Chapter 291: Expansion and Decisive Battle
Li Xian's cultivation time is not long, but his accumulation is very strong, since he has advanced to the Essence Yuan Realm for more than a year, he has been cultivating diligently, and he has also fought many life-and-death battles with enemies above the second and even third orders, and his physique has reached more than six, and his spirit has been tempered to be extremely solid.
Some time ago, he also obtained the wood seed Dao species, refined to the liver acupoints, and combined with the original golden cicada, water droplets, fire lotus beads, earth dragons and other dao species or innate spiritual objects, that is, the five organs and five elements are complete, and the internal training has reached a very high level.
Later, he also used the Mixed Yuan Dao Seed he had refined by himself and the Sun Dao Seed obtained from the Jinwu clan to seal his own Qi Sea Cave, and when the time came, he could break the seal, break the chaos, and re-evolve a small world.
Originally, Li Xian would have to go through a few months of accumulation before he could try to advance, but after yesterday's fierce battle, especially after knowing that he had been deceived and entered the place of death, he instead inspired a pride in life and death, and his spirit became more complete, and he had the ability to try to advance earlier.
Today, Li Xian has been cultivating the sword technique, just waiting for the opportunity for the whole body to unite the essence and spirit, the breath to reach the extreme, and break the seal in one fell swoop, and finally succeeded in one fell swoop.
At this time, sensing himself, Li Xian felt that a new world had evolved from the Qi Sea Cave, and the difference from when he opened up the Jinghai Cave was that there was a round of red sun shining in the new world, and there was constantly golden light reflecting the chaotic air mass, accelerating the process of chaotic evolution.
As soon as Li Xian's heart moved, the essence power of the transformation of the Jing Hai Acupoint was fed into the Qi Sea Acupoint, and then after the transformation of the Sun Dao Seed, it turned into pure golden true qi, which was warm and full of masculinity.
Li Xian knew that at this point, the first step of Jiuyang Divine Skill was sold, and then the Sun Dao Seed Nirvana, after this transformation, he would be able to achieve the great achievement of Jiuyang Divine Skill, and there would be few opponents in the world.
However, the cultivation of martial arts has come to an end, and the next step is to discuss how to solve the current dilemma.
"This time I wasn't cautious enough and fell into a hole dug by someone else. After entering the tent and sitting down, Li Xian calmly admitted his mistake.
"You can't blame you for this, none of us knew there was such a problem here.
Needless to say, how to break the game is the key. Xuan Zheng shook his head and said.
"The key now is that the British have suffered a big loss, and they feel that they have lost a large amount of silver, and they will definitely attack in a hurry, and they will inevitably attack the Sanyuanguan.
I originally thought that after getting six million taels of silver, I would use this money to recruit troops and deal with the British, but now I have to deal with the British without this money.
It's as simple as that. ”
"Makes sense. Have you figured out anything to do, though?"
"Not yet, but it's just that the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. Li Xian said that he hadn't come up with a way, but there was no panic in his expression.
"So what do we do now?"
"The first step is to expand the army. Li Xian said. "Actually, a lot of people, including me, are thinking about one thing wrong, we have a head-to-head fight with the British, and the odds are actually very high. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Xuan Zheng was surprised.
"The key is that we have reinforcements, that is, the more than 30,000 farmers in Sanyuanli.
If we can train them well and equip them with the right weapons, it will be more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, which is much more than the British, and it is the British who are avoiding us, not that we cannot defeat them. ”
"But can these ordinary peasants play any role on the battlefield? Even if they do, they will have to go through more than a year of training, and we don't seem to have so much time?"
"We just figured out the right way to fight.
In any case, I hope to recruit aggressively among these peasants, at least more than 10,000 soldiers, and then start training.
In addition, I would like to call all the guards and workers stationed on Donghai Island and settle down near Sanyuanguan, which will greatly relieve the pressure on our personnel. ”
"But, in that case, what will happen to Donghai Island?" Xuan Zheng was really taken aback at this time.
"Only a few hundred people were left to watch the house, and the rest of the people just came. I used to hope to fight the British on Donghai Island, but the situation changed too quickly, and it seems that the decisive battle will have to be placed on the side of Guangzhou.
However, in this way, we need more help from the Sanyuan View side in terms of financial, material and human resources, otherwise it will be difficult for us to gain a foothold. Li Xian said sincerely.
Xuan Zheng thought about it for a while, and felt that he had no room for refusal at all, this matter was originally a crisis of the Sanyuan Sect, and the Mixed Yuan Sect gave up his family's foundation to come over to help, and the Sanyuan Concept could not refuse at all.
In fact, in terms of the current situation, the Mixed Yuan Sect withdrew its troops and stayed out of the matter, watching the Sanyuan Concept fight to the death with the British, and only came over to symbolically help when the two sides lost about the same amount to each other, and others were completely blameless.
"Well, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, cooperation can coexist, acting alone will be broken by others, we must cooperate sincerely. Xuan Zheng thought about it and said happily.
When two people reach a consensus, things are much easier.
After Xuan Zheng and Li Xian finished discussing, they came out to meet with the villagers, and as soon as they opened their mouths, they said that in order to reward the villagers for their hard work, all the villagers present, regardless of the old and young, would be rewarded with five oceans, and the rest of the people who had made meritorious contributions would be rewarded separately.
Five oceans was not a small amount for an ordinary peasant, and all the villagers immediately cheered, and their morale was high for a while.
Then, Xuan Zheng and Li Xian jointly announced that in order to deal with the retaliation of the British, more than 10,000 young and strong peasants would be recruited, and it was decided to temporarily set up a security regiment, with a monthly salary of three oceans and various allowances.
In fact, these villagers also knew that the crisis had not passed, and that the British could come back at any time to retaliate, and understood that it was necessary to establish such a military institution, and that it would be a good thing that someone was willing to give such a high salary as three oceans for this, so they were naturally very happy to sign up.
Xuan Zheng and Li Xian also announced that even if they were peasants who could not enter the security group, Sanyuanguan and Mixed Yuan Sect would also recruit people as strong men, giving them two yuan a month, and they didn't have to go to the battlefield, as long as they helped dig trenches or repair roads.
The announcement of this decision raised the excitement of the villagers by another three points.
Since the Sino-British war, the production and income of the people in the Guangzhou area have been greatly affected, and these 30,000 peasants have also suffered greatly.
Xuan Zheng and Li Xian did not waste any time, and organized the escort team and warriors on the spot to start screening the peasants, selecting the young and strong to become regular soldiers, and the poor in physique were accepted as strong men for auxiliary work.
Seeing that the villagers were still enthusiastic to join the army, Li Xian nodded secretly, with so many soldiers, this battle will be much more certain.
In fact, the population of Leizhou is not large, especially Donghai Island is a small island after all, with a population of only 30,000 or 40,000 people, Li Xian's recruitment of less than 2,000 young men as escorts in Xuwen Yaluo Bay and Donghai Island is already the limit, and it will be difficult to recruit any more, and the quality of soldiers will be reduced a lot.
This is also the main reason why Li Xian has not been short of money and weapons, and the number of teams has not been able to rise rapidly.
