Chapter 94 Didn't It Say That King Bei Has Run Away?
As for those rumors about Beijun, Lu Chen, who was in the palace, naturally heard of them.

It is impossible for a convoy as big as the Wangfu to go south without rumors after being seen by the common people.

Lu Chen didn't pay too much attention to the rumors, he was already making preparations to resist the barbarians.

a few days later.

In order to allow the people in the north of Beijun to cooperate with the strong wall to clear the wilderness and transfer the population, the Beiwang Mansion directly issued a notice, telling the people that the barbarians will gather 30 cavalry to go south, capture Beijun, and establish a country in Beijun.

As soon as the announcement came out, it caused an uproar in less than half a month.

Not only the people of Beijun knew about this, but the whole Great Xia, and even other countries around Great Xia knew that the barbarians were about to go south.

Originally, the common people had already heard the rumors that the barbarians were going south when the Beiwangfu convoy went south. Now that the Beiwangfu directly issued a notice, it proved that the barbarians were indeed going south.

Some common people thought that even their king had escaped, and they would only die if they stayed in Beijun, so they fled to the south one after another.

Of course, there are also some people who are unwilling to leave the place where they have lived for generations.

In order to allow the common people to cooperate with the policy of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness, the Northern Prince's Mansion soon issued a decree again. All the common people who cooperated with the strong wall and clearing the wilderness will be exempted from agricultural tax for two years when they return to their original land after the war is over.

Originally, Lu Chen planned to use the policy of agricultural tax exemption to promote the planting of new crops, but there was no way, some ordinary people in the north refused to leave, so they could only take out this policy in advance.

If under such circumstances, those ordinary people still refused to leave, Lu Chen didn't plan to bother.

He is still busy training the new army now, and he can't put all his thoughts on fortifying the wall and clearing the field.

early morning.

After Lu Chen got up, he glanced at the iceberg beauty in his arms.

It happened that Bai Qingqing was also looking at him, and Bai Qingqing always woke up before him.

Seeing Lu Chen staring at her, a blush appeared on Bai Qingqing's glamorous face, and she turned her head to look aside.

After Lu Chen's wife and concubine left, Lu Chen came to her bed every night. Her body and mind belonged to Lu Chen completely, but she still didn't dare to look Lu Chen in the eye.

Seeing Bai Qingqing's shy look, Lu Chen smiled slightly. After these days of groping, he already understood how to use the Dragon and Phoenix Yin-Yang Jing.

The function of the Dragon and Phoenix Yin-Yang Meridian is to speed up one's own cultivation, increase the speed of one's absorption of spiritual energy, and at the same time allow the woman to embark on the road of cultivation.

In other words, the Dragon and Phoenix Yin-Yang Classic is a dual practice method.

Lu Chen planned to bring Mu Zixuan and the others back after the barbarian war was over, and practice the Dragon and Phoenix Yin-Yang Sutra with them.

Although it is unlikely to become a fairy in this world with thin aura, it is still possible to let them live longer or maintain their youthful beauty.

At this time Lu Chen got up from the bed, he didn't plan to say good morning to Bai Qingqing today, he still had important things to do today.

After getting up, Lu Chen simply ate something, then rode to the new army camp.

When the common people in Yancheng saw Lu Chen riding a horse, they were extremely shocked and started discussing.

"Didn't it mean that the King of the North has escaped?"

"Yeah, I saw with my own eyes the princess and the others' carriage heading south."

"Then why is the King of the North still in Yancheng?"

"Could this be the Northern King's substitute?"

"How could it be a stand-in? I have met Bei Wang several times, and this is Bei Wang himself."

"From this point of view, the Northern King should have just sent his wives and concubines to seek refuge in the south, and he did not escape himself."

"I didn't expect the King of the North to be so strong!"

……

Listening to the common people's discussion, Lu Chen didn't pay much attention to it. He rode his horse to the new army camp specially to let the common people in Yancheng know that he had not left Yancheng.

Soon, Lu Chen came to the new army camp.

The new army camp is located outside the city. In order to facilitate the test of artillery, Lu Chen specially asked people to build the new army camp far away from Yancheng.

After Lu Chen arrived at the new army camp, Mu Changtian and his several important generals immediately came to Lu Chen's year before, "See you, my lord."

Lu Chen nodded slightly, and then asked, "Have you recruited all the new soldiers?"

Mu Changtian replied: "Going back to the prince, we have recruited all of them, exactly 1 people."

As soon as Mu Changtian finished speaking, Li Feng said, "My lord, I heard that the imperial court issued an order to expand the army in Beijun. Now Beijun can have a maximum of 15 soldiers. Why don't we take this opportunity to recruit more soldiers?"

When they reported the situation of the barbarians going south to the imperial court, the imperial court immediately issued an order to expand the army to the Northern Palace, but after so long, Lu Chen did not continue to recruit soldiers, and he did not seem to have any intention of continuing to recruit soldiers. This made Li Feng and the others feel a little puzzled.

It is an easy task for the imperial court to issue an order to expand the army. Everyone knows that Emperor Xia has been weakening the strength of the vassal kings. It is not bad to have a hundred thousand troops in Beijun.

If it wasn't because of the turmoil in Da Xia that the army could not be easily mobilized this time, it would be impossible for Emperor Xia to agree to issue an order to expand the army in Beijun.

This military expansion order is an opportunity for Beijun and Beiwang to quickly increase their strength.

But the king of the north did not act immediately.

Although the population of North County is small, it is not a big problem to recruit 15 soldiers.

Moreover, they are about to break out a war with the barbarians. If they can recruit another [-] new recruits in a short period of time, their hope of defeating the barbarians will be even greater.

After hearing Li Feng's question, Lu Chen smiled lightly, "There are not many soldiers, but fine ones."

"Even if another [-] recruits are recruited now, can you train these [-] recruits in a short time?"

"If they go to the battlefield, I'm afraid the barbarian cavalry will disperse them with a single charge."

"Let's not talk about the recruits, even the imperial army is often scattered by the barbarian cavalry when they face the barbarian cavalry. What do you think, General Mu?"

Having said that, Lu Chen's eyes fell on Mu Changtian. Now is the time to discuss business, so Lu Chen didn't call Mu Changtian father-in-law, but directly called him General Mu.

The reason why Lu Chen looked at him and said this was because Mu Changtian had fought against barbarians many times, so he was experienced.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mu Changtian said: "My lord is right, if the recruits are allowed to fight the barbarians head-on, there is a high probability that the barbarian cavalry will be wiped out in one charge."

Having said that, Mu Changtian changed the subject, "But my lord, these recruits don't necessarily have to fight the barbarian soldiers head-on, they can still defend the city."

They were the defenders in the first place, so there was no need to rush up and fight with the barbarian cavalry. Soldiers were needed to defend the city. Even if these recruits were not as effective as the cavalry, they could still play a great role in defending the city.

So Mu Changtian prefers to recruit more soldiers.

Lu Chen said at this time: "I understand what you mean, but don't worry, since the imperial court has issued an order to expand the army, I will naturally expand the army, but not now."

"And in a few days, this king will give you a surprise."

Hearing this, Mu Changtian and the others looked at each other, wondering what the surprise Lu Chen was talking about.

At this time, Lu Chen continued: "By the way, have you dug the cave that the king asked you to dig?"

Li Feng replied: "Go back to the prince, the digging has already been done."

Lu Chen immediately said: "Take me there."

Immediately, Li Feng and the others brought Lu Chen to the cave of the Artillery Battalion.

Seeing the cave in front of him, Li Feng really wanted to ask Lu Chen why he asked them to dig the cave, but in the end Li Feng held back.

Since the King of the North asked them to dig the cave, it must have worked. It is estimated that the King of the North will tell them what the cave is useful for later.

Lu Chen didn't hesitate either, he walked directly into the cave, and said as he walked, "You are all waiting outside, no one is allowed to come in without my king's order."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone stopped immediately.

After Lu Chen entered the cave, he directly opened the system backpack and took out a 122mm towed howitzer from inside.

Then Lu Chen glanced at the data of the howitzer.

[The caliber is 122 mm, the range is 18000 meters, the muzzle velocity is 690 m/s, the projectile weighs 33.4 kg, and the total weight is 3400 kg. 】
