The teleportation of more than 300 people consumed all the spar mines in the territory of the Tower of China, and the entire output of more than a month. This means that after a few more transmissions of this scale, many factories and equipment will fall into a situation where there is no spar available. Therefore, Xiao Chen's action can be described as a huge cost.

Even if Ji Yijun is so arrogant, many things are not brains, and they all feel the huge pressure from Xiao Chen.

If this operation fails, or if it suffers a very large loss, it will have a great blow to the prestige that Xiao Chen has just begun to establish.

Ji Yijun, Umeda Tian and Xiao Chen were teleported in the same batch, and when they stepped down from the teleportation array in Cypress City, Ji Yijun glanced at Xiao Chen beside him and found that although his face was calm, there was an indescribable sense of seriousness.

He said: "Xiao Chen, don't be too tight, you have done your best, I heard the news yesterday, we have come to the front line tonight, what else?"

Xiao Chen said: "I know, but there are too many things, if you don't work hard enough, there will be good results." It's not like waiting for the results to come out and say that I have done my best, and then I can explain the past.

Since yesterday, every choice I have made has been related to the life and death of thousands of people, and the pressure is huge. ”

Ji Yijun said: "Cut, it's not the first time for you, what did you do in the past that wasn't related to the life and death of many people? Could it be that this time you have a seat under your ass, you are not decided?"

Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "You kid can, I'm really comforted by you." ”

Xiao Chen and the others walked out of the teleportation room and saw an old acquaintance who greeted them, Ye Zi, who was in charge of city defense in Cypress City.

Ye Zi saw Xiao Chen and smiled: "Senior, oh, no, Chairman Xiao, I didn't expect you to lead the team by yourself." ”

"Don't call Chairman Xiao, the senior is very good. Xiao Chen said.

Ji Yijun said: "Xiao Chen can rest assured that he can't stop working on your side, and he must come to inspect it in person before stopping." ”

Ye Zi was fooled by him, and sneered: "I think it's almost as bad as worrying about you." ”

"It's right to say I'm not at ease, but I'm not at ease with my plan. Let's take a look at it for yourself and solve the problems that we find in time. Xiao Chen said, "What's more, I'm also a great magician now, and it shouldn't be a problem for one person to solve the enemy's team, and with one more me, the grasp of stopping the enemy will naturally be so much bigger." ”

"It's a new chairman, and I never thought that the chairman of the committee would come and fight with me. Ye Zi said.

"I, the acting chairman, let me sit in my office and wait to read the report, I can't do it. In the future, you will definitely have many more chances to see me outside Hewan New Town than in the city. I'd rather be a wheeler than a rubber stamp. Xiao Chen laughed at himself, "Having said that, after informing you of the information yesterday, how about the situation in the villages and towns that you have notified downward?"

Ye Zidao: "Since you gave us the action plan yesterday, we have arranged for people to send notices to the village committees of each village. To tell the truth, according to the correspondents, most of the villages still feel uncertain and are worried that the Imperials will cause disaster to their villages.

In the larger villages, the militia team is building quite well, and we have sent politically qualified and skilled veterans to the station, as representatives of the escort army and militia captains, and have basically built a militia team of two squads to a platoon or so, and since before the war with the empire, we have basically had to drill four or five times a week, and the equipment is also generally equipped with air guns, and there will be live-fire training every week.

If a dozen or so sick Imperial warriors attacked a village like that, they should be able to solve it themselves.

But those small villages really don't have such conditions. Originally, the population of those villages was small, and there were few young and middle-aged people of appropriate age, and women were often brought over to serve as militiamen, and they did not necessarily have a squad, and the smallest village may have only one militia captain and three or five militiamen, because the work is relatively heavy, so there is a lack of training time, and the combat effectiveness of these people is also very limited.

In fact, when some villages heard about this situation, they wanted to flee and evacuate the whole village. Our correspondent reassured them that we would send a team to their village, but even we were not sure how many of them would be there.

I didn't even expect that when I saw the team you brought over today, there were several mages in each team. With a team like yours sent over, the villagers can rest assured. ”

Xiao Chen said: "It seems that the village also needs our people to stabilize the situation. I'm going to assign the village and the team right away. Our team set off overnight, and the sooner we arrived in the villages, the sooner we could settle the people. ”

"Okay. But......" Ye Zi looked at Umeda and them, "These children, are they also here to protect the village?"

Ji Yijun said: "Hey, how do you know, don't you think they are too young?"

Ye Zi said: "It's not too small, if you have dealt with the militia in the village, you will find that there are many such half-sized children." ”

Ye Zi arranged for the soldiers here, and the blocking team that was teleported over was taken to a square outside the teleportation room in batches, torches were lit around the square, and spar searchlights were also arranged, and a large number of tables and chairs were placed in the middle of the square for the soldiers to rest. There is also hot food and water around, so that everyone can replenish some energy here.

And she herself took Xiao Chen and his party to an office, where seven or eight people gathered and were sorting out the information of various villages and towns.

Ye Zi pointed to a large map on the wall and said: "Between the north of Cypress City and Suero, there are a total of thirty-seven villages under our control, and there are five other villages, which are still in the hands of the local nobles, and we don't have the energy to deal with them now, and the other three villages are now in a state of autonomy, they are all villages formed by freemen or slaves who have escaped from the aristocratic territory, and they don't pay taxes to others and basically live a self-sufficient life, so they are also more resistant to our rule." What should we do with this village?"

Xiao Chen saw that villages of different natures were marked with different small flags. The red ones are the villages they control, most of them are around Cypress Town, or near the main road, the villages marked blue are often bordered by the territories of other nobles, and the autonomous villages marked green are mostly in remote areas.

"Of course, we prioritize our own villages, but for the other two villages, this is an opportunity to control them," he said. ”
