Chapter 104 Trading ([-])

At this moment, seeing these tigers being driven into the training ground one by one by the soldiers, Lu Cheng felt relieved.

After resolving the matter, Lucheng took out the last mid-level soldier training camp.

The reason why the previous training camp was not used is also related to the fact that the recruitment has not been completed.

This time, Wuyang City recruited a total of 600 soldiers, and the speed of recruiting so many people at one time was naturally slower.

From September [-]nd of the second year of the new calendar until yesterday, that is, September [-]th of the second year of the new calendar, it took a full fifteen days to recruit all these recruits.

This still uses some coercive means, otherwise, the speed will be slower.

After the recruitment is completed, these recruits are first arranged into the garrison for some simple queue training, but this time will not be very long. According to previous experience, for some high-quality recruits, five days is enough.

Then the next step is the most important physical training, which is also the highlight of this time, and it is also a watershed.

Some recruits who performed well in the queue training will have the opportunity to enter the intermediate training camp for training, and some with better talents can even increase their force value to [-] points in a dozen days.

According to the time, it is the right time to set up the training camp at this time.

Holding the token in his hand, Lucheng glanced at the four military camps in front of him, and finally chose to build them on the original site.

Because of the carrier, there was no movement during construction, and in Lucheng's line of sight, only a very faint beam of light flashed by.

After the construction was completed, Lucheng ordered the soldiers to guard it, and at the same time strictly prohibited anyone from approaching.

When everything was over, Lucheng turned around and rushed to Iron Smelting Division.

Since the iron smelting workshop was built, Lucheng hadn't been to the iron smelting department, and at this time, it happened to go to investigate the matter of building the wolf armor.

And just as Lucheng was going to Iron Smelting Division, Wen Shao and his party were also rushing to Wuyang City.

Wen Shao is no stranger to Wuyang City. After all, the Shen family caravan also has its own intelligence system, although it is only a branch in Yizhou, and its strength is not strong.

But the battle in Wuyang City some time ago was really conspicuous, and such a big movement naturally couldn't escape the "intelligence eyes" of the Shen family caravan.

And this time, after "abandoning" the Yellow Turban Army in Zizhong County, Wen Shao did not choose other forces, but chose Wuyang City for a reason.

In Wen Shao's heart, Wuyang City's strength is not weak, and it is also a top-notch existence in the surrounding counties.

According to previous intelligence, Wuyang City now occupies the entire southern part of Wuyang County, with a sphere of influence of 30 square kilometers and a population of [-] under its control.

This is no longer a small force.

But hearing is believing, seeing is believing, Wen Shao naturally will not bet all his belongings on Wuyang City.

At this time, I was also in the mood to explore.

After walking for several hours, Wen Shao and his party really entered the sphere of influence of Wuyang City.

Here, Wen Shao deliberately slowed down, and turned to observe. It was nearly [-] kilometers away from Wuyang City.

It is regarded as the edge of Wuyang City's power, so the control power is naturally not that strong. Anyway, here, Wen Shao did not see the elite of Wuyang City, the wolf cavalry.

After walking for a while, Wen Shao saw a village. The size of this village was not small, and it was clear at a glance from the surrounding wooden fences.

There are about a hundred houses here alone. If calculated in this way, the population of this village should not be less than 500 people.

After stopping by this village for a long time, Wen Shao was a little surprised. Why didn't Wuyang City relocate all these people? Isn't it afraid of being plundered by other forces?

With the defensive capabilities of this village, dozens of elite soldiers can easily breach it. Isn't this giving up precious population resources in vain?
In Wen Shao's mind, the current population is considered a scarce resource. In Wuyang County, the total population may be around one million. This is still the current situation.

You must know that Wuyang County has not yet been unified. Once the war starts, more people will die. Even if Wuyang County is unified by then, the entire population will not be very large, maybe not even 100 million.

And a population of 100 million is far from enough for those counties in Shu County.

Any county in Shu County has a population of more than 500 million, and the population of some large counties even exceeds 1000 million.

What kind of concept is this? This is ten to one, such a huge disparity, how to resist at that time.

Although Wen Shao doesn't understand military affairs, he also knows a truth. In the end, any power will compete with population.

Don't talk about anything if you don't have a population. Doesn't Wuyang City not understand this truth?
With doubts, Wen Shao continued to walk forward, and after walking another two kilometers, he finally found a village that had been moved as a whole.

The population of this village is also quite large, and it seems that it has even reached a thousand people.

At this time, these people were gathering at the entrance of the village, and when they saw their group coming, they all looked vigilant.

After a while, an elder came out from the crowd, followed by several young and strong.

Seeing this, Wen Shao hurriedly stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "I disturbed my husband, but it was Shao's fault. I hope you will forgive me."

Perhaps seeing Wen Shao's good attitude, the old man didn't say much, nodded to Wen Shao, got up and returned.

Seeing that the old man didn't want to talk to him, Wen Shao would not go forward to ask, after all, he was rude first, and it was considered good that the other party didn't drive him away.

Then bowed his hands to the old man's back and saluted, Wen Shao ordered everyone to back off, and did not stop until they reached a safe distance.

Looking at the old man's back at this time, Wen Shao couldn't help showing a trace of thought.

These people were obviously going to Wuyang City, and during the whole process, they didn't even see a single soldier in Wuyang City, it was completely spontaneous behavior.

This scene also aroused the curiosity in Wen Shao's heart. From this point alone, we can see the attraction of Wuyang City. Otherwise, no one would abandon the village that they finally built and go to a strange place. place.

Because there, you don't know what you will encounter, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is between the two.

Moreover, it is still affected by conscription, taxes, and labor. To start over, even the status and interests that many people have established in the village may disappear.

"Maybe it's not just for safety?" With a murmur, Wen Shao became more and more curious about Wuyang City.
