Chapter 351: Territorial Expansion! Five Cities of Shangyang!
Ma Jun's words.
Wen Yang fell into a state of doubt about his life.
He has shown his unique talent since he started practicing.
Although he has been wandering around for many years and has not been cultivated by a big force, he has grown into a top-notch strongman in the world with limited training resources and training environment.
In all these years.
Have you ever experienced such a big defeat?
It would be fine if the opponent had to use all his strength to defeat him.
Only now did he realize that he was not qualified to let the opponent fight seriously.
This feeling of humiliation, frustration, and shock is absolutely an unprecedented experience!
Of course, not only Wen Yang, but everyone at the scene, including the natural disaster army who had absolute confidence in the lord's strength, was also surprised and shocked at this moment.
"No way!"
"It's just the Lord's projection?"
"The projection is so strong, are you kidding me!"
"More than a month after the Jiuwan battle, the Lord hasn't taken action seriously. I didn't expect that he is so strong now. He is worthy of being my Great Feather God, and he is really invincible!"
"If Wen Yang is a Black Iron King, then how come our Lord's projection is also a Silver King? Then isn't the Lord a Abyss King at least Gold level?"
"Awesome! Awesome!"
"..."
The stronger the Lord is.
The more secure the players will feel.
Although this battle was very short, it was spectacular and imposing, and the viewing experience was explosive. It was also the Lord's first action after many days. It will undoubtedly become a new generation of popular videos!
Brother Xiao Ma: "When did the Lord create such a set of Ten Thousand Phoenixes Burning Heaven Magic?!"
Mulan: "It has a little shadow of the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear, but it is ten blocks away from the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix!"
"Is this a purple martial art?"
"Nonsense, with such momentum, it must be a purple martial art!"
"Except for General Dian's Demonic Transformation, I have never seen such an amazing martial art!"
"..."
After seeing Hang Yu take action, the Wei army soldiers at the scene naturally felt fear and horror from the bottom of their hearts.
"This Lord of Stars... is too strong!"
Qin Lang and Xiahou Xian knew the gap between themselves and Wen Yang.
In a one-on-one situation, the two thought it would be difficult to hold on for ten rounds.
In a two-on-one situation, they could only hold on for fifty or sixty rounds at most.
Even if there were thousands of elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry around to contain him, he could not take him down in a short period of time, and was instead repeatedly attacked and broken by him.
It is conceivable how strong Wen Yang's combat power is.
With such strength, let alone the two of them, there are only a handful of people in the entire Wei court who can fight against him.
In a one-on-one situation, General Zhang He may only be able to barely hold on for a hundred rounds, and will most likely be defeated by Wen Yang in the end.
Even if Grand Marshal Cao Zhen has the ability to win a one-on-one battle, it is not easy to capture and kill Wen Yang with his speed.
However.
Facing the Star Lord.
Wen Yang was crushed in all aspects.
Even his proud speed.
The power of this Star Lord is incredible, and he has a group of elite soldiers and generals under his command.
Qin Lang, Xiahou Xian and others only feel that in front of the human leader, their strength and troops are as ridiculous as an ant trying to shake a tree.
A few minutes later.
Everyone entered the human lord's city.
Although the Mushengmen and the Wei army soldiers are not the people of the territory, the lord allows them to move around in the territory so that they can better understand the territory.
Because the territory guards and Xiao Ba will monitor at any time, there is no need to worry that these people will cause trouble to the territory.
When Mu Sheng Ma Jun led three elders and 46 Mu Sheng disciples through the Lord Avenue and officially entered the Lord Castle, they were all shocked by what they saw.
"Formation!"
"Formation is everywhere!"
"In this city, there are many facilities that perfectly match the formation, which is simply a miracle!"
Pei Xiu is the one with the best formation talent and the best use of formation in the Mu Sheng Sect. He has at least the qualifications of a senior formation master.
When he walked into the main city of Luoshui.
He discovered various star facilities at the first time.
Training tower, skill tower, enlightenment tower, star library, star arena, various workshops, canteens, spiritual fields, etc.
The abundance of extraordinary facilities and the completeness of various formations in Luoshui City undoubtedly opened the eyes of these indigenous technology geeks, and they all had a strong desire to study.
Not to mention the bet first.
At this moment, even if they are driven away.
Most of these people didn't want to leave.
Soon after.
Ma Jun came to the core hall of the lord.
Two high-ranking officials of the territory were already waiting here.
Unlike Dian Wei, Zhou Cang or Wen Pin, these two were not military generals, but more like civil officials in temperament.
One of them had white eyebrows and beard, white hair and a childlike face, and kind eyes. He was an old man with a vigorous spirit.
The other one had long hair, a graceful figure, an intellectual and gentle temperament, and was a stunning beauty.
"I am Zhang Ji, and I welcome the Wood Saint!" Zhang Zhongjing was the first to bow his hands to express his welcome.
Zou Wan also said, "The Lord has prepared a banquet, please come in and take a seat!"
Ma Jun was not good at speaking, and what he saw along the way shocked him. He didn't know what to say at this moment.
Elder Fu Xuan hurriedly said, "Thank you, both of you!"
In the banquet hall of the Lord's Castle, the aroma of fine wine and delicious food filled the air, and the banquet was already set.
The Wood Saint Sect discovered that there were many strange races shuttling around, such as a pair of fat and big-eared brothers who looked like Zhu. They had never seen such a foreign race before.
"These are the chefs hired by the territory. These two are the Akiaba brothers, the most famous chefs in the main city."
Zou Wan introduced: "They are now fourth-level senior chefs who are close to cooking experts. This kind of strength is respected and admired even in the Land of Stars."
Ma Jun asked: "Does the territory have powerful refiners?"
Zou Wan nodded: "Of course, although our territory has not been developed for a long time, the lord has always attached great importance to production. Whether it is refining, refining medicine, cooking or construction, it is an important industry that is indispensable to the territory."
"At present, our territory has twelve refinery workshops, including ten third-level refinery workshops and two fourth-level refinery workshops."
"The territory has hired more than a hundred refiners from the stars."
"Among them, there are more than twenty senior refiners, six fourth-level senior refiners, and one fourth-level refiner expert."
After speaking.
Zou Wan also popularized the concept of refiner classification in the Land of Stars to everyone, which shocked the people of Mu Shengmen.
Because in terms of level, even the famous Wood Saint Ma Jun is only a fourth-level weapon refiner.
That is.
In the territory.
There is an existence whose weapon refinement ability is not inferior to that of the Wood Saint.
In addition to Ma Jun, the three elders of the Wood Saint Sect are the ones with the highest weapon refinement level, among which only the first elder Gao Tanglong and the second elder Fu Xuan have reached the level of fourth-level senior weapon refiners.
As for the third elder Pei Xiu, his weapon refinement level is only a fourth-level intermediate weapon refiner, but he is a genius formation master and has the potential to be a fourth-level senior builder.
That is to say.
This human territory.
Although it has only been developed for less than half a year.
But the team of weapon refiners even exceeds that of the Wood Saint Sect.
When they learned this, how could Ma Jun, Pei Xiu and others not be shocked?
Of course.
The transcendence here.
Just compare the pure weapon refinement level.
The people of the Wood Saint Sect are not ordinary weapon refiners, and the experience and skills of weapon refinement accumulated by the Wood Saint Sect over hundreds of years of development are not comparable to those of ordinary star weapon refiners.
Ma Jun is a top technology geek.
At this moment, he can't wait to go to the weapon refinery workshop to learn the weapon refinement methods of the star weapon refiners.
"The Lord is here."
"Greetings to the Lord!"
Although they have met each other outside the city just now.
But the Lord's real body and projection are obviously different.
Hang Yu did not deliberately conceal his breath at this moment. The blessing brought by the level 5 king soul and the level 5 lord halo made his aura extremely powerful.
Even if he is as proud and rebellious as Wen Yang, facing the man with peerless charm and aura in front of him, he actually feels inferior and out of reach.
Of course.
He will have this feeling.
A large part of the reason is that his spirit has just been severely frustrated.
Hang Yu sat down at the lord's seat and said with satisfaction: "Today is a good day. With Mu Sheng leading all the disciples to join the territory, the foundation and strength of our human race will surely be further improved."
Gao Tanglong immediately responded with a salute: "Lord, you don't mind the trouble to protect us who are hiding from place to place. Mu Sheng disciples should do their best to help the territory and repay this kindness."
Ma Jun is not good at speaking.
He has an old problem of stuttering.
Gao Tanglong is the chief elder of Mu Sheng Sect.
What he said represents the attitude of Mu Sheng Sect.
Mu Sheng Sect did not mention joining the territory, but regarded this trip as an equal exchange. Because the territory protected Mu Sheng Sect, Mu Sheng Sect kept its promise to serve the lord.
Hang Yu didn't care.
Mu Sheng Ma Jun and his followers had just arrived.
Although they were of the same race, there was no natural estrangement and obstacle, but after all, they didn't know Hang Yu and the human race leader. It was too much to ask them to swear allegiance and join the territory at this moment.
Hang Yu has enough confidence in the territory.
Once Ma Jun and his group come, they will never leave.
When they have enough knowledge about the territory,
it is inevitable that they will choose to join the territory and be loyal to the lord.
Hang Yu then said: "Speaking of which, this lord just has something that may require the participation and help of Mr. Mu Sheng."
Ma Jun: "What is it?"
Hang Yu said that the territory is making a purple quality suit.
As a result, both Ma Jun and Mu Shengmen were very interested.
The higher the quality of the equipment.
The more difficult it is to refine!
The more materials are consumed!
Let's take a simple example.
Sometimes, one material can be used to create white quality equipment.
When creating green quality equipment, at least two or three different green materials may be used.
When creating blue quality equipment, sometimes ten or eight different blue quality materials are consumed.
When the quality of the equipment reaches purple, the difficulty is several orders of magnitude higher, the materials consumed and the cost are amazing, and the success rate is also very low.
Of course, you can also create a low-level and low-quality equipment first.
Then use forging stones, quality gems, and a large amount of material essence to improve it little by little.
However, the cost and price of doing so are no lower than directly refining equipment, and it may even consume more manpower and material resources. However, the biggest advantage is that there is no need to specify materials, so it will be easier to collect materials.
No matter which one you choose.
The birth of a purple outfit will consume a huge amount of resources, especially a large amount of purple materials.
Although the Shouyangshan area is vast, purple quality materials have been hard to come by for hundreds of years. Even with the ability and reputation of the Wood Saint, it is very difficult to obtain such materials.
Because of this.
For hundreds of years.
The purple-grade creations created by the Wood Saint are few and far between.
Nowadays, the human race has enough of this top material, and there is no need to consider the consumption problem. The greatest effort is made to improve the quality. This is an irresistible temptation for any craftsman!
Without even thinking about it!
The Wood Saint Ma Jun accepted it!
Hang Yu: "Okay, with the help of Mu Sheng, the probability of success will be much greater. As long as you can refine equipment that satisfies this lord, the territory will reward you greatly!"
Fu Xuan hurriedly said: "It is the best reward for the Mu Sheng Sect to participate in the forging of such a masterpiece. We dare not expect to get more."
Hang Yu said: "This lord is clear about rewards and punishments. This is the rule of the territory. There is no need to refuse!"
"I thank the lord on behalf of the Mu Sheng Sect!"
"Thank you, Lord!"
Ma Jun and others saluted Hang Yu one after another.
Hang Yu did not expect that this matter would go so smoothly. He originally wanted to find someone to help, but the person he found was not only not bothered, but was full of enthusiasm and even grateful for it.
That's it.
The Mu Sheng Sect settled down in the human territory.
Because the total number of people did not exceed fifty.
Hang Yu randomly allocated two large houses and regarded them as the new residence of the Mu Sheng Sect.
As for Qin Lang, Xiahou Xian and other Wei soldiers, Hang Yu specially drew a military camp and allowed them to stay in the territory for a few days.
To express his gratitude and reward, Hang Yu gave each Wei soldier a reward. Ordinary soldiers were given at least 10 territory silver coins each, and generals such as Qin Lang and Xiahou Xian were given 10 territory gold coins.
Although the currency unit of the human race territory is contribution points.
But the human race territory has always had circulating currency.
One territory copper coin is equal to 1 contribution point, one territory silver coin is equal to 100 contribution points, and one territory gold coin is equal to 10,000 contribution points.
Hang Yu gave 1,000 contribution points to each ordinary soldier, and gave 100,000 contribution points to important generals such as Qin Lang and Xiahou Xian, which was enough for them to have a good experience in the territory.
Although most functions and facilities.
Only formal territory citizens can use them.
But some extraordinary facilities have no such restrictions.
In addition, there are various commodities, catering, service industries, etc., which are also unrestricted.
Hang Yu did not forcefully annex this army, but was prepared to corrupt them little by little. When these Wei army soldiers have enough understanding of the territory, especially in the face of various super welfare benefits and future growth potential.
Anyone with some rationality.
will inevitably have a yearning heart.
Hang Yu can also spread the situation of the territory to more Wei army or local people through these people, which will be of great help to the human race leader to recruit the people in the Shouyang Mountain area in the future.
…
Special Adjustment Department Headquarters.
While Hang Yu was still entertaining and settling these foreign guests.
Zhou Zhengming once again convened a meeting of the various departments and groups of the Special Adjustment Department.
"Director!"
"This map!"
"It is the latest achievement of our company!"
"This must be the most detailed map of Shouyang Mountain so far!"
"…"
On the big screen.
A very large map is being presented.
Zhou Zhengming was very pleased when he saw this map.
This is the result of the Special Investigation Division's efforts over the past week or so!
Currently, there are as many as ten natural disaster corps supported by the Daxia government!
Although several of the strongest corps, led by the Immortal Dragon Soul Corps, have been focusing their main efforts on the Eternal Dark Sea, and a small number of people have participated in the Taicang Ridge activities, other weaker corps have not been idle recently.
Now the map presented to everyone.
It was the Special Investigation Department's more than 20 intelligence specialists who spent more than a week collecting various intelligence and finally summarizing it.
Zhou Zhengming heard from the Daxia intelligence agency that recently the Bald Eagle, the European Union, Tianzhu, Japan and other countries are also actively collecting intelligence on new territories. Everyone obviously doesn't want to miss this brand new cake.
However.
Compared with the Special Investigation Department.
Their actions are more than a beat slower.
Now the players under the Special Investigation Department's Operations Department have established themselves in at least 15 different cities. They have supporting staff groups and various professionals behind them, and are collecting intelligence and developing forces at the fastest speed.
Zhou Zhengming asked: "Feng Ying, please tell us about our company's plans and arrangements!"
"Yes!"
Feng Ying immediately said: "Our company's arrangements and preparations are all based on the territory strategy. After all, only by following the trend can we achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"At present, the territory has two major strategic focuses. One is to continue to build and increase productivity internally, and the other is to actively expand externally and conquer more land and population."
"Internal industrial opportunities, territorial settlements and core asset competition will not be discussed for the time being."
"We should focus on the next territory development plan!"
After speaking.
Feng Ying pressed the remote control.
Switched to a map screen.
Although it was still a map of the new territory.
But this map only has a part of the Shouyang Mountain area.
This part is also divided into ten pieces of different sizes.
"This is the border map of the Wei Kingdom in Shouyang Mountain!"
"The Wei Kingdom is composed of a total of ten county-level administrative regions!"
Feng Ying pointed to the top county: "This county is called 'Shangyang County', and it is also a county directly bordering the territory, including the entire Taicang Ridge, which is undoubtedly our first target to conquer."
"According to our reconnaissance and intelligence!"
"Shangyang County may have as many as nineteen blessing points!"
"Including one main city-level blessing point, four city-level blessing points, and fourteen township-level blessing points!"
"Among the five cities in Shangyang County, in addition to the abandoned Yonghe City, there is the county seat Shangyang City, as well as Pushan City, Fenshui City, and Yong'an City. The strategic location of each city is critical."
" ..."
An official who came to the Special Investigation Division for a meeting on behalf of the leadership asked: "How does the territory plan to attack the city?"
Feng Ying said: "The territory does not plan to attack the city."
"Not attacking the city?"
Feng Ying: "So far, the human race has temporarily controlled the Wei army troops in Taicangling and established the first blessing point in the deserted Yonghe City. With this blessing point, the natural disaster army can continue to have troops."
"But it is very difficult to take the remaining four cities, especially the main city of Shangyang County, by force. It is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but may also cause great losses and increase the cost of governance."
"It is not difficult to see based on Jia Xu's recent deployment and planning."
"He wants to take the entire Shangyang County without bloodshed."
Paused.
Feng Ying switched to a picture.
This picture has many lists of people.
For example, Cao Xi, the governor of Yong'an City, and Xu Gai, the captain of Yong'an City, are both on this list.
"It's not hard to find out from this list."
"There is at least one governor or captain in each of the four cities in Shangyang County, and there are many other garrisons."
"In addition, each city has sent garrisons, so the Taicangling operation can quickly mobilize a force of nearly 30,000 people, and now this force is under the indirect control of the territory."
Deputy Director Zhang Wei said at this time: "The entire Shangyang County is cooperating in this Taicangling Demon Suppression Campaign. This should be an order issued by Cao Rui."
Feng Ying nodded: "Because of this, the main general Zhang He and the deputy general Cao Shuang who are going on this expedition are To command these local troops and even the main officials, and now both of them are under Jia Xu's control. "
"If we are not wrong."
"Jia Xu will definitely use the influence of Zhang He and Cao Shuang to ignite all the blessing points of the four cities in one go, and lead the local garrisons and officials to directly turn to the territory."
"Not only can we gain control of several cities or even a county without bloodshed."
"It can also make Zhang He and others publicly convicted of treason."
"Thus cutting off their retreat!"
"Leave them no choice!"
Everyone nodded.
This is indeed what Jia Xu would do.
He is too good at inciting trouble and manipulating behind the scenes.
Jia Xu only needs to control the main officials or generals, and then a large number of their confidants will follow and join the territory. When these confidants and even relatives join the territory, do these people still have a choice?
Although it is not ruled out that there will be some stubborn elements who are particularly stubborn, this method is undoubtedly the most efficient and has the least loss compared to directly sending a large army to the border and destroying the city forcibly.
At this time.
Zhou Zhengming concluded.
"From Jia Xu's arrangement and deployment."
"The occupation of Shangyang County by the territory is likely to happen overnight."
"The whole process will be very fast, so the window of opportunity is limited!"
"Now we have people in the four cities, we must race against time to develop our power, especially to establish contact with local nobles and clans."
"Once the city is captured by the territory!"
"Just convince these people to be loyal to the territory first."
"On the one hand, it can speed up the conquest of the territory, and on the other hand, it can also get us a large reward."
"In this process, we can also quickly expand our influence in the local area, so as to be the first to tap indigenous talents for the major corps and our special investigation department, which has many important meanings!"
"..."
So.
The special investigation department held this meeting.
It was through Jia Xu's arrangement and deployment.
It was speculated that the territory would have a big move in the near future.
The Special Investigation Department wants to seize this opportunity to gain more benefits.
Of course, not only the Special Investigation Department, but also other major forces and countries are also intensively analyzing the situation at this moment, hoping to gain more benefits from the subsequent development and expansion of the territory.
