Chapter 380 Secret Purpose
Xiao Xi: “…….”

It seemed that her previous worries were completely unnecessary.

Before issuing this order, I was worried that some people would be reluctant to let go of their children, or that there would be opposition. It turned out that there was indeed opposition, but it was basically suppressed by the rebel students.

More than 90% of parents are very happy that the Scout camp has been downgraded. They have been raided by wandering tribes all year round, and many of their lives now are unimaginable. Therefore, these people heard that the age of their children has dropped. After reaching the age of two, many parents can’t wait to send their children over, hoping that their children can learn useful life-saving knowledge.

After the winter wheat was planted here, Yan Ci also set off to return to Tianyi Kingdom.

Before he left, Yan Yi came over and said that Yan Ci was leaving, so he came to protect Xiao Xi's safety.

After hearing this, Xiao Xi smiled on the surface and didn't care, but she was already angry and laughing on the inside.

Is Yanmo afraid of what she might cause? But what does she cause in a deserted land have to do with him?
When Yan Ci returned and Yan came, Mrs. Liu was happy that Mr. Yan valued her children so much and began to dream of becoming a future imperial master. As the Chinese New Year approached, she kept nagging in Xiao Xi's ears, saying that she had the big brother behind her. It’s a good tree to enjoy the shade, and outsiders call her the Little Imperial Master, so it’s better to go back directly and listen to the words silently and peacefully become the future Imperial Master.

Xiao Xi has been supervising the construction of the city wall at the border, and finally found time to come back. What awaits her is Liu's various persuasion.

Zhang Zhong pulled Liu's clothes aside, but Liu insisted on continuing.

"Xie'er, you are not talking about you. You are saying that Tianyi is such a big country. How safe are you in the capital? Even if there is a war, you can't reach the capital. Don't you think so? If you become a national advisor, you can feel at ease. A lifetime, how wonderful.”

Sitting on the bamboo chair, Xiao Xi rolled her eyes as she listened, and asked directly: "Mom, you have been with Yan Ci for so long. You should have a better idea of ​​what he is like. If you were the national preceptor instead of my mother, Will you choose me, who is emotionally unstable and extreme, or will you choose the gentle and elegant Yan Ci to be the national master?"

Mrs. Liu didn't say anything after hearing this. After a while, she said again: "It's almost dinner time, let's eat first."

Several brothers from the Zhang family are in the child soldier camp. Today's lunch is only for Zhang Zhong, Liu Shi, and Xiao Xi. They include a few simple stir-fries and a few buttery yellow noodles just pulled out of the fire. Sweet potatoes.

Before it was served, Zhang Zhong took one to her. Xiao Xi felt the heat.
Fatherly love, he took it, peeled off the skin on one side, took a bite, and fried it again in his mouth.

Seeing her gasping for breath from being burned, Ms. Liu smiled helplessly and said nothing, only calling for the two of them to come to the table.

Wu Yi and Wu Xi taught the people in Bahuang every day, and Xiao Xi selected a few more capable people among these people, just in case the two of them left suddenly and couldn't cope with it.

She didn't expect that the original agreement could really restrict Wu Yi and Wu Xi. Whether they respect it or not depends entirely on their character. And her past experiences have made her never have hope in human nature, and she always does the worst. If you have a good plan, you won't be disappointed. If you have a backup plan, you won't be caught off guard if something unexpected happens.

Yanmo was a backup plan, and she didn't count on Wuyi Wuxi. She no longer placed all the bets on one person, so that if something happened, the whole army would be wiped out.

Now that Yan Ci is gone, she may be able to let the fox do something she wants to do.

Xiaoxi ate roasted sweet potatoes and planned for the future.

During the Chinese New Year, Bahuang's side was short of manpower. During the Chinese New Year, the whole family basically stuck to their posts. Xiaoxi returned to the inner city wall to continue supervising the construction.

Yan Ci went back and told Yanmo that Xiao Xi didn't want to come back, but he spoke the same way as Yan Yi, which made people feel very comfortable.

He only told Yanmo that Xiaoxi had taken in many homeless people during this period, and now Bahuang had many things to deal with and couldn't escape.

Yan Mo was silent for a while after hearing this, and after a while he asked Yan Ci what he thought of Xiao Xi's establishment of his own power in a deserted land.

When Yan Ci heard this proposition, his mind was racing, but after thinking carefully for a long time, he still couldn't think of a perfect answer.

"Why don't you speak?" Yanmo looked at Yan Ci.

Yan Ci pondered: "My disciple doesn't know what kind of answer Master wants, whether it is an answer based on Xiao Xi as the starting point, or an answer based on Tianyi Kingdom as the starting point."

"Let's talk about it." Yan Mo sighed and leaned on the comfortable seat to rub his temples. He always felt that his little apprentice would cause trouble for him. Moreover, Xiao Xi was his apprentice and a native of Tianyi. Now he was establishing influence outside. , does this power belong to Tianyi Kingdom or to her?
If she belongs to her, how can he deal with the Emperor of Tianyi Kingdom? After all, he is his apprentice. If there is any friction in the future...

But if she belongs to the Tianyi Kingdom, this is almost impossible. Although Zhang Jiaxi is young, she is extremely domineering and extremely passionate about power. Although he has not been with her for a short time, he is 100% sure that once she becomes a climate , will never hand over military power easily, no! It is impossible for her to hand over military power!

If Zhang Jiaxi was well-behaved, it would be okay for him to protect her for the rest of her life, but Zhang Jiaxi didn't listen to what he said, and even if she did, it would be a double act.

It's not that he didn't think about nipping this threat in the cradle and nipping the cradle of potential threats that were detrimental to Tianyi Kingdom, but... Zhang Jiaxi was kind to him.

"From the perspective of the Tianyi Kingdom, the establishment of the Eight Wastelands has both advantages and disadvantages for the Tianyi Kingdom. In the past, the border between the Tianyi Kingdom and the deserted land was harassed by wandering tribes every year. The people on the border were miserable, but Xiaoxi was in the deserted land. With the relationship between Master and Xiao Xi, as long as we don’t take the initiative to attack her, she will definitely be able to help us protect the Desolate Land, right? And this relationship is long-lasting, right?”

Yan Ci analyzed it carefully. After Yan Mo listened to Yan Ci's analysis, he closed his eyes and sighed.

There is a reason why the eldest disciple has won his heart. When the same words are spoken from Zhang Jiaxi's mouth and from Yan Ci's mouth, the people listening have two different attitudes.

In the same way, Zhang Jiaxi's words can make his mood explode. He feels that Zhang Jiaxi has a problem with him, and the problem is very big.

Yan Ci thought for a while and continued: "If we talk about the disadvantages, the junior sister is not someone who can suffer a disadvantage. She is originally from the Tianyi Kingdom. With this status..."

Yan Ci did not continue after he said this. He felt that the leader of the Tianyi Kingdom might already know about this, and others might not pay attention to it, but Xiaoxi was a disciple of the national master, so the leader should still pay attention.

If a person from your own country goes to another country to establish himself as a king, call her a traitor. She recruits people in Tianyi's third-party zone. Say she is not a traitor. She went to a deserted land to establish forces other than Tianyi Kingdom. Moreover, He felt that Xiao Xi was not the kind of person who would hand over her rights to the leader of the Tianyi Kingdom, not to mention that she had a grudge against her master, so the relationship was very complicated.

"Xiao Ci, do you think I should call her back?" Yanmo pressed his temple. He had had this idea for a long time. He wanted to call Zhang Jiaxi back from the beginning, but he remembered his little apprentice's character and his own problems. , he has been hesitant about this matter and cannot make up his mind. Yan Ci wanted to go back: I'm afraid you won't be able to call her back at all. Xiao Xi is not the kind of person who comes and leaves as soon as she is called.

But the person in front of him was his master, and the issue being discussed was his junior sister, so he couldn't say that.

"Master, I think you can let go appropriately. Xi'er's mind is not like that of a child. In addition, due to some conflicts you had with her before, I think it might be better for you to let go appropriately sometimes, which would be more beneficial to the teacher." The development of apprenticeship relationships.”

Maybe this is because the authorities are obsessed with it, but bystanders can tell.

The master has always thought of Xiao Xi, but when he was with his junior sister, she did not behave as the master described. He didn't know if it was his misunderstanding. He always felt that the junior sister had potential hostility towards the master.

Yan Mo remained silent and didn't speak. Yan Ci couldn't figure out what Yan Mo was thinking, so he had to wait silently for a reply, but he was thinking about another thing, his cultivation level was declining.

Time soon came to the end of the year and it was time for the Spring Festival. Yan Ci ended the Spring Festival as expected and left. After the ceremony, some people were curious about where the young disciple of the Imperial Master went.

Yanmo replied that she had her own things to do, and those people stopped asking.

God knows how frustrated he felt when he said this.

After the spring festival was over and Yan Ci left, the king of Tianyi Kingdom also found Yanmo and asked Zhang Jiaxi what happened.

Yanmo had no choice but to reply against his will: "The Desolate Land belongs to a no-nonsense zone, and the Youzu have frequently invaded the borders of our Tianyi Kingdom. If someone can capture the Desolate Land, it will only be good for our Tianyi Country, and there will be no harm. "

These benefits are indeed real benefits, but there is also a disadvantage that it is difficult for the young apprentice to control, but he will definitely not say it to create panic.

After hearing this, the king of Tianyi Kingdom nodded repeatedly. What Yanmo said in the eyes of the king meant that Zhang Jiaxi went to the desolate land under the instruction of the national master, because the desolate land and the land bordering Tianyi Kingdom were indeed frequently attacked. The people were harassed by wandering tribes, and the people were miserable, but the sky was high and the emperor was far away in that place. He was the emperor, and he had always been powerless towards these remote areas.

Now listening to what the Imperial Preceptor said, it seems that the stability of the desolate land has been in the Imperial Preceptor’s plan for a long time. Zhang Jiaxi’s trip to the deserted land was also regarded as a part of the Imperial Preceptor’s plan. He opened his mouth to praise him: "The Imperial Preceptor The master is truly a man of great righteousness! His strategy is so far-reaching that I am ashamed of myself.”

Then he continued to praise: "I have long heard that that little girl is extraordinary, but I didn't expect that she would be so extraordinary that the Imperial Master would value her so much."

The king of Tianyi Kingdom praised him for a while, but Yan Mo could only smile and said nothing.

After Yan Mo left, the king of Tianyi Kingdom felt that the imperial master was so considerate of Tianyi Kingdom that he even released his two young apprentices to pacify the deserted land. Such righteousness made him, the emperor, feel free to do so. Ashamed.

So in order to cooperate with the work of Yanmo's two apprentices, the king of Tianyi Kingdom was not idle. He secretly issued a secret order directly to the border with the Desolate Land, and directly informed the local city guarding officials if they approached. There are forces established in the deserted land of Tianyi Kingdom. As long as they do not take the initiative to attack Tianyi Kingdom, Tianyi Kingdom cannot take the initiative to attack. If necessary, they can join forces with their forces to fight against the invasion of Youzu.

The officials responsible for guarding here also looked at each other in confusion after receiving this secret order. Since it was a secret order, they must keep it secret, but they didn't know whether the people who established the Bahuang tribe outside had a cooperative relationship with the emperor, or whether the emperor's subordinates were secretly sent to recover the desolate area. of land.

It seems that they must be careful in everything they do in the future!
Everyone woke up to the alarm. This time, the people who came were people close to the emperor. It was better to come secretly to avoid being caught.

Yanmo knew nothing about this, and neither did Zhang Jiaxi. They only knew that the originally strict censorship of the Tianyi Kingdom had dropped a lot on its guard against Bahuang.

Of course, this matter was also discovered by the spies and reached Xiao Xi's ears, but she only paid a little attention to it and didn't take it too seriously. She only thought that there was some change in them, so that's why.

After Yan Ci returned to Bahuang, Yan Yi left in time.

Xiao Xi watched Yan Yi leave and walked away, with a sneer on her lips without anyone noticing.

In the days that followed, Bahuang continued to expand its territory and recruit troops, and its population expanded rapidly. The area also expanded rapidly.

Planting has been changed from two seasons a year to one season a year. In a deserted land, the land is large and the people are sparse. Many people can be fed by grazing and breeding. In the past, these people did not dare to herd on a large scale because they were worried about the nomads and those people. They No matter how much property there is, it will be looted, but as some forces on this land are cleared away, with the construction of roads, and the construction of inner and outer city walls, gradually, more and more people are grazing here.

Bahuang's policies continued to change as the population increased in the following years.

Because all the people are soldiers, Bahuang has never lacked human resources. From children as young as two years old to 80-year-olds, as long as they can still move, they all look forward to contributing to Bahuang.

After the population of the annexed forces increased and manpower was no longer scarce, the child soldier battalion and the male and female soldier battalion changed some policies.

The child soldier camp serves for ten years, during which time it is mainly taught some basic knowledge and self-defense martial arts.

The men's and women's camps have a service period of ten years, and additional property will be allocated to the remaining part of the Bahuang. In addition to some of the concepts that were instilled in these people before, people in the Bahuang are now proud to serve, and many of them are married. Huang will also be assigned to the nearest location, or the duty hours will be adjusted according to the couple.

Moreover, in addition to the barracks that protect the tribe, other service members in the barracks can leave as soon as the training is completed every day. The time is relaxed. They only need to replace the duty once a month and take over the work of the previous barracks. Such a relaxed policy also allows the members of the tribe to leave. Many elderly people in their 70s and 80s came to sign up not to be outdone.

Although they are old, they are not useless. They can do logistics. These money are all paid extra by the tribe.

Xiao Xi looked at the old people who were weak in legs and feet but still came to sign up with excitement. She was silent for a while, and then controlled the age of the military camp to within sixty years old, which was the maximum age she could accept.

In the following days, the inner wall of the city wall was completed, the outer wall was not stopped, and the aqueduct and moat were also built at the same time.

Five years later, the Eight Wastelands have changed greatly, and the cultivated land area has expanded.
