Holding back the excitement in his heart, Xiao Chen regained his composure and began to carefully examine the usefulness of the system.

Opening the system panel and taking a look at it immediately made him feel at ease.

The system, as its name suggests, the [Empire Rising] system, allows him to build a powerful empire from scratch.

[Rise of the Empire].

Town center: village level (lower level township level).

Buildable buildings: farmland, farmhouse, barracks, tailor’s shop, blacksmith shop, dockyard (special building).

Recruits: peasants, crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers, spearmen

Unlock technology: 10 forged steel, hemp rope, cloth, 10-ton fishing boat.

Population: 0 (5 farmers not taken out).

Upgrade requirements: The system has a population of more than 1,000 and owns a town.

The whole system is very similar to a game played by Xiao Chen. Recruit farmers, build buildings, train troops, then expand territory, obtain resources, expand territory, and finally build a huge empire.

Of course, because it appears in reality, there are some details that are not the same.

But these, for Xiao Chen, are all small problems.

After figuring out the system, he was quickly able to get started and enter the state of familiarity with the road.

Open their buildings one by one.

Farmland: Three harvests a year, planting grain crops, each season per mu can get 500 catties.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen was a little unsure.

Regardless of the terrain season, the system farmland can be harvested three times a year, and each mu can obtain 500 catties of grain per season.

You know, in today’s era, even good paddy fields are only more than three hundred catties per mu per season.

The farmland of this era, if the output is averaged, is more than two hundred catties per mu.

Basically, a family that needs ten acres of farmland to barely feed a family can go bankrupt in minutes if it suffers a disaster.

The so-called relying on the sky to eat, that’s it.

The system farmland alone is a function against the sky!

Three seasons a year, 1,500 catties of grain can be obtained per mu.

Such grain output means that one mu of systematic farmland can feed a young and middle-aged laborer.

What is the battle for hegemony?

In essence, the fight is for more territory and feed more people.

Only on the premise of feeding a larger population can we vigorously develop military power.

Even in the later generations of developed productive forces, a strong country, food is still indispensable.

With less labor, feed more people.

Only in this way can a large number of people develop industry.

The most core competitiveness often seems very simple and inconspicuous.

Just by seeming, the inconspicuous system farmland made Xiao Chen feel that hegemony could be expected!

Not to mention….

The farmhouse is the building for conscripting peasants, the blacksmith shop is the building for conscripting blacksmiths, the tailor’s shop is the building for conscripting tailors, the barracks is the building for conscripting troops, and the dockyard is the building for conscripting shipwrights.

The systematic population of peasants, blacksmiths, tailors, shipbuilders, and arms consumes food.

The peasants need one thousand catties of grain, and the blacksmiths, tailors, shipbuilders, and other technical arms need three thousand catties of grain.

Five thousand lancers and eight thousand sword and shield soldiers.

The most expensive is the crossbowmen, which cost 10,000.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen deeply realized that food would become his most important resource in the future.

The personnel of the recruitment system need food, and the same feed for these populations requires daily consumption.

The importance of food, no resource can replace it!

Of course, we must also rejoice, fortunately, the recruitment of system personnel and various branches of the army consumes food, not gold and silver jewelry.

Food is a renewable resource that can be grown when it is exhausted.

But if there are gold and silver jewelry, then even if he scavenges out the gold and silver jewelry of the entire world, he will not be able to recruit many system populations and troops.

From this point of view, the system is quite adaptable to local conditions.

This system is good, worry-free, not much trouble!

After having a comprehensive understanding of the system, Xiao Chen already had a development idea in his heart.

That is to develop their own power as quickly as possible.

When it reached a certain level, he directly led his army up Liangshan, took Liangshan, and controlled the eight hundred li of Liangshan waters.

Now is the stage when Liangshan ushered in a big explosion of strength.

It is also an important moment for the rapid transformation from the Liangshan thief to the Liangshan army.

What Xiao Chen has to do is to compete with Liangshan for time, race against time to strengthen himself, and take Liangshan’s strength before it breaks out!

If not, I am afraid that he will not even have the opportunity to gain a foothold in Liangshanbo.

How can the good men of Liangshan, who have transformed into the Liangshan Army, tolerate a force developing and growing on their own territory!?

I am afraid that in the first place, it will be nipped in the bud.

And Xiao Chen didn’t want to give up Liangshanbo, the place where he started.

Not to mention eight hundred miles of Liangshanpo, how many rich resources it has.

Just to say that the hundreds of thousands or even millions of people in the waters of Liangshan that cannot survive, that is a huge and incomparable human resource.

If he is given a period of time to digest these tens of millions of people, then the Liangshan Army he leads will not be as simple as the Water Margin.

This wave of demographic dividend, he Xiaochen must eat it!

For him, Liangshan at this time was like Cao Cao entering Qingzhou in the past and receiving the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army.

This is the beginning of hegemony!

“Place the town center!”

Getting up and looking around, on the island-like hills, there was only a thatched hut that leaked everywhere, Xiao Chen did not dislike it, and directly placed the town center on the thatched house.

The next moment, the space rippled, and the town center merged into the thatched hut, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, I saw that the thatched hut quickly became larger.

It became a house with a courtyard wall and three large green brick houses.

It is like the residence of the old wealth of the landlord in the countryside.

Appearing in this Liangshan Po, it is extremely abrupt.

Xiao Chen didn’t care, anyway, there was no one around, and no one could see it.

By the time someone finds out, he is strong enough to shut up anyone who sees it.

The town center was successfully placed, and Xiao Chen immediately walked in and extracted the five system farmers gifted by the system.

The space twisted and rippled again, and five system farmers quietly appeared.

“Master!”

As soon as the five peasants appeared, they immediately knelt down to Xiao Chen and saluted, their voices were humble.

“This is a farmer?!”

Looking at the five in front of him, although they were dressed simply, they were all about one meter seven or eight meters tall, and the clearly visible tendon flesh on their bodies.

This figure….

The Great Song Forbidden Army is not comparable to it, right?!

Just to be a farmer, that’s a waste….

This made Xiao Chen’s eyes light up, and he thought that the system farmers were as thin and weak as those hungry refugees who were affected by the disaster.

Who knows, all of them are actually strong men.

In this case….

It is completely possible to use the system peasant and act as a soldier!

Loyal to himself, and not afraid of death, once armed, a little training, what kind of Great Song Forbidden Army, also have to break abruptly!

“Call me Lord!”

“Bow to me in the future and kneel down on one knee!”

Xiao Chen immediately reminded.

He didn’t want to be the world’s largest slave owner, and besides, kneeling down would be insulting.

These system personnel are all their own loyalists!

If you want to complete your hegemony in this world, you have to be really reliable with these system personnel.

“Yes, Master!”

When the five peasants heard this, they quietly withdrew one foot, their eyes became agile, and their voices became loud.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen also firmed his thoughts.

Who said that a system farmer must be used as a farmer?!
