The soldiers came to the city, and the gates of the city were wide open. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Li Rong rode out of the fortress, followed by Zhang Kaiyu and a group of guards.

"The last general will see Marshal Li!" In the army opposite, a vanguard general wearing heavy armor with a tall head suddenly turned over and dismounted, and saluted Li Rongxing.

"Excuse me, dare to ask which soldier you are?" asked Li Rong.

The general replied: "The last general and his entourage are under the command of General Qian, and they have come here to help Marshal Li on the orders of the general. ”

Li Rong nodded secretly, this Qian Sen not only keeps his promises, but also has some means in dealing with people, you must know that this vanguard general is the most expensive and difficult to tame among many arms, Li Rong didn't dare to ask for it, but Qian Sen asked for it, and he got him.

Awesome, really awesome!

"General Qian has a heart, come, all the soldiers will follow me into the city!" Li Rong said with a smile.

Subsequently, the militia lined up, the guards opened the way, and Li Rong greeted the army sent by Chansen with a solemn ceremony.

Although the soldiers in the army are all fake characters evolved from the battlefield, they also have a sense of honor and disgrace, and Li Rong greets them in this way, which will make them feel valued, and they don't have to worry about being discriminated against and suppressed by the local soldiers and the new leader when they come to a strange place.

After removing the 500 meters of militia, 20 doctors, and 50 sappers to maintain the normal order of the city and assist in agricultural production, as well as the loss of the last beast tide and the siege of the small village, Chanson sent all the remaining troops.

With the addition of nearly 6,000 troops, Li Rong felt a sense of relief.

The solemn ceremony and high-profile gesture of entering the city were not only a sign of respect for Chanson and the soldiers sent by Chanson, but also a show off and demonstration.

A moment ago, he was still worried about the affairs of the people and merchants, worried about what chaos would happen during the beast tide, but now that he has left, the problem will be much smaller, after all, there are six thousand more troops in the fortress, which is a very powerful force, enough to make people feel at ease.

When the people's hearts are stable, the probability of trouble will be small, and the effect of fanning the flames on the businessman's side will be much reduced.

And seeing that there are so many more troops, the businessman may not continue to fight against Li Rong. It is true that the merchant has a special position in the fortress, but if there is a fortress that is more powerful than the rest and never has to worry about the beast tide, then the merchant is also the favorite.

After all, every time before and after the beast tide, the merchant has to throw out a large number of goods, and if he can't sell it at the original price, he can only sell it cheaply, or even sell it half and give it away, and then run away with the money.

But not necessarily now, with such a powerful army, the safety of the fortress is a little more guaranteed, and the merchants don't have to worry about the fortress being breached by the beast tide, and they can make a lot of money safely and steadily.

The world is full of profits, especially businessmen, as long as there are enough interests in front of them, the father killer can also become a cooperative partner.

Taking a step back, even if the common people and merchants still insist on fighting against Li Rong, Li Rong is not afraid, Qian Sen sent people over, which means that his plan is half successful, the protective ring of the three major fortresses has been successfully constructed, the villages and villages inside are no longer threatened by the beast tide, and Qian Sen and they have begun to develop agriculture with all their strength according to the agreement.

If agriculture keeps up, there will be no shortage of food in the short term, and if there is no shortage of food, Li Rong will be able to launch his own expedition plan!

The purpose of the expedition is to eliminate the surrounding hostile and neutral forces, make distant allies, and build a new territory of power.

Long-distance friendship and close attack, this is Li Rong's plan.

In Li Rong's view, there is no need for neutral forces around the three major fortresses, there is only the difference between friendly and enemy forces, and if you don't accept it, you will fight, there is nothing to say.

In addition, he wants to show his strength to other candidates in this way, let them join his side, and then trade with his base to supplement domestic demand.

With more than four months left before the battlefield closes, the scale of the beast tide will grow larger and larger each time, and the war consumption will also increase exponentially, at that time, all the items exchanged from the merchants will become scarce, the merchants will become scorching, and the insatiable merchants will demand more privileges from the candidates as a result.

Li Rong would never allow a privileged merchant to appear in his forest land, let alone allow a merchant who held the lifeblood of the armament to exist, so trade was imperative.

And the basis of all this is an unparalleled strong force and a short-term reserve of abundant logistics.

Therefore, the addition of this group of troops was a timely rain for Li Rong, not only relieved him of his urgent need and freed him from his shackles, but also gave him a sharp blade to fight back, he wanted to knock these arrogant merchants to the ground and take away all the privileges they held.

Along the way, the doors were closed, but there were always a few pairs of eyes in the doors and windows observing the new troops through the cracks.

The common people don't understand war, but the mood is also very uplifted to see so many soldiers joining the fortress before the beast tide comes, and the more troops in the fortress, the safer they are, as for the food shortage...... As long as the beast tide can't break through the city, the problem of food can always be solved.

The merchants also saw Li Rong's demonstrations, and they thought more than the common people, in addition to the benefits that the stability of the fortress could bring to them, they also saw Li Rong's warning to them - since I can find soldiers from other places, then I can also find new merchants from other places.

Of course, in fact, Li Rong did not think of this, this is just the businessmen's own brain supplement, this kind of brain supplement makes them feel panic, once Li Rong introduces new businessmen, their profits will be thin, not to mention, they may also lose some due privileges.

With a sense of crisis in their hearts, the merchants gathered again, only this time, they did not bring the restaurant owner who had been arguing with the Marshal's Mansion at the beginning.

"As you have seen, Marshal Li can bring in soldiers from other places, and he will certainly be able to bring in merchants, and if he does so, our position will be replaced. ”

"So what? if he really draws the other merchants against us, then we'll close the shops and go somewhere else. ”

"Are you stupid pig? I doubt how you can do business with such a brain. We want to stuff merchants, to put it bluntly, it is to make money from the fortress, this place is remote, the road is difficult to walk, and it is not very peaceful, so we can earn a high price difference, now the fortress has gained a strong force, security is no longer a problem, this means that our business can be more stable, save the big sale before and after the beast tide, how much more can we earn, you still want to go?"

"Are we going to be threatened by him? This is an insult to the dignity of the merchants we want to stop!"

"Dignity? How much is a pound? Save it! Our current privileges and fame and fortune are all because of our status as merchants in the fortress, we have left here, we have no privileges, we have no high price difference, what do you think is the difference between you and ordinary merchants? Go to a safe place to grab food from those cunning competitors? Are you sure you won't lose all your underwear?"

After saying this, the merchants suddenly fell silent. Only then did they realize that the pride of the merchants of their fortress was so vulnerable. (To be continued.) )
