On the way back, Zhang Chengcheng's future cooperation with Yin Wentai had a detailed consultation, such as the academy teachers and music palace teachers who are urgently needed in the territory, and Yin Wentai will give priority to recruitment after he returns. It is not difficult to find this kind of talent in the country of Daliang, where culture and entertainment have developed to a considerable height, and it is unrealistic to want those famous teachers to come all the way to teach in the little-known Jiaolong Village, but it is not difficult to invite some ordinary teachers with high salaries.

After the details are discussed, there is nothing to do, there is a naked relationship of interests between the two, and after the issue of interests is discussed, the two of them have been chatting awkwardly for a while, and they will do their own things. This trip to Jiaolong Village is a trip for Yin Wentai, and Zhang Cheng is going to appease the new talents, and then they need to shine for the territory.

……

"Are you finally back?"

The fighting ship docked from the dock, Zhang Cheng looked at the building boat fighting ship docked on the side, this is the fleet of Qin Liangyu's cruisers, from the hull of the ship, there is no trace of a big battle, that is to say, there is still no result?

The haze in Zhang Cheng's heart is a little heavier, the dragon in the lake is a time bomb for him and the territory, as long as this problem is not solved for a day, he must be heavily defended in the territory, which is undoubtedly a huge constraint on the development of the territory.

Things like forming caravans and developing the resources of the Canglin Mountains on multiple fronts are difficult to carry out.

And if that Jiaolong really got the advantage of the environment, then its strength would continue to improve over time, which made Zhang Cheng have a bad feeling of passively waiting for death.

Winter Winter ......

Just as Zhang Cheng and his entourage got off the boat, the sound of war drums mixed with the sound of vast horns resounded throughout Jiaolong Village.

"Brother, it seems that your territory is not stable." Yin Wentai glanced at Zhang Cheng, who was obviously stunned for a moment, and he was born in the army, so he could naturally distinguish what was the sound of training and what was the sound of combat.

"In this mountain, how can there be any peace?" Zhang Cheng was not half worried about this, Qin Liangyu had already returned, and he couldn't think of anything in the Canglin Mountains that could attack Jiaolong Village.

"I have only three hundred guards in my hands......

"You don't need Brother Yin to make a move, it's just a small trouble, before the city wall is built, there will always be animals with unclear minds to send them to death."

"It was better to do so." Yin Wentai is now immersed in the dream of making a fortune, and he doesn't want to be stillborn at the beginning of the plan.

"Since Brother Yin is worried, let's go and have a look." This is an opportunity to demonstrate the military power of the territory, and now that the two sides have decided to cooperate, it is very necessary to give enough confidence to the allies.

If you want allies to invest boldly, at least let them be sure that their investment will not be easily wasted!

"It's fine." Yin Wentai nodded and did not refuse, the most important indicator to measure the potential of the lord of the expeditionary force is military strength, as long as he has a strong military force, then everything else is simple.

"Then let's go and have a look." Jia Daoxuan shook off the dust in his hand and said leisurely.

"With the Taoist chief in charge, it is even more foolproof." Zhang Cheng is in a good mood, and Jia Daoxuan's attitude is undoubtedly a signal of willingness to convince him.

When he was on the ship before, he had already communicated with a group of Taoist priests with great righteousness, and promised to rebuild the Taoist temple for them in Jiaolong Village, and the scale would be expanded, and at least 1,000 people would be arranged to join the Taoist temple in the first batch, and all kinds of materials would be given priority.

They have been branded as criminals, and the Great Liang Kingdom will definitely not be able to go back, and it is difficult to survive without a backer in this inaccessible and chaotic place.

At that time, Jia Daoxuan only said that he would consider it carefully, and did not nod at the first time. Now it seems that the old Taoist priest still recognizes the reality, but he just wants to drag it out.

As for why they were deceived in the first place, Zhang Cheng also inquired from some big-mouthed little Taoist priests. Jia Daoxuan has fallen into a bottleneck in the Dao, and the same is true of the [Fu Zheng], and the great master who goes further, the general opportunity will not be able to cross that threshold at all, so the old Taoist priest plans to find another way, and he will focus on the skill of [Refining Corpses and Raising Ghosts], which is not commonly used by Taoist priests.

[Refining Corpses] and [Raising Ghosts] are two methods!

in the overall ring

In a country where the situation tends to be peaceful, where did he get so many high-quality corpses for him to try, and the laws of the nine countries strictly prohibit Taoist priests from refining corpses privately, although the effect of this decree is not very good, but at least it is like this on the surface. Therefore, Jia Daoxuan could only be forced to choose [Raising Ghosts].

However, the threshold of [Raising Ghosts] is far higher than that of [Refining Corpses], and it is necessary to use the means of [Feng Shui], which is quite troublesome anyway.

At this time, a salesman who claimed to be a killing sect and believed in the god of death came to the door, Jia Daoxuan wanted to use the authority of the god of death to raise ghosts, so he agreed, anyway, they only need to carry out some sacrificial activities, which is not a big deal. But who would have thought that in less than two months, one of the dens of this Killing Sect was taken over by the Great Liang State, and the people there actually confessed their Taoist temple, this is really ......

Sacrificing to the evil gods, it must have been involved in cult activities, but it was not long, and it did not cause any harm, coupled with the old Taoist priest's fellow Taoist relations to mediate from it, it was only at the most critical moment that they were prevented from burning the Taoist temple and the army of jade, and finally ended up being demoted to a criminal result.

How to say it, this old Taoist priest is indeed too naïve, and such a thing as sacrificing to an evil god will actually be caught. Even if it is the nobles of the Nine Kingdoms, there are many people who do this kind of thing in private, even if the king knows it in his heart, but what if it is clear, is there any evidence?

The current nine-nation regime is a product of stability, and power is far from being centralized, and more often than not, it is compromise.

The others were temporarily placed by officials, and Zhang Cheng rushed to the southwest of the battle with Yin Wentai and Jia Daoxuan.

A strange wolf with a bewitching big red flower on his head, and a wild boar like a chariot with thorny armor on his body, this is the enemy who attacked Jiaolong Village this time.

"These beasts look like they're all influenced by weird plants." The first thing Yin Wentai saw was that the army of Jiaolong Village was slaughtering strange wolves and wild boars in an orderly manner.

Those strange wolves and wild boars were much stronger than normal, but they had no power to resist under the soldiers of the army, and the strict military formation alone made him look particularly comfortable.

Red wolf and thorn pig, Zhang Cheng is familiar with these two things, the number of wolves and wild boars in the mountains and forests is already large, and there are many parasitic natures, and the probability of encountering them is higher.

The speed of the red wolf is at least two percent higher than that of ordinary wild wolves, and the key is the flower on their heads, which will release a poisonous gas that makes flesh and blood life weak and weak, colorless and tasteless, if you don't know the roots, it is easy to be hit. Even if it has a certain resistance to toxins, it will be weakened to a certain extent due to weakness and weakness, which is equivalent to further amplifying the speed of the red flower wolf, and it is likely that it will not be able to react when attacked.

Compared with the red wolf, the thorn pig is even more powerful, the wild boar is already strong, the defense is high, plus a layer of thorn armor, it runs like a charging hedgehog, and it is difficult for conventional troops to deal with.

And this parasitism is not a simple 1+1, the beast itself will produce a certain mutation, which will be greatly strengthened in appearance and some attributes.

The size of those thorn pigs is a bit exaggerated, they are almost catching up with the elephants, their impact is too strong, the thorns on their bodies are as hard as steel, and the heavy infantry can't stop them at all. It's a pity that they confronted Yan Guo, who led the military guards, and the scene was quite bloody.

"A mutant parasitized by plants, its combat effectiveness is really good." Zhang Cheng replied somewhat absentmindedly, his gaze falling on the giant tree in the center of the battlefield that was constantly waving its branches.

Dryads? It's a rare thing.

This is Qin Liangyu's harvest from this tour of the lake?

With a height of more than ten zhang, it is difficult for five or six people to hug the tree circumference, coupled with the fact that it is in a state of "rooting", which is not something that the thorn pig can shake at all.

There was still a man sitting on the branch of the dryad, too far away to see who it was.

"It's me who underestimated the strength of my brother's territory, and this general under your command is quite extraordinary." Yin Wentai glanced at the location of Shuai Qi, although this step did not raise the strength of the army, but just from the command and dispatch, he could see the depth, which was a height that he would never reach.

"Big Brother Yin should be relieved now, right?" Zhang Cheng said with a smile.

"Don't worry! Rest assured!"

"Lao Dao, let's go and help, too." Jia Daoxuan, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, shot out a wind resistance talisman to further strengthen the wind control dao method, and the breeze supported his body and rose into the air.

If you want to develop the Taoist temple, you want to get more support in all aspects, how can you do it if you don't perform well!

When Zhang Cheng and the others arrived, the battle here was nearing the end, and this wave of parasitic creatures was coming, which provided him with a lot of points.

At the end of the war, he actually captured a few red wolves and thorn pigs, which is impossible to do normally, after all, they have limited intelligence and are aggressive, which surprised him very much.

However, when Zhang Cheng stepped forward and saw Yi Daoyun mixed in the army, he suddenly realized.

"It's her!"

She was the one who sat on the dryad before!

This beast taming genius who was originally recommended by Xue Zhong has successfully completed the domestication of crocodiles, and [Domestication] and [Animal Husbandry] have both reached the master's level, coupled with her talent [Whispering of the Heart], there is indeed a certain chance that she can appease the Red Flower Wolf and the Thorn Pig, but it is not so easy to complete the domestication.

"Brother Lord, this is the Green Man, my mount, how is it, majestic, right?"

"I don't know if there are many treemen like Green Weng in the Canglin Mountain Range, if there are many, I want to form a treeman cavalry, it must be huge!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng, Yan Guo immediately rushed over, sharing joy with him, or showing off, and kept saying a lot of things.

Treant Cavalry!?

Zhang Cheng was completely defeated by Yan Guo's brain hole, is riding on a tree a cavalry?

He couldn't see the significance of the combination of Terran soldiers and dryads at all, what was the meaning of the knight's existence? Pendant? There is no gain in combat power, and in the heat of battle, being able to sit firmly on the tree is already the limit.

It's almost the same as a feather people, and a tree spirit with twenty or thirty feathered people can also exert good combat power, and it can also play a certain complementary role. But if you really want to talk about the combination, it is best to use the special troops of the plant system, but the plant class is too rare to see, and it is even more difficult to see the mountains and seas such as Yumin and Jiaoren.

Moreover, the Dryad is an elite template and cannot be used to form troops.

[Name]: Green Weng

[Race]: Dryad

[Racial Talent]: Grass and Tree Growth - Accelerates the growth of plants or themselves.

[Title]: Child of Nature - Nature Affinity +100, Grass and Tree Ability Enhancement Effect +50%, as long as the taproot damage does not exceed 75%, it can quickly repair its own damage through "Rooting", and the flame resistance is +25%.

First-class generals - +25% combat power, -25% damage taken, and -75% physical consumption in battle. All Warrior Perk Effect is +25%, and the Charge Attack Effect is +25% on the Enemy's Morale Strike, which can be used to exert [Might] to suppress the combat power of enemies within a certain range.

[Talent]: Heart of the Earth - +100% recovery in the "Rooted" state, and gain "Immovable as a Mountain" status and +25% strength. (Immovable as a Mountain: +25% Tenacity, +25% Water, Fire, Wind and Thunder Resistance)

[Command]: 0 [Brawn]: 91 [Intelligence]: 0 [Politics]: 0

[Perk]: Tenacity - +25% toughness of self, +25% resistance to slashing, piercing, and crushing.

[Life Skill]: Grandmaster of the Shepherd

Dryads are natural plant commanders, and although they often fail to improve their [Command] attributes, they can give plants great strength just by relying on the skills of the race's gifted [Grass and Tree Breeding], the titled [Children of Nature] and [Tree Shepherds].

And each dryad is equivalent to a flexible line of defense on the battlefield, once "rooted", as long as the attack does not exceed their recovery limit, no amount of more is meaningless. This green man is even more typical, the talent of [Heart of Earth] is enough to make most opponents want to vomit, and what is even more disgusting is that this talent is still in the bonus range of [Son of Nature], 50% additional enhancement, which is quite exaggerated.

Moreover, even if it is dismantled into pieces, as long as more than 25% of the taproot is retained, it can be slowly restored, which can be regarded as a certain degree of immortality.

Of course, if you

You have to have teammates to cooperate, otherwise there is no point in meat, a live target can be easily burned to ashes.

In the case of the herdsman, this is equivalent to a mutant farmer, but there are not as many subdivisions as the farmer, and it is more focused on accelerating the growth of plants and guiding them to the next level. As for the Grandmaster, it's all about racial superiority.

For the lord, every dryad spirit is a treasure, and just farming the land is a huge profit, and going to the battlefield is a complete waste.

"I think it's more realistic for you to form the Boar Knights, this giant, I promise!" Zhang Cheng pointed to the five thorn pigs that were gradually becoming quiet under Yi Daoyun's comfort.

He definitely didn't fool Yan Guo at this point, just think about the performance of these thorn pigs in the previous war, and they don't have high requirements for terrain.

"Don't! It's so ugly, I'm sure I'll be laughed at when I go out." Yan Guo looked ugly and refused.

Zhang Cheng didn't say much, this matter has not been skimmed yet, if you want to form a thorn pig cavalry, you first have to wait for Yi Daoyun to domesticate it, and the thorn area on the thorn pig is too large, there is no room for knights to ride, and it has to be improved, and finally the problem of breeding has to be considered, otherwise the replenishment will drive the legion commander crazy.

Dryad confiscation first!
