Although Chen Kai completed the initial deterrence against these militias, which is the first step to establish his authority, there is still a long way to go to completely command these unruly militias. First of all, the command of these militias is the problem of the command of these militias. They are not players who can let Chen Kai directly pass commands through the private chat channel.

Even if Chen Kai can use the help of the system to pass on some short commands, few commands will eventually take effect because there are no next-level commanders. So what Chen Kai needs to do now is to select some lower-level commanders and completely unify the entire militia.

This process seems very simple, but it is actually very difficult. Because these militias come from various places and are basically not familiar with each other. So let alone recommending each other, there is no way to recommend a person who can serve as a centurion. If one hundred of these militias come from the same place, then maybe one centurion can be easily elected. But at most, there are only fifty people from the same place, and they are still veterans from the Zera Fortress. Therefore, it is not realistic to recommend them by relying on mutual understanding. In the end, Chen Kai could only use the help of the system to select the most powerful physical attributes among all militias as commanders.

This method is the stupidest method, because strong physical attributes do not mean that they are a good commander, but when fighting, the strong physical attributes are often proportional to combat power. There is nothing more capable of controlling soldiers than powerful combat power in a unit, so Chen Kai's choice method cannot be said to be problematic, but the general direction is still correct.

But sometimes a strong individual combat ability does not mean that the individual command ability is high. You should know that some people are naturally very powerful in combat but they do not have any emotional intelligence and cannot get along well with their subordinates. Of course, some people only know how to charge in battle and ignore Chen Kai's orders. This situation will only be exposed in battle. Therefore, Chen Kai can only pray that he has chosen the right choice. Of course, he does not choose the commander entirely based on his physical attributes, because before that, he did a job, which is to name a name.

After getting the list of these militias from the commander of this military camp, Chen Kai began to group according to the places they came, and then confirmed them one by one and said a few words to them. Of course, this process was very long and took Chen Kai a whole day. At the same time, Chen Kai also used the system viewing mode to check the attribute status of these militias at this time. Of course, this attribute status is only rough, and only the lord can view it. As for why it is rough, because Chen Kai cannot see the hidden attributes of these soldiers such as potential, personality, etc., and can only see basic attributes such as strength and agility. Chen Kai took screenshots and recorded the content of the conversation to Xu Fei and the others. With their help, Chen Kai barely completed everyone's inquiry before nine o'clock in the evening, and picked out several candidates who acted as centurion from it.

The questions Chen Kai asked are basically the same. First, ask what your name is and then check it on the roster. Then ask if xx is your fellow countryman? Or what do you think xxx is like. Such a question is very simple, but it can roughly determine the reputation of some people in the team. If more than a dozen people think that one person is better, it proves that this person is still a bit prestigious. Then Chen Kai will put a star on the name of this person as the candidate for the captain or centurion. As for the candidate for the commander above, Chen Kai will let all the soldiers choose it through battle. So at present, the commander in Chen Kai's militia is temporarily lacking. Because this position is really important, it is basically one-third of the strength of the commander Chen Kai's army.

In fact, Chen Kai hoped that Zhao Tiezhu, Su Wan and Su Xinghe would be the three positions, but he was worried that all the militia would rebound. Therefore, he could only tell them very clearly that these three commands would be selected through legal duels, and Zhao Tiezhu and Su Wan would also participate in the duel. However, Su Xinghe is still on the way to the imperial capital and has no way to participate, so Chen Kai could only choose to delay the time of choosing a thousand men.

However, the delay cannot be too long. He must complete the selection of all officers a week before the end of this month. Because after that, they will set out to the territory. According to Prime Minister Capello's words, the territory will be completed within a month, and at that time Chen Kai must run to take over his territory. If he did not take over, his territory would probably be peeped at by the lords of the surrounding territory and invaded.

Therefore, Chen Kai must complete the reorganization of all teams within this week, and then arrive at his territory within a week. Of course, he can use a short-distance teleportation array on the previous journey, so that the time can be reduced slightly, and Chen Kai needs to pay about 30,000 gold coins for this. Of course, this is limited to the expenses of these militias, not including the families of those militias. Those families can come slowly after Chen Kai and his friends are completely in control of the territory. Although Chen Kai needs to pay an additional 100,000 gold coins for this, it is more cost-effective than transporting them to the militias together.

Therefore, Chen Kai had to prepare a lot of things during this week. In addition to training with these soldiers, he also had to prepare food on the way and various accommodation supplies after arriving at the territory. Of course, these would not be purchased in the imperial capital, but people would buy them in cities near Hugodi. Of course, the best place to purchase is definitely Altinis, which is closest to Chenkai's territory. However, the trade routes in the Great Rift Valley were not easy to walk. Due to the monster attacks, the trade routes in the Great Rift Valley have always been intermittent. This led to a large amount of goods being accumulated in Altinis, and the prices of goods in the southern part of the city south of Altinis were extremely low. However, after Altinis, the prices soared. Similarly, in the areas north of Hugodi, the commodities in the north were relatively low, but some commodities in the south were extremely high. Because the trade routes were cut off, various materials were not smooth, which naturally caused the market supply and demand imbalance.

The most important thing is that the Golden Plain, the most important grain-producing area of ​​the empire, was destroyed in the tide of ghouls, which led to the Hansting Empire becoming more dependent on the food in the southern region, and the consequence of the trade routes was that there was a grain shortage in the empire. Although the food shortage was not very serious at present, at most, some areas with not enough grain output themselves had some short-term food shortages, which could be rescued by emergency allocation within the empire. But at present, it is very serious that it takes at least three or four years to restore grain production in the region that was ravaged by ghouls. If it was one or two years, the empire's grain inventory could still hold on, but if the time was extended to more than three years, the food supply in the empire would have problems.

So no matter what, the trade route to the north of Altinis, that is, the Great Rift Valley, must be stabilized as soon as possible. In fact, even if Chen Kai becomes the lord of the new town of Berkner, he will only have one year to stabilize the surrounding situation and must completely open up the trade route within one year. If Chen Kai cannot do it, then the position of this lord will be replaced. This is why the count asked him if he would fight when he first saw Chen Kai. Of course, in the eyes of that count, whether he would fight would not matter, as long as he could make money, it would be enough. If Chen Kai could provide him with tens of millions of gold coins, then the princes and counts around him might personally help Chen Kai destroy those who were asking Chen Kai for trouble.

Unfortunately, Chen Kai didn't know about these. He didn't know that he was actually sitting in a powder barrel or an extremely dangerous position. If he couldn't settle the territory within one year and then open up the trade route to Altinis. However, Chen Kai still has an advantage, at least he has more gold coins than those ordinary lords. He also received a lot of support. The most important thing is that he is a player, and the players will not be killed by assassination. In fact, not all lords hope that the trade route is smooth, because only the trade route is not smooth.

Only then can we hoard goods and get more profits. The Earl of Anfros actually had this idea, but the Hans Court, the Earl of their family, naturally could not have ruined his family in order to make more money. But some nobles did not think so, because the empire was ruined and ignored their affairs, and some lords even wanted the entire empire to completely collapse and return to the city-state society. No noble lord hoped that there would be an emperor above his head. They all hoped that they would become the well-deserved emperor in their territory.

But emperors are not so easy to be, so those lords turn their goal of becoming emperors into making more money to satisfy their luxurious life. Therefore, not everyone hopes that the trade routes from Altinis to the central and northern regions of the empire will be smooth. If it were not for this reason, it would be much faster to dig a tunnel directly through the Great Rift than to wind in the Rift. However, digging a trade route will cause many merchants to lose the opportunity to make big money, which will cause the price of goods to plummet, which will damage the interests of some nobles. Therefore, this excellent method has never been mentioned and no one will realize it.

It can be said that if Chen Kai knew the situation he would face, he would not have trained the militia so happily, but instead tried hard to think about how to get the money back and find a place to be a rich man. Chen Kai, who did not understand these things at all, could not know about the aristocratic battles in the game, and even his teacher Bass would not know about these things. Even Chen Kai's senior brother Anderson probably would not know them. In fact, this kind of thing has basically involved the struggle between some super aristocrats in the Hansting Empire, and it is not something that the middle and lower-level little nobles can know. Of course, there is a bottom line between the super aristocrats, that is, they will not directly deal with those who are regarded as chess pieces, and they will only manipulate the chess pieces to fight against them in the established rules. If Chen Kai can gain a foothold in this state, then those super aristocrats will abide by his lord's interests in this place, so they will not do things that will directly kill Chen Kai.

Of course, before Chen Kai completely gained a foothold, the nobles around him who were controlled by these super nobles could take action against Chen Kai within the rules, and even use assassination to eliminate Chen Kai from the ** at some point. However, Chen Kai is a player, so the ** assassination is just to let him down. After three hours, he will still wander in the territory alive. This also makes the super nobles who know the identity of Lord Chen Kai cannot use the **-*-destroying method to make Chen Kai disappear. They can only use other methods to hinder the development of his territory.

However, what made those super nobles angry was Chen Kai's financial resources. They had no idea that Chen Kai was a freak that emerged from that corner. They actually used tens of millions of gold coins to let Prime Minister Capello use the Imperial Infrastructure Mage Group to build territory. At the same time, under the hint of Earl Anfros, Prime Minister Capello basically made up his efforts to help Chen Kai build territory, and the materials he used were basically exceeding the standard. In fact, the gold coins actually consumed in Chen Kai's territory were worth more than 15 million gold coins, but some things were not calculated with gold coins, so after the conversion, the gold coins that Prime Minister Capello spent on Chen Kai's territory was less than 12 million.

The reason for this situation is very simple, that is, the rules and restrictions between the super nobles in the empire. Prime Minister Capello can use the Imperial Land Construction Mage Group to help Chen Kai, but the help is limited, that is, Chen Kai can only do as much as he pays. If this limit is exceeded, it means that the people supported by Count Anfros have exceeded the rules. Those great nobles have reason to attack Chen Kai.

Of course, in fact, the Earl has exceeded the rules in many places, but this is the privilege of the royal family of the Hansting Empire. However, on the surface, it is necessary to maintain a certain state of compliance with rules and regulations, so those soldiers can only be identified as militias, and at the same time, the number cannot be too large. The most important thing is that they cannot master the fighting spirit. If Earl Anfros directly calls out a team of ten thousand people who master the fighting spirit to Chen Kai, these great nobles will probably jump out.

But now Chen Kai has only more than 3,500 militias under his command, and they are all soldiers who do not have the fighting spirit. Such soldiers did not make the great nobles jump and accuse the count of breaking the rules. But even so, if Chen Kai cannot reach his territory before the end of this month, those great nobles will have excuses to deal with the territory belonging to Chen Kai. For example, sending a team of people to act as robbers to occupy them very much. At that time, the owner of Chen Kai's territory would definitely be impeached for being unable to protect his territory. In fact, they can also interfere with Chen Kai on the road, such as making Chen Kai unable to use the teleportation array to teleport soldiers or something. But everyone knows that this method can only be considered a wrong way. Not to mention what the closing of the teleportation array means, if those great nobles really do so, it would probably be almost the same as foul.

Su Xinghe finally arrived at the imperial capital on the third day after Chen Kai became famous. Of course, there were thousands of players who came with him. In addition to some of his friends and old friends, there were also some contacts from Xue Haifeng, and even Huang Dao and others brought their classmates and alumni here. Of course, the ones brought were those who were reliable, not those who were brainless. Because Chen Kai said that he wanted to take advantage of the situation, or just those who came to make soy sauce, he refused, and would rather spend money to hire the indigenous people.

Mercenaries don’t want to be like a person who may fail. Therefore, the students brought by Huang Dao and the others are basically honest or ambitious. Those who like to take advantage of small things or are just lazy are basically not among the ranks of their invitations, and even took the initiative to come to the door and were rejected by their polite words. Of course, because of this, Huang Dao and the others can be said to have offended many of their classmates, but when they think about what they get after following Chen Kai and the others, they still think it is worth it.

For the sake of some second-generation ancestors, they put their friends and bosses in the game in a difficult situation. Huang Dao and others knew how to make a choice. Naturally, they rejected those second-generation ancestors and chose their bosses. After all, Chen Kai gave them a good salary, and the income in the game basically guarantees that they can live a well-off life for several years after graduation.

"Boss! Long time no see!" The person who spoke was Hulans. After Chen Kai and the others were teleported to get Hedira, Hulans followed Su Xinghe. Although he lost Chen Kai, and for a while, the group had low profits at the beginning and even often paid money. However, after the last battle of the ruins, they worked in time and began their career as hunters of dark forces players. They changed to rob those players who joined the dark forces. As a result, they would make a small sum every time. Of course, the cost was also very high, which is why Hulans has only level 59 but has not reached level 60. The high profit is also for high risks. It is very normal to accidentally die in the battle with dark forces players, and even Su Xinghe has died several times.

"Long time no see! By the way, where did that guy from Huangdao go?" Chen Kai just beat up several militiamen who took the opportunity to find fault and saw Su Xinghe and Hulansi walking over with giant swords, and of course, there were other people.

"He! He ran to Brother Fei. I heard that he was asking him for a few spells! This guy is almost becoming a spell madman now, and he even took a piece of paper to write and draw in reality! Fortunately, he has never failed the subject, otherwise the old class would definitely cause trouble for him!" Hulans, a classmate and roommate of the zodiac, was very worried about his friend's situation. He was worried that his friend would have mental problems. Fortunately, in addition to being a little crazy about his spell research, he was still good at studying and did not go crazy when he got along, otherwise he would definitely call 120 to send the zodiac to a mental hospital for examination.

"Uh! That's it, it's better for him to pay more attention to his health!" Lao Su, you'll be fine. I'll arrange someone to fight immediately. The old man Capello has urged me several times and asked me to take the troops on the road immediately. I decided to set off immediately after the commander of the thousand-man.

However, when Chen Kai arranged for the soldiers who wanted to become commanders to prepare for the duel, he suddenly found that no one was willing to run on the ring to fight Su Wan, Zhao Tiezhu, Su Xinghe and others. Because the weapons they were holding were too strong, Chen Kai could not let them change their weapons and fight with ordinary weapons before someone could go up to fight. However, the ending was similar to what Chen Kai expected. Although these veterans were very strong, they were not the offensive method mastered by professionals after all, which was only suitable for fighting on the battlefield. As for the duel, it was too far-fetched. Although several veterans mastered several ultimate skills, this ultimate skill was not enough to match three players with similar levels but more superb methods.

If you are a player in the normal mode, it may be more difficult to fight against soldiers in the elite template, but players in the bloody mode will basically not be too difficult to deal with ordinary elites. Especially when these elites are just mastering the fighting spirit, it doesn’t take much effort to defeat them.
