"In this battle, more than 900 craftsmen were captured, 2,000 people were killed, 10 building ships were burned, more than 200 fighting ships were burned, and the red horse boats and the like were ignored."

Lu Yao listened to Zhou Long's report on the victory of this night attack, and his mood became extremely good. Although it failed to achieve its main goal of looting Chiyang City, this capture alone was enough to compensate for the negative impact of the failure of the plan.

Artisans represent productivity.

He was also worried about the serious shortage of craftsmen in Xanadu City. For example, this time, the owner of the Black Tiger Pass and others were willing to use luxury goods to offset the payment for the captives. If there are enough craftsmen in Xanadu City, they can produce and sell their own products, and exchange the least price for an important population.

For this reason, Mojia Village used to be the target of his focus. The tone was set when I received the task of attachment to Mojia Village a long time ago. However, the difficulty of collecting the fragments of the Ink Sutra exceeded his imagination, and only one-third of them have been collected so far. As a result, Mojia Village relaxed its aid restrictions to Xanadu City and promised to hire a group of craftsmen. It was with the assistance of these craftsmen that ten Qiankun building ships were built so quickly.

And now, more than 900 craftsmen were captured in the first war, and it is completely possible to form the industrial base of the territory, and greatly change the embarrassing situation of relying on Mojia Village to provide craftsmen.

Absolutely good news.

The secret record of Lu Gong in Huang Yueying's hand and the remnant of the ink scripture in Ma Jun's hand have made the demand for craftsmen more and more great. With such a group of craftsmen, many projects that have been shelved can be carried out.

Lu Yao quickly calmed down from the ecstasy of capturing this group of craftsmen. Compared to these craftsmen and people, more important is the burning of the huge fleet and dock.

It is true that this expedition has been in a rather embarrassing situation, but Lu Yao is not very surprised. In the previous life, the countries were equally powerless against the vast sea. It is not uncommon for the inexhaustive map to cause the fleet to become disoriented in the sea. Even in the period before his rebirth, the fleets of various countries could only rely on the ancient compass of Sinan to determine the direction, and more relied on the experience of sailors.

There's no reason why the system is so scoundrel.

This expedition deviated from the direction, and Lu Yao did not think that the deviation was too outrageous. That dock and that huge fleet are most likely affiliated with the forces of Chiyang City. Another piece of evidence is the small town.

Only Chiyang City, which once had the background of the Huaxia Alliance, could know the conditions for promotion to the small city. You must know that the vast majority of players are currently blocked by this hurdle. There are also less than fifty player territories on the overall strength list that have been promoted to small towns.

Determining this, Lu Yao couldn't help but feel afraid. If it weren't for the accidental misflight from its destination, I'm afraid that in the near future, this huge fleet would have descended on Xanadu City. At that time, even if you can repel the enemy army, I am afraid that it will inevitably be greatly damaged.

"You can't underestimate the world." Lu Yao muttered to himself, realizing that the formation of the Xanadu City Water Army was imminent.

This time, the naval force of Chiyang City was destroyed by mistake, so what about the next time? Relying on great luck to prevent an opponent from attacking Xanadu through the sea is a chronic suicide.

In addition to forming a naval army, it is also imperative to expand the army.

The results of this expedition were quite satisfactory, and Lu Yao, who had only been active in the interior in his previous life, realized many of his weaknesses. Aside from everything else, he has been smoothly navigating the NPC forces, which has made him a little carried away and seriously neglected the development of the territory's soldiers and horses.

At present, Xanadu City only has 10,000 soldiers and horses, which is still the scale that only recently expanded with 5,000 soldiers and horses. And this expedition, it was clear that he could bring 100,000 troops to destroy the forces of Chiyang City, but he could only squeeze out 5,000 soldiers and horses to play a beheading operation.

It's not cool, it's very unpleasant.

Lu Yao realized this, and soon diverged his thinking, becoming more and more aware of his shortcomings. As Xanadu grew in size, so did the number of garrisons that needed to be stationed in various places. In the event of another expedition, the garrison throughout the realm will drop to a terrible level.

This time, there are more than 20 mountain lords such as the Black Tiger Mountain Lord to help, so what about the next time? Today's friends are not necessarily tomorrow's enemies. He knows this quite well.

In addition to expanding the army, it is also urgent to clear the territory of surrounding players and clear the obstacles for future territory advancement.

Lu Yao knew that he still couldn't be ruthless to be a hero after all, but this time the actions of a group of speculators such as Drunken Xiaoyao made him realize that the world is so big, Zhu Ya is very dangerous, and the benevolence of a woman will only make him a loser.

If it weren't for the fact that he had established a good friendship with the Black Tiger Mountain Lord and other Jiuli Man, I am afraid that even if he was not bulldozed by speculators such as Drunken Xiaoyao this time, he would have suffered a great loss of vitality, and then he would have been profited by the forces of Chiyang City who provoked this war.

Zhuyazhou is a piece of cake in the eyes of various families. With the existence of the forces of Chiyang City, it is inevitable that other families will also be indispensable. And he occupies one of the cakes, and it is inevitable that he will become a thorn in the side of various families.

Capital is not so kind and will tolerate attempts to carve up the pie.

This time it's Chiyang City, and next time it may be a coalition of various families. In the face of the Saga Group with a strong background, Xanadu City is as weak as a little girl.

The principle of striking first is strong, and then striking is universal.

Summarizing the current pros and cons, Lu Yao packed up his mood and walked up to the top floor to look at the vast sea. Facing the vast expanse of the sea, his mood became very peaceful.

Time is running out for yourself.

……

"It's all rubbish." The scorching sun of the sky was like thunder, spraying at a group of subordinates.

After daybreak, after the check, it was attacked by night last night, and the dock was completely destroyed, the timber stored in it was completely destroyed, and the large and small ships that had been built were all destroyed, and the losses were incalculable. What made the sun of heaven even more crazy was that there were only more than three hundred Jiuli barbarians left in the small city.

Countless losses were made, but only more than 300 Jiuli Man corpses that could be seen everywhere in Zhuya Prefecture were obtained, and this wave of losses was huge. Through these corpses, there is no way to find out who attacked the dock built by gathering the entire force, and robbed more than 900 craftsmen who were already scarce.

"Yang Shao, most likely the lonely boat." Ke Zhou begged for a sword with a helpless look of comfort.

The anger of the Heavenly Sun gradually subsided, and he gradually calmed down, gritted his teeth and said, "It must be that soul faint." ”

The Song family's power in Zhuya Prefecture has become a large force in Zhuya Prefecture because of the overall situation that is very advanced in the sky, not inferior to the Wu family, the Yang family and other top families. Looking at the entire Zhuya Prefecture, except for Lu Yao, no one will provoke without permission. Among players, the most unkeepingly important thing is secrets.

"But how did he know we were targeting him?" Ke Zhou Qiu Jian frowned.

"How does he know?" Tianzhiyang snorted coldly, and said resentfully: "Then you still need to say? He is very ambitious, and all the obstacles in front of him will be kicked away. Obviously, we were the first roadblock, and he was targeting. ”

Ke Zhou Qiu Jian pondered for a moment, and then proposed in a deep voice: "Yang Shao, we have to unite with other families. ”
