After several days of continuous autumn rain, the weather has become cooler.
If the calendar is correct, winter will be in one month.
Today's winter is completely different from the winter two thousand years ago. Even though there are clouds of gloomy air, there are few evil ghosts and ghosts. Over time, these have become legendary existences.
Stepping on the morning dew, Zhang Yang returned to the royal city, climbed up the towering city wall and looked around. The royal city today has not changed much from four months ago. On the contrary, outside the royal city, there are three more extremely strong fortresses.
At this point, the peripheral defense system of the royal city has basically taken shape.
This system includes Nantianmen Fortress, Xifeng Fortress, North Beacon Tower Fortress, Dongshan Fortress and Southeast Tibetan Soldier Valley Fortress.
These five fortresses were the most proud work of the old man from Zhaozhou. Even after the completion of the five fortresses, he directly felt that as long as there were 30,000 soldiers, this royal city would never be breached.
Of course, Zhang Yang would not argue with the old man, because he also believed that the royal city was indeed unconquerable until the dragon vein spiritual field in the royal city withered and exhausted, and before more powerful force appeared.
"So, it is said that good fortune lies in disaster, and misfortune lies in blessing. The location where this royal city was built is too remote, which is very unfavorable for development. The transportation is inconvenient, and even large-scale land reclamation is not possible. But it is precisely because it is built in the high mountains. Among them, this defense is really the best in the world."
Zhang Yang couldn't help but praise that he came specifically to inspect the defense of the royal city, because just yesterday, the demon hidden dragon that turned on the war state reappeared after disappearing for four months, and according to the instructions sent by Wu Ya The scout said that now, millions of demons have gathered outside this mountain, completely sealing the mountain.
Hearing this news, Zhang Yang was relieved, because the total number of regular and combat-effective extraordinary demon army was less than 500,000, and they were all distributed in major battlefields for hegemony, so these million demons could only be The most rubbish mirage demon.
The other party sealed the mountain in this way in the hope of restricting his development. This showed that the demons were under great pressure on the front line, or were using troops and could not return support for a while.
This is a good thing.
However, he couldn't take it lightly, so he hurried back to make targeted arrangements.
"Lord, what we lack now is population and time. But even so, if the demons attack in a big way now, we can still defend for three to five years."
Wu Ya spoke from behind Zhang Yang. He was such a proud person, and now he was full of praise for this royal city, and he was even more polite to the old man Zhaozhou.
It is true that the construction of this royal city is amazing.
In the past, before the completion of the five fortresses, nothing could be seen. But since the completion of the five fortresses, the defense of the entire royal city has been integrated, both offensive and defensive. Anyway, Wu Ya admitted that he could not capture it.
"Wu Ya, your next task is the most important. You must ensure the smooth flow of official roads in the north, especially the North Beacon Tower Fortress. This fortress is a full two hundred miles away from the Royal City. Although it is a level 5 pass, it is related to the Royal City. There is no room for failure in our northern throat.”
Zhang Yang ordered that the North Beacon Tower Fortress was built in a very steep valley 200 miles away based on the official road built before. After the construction is successful, if the devil wants to attack the royal city, he must either climb Thousands of meters high cliffs, or this place must be attacked by force.
Therefore, Zhang Yang sent Wu Ya and his cavalry group to garrison.
At the same time, the old man from Zhaozhou was not idle. He led 1,500 craftsmen and was building Zhang Yang's first level 5 county town behind the North Beacon Tower Fortress (Zhang Yang could only build a level 3 county town for the time being, but because of Zhao The status of the state legendary master, so you can build level 5).
It is expected that the construction will be completed before winter, and it will be used to resettle the 10,000 refugees.
Then, in another four months, Zhang Liang will return from the trial world. If he succeeds, he will bring back 100,000 refugees and 20,000 recruits, all of which will need a place to resettle.
As for Wu Lei and Lei Ming, they are still training special units. It is expected that in eight months, the second batch of 500-man Panshi Heavy Infantry and 200-man heavy-armored Modao Captains will be trained.
Everything is on track, all that's missing is time.
"In that case, I will just take this last step!"
Zhang Yang made a decision in his heart. In the past four months, he had absorbed the essence and blood of the golden elixir stage demon cultivator and cultivated 99 natal auras. He was only one step away from completing the job transfer task.
As long as he crosses this step, he will be above the transcendent, and he can go to trouble the demon hidden dragon. He hates this feeling of being constrained.
After sending Wu Ya away, Zhang Yang prepared to take the final step in the royal city, the last step he had been waiting for.
But just when he was burning incense and bathing, calming down, and getting everything ready, for some reason, he felt a sudden disturbing feeling in his heart, and then involuntarily, a picture of him being bound for the first time flashed through his mind. The vision of Xian Xia when he founded the village.
In the illusion, there was a ruins of yellow sand, with nothing left.
"puff!"
After a mouthful of blood spurted out, Zhang Yang felt that the boredom was reduced a lot, but his heart was very panicked.
Out of the blue.
"What the hell? I didn't do anything wrong. I haven't even established the foundation yet and I went crazy?"
Zhang Yang didn't know why, but at this time, the village order was reading "The Complete Book of Da Chu" again.
In the past few months, every five or six days, there will be a review of this village building order. Sometimes it is interesting, sometimes it is boring, but this time, for the first time, the emperor of Chu, Duan Jiusi, appears in the review.
"On the fifteenth day of the ninth month of the fourth year of the Calamity, I felt depressed, so I read the "Complete Book of Da Chu" and came across the biography of the Emperor of Da Chu. In a few words, he said: When the Emperor of Chu, Duan Jiusi, was very naughty when he was young, there would always be strange people who claimed to be mountain gods. They would play with the Emperor of Chu and say, "I can help you conquer the world, so why do you thank me?"
After reading this message, Zhang Yang's hands and feet felt cold and his breathing almost stopped. He finally realized what the annoyance in his heart and the strange illusion represented.
"Mountain God?"
"Zhao Xianyu?"
"I love you, uncle!"
"You dare to mess with me?"
Taking a few deep breaths, Zhang Yang calmed down quickly, and then began to think about the whole story.
First of all, was the guy who claimed to be the mountain god that Da Chu Emperor Duan Jiusi met when he was a boy, was Zhao Xianyu? It’s hard to be sure, but if Zhang Yang remembers correctly, when the mountain god Zhao Xianyu was first sculpted, his appearance was that of Duan Jiu (for a while, Zhang Yang mistakenly thought it was Zhao Xiaoer).
So, was it a coincidence that Zhao Xianyu found Duan Jiusi
Secondly, the rise of Duan Jiusi coincided with the first Qianlong Zhan. He was able to defeat all his opponents in the end. Of course, it was because there were endless human heroes at that time, but it was too dreamy. In addition, his dynasty was too short and insufficient. It was destroyed in three hundred years.
This is the second doubt.
Thirdly, Zhang Yang did not think that his village civilization could last for 2,200 years. He only thought that it would last for 1,000 years. He himself also had this confidence, so he was giving Zhao Xianyu and Lame Robin When setting up a dilemma, the maximum limit given to them is one thousand years.
Therefore, from this point of view, as long as Zhao Xianyu is not killed in the predicament, he will have the ability to return to this world and find the village civilization left by Zhang Yang.
There is no doubt that civilizational struggle for hegemony and civilizational invasion are the same thing.
Fourth, Zhao Xianyu is essentially a god of incense and fire. He borrowed Duan Jiu’s form and took shape with the divine power of incense. However, he is not Duan Jiu. He belongs to the divine race. Assume that there is such a person in the village founding order system. In terms of racial settings.
Therefore, Zhang Yang never expected Zhao Xianyu to be forever wary of him and always grateful. That was unrealistic.
"To sum up, I can boldly assume that my village civilization can actually last for a thousand years. It should have perished in the first Qianlong Zhan, but in the end, Zhao Xianyu added fuel to the flames, allowing Duan Jiusi to dominate the world and end Hidden dragons fight for hegemony, and then my village civilization can continue."
"So, why did Zhao Xianyu do this? If he has already controlled Storm City, he is either invading the world for profit, or he is standing idly by. Is he doing it to repay me? This result is the most childish."
"It's impossible. Zhao Xianyu has already made a clever plan. He knew that I would return as the king, so he set up an ambush in advance so that he could slap me in the face and let me, the king, die—"
Zhang Yang's face suddenly turned ugly. Speaking of magical calculations, Zhao Xianyu's divination skills can really be called magical calculations.
"Uh-huh!"
Suddenly a golden light flashed in his eyes, but a series of messages were forcibly mapped out.
"Qianlong 001 unified Xuelin County in the North. This is the first Qianlong in the Qianlong Contest to completely unify the county. King Qi +2."
"Qianlong 001 unified Changfeng County in the North, King Qi +2."
"Qianlong 001 kills the demon Qianlong 059, King Qi +1."
"Qianlong 001 kills the demon clan Qianlong 810, King Qi +1."
"Qianlong 001 kills the murderer Qianlong 085, King Qi +1."
"Qianlong 001 has 20 King Qi and announced the establishment of the Great Chu Empire. Qianlong 001 has removed the Qianlong number and is named Duan Jiushan. He is currently in the human camp."
"Emperor Duan Jiushan of the Great Chu Empire consumed a Purple Hope Fragment to spread the message to all remaining hidden dragons in the world that if they surrender, they will live, but if they resist, they will die!"
"Friendly reminder, since your identity is not Qianlong, you cannot obtain the original document."
—
Zhang Yang suddenly smiled, this information came so timely.
It’s Da Chu again, Duan Jiusi, Duan Jiushan, Duan Jiu, haha, Zhao Xianyu, you’re from the Gobi! No wonder the price for Duan Jiusi's summons among the historical figures he wanted to summon was actually 23 points of King Qi. He said that something was wrong, so that's it.
But what does this guy want
In the first Qianlong fight for hegemony, Zhao Xianyu saved Zhang Yang's village civilization, and then created a calendar, invented writing, and even created the Great Chu Complete Book and so on.
At first glance, it seems that this person is completely one of our own, and he is a great contributor to civilization.
Now, in the second Qianlong Battle, this guy shows up again, using the same routine.
This guy can't really be repaying a favor.
"No, he is raising pigs! Taking advantage of his ability to lock in this world, he is raising pigs as a dragon crossing the river, raising a civilized pig! When the pigs become fat, it will be time to invade and kill the pigs!"
Zhang Yang finally roared in a low voice.
