of support for this policy.

At this time, a small patrol of 10 people wore a full set of black armor and held a long sword majestically patrolling the streets.

The eyes of the residents around them were all respectful.

The army of Daybreak has a very high reputation in the eyes of its inhabitants.

This is not only because of their strength, but also because of the success of the Propaganda Department's constant propaganda, and the army of Daybreak has become an object of respect among the inhabitants.

As all the inhabitants know, this is an army led by the great Lord of Cachar himself, which is used to protect the city of Daybreak and protect the safety of its inhabitants and property.

There are their neighbors, their friends, their children...... It can be said that the King's Blade formed by Li De is an army that everyone supports.

This is unimaginable in the outside world, the army has always been a blade to maintain the power of the nobility, and the butcher's knife is aimed at the commoners more than at the monsters.

Commoners are crazy to embrace the armies of the nobility.

In the City of Daybreak, all this is logical, even his own army is not respected, and he is still worthy of being a resident of the City of Daybreak?

If you don't respect the army, you don't respect the city lord of Kachar, you don't respect the city lord of Kachar, you don't respect everyone, and you have to be beaten out of your head when you go out.

Moreover, the residents have heard that as long as they join the army personally established by His Majesty Kachar, they can also get the richest reward from the city lord of Kachar for their outstanding performance - becoming a Holy Light Blood Clan.

The goddess is above, the Holy Light Bloodline!!

It was the patron of the City of Dawn, the most revered and noble presence in the city.

Becoming a member of the Holy Light Blood Clan can not only gain supreme status and great power, but also be able to live forever!

There simply doesn't get any more enticing reward than that.

Therefore, being able to join the King's Blade is the dream of almost every young person in the City of Dawn.

was personally received by the city lord of Kachar, and even had the opportunity to become a Holy Light Blood Clan.

It's just fascinating.

"Salute!"

The neatly paced patrol team stopped in unison after seeing Li De, and the team leader immediately shouted, and then everyone saluted with hammers in their hearts.

The movements of the patrol team are as if carved out of a mold, neatly aligned, and with the armor on their bodies, they look even more handsome and majestic.

Li De nodded with satisfaction, and he copied a detailed explanation of the training of the Earth Army on the Internet and used it on the King's Blade.

That's why it's so majestic and handsome.

Although the salute is no longer placed on the temples with the fingers together, the majestic posture is still undiminished.

The most direct manifestation of the orderliness of the army is the substantial increase in military appearance, coupled with the strict rules of the King's Blade, which has made this army have taken shape.

Although his strength is still relatively weak, Li De believes that as long as he cultivates well, he will inevitably have a strong army.

"For the dawn!"

Li De returned the salute to the soldiers in the same way, and after he withdrew his hand, the patrol members put their hands down in unison.

These young warriors looked at Li De with admiration and trust in their eyes, the great presence they had sworn allegiance to, the lord of the City of Dawn, and the great presence that brought them hope.

"For the dawn!"

The slogans shouted by the soldiers were sonorous and powerful, which made the surrounding residents look sideways, and even many young people and children saw this scene with a strong yearning in their eyes.

They also want to become warriors of the King's Blade, commanded by the Lord of Cachar, and contribute to the City of Daybreak.

In order to break the dawn, this is the slogan set by Li De himself.

It's such a simple slogan, but it brings unparalleled cohesion.

In just four words, the army of Daybreak knows who they are fighting for, and the inhabitants know what they are paying for.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this slogan directly condenses the soul of the City of Daybreak, a soul of perseverance.

Li De can even imagine the scene of these soldiers stepping on the battlefield and dying generously for the sake of the faith in their hearts.

After saluting, the soldiers of the patrol departed with their heads held high and marching in order.

Li De also returned to the city hall under the adoring gaze of a group of residents.

3rd floor office.

Reed stepped into his office with his front foot in front of him, and Harrison followed in with his back foot.

"Good day, patriarch."

"Good day", Li De turned his head to look at Harrison, who was wearing a blue mage robe, slightly thin, and smiled slightly, "How is the goblin arrangement?" ”

Intervening in the war in Risr City, he is for the group of dwarfs who can make alchemy bombs, and whether the air force of Dawn City can be formed depends on whether these cowardly guys can give it their strength.

He was looking forward to seeing the alchemy bomb wash the floor.

Harrison nodded slightly, his tone respectful.

"Patriarch, we have divided a house in Nancheng District and arranged the goblins."

Unlike the dwarves, the goblins' dwellings are all in the same area for ease of management.

Harrison wasn't worried at all that these guys would rebel or anything, these willpower was too far from the little ones and dwarves that eleven or twelve-year-old human kids had.

Not to mention resisting, Harrison estimated that a small number of those who wanted to rebel against the other would immediately stop their companions and report to the Bloodline.

Because the town hall has a joint system for goblins, 100 goblins are divided into groups, and if one of the goblins rebels, all the goblins will be executed.

Of course, this policy is purely to scare these guys, and Li Deke is reluctant to let these laborers be wasted.

But the goblins didn't dare to take it seriously, they were facing vampires, and this policy frightened these timid guys into turning pale, and patted their chests one by one to ensure that there would never be any chaos.

And from time to time, he stared at his companions with suspicion, for fear that they would accidentally do something and affect themselves.

Pride and arrogance, timidity and cowardice, these two extremely contradictory character goblins are possessed, and the character flaws are too obvious, and the problem of goblins can be easily solved with a policy.

Li De nodded, Harrison had always been relieved that goblins were not a difficult race to deal with.

Besides, after coming to the City of Daybreak, no matter who he is, he has to work honestly for him according to the rules and create benefits for the City of Daybreak.

Want to rebel? Is my knife disadvantageous?

"What about the nobles of Lysr City who have just been brought back?"

The goblins were fine, and Lide turned his attention to the nobles of the city of Riesr.

These highly qualified populations are what he desperately needs, and the City of Dawn has yet to establish a school.

There was excitement in Harrison's eyes.

"Patriarch, you just finished registering before you returned.

The two thousand humans transported back by Marquis Stanley were all literate, and among them were 45 mage apprentices and 12 full-fledged mages.

237 blacksmiths, 145 tailors, 220 pharmacists, 78 alchemists, and 324 scholars......"

What followed was a series of numbers, and Li De didn't fully remember how many of them there were.

The only thing that is certain is that among the more than 2,000 people in this first batch, all of them are talents that the City of Dawn lacks.

Even a blacksmith can make a big difference when he's about to start trading with centaurs.

And the most curious of this group of people are the 7 polymaths.

Erudito is quite powerful in this world, and is a noble existence respected by everyone, even if Erudito does not have the title of nobleman, but he can still make the nobleman as a guest at the table.

Because polymaths have a great deal of knowledge, and knowledge is an extremely precious treasure in this world.

"Separate the polymath from the ordinary scholars, and the future school will be built on them.

As for the rest of the civilians, they will be dealt with as normal. ”

After finishing speaking, Li De's expression slowly became cold.

"This group of people is the upper echelons of the city of Riesl, and many of them even have noble titles on them.

When they suddenly lose their status, they will inevitably have an imbalance in their hearts, and these imbalances may not make them do something risky.

They are educated, able to think for themselves, and enjoy a good life, which is very different from the people who come from the border.

Even our Propaganda Department is afraid that it will be difficult to influence their preconceived notions for a while.

So this group of people, you have to pay attention to, they will have different hearts. ”

Li De's tone did not change, and he made a conclusion directly.

It is impossible for him to use the original aristocratic system, those nobles will be deprived of their status by him, there is only one system here - the point system where the blood clan is king.

He knows humanity too well, and because the civilians on the border are doing poorly, they will be extremely welcoming to the city of Dawn, which can provide them with a ruined life.

But the nobility is different, they are powerful in their own land, and when they come to the City of Dawn, they will be deprived of all their power, not to mention, they will have to live with the commoners they used to look down on.

Can the human nobles endure such a thing??

If you don't make some moths, Li De definitely doesn't believe it.

Harrison's expression was a little solemn when he heard this, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on them."

Do we need to separate them like the dwarves? ”

The corners of Li De's mouth hung a playful arc, and he took a deep look at his right hand.

"Harrison, you still don't understand the essence of political struggle.

Suppress one piece, win over a group, and unite one.

These twelve words can be used well, and it is easy to deal with human beings.

Humans are not dwarves, they have independent minds, they are deeply wary of their partners, and most of them are only willing to believe in themselves. ”

Looking at Harrison's thoughtful expression, Li De did not hide it and explained directly.

"This time, the nobles of Riesr City, you can experiment with these twelve words yourself.

First of all, you have to place these nobles in adjacent residential areas, not too far away and not too close.

Then it is only necessary to observe closely, and these nobles will naturally jump out on their own.

Those who are sideways, ambitious, and active in themselves, will form their own circle.

When the time comes, you only need to insert a few eyeliners in this group of people, and you can easily distinguish who we want to fight, who we are trying to win over, and who we are united.

It could even go a step further, and ambitious groups could co-opt some of them and have their group collapse automatically.

For example, giving an additional reward to a human being, giving them a lot of money and noble status, and suppressing other of them, depriving them of their wealth and degrading their status,

After this operation, imbalances will appear, and suspicion and jealousy will slowly cause these humans to slowly become conflicted, and it only takes a little more effort to break up within their own organization.

This is just the most basic way to operate, we have the absolute initiative, and we can easily clean them up. ”

Harrison looked at Reed, with admiration rising in his eyes.

A patriarch is a patriarch, and every time he acts, he is always so surprised.

Li De looked at Harrison's expression and smiled slightly, "These are all trails, it's okay to play occasionally, and you don't have to be too addicted to it."

This group of 2,000 people is okay, and there will be more than 8,000 people coming in the future, how to solve the hidden danger of the nobles of Lysle City, you can just go to it yourself.

The initiative has always been in our hands, and the rules are our designation. ”

"As you wish, Patriarch," Harrison nodded solemnly.

After seeing that Harrison paid attention to this matter, Li De didn't say much.

As the master of the city, he controls the army, he controls the finances, he controls the hearts and minds, he controls everything in the city, and as long as he doesn't allow it, no one can make waves in the city.

Teaching Harrison today is just a vaccination, and there will inevitably be more similar problems in the city of dawn in the future.

Is he unwilling to deal with these small things in person every time, the city hall must form a relatively mature plan, and let him raise so many people to eat dry food?

After the pre-arrangements for Goblin and Riesl City were over, Li De fell into deep thought.

He was greatly touched by the war in the city of Riesl, and he came back to prepare for the second round of major construction.

But there are too many directions to build, and he can't make up his mind for a while, and he still needs to consider the longer-term planning of Daybreak City.

After thinking about it, Li De suddenly found that he had missed a very important piece of information, and hurriedly asked.

"Harrison, how many people are there in Breaking Dawn right now?"

Harrison's expression was a little excited, and his tone was proud.

"Patriarch, after nearly two months of plundering, the population of the City of Dawn has exceeded 30,000 people!!

The South Side is already two-thirds full! ”

30,000 people? Li De's expression was a little surprised.

I didn't expect this plundering population to be so powerful, it's only been a long time, and it's not even December.

Maybe this winter harvest will be beyond imagination.

Li De's mood instantly improved a lot.

Population, these two words represent too many meanings.

Population is the foundation of everything in Daybreak, and all other developments are built on it.

The development of the army needs the support of the population, the mage apprentice needs a large number of people to sift, and even the farming needs people, and the sweeping streets also need people, everything can be lacking, but only people cannot be lacking.

To measure the potential of a power, population is definitely a very important mark.

The country of Ah San on the earth, how rotten it is, can still claim to be the third in the world, they are all supported by the population.

"Very good, you guys did a good job", his participation in the war in Lysle City did not affect the pace of development of Daybreak City at all, which made Li De very pleased.

The town hall system, which he had spent so much effort building, was finally getting stronger and stronger.

"Next, we are going to start the second round of construction......" Li De said in a deep tone.

After this winter, he wants to make the city more prosperous and magnificent.
