Chapter 13 Development and Enemy Tracking

It was the time of Guang and August of the sixth year, and there were still four months before the Yellow Turban Rebellion. That little time was a very difficult test for most time travelers.

It is said that the Yellow Turban Rebellion is to use experience, gold coins, equipment and super dungeons of generals. However, if you are not qualified to participate, you can only eat the leftovers of others around you.

It’s rare to have the golden finger of "Empire 3". How could Liu Ming miss the opportunity to get into it personally?

Currently, his power resources are: 800 units of wood; 0 units of iron ore; 530 units of coins.

After some careful consideration, he built another 15 pieces of farmland. However, this time, he did not build it secretly, but completed this process in front of everyone's presence at the designated location.

The effect is conceivable. More than a dozen mature fields suddenly appeared on the flat ground, and almost all the villagers worshiped them directly on the spot. Then they remembered that if this was also a "kanda", according to the village chief's previous promise, wouldn't it be their turn to occupy a month in one or two months? Thinking about feeding nearly six stones of food over a year, the villagers were happy.

Soon, Liu Ming even announced that he had officially established a college in the village. Not long after he finished speaking, he hired villagers to sort out a piece of land of 300 square meters. Everyone knows that the village chief is serious.

As the land was sorted out, another white light descended, and a college rose from the ground. At that moment, even if the academy was just a wooden earthen house, it was the most sacred place in the eyes of the villagers.

"Mr. Wang, can you take on the position of priesthood?" Liu Ming came to Wang La and asked.

"I am now at the age of living a life of dying. It is rare to make some contributions to the village, so I will definitely do my best!" Wang La did not refuse. The villagers produced by their system will always be the most loyal.

After selecting the priest, Liu Ming selected four more people to serve as teachers. Of course, this place is no longer called a teacher, but is called a "researcher".

Everyone was puzzled by the so-called "researcher", so Liu Ming explained to them: "It is a craftsman who studies industry, agriculture, and military technology, and also spreads these technologies to students."

Many people immediately stopped hearing this. Not to mention that they do not have this knowledge, but also that the status of this craftsman is only higher than that of a businessman. Who would like to specialize in this?

In desperation, Liu Ming had to invite Wang La's sons and nephews to work in the academy. The Wang family naturally had no objection to Liu Ming's arrangements, and four researchers quickly took office.

Only when Liu Ming got here did he understand that at the critical moment, "his own people" were still reliable!

The academy was fully organized, and Liu Ming officially announced that anyone who wanted to learn to read could go to night school after finishing work in the afternoon. Because there were few people in the village, Wang La and his sons and nephews could still provide tutoring one by one according to their personal progress.

Some people were moved, and they were young and strong in their twenties and thirties; some people disagreed, and they were the guys who were over thirty-five and began to call themselves "old man".

However, Liu Ming's attention was not on this. He directly opened the system interface and clicked on the academy interface.

Sure enough, under the interface menu, there are five research options:

Farming (primary): Increase farmland output by 50%, consume 80 units of coins, and a 5-day research cycle.

Fishing and hunting (primary): Increase the fishing and hunting speed by 50%, consume 50 units of coins, and a 7-day research cycle.

Wood logging (primary): Increase logging speed by 50%, consume 75 units of coins, and a 5-day research cycle.

Mining (primary): Increase mining speed by 50%, consume 50 units of coins, 7-day research cycle

Strengthening body (primary): Improve the villager's physical fitness by 20%, consume 150 units of coins, and a 10-day research cycle.

"System, can we study it at the same time?" Liu Ming was more concerned about this.

"Yes, just build another academy!" The system replied.

Liu Ming smiled bitterly and said: It's true that it's the same setting as the "Empire 3"...

"What are the effects of the villagers after their physical fitness improves?" Liu Ming continued to ask.

"Work efficiency is improved, combat effectiveness is improved." The system answered.

Liu Ming understood that he turned the villagers into special sources like Danyang soldiers. However, he looked at the improvement of work efficiency, and no one would think that the money was low, right? Liu Ming was really scared of poverty during this period.

After hesitating for a few minutes, he chose to raise the farming first. Twenty acres of khata can produce up to three stones per month, and 50% increase is four and a half stones. Twenty acres can harvest ninety stones of corn in a month.

Thirty stones were given out as wages, and the remaining sixty stones were sold and they would soon earn thirty cents. Then the remaining thirty pieces of land were slowly built, and then there would be more money to recruit villagers, build military camps and train soldiers.

There are four months left before the end of the year, and the most famous copy of the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the beginning of next year. No matter what you say, you should join it instead of wandering around the copy to fight the autumn wind.

At present, there are 355 units of coins in hand. Liu Ming gritted his teeth and recruited 55 villagers. So for about three hours, another group of ragged people came to the village gate and requested to be taken in.

Liu Ming is still responsible for making the decision. This time, everyone has less resistance to refugees. The only unhappiness is that they are worried that this group of people will have a month or two of Kanda ownership, and their own income will drop.

But this is not a problem at all. After all, Liu Ming announced that more Kanda will be built in the future. At this point, there is nothing to say except for warmly welcome newcomers to join.

"Have the village chief made a big move recently?" At night, Liu Ming was about to listen to Gao Shun's lecture, but he suddenly asked.

"For the sake of next year's turmoil, I think it's time to prepare for training to write people." Liu Ming answered frankly.

"Do you really believe that there will be a large riot or even a rebellion next year?" Gao Shun asked.

"With Kanda and miracles, it will become possible to rebel on a large scale." Liu Ming replied.

"The man was in turmoil and unexpectedly he would suffer this ordeal again..." Gao Shun couldn't help but sigh.

"I just hope that we can calm this disaster and minimize its harm." Liu Ming said seriously.

"Start the lesson..." Gao Shun smiled and started tonight's class.

To be honest, Liu Ming has planned to build a military camp at this moment. More than half of the new villagers are strong men, and he plans to recruit all of them as soldiers. However, he lacks an excuse to build a military camp.

It's not about the internal, but about the external excuse. Otherwise, a military camp was set up in the village and let the outsiders know that a crime of planning rebellion would probably not be able to escape.

However, in this case, an accident happened.

One day, the villagers went out to farm, but they found several cavalrymen peeking in the distance. They watched the village for a long time before they left.

Judging from the appearance of their clothes, they should not be the team of Hu people fighting the grass valley, but they are also not officers and soldiers.

Horse thief! These two words soon appeared in the mind of the villagers and immediately ran back to the village to call the police.

On the border of the Han Dynasty, it is not surprising that such small-scale and even large-scale horse thieves exist. It’s just that Liujia Village had no money before, and no one came back to steal them.

As for now, the villagers are not sure, especially they are worried that the "Kanda" will be destroyed.

Liu Ming did not hesitate and directly sent someone to Zhenxian to report the enemy situation.

But the county magistrate said: "Particle the troops by yourself, there is no force in the county to garrison in the village!"

This time I went to ask for help, but I got a blank word and nothing was issued. The only gain was a notice from the county magistrate, allowing Liujia Village to organize a village-protecting militia of no more than 100 people.

For Liu Ming, it seemed like he encountered a pillow when he was sleepy and took the opportunity to build the military camp immediately. It was only at this time that he discovered a very bad situation.

That is, training soldiers requires not only people, but also equipment. Iron equipment must be obtained in the feudal era by building a blacksmith workshop; in the dark era, the barracks can only train two types of troops: long-spike militia and bow hunting militia, and the carpenter workshop requires the construction of a carpenter workshop to provide hunting bows and wooden guns, as well as a set of wooden armor and helmets.

As a last resort, Liu Ming had to build a carpenter's workshop. Fortunately, the Wang family's in-laws were an excellent carpenter. The carpenter team built on him could actually increase the production speed by 25%.

At this point, he understood that refugees with special skills could actually bring him such benefits.

The first batch of militias began to be recruited, and a large number of refugees influx made Liujia Village not lacking a suitable source of troops. Training a spear militia in the military camp costs 2 units of coins, and training a bow hunter militia is only 5 units of coins, which can be considered very cheap.

However, even if it is so cheap, Liu Ming has only recruited 30 spear militias and 20 bow hunting militias at this stage. He must leave some coins as reserve funds. At this time, after deducting the cost of recruiting 25 villagers, he only has 50 units of coins left.

"Master, can you be the commander of the army?" Liu Ming pointed to the militia and asked.

"It's really okay to have pure wooden weapons?" Gao Shun was very satisfied with these soldiers with good spirits, but he was very worried about the weapons.

"The Gods must be fine products. The weapons made in the carpenter workshop given by God, do you think they are ordinary weapons?" Liu Ming smiled and asked someone to get a set of equipment for Gao Shun.

This is a system-approved equipment, but there is no saying that it is damaged or sharp. However, no one except the residents under Liu Ming's power can activate this special attribute.

Gao Shun danced with a weapon, feeling that he was so light that he was even more worried. Then, at Liu Ming's suggestion, he tried to stab the wooden stake several times. However, he found that the wooden gun was still a wooden gun, but no matter how many times it punctured, the wooden gun did not bend or deform, or cracked and passivated.

"It's indeed a gift from God!" Gao Shun couldn't help but sigh.

"Master is relieved now?" Liu Ming said with a smile.
