The wind is surging and the seasons are changing.
Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo led the Jiuyuan warriors to conquer the entire wild land, and they built roads wherever they went.
First, the prairie where Jiuyuan is located. From the southernmost cliff to the northernmost foot of Father God Mountain, Jiuyuan warriors occupied this land of one million square kilometers with a destructive attitude.
The dwarves chose to join Jiuyuan and became allies of Jiuyuan, helping the people of Jiuyuan to conquer the savage tribes around Father God Mountain.
Because of the strict instructions of the priest, the people of Jiuyuan established diplomatic relations with other tribes and other tribes in the name of promoting Jiuyuan culture, making friends with various tribes and tribes, making friends with each other, and even sending food and warmth, based on the purpose of not actively invading and attacking others. .
Just imagine, a weak tribe of savages with only dozens or hundreds of people cannot eat enough in winter and suffers every day. One day, they suddenly see a powerful tribe coming to your door with hundreds of warriors. They smile. It is said that as long as you are willing to join Jiuyuan and become Jiuyuan people, you will no longer have to worry about being hungry in the future, and when you have a house to live in, clothes to wear, and strong fighters to protect, how would you choose
Of course, there are also those who are stubborn or afraid to join. That’s okay. Jiuyuan people will build roads and hunt around your tribe. If there are other tribes around you, he will let you clearly see whether you join Jiuyuan or not. the difference.
After the road has been repaired, in winter, the people of Jiuyuan will bring abundant food, furs, etc. along the main road. They will ask you again if you want to join Jiuyuan.
Jiuyuan fighters wish someone would take the initiative to rob, because only in this way, they have a reason to let go and teach each other a lesson, and then turn all those who attacked them into prisoners of war and pull them back to work as coolies. Naturally, the force that robbed them will also be occupied by them by the way .
Yuan Zhan is very bad. Before the "friendly visit", he will send scouts to inquire about the power and strength of nearby tribes. If they are very weak, he will directly pull out thousands of people to let the other party see the strength of Jiuyuan. If it was a little stronger, he would send a dozen or twenty people with a lot of valuables such as food and furs to pass by the door of the house to lure them to take the initiative to rob, and then...
I have to say that this method is shameless but also very effective, especially in the face of weak forces with less than a thousand people.
In the later period, the prairie known as Jiufengyuan hardly had any established forces. Most of them were some savage tribes like the Awu tribe back then, and some slightly larger tribes only had three or four hundred people at most.
Jiuyuan needs population. Except for the establishment of military fortresses in some important areas in the original war, all other people will be pulled back to Jiuyuan as long as they are willing.
After subduing Jiufengyuan, Yuan Zhan began to focus on the large land to the east of Jiufengyuan and south of the Black Forest.
There are pigs, snake people, sun worshipers, haolas, red foxes...
In order to facilitate the capture of that land, Yuanzhan began to build a road around Qingyuan Lake to the Black Forest. This road was built according to the original route of the Yuanji tribe fleeing to Jiuyuan, and it was also the route provided by Yan Mo.
The road was paved from Qingyuan Lake to the Black Forest. During the period, Yan Mo went to visit the old Sama of the Maple tribe, and asked him all the questions he had encountered before, and the curse witch and Yu witch could not and refused to tell him. .
The old Sama was quite happy to see Yan Mo, and the two chatted a lot. Later, Yan Mo signed a slate contract on behalf of the entire Jiuyuan and Sama of the Feng clan that would never invade the Black Forest, and made it clear that if any Jiuyuan people If you stray into the Black Forest for more than 300 meters or take the initiative to harm the Maple Clan, you will be dealt with by the Maple Clan.
This stone tablet was later carved into a stele and stood at the west entrance where Jiuyuan connects with the Black Forest.
Seeing that Yan Mo was straightforward, Sama of the Feng family expressed generously, saying that the Feng family would not join Jiuyuan, but they would not take the initiative to invade Jiuyuan. Their Feng family did not want to leave the Black Forest at all, but if someone wanted to pass through the Attacking Jiuyuan, the Maple Clan will stop them and send a letter to Jiuyuan.
Yuan Zhan is very satisfied with this contract. Although it is a pity that the Maple Clan cannot become Jiuyuan's allies, the Feng Clan promised them not to let Jiuyuan's enemies pass through the Black Forest, which is equivalent to the entire Black Forest becoming a barrier for Jiuyuan. Out of friendship, Yuan Zhan secretly gave the Feng tribe a lot of cruel pig tribe leaders as food for their children without telling Yan Mo.
With the overall strength of Yuan Zhan and Jiu Yuan now, facing the Shi clan back then, it just feels like an adult fighting a child.
For these greedy and cruel tribes, Yuan Zhan always adopts lure wars. First, he sends food to some weaker tribes to show his wealth, but hides the powerful force that can protect this wealth.
The first ones to be fooled were the insatiable pigs.
The Xi tribe came fiercely, but the fall was only in a day and night.
The Red Fox tribe was the first to come to take refuge when they heard the news, and the weak and small tribe basically chose to merge into Jiuyuan on their own initiative. At this time, there was no strong concept of race and territory. As long as the other party could guarantee food and not treat them as slaves, and keep their witches, many small and weak tribes did not object to joining a large tribe, and were even willing to do so.
The matriarch of the worshiping sun tribe is very smart. She found that Jiuyuan's rise was unstoppable. In addition, their strength was too different from Jiuyuan. After hearing that joining Jiuyuan could improve the training method of divine blood ability, she didn't wait. Jiuyuan took the initiative to ask them, and took eight subordinate tribes including the Hao La tribe to join Jiuyuan.
The snake people who hide in the valley and can manipulate poisonous snakes didn't want to join Jiuyuan at first. Their environment and special abilities made their lives not too difficult, but when the snake people with snake tails appeared in front of them , this human snake-human race immediately surrendered.
After Yan Mo discussed with Yuan Zhan, Rang Hao led a thousand soldiers to stay on the land later called Hessen Plain to build a new city, mainly to manage and annex all the big and small tribes on this land.
The more threatening tribes such as the worshiping people were brought back to Jiuyuan to carry out Yan Mo's so-called brainwashing education.
Because of all kinds of external pressure and persecution, Jiuyuan's changes are almost the same day by day. Today, Jiuyuan is very different from five years ago.
Let’s talk about Jiuyuan City first. Her inner and outer city walls have been rebuilt, and they are more than twice as long as before in terms of height, thickness, and insurmountability.
The population of Jiuyuan is also increasing rapidly. The outer city, where there were not many people in the past, is now bustling with people on several major commercial streets.
There are many more villages outside the outer moat, where the fields are criss-crossed, and all kinds of fruits and crops are full of fields. Looking further into the distance, there are war beast camps that specialize in raising war beasts and mounts, and there are livestock camps that raise meat for food.
The inner city has become the world of power institutions and schools. The population of the inner city has not increased since five years ago, and the school has been expanding.
The school is divided into two campuses, occupying the north and south of the inner city. The south is called Jiuyuan Military Academy. Only Jiuyuan people can enter. It implements military management. Only 18-year-olds can enter the school, and the learning content is slightly different from the other school. .
The school in the north is called Zhanmo Academy. This academy has a very low entry threshold for Jiuyuan people. Regardless of your identity, race, or age, you can enter as long as you want to enroll, and the tuition for Jiuyuan people is free. Kindergarten classes under the age of 12 are divided into 12 grades, and from the fourth grade, they are divided into professional subjects.
Zhanmo Academy also accepts students from other tribes, tribes, and city forces. There is also no entry threshold, but the age must be over seven years old, and tuition fees are required.
Regardless of whether they are students from Jiuyuan or other forces, as long as they study well, they may get a scholarship. The scholarship not only provides free tuition, accommodation, and food expenses, but also provides annual training expenses according to the student's martial strength and divine blood level. Yuanjing coins range from five to twenty.
Different from the outside world that combines all fighters' strength and blood level into one, in Jiuyuan, people have become accustomed to separate the strength level and blood level, because the new warrior training method introduced by Jiuyuan Temple has broken the usual strength of fighters. After reaching the fifth level, it is difficult to have a limit for improvement.
Today, in Jiuyuan, fighters who can't arouse their divine-blood abilities can purely practice their martial arts. If they practice well, they can also beat the divine-blood fighters to the brim.
The blood fighters are usually weak before the third level, and they are considered to have relatively powerful offensive and defensive capabilities starting from the fourth level.
The wind in early summer blows over Jiuyuan City with a heat that cannot be ignored.
A young man with a simple and honest face who looked about sixteen or seventeen looked up to the south of Jiuyuan City, where there was a new mountain range covered with green bamboo forests and a majestic temple on the top of the mountain.
This towering mountain range that didn't exist before naturally originated from the hands of our powerful Jiuyuan leader.
The leader spent five years. Whenever he was free, he would run here to vent the surging energy in his body that was about to burst out.
In five years, he forcibly pulled out a mountain range with sharp peaks from the original flat ground.
This temple mountain range starts from the forest on the east side of the Red Salt Lake, crosses the Red Salt Lake, divides the Red Salt Lake into two, and extends to the forest on the west side.
This separated land, bounded by mountains, is known as a holy land to the south. Inside, there are people who face the old lair of Kunpeng Jiufeng, the family of Tiebeilong, the family of Yingzhao, the younger brother of Lord Jiufeng, and the new On the top of the mountain range, there is a temple where the most worshiped priests of the Jiuyuan people live.
The top of the temple mountain looks sharp, but in fact there is a large piece of flat land. The leader made thick fertile soil on it, transplanted a lot of trees, and manually dug out the lake on the mountain top. It seems like I can't wait to transfer all the good things to the top of the temple mountain.
The tender-faced boy scratched his face, feeling annoyed at the sight of this towering mountain range. It is so high that I have to struggle to climb up every time. Although I can ride Yingzhao, but the wind is strong on the mountain, and sitting on Yingzhao is not very comfortable.
Really not wanting to enter that empty, boring, and extremely pretentious temple, the boy turned around, changed direction, and walked towards the inner city.
In order to prevent people in the city from recognizing him, the young man put on a bamboo hat. There are many people wearing bamboo hats in the city, most of them are farmers and people who work outside for a long time. It became popular in the entire Jiuyuan City in one go.
When he arrived at the gate of the inner city, the city gate guards didn't ask him to show any proof. The outside of Jiuyuan City was loose and the inside was tight, and other people were not prohibited from coming and going during the day. will hinder.
There were quite a few people entering and leaving the inner city. When the young man walked through the crowd, he heard a few boys and girls who were about his age chattering together.
"Have you heard? The Yincheng of the Nine Great Upper City sent an envoy, and I heard that the person who came is their princess!"
"Ah, I've heard that too. Some people saw Her Highness the Princess and said that she is very pretty."
"What do you think the princess is doing here?"
"do not know."
"Could it be that you want to marry our leader? Just like the princesses of Tianzhu City and Luoque City said they want to marry us?"
The teenager touched his nose when he heard this. Yuan Zhan is very strong, and now there are more people who are eyeing him. In the situation that he does not want to start a war with Jiu Yuan yet, the nearby large-scale forces are mainly based on marriage, and they basically want to establish a relationship with Jiu Yuan first. , into Jiuyuan to find out the details of Jiuyuan's plan. Of course, what these forces are most interested in is Jiuyuan's red salt and new training methods.
