"I want to ask you for a favor."

Looking at Mu Xi sitting straight, Zuo Luo calmly spoke his request.

"Please give orders to the chief."

Muxi didn't ask too much, and soldiers took obeying orders as their duty.

"I'm disrespectful to someone who gave the entire Jiangnan to us. But for such a big place, someone still needs to guard the house, so I want you to help me train a group of people to cultivate their military literacy through a modern training method."

Zuo Luo looked at her eyes.

It was fake to be put on by those old foxes. He said he was not depressed, but now that things have come to this point, it is useless to say more. How to reduce his own losses is the most important thing.

"You want to build an army?"

Mu Xi looked surprised. Are you going to start preparing to dominate the world?

In an ancient society with productivity under such a productive force, raising an army was not an easy task.

A very simple question: In addition to food and grass, regular troops are very important, weapons and equipment, as well as war horses, which are not available in Jiangnan.

Jiangnan is indeed not short of food. As long as people have money in this era, they can naturally recruit them, but equipment and war horses are the most important.

"Don't be surprised."

Of course, Zuo Luo knew her doubts.

"Those are not problems, you just need to train people."

"yes!"

Mu Xi nodded simply.

Training people is not a problem. If the leader asks you to do these things, it means trusting you. Of course, there is no need to say anything more.

"Um."

Zuo Luo nodded.

"I'll ask someone to recruit the first batch of people from various places first, and it's timely to set it to 10,000 people."

Of course, he was not very nervous, so he thought about it and prepared to form an army.

Now he has warriors, but the training of warriors is very slow, and there are not many, so one less loss is lost.

Now that he has to occupy such a large Jiangnan, he naturally needs a large number of manpower. What’s more important is the maritime trade that is about to begin. He can’t just let his warriors charge into battle, right?

When he started to occupy territories in various places on the sea, he would definitely die. Just that number, to be honest, the speed of his cultivation could not keep up with the speed of death, and he would inevitably need ordinary troops.

But there are not many people in Jiangnan after all, so he can only take the elite route.

If there is the power of a country, there will be so many problems. Just use your huge size to suppress people with your power.

At this time, the entire village was in a busy state, and various comforts were still needed after the war, and production was resumed to make merchants from all sides feel at ease. They could not be careless.

At this time, the Women's Association had taken over the governments in various places, leaving only the county towns and the defenders in Jiangnan. There was also the Grandmaster Qian Yi in charge, which made people dare not act rashly.

Zuo Luo was not in a hurry, but just gathered other places first, and the county town was cleaned up in the end.

The increase in spiritual fields, especially the increase in grades, has greatly increased the output and accumulated a lot of medicinal materials at once. In addition, in the past six months, Zuo Luo has never used a medicinal bath to improve people's strength. After this war, they suffered a lot of losses, so he first used up the accumulated medicinal materials and increased the strength of the appropriate manpower. At least the innate number cannot be too small.

Others, even if they cannot be promoted to the innate at once, as long as they make merit, they can get at least one reward for medicinal bath, greatly improving their strength.

If it weren't for the limited spiritual energy of heaven and earth, he would have wanted to use spells every once in a while to summon the dragon and increase the number of spiritual fields.

It's just that this is a way to save your life and cannot be used indiscriminately.

I used it once before, but I consumed all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that had accumulated for so many years in the village at once. I don’t know how many years it will take to accumulate to reach the original level later.

In recent times, the efficiency of everyone's practice has been greatly reduced.

Zuo Luo had no choice but to let time recover slowly.

He used a spiritual bead as the core to cover all the spiritual field and arranged a formation. After a while, there would be a spiritual rain, which would speed up the maturity of crops.

For nothing else, we need to stockpile a large amount of spiritual rice and low-grade medicinal materials.

He must take the elite route and train the army to a certain extent, at least reach the level of special forces in reality.

Although he is not a match for a warrior, he can crush him when facing ordinary people.

What the army values ​​more is team combat, and it is enough to have a certain combat power.

In addition, we naturally have to take revenge.

He was busy during this period, and Yingtang and Ye Ren were not idle either.

The Movie Hall inquired about the news, and Ye Bian took action.

All participating Jiangnan martial arts forces or merchants provide convenience. As long as they participate, they will destroy the family without saying anything.

Since you have participated, you should be prepared.

The bloody storm caused a lot of people to be in danger. Only when they saw that they were not implicated, they were relieved.

This is just a small matter. What Zuo Luo really cares about is the men in black. They are all dead soldiers, and they are very powerful. There are also many master-level dead soldiers, with a large number. Such existences have never appeared in the world, which surprised Zuo Luo. Not everyone is hiding in the dark like the previous Holy Church, just to enjoy it alone.

Moreover, the Holy Church does not show any appearance at all. Baihua Pavilion and Night Blade are all very active.

But before this group of men in black took action, there was really no news at all, as if they appeared out of thin air.

As long as it exists in the world, there will inevitably be traces.

The Movie Hall is not without a little gain.

The forces that assassinated the people in the village before already knew who it was.

Nighthawk!

One of the three major killer organizations in the world, as long as they are given money, there is no target they dare not assassinate.

He even assassinated the Grand Master, but although he failed, he also successfully injured the other party. This is evident in his strength.

In this regard, Zuo Luo only made a request to Ye Bian, and he would not let go of any of the Nighthawk's strongholds found.

Nighthawk's connector, intelligence network, anyway, as long as it is related to the other party, he will pull out all of them.

He wanted to tell everyone that he would continue to take action with integrity, and he would continue to make small moves in secret.

But the end of being an enemy of him is that he will take revenge wildly as long as he does not die.

At the same time, we also urged the Movie Hall to sort out the entire Jiangnan, and not like a sieve, with holes everywhere, and anyone can drill into it.

He wanted Jiangnan to have only one voice, so that the eyes and ears of others would disappear.

To this day, although Yuluo Village is not a holy land, there is no holy land in the world that dares to compete with them except Chongxu Pavilion.

In fact, Chongxu Pavilion is also very uncomfortable now.

The world's top real person Xu Yan did not show up. The only grandmaster Xu Xing was injured this time. I don't know how long it will take to heal when I go back.

This is true for Chongxu Pavilion, so other holy land forces are naturally even more difficult to provoke Yu Luocun, who dares to offend the king of a country, and dares to face offend the king of a country.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the war in the south, and later someone knew that there was actually a war in the West.

And because of that battle, something big that shocked the world happened.

Nangongshi, the commander of the Western garrison, openly claimed that the soldiers of the Northwest Army were untouchables, and repeatedly threatened the Northwest Army to launch a death charge. After the Northwest Army was defeated, it even killed many people and suppressed the world.

As a result, it angered Tan Shouyao, the chief general of the Northwest Army. In the end, Tan Shouyao directly led the Northwest Army to openly claim to surrender to Ren Tian and sent the leader of the Ren Sheng Sect.

The letter of fame he paid was also leading the military masters, and together with the masters of Ren Tian and the Cavalry Hall, they surrounded and killed Nangong City.

In the end, Nangong City was seriously injured and fled, and all the banned dragon guards in the three Western counties were eliminated.

The defenders from all over the country either surrendered or were captured by the city, killing one to warn a hundred.

In just half a month, the storm and the three Western counties completely fell.

Under Zuo Luo's instruction, Ren Tian mobilized the accumulation of the Holy Church over the past century, dispatched believers, and formed his own army, using the three counties as the defense line, cooperating with the elite Northwest Army, and with the recruited personnel, he competed with the Daqing Dynasty.

The two sides met in war, and the Northwest Army and the Zhenbei Army met for the first time in the posture of a hostile person.

When he first heard about the fall of the West, Emperor Qing thought it was a dream. In one night, he lost control of the four counties and lost one-third of the territory, especially Jiangnan County and Koushan County were the economic pillars of the dynasty!

In addition, Jiangbei County, which is basically no longer in hand, Donghai County, which has always been obeying the command and not the announcement. In other words, Daqing has actually lost half of its control.

The twelve counties of Daqing, three counties in the southeast, west and northeast, and the central imperial city is independent.

Among them, the most important economic center in the south is Jiangnan County, which is even more prosperous than Fengyang.

Heishui County in the north and Kuisshan County in the west are mainly the existence of border trade, while the East China Sea has always been prosperous, but it has not been under the jurisdiction of the central government since its founding.

The most important thing is that at the beginning, if it was just a Jiangnan county, it would be hard to sing alone. Daqing had some ways to trap Jiangnan, which had only a corner of the world. Even if you have economy and sufficient food, so what if you have it?

If you have no natural danger, no weapons and equipment, and no war horses, you will always suffer losses when fighting.

But it will be different if you lose the three Western counties.

Because they have been connected, the grain from Jiangnan can be transported directly to the west, and the war horses from the west can also be delivered to the south.

The two sides naturally form a complementary relationship.

Moreover, Wuyi City in Kuangshan County is a very important natural danger, and it is the gateway to face the Dachen and the grassland tribes.

If necessary, Kuashan County can completely trade with the grassland tribe to war horses, cattle and sheep.

This was a complete surprise. Zuo Luo didn't want to fight for dominance in the world, but when everything was delivered directly to him, there was no reason to return it.

Occupying the four counties and having a population of tens of millions, this can already establish a country.

In the ancient real world of Zuoluo, many dynasties had a population explosion that was only a few million, tens or tens of millions, and only later achieved.

However, this world has the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and is rich in resources, so even if you don’t have that kind of food foundation, you can still eat other things to support a large population. The 12 counties of the Daqing Dynasty had a population of about 200 million.

Of course, that is the figure counted before the outbreak of war. Now no one knows how many people are displaced, died in battle, killed, starved to death due to the outbreak of war, etc.
