Chapter 28: New Town

Therefore, Zhong Yu does not need to worry about the security issues on the south and east sides. He only needs to consider the security issues on the north and west sides.

At the same time, these two aspects are also the direction of his subsequent expansion and encroachment. Those barbarian tribes are weak and ignorant, closed and closed, scattered and numerous.

It is the best target for annexation and encroachment. The numerous tribes and endless population can provide the best resources for the development and growth of Zhong Yu's territory.

After referring to the surrounding terrain, Zhong Yu discovered that the Mengla tribe was located in the north of Luoyang. The terrain between the two places was gentle, and a straight road could be built between the two places. The Aisen tribe is located in the west of Luoyang. The terrain is relatively dangerous. There is a relatively dangerous mountain peak next to it. There is also a river below the mountain peak. Thinking of the north and west sides of the mountain, only the south side is free of any danger.

Zhong Yu decided to build two settlements at the original sites of the Aisen tribe and the Mengla tribe. These two residential areas will be built into small towns with a permanent population of 1,000.

The two towns will have walls up to five meters high and will be guarded by about 100 people. And build three small villages with a population of 500 around them, grow food to supply the consumption of these two small cities, and provide supplies along the road with Luoyang City.

The two small towns will be administratively divided into township-level administrative units, and the villages will be divided into pavilion-level administrative units. In addition, Luoyang City at the county level dispatched officials to manage these residential areas, thereby consolidating Luoyang City's control over them and deepening its influence on them.

But all this is a long story, Zhong Yu does not yet have so much manpower to build these two cities, and he has so many management talents to rule.

Therefore, he just left the population of the original two tribes and let them carry out preliminary city construction on their own, and he would immediately carry out a new round of expansion.

Enough people were plundered from tribes in other directions to slowly fill these two small cities and nine surrounding villages.

Some people were left to take care of and supervise the construction of the city by the people of the two tribes. Zhong Yu continued with his army and set out to annex those small tribes.

Heading all the way west, we were about ten miles away from the Aisen tribe. Zhong Yu met the first tribe on his way to annex. This tribe had about fifty people. Its strength was at the rear of the Edra Tribe Alliance, and it was considered a relatively average tribe.

There is a special phenomenon in the Edra Tribal Alliance, that is, in areas where the tribal frontier is close to the two major forces, all tribes there have a relatively large population, generally more than 1,000 people.

That's because there are constant wars there, and small tribes are either wiped out, merged, or take the initiative to join the big tribes.

At the rear, most of the tribes consisted of dozens or hundreds of people, and there were basically no tribes with thousands of people.

There is the private land of the leader of the Edra Tribe Alliance. Unless those small tribes are merged into the leader's tribe, they will always be small tribes. In this way, it will be convenient for the leader to control them and assemble the forces of those small tribes and the leader's army. The number of people will greatly suppress the tribes in other alliances.

As for other large tribes, their civilizations are relatively open, and they communicate more with each other. They are bound and restrained by each other, and they are threatened by the leader, so those large tribes do not dare to attack and annex the small tribes. They increase their strength.

However, no one could have imagined that there would be an anomaly like Zhong Yu behind the Edla Tribe Alliance, who could uncharacteristically use the system to summon countless soldiers.

Quickly annexing countless tribes and using the flesh and blood of those small tribes to develop and strengthen himself, Zhong Yu, who has a system, can obtain countless system figures who are loyal to him and possess various talents. And based on this, it grew rapidly.

The small tribe seemed a little surprised when they saw Zhong Yu's army of hundreds of people. They quickly summoned the tribesmen who were hunting outside and returned to the tribe, surrounding them with wooden fences that were only two meters high. Get up and defend.

However, they did not act too rashly or show too obvious hostility. After all, this was at the rear of the Edson Tribal Alliance, so there could not be an enemy army, and the surrounding tribes did not have such a large army. Can't afford such sophisticated weapons.

So they guessed that this army was probably from the tribal alliance. As for why they came here and they didn't receive any news, it was normal.

This army may have come from the north and not from Xidan, and the surrounding tribes were closed to each other and had little information to communicate with each other. My tribe didn't receive the news, which is normal.

Slowly, the army approached the small tribe. He stopped a mile in front of the tribe's gate, quickly arranged his troops in order, and set up a battle formation.

For a moment, looking out from inside the tribe, there was a forest of spears and banners everywhere. All the troops were dressed in uniform black and red war robes and holding very precious iron weapons. They looked full of power and murderous intent.

The tribesmen in the tribe could not help but remain silent, looking at the army outside with horrified expressions. Their hearts were full of fear, and restlessness permeated the tribe.

Slowly, a road separated in the center of this army. A man came up. The leader of the tribe knew this man. He was an elder of the Mengla tribe in the north. During previous hunting conflicts, when his tribe followed the Aisen tribe and fought against the Mengla tribe, they had met each other. noodle.

"Chief Andy, why don't you quickly open the door and welcome the army from the tribal alliance? Enter the tribe to rest. Do you think this is punishment from the leader of the alliance?" , Andy, the leader of this tribe, said.

When Andy saw that, the appearance of the elder, and what he said, he couldn't help but feel reassured. At least he was not an enemy. He was just responsible for the food of the three hundred people. His own tribe's food reserves were not much, and this time it happened again. It's going to cost a lot of money, and I don't know how to live the rest of my life.

"Elder Taini, don't be anxious. I will open the door of the department immediately. I saw so many troops before, and I was a little afraid that they were enemies. But now I understand, it turns out to be the army of the leader of the alliance. No wonder they are so mighty and majestic. I feel scared." Chief Andy thought in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said hello and said flatteringly.

"It's good that you know. I thought you didn't want to receive it. Where is the army under the leader of the alliance? Open the door quickly. If you tire those big shots, can you afford it?" Elder Taini said, but he didn't care. , but still did not forget to add insult to injury to him. And like a loyal bitch, he shouted at Patriarch Andy, which made Patriarch Andy feel secretly resentful.

Just like that, the gate of the tribe opened, and Chief Andy led his people out of the gate to welcome the entry of the army. They also arranged for a few people to prepare meals in the tribe's kitchen to entertain these troops, so that they could rest peacefully in the tribe and avoid causing any trouble.
