There is a way that the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved.

What is bothering Wang Tong now is the problem of money and food, but he didn't expect Qian Tai to bring back such good news.

"yes, that's good." Wang Tong's face was full of joy, patted Qian Tai's shoulder and smiled, "Tell me quickly, what is going on in Heyang County, and how much food there is." ”

Deng Ce also looked over, as a marching Sima, he was in charge of various military resources, and he was also very concerned about the matter of money and food, and his eyes lit up after hearing Qian Tai's words.

"Jie Shuai, here's the thing......" Qian Tai organized the language and told what he said and heard in Heyang County one by one,

One of the most critical pieces of information is the price of 300 wen and one stone, and the supply of food that can be said to be unlimited, as long as you go to any grain store with money, you can buy grain at this price.

Moreover, before escaping from Heyang County, he also quietly went to Changping to investigate, and the food that was full of almost overflowing food made him feel an incomparable shock, and he still remembers it vividly.

"In this world, there is still such a thing." Deng Ce was amazed and said, "The price of grain of three hundred wen and one stone, even if it is a bumper harvest year in the thirty-year prospect sect of Zhongxing, it has never been so cheap." ”

"Well, it's incredible." Wang Tong nodded and sighed, "Before serving as Zhaoyang Jiedu, I was in the household department and learned about the grain prices in various places in Daqi over the years.

"The land in the seven states of Huaixi is quite fertile, and there is rarely a sudden reduction in grain production, and people have no harvest, but in the past 100 years, the cheapest grain price has been more than 400 yuan."

"Congratulations!" Deng Ce bowed his hand and said happily, "If this is the case, as long as our army takes Heyang County, we can restore the military strength of its heyday, and even recruit more soldiers!" ”

"That's right." Wang Tong nodded and smiled, "Hahaha, as long as the problem of money and food can be solved, Pingzhou and Tongzhou are not enough for our army, and the land of the five counties in these two states will be in my pocket!"

"Qian Tai, you have made a great contribution this time, after you take Heyang County, I will release you to Tangshi County to be the county magistrate, it is a good place to keep your mouth full of oil."

"Thank you, Jieshuai!" Qian Tai immediately saluted and thanked him.

Tangshi County is a county in Yinzhou, with a large population and developed economy and trade.

"Get up, the army doesn't do this." Wang Tong waved his hand and asked again, "By the way, I heard you just say that the reason why there is so much grain in Heyang County is because of a mysterious person surnamed Lu, do you know what he is about?" ”

"My subordinates don't know much about this person." Qian Tai stood up, shook his head and said, "Actually, the people in Heyang County know very little about him, this person seems to have appeared out of thin air, and his first public appearance was to punish the local clans who raised prices.

At that time, Fang Qian should have been imprisoned by him, and he showed up later to save people. In recent days, due to rumors of witch relics, many people have poured into Heyang County, and some people have been injured by them.

"While this mysterious man surnamed Lu was treating these people, he also began to kill on a large scale, killing five eighth levels and four seventh levels in one day, without giving the major forces any face, and the people in Heyang County were so frightened that they fled one after another."

"Oh? It's so murderous. Wang Tong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile, "This person has an appetite for me, and it sounds like a benevolent and righteous person, who does not hesitate to offend the great forces for the sake of the people, if he is willing to come under my command, I will give him a thorn history." ”

"If the marshal wants to recover this person, I have a way." Deng Ce smiled, "Just tell him that if he is obedient, he will not be slaughtered after the city is broken, and he will not allow the soldiers to loot, with the style he is showing now, he should agree." ”

"Well, that's a way to do it." Wang Tong nodded and said, "And now that the alliance between Pingzhou and Tongzhou has been completed, our army should not waste troops in Heyang County, and we can't spoil the overall situation in order to vent our anger for me." ”

"Fang Qian is dead now, and Heyang County basically obeys this person's orders." Qian Tai also said: "As long as he returns to the commander, the entire Heyang County will be self-defeating, and there is no need to spend any troops." ”

"That's what I said." Wang Tong said with a smile, "But if you want him to submit sincerely, it is most convenient to negotiate when the soldiers are in the city, and you must first let him know the strength of our army." ”

"That's right." Deng Ce nodded and said, "The festival commander can come to the city in person, this person can easily kill the martial artists of the eighth level, most of them already have the strength of the ninth level, and they may not be willing to submit easily."

"If the marshal is present, he will be under more pressure, and he should be submitted faster, so that we can concentrate more quickly to deal with the coalition forces in Pingzhou and Tongzhou."

"I'll go and persuade him myself." Wang Tong nodded and said, "This is also a strange person, and it is worth my extra effort." Deng Ce, you should prepare for the march by mid-July. ”

"Yes!" Deng Ce arched his hand and said, "I will live up to the trust of the marshal!" ”

……

In a barren mountain outside Heyang County.

Lu Heng didn't know that he and Heyang County had been taken into the bag by Wang Tong and others.

At this time, he had just killed a boss monster and was checking the list of rewards in the game "Cultivating Immortals".

The expression was a little tangled.

[Kill the boss monster "Red Flame Ray".] Experience +84, Flame Bone +9, Flame Blood +9, Flame Claw +4, Flame Brain +1, Flame Whip +1, Inner Dan +1, Backpack Slot +20, Red Fire Orb (Special Drop) +1, Sun Stick (Special Drop) +1

……

[Neidan: first-order top grade. The demon cultivation is the essence of condensation, and the fire attribute inner pill containing the red flame evil qi can be used as an amplification spiritual object for alchemy or refining tools after the evil qi is removed. It is one of the auxiliary materials for refining the foundation of the next product. 】

[Red Fire Bead: A first-order medium-grade spiritual object. Wearing it on the body can increase the power of fire-attribute spells by three percent, and it can also be used as the main material for refining fire-attribute magic weapons. 】

[Sun Stick: A first-order medium-grade magic weapon.

It is engraved with the prohibition of the size of Ruyi, the upper can be one zhang thick and ten zhang high, and the lower can be one inch long and thin like a hair. 】

[Heavenly Spirit Qi Induction Pill: First-order upper grade. An elixir that assists immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period to increase their mana. It can be connected to the aura of heaven and earth and greatly increase mana. If you take it at a lower level, you will waste some of your medicinal power. 】

After this period of hard work, Lu Heng has already upgraded the game level to level 4.

The previous level 3 reward was a set of formations.

Although that set of formation diagrams was very powerful, it took a lot of time and a lot of resources to refine the array flag.

It's a bit of a chicken for him now.

This time, the level 4 rewards are finally being used.

As long as he took the Heavenly Spirit Qi Extraction Pill, he could directly make the mana of the third layer of Qi refining reach perfection.

and then transferred to "The Secret of Immortality".

But the problem is that the elixir rewarded this time is a bit too advanced.

The first-order high-grade elixir is estimated to have a great effect on the realm of the seventh or eighth layer of qi refining.

If I take it now, how much waste will it cause?

This is what Lu Heng is struggling with now.

Is it to take this pill now, and first improve the strength of the realm?

Or do you accumulate mana step by step and take it when you break through to the fourth layer of qi refining?
