Chapter 218: Witchcraft

Zhen Ning said: "Although our "Zhenshi Sales Company" relies on water transportation, the impact is not too great, but the land transportation has been almost cut off, and now the cities and forts can only fight on their own, I heard that there have been several 丨Rong Forts丨 have been captured by the Li Yi rebels, I think we have to take precautions in advance."

Gu Yi was a little surprised, originally he thought that with the strict military city of the Great Wilderness, the control over the local area would be very strong, but he didn't expect that just the rebellion of some ethnic minorities would lead to the huge Qingshan Mansion becoming a plate of scattered sand, are those Liyi rebels all superhuman?

"Then our Ma Daojian design is in vain?"

Gu Yi rubbed his chin and frowned, "Also, isn't Eclipse Stone City丨 under the jurisdiction of 丨Qingshan Mansion丨?With such a serious rebellion, can't the other 丨Shicheng丨 of Qingshan Mansion rush to help?丨The prefects of Zhongrong County丨 don't they also ignore it?"

"No, not only did our horse road construction not come to naught, but the cities and forts have increased and accelerated their investment and support for the horse road construction, and at the same time, they are also ordering a large amount of cement from us."

Zhen Ning shook his head: "On the basis of the cement consumption for the construction of the horse road, the order has more than tripled, if it is not for the limitation of transportation volume, it is difficult to transport a little farther away, and it is estimated that this demand will increase dozens or even hundreds of times."

Gu Yi nodded, this is very reasonable, as long as you are not a fool, you should be able to see how much of a role this artifact of cement has in building defense, and it is strange not to treat it as a key military item.

And the construction of the horse road, in order to clear the Liyi rebels flowing all over the land, and tired of running for their lives, the cities and forts are more convenient for the deployment of soldiers, transport heavy weapons of mass destruction, there was no such thing before, even if it was not, now there is such a good thing, there is no reason not to use it.

"As for what Shaoyi said about Shangguan not sending guards to help... The recent rebellion is not only in Qingshan Mansion, but in Zhongrong County, among the nine prefectures, there are rebellions in the land of three prefectures, and some of the heroes who are dormant on weekdays have also taken advantage of the situation.

This partner with miraculous means is good at everything, but he is too ignorant of the world.

"And the county king of Zhongrong County丨 County has already been anxious, and the eighty-one counties in Zhongyou have already appeared in turmoil, 'Thousands of villages are thunderbolts, and thousands of households are singing, and the situation is not a matter of one or two days. ”

Zhen Ning smiled bitterly: "It's just that recently, several county governments near the Yinyang Pass have lost their battles, and a large number of defeated troops and displaced people have crossed the Yinyang Pass, and died across the Eight Thousand Sacred Bone Plains, burning the war to the Zhongrong County, which is barely a paradise, in order to resist the rout, the soldiers in the land of Jiufu are not enough to resist the enemy, and there is still energy to suppress the rebellion." ”

Gu Yi smacked his tongue, although he had heard that this great desolate world was very chaotic before, but the Iron Furnace Fort丨 was quite peaceful and peaceful in the jurisdiction, and he didn't have any sense of war, but he didn't expect it to be so serious now?

"It is precisely because of this kind of war and chaos that all parts of the country are desperately hoarding grain and materials, although our sales company is trying its best to buy grain, the share of grain that can be received has dropped by more than 30% compared with last month, and it is estimated that in a few months, not a single grain of grain will be harvested."

Zhen Ning said with some concern: "Shaoyi, are we temporarily holding in the people? Although there have been countless food hoards in Bluestone City during this period ......of time, which is enough to feed for several years, the more the population is, the greater the consumption, and I don't know how long this war will last, so we have to take precautions as soon as possible."

Gu Yi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "If you don't continue to contain the people, the population is not too large and not limited to 20 million, the merchant owner can move as much as he wants, even if he has as much grain as he can, he still buys as much as possible, isn't it spring now?"

Zhen Ning was dumbfounded, did this Shaoyi's madness attack again? Now that the lords of the feudal towns in various places are clearing and reducing the subordinates of the feudal provinces in order to save grain, he has opened up the recruitment of subordinates?

"It's... Now it is not difficult to collect the subordinate people, the subordinate camps and subordinate columns in various places are clearing and reducing the subordinate people, and some of them will simply cancel the establishment of the subordinate column, and drive the subordinate people into the wilderness to fend for themselves, and now they are sheltering the subordinate people, and they don't even need to negotiate with the officials, as long as the news is released, those who have been expelled from the subordinate camp and the subordinate column will migrate by themselves. ”

Zhen Ning was puzzled: "But why is Shaoyi's move? Although the grain we have hoarded is huge, it can't withstand several waves of 'sub-tides, disturbances. If it's to organize the people to protect themselves, I'm afraid they won't be able to stop those strongmen of the Liyi Hundred Clans, right?"

Gu Yi smiled: "It's not just for the sake of self-protection of the crowd, although the merchant owner can rest assured that recruiting people is my own usefulness."

The Great Wilderness World Realm is too big, so big that Gu Yi feels frightened, and he doesn't dare to leave the area he is familiar with easily, for fear that he won't be able to reach his destination after going out for half his life, but except for those population gathering areas, the land of this Great Wilderness World Realm is so fertile and rich in Gu Yi's opinion that people can't wait to scold their mother.

The most infuriating thing is that such a large area of ownerless land is in an undeveloped state of pristine ecology, but those lords of the city have locked a huge number of subordinate people in the subordinate pen as livestock, ignoring human rights, and tyrannizing heavenly things to make this fertile land pearl dusty, how can this make people embarrassed?

Before丨Bluestone City丨 has not yet developed even if it is not developed, but now there are complete technical talents and sufficient resources, and the business of "Tiangong Group" has also embarked on the track of conscience cycle.

What reason did he have to take advantage of the fact that the aborigines of this great wilderness had no time to get involved in him, harvest the population and expand it to the fullest, so that he was worried about the chaos of Li Yi, but Gu Yi felt that this was a perfect opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation

"But... But..."

Seeing that Gu Yi didn't seem to understand what he meant, and realizing the seriousness of Li Yi's trouble, he couldn't help but stammered a little anxiously, unable to think of what reason to use to dissuade Gu Yi's irrational behavior.

"Merchant, don't worry"

Gu Yi comforted Ning with a big grin: "You see that there are so many people's villages, but the scale of tens of thousands of people, the defense is even worse than ours, and the old nose is far away, no one is worried, we have a population of millions of people, what is there to worry about?"

Blocked by Gu Yi's crooked reasoning, Su Ning found that Gu Yi seemed to have a completely blank understanding of the environment and situation of the Great Wilderness World, as a Qi Rong who had awakened the blood soul, but he didn't even know the existence of the "Blood Soul Prohibition", and naively thought that if the population was large enough, he would be able to have a strong enough self-preservation, which made Lu Ning not know how to explain it to Gu Yi for a while.

After pondering for a while, Ling Ning said: "Shaoyi may think that a large population is a good thing, but Shaoyi has ever thought about why the other feudal lords would expel the subordinate population ten times that of the feudal people, instead of using them to resist the rebels of the Liyi Hundred Tribes?"

"Do you think the strength of the people is too weak, or do you think they have too many people and consume too much food, so they will be expelled to save food and ensure that the fiefdom can hold on for a longer time?"

Gu Yi also felt strange, before the army attacked, he expelled the vitality of his subordinates, what kind of cheapness is this?

"No matter how weak the people are, they can build city defenses, transport baggage, and bear logistics, and no matter how bad they are, they can also be used as subordinate soldiers, and the right to be a human wall and meat shield consumes the enemy soldiers, how can they be abandoned by the lord of the city and expelled like a broom?"

Zhen Ning smiled bitterly: "It is really that among the Liyi tribes, there are many witches, and they are good at killing and killing souls, driving away corpses and exorcisms, and poisoning and plague techniques, and these subordinates live in large numbers outside the city, and they are the most vulnerable to poisoning."

Even Zhenning, a well-informed person, also showed a hint of fear in his eyes: "As long as there is a subordinate who is poisoned by the witch with the witch technique, he will soon be reborn as a ghoul driven by the witch, and the demon is evil, one to ten, ten to hundred, but half a day's kung fu can form a sea of corpses, and it is impossible to kill."

Gu Yi is creepy, what is it?Maoshan corpse chasing?necromancer?Or is Yu Crisp Nima's version of Resident Evil?

Just as he was about to ask, Gu Yi suddenly reacted: "No, what's the merchant said, 'Wuxi, or' Wuxi, since you can poison the people outside the city, why can't you poison the people in the city? The number of people in any fiefdom will not be less than there, right?"

"Shaoyi still hasn't figured it out, the lord of the city drove out the subordinates in order to prevent them from becoming the flesh and blood of the witch refining ghouls and demons, and without the large number of subordinates gathered in the subordinate fence outside the city, it would be easier to guard against at least it"

Zhen Ning was a little speechless about Gu Yi's ignorance: "I'm afraid Shaoyi still doesn't know the way, the so-called 'military and civilian division, right?, our Stone Eclipse City丨, 丨Iron Fort ⊥ place, are all remote and remote places, belonging to the border land, the military city丨, 丨Rong Fort丨..."

“... Different from the general Shicheng and Minbao in the inner region, there are a large number of soldiers and soldiers stationed in the inner region, and the guards such as Zhan Rong are stationed in order to defend the 'people's territory' in the inner region and not be disturbed by the barbarians of Liyi. As long as there are not too many enemies, with the strength of Yijon Fort, it is more than enough to protect itself"

Just the walled cities in the land under the jurisdiction of the Iron Furnace Fort, there are no less than dozens of ancient Yi Zhi Dao, and the population gathering areas established by the local clan lords themselves are larger than the Iron Furnace Fort, but they were not included in the urban system at all

Gu Yi opened his mouth and stammered, co-authoring what he often said丨Zhongrong County丨Nine Mansions, Eighty-one Cities, Seven Hundred and Twenty-nine Forts or something, referring to all the garrison military regions?
