Chapter 164: Dark Clouds

The black clouds floating over the far northern fortress made the entire northern land fall into silence.

Although the noisy civil war is in full swing, among the people, people who are paying attention to the situation in the north have not forgotten the pain caused by last year. They are here and they are looking forward to it.[.]

Can Dragon City, which brings them endless surprises, save Bywest again?

No one dares to say absolutely, even Zhou Yunfei cannot guarantee victory.

Looking at the black clouds in the distant sky, Zhou Yunfei's eyes were deep.

"Master, Mr. Zhuge is here." Diao Chan was still by Zhou Yunfei's side, taking care of him carefully every moment.

Zhou Yunfei slowly withdrew his eyes and looked into the distance, "Invite him to come in."

"Lord." After Zhuge Liang came in, he saluted Zhou Yunfei.

"Sir, are you here for something important?" Zhou Yunfei waved his hand, indicating that Zhuge Liang did not need to be polite.

Zhuge Liang smiled softly and said, "My lord, this year's fiscal, taxation and food supplies have all been verified."

"Oh? How is it?" Zhou Yunfei asked curiously. Without the system's search function, Zhou Yunfei could only rely on original statistical methods and could not always know the financial situation of Longcheng.

Zhuge Liang took out a thick document and said, "Lord, this year's two crops will be a bumper harvest."

Zhou Yunfei looked at the agricultural report, which detailed all agricultural records within Longcheng.

"Well, it seems that this method of encouraging farming is very useful." Zhou Yunfei was very emotional after seeing it.

As the number of people coming to Longcheng increases, the fertile land in the past becomes more and more scarce. Fortunately, there is indeed a lot of land in the north. Even if we exclude the natural cultivated land under the Hengduan Mountains, we still have vast land.

Although in the past, the backward farming methods of the Ross continent could not be fully utilized due to weather reasons. Therefore, in people's subconscious, the concept that the north is barren has become deeply ingrained.

Zhou Yunfei originally thought of a way to increase the enthusiasm of the people, which was the tillage method.

What is the subdivision farming method? It is very simple. You can go to the Civil Affairs Office to apply and apply to participate in land reclamation.

This land reclamation refers to those fields that are uncultivated.

All citizens or recognized civilians of Dragon City can get support from the governor after applying for land reclamation. Whether it is high-quality grain seeds or advanced farming methods, there are specialized personnel to help.

And the most important thing is that once the land is cleared, Longcheng will only charge 10% of the food produced in the field!

In other words, the remaining 90% of the food is owned by the land reclamation workers themselves!

This way, 90% of the profits are simply given to them for free.

It seems that the governor's office is at a great loss, but if you think about it differently, why didn't Longcheng get 10% of the food in vain? You know, before the land reclamation, these fields were neglected wasteland. Only by encouraging the people can they become

Good land for farming!

At the beginning, the effect of this method was not very obvious.

Obviously, people have not changed their mindset, and no one will believe this kind of thing delivered to their door. But there are always one or two people in the world who dare to eat crabs.

Of course, this good thing spread slowly.

In a short period of time, the gate of Longcheng Civil Affairs Bureau was almost squeezed through. In the end, Zhuge Liang promulgated new regulations, which slowly calmed down the commotion.

However, this could not stop the enthusiasm of the people to open up wasteland. For a time, the cultivation of wasteland became the most popular topic among the people of Longcheng. Even the farmers who owned fertile land were unable to resist the temptation of this enthusiasm.

In this way, the Longcheng Governor's Office successfully solved the problem of grain. Using advanced farming technology and high-quality grain seeds, it is logical that Longcheng has two consecutive years of bumper harvests.

The rich harvest not only met the needs of Dragon City's growing population, but also became the confidence for Dragon City to repeatedly use troops. Even the Claire family had to turn to Dragon City for help, because the food problem has always been a problem that plagues the entire human society.

After finishing the food report, Zhou Yunfei looked at the financial income report.

Due to the April War and the upcoming offensive and defensive war in the Far North this year, the Dragon City Governor's military expenditures in fiscal expenditures have increased sharply. This has also led to a huge fiscal deficit.

Zhou Yunfei frowned. Just looking at such a huge deficit makes people's scalp numb. However, because the previous ones were still very wealthy, even if there is such a huge deficit this year, Dragon City will still not damage its roots.

As soon as the cannon fired, there was ten thousand taels of gold. This is indeed true. Due to a series of military operations, Longcheng has turned a large part of its income into military strength. This also made Zhou Yunfei very emotional, but this is a must

expenditure, otherwise you may be greedily eaten by others while you are immersed in development. Without a strong military force to guarantee it, everything is empty talk.

"Mr. Zhuge, can the governor's finances guarantee this far north strategy?" Zhou Yunfei thought for a while and asked Zhuge Liang.

"My lord, don't worry. The governor's office can guarantee all the funds for this far north strategy." Zhuge Liang replied with a smile.

"Lord, the people are very enthusiastic about this extreme northern strategy. Many people donated enthusiastically. The governor's office alone received more than 600,000 gold coins."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Zhou Yunfei was very surprised. He didn't expect the people of Dragon City to be so supportive of this far north strategy.

If you think about it carefully, there are less than 100,000 Chinese people in Dragon City, and most of the rest are native residents who migrated from the north to the south. Almost all their ancestors participated in the war against the orcs, and the hatred from generation to generation made them hate everything.

The war against the orcs is fully supported.

This time Longcheng took over the defense against the orcs, so they naturally gave their full support to Zhou Yunfei. If a survey were conducted now, Zhou Yunfei would become the most popular figure in Longcheng.

Of course, in the hearts of the original people of Dragon City, Zhou Yunfei has long been a myth. This refers to the earliest civilians or citizens who followed Dragon City.

The people from the north who later moved here worshiped brave men even more.

For example, Zhao Yun, the most shining general in the April War, naturally became the most admired person in the hearts of the people.

Now, after Zhou Yunfei took over the responsibility of guarding the northern gate of mankind, he naturally became their new object of worship.

There has never been a lord who has such courage as Zhou Yunfei to give up the struggle for power and instead voluntarily guard the northern gate for the safety of mankind.

Such a noble behavior made the people admire them. Of course, they fully supported Longcheng's military operations.

Take a look at the military gate of Longcheng. Every day, countless young people come to ask whether Longcheng is still recruiting troops with the encouraging eyes of their families.

Today's Dragon City is really united as one, and its cohesion is unprecedentedly strong.

In fact, this situation is also caused by the propaganda of Zhuge Liang and others.

Various channels were used to publicize Zhou Yunfei and Longcheng's extreme north strategy as unprecedentedly noble, taking the opportunity to establish Zhou Yunfei's image in the hearts of the northern people. This move can be said to have accomplished multiple things with one stone, and even Zhuge Liang is very satisfied with the current situation.

situation.

Just as Longcheng was sharpening its sword and preparing to fight the orcs, the power struggle within the Byvost Empire also entered a fever pitch.

Fighting conflicts break out in various places more than dozens of times every day.

Ranging from a few hundred people to tens of thousands, various forces began to form cliques and fight fiercely after an initial chaotic battle.

Among them, the four companies with the greatest influence and strength have naturally become their best choices.

Ever since, a new reshuffle has begun under such circumstances.

Perhaps, when the four forces complete the integration, the Byvost Civil War will change further, and that is when the fighting becomes most intense.

The orc army is advancing towards the Far North Fortress.

An army of tens of thousands marches with the determination to win. This war that determines the fate of the orc race is moving towards its predetermined conclusion step by step.

In the Far North Fortress, the nervous and busy people were waiting quietly under this depressing atmosphere.

"Brother, when do you think the orcs will come?" the patrolling soldier quietly asked the person in front.

"It's almost there. I heard from the people in the Second Regiment that it's probably about ten days away." The people in front also replied in a low voice.

"Hey, I've never seen what an orc looks like. I don't know if the legend is correct. I heard that they are all as tall as two or three people and have great strength." The soldier who asked the question guessed.

"Yes, I only heard about it when I was in Alton before. However, I really didn't expect that I would be able to come to this northern gate of mankind and fight the legendary orcs myself." The person in front was very emotional.

Said.

Yes, these two soldiers came from the collapsed Alton Empire. During the April War, they were reorganized by the First Cavalry Division commanded by Zhao Yun and became a vassal army. Later, they became Dragon City's established troops.

, the former 1st Cavalry Division Pioneer Battalion attached to the Army.

As natives of Alton, the two of them had naturally only heard of the barbaric race of orcs in the legends of their childhood. But no one expected that they would actually come to the Far North Fortress and serve as Dragon City.

As a soldier, he will participate in the upcoming battle in the Far North.

"Come on, I heard what the company commander said, those orcs can only hold their heads with their arms, and they will die if they are stabbed." The soldier refuted the speculation of the person in front of him without hesitation.

In the Far North Fortress, officers are responsible for teaching the soldiers how to fight against the orcs every day.

What's even more terrifying is that the Second Army found several corpses of orcs from nowhere. They used medical anatomy methods to teach the soldiers, clearly telling them where to attack in order to kill the orcs.

Death, or loss of combat effectiveness.

This simple yet cruel teaching method allowed the soldiers to quickly master the method of fighting the orcs, and at the same time indirectly eliminated the soldiers' fear of the orcs.

Now in the Far North Fortress, talk of "beasts" has long ceased to change. Instead, the soldiers have high morale. They seem to have seen the dazzling war medals they received after winning the war.

The black clouds over the Far North Fortress also seemed to indicate that a war concerning the survival of the orc race was about to begin!
