Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 503 Daily Life
In the next few days, the entire Luanfeng City was relatively calm, and returned to a normal life from the sad atmosphere. It is not that everyone is forgetful, but that everyone has buried this sadness deep in their hearts. After all, people are If you want to look forward, life still needs to move forward as usual.

In the past few days, everyone has been busy with their own affairs, but there is a little warm feeling.

But more people know that this short life is hard-won, and it is very likely that they will face a big war after a while.

As winter approaches step by step, the prairie people are more and more ready to move. Whether it is to consume the excess population or to plunder, the days are getting closer and closer. Every day, Chen Zheng, Shen Kuo and the others can always receive from the north. All kinds of news passed over.

The first thing that changed was the various business houses. In some important cities in the north where the two sides traded, the transaction volume began to drop sharply, and many caravans left in a hurry.

Some people may ask, isn’t it the best time to make money during a war? Why didn’t they stay and make money but ran away?
First of all, the first point is that such things as war money have to be earned with one's life. If one's life is almost gone, one should not think about the dream of war money.

The two sides will soon be at war, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more tense. Although many people say that war makes civilians go away, very few people can really do it.

And once the war starts, the nationals who stay in the enemy's camp are likely to be targeted for various reasons, and even die because of it. This is a very likely situation.

There is also the second point that making war fortunes requires strength and connections. You can’t just resell materials if you want to. This matter seems simple, but in fact there is a hidden danger.

People with small businesses should not think about it. Once a war starts, they will not be able to keep their goods if they have no strength. No one on Beiyan will do such a thing, but grassland people have done a lot. For those people, the grass on the grave must be a foot high now.

Moreover, war money is so easy to earn. If you ship some medicines and food and other normal transactions, it’s okay, but if you engage in small tricks, such as driving up prices, contacting enemy countries, etc., I’m sorry, once you are discovered If so, the day when your head will say goodbye to you will not be far away.

So except for the confident big merchants, the rest of the small and medium-sized chambers of commerce began to shrink, and instead of moving closer to the north, they began to go south. You must know that if the business suffers losses during the war, no one will admire you.

Especially the Green Crow Chamber of Commerce can no longer have a lot of activities. Their strength is not strong enough, and the road is not very peaceful. Hu Chun discussed with the three brothers and sisters of the Zhao family. Except for the activities of some chambers of commerce in the south, the activities in the north are all lurking. After coming down, he continued to inquire about news from the north for Chen Zheng.

The name of their Chamber of Commerce is true, but their real role is to provide information to Chen Zheng.

They went south to avoid disaster, who will inquire about the news?So they had no choice but to temporarily shut down the various transactions of the Crow Chamber of Commerce in the north, and began to lurk down, focusing on gathering intelligence.

Moreover, cities and villages close to the border have also begun to be more vigilant, and beware of traces of prairie people that may appear at any time.

The large-scale prairie people's team did not appear, such as the 3000-man team that Yan Xuelan wiped out before Tuo Lei was a large-scale team.

A dozen or dozens of scattered people have made some discoveries. These prairie people are often sent out for investigation. They enter Beiyan through various small roads and over mountains and ridges, and then observe the situation and report it to the outsiders. The prairie people's army guided the attack direction and provided intelligence.

Even if these people are eliminated, the next group of people will come. People are not precious to the two forces who are on the verge of war. Instead, they are not much different from grass and grass.

Many people are accustomed to the existence of these people. Fighting is useless, so let them see. Anyway, the arrival of these people means that the large army of grassland people will arrive at any time, and then everyone will fight with real swords and guns. After so many years As Jianzhou, which has faced the worst harassment of the grassland people in Beiyan, it has long been accustomed to such a situation.

There is no quarrel, no evasion, no unwillingness, and everyone can already face it very calmly.

It can be said that similar things like this happen every year. The difference is only a matter of scale. The blood feud between the Jianzhou people and the prairie people for many years can no longer be resolved.

This is the frontier of Beiyan, the barrier of Beiyan.

Although no one has publicized such a thing, the people of Jianzhou have been actively preparing. Years of struggle have taught them that begging for mercy and running away are useless. Being a leading party can be abandoned at any time. , Resisting the aggression of the grassland people is the correct way.

Although the entire Luanfeng City has not changed much, it is still tightly arranged. Once the war starts, Yan Xuelan will definitely pull the team up to fight.

For this reason, both Luanfengwei and Fengchunying began to intensify training, and even the security team did the same.

Although the security team does not go out of the city to fight, they must learn to use various defensive equipment, be familiar with the layout of the city defense, how to evacuate the masses, how to close the city gates, how to use the environment in the city to carry out street fighting and so on.

It was also thanks to Yan Xuelan who chose the castle of the garrison and transformed it into Luanfeng City. Its facilities were originally designed for the garrison, so its outer city wall can be well defended, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Especially now that the internal staff of Luanfeng City is relatively sufficient, and it is already a bit saturated, and it will not be able to accommodate more people in a short time, unless they expand.

There are now about 6 residents in the entire Luanfeng City, including men, women and children.

And Luanfeng City now has about 3 soldiers.Among them, 1 people are Yan Xuelan's Luanfeng Guards, who are her soldiers in the main battle. Of the remaining 1000 people, 9000 people are from the Spring Camp.The remaining more than [-] people are the security team, which can be regarded as a half-soldier and half-farmer team, and corresponding military training is required during work and rest time on weekdays.

As for Chen Zheng, these action teams are considered non-staff personnel and not a formal combat unit.

The 1000 people in the spring camp were mentioned earlier because a group of bloodless people successfully arrived in the past few days, and it was exactly 1000 people after removing the previous attrition.

The Fengchun camp finally has a fighting capacity of a thousand people.

And because of the existence of the first batch of people, the second awakening went very smoothly, and with Yang Tao's help, the alchemist became more comfortable with the awakening potion after the last refining.

The second awakening was very successful, very fast, and soon the Fengchun Camp acquired new soldiers, and these recruits were quickly put into new training under the leadership of the veterans.

Gao Shun and Tan Daoji also devoted themselves to the training. Although only [-] people were lost in the last battle, they have already realized that even though the soldiers of the Fengchun Camp are talented, their combat effectiveness is still not enough, especially when they meet When it comes to powerful warriors, their experience in dealing with them is still insufficient.

They still need to carry out further targeted training, not just about combat experience such as martial arts, but also need to develop the mysterious power in their bodies. Up to now, only Yang Tao has successfully displayed it, although he can't tell clearly What is this mysterious power, but since it is brought about by the talent of the Tianmai practitioners, it is not impossible for other Fengchunying soldiers to awaken this power.

At the same time, their cultivation also needs to be further improved. It is difficult for them in the Luck Realm to resist the attacks of martial artists in the Tongmai Realm, but what if they are all in the Zhoutian Realm, the Meridian Realm, or even a higher realm?Can opponents like Gu Da and Gao Gu attack them like this and cause such casualties?Obviously impossible.

So this is also the goal of their next training.

The nearly [-]-strong team of the security team is now led by the grandfather Lian Xin. Although he is relatively old and has almost changed from an uncle to an uncle, he has to admit that he does have Corresponding talents, and the ability to lead the security team.

At the beginning, the members of the security team were not particularly convinced by the airborne old man, because from the outside, Lian Xin might be older than the fathers of some young people, and he was of the same generation as his grandfather , there are some doubts about his ability.

It's just because he is respected as an old man, so not many people have bothered with him about related issues.

It was only after Lian Xin showed his cultivation and knowledge that he completely frightened the young people of the security team, making them realize that Lian Xin is not the bad old man they imagined, but a real old man. A martial artist with a high level of cultivation is also a person with a certain family history.

It is also under the leadership of Lian Xin that the security team has made great progress.

It turns out that although the people in charge of the security team have experienced military training, those who have been trained may not necessarily train others.

They had some problems with the education methods before, and they wanted to follow the training of the army, but the security team could not bear that kind of intensity, and they did not apply the punishment system in the army, because they were not yet the army, and they could not apply that kind of training. The rules are too harsh on the security team.

So the training process is not going very smoothly.

The difficulties in this area were easily solved after Lian Xin arrived. Lian Xin has sufficient experience. He had trained villagers to defend the village in a small mountain village before. This nature is the same as that of the security team.

And the security team already has a corresponding foundation, which is much better than when the villagers didn't know anything.

After Lian Xin arrived and demonstrated his strength, he fully understood the number and role of the security team, then contacted the management of the security team, and selected some representatives from the ordinary people of the security team to obey. part of their opinions and suggestions.

Then the security team was reminded to a corresponding degree.

The current duty of the security team is to conduct military training in addition to farm work, and at the same time take turns to be responsible for the security work in Luanfeng City.

In addition to the most basic physical training and weapon training in military training, the simulation of city defense and the use of defense equipment should also be added to the training accordingly.

In fact, these thousands of people are the reserve defenders. Once Luanfeng City is attacked and the city is short of manpower, the security team needs to go up to help defend the city.

Since it is to help defend the city, it is necessary to carry out corresponding training. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if the time comes when the blood rushes forward to help everyone avenge their hatred, but in the end they do bad things with good intentions.

The previous person in charge didn't think of this, because he thought that the effect was not good, and it might leak the secrets of the city defense, and then he was criticized and educated by Lian Xin.

The city defense is fixed and dead. There are a number of arrow holes and crossbows on the city defense. Anyone who is not a fool can see it clearly. How can he be brave enough to show it to others if he is seen by others? Could it be a secret?
Besides, if you don't carry out corresponding training, you want these members of the security team to help defend the city in the future?
This is not to give full play to the talents of the security team, but to be irresponsible to every security team member.

If they don't train well on weekdays, they will die for this reason in the future during battle.

Then the entire security team was put into brand-new training because of this, changing the previous style.

And Luanfengwei's side has also changed a little.

The 3000 Luanfeng Guards are now nominally managed by Xie Nongqi, and [-] of them are Yan Xuelan's personal guards. Their daily tasks are to guard Yan Xuelan's fortress, and they are responsible for personal protection of Yan Xuelan's body. Safety.

The rest of the 7000-strong team needs to be stationed in other places in Luanfeng City for all-weather tactical training, and at the same time to defend some important locations, which involve a certain degree of confidentiality.It is not suitable for people from the security team to be in charge of management, but for Luanfengwei to take over.

Xie Nongqi hadn't left Luanfeng City before, but she had to stay behind at that time. There was no corresponding combat force in the city, and the daily training of Luanfeng Guard also needed her command, so she didn't leave.

This time she was finally free.

Because Yan Xuelan finally had a capable assistant here, who allowed her to escape without having to deal with too complicated affairs.

Xie Nongqi concentrates on the work of the [-] Guards. That capable assistant will take over the daily training of the other Luanfeng Guards, and at the same time provide the Luanfeng Guards with a backup source of troops.

On the first day of Xie Nongqi's return, Beili returned his previous authority and served as the vice-captain of the pro-guard.

Because of the defeat in the previous battle, although Yan Xuelan was very satisfied with the performance of the guards, Xie Nongqi didn't think so.
