The use of the Soldier Scroll is completely unhelpful to others, and can only rely on oneself to comprehend and study.

Liu Yi has been ready to move since he got the scroll, and Shang Ji has a good eye to say goodbye, leaving time for Liu Yi.

Without much delay, he led everyone directly back to Heishuisai.

At present, the black water plug is developing into a commercial distribution center. A large number of war horses were traded here, and when Shang Ji returned to Heishuisai, Su Huan just led the army to escort a batch of war booty back.

There were 2,000 horses, 5,000 cattle, and 20,000 sheep! A large area of livestock was in full swing, and the five hundred dragon archers were divided into ten teams to rush back and forth to patrol to prevent accidents.

Entering the black water plug, I saw Deng Yan, who was so busy that his feet couldn't touch the ground.

didn't bother to say a few words, Shang Ji handed over the production talents he brought to Deng Yan and let him be responsible for the placement. At the same time, a large amount of iron ore exchanged is put into storage.

Embarrassed to continue to bother Deng Yan to be busy, Shang Ji found Lu Kuang, who was currently in charge of the military aspect.

First, he was rewarded with a few pills such as the Rejuvenation Pill, the Yuan Qi Pill, and the Great Mixed Yuan Pill. Looking at the system prompt that the loyalty had increased to 97 points, Shang Ji nodded with satisfaction.

"Tell me about the remaining troops in the fortress at the moment!" Shang Ji sat on the throne of the town guard mansion and asked.

"My lord, there are currently 1,300 active troops left in the Black Water Fortress, including 500 sword and shield men, 500 archers, and 300 light cavalry. In addition to this, there are two thousand reserves, and the reserves do not differ in strength from the regular army, except for insufficient weapons and equipment! Lu Kuang replied proudly.

After Su Huan left, he was responsible for the military training and recruitment in the Black Water Plug, and he accounted for 80% of the credit for the two thousand rabbles who were originally uneven in strength to be able to train into what they are now.

"Well done!" Shang Ji smiled and praised, and then said: "Now that I have been promoted to Sima of other departments, I can command and govern 10,000 people, officially turn all the reserves into regulars, and then go all out to recruit and train the army, and strive to reach full strength within two months!" ”

"Congratulations to the lord!" Lu Kuang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then immediately congratulated with a happy face, as a subordinate, of course he would be promoted to an official!

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, this thing is for you, I hope you can live up to my trust!" Shang Ji said, taking out the training cheats of the [Heavy Armor Sword Soldier].

Lu Kuang took the [Heavy Armor Sword Soldier] training cheats suspiciously, looked down and was shocked!

With a pop, Lu Kuang knelt down in front of Shang Ji: "Lord Hongen, the last general will have no teeth to report, he will be smeared with liver and brain, and die for the lord!" ”

Randomly, a pleasant system improvement sound sounded in Shang Ji's ears: "Congratulations to the player Shang Ji, because of your gift, your subordinate Lu Kuang's loyalty to you has increased by three points, and the current loyalty is 100!" ”

Helping Lu Kuang up, Shang Ji said: "Okay, I know your intentions, just train the soldiers well, and when I come back next time, I want to see the [Heavy Armor Sword Soldiers] who have completed the training of two thousand." ”

"I will live up to the trust of the lord!" Lu Kuang solemnly assured.

Handing over the [Heavy Armored Sword Soldier] to Lu Kuang was not a whim of Shang Ji, but a decision made after careful consideration.

In terms of merit, Lu Kuang is indeed inferior to several generals who fought on the Xianbei front, but his credit for carefully rectifying military affairs in the rear and ensuring that the front-line soldiers are sufficient.

In addition, in terms of qualifications, he is also a veteran of the Black Armor Army, second only to Su Huan Kou Xian and others.

On top of that, he has the [Sword and Shield Soldier Mastery] trait. The Heavy Blade is a variant of the Sword and Shield Soldier, but it is still within the scope of the Sword and Shield Soldier.

In Lu Kuang's hands, the [Heavy Armor Sword Soldier] can exert its power even more.

"Do a good job, it is useless to compete for heavy armor and sword soldiers in the grassland, but we will eventually shift the focus of development back to Han land, and when the time comes, heavy armor and sword soldiers will definitely be the backbone of our army, and you will also shine!"

Shang Ji encouraged and comforted a few more words, and then sent Lu Kuang, who was grateful, away.

At this time, Deng Yan finally placed a large amount of loot properly, and had time to exchange a few words with Shang Ji in detail.

"Brother is really powerful, after this wave of wealth is successfully realized, we can earn at least 300,000 gold! It is enough for the development of our black water plug at this stage! Deng Yan's face was full of excitement, thinking that when the financial situation was discussed, Deng Yan's hair was gray before he barely maintained the operation of the black water plug, and now that the funds are abundant, Deng Yan is confident that the black water plug will develop to a new level.

"Haha, it's still thanks to the virtuous brother who is strategizing in the rear, so that he can fight in the front with confidence!" Shang Ji got up and greeted him, standing opposite Deng Yan.

"Come on, come on, bring some small gifts for my brother and brother Xian, and please don't mind Brother Xian!" As he spoke, Shang Ji took out the [Hundred Crafts Tips] that he had exchanged for Deng Yan before and gave it to Deng Yan.

When Deng Yan saw the result, he was also overjoyed, and said: "The foolish brother likes it very much, and the elder brother has a heart!" ”

He and Shang Ji are sworn brothers, and the relationship is more close, so they won't see each other too much, and they don't need to pretend to excuse themselves, so they will accept it immediately.

"With this thing, our equipment production will inevitably go to a higher level!" Deng Yan said excitedly.

When Shang Ji heard this, his mind suddenly moved, and he asked, "Brother Xian, I don't know how much our blacksmith workshop is currently producing?" ”

"Nissan has six sets of black armor Xuanqi suits, ten sets of 100 forging suits, and 100 sets of elite grades, if the situation changes, we can also appropriately adjust the production capacity ratio."

Deng Yan paused and continued: "This is thanks to the blacksmiths that my brother brought back, otherwise it would only be eighty percent of the current production capacity. ”

"Temporarily stop the production of sophisticated-level weapons, focus on starting the production of hundred-forging-level equipment, and have obtained several special training secrets for my brother, and have instructed General Lu Kuang to train two thousand [heavy armor sword soldiers], the gap in hundred-forging-level equipment is too large, and resources are still needed."

Deng Yan nodded and said solemnly: "Well, the foolish brother understands that he will not delay his brother's army expansion!" ”

At present, the official position of Shang Ji Sima, with 10,000 troops under his command, Shang Ji plans to train 2,000 black armor Xuan cavalry, 2,000 heavy armor sword soldiers, 2,000 giant axe soldiers, 2,000 dragon bow cavalry, 1,000 Beidi strong crossbows, 1,000 ordinary light cavalry, and 800 cloth secret agents, of which cloth cloth secret agents are secret troops and do not occupy the number of soldiers.

If these armies are really fully organized and trained according to the plan, it will not be worthwhile to deal with 50,000 ordinary soldiers, and even 100,000 enemy troops can deal with them.

Of course, these are just good expectations at present, the heavy armor sword soldier training cheats have just been sent to Lu Kuang, he hasn't had time to learn it yet, and the other giant axe soldiers and Beidi strong crossbows have not even decided on the specific general candidates!

However, Shang Ji's plan is not delusional, and in the short future, these troops will definitely be able to appear perfectly under Shang Ji's command.

"Brother, there are some things that need to be discussed with you."

"Oh? What's the matter? Brother, please speak! ”

"Brother, now that we have sufficient funds, I intend to repair the city wall of Heishui Plug, and the army is about to expand, only one barracks is obviously not enough to increase the speed of expansion, so I want to build a few new barracks for the expansion of the army. In addition, once the expansion of the army is completed, the barracks and school grounds will not be enough, and they will also need to be appropriately expanded. The manufacturing capacity of the equipped blacksmith workshop is also seriously insufficient, and the foolish brother also wants to build another junior blacksmith workshop, all of which need to be decided by the elder brother himself! ”

Deng Yan babbled a lot, and the business who listened to it had a headache.

"Okay, okay, Brother Xian looks at what needs to be built, just take an idea, just give it to your brother!" Shaking his head, Shang Ji interrupted Deng Yan's words with a wave of his hand, and said with authority.

Deng Yan glanced at Shang Ji helplessly, and said: "Okay, let's expand four more primary barracks, four primary school fields, four primary barracks, and two primary blacksmith workshops, and build the buildings in the Black Water Plug!" ”

Of course, there will not be only one military building in a city, for example, there are five barracks in Wangquan County. A maximum of five barracks can be built in the Black Water Plug, but the Black Water Plug was in a semi-deserted state before, the merchant funds were limited, and the demand was not particularly strong, so it was not repaired and expanded, and the only intermediate barracks could only be used improvised. Now that there are abundant funds and the expansion of the army is imminent, the new barracks and school grounds are officially on the agenda.

As for why the junior barracks and blacksmith workshops were built, of course, it was because the price of the intermediate level was too expensive, and even with the current financial resources of the merchants, they did not dare to build all the intermediate buildings. In addition, mid-level architectural drawings are too rare in the market, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them.

"Okay, just do what the virtuous brother wants! Just ask me for as much money as you need! The wealthy Shang Ji thought about it for a while, and immediately agreed to Deng Yan's proposal.

At present, there is only one [Intermediate Barracks], which can only provide less than a thousand soldiers per month, which is indeed too slow! Expand four more primary barracks, which can recruit and train almost 2,000 soldiers per month, counting the more than 5,000 people that Shang Ji is currently in the organization (3,003 people from Heishui Sai and 2,000 people from the Gana Duo clan), and strive to complete the task of expanding the number of 10,000 people within three months!

However, in this way, the equipment gap is relatively large, especially the special troops to be built, the big axe of the giant axe, the heavy armor long knife of the heavy armor knife soldier, and the crossbow arrow of the strong crossbow in the north all need to be specially made, which greatly occupies the output of the blacksmith workshop. As a result, the blacksmith workshop had to be expanded, and the number of blacksmiths had to be expanded.

Thinking about these messes, Shang Ji has a headache, and it is also a shame that Deng Yan helps deal with these trivial matters, or Shang Ji must go crazy!

Delegated authority to Deng Yan, in addition to the authority to destroy the Black Water Plug, the authority to build, upgrade, demolish, and repair the buildings was all delegated, and all the affairs in the Black Water Plug were handed over to him to handle, and Shang Ji concentrated on attacking Xianbei.

Deng Yan's trust in Shang Ji was both touching and helpless, the boss didn't want to care about these trivial matters, as a righteous brother, Deng Yan could only reluctantly take over this right.
