There is suddenly a hint of coldness in Youzhou in September.

The blue sky is like an endless blue sea, the river city is like a painting, and the mountains are clear at dawn.

The city of Youzhou Prefecture was continuously deepened and reinforced.

Since Cao Su served as General Pingbei and settled in Youzhou Prefecture, repairing the city wall has become a fixed project of Youzhou Prefecture.

Every day, a large number of civilians are repairing and strengthening the walls around Youzhou Prefecture.

In the northwest of Youzhou Prefecture, there are some high mountains.

Among them, the Yangjia Mountains and the Tuxian Mountains are the two most prominent mountain ranges.

The two mountain ranges have different directions, but there are many connections.

Among them, Tuxian Mountain has a more open terrain, and there are many fertile fields in the mountains.

On this day, the city wall of Youzhou Prefecture was undergoing daily repairs, and a large number of people came from Tuxian Mountain in a mighty manner.

This group of troops was none other than the soldiers led by Li Li and Wu Ming.

The soldiers and soldiers had been reclaiming wasteland in Tuxian Mountain a few months ago, and now it was time to change their defenses. According to Cao Su's request, Li Li personally took charge of the change of defenses this time.

Li Li looked at the huge city wall in surprise.

Compared with when he left a few months ago, the walls of Youzhou Mansion are now a bit taller.

It made him feel a little unfamiliar.

Li Li walked through the lengthy city gate passage. The general guarding the city at the gate was a centurion from the Pingbei Army.

The centurion's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he looked at the people coming in and out with vigilance and seriousness.

"Meet General Li."

When the centurion saw Li Li, he bowed slightly.

Li Li nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Passing through the city gate of Youzhou Mansion is the lively main street.

After Cao Su took charge of Youzhou Prefecture, many roads in the city were adjusted. Among them, the houses on both sides of the main street were planned to be demolished, and the streets of Youzhou Prefecture were re-widened.

Youzhou Mansion underwent drastic renovations, and the labor costs came from the major families in the city.

Cao Su promised the major families to build infrastructure, and then gave part of the gifts to the major families.

For example, regarding the rent collection and sales of shops along the street, as long as you are a family in Youzhou Prefecture, you will enjoy certain conveniences and can operate this matter at a lower price.

As for the manpower for reconstruction, it mainly comes from people from various villages in Tuxian Mountain.

The construction site of Youzhou Mansion was in full swing, and Li Li stared at it all in stunned silence.

This all came from Cao Su's vigorous promotion, and everyone unconsciously formed a community of interests around Cao Su.

Li Li rode on a tall horse and walked slowly, feeling the changes in Youzhou Mansion.

Not long after, he arrived at General Pingbei's Mansion.

In front of the general's mansion, Li Li dismounted and walked, handing the reins to the accompanying soldiers.

Extensive construction was going on outside the mansion, but it was very quiet inside. The entire General Pingbei mansion was no different from what it was before Li Li left.

After crossing the scenery of the front yard with pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, Li Li walked into the main hall of the General's Mansion.

In the main hall, Cao Su happened to be discussing military affairs with Luo Yi and Zhang Ke.

What day is it today, and the three generals under my command gathered together?

Cao Su's team is getting bigger and bigger, and masters from all walks of life are emerging one after another, but Li Li, Luo Yi, and Zhang Ke have always followed Cao Su and are still Cao Su's most trusted right-hand men.

When Cao Su saw Li Li arriving, he smiled and called Li Li to come.

At the same time, he stretched out his hand to disperse the other soldiers in the main hall.

Only three people, Li Li, Luo Yi and Zhang Ke, were left.

"General."

Li Li hadn't seen Cao Su for a long time, so he quickly bowed his hands in salute.

Cao Su smiled and said: "No need to be polite, just take a seat quickly."

The three of them sat in front of Cao Su, looking serious.

"Is everything okay in Tuxian Mountain?"

Li Li nodded and said: "The soldiers are full of energy, and there is indeed a lot to be done in hoarding troops. In the past few months, we have reclaimed and planted a lot of wasteland. The land in Tuxian Mountain is now full of crops."

Cao Su was short of food, so it was a helpless move to hoard troops in Tuxian Mountain.

Hearing Li Li say yes, Cao Su nodded and felt relieved.

His heart moved, and he asked again: "Every village in Tuxian Mountain is doing well, and no trouble has occurred, right?"

"Nothing happened. The residents in these villages are farmers in the fields and hunters in the mountains. They are all good at running and shooting. They are a good source of soldiers. If the general recruits troops in the spring next year, he can take in the villagers in these villages.

"

Li Li gave Cao Su advice by the way, and Cao Su also accepted the good advice and agreed with a smile.

He looked at the other two people. Zhang Ke smiled and cursed at Li Li: "Li Li, you went to the mountains to hoard soldiers for a few days, and your temper has become much calmer?"

Zhang Ke's speech was not serious and he always made fun of him. Li Li immediately rolled his eyes: "I have always been very calm."

"Okay, let's talk about the greetings later. Now I'm here to tell you something."

Cao Su interrupted Zhang Ke's words, and his state of reaching the third level was unconsciously rising.

Several people noticed the changes in Cao Su, and suddenly they felt like a big mountain was pressing down in front of them, making it difficult to breathe.

Now these three people are all at the peak of the seventh level of the force realm, and they have been trapped at the peak of the seventh level of the force realm for a long time. They can be considered as half-stepping into the middle level of the force realm, but they still feel strong pressure.

"You three can now be considered senior generals in our army."

"But you have also seen that there are many masters in the army now, like Ma Chao next to me. Although he is young, he has reached the fifth level of strength realm."

"The military is a place where strength is important. The three of you are not very young, so you have a great chance to reach a higher level."

It turned out to be about the level of martial arts of the three people.

Li Li and the other three were immediately embarrassed. They were also very anxious about this issue.

Especially when Hong Ding joined Cao Su's camp, the two brothers of Hong Ding were both at the fourth level of the strength realm, which caused some slight doubts about the combat power of the three of them in the army. Only Cao Su's support allowed them to

The position is stable.

However, going from the seventh level of the Strength Realm to the sixth level of the Strength Realm is a qualitative leap, and it cannot be achieved just by thinking about it.

The three of them were considered geniuses in Pingcheng, and now they are even more eager to break through to the middle level of the strength realm.

"General, we all understand."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Ke was extremely embarrassed and expressed his stance to Cao Su.

Cao Su nodded: "Of course I know you all understand. The three of you have been following me for so long, and I have no doubts about your abilities."

"But, this martial arts breakthrough cannot be achieved just by thinking about it."

"It depends on chance and luck. Talent and luck are indispensable."

"Talent is your own, what you lack is just some luck."

Cao Su brainwashed the three men under his command and said some words.

After listening to it, several people looked thoughtful.

"General, we have thought of many ways, but we are really only one step away from the middle level of strength realm, but we can't kick it away no matter what." Li Li also confessed his difficulties in a deep voice. He can't even dream about it now.

Breaking through to the middle level, but unfortunately it seems that just like what Cao Su said, there is just a little bit of luck missing.

The three of them felt the same way and were somewhat depressed.

"I have a way to help you break through to the middle level of strength realm."

Cao Su looked at the three of them with dull eyes.

The three of them were all shocked, and even Luo Yi, who had always been serious about his words, had a ray of light in his eyes.

Martial arts training depends entirely on oneself. I have never heard of anyone helping others to achieve breakthroughs.

If this were said by other people, they would just sneer at it.

But since these words came from Cao Su's mouth, they had no doubts.

The three of them looked at Cao Su with hopeful eyes, full of longing.

Cao Su took out three small bottles and gave them to the three of them respectively.

"This is........"

Zhang Ke opened the cork of the small bottle and smelled a faint smell of blood inside.

He squinted and looked inside, seeing a red pill inside.
