There is a stone pavilion on the top of the hill where the Licheng Guard is located, and a large bell hangs in the stone pavilion.

The bell is not only big, but also has a sound pattern on the bell. If it is struck, all the people of the city can hear it. Ringing three times, it is to gather all the city guards. Nine times, all the armed forces of the whole city must go to the barracks to assemble, and all the common people must be prepared to be on alert.

In the cold second half of the night, the bell rang again and again.

The families didn't know what was going on, whether it rang nine times, everyone slept in a daze, and the nine adults didn't hear clearly, but it was definitely more than three times, so they got up one by one in a daze, and asked questions. The bold are looking for weapons, and the timid are trembling.

Licheng theory of large-scale armed forces is three groups, one is the Licheng guard, the second is the government service, and the third is the government arrest.

The task is to assist the officials to maintain law and order, arrest prisoners, listen to the officials of Fa Cao, interrogate, beat criminals, and guard the cells.

There are also several classes of officials under the household, most of which are related to tax collection and tax collection, as well as taking care of various industries in the city lord's mansion.

The castle lord's mansion and the various cao, such as the subordinates who are in charge of guards, summons and other positions, are also called government officials.

It doesn't matter what, as long as the cultivation can keep up, even if it is a miscellaneous worker who sweeps the streets, it will be recruited.

There is also one of the most important forces.

If Licheng can devote all his strength to participate in this battle, the following results will be achieved.

Heibo Village has completely disappeared in the long river of history.

Most of the bandits who came to celebrate Heibo Village were killed or captured.

These bandits' nests are very secretive, and even if Hei Bo Bapu doesn't know about it, he won't ask stupidly. However, as long as you can catch a large number of prisoners of war and pry open their mouths, you can find one nest after another. I don't dare to say that they were all wiped out, but at least half of the bandits in Shiliang Mountain will be swept away by Licheng in the next few days.

If it was before, even if there was a large-scale sweep, the bandits would be like weeds, the autumn fire would not be exhausted, and the spring breeze would blow and regenerate. However, now there are two barracks, with Xiao Zhong's two families and Sanshanmen's settlement, which will allow Licheng to control at least half of Shiliang Mountain in the future.

Shiliangshan alone can't let the last force move.

In addition to the bandits, there are also various wastelands.

The four roads divide the Licheng wilderness into four areas, the two areas to the west are mostly low hills, but they are also relatively barren, and there are few streams in sight even near the sandy plains. The two eastern regions are backed by mountains, but they are the most fertile, scattered with numerous mountain streams, rivers and lakes. Because the northeast region is a large obtuse angle, almost half of the barren tribes are in the northeast area.

Most of these births are closely related to the Heibo people, and they can even be called subordinate tribes of the Heibo people. The Totem Festival of the Heibo Tribe, almost all of them sent people over.

As long as Licheng's strength is strong enough, these people will also be killed or captured tonight.

Gao Na may not be high, and there are so many wastelands. But it will not be low-level, and after the war, Licheng will inevitably make some deals with these prisoners of war. It cannot be said that since this battle, they have become desolate, but how much...... Especially those who are close to Licheng City will bow their unruly heads.

There weren't many bandits, and with their heads lowered, the various families in Licheng were able to expand their range of activities from less than a hundred miles outside the city walls to two hundred and fifty miles, or even three hundred miles. The area under actual control outside the city can be expanded by eight or nine times, and its area can be equivalent to several hundred times the area inside the city of Licheng, and the actual area that can be developed may reach tens of millions of mu, except for some high mountains and dense lakes. Now Licheng can't find so many people to develop it...... But with the credit of tonight, the ownership of this area can be divided in advance.

In the face of such great interests, which one is not moved?

How to divide it, the Xiao family and the Zhong family only talked about a rough idea, and in order to hide the Youxiong family, the two families secretly sent people to each Pin family after dark to inform them. The specific division will be discussed after the war. But if you don't participate in the second half of the night, you will definitely get nothing.

Also, if all the Pin families sent their family's powerhouses over, the Black Skeleton Army would also be in danger of being destroyed. On the surface, the Black Skeleton Army is going to be destroyed, and the benefit is that the Xiao family is the Zhong family. But without the containment of the Black Skeleton Army, in a few years, the trade route in the west and the deep wasteland of the sandy plain will become a golden road for all tasters!

Hearing the bell, it means that the front has attacked Heibo Village.

Almost all the Pinjia, or no Pin, large-scale families, quickly gathered the good hands of the family together and set off for the barracks.

Lu Wei will be on the front line with Hu Nancheng Cheng, and the Ye City Lord has an important task, and it is impossible for the Xiong family to participate.

The people who commanded became the Fa Cao Cao Master and the Gong Cao Cao Master, that is, the Xiao family head and the Zhong family master.

Under their dispatch, three groups of people were formed in Licheng City.

The first strand is all those who are above the enlightenment period, and fly to Heibo Village at the fastest speed. Flying is far faster than riding a horse, flying can walk in a straight line, and it is less than 400 miles to pull into a straight line, and at most it will take an hour to come, and this force can be put on the battlefield. If the cultivation is high, it won't even take an hour to rush to Heibo Village.

The second group is the master above the Xuanyuan period, although Licheng is large, there are actually not many masters above the enlightenment period, and some of them have been secretly transferred to Licheng, and there are only a few dozen people left. But above the Xuanyuan period, there are many of them, and some Jiupin families have one or two, two or three monks from the Xuanyuan period.

They can't fly, but they can cultivate to reach the Xuanyuan period, and their short-term running speed is better than the speed of horses, and they can also cross mountains and rivers across rivers, and they can walk almost in a straight line, at most two hours, and they can also rush to the battlefield.

The third wave obviously didn't have time to participate in the battle of Heibo Village, and there was still a battle, and the subsequent pursuit and suppression may go deep into Shiliang Mountain, where the terrain is complex, and even because of the Black Skull Army, it can go deep into the sand plains in the west.

Therefore, Lord Xiao Cao and Lord Zhong Cao only recruited monks who had cultivated above the congenital stage, and collected all the horses in the city, the war horses in the city guards, and the ordinary horses of various families in the city, and let them ride to Heibo Village. As for those below the congenital, including Lichengwei, each goes back to his own home, and finds his own mother, it has nothing to do with you.

The heads of the two families are urgently mobilized, and the people in the city are panicking.

The rest of the Zhong family was also a little panicked.

Zhong Hui knocks on her sister Zhong Qiang's door.

There are many differences between the Xiao family of the Zhong family and the Youxiong family, such as joint relatives, the Youxiong family is mainly related to various wastelands, mixed with two or three generations, and selects some outstanding children of ordinary people in Licheng City to join relatives, maintain excellent genes, and the advantage of being half human and half desolate. The direct children of the Xiao family and the Zhong family are divided into two types, one is in Licheng City, with the excellent children of each seventh-grade or eight-rank family, and the other is with the neighboring counties and even the sixth- and seventh-grade families in Pingwei Mansion.

But this time the two joined forces, and it was a joint effort in all aspects, including joint parenting.

More than a dozen direct and even descendant women of the Xiao family will marry the Zhong family at the end of the year, and the Zhong family is the same.

When the Xiao family's Zhong family planned Heibo Village, few people knew that when Jiang Ning participated, but only five battalion generals, five battalion deputies, some important elders of the two families, plus Lu Wei General and Ye City Lord, knew about this matter. Even later when the personnel were transferred, other excuses were used.

For example, the elite soldiers of the East Fourth Fort and the South Fourth Fort were mobilized, not to say that they would destroy Heibo Village, but that they would eliminate a great wilderness department in the west. used some excuses, and ordered the rest of the soldiers not to keep it secret, and whoever leaked it was punished with death.

Xiao Bushan brought back two groups of people, including some people who escorted the merchant goods, and after the merchant goods were escorted to Licheng, they were secretly controlled.

The people of the Xiong family are not fools, these movements of the two families, including the joint relatives, coupled with this large order that came out of thin air, the source of goods is mainly from Heibo Village, all kinds of things, so that the Xiong family suspects that Licheng may make a move to Heibo Village. They secretly investigated, and found some very bad clues, although there was no obvious evidence, but it made Xiong Qianhai more suspicious, so he notified Hei Bo Bapu.

Zhong Hui and Zhong Qiang are both the objects of joint parenting.

It is very difficult for the children of a large family to want to marry freely. There are some acts of "free love" in this world, but there is no such thing as free love. Most of them were like Dao Hanqing, who met with the daughter of the Dong family, and both parties felt good, and then the parents discussed, and the marriage was decided.

The two girls were not repulsed, and they were very happy.

The Dong family and the Xiao family are both in Licheng, both on Qingwei Street, even if they get married, it is convenient to go back to their parents' home, at least it is much better than marrying in other counties.

"Sister, what's going on?"

Zhong Qiang shook his head: "I don't know, but I just saw that the ancestor was also out of the customs, and he said happily, it's done, it's done." ”

"The ancestor is also out of the customs?"

"Not only did I get out of the country, but I looked very happy. ”

It is not easy to make the ancestor of the Zhong family happy.

After the Yue Dynasty pacified the Tang Kingdom, it divided into various family grades.

There are only nine Yipin families, the Huang family, the Yong family, the Jiang family, the Yu family, the Song family, the Hu family, the Fang family, the Zhong family, and the Jin family.

The Huang family is the most powerful, half of the world, Huang and Huang Qi, can be on a par with the royal family! The strength of the Yong family is a little weaker, but there are Yongbai shortcomings, who dares to underestimate it?

The Jin family's strength is not the weakest, but it made a serious mistake in Taiping City, it is rumored that because of the slaughter order of the head of the Jin family, the slaughter of tens of millions of civilians in half a day slaughtered the city, so the Yue Dynasty ranked the Jin family last.

In fact, the weakest should be the Zhong family, but this one is the weakest relative to the other eight families.

After hearing the news, Licheng, the head of the Zhong family, checked his family tree at home, and found that thousands of years ago, his family was a side branch of the Zhong family of the Monkey Nine Family. He rushed to Kyoto with his family tree in a hurry, but was swept out of the house by others, and said, what kind of dog and cat are also from our Zhong family, what is Licheng?

The ancestor of the Zhong family returned to Licheng in shame and anger, and could hardly retreat.

Zhong Hui was at a loss: "What can make the ancestor happy?"

"I don't know, Sister Hui, it's your wedding date soon, what are you preparing?"

Both families are big families, and there are strict rules for children's marriage, dowry, and dowry. However, as a woman, she must also secretly prepare some private money, as well as a few intimate maids, so that when she arrives at her husband's house, she will not be angry.

"Sister, your wedding date is still ahead of me. ”

It was not far from dawn, and the two girls simply did not sleep, talking privately. But on the other side, there is an important conversation.
