Online Game: Me, with Unparalleled Comprehension

Han Yufeng walked at the front, closely following Wu Feng.

Zhao Yu'e and Sun Yujiao brought up the rear in the middle of the group, calling out from time to time to let the people behind them catch up.

The line was quite long, with at least a hundred people from front to back.

After walking for half an hour, the outline of Wohu Mountain came into view.

Wu Feng quickened his pace and led the team up the mountain.

The guards on the watchtower saw him from afar and quickly opened the gate of the village.

Wu Feng walked through the village gate, stood in the open space, and looked back.

The group filed in along the mountain path, with Han Yufeng at the front. Once inside the village gate, she stepped aside to let the others in.

Zhao Yu'e and Sun Yujiao counted the number of people at the back, and only followed in after the last person entered the village gate.

Mu Lingyun walked quickly over from the training ground and saw that Wu Feng was followed by a large group of people.

Wu Feng said, "Let's make some arrangements."

Mu Lingyun responded and turned to arrange accommodations.

Wu Feng turned to look at Han Yufeng and the other two: "Come with me."

The three followed him across the open space, past rows of wooden houses, and arrived at the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

Wu Feng walked in and sat down in the main seat, gesturing for the other three to sit as well.

Han Yufeng sat down on the left, Zhao Yu'e next to her, and Sun Yujiao sat beside her.

Wu Feng leaned back in his chair and glanced at the three of them: "From today onwards, the three of you will be leaders in the mountain stronghold. I'll arrange the specifics later. If you're not assigned any tasks, you'll be responsible for guarding the stronghold."

The three men clasped their hands in a salute: "Yes, Chief."

Wu Feng nodded and said nothing more.

Footsteps sounded outside, and Mu Lingyun walked in and stood next to Wu Feng.

"Boss, the arrangements for the new recruits have been made."

"Alright, take these three leaders downstairs and arrange their accommodations." After speaking to Mu Lingyun, Wu Feng looked at Han Yufeng and the other two, "You will temporarily lead the original team to be responsible for patrolling and guarding the stronghold. You can arrange the specific shifts yourselves."

After Wu Feng finished speaking, the others nodded in agreement.

"By the way, I might have a guest coming over in the next few days, so be careful not to hurt him," Wu Feng said to the group.

"Yes, boss." The men nodded.

"By the way, Lingyun, have Xiong Batian and the others returned?" Wu Feng asked Mu Lingyun.

"They're back, Chief. They cleared out ten small mountain strongholds and brought back over five thousand units of wood and stone, seven thousand units of grain, and two thousand taels of silver. There are also quite a few other supplies. They're resting in the courtyard now. Shall we call them over?" Mu Lingyun replied to Wu Feng.

"No need, you can all go down too." Wu Feng waved his hand, and the group got up, responded, and left the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

After watching the group leave, Wu Feng opened the list of bandit strongholds.

A semi-transparent light curtain unfolded before my eyes.

The wood and stone are almost all used up.

In the inventory column, there are less than 300 units left in the timber column, and the stone column is about the same, with just over 200 units left.

There is still a considerable amount of grain, with over 40,000 units maintaining the supply.

He flipped down a page, and a list of buildings popped up.

The farmland section is at level seven and is currently upgrading to level eight. The progress bar is more than halfway done, and it should be ready in another hour or so.

Quarries also upgrade from level seven to level eight, just like logging camps.

The upgrade progress of the three buildings is about the same, and Sun Mingyuan and his team have indeed not been slacking off.

Wu Feng looked at the numbers and nodded slightly.

With someone skilled in internal affairs in charge, the speed of building upgrades has indeed increased considerably.

He's now leveling up from level seven to level eight, and the progress bar is moving faster than he expected.

He continued scrolling down.

In the housing section, it's level four, followed by a parenthesis—(3828/4000).

The population limit is 4,000, and more than 3,800 people have already moved in. It's almost full.

There have been too many people surrendering these past two days, and the housing situation is a bit inadequate.

Once housing prices improve and the recruitment notices are used, the population can increase significantly again.

I glanced at the grain section.

The comparison between daily output and daily consumption shows positive growth.

The daily grain production exceeds the daily food consumption by two thousand units.

Once farmland is upgraded to level eight, yields can be increased further, resulting in even greater positive growth.

Wu Feng closed the output column and focused his attention on the demand for building upgrades.

The upgrade requirements for the Giant Mountain Stronghold are: city walls level 10, city gates level 10, gathering hall level 10, warehouse level 10, and training camp level 10.

All five buildings must reach level 10.

He twitched the corner of his mouth.

The city walls and gates are easy to build; just spend money and resources to build them up.

Upgrading the Hall of Gathering Righteousness and the Warehouse is also acceptable, since one is in charge of affairs and the other is for storing goods, so it wouldn't be a waste.

But the training camp requires level 10?

He's only at level 5 in his training camp right now. The resources he'd need to invest to reach level 10 would be enough to build several more buildings.

Moreover, the benefits of upgrading the training camp are that the training speed is faster and the bandits trained are of a higher level.

It's not very useful in the short term.

Wu Feng squinted and thought for a moment, then tapped his fingers lightly twice on the armrest.

There's no rush to upgrade the counterfeit level.

Anyway, he built this mountain stronghold just as a temporary base.

Once we take Yingzhou City and have a city, who will still live in the mountain stronghold?

The city walls are higher than those of the mountain stronghold, the city gates are thicker than those of the mountain stronghold, the city can accommodate more people than the mountain stronghold, and the city will develop better than the mountain stronghold.

At that time, Qingfeng Village will at most be an outpost, or it may simply be abandoned.

It's not worth spending a lot of resources to upgrade your copycat site now.

We should continue to focus on resources and population growth.

Only with more resources can we support an army.

Only when the population is large enough can soldiers be recruited.

These two things are the key.

As he was thinking, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the entrance of the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

A young bandit rushed in, panting, and bowed: "Boss, a group of people claim to be your guests. The leader is a man named Li Hu. Chief Mu sent me to inform them."

Wu Feng snapped out of his thoughts and glanced at him: "Let them in. Take them to the Hall of Gathering Righteousness."

The bandit responded, turned and ran out, his footsteps fading into the distance.

Wu Feng leaned back in his chair and tapped his fingers twice on the armrest.

They arrived quickly.

I just said I was on my way, and now I've arrived.

He stood up, walked to the entrance of the Hall of Gathering Righteousness, and glanced outside.

Most of the bandits were at their posts.

The guards on the watchtower paced back and forth, their eyes fixed on the mountain path outside the village gate.

Not long after, a group of people walked over from the direction of the village gate.

Leading the way was Li Hu, dressed in a gray outfit, his back ramrod straight, taking large strides.

He was followed by more than fifty people, dressed in various colors, including tight-fitting clothes, cloth clothes, and a few wearing leather armor.

The line was neat and orderly; no one whispered or looked around, everyone moved in unison, and it was very quiet.

Wu Feng looked at the group of people and narrowed his eyes slightly.

His discipline was many times better than that of his bandits.

Mu Lingyun led the way, bringing the group to the entrance of the Hall of Righteousness. He then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Wu Feng and said, "Chief, the people have been brought."

Wu Feng nodded: "Ling Yun, you can go now."

Mu Lingyun responded and turned to leave with several guards.

Li Hu walked up the steps, glanced at Wu Feng, then turned to look at the Hall of Gathering Righteousness, and said with a smile, "Your place is developing really well."

Wu Feng stepped aside to clear the doorway: "Sit down and let's talk."

Li Hu led the fifty-odd people into the Hall of Gathering Righteousness.

The long table in the Gathering Hall was large enough, but it was still a bit crowded with more than fifty people sitting down.

Most people didn't sit down, but stood quietly behind Li Hu, their eyes scanning the entire hall before returning to their seats.

Wu Feng sat down in the main seat, and Li Hu sat down next to him.

Others either stood or sat.
