Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 258 One Hundred Thousand Army
"Meet the envoy!" Xu Xuan and Zhang Fei stepped forward to salute, followed by the officials of Longshu County, and dozens of warrior masters in armor.These warriors are the school captains and generals in the army, each of them has strong muscles and bones, and their muscles and skin glow with a faint golden light.

They were ordinary soldiers in the past, and they emerged in the battle against the mountain man, so they obtained the Golden Bell Cover, a kung fu technique bestowed by Gao Cheng. Up to now, most of them have the strength of the third level and above, and there are a few talents An outstanding warrior has acquired a more advanced technique and reached the fifth level of strength training.

Gao Cheng has always rewarded the soldiers under his command for their meritorious service, and rewarded them with cultivation techniques, giving these ordinary soldiers a chance to change their destiny, so the morale of the entire Lujiang army was firmly controlled by Gao Cheng.

The warriors following Xu Xuan and Zhang Fei showed great respect when they saw Gao Cheng. Judging from their expressions, even if Gao Cheng gave the order to die at this time, they would do it without hesitation.

Gao Cheng glanced at everyone, smiled, and said, "You don't need to be too polite, this time I'm coming to Longshu to inspect the army, Yide, you lead the way ahead, let's go to the barracks first!"

"Please!" Xu Xuan and Zhang Fei turned around and mounted their horses to lead the way.

Longshu Day Camp is located at the foot of a large mountain in the west. This mountain is a branch of the Dabie Mountains extending into Longshu. In the past, the mountain barbarians often descended from here to loot.

However, after Gao Cheng led his elite troops to defeat hundreds of thousands of mountain barbarians a few years ago, these barbarians learned a lesson and did not dare to plunder on a large scale. They could only send some barbarians sporadically to collect food, grass and various iron tools at the foot of the mountain. supplies.

"My lord, the Longshu camp now has a hundred thousand soldiers, each of whom is trained regularly and has seen blood. In addition to the hundred thousand regular soldiers, if we encounter a big battle, we can still fight from the tens of thousands." Among the [-] barbarians to garrison the fields, recruit [-] soldiers to garrison the fields..." Xu Xuan followed Gao Cheng on a horse, and introduced the situation of the Longshu Camp in a low voice.

After hearing this, Xi Zhi on the side couldn't help nodding his head slightly, his eyes fell on Gao Cheng, and he thought to himself: "My lord's internal affairs and military strategy are quite extraordinary, but it has some of the demeanor of the ancestor Guangwu back then. , not only can resettle the people, but also quickly accumulate food and grass! Now, in just a few years, there are millions of grains and grass in the Lujiang River, and countless money and food have been saved! Once the world is in chaos, the Lujiang River will be dispatched, and Yangzhou will soon be unified!"

When Emperor Xuan of the former Han Dynasty was in power, the famous general Zhao Chongguo used to farm in the Western Regions, which reduced a lot of military expenses, money, food and corvee labor, and also gave the people under his rule a certain amount of training, improving their ability to resist enemy attacks.Countless in one fell swoop.

However, the first requirement for farming is that there must be a large amount of wasteland that can be reclaimed. Zhao Chongguo was able to successfully farm in the Western Regions because the Western Regions were sparsely populated. If they were placed in the Central Plains, all fertile land would be owned by the owner.As for Lujiang, Gao Cheng obtained a large amount of land after purging the Linhu Zhang family and frightening many wealthy families in the county.This is the basis for the implementation of the farming strategy.

After several years in Linhu and Longshu, Gao Cheng not only had 20 infantry, but also a 15 navy, occupying large areas of water in Chaohu and Pengze respectively, and his power has increased dozens of times compared to before.It really has the power to unify Yangzhou.

Gao Cheng was riding a horse, listening to Xu Xuan's introduction, he was very satisfied.After planting fields for several years, he finally has the capital to explode soldiers. When the world is in chaos and countless princes lack food and grass, he has a lot of food and grass in his hands, which is a huge advantage!
Whoooo!The dull sound of the horn sounded, and Gao Cheng and the others came to the barracks. With the sound of the horn of gathering soldiers, countless soldiers in armor poured out of the tents and formed an army formation outside the camp gate in an orderly manner.

"Sword and shield hand, spearman, archer..."

Gao Cheng looked, and saw that the one hundred thousand troops were quickly arranged neatly according to the types of arms. When the three horns were about to stop, the one hundred thousand troops had already assembled. This speed of assembly made Gao Cheng and Xi Zhicai Heart shaking.

Gao Cheng hadn't come to Longshu since the last time he defeated the mountain man. He didn't expect that Zhang Fei and Xu Xuan could train the soldiers to such an extent after such a long time. It's really unbelievable!
"Baojian and Yide, you have worked so hard! You have made great contributions to Lujiang!" Gao Cheng sighed.

Zhang Fei said hehe: "I'm so proud of you, Mr. Zhang doesn't have the ability to train soldiers like this. It's all thanks to Captain Chen's assistance to train these soldiers to this level!"

Gao Cheng frowned, showing a hint of surprise, and said, "Captain Chen? Who is this?"

Xu Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I am about to recommend this talented person for my lord. At the beginning, my lord defeated the army of the mountain barbarians, and then Jiang Gongyi sent tens of thousands of refugees. I recruited some soldiers from among the refugees to guard the captives of the mountain barbarians. Promulgated, after the mountain barbarian captives are resettled, these soldiers will be organized into county soldiers."

"Among these people, there are some fierce soldiers with outstanding aptitude who dare to fight and kill. One of them is not only powerful, but also quickly practiced the skills rewarded by the lord. He is also able to read and write, and has a good military training ability!"

"Thanks to this person's assistance, General Zhang and I were able to train [-] soldiers into fierce soldiers, and blocked the mountain barbarians on the mountain, so that we dare not go down the mountain to plunder again!"

Gao Cheng was a little curious. According to Xu Xuan, this man has extraordinary strength and the ability to train soldiers. This is the appearance of a famous general!He quickly asked Xu Xuan to call someone over.

Soon, a young man in iron armor came striding forward. Gao Cheng glanced at him and was startled.The man in front of him has a deep aura and a heroic appearance. He is the first extraordinary general he met after he came to this world, Chen Dao and Chen Shuzhi.

"Meet the envoy, General Zhang, and county magistrate Xu!" Chen Dao saluted respectfully with a calm expression.

Gao Cheng laughed, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab him by the shoulder, "Lieutenant Chen, it's been a long time. During the last Yellow Turban Rebellion, I met you a few times in Yingchuan, but I always wanted to get to know you. I didn’t have a chance, I didn’t expect that we would see each other here today, what a fate!”

While speaking, Gao Cheng secretly patted a tiny amount of real energy on Chen Dao's shoulder. There was his spiritual power in the real energy, and he immediately sensed Chen Dao's true strength.

"Gang Qi is unparalleled, full of spirituality, and ever-changing. This is a different phase of the peak of the sixth level of refining Gang! It is only half a step away from stepping into the seventh level of virtual phase!"

Gao Cheng's heart fluctuated, and his expression became more eager, as if he met a good friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
