【vassal village】:0/4

…

Probably because Xia Village has a high military score and was directly rated as an important military town by the system, two new military-type buildings were added.

Unexpectedly, there is an archery camp specifically recruiting professional archers, and the level is still level three.

Infantrymen trained in infantry battalions can also shoot arrows, just like infantrymen can also take boats to fight on the water, but their attributes will be reduced.

In the same way, archers can also fight in close combat, but their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of infantry.

The blueprint of the third-level archery battalion is worth at least one hundred taels of silver, and it saves construction materials and costs.

As for the secondary arsenal, it is also a practical building, reducing the damage rate of weapons, which is equivalent to saving maintenance costs.

Xia Cun's weapons and food are now placed in the same warehouse, and there will be a special arsenal in the future.

Chutian originally did not want to follow the Spartan-style militarization route, but in order to protect himself in troubled times, he had to have a relatively strong army.

"Ding! Lord, I just want to farm well and submit a territory merger request. Your territory 'Xiaozhu Village' will become a vassal village of 'Xia Town', and you will lose your qualifications as a lord. Please consider the consequences carefully before making a decision.

"

Xia Liang received Chutian's request for territorial annexation.

"accept."

"Ding! You have lost your territory 'Xiaozhu Village', please choose a new direction of growth."

"In the direction of civil servants."

Xia Liang lost his status as a lord and chose to become an internal affairs talent in the direction of a civil servant.

The one who benefited the most was Chutian, who got an intact third-level village. The development of Xiaozhu Village was unexpectedly good.

Xiaozhu Village focuses on the direction of economic development, while Xia Town focuses on military and agriculture, which can complement each other.

Although the military strength of Xiaozhu Village is not strong, its prosperity is closely behind Xia Town due to its developed economy. Especially the fact that Xia Village has C-level specialties surprised Chu Tian.

Raw silk and silk are an endless supply of gold.

The financing capabilities of banks and the purchasing capabilities of commercial banks can promote the economic development of villages and towns.

"Your Xiaozhu Village is about to be upgraded to a town. I didn't expect you to be willing to merge with our Xia Town."

Chu Tian was a little surprised.

The development of Xiaozhu Village is definitely not bad.

Xia Liang helplessly spread his hands: "No matter how prosperous the economy is, if you don't have enough force to protect yourself, you will be annexed by others. The Song Dynasty's business was developed, wouldn't you still be bullied by the Jin, Liao, Yuan, and even Xixia? You are already the largest in Xuzhou District

One of the player territories happens to be next to my village, do you think I still have a choice?"

"Ahem..."

After hearing this, Chu Tian felt that he was a big evil person who only bullied neighboring villages.

In fact, the probability of peacefully annexing other lords is low. Xiaozhu Village accepted the merger because he had no way to resist. If he faced an ambitious lord in the future, he would probably have to draw a sword or join forces.

The annexation of Xiaozhu Village has brought huge benefits. Xia Town's total prosperity has become 1025, ranking third in Xuzhou.

If the first two lords had not owned more than one vassal village, their ranking might have been higher.

The lord of Xiaozhu Village also changed, from Xia Liang to Chu Tian. At the same time, Chu Tian appointed Xia Liang as the village chief of Xiaozhu Village.

Now Chutian can directly intervene in the development of Xiaozhu Village, or give instructions on the direction of Xia Liang's development, which is a bit like appointing an army. After all, it is impossible for a lord to take care of every territory.

If you have to do everything yourself, you may end up like Zhuge Liang and die before you start.

"I'm going back to Xiaozhu Village now. Do you have any other instructions, Lord?"

Xia Liang deliberately teased.

"There are a hundred young men from Xiaozhu Village, and I want to train them all into professional soldiers."

Chutian issued orders to vassal villages for the first time.

"Lord, why do you want to explode the troops? If this continues, the economy may be dragged down."

"There is a water village ten kilometers south of Xia Town. I want to destroy that water village and attack the surrounding third-level villages. The first-level town has four vassal territory quotas, and Xiaozhu Village only occupies one quota. That is,

Said, we can also occupy three villages."

"As you command, Lord."

After Xia Liang understood Chu Tian's purpose, he expressed his support.

Other third-level villages may not be willing to surrender, and they may not be loyal if they surrender. Only by possessing strong force can the other party be convinced.

"You don't need to call me Lord Lord. After all, we were allies once. This is a privilege gained by your contribution to Xiaozhu Village."

"Okay, Lord."

"..."

Before Xia Liang returned to Xiaozhu Village, he was very interested in the economy of Xia Village. He went to the fourth-level fish market and found that the fish market that could accommodate hundreds of stalls only had a dozen fishermen from Xia Town.

"It won't work if it's just a building without publicity. I'll help you find a way to attract residents from surrounding villages and towns to come here."

When Xia Liang saw the depression in the fish market, he immediately wanted to help Xia Cun revitalize trade.

"The third-level commercial bank has the quota to establish two branches. One of the branches is already located in Langya City. I will ask the commercial bank to also open a branch in Xia Town."

"The bank also has a branch quota. Set up a branch in Xia Town to help you make money from the private sector."
