The rainfall in Hanzhong is becoming increasingly serious, so the army can only stop moving forward.

Heavy rain makes the bowstring soft and cannot exert its power at all. More importantly, heavy rain will also affect sight and will have a great impact in hand-to-hand combat. Therefore, as long as you are a normal person, you will basically not start a war on rainy days, camping each other until the sky is clear, at least it is the right thing to start a war again on cloudy days.

Cao Cao and others sent the first group of about 5,000 troops and began to drive the ships that they had finally gathered together to start crossing the river. As soon as they arrived on the other side, they were violently attacked by Liu's army. There was no rain here, and the shotguns, flowering bullets, crossbows and arrows were fired out like money.

Before the five thousand people could land, they sank to the bottom of the river to feed fish and shrimp. The worst thing was that the transport ship was destroyed and another batch had to be built.

Cao Cao and the other two were very happy and said to themselves: Please urge me, if you don’t have any life, continue urging me!

It was a pity that the five thousand soldiers died, but they were basically elite trained by the disciples of the Dao Sect and the Wu Sect. Now that the disciples who commanded them sank into the river together, Cao Cao and the other two were naturally happy to hear it.

After the two sects suffered losses, they naturally would not continue to lead troops across the river. They just watched the ships not being able to build them for a long time, and were extremely anxious. They thought about landing from other places, such as Hulao Pass, but after thinking about it, they gave up again.

Not to mention the way to Yecheng from there, it was a completely detour. Liu Ming could mobilize superior troops to slowly draw him. And even if he fought, he was afraid that the other party would have the ability to make a judgment in advance and then give up Yecheng and leave. It would be meaningless to attack Liu Ming in such a way.

Liu Ming has limited manpower, but the disunity of the alliance of princes is also a big problem. If you cannot conquer Yecheng with lightning speed and kill Liu Ming while still being single-minded, then when winter comes, even if you don’t want to leave, you must leave.

These days, there are no cotton coats, cashmere robes, or duck down jackets.

Fur coats are cold-proof clothing that only rich people can enjoy. Most people should add a piece of linen at most, or they should not go out all winter.

The disciples of both sects were anxious, but Liu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The last month finally passed, and he waited for the system to be upgraded.

It can be predicted that the next upgrade will happen after unifying the Han Dynasty. In other words, before unifying the world, you should not expect to see the system upgrade again. Therefore, it can be said that this is the last upgrade of the system.

He is looking forward to what kind of surprise the system will bring to him this time!

Of course, if you can have happiness, there is no need to be surprised.

I went to the study silently and told my family not to allow anyone to come in, so I opened the interface.

Power name: Han.

Lord: Liu Ming.

Position: Prince.

Times: New Empire Age.

Force buildings: administrative center; farmland (100/100); academy; carpenter workshop; military camp; sentry. blacksmith shop, market, archery camp; cavalry camp; hospital; patrol room; Taoist temple; siege weapon workshop; wharf; Wushen Pavilion; spirit gathering formation; gunpowder workshop;

Buildings can be built: prisons; tombs of the Loyal Soul; banks; tax bureaus.

Unbuilt buildings: Prison; Tomb of the Loyal Soul; Bank; Taxation Bureau.

Resources: 880,000 units of coins; 200,000 units of wood; 175,000 units of iron ore.

People's hearts: Condensation (condensation/ordinary/trepidation/anger) When Liu Ming saw that the building had not been built, he couldn't help but stick out his tongue. He didn't know whether he was forgetful or thought that these two facilities were not important, so he had never been built. Fortunately, the system will still exist in the upgrade, so it will be built later.

Now he has discovered another use of prison, which is torture the disciples of the three sects. The torture of the system prison has a characteristic, that is, it is that it is worse than death and cannot die. For the sake of happiness, I believe that the disciples of the three sects will report everything they want to know to themselves truthfully.

The Loyal Soul Tomb has the function of suppressing souls. In addition to calming people's hearts and enhancing the fighting spirit of soldiers, the greatest effect is that the undead and spiritual spells or attacks will be invalidated. Liu Ming didn't know if there would be such a evil ** on the Dao Sect, but it is also necessary to prevent Yu Weiran.

Banks are the units that Liu Ming always hopes to appear, but they have never appeared.

In the Dutch power of "Empire 3", banks are a kind of existence that can continuously generate money as long as they are built. However, in this world, it is an important building used to regulate financial relations.

Recently, I have made a lot of gold and silver in Japan. I was saying that there is no meaning to have too many things, so it is best to use them directly to make them into gold and silver coins, and together with copper coins, as the main circulating currency units on the market.

But he is not from the financial industry, and there is no possibility of talent in this area around him. Liu Ming is also worried that a good policy that would benefit the country and the people would be harmed. Therefore, even if he is willing to mint coins, he would have to temporarily stand.

Nowadays, things appear much better. At least the system will help you train professionals.

The last tax bureau is similar to the Ministry of Revenue in the world. It is only responsible for collecting taxes and cultivating qualified tax talents. The taxation of imported and export goods, the taxation of luxury goods and goods required, etc., cannot be randomly settled, nor can it be added at will, otherwise it will cause adverse consequences.

The more awesome x functions may also be, but I still can't see through it. However, the two departments are indeed the institutions they need most at this stage, and can balance the territorial economic situation that has begun to be messed up.

The academy has undergone significant changes and has been renamed the School of Science and Technology and Culture Research. Strictly speaking, it is a university-level school.

At the same time, two or three simplified versions of primary schools, middle schools and universities can be built on this basis.

In other words, as long as you have money, you can make all villages in the territory have a primary school, all towns have a middle school, and build a university in all capital cities. After graduating from university, you will pass the civil service examination and recruit a group of new officials in the territory to listen to it, and from then on, you will get rid of the monopoly of knowledge by aristocratic families.

From this, it is also certain that after this thing became popular, I was standing opposite to the aristocratic family. After all, I destroyed the things that the other party had eaten for nearly a thousand years.

The upgraded academy has disappeared, or it has changed from cold data to various physical objects.

To describe it, an ice cream appeared out of thin air, but now it is necessary to slowly make the ice cream. Ice cream will eventually be available, but how it appears makes it look more flesh and blood.

In this way, even the natives of this era can join the research ranks, of course, but not in time. At the same time, research skills have changed from directly spending money to investing in research. To put it bluntly, the research institute gave a topic, and then Liu Ming himself decided whether to spend money to study it.

The military camp has changed the most. It should be said that after this era, no matter whether it is the archer, cavalry, infantry, or even the siege equipment camp, they can only produce three types of troops.

The first type is the God of Martial Arts, who is good at melee combat, and equips melee cold weapons and horses to become the corresponding types of troops.

The second type is Hawkeye, who is good at long-range and equips long-range hot and cold weapons and horses to become corresponding troops.

The third type is intelligent brain, which is fine in melee combat and long range. It is suitable for being a scout, engineer, baggage trooper and knight.

Seeing this, Liu Ming was thinking badly, if the Martial God is good at melee combat, so what if he doesn't equip weapons? As a result, the system prompts that there is no problem. With the Martial God's combat ability, he braved the opponent's guns and bullets and rushed into the enemy formation. With his hands, feet, and even teeth, he could kill the enemy.

The only problem is that the casualties will be greater... Isn't this obviously nonsense?!

However, this also shows a problem, that is, with the advancement of technology in the times, every soldier is actually a qualified warrior or even a warrior. In the past, he might be fully qualified to become a general.

Therefore, the general's power is used as soldiers and uses simple combat formation skills. No matter what weapon you are using, it is naturally easy to get started. If you continue to divide the troops, it seems unnecessary.

The maximum recruitment limit of the system has become 500,000, and the recruitment funds for the third-class troops have not been further increased. This made Liu Ming relieved the boss. The transitional troops of the musket soldiers have disappeared, or in other words, this kind of troops that only require an ordinary soldier and a musket, and can be trained within three months with 100 bullets a day. The system has disdained to produce them.

After the three types of troops are recruited, the monthly military pay is also a considerable expense, so the ace army naturally cannot receive the same salary as ordinary soldiers. Therefore, the 200,000 ace army is the scope allowed by the current finance.

In fact, there is another thing that has always existed but I have ignored it.

That is the treasure system. The treasures recognized by the system can generate a certain bonus. The Explorer's setting in "Empire 3" is to go out to find treasures. Not only can you find enough resources for the territory in the early stage, but you can also find some special treasures that can add bonuses to the territory.

For example, the speed of the cavalry is increased by 20%, the attack power of the cavalry against the villagers is increased, etc.

After this system upgrade, this function has also been improved.

The system will display the distribution of treasures in the territory, so that you can find and discover them yourself. For existing treasures, mixed promotion is allowed.

In layman's terms, for example, two top-level horses will produce a new horse after mating. After this new horse is recognized by the system, it will be a new treasure. The attribute has a certain probability of higher attributes than the original two horses, and of course it may also be lower. The system uses the highest calculation method to take the highest value of the treasure that has an impact on a certain aspect, rather than superimposing it.

This also means that after the mixing of "The Art of War" and "Yu Liaozi", a new book of military strategy may be produced. The value of this book itself may be higher than that of "The Art of War" and "Yu Liaozi", and of course it may be lower or equal to these two books.

System technology, plus ** bonus, plus treasure bonus, equals the true combat power of soldiers.
