Mo said that the current monkey, even before, it was not his opponent.

As long as these monsters don't appear together, he is almost invincible!

"Yes."

Zhang Jiu nodded lightly, keeping this matter in mind, secretly wondering what kind of torture method Dad had invented in the first place.

At the beginning of the conquest of the Six Kingdoms, in order to extract confessions, Shaofu once specially found someone to study the method.

"How's the iron ore going in recent times? Are there any new developments? Yingtian picked up the wine, and after everyone touched one together, he asked casually.

Due to the disappearance of the monsters, the labor force has been greatly liberated, and the soldiers will go to mining every day in addition to exercise.

There was no way, there were no slaves, so the soldiers had to do it themselves.

Fortunately, the process of mining can also exercise strength.

"Two more ores have been found in the surrounding area, and the minister has made them mine, but these ores are many times more difficult to mine than the original iron ore or something."

Zhang Jiu pointed to the location circled by notes on the map, and said helplessly.

Now they are facing one of the most serious problems, that is, there are not enough slaves.

If there are enough slaves, he has the confidence to directly build the Great Wall to a height of 100 meters and build a city that can resist even if monsters attack the city!

"Your Majesty, according to what Alexander Yun said, some people in later generations have tried to count it, and the total population left in ancient times is probably only 100 million."

Zhang Jiu sighed and said helplessly.

It's not that there are many people who have died, but whenever he thinks that there is no slave use, he feels distressed.

Whether in the past or now, slaves have an undoubted role in the development of Shaofu, and the reason why Daqin can develop so quickly is inseparable from slaves.

"Is there only so many people? The rest of the population is too small, right? ”

Yingtian was taken aback by this number.

But after thinking about it carefully, I think this number is normal.

The most populous powers of later generations are still alive and have not been destroyed.

The total population of Xia, India, Xiong, and Lighthouse has reached almost four billion.

Everyone chatted with each other, and the heat of the hot pot was in stark contrast to the heavy snow around them.

It's a pity that no outsiders saw this scene, otherwise they would be jealous to death.

At this moment, Ying Zheng and others, and Ying Tian's life can be described as one day at a time.

in the valley.

One tent after another, standing on the ground, Ying Zheng and others, around the bonfire, eating the dried meat they carried with them.

"Your Majesty, these monsters have suddenly disappeared, and the minister suspects that a conspiracy is brewing." Zhang Han held a dagger in his hand, and carefully stared around while cutting flesh to prevent any accidents.

Since there were no traversers around, they didn't know what had happened during this time.

Before the monster came, the blue star was not big, and it could send people to find out the news, since the scope of the blue star increased, almost all the various forces have become independent individuals.

It's almost impossible to get the news as before.

The disadvantage of underdeveloped transportation in ancient times, this battle was magnified countless times.

"There should have been some kind of change that we don't know about, but none of this matters, strength is the root of everything." Ying Zheng shook his head lightly and said calmly.

Compared with the initial 200,000 troops, there are now only nearly 100,000 left.

Half of them died on the road.

However, the remaining 100,000 people, almost every soldier, has a physique of 500, of which the physique exceeds 1,000, and it has reached nearly 10,000.

And those with a physique of 2,000 have dozens of people.

Li Xin's physique was the first to break through to more than 3,000.

Compared with before, this army has undergone earth-shaking changes, and they all look resolute, as if they have walked out of the end times, just standing there gives people a great sense of oppression.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these soldiers have undergone a baptism of blood.

"Your Majesty, if you advance at the current speed, it will only take three years at most, and you should be able to rush back to Daqin." Zhang Han calculated in his heart and spoke.

This number made the people around him breathe a sigh of relief.

The previous ten years were really scary.

Three years is a long time, but it's better than ten.

"I don't know when this kind of sleeping day is the end."

Wang Ben crossed his hands behind his head and lay on the ground, full of emotion.

I couldn't help but think of Yingtian.

I don't know how the ninth prince is now, but I think about it, after the monster comes, it shouldn't be easy.

"We have a lot of people, and Jiugongzi is afraid that he is still under siege by monsters now, and if he is lucky, he will be able to eat enough, and if he is lucky, he will probably not even be able to eat."

Zhang Han saw through what he was thinking at a glance and said with emotion.

Along the way, they encountered a few inexhaustible monsters, and Yingtian and the others must have encountered a lot of monsters.

They have 200,000 people in their hands, while Yingtian only has 100,000 people.

Not to mention, Yingtian and the others have just experienced two epic battles, and all the accumulated heritage has been consumed.

"I don't know if the fourth child has arrived in Rome City, I think it should be soon."

Ying Zheng squinted his eyes, calculated the time, and said lightly.

After the monster came, he immediately ordered Yinggao to lead a group of men and horses to support Yingtian.

If it was, it must have been more than half a year, but everything can happen after the monster comes, and no one knows if there will be an accident on the road.

"Well, it would be nice to catch a traverser."

Zhang Han's eyes were full of pity.

Along the way, they also tried to go to the small cities they passed, but everywhere they went, they were all empty cities, and some of them were occupied by monsters.

You don't have to think about it to know what happened to those traversers.

After resting here for a long time, everyone remounted their war horses and rushed in the direction of Daqin.

It is worth mentioning that not only the Qin soldiers, but even these war horses, because they devoured a large amount of monster food and spiritual rice, their physique has increased significantly.

The horses galloped at a terrifying speed, like a gust of wind blowing.

If you look at the ground from the sky, you will find that the huge Qin army is like a sharp arrow, tearing a big gap in the depths of the Great Wilderness.

As time passed, Mo said that other people, even Brother Zheng, couldn't help but have doubts in their hearts, and they didn't even encounter a monster along the way.

However, this is good for them, and it can greatly increase the speed of travel.

If the monster does not appear, it will greatly shorten the time to rush back to Daqin, and it is very likely that it will arrive within two years, which is still because of the obstruction caused by the snow in winter, otherwise the speed will be faster.

If you want to say who the worst person is, it is undoubtedly Ashoka.

As usual, Ashoka stood on the deck, looking at the endless sea, his eyes filled with bitterness.

There were only 1,000 men left around him, and nearly two-thirds of them were killed at sea, and the weapons, crossbows, and arrows he carried were completely depleted.

The arrows on the dozen ships combined, there were less than a thousand left!

"Fortunately, these monsters are all gone, if there is another attack, I'm afraid it's really going to be over."

Ashoka stood up from the deck, his hands clenched on the railing, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In the past six months, they have been attacked more than a dozen times, but fortunately, the scale of the attack is not very large, and the monster that appeared more than fifty meters long before has not reappeared.

Moreover, two months ago, the monster completely disappeared and did not attack again.

"Your Excellency, the fish is ready."

A soldier with a grilled fish in his hand said respectfully.

Looking at the grilled fish handed over by the general, Ashoka's face trembled, and 10,000 grass and mud horses rushed by in his heart.

Since several ships carrying food and grass were sunk by monsters, the remaining food and grass on board was greatly reduced, so they could only feed on fish in the sea.

I've been eating fish for nearly half a year, and now I want to vomit when I see it.

Click!

Ashoka gritted his teeth and took a big bite.

"Have you seen the land, how long is it still from the island, we need to find a place to rest first, re-smelt the armor of the dead soldiers, and smelt it into arrows, otherwise we will definitely die if we encounter a monster attack again."

He resisted his stomach, and his gaze became solemn.

After more than 2,000 soldiers died in battle, the equipment was left behind, and after returning the equipment to the furnace and rebuilding, the combat power can be greatly enhanced.

That's the only way to do it today.

"Your Excellency, you don't even see an island."

The general smiled bitterly and said helplessly.

After fighting in fear at sea for so long, there was a sense of powerlessness in everyone's hearts, and the urgent need to step on the earth, and the sense of solidity brought by land was far beyond the reach of ships.

"It's strange, we've been sailing for nearly half a year, but we haven't even met an island?" Ashoka stretched out his hand and took the chart from his bosom, his eyes full of doubt.

When the Buddha first traveled to ancient times, he obtained an extremely complete map of the world through later generations, including the coordinates of many islands in the sea.

"It should be that when sailing, there was a deviation, which led to a miss, and there is often fog at sea, so it is normal to miss it, so there is no need to worry about continuing to move forward."

Ashoka glanced at the map twice and waved his hand impatiently.

I had never been to sea before, so I realized an extremely serious problem after going to sea, that is, it was useless to have nautical charts.

To tell the truth, he doesn't know where he and the others are now.

Therefore, even if the location of the island is marked on the map, it is difficult to estimate the approximate distance.

"Set sail and don't continue to waste time."

After taking a big bite of the grilled fish, Ashoka sat limply on the deck.

The only thing he was excited about was that during these days, with the hunting of monsters, his physique broke through to more than a thousand points, and the whole person was full of glory, as if he had been reborn.

"Yingtian, with the current physique of this king, he will definitely be able to suppress you with one hand, and when I return from the United States, it will be the time to kill you, and you had better live until then."

Ashoka clenched his fists, and a fierce light erupted from the depths of his eyes, making no secret of his killing intent towards Yingtian.

He couldn't forget that all this was forced by Yingtian, if it wasn't for Yingtian, why would he have left the country, and why would he not be able to return to the Peacock Dynasty.

If he had the opportunity, he would not hesitate to twist Yingtian's head with his own hands.

"And what kind of bullshit Yingzheng Yingying, you all wait for this king, don't worry, come one by one."

Ashoka pinched his finger bones and crackled, and his eyes instantly turned red.

If he could, why would he be willing to go to the United States, all this was just a helpless move.

Involuntarily, he thought of the bald general and the others again, he didn't know what happened to them now, and it was absolutely impossible to say in his heart that he didn't miss the Mauryan Dynasty at all.

"Your Excellency the King, we haven't encountered any monsters for two months, where do you think these monsters have gone?" The commander came to Ashoka's side, his face full of doubt.

It's good for them not to meet monsters, but for some reason, they are always a little relieved in their hearts.

Moreover, the absence of monsters means that you will not be able to get system rewards.

For them, who are accustomed to getting system rewards every day, they suddenly can't get them, and they feel very uncomfortable.

"I don't know."

Ashoka shook his head decisively.

After going to sea, he realized that he had overlooked a very serious problem, that is, there were no traversers by his side.

This also leads to the fact that he has almost completely cut off contact with the future generations, and after such a long time, he has no idea what happened in the future generations, let alone whether there have been some things that he does not know.

Although he didn't go to sea before, he didn't cross by his side, but in ancient times, there was only such a big place, and it was not difficult to inquire about the news.

It's different after going to sea, not to mention the traverser, you can't even see a few people, although you have this psychological preparation, but when you really face it, you still feel a little panicked in your heart.

"Sleep."

The more Ashoka thought about it, the more he had a headache, and in the end, he simply scratched his head a few times, returned to the cabin and fell asleep.

What he didn't know was that the bald general and others were not having a good time at all.

Not to mention that it is in a desperate situation, it is not much worse.

"Four million people, directly reduced to one million, more than three million people died, after going back, how to explain to the king?"

The bald general stood in front of a castle and looked at the scarred soldiers in the city, his face full of confusion.

After sending Ashoka away eight months earlier, he did not leave immediately, but stayed on the shore for more than a month, built some steam engines and ships, and then sent some men to deliver a message to Ashoka before leaving with his army.

Unexpectedly, not long after leaving, he was attacked by a group of talking stones.

These stones are very special in their attack methods, they will use themselves as weapons to smash them out, and each attack, they will hit a hundred shots, and can smash a person's head into a bowl-sized blood hole.

Who would have thought that before he could escape, he was attacked by a group of red-haired foxes, leading to another fierce battle.

In the past eight months, he has experienced no less than 20 bloody battles.

led people to rush here and built a defense line, and gradually stabilized the trend of decadence, but these battles also led to the original army of four million to become more than one million.

Bang!

The bald general's legs were weak, and he collapsed weakly on the ground.

Eight months had not been a long way to go, and now he had just arrived at the imperial city of Ptolemaic.

I can't imagine how much he will have to pay if he wants to return to the Peacock Dynasty, and even if he has a chance to go back in this life, he doesn't know.

"General, the monster hasn't appeared for two months, and the soldiers' injuries have recovered a bit, so do we need to start again?"

At this moment, a soldier approached and asked respectfully.

They had been in the dilapidated castle for almost three months.

"How many people do we have now?"

The bald general took a deep breath and struggled to get up from the ground.

In the absence of Ashoka, he must stand up and carry the banner.

If even he falls, then the Mauryan Dynasty may really be completely finished.

"Now we have 1.3 million people left, and all the soldiers have reached 300 physiques, and under the intentional creation, the number of people who have exceeded 1,000 physiques has reached more than 700."

The soldier spoke respectfully.

While paying a huge price, it is not without rewards.

Even ordinary soldiers, after eating these monsters, have a certain degree of improvement in their physique.

"In that case, let's continue our journey."

The bald general thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

After standing up, he suddenly found several other colleagues standing around, looking like they wanted to speak and stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it doesn't hurt to say anything, although the king handed over the Mauryan Dynasty to me, but everyone has worked together in the court for so many years, and there is no need to see each other."

The bald general frowned and said with a smile.

"General, we agree that it is not a good idea to return to the Mauryan Empire now, and we should return to Rome."

One of the white-bearded old men stepped forward and spoke.

As soon as the words fell, the bald general's legs were weak, and he almost collapsed directly on the ground.

I can't wait to raise my hand directly and give this old man two slaps.

In any case, he did not expect that these people would be so bold and reckless.

Who is Yingtian?

That's a god-killing existence!

Even Ashoka couldn't bargain in front of Yingtian, and he couldn't understand whether these people had eaten the gall of a monkey heart and a leopard, and they dared to take the initiative to provoke Yingtian.

He even doubted that these people should not be bought by Yingtian and become ghosts, right?

"During these days, our strength has been strengthened like never before, and we may be able to take the opportunity to kill Yingtian."

The white-bearded old man's eyes lit up and he waved his fists excitedly.

In the past eight months, they have been trying to kill Yingtian all the time, and after seeing that they have strong strength, they can no longer hold back the excitement in their hearts.

Syllable!

Without hesitation, the bald general slapped him on the head.

"If you dare to say one more word, believe it or not, I'll cut you down immediately?"

But anyone who has a head knows that it is definitely not a wise move to provoke Yingtian now.

After the battle, the strength of the Peacock Dynasty has indeed increased a lot, doubling compared to before, but are Yingtian and the others fools who don't know how to hunt monsters?

He suddenly understood Ashoka's previous helplessness, and with a group of such pig teammates under his command, anyone would have to collapse.

"But."

The white-bearded old man was directly stunned by this slap, and raised his hand with some dissatisfaction, wanting to continue to refute.

"Someone!"

The bald general frowned, and simply ordered someone to bring an iron chain, tie him up, and then throw him into the carriage.

His face sank, and he coldly swept over all the remaining people, "If anyone dares to say such idiotic things again, I don't mind tying you all up." ”
