Two months later.

Southern Wilderness, Yingtian City.

Zhao Cheng stood on top of the high city tower, but in the open space outside the city, hundreds of thousands of troops were displayed.

In three years, the army under his command has swelled to 600,000, which is still the result of thousands of elections, if it is good or bad, his army can directly exceed 2 million.

It's not that the people of the Southern Wilderness, they don't know the danger of fighting, but they really give people the perception that the Heavenly Army is invincible, when they first leveled the Southern Wilderness, this has proved that the danger is not great at all, and then, if you join the army, the benefits are too great, one person joins the army, and the whole family will benefit.

In this case, many families with many children, even if the children are unwilling, the elders of the family want to stuff the children into the army.

But now, Ying Tianjun is different from the Haoqiang outside, the outside is forcibly catching strong men, and Ying Tianjun wants to squeeze in, but if you don't have any ability, you can't squeeze in.

And these 600,000 are just regular troops, in the current system of the Southern Wilderness, in addition to the regular army, there are also militias, and the militia does not need to go to the battlefield, but is used to protect the safety of the place.

Of course, the militia usually also works and farms, but there are additional merits, as well as more training, and every month on weekdays, there are one or two days to be on duty.

But if there is a real shortage of soldiers who have guns and have been trained, these people can be sent directly to the battlefield without more training.

As for the number of militias, the Southern Wilderness has now reached an astonishing two million!

You must know that the total population of the Southern Wilderness is only more than 10 million, but the number of soldiers is close to 3 million, and such a structure is very unreasonable.

And this is not the limit, under the militia, the ordinary people in the Southern Wilderness now, as long as they are not old, weak and disabled, will also participate in training regularly, and they have touched guns and guns, and these people are at least four or five million.

If this is not a strong army, then there will be no strong army in this world.

On the city tower, Zhao Cheng is wearing a dragon robe, the whole person, giving people a jade texture, clear and clear, but such a temperament and look, but it does not give people a feeling of weakness and deception, the wide dragon robe makes his figure appear more and more majestic and tall, like a giant.

Three years ago, he had attained the primordial personhood, and his transformation had already begun, and although he was confined by the earth, this transformation was very slow, but it was going on all the time.

After all, he had already condensed the characteristics of Da Luo, and to a certain extent, broke the confinement of the earth.

And the integration of the five great immortals' lifelong practice, all the wisdom, and the origin of the person, plus the past three years, the Southern Wilderness's offerings, his own practice, his Taoist body, the Taoist method, has reached a situation that ordinary people can't think of.

At this moment, behind Zhao Cheng, standing is the civil and military forces in the court, three years have passed, some people behind him are still old faces, such as Lin Yi, Wei Ye, Li Tonghai ......, but more are still newcomers, and they are selected talents in the past three years.

The southern wilderness is mountainous, and there are many hermits, and at the beginning, these hermits, at the same time, are shocked by the new country, but they feel that it is against the norm, and they must die quickly.

However, the subsequent changes in the Southern Wilderness made a small number of people with lofty ideals change their minds.

Not to mention anything else, a single point, let the people under his rule eat all the people, this is already an achievement that the ancient Holy Emperor has not been able to complete.

As for the Taoist people in the world, they are denounced as demons.

But all those who have insight, who does not know that Taoists are ruthless and unrighteous.

The so-called demons are probably different ways.

Therefore, in the past three years, Zhao Cheng has also gained a lot of talents.

These people are proficient in internal affairs, flexible in thinking, and have a strong ability to accept new things, which can be said to have solved a lot of troubles for Zhao Cheng.

On the city tower, Zhao Cheng waved his hand, and immediately the war drums were beating, and on the head of the city, the big flag was rolling.

At the same time, the 600,000 troops under the city also called together at this moment:

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

“……”

……

All of a sudden, the sound of shouting shook the heavens and the earth, and the whole giant city seemed to be shaking with it.

And with the Hohe, the soldiers are becoming more and more excited, and the military spirit is also constantly condensed.

Liu Guangzheng suspected that Zhao Cheng had used the ideological steel seal, in fact, he was not wronged Zhao Cheng, he is now the lord of the Southern Wilderness, and he is supported by the qi of all beings in the Southern Wilderness, and the invisible causal connection is to make his demon dye also escape towards all living beings.

In the present, this magic dye is filtered by him, and its effect cannot directly brainwash a person, but a subtle person, making people identify with him, identify with his ideas, identify with his ideas, and identify with everything about him.

Of course, if he does something that makes those who are affected feel painful and disgusted, this kind of identification will naturally be invalid, but if he does something that itself makes people feel right and good, this kind of subtlety is very terrifying.

In just three or four years, the Southern Wilderness is the return of all sentient beings to their hearts, and all sourcing beings are of the same heart.

The only effect of demon dye is to save him a lot of time, if there is no such effect, it is like cooking a small fresh in governing a big country, you have to take it step by step, three or four years of time, it is not enough at all.

And now, the situation in the world is unpredictable, Liu Guangzheng feels that if it continues to drag, the advantage lies in Zhao Cheng, but Zhao Cheng knows that if it drags on for a long time, the other party will have more advantages.

The potential limit of the Southern Wilderness is already here, and the population cannot be conjured out of thin air after all.

As for letting the old and weak women and children fight and consume, although he has been infected by demons, and the deeper his demonic nature becomes, he still has his own insistence in his heart, that he controls the demonic nature, not the demonic nature.

The changes that Demon Dye brought to him were just a little more ferocious when he killed people, treated enemies more cruelly, and liked to say a few "words of the strong".

It looks crazy, but it doesn't degenerate into madness.

"Pass my military orders!

"All the army, go on the march!"

On the city tower, Zhao Cheng gave an order, and immediately, the trajectory of the shaking banner and the stirring drum directly changed.

And the army displayed below also began to swell slowly at this time.

Behind Zhao Cheng, hundreds of officials and civil and military, looking at the majestic figure, listening to the movement, were all excited, especially the group of people who followed Zhao Cheng at the earliest, from the desperate situation of having nothing, to now being called Wang Nanhuang, with millions of soldiers, and want to enter the world.

Along the way, the great cause finally saw the dawn of achievement!

As for the time of this expedition, it is two months, and most of the plank road has been repaired, and the remaining part can be completed in a month at most, and this point in time is just right for the army, from Yingtian City to Tianjieguan, in terms of time, it is just right.

However, half a month later, when the army was halfway through, a small part of the men and horses directly reversed direction and plunged into the mountains and forests.

The so-called Ming Xiu plank road dark Chen Cang, this kind of thing has actually been used by predecessors, but the situation at that time was that no one paid attention to Shudi, which made people succeed in one fell swoop.

And the Southern Wilderness, now there are countless eyes staring, and the Heavenly Absolute Pass has been strictly guarded, with nearly a million troops stationed.

Zhao Cheng wanted to use the plank road to make the enemy careless, but it was impossible to do it.

Moreover, as early as a few dynasties ago, the emperor at that time let the Taoists, with Taoism, draw a perfect map of the mountains, all the details are vivid, even if it is a geological change, it is absolutely impossible, out of thin air to conjure a passage out.
