Iron mines.

The soldiers of Xiliang around the iron mining area can be said to be strictly guarded. Arrow towers are built high in the mining area, and the archer is on the top. If an enemy appears, they will immediately send out news.

Swordsman and long spear formed a patrol team, patrolling around the iron ore area day and night, and the troop that came was always under their surveillance.

Li Mu didn't think about attacking. His first task was to protect the iron ore area. Iron ore is very important. There are still a lot of soldiers in the Xiliang camp without weapons. They need iron ore.

In the forest, the five hundred soldiers from the Black Tiger City walked in the vast forest for seven days. The light in the dark forest was not good, and the light rain in the past few days made the light in the forest even darker. .

The leader of these 500 people is the Third Army of Black Tiger City, the first battalion battalion leader Meng Xuan, and an expert from Yixingmen, whose strength is similar to that of third-rate Martial Artist.

"Campmaster!" The soldier in black leather armor with drops of water on his body and gasping for breath said to Meng Xuan: "Campmaster, where the iron mining area is located, there are a large number of guards, each with a dangerous terrain. There are arrow towers, and there are Swordsman and long spear soldiers in the patrol team. If you want to attack, I am afraid that you will not be able to attack for a while!"

Meng Xuan wiped the water droplets on his face: "The specific location of the iron ore area Have you found it?"

The soldier shook his head and said with some admiration: "The iron ore troops are very closely guarded, patrolling day and night, and they can't find a single gap!"

They scout The troops squatted all night, trying to find a gap between the soldiers of Xiliang, but after the night passed, the troops of the night vigil in Xiliang did not relax at all.

"Has the information been sent over there?" Meng Xuan thought for a while, and left this question to the City Lord to think about: "Order the troops to continue reconnaissance, and find a location to garrison!"

>

The soldier replied: "It has been sent to the city. There are several camps around the iron mine. There are streams passing by. I don't know if those places are within the reconnaissance of the iron mine defenders. If it increases, the other party should know the movement of our army, if it is detected by the other party..."

Meng Xuan said with a smile: "No problem, I wish the other party would kill you!"

The Black Tiger City troops chose a place to be stationed, and Li Mu and the others were more careful not to attack the iron ore area. The opponent was aggressive, and the impossible waved their hands. The defense around the iron ore area remained the same.

They have all learned the art of war, and they are lazy when preparing for a week.

While Li Mu and the others continued to guard closely, they sent people to the Xiliang camp to pass on the enemy's movements to the lord.

Azure Bamboo Village

Kill all 300 people in the White Lotus Religion, all lance soldiers and archers are upgraded to Level 1, and the level to Level 2.

The soldier upgrades all attributes plus one. Compared with Li Xiang's growth attribute, there is a big gap, but it is enough. As long as there are enough wars, Xiliang soldiers can grow up.

Zhang Qingyun rushed to Xuanshui Village with a hundred lance soldiers on the second day after the battle. He had been to Xuanshui Village and knew the location of Xuanshui Village.

Xuanshui Village is a good place. The Xuanshui Lake where Xuanshui Village is located is a key place for the Xiliang camp to unify the Northwest Pass.

Xuanshui Lake is one of the largest lakes outside the Northwest Pass. Zhang Qingyun doesn't know which is bigger between the giant lake and the Xuanshui Lake. The lake water of Xuanshui Lake nourishes the entire Northwest Pass. If it is not because the lake is too large , the lake surface will freeze in winter, coupled with the lack of places to build cottages in the lake, Xuanshui Lake may already be the world of water thieves.

Another point is that the main channel of Xuanshui Lake leads to Dagan. Every year, many people sneak back to Dagan through the main channel of Xuanshui Lake. Of course, those who can pass. The strength is generally above the second-rate, and those below the second-rate are buried in the Xuanshui Lake and become food for the fish and shrimp at the bottom of the lake.

The sailors of the Great Wall Legion don't eat dry rice!

However, they took the Xuanshui Village from the Xiliang camp and built a shipyard with the powerful craftsmen of the Xiliang camp. Only sailors, not to mention the Great Wall Legion,

can dominate the forces around Xuanshui Lake without any problem.

Zhang Qingyun is all about Xiliang at this time. This is his career. He has finally met a potential master. Even if he returns to work in this life, he has to make a career outside the Northwest Pass.

Zhang Qingyun left, Li Xiang rectified Azure Bamboo Village, some people in Azure Bamboo Village will be sent to iron ore mining, and the remaining half will stay in Azure Bamboo Village to work.

In Xiliang, except for the civilians in Xiliang, everyone else is his captive, Li Xiang, the captive has to work for him, and the same goes for the people who will be captured in the future.

Xiliang implements a very strict military control system. Li Xiang knows that only in this way can he suppress these strongmen who have been expelled from Dagan. cultivation reveals the existence of True Qi.

These are all good coolies, just as Xiliang is short of manpower at this time, the road between the iron ore area, the giant lake and the Xiliang camp.

On the 3rd day after the battle, Li Xiang left with fifty Swordsman, all the archer and lance soldiers stayed in Azure Bamboo Village, and there were one hundred prisoners who went north with Li Xiang.

In the face of Zhang Qingyun and these people, they will not resist, and they will definitely be restless, but in the face of Li Xiang, who is not much different from the butcher in their eyes, they dare not say much. They saw too many scenes of Li Xiang killing people.

Li Xiang was also very happy. He took these people, pushing a cart full of food, little by little back to the Xiliang camp.

The Xiliang camp is also making every effort to transport food. The amount of food in the warehouse has increased, and the burden on Li Yi's heart has also decreased.

Now the Xiliang camp needs a lot of food, and they don't need to transport food in the south. The iron ore area consumes a lot of food every day. Usually, two meals a day are enough for the Xiliang camp. But when it was time to prepare for battle, the soldiers had to eat three meals a day, and the soldiers on the night watch even had four meals a day.

They want to meet the war that breaks out at any time in the best state. The grain storage in the iron ore area is not much, so they need the support of the Xiliang camp.

Hundreds of people consume a huge amount of food every day, which puts a lot of pressure on the logistics of the Xiliang camp. Li Yi must make sure that the iron ore area has sufficient food without affecting the development of the camp. It is guaranteed that even if the Xiliang camp is surrounded, there will be enough food to wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

Fortunately, Li Xiang recruited hundreds of farmers before she left, otherwise she could only slow down the construction speed of the city wall and send most of the people who built the city wall to transport.

Li Xiang returned to the Xiliang camp on the fourth day. The speed of transporting food was a bit slow. On the way, he encountered soldiers who were rushing to deliver letters to the south. He knew that the enemy who wanted to snatch the iron ore area did not Li Xiang was also a little confused when he started, but he didn't know the reason until he returned to the Xiliang camp.

....

"Hundreds of people guarding?" The head of the Black Tiger City, who gave him the nickname Laughing Tiger Qian Fengru frowned: "The owner of the iron ore area Azure Bamboo Village , the total number of people in the whole village is less than 300 people, right?"

A plain-looking middle-age person dressed as a literati said: "Manager, the iron ore area may have belonged to the Azure Bamboo Village before. , but not necessarily now!"

Qian Feng glanced at the middle age person: "How to say?"

The middle age person took out a letter: "Not long ago, There is a message from the north that Xuanshui Village has been destroyed, and the force that destroyed Xuanshui Village is White Lotus Religion, Xuanshui Village has not survived, there are corpses everywhere, if the weather is still cold now, it may have been born everywhere!"

Qian Feng picked up the envelope and opened it for a while: "White Lotus Religion, no wonder it passed the news to us!"

The middle age person chuckled lightly: "It is estimated that other than White Lotus Religion, In addition, several forces around us will move!"

"That's the case!" Qian Feng narrowed his eyes: "Then send the rest of the third Legion out, the other troops will be on guard, those guys But it's just waiting for us to move!"

middle age person nods: "Yes!"

....

"A lot of red dots!" Li Xiang returned to the Xiliang camp, opened the small map and saw a large number of red dots on the map. These red dots did not gather together from time to time, but scattered everywhere like stars, walking aimlessly.

In addition to the red dots, there are also yellow dots, and the distance between some red dots and yellow dots is not very far.

Something is wrong. The red dot and the yellow dot are not the same faction, which means that there are at least two factions scattered in the forest.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Li Yi was in a daze before leaving, a little puzzled.

Li Xiang heard Li Yi's voice and withdrew from the minimap: "How much food is in the camp now?"

Those people must all be killed, although the Xiliang camp will sooner or later It was found, but Li Xiang didn't want it now.

"250,000 units!" Li Xiang went back and forth, more than ten days later, the grain harvesting on the Juhu Lake was almost the same, and the second sowing had already begun.

There is still a lot of food from the giant lake that has not been brought back.

Li Xiang opens the town center, in the Xiliang camp he can operate the town center, recruit 700 peasants, and 70,000 units of grain are disappeared.

"I have recruited 700 peasants to bring all the food from the giant lake camp, and all the 100 captives I brought over to you, and I will do my best to transport the food!"

Li Yi didn't know what happened to Li Xiang, nodded didn't speak, and heard Li Xiang continue: "City wall speed up, build another 300 lances, and transfer 300 from Juhu Camp. The militia is back, and the war is about to begin!"

With so many scouts around, the reason why the troop stayed and didn't kill them immediately was probably because they and the others were waiting for reinforcements.

As soon as the other side's reinforcements arrive, a big battle is waiting for the Xiliang camp!

Li Xiang must ensure that the number of soldiers in the Xiliang camp is not less than that of the other side!

"Is it the iron mine?" Li Yi asked.

Li Xiang said solemnly: "There are a lot of scouts around the camp. Although they haven't found the camp yet, I think they should be with the others. After the reinforcements arrive, the battle will begin!"

Li Yi also listened a little solemnly. The number of the opponent is close to 500, and they are still waiting for reinforcements, so the number of enemies facing this time is likely to be close to 1,000.

It's not that the Xiliang camp of 1,000 troops cannot be taken out, but once all 2,500 soldiers are transferred to the battlefield, the camps in other places are likely to be in danger.

The wild beast group on the side of the giant lake is back, and the number of wild beasts hunted every day on the farmland is no less than fifty. Those wild beasts are very interested in the crops in the farmland.

As the area of ​​farmland increases, the number of soldiers guarding the surrounding area also increases.

Therefore, it is impossible to transfer all the troops, then only recruit new peasants, train new militiamen, and let the previous militiamen turn into soldiers first.

After Li Xiang's instructions, he took a day off in the town center. In the early morning of the second day, Li Xiang and Swordsman dispatched, and the surrounding scouts needed to be dealt with.

For this reason, Li Xiang specially brought a long bow. The first element of being a scout is to run fast. If you don't run fast, how can you escape the enemy's attack.

So Li Xiang brings a longbow, no matter how fast you run, can a long arrow run faster?

The scouts roaming the forest did not notice that a group of hunters were hunting them.

Under the giant tree, a man in tattered green clothes was lying on a post. He didn't know why such a post appeared in the forest.

He saw no less than ten such outposts in the forest. When they were at first, he was quite frightened, thinking they had been discovered.

This place is so comfortable!
