Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Since Zhang He regained half of the country of Lu, he has also lost the motivation to expand.

​​

The population is too small, the army is not enough, and the long border line requires a large number of troops to be stationed.

​​

As for his 2000 Blackwater Army, after several battles, there were only a few hundred veterans left, and the rest were all recruits who were added later.

​​

The combat effectiveness of such an army is naturally not as good as before.

​​

Even the zombies in the territory have been consumed by seventy-eighty-eight, and now there are not many left.

​​

Under the circumstance that Zhang He's strength has reached its limit, the two sides of the boundary river between Lu State and Sui State are now densely packed with demons, migrating across the river to Lu State.

​​

The purpose of the demons occupying Sui and Lu is naturally for a better living environment here and to occupy more resources.

​​

Compared with the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Sui and Lu two countries belonged to the borderlands, but they were still much better than the exiled land in the Western Wilderness.

​​

On the surface, the demon army looks very powerful, much stronger than Lu Guo.

​​

In fact, the exiled land in the Western Wilderness is extremely wide. This time, in order to invade the two countries, all the elites of all ethnic groups have been selected.

​​

The Lu country and the Sui country were only small countries in the outlying regions of the Zhou Dynasty, and their population bases were not as large as those in the Western Wilderness.

​​

In addition, after the nobles of these two small countries enjoyed 10,000 years of peace, they all spent their lives on a pile of resources. Before the war, they were tossed by demons again, and their vitality was severely damaged.

​​

This caused the two countries to appear so vulnerable in front of the army of demons.

​​

On both sides of the Jiehe River, along with these migrating demons, there is also an army of 100,000 people. It is not as elite as the previous demon army, but it should be enough to maintain the stability of the territory and increase troops to attack the southern border of Lu State.

​​

Zhang He got the news of the massive migration of demons right away. He knew that with his current power, it was already the limit that he could defend half of the Lu Kingdom.

​​

In the future, it will not be easy to deal with the constant invasion of demons.

​​

Zhang He could only recruit 100,000 militiamen from the rear again and send them to the front to fight.

​​

Now, apart from the militia, he really can't draw a soldier or a soldier.

​​

After this period of continuous fighting, as long as the subordinates have cultivation, including civilians and caravans, they have been recruited to the front line.

​​

After a large number of militiamen were recruited, they were sent to the front line of the war before they had time to practice.

​​

In this kind of large-scale war, in addition to the militia, a large number of civilians must be recruited to help transport materials.

​​

So much so that since the war began, the number of tenants who farmed the land has also decreased.

​​

Fortunately, the application of zombie coolies in Heishui County has been very skilled, replacing a lot of manpower.

​​

War is not just a competition of pure force, it is also related to the comprehensive strength of the two sides in terms of productivity, economic base, population, and system.

​​

Even in the Immortal Cultivation World, the same is true.

​​

Zhang He's Heishui County has a relatively weak foundation, and after several years of war consumption, it will drag itself down.

​​

Zhang Hezheng mobilized all the remaining forces and stood guard on the border, waiting for the army of demons to attack.

​​

As the coach of the 2000 Flying Cavalry Army this time, Meng Sheng came to pacify the demons in Sui and Lu. He originally thought that he could finally show his ambitions.

​​

Who would have guessed that His Majesty had dispatched another civil servant this time, even if he sent one more civil servant, he even became his immediate boss.

​​

Originally, I thought I could show off my skills, but the idea of ​​Tian Gao letting the birds fly was gone, and my heart was full of grief and helplessness.

Meng Sheng glanced at Feng Zhen who was flying in the middle of the team. Although the opponent was a civil minister, he didn't dare to neglect him at all.

​​

Feng Zhen was a master in the early Nascent Soul, and he could easily kill a monk like himself in the early Nascent Soul.

​​

"Master Feng, according to the news, there is another hundred miles ahead, which is Lule City. There are 10,000 monsters stationed in Lule City."

​​

Feng Zhen sat on the back of a huge iron-winged bird and bowed his hands to Meng Sheng who was in front of him.

​​

"General Meng, I don't understand the matter of commanding the war, so I don't get involved. It's up to General Meng to decide everything."

​​

Feng Zhen's visit this time is not just a battle with demons, he hasn't paid attention to the mere demons.

​​

Before he came, he had been instructed by His Majesty that he wanted to take down the countries of Lu and Sui and become the immediate territory of the royal family.

​​

When the Great Zhou Dynasty was founded, the royal family owned a lot of resources and territory.

​​

But in the history of more than 10,000 years, due to various reasons, the treasurer has less and less resources in the hands of the royal family. Instead, some princes who have been enfeoffed have become more and more prosperous.

​​

Now the various princes can annex each other, and some of the stronger ones have more and more resources.

​​

But what is very depressing is that the eyes of everyone in the world are fixed on the royal family. What the princes can do, the royal family cannot.

​​

If the royal family followed the example of the princes and annexed other princes at will, it would definitely lead to the danger of everyone in the world.

​​

In the end, the royal family may become the public enemy of the princes of the world.

​​

But now the situation in Lu and Sui countries is different.

​​

In these two countries, the original rulers have been wiped out by demons, and the original aristocratic systems have all collapsed. Both countries have now fallen into the hands of demons.

​​

In this case, the royal family sent troops to maintain the territorial security of the Great Zhou Dynasty and to recover the lost land resources.

​​

They did this to safeguard the overall interests of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and to fulfill the responsibility of a royal family, no one can say anything.

​​

Moreover, this place is remote and unobtrusive, far away from the many eyes and ears in the Central Plains~www.wuxiahere.com~, which is just suitable for the royal family to quietly cultivate power here.

​​

This is His Majesty's trust in him. Now that the royal family is declining, if he can manage the Sui and Lu countries well, he may become a famous minister of Zhongxing in the Zhou Dynasty in the future.

​​

As for the details of commanding the army to fight, professional things should be left to professional people.

​​

He only needs to control the people who lead the troops.

​​

Feng Zhen was still riding on the back of the iron-winged bird, thinking that Meng Sheng had already arranged the task of attacking Lu Lecheng.

​​

The iron-winged bird is a large bird monster with a history of more than 10,000 years of artificial breeding. It is huge in size, fierce in temperament and durable in endurance. Many countries use the iron-winged bird to form flying cavalry.

​​

The Dazhou royal family has a total of 5,000 flying cavalry, which are the backbone of the royal family. This time, in order to regain the Sui and Lu two countries, they sent 2,000 cavalry at a time.

​​

It can be seen that the royal family attaches great importance to this matter.

​​

At a distance of one hundred miles, the flying cavalry had reached the outside of Lule City in just two quarters of an hour while keeping their formation intact.

​​

The demon garrisoned in Lule City faced this sudden flying cavalry army, and immediately a Jindan demon flew into the air with more than a thousand demons, and the remaining demon army in the city was also rapidly gathering.

​​

Just in the face of more than a thousand demons, only one hundred troops flew out of the flying cavalry army, and they rode the iron-winged birds to form a sharp cone formation and rushed towards the demons.
