Chapter 55 Victory
Wuyang City.

Lucheng is arranging the layout of the city defense. This time, two armies were sent to attack the two surrounding cities, which also caused the defense capability of Wuyang City to be greatly reduced.

Four of the original five generals were sent out, but now only Lu Fang is left.

Including the Yingyang army, there are only 142 ordinary soldiers left. Fortunately, there are still 51 special arms, and the defense force is not too weak.

But it is better to be cautious in everything. Wuyang City has already made too many enemies, and there are more than one family that wants to be unlucky for Wuyang City. Although there is no sign of unity, Lucheng knows that it will happen sooner or later.

Standing on the city wall at this time, looking at the obviously smaller figure below, Lu Cheng felt a little relieved.

After two expansions, the city wall has reached seven meters. It is completely different from the previous one in terms of senses, and it is not easy to break through.

Lu Fang was recruited casually, and after Lu Cheng ordered him to defend himself, he planned to go back.

At this time, two notification sounds suddenly came from the mind, but it was Guan Hai and Yu Dayou who broke through Liangcheng and Gucheng one after the other.

The footsteps also stopped, and Lu Cheng couldn't help showing surprise on his face.

But in my heart, I never thought that this battle would end so quickly.

The troops were dispatched in the morning, and it was over at noon. If the time lost on the road was removed, the real time to break the city was less than an hour!
And what came with the notification sound was the [-] luck points obtained after breaking the city.

With [-] luck points in hand, coupled with this big victory, Lucheng is also full of confidence.

Some of the original plans can now be implemented.

Recruiting refugees, training soldiers, buying food and grass, all kinds of ideas flashed through Lucheng's mind one by one. After thinking about it, he finally planned to discuss with Zhang Penghe about recruiting refugees.

Today's refugees are not as everywhere as they used to be. After more than half a year, the number of refugees has also dropped sharply. It can be imagined that the population becomes more and more precious as time goes by.

Now there are already signs of this, and a large number of refugees began to go north to the more "rich" Shu County.

The large forces in Shu County get together, and the number of refugees that can be absorbed is also large.

However, compared to other surrounding cities, Wuyang City is better. After all, Wuyang City will still serve potato porridge outside the city, and some refugees will not take risks to travel long distances.

But this is not enough. According to previous intelligence, the total number of refugees outside Wuyang City does not exceed 500, which is not enough to support the future development of Wuyang City.

Therefore, when attacking Gucheng and Liangcheng, Lucheng privately ordered Guan Hai and Yu Dayou to plunder the residents of the two cities.

Even if these people cannot be recruited, they still have to do so. If the sweet potatoes are harvested two months later and the food problem that plagued Wuyang City is solved, it will be troublesome to find that there are not so many people.

The decision was made, and Lucheng didn't hesitate. After a brief exchange with Zhang Penghe, he ordered him to start planning to recruit refugees.

Before that, Lucheng went to the trading market to buy [-] tons of sweet potatoes.

This cost [-] luck points, which is equivalent to destroying a city.

After ordering the Department of Agriculture to receive the sweet potatoes, Lucheng returned to the Lord's Mansion.

……

In the afternoon, Guan Hai and Yu Dayou returned to Wuyang City.

At this moment, the Lord's Mansion and Lucheng are checking the results of this battle.

Compared with the previous Fengcheng, this time because they chose to attack the city from the front, the loss of Wuyang City was much greater than before.

Among them, 50 people from the Dangkou Army killed a total of eight people and injured six people, including four with minor injuries and two with serious injuries.

And the two people who were seriously injured also basically lost their combat capabilities, which is equivalent to losing as many as ten people in the first battle.

This is the heaviest loss since the establishment of the Bandit Army, except for the attack on the Eight Banners soldiers.

You know, the Eight Banners soldiers back then were all special arms with a force value of up to 25 points, and they were much stronger than the soldiers in Gucheng in terms of combat power, experience, and even morale.

Even so, ten people were lost this time, which also showed the disadvantage brought by the attacking side.

In addition to the bandit army, the newly formed Yingyang army suffered even greater losses. Twelve people were killed in battle and seven were injured. Among the seven, five were seriously injured. Not only that, the deputy general Bian Xi also attacked the city. was injured.

"Hey, twenty soldiers died in this battle. They were all warriors."

Lucheng felt heavy after watching it, but he didn't get too entangled. People will die in a war, which is inevitable.

If this policy of preferential treatment of soldiers is not implemented, so many people have been lost this time, it is necessary to spend more thought, and it is certain that the hearts of the people will be unstable.

But the situation is slightly better at this time, but it can't be taken lightly, this reward has to be done immediately.

"This time it's all about the hard work of the officers and men. The rewards should not be delayed. The Department of Agriculture and the Department of Animal Husbandry must count the grain, grass, and livestock. Tomorrow I will reward you for your merits!"

"No!" Everyone solemnly replied after hearing this.

After dismissing everyone, Lucheng also began to check the harvest this time.

This time, two cities were broken, and Lucheng chose to destroy all of them. The two cities got three dropped items in total.

I don't know the reason, but this time the dropped items are much less than before. Both Zeyu City and Fengcheng got more than four dropped items before, but this time there are only three!

I was a little disappointed, but Lucheng still picked up the tokens and checked them one by one through the system.

The first two items are the Primary City Wall Expansion Token and the Primary Residential Construction Token, which were used directly by Lucheng after picking them up.

After using it, the number of dwellings increased by [-], making it [-], but when the primary city wall expansion token was used, it was found to be different.

The perimeter of the city wall has also increased by one kilometer to eleven kilometers as before, and the area of ​​Wuyang City has also reached 7.5 square kilometers, but the height has not increased.

Lucheng tried to get some hints from the system, but he couldn't find the answer after searching for a long time.

If he couldn't figure it out, he didn't think about it, Lucheng then set his sights on the last token.

Special Item—Bison Handling Token.

"It's actually a buffalo domestication technique?"

Lucheng was pleasantly surprised when he saw it. Lucheng had checked it in the trading market before, and this bison taming technique was worth [-] luck points.

At first I thought it was too expensive so I didn't buy it, but this time I got it directly.

With the wild ox domestication technique, cattle can be raised on a large scale in the territory. In the future, it can be used as beef cattle or as farm cattle.

This is of great significance to the territory, especially the cattle.

"Cows are the most urgent task in farming." As the main force of plowing, they have always been valued. In the Song Dynasty, a special law was even enacted to prohibit the slaughter of farming cattle.

With cattle in the future, the speed of reclaiming the fields will be much faster.
