With Xiao Ke's order issued, soon the Bai Ze City area began to be fortified and cleared.

The largest towns in the Bai Ze City area are all in Nan County, and it just so happened that Xiao Ke was in charge of the four towns of Nan County during this time, and the four towns of Nan County were still very convinced of Xiao Ke, so the hundreds of thousands of residents of the four towns of Nan County were smoothly moved to Bai Ze City.

The residents of more than a dozen other towns and dozens of villages, under Xiao Ke's strong orders, although a few people were not very happy, they were all forcibly relocated to Bai Zecheng in the end.

In the end, more than 1.5 million people were relocated into Bai Ze City, Xiao Ke moved the headquarters of the Steel Wheel to Bai Ze City, and Bai Ze City suddenly poured into a large number of people, but it did not feel crowded at all. One reason is that Bai Ze City is one of the few big cities in the Land of Lawlessness, which can accommodate a very large population, and the other reason is that the people in Bai Ze City know that the zombie army is coming, and most of the people who are killed, don't want to take risks, and have the conditions to escape, have fled.

Especially those vendors, who basically ran away.

Those who stayed were basically like the four overlords of Bai Ze, who had a foundation in Bai Ze City and refused to abandon their foundation and leave, and the other was the aborigines of Bai Ze City, these aborigines would not be willing to leave their homeland and run away at any time.

In fact, the aborigines can only stay, because they can't run, they go to other provinces, they have no qualifications and no way to enter the metropolis to live, and they can only become displaced people in other places, basically the displaced people are struggling with life and death every day, and most of the displaced people are dying of hunger, cold and disease. Therefore, most of the local aborigines chose to stay, and the people of the landless land were fierce, and even the people planned to fight with the zombies.

The work of clearing the field of the fortified wall is carried out in a tense and orderly manner, and Xiao Ke's second step of work is to actively contact the organizations and super powerhouses of several other big cities in the Landless Land, after all, the zombie invasion is not a matter of Bai Zecheng alone, and the entire Landless Land needs to unite to resist.

Just when Xiao Ke was actively contacting the princes of other big cities in the Land of Lawlessness, the royal family of Zhongzhou Qilin City also sent news.

His Majesty learned that Xiao Ke and others intercepted the advance team of zombies, gave absolute affirmation, and also sent a messenger to send a holy decree, announcing that Xiao Ke would be promoted from a ninth-class baron to a seventh-class earl, with 700 households and a fief in Cangwu County.

This news made the whole Wheel of Steel extremely excited, and they rushed to be the first to tell it.

Although Xiao Ke was promoted by His Majesty again, it seems that it has nothing to do with everyone, but in fact, everyone is Xiao Ke's subordinates, the so-called one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, as long as Xiao Ke's status rises, they will naturally rise to the top of Xiao Ke's subordinates.

And Xiao Ke can be said to be the fastest promoted among the commoners, only 25 years old, but he is already the earl of the empire. If you continue to maintain this speed, then the promotion of marquis, duke, county duke, prince of the county, prince of the county, and prince is just around the corner, and the real future is immeasurable!

What's more, everyone can see that Xiao Ke is the target of the new Emperor Jiang Ning's key training, and His Majesty's recent confidants and celebrities, everyone is more determined to follow Xiao Ke's side, struggle together, and strive to worship the general.

To be promoted to earl, Xiao Ke is naturally happy, but compared to his own title promotion, Xiao Ke is actually more concerned about whether the empire will send a large army to support the landless, if the empire sends troops, then Xiao Ke feels that the pressure is not great, after all, the empire has cultivated a lot of new generation of strong people over the years, and the older generation of strong people is also like a cloud, if the empire sends troops, even if all the 12 corpse pillars come to attack the land, it is not to be afraid.

However, Xiao Ke also knows that although the comprehensive strength of the empire has become stronger over the years, it may not lose if it is a tough zombie in the face.

But the problem is that people are animals who like to fight, taste internal friction, and refuse to unite well.

Now the inside of the empire is like this, the imperial family wants to prosper, the family headed by the cabinet and the high-ranking clans all want to control the government, the imperial family and the cabinet are fighting behind their backs, and the land of lawlessness has long been abandoned by the empire, and it is only in the past two years that after the new emperor Jiang Ning ascended the throne, Jiang Ning had the idea of recovering the landless land.

But whatever the imperial family wants to do, the cabinet is against it, so whether the empire will send troops to reinforce the landless land, Xiao Ke doesn't dare to say.

So, when Xiao Ke was entertaining His Majesty's angel and his party, he privately asked the envoy Chen Xiao'an, who was the leader: "Chen Xiaogong, I don't know what the situation is in the imperial capital, Your Majesty and the elders of the pavilion, are you interested in sending troops into the land of lawlessness to block the army of the dead country?" ”

Chen Xiaogonggong didn't know what he wanted to say just now, after all, he didn't want to talk about this kind of thing casually.

But before he could speak, Xiao Ke still took advantage of the gap between the words and quietly stuffed a piece of paper into his hand.

Chen Xiaogonggong was stunned for a moment, looked down, and saw that it was a money ticket of 100,000 gold coins, and it was a koi money bank money ticket jointly operated by the five major families, this kind of money ticket can be withdrawn from any koi money bank, and there will be absolutely no problems.

In these years, His Majesty Jiang Ning has no money to spare, and the queen mother and concubines in the palace are not having a good time, not to mention the eunuchs and palace maids.

Although Chen Xiaogonggong is one of the more important among the many little eunuchs in the palace, it is the first time he has received such a large sum of 100,000 gold coins, and he instantly feels a little hot and excited.

After a slight hesitation, he quietly put it away.

got the benefits, and said that Xiao Ke is also His Majesty's celebrity, Chen Xiaogonggong has to tell Xiao Ke a little bit of news, he said in a low voice: "When Your Majesty asked us to come, there was no other command except for promulgating the holy decree. However, I heard that His Majesty and the cabinet elders have been arguing endlessly for the past few days, and His Majesty is advocating sending troops to support the lands that cannot be helped, but the cabinet elders have prevaricated for various reasons, and what will happen in the end, and the little ones dare not guess casually, please let the Earl decide for himself. ”

Xiao Ke frowned slightly when he heard this, and nodded: "Okay, thank you Chen Xiaogong for announcing it, come here, invite Chen Xiaogong and his party to the banquet, and wait for Chen Xiaogong and his party to hurry back to Qilin City." ”

"Yes, Grand Commander!"

Duan Canglong and Luo Hu took Chen Xiaogonggong and his party to the banquet.

In the living room, there were only Xiao Ke and Ling Feng, Ye Yun, Qin Bing and other capable subordinates, Xiao Ke sighed to everyone: "It seems that the reinforcements of the empire, let's not have too much hope for the time being, this time to resist the zombie invasion, we have to rely on ourselves, rely on the power of the land." Ling Feng, Qin Bing, you two prepare, we are ready to set off, go to other cities, visit several leading figures of the big organizations in the Lands of Lawlessness, and strive to unite with them and resist the zombies. ”

"Yes, Grand Commander!"
