"Thank you for saving our lives."

Lu Yao looked at the more than thirty ragged homeless people kneeling on the ground in front of him, and his eyelids jumped immediately. The lord of Feiyang Village did not lie.

The organizational structure of the country presence in the game is well-established. A general leader, that is, a hermit. Here are the heads of the states. There are a variable number of sub-leaders below each leader. Below the sub-leaders are the peripheral members who specialize in providing various resources.

Aside from resources such as wood and stone. Population is an important resource that is only related to the size of the territory. Each level 1 village has only 10 outcasts per day. Feiyang Village can gather more than 50 people in just two or three days, and it is inseparable from those peripheral members.

These peripheral members will not develop their territory, but only to provide Feiyang Village with various resources and population. And needless to say, these homeless people in the cottage are all unlucky people who were refreshed out of the territory just to provide population, but were robbed by the bandits.

"Are there other lords nearby?" Lu Yao frowned.

He didn't know that the territory existed, but it was all an abandoned village. Although the power of the state is strong, it is not easy to gather tens or millions of people. Once the village had been established, these outlying members had to commit suicide and leave the territory to help the other leaders. He was a down-and-out player before he was reborn, and of course he didn't know such a secret.

"Zilong, you take them back to the village to settle down first. I'll talk about it when I get back. Lu Yao cleaned up his mood and immediately made arrangements.

"The last will be ordered."

Seeing that Zhao Yun took more than 30 homeless people to the cottage immediately, Lu Yao began to search. Before he was reborn, he had not attacked this kind of cottage. It can be said that every copycat is a treasure trove in the eyes of players. After scouring around, his originally heavy mood suddenly became very good.

A total of more than 130 gold, 3,682 units of grain and grass, 56 units of wood, 83 units of stone, 56 knives, 27 short bows, and 1,324 arrows were looted from the whole cottage. The most important thing is that there are 8 horses in the cottage. Horses are arguably the most expensive military supplies. The current market price is 10 gold per horse.

In the empty cottage, Lu Yao laughed selflessly. Capturing a cottage before respawning is a surprise, but now it's more than just a surprise. These resources came at the right time, and they are worth tens of thousands of dollars.

With a wave of the big hand, all the resources turned into a number on the panel. This is one of the small benefits of the system, which helps players adapt to the game better. At a certain stage, this benefit is gone.

With such a large amount of resources, Lu Yao had a clearer plan for the future in his heart. Needless to say, the horses are in charge. Just recruit cavalry for Zhao Yun. The Pak Knife can be used to recruit the Pak Knife Soldiers, but of course the premise is to obtain the Pak Dao Soldier Talisman. With the acquisition of short bows and arrows, archers can also be recruited. In addition to this, the seized money and resources could complement the ongoing program.

Looking around this abandoned cottage for a week, Lu Yao immediately set fire to the cottage and went down the mountain to return to the village. Such an abandoned cottage can't be left, otherwise the gang of rogues who are still enduring will occupy this cottage, which will be another scourge.

Back in the village, not surprisingly, all the thirty-three homeless people brought back joined Xanadu Village. The population of the villagers reached 128 in one fell swoop, meeting the first condition for upgrading the village.

In order to upgrade a village, the first thing is to have at least the maximum number of people that the village can hold. In addition, the people's sentiment index, public security index, urban defense index and cultural index must reach the upper limit. When the village is upgraded, in addition to the population, the index will decline to varying degrees. It's about how the territory is built.

With more population, more resources. After clearing the Oolong Cottage, Lu Yao was promoted to level 3 and obtained 3 free attribute points. Needless to say, he added directly to the intellect. In addition to the experience points, the exploits obtained from the extermination of the bandits also allowed him to rise to the rank of captain, and he could lead five regular soldiers. And Zhao Yun made great contributions in this battle, and killed the master of Dazhai, and the meritorious service he obtained directly skipped Shi Chang and was promoted to a centurion, who could lead a hundred regular soldiers.

If there is any regret about the clean-up of the Oolong Cottage this time, it is that the construction drawings have not been scavenged. Although the primary building upgrade only requires resources and does not require corresponding drawings, it is also a lot of income to sell it for money. Ushering in the peak period of player entry, there is a lot of room for appreciation of this kind of primary blueprint. If it is a special building construction drawing, it is even more ideal, and there is no market. In addition, I didn't find any equipment or anything like that.

"Strange." Lu Yao shook his head. The Bandit Camp is a treasure trove for players. Architectural drawings, equipment, and so on can all be produced. Conquering a bandit camp means that the player and their territory will be given an all-round boost.

Naturalized the homeless, Lu Yao made arrangements. Except for some people who were shunted out to continue collecting wild fruits, everyone else took hoes and went out to reclaim the wasteland. Farmland is the foundation of the village. It is true that Zhuya Prefecture is rich in products, but it is not inexhaustible. For a territory to develop well, it is indispensable to cultivate farmland.

After arranging the work of the villagers, Lu Yao took Zhao Yun to the built primary barracks. I have to say that the quality of the displaced people refreshed in Zhuyazhou is not good, but this is good, they are all illiterate people. The junior barracks had just been built and had been fully recruited. Otherwise, how can it be said that the more uneducated people are, the easier it is to fool.

Primary Barracks: You can recruit the corresponding regular troops, reserve soldiers (100/100).

Without saying a word, Lu Yao first recruited five archers for himself, and then arranged for Zhao Yun to recruit five cavalry. Although there were still three horses left, he was not willing to influence the development of the village for the sake of the army for long-term considerations. It's a prime time to make money. If there are three more villagers, the grain and grass collected every day will be more than 100 or even 200 units.

"Zilong, take them out to patrol after a short rest, and find out how many territories exist nearby. If there are people, don't act rashly and come back immediately. Lu Yao completed the recruitment of the first batch of troops in the village and immediately arranged a task for Zhao Yun. Feiyang Village provides population resources behind it, and the unknown number of territories really makes him uneasy.

"The last general will set off." Zhao Yun immediately surrendered, turned on his horse and left the village with the five newly recruited cavalry. It's just that these five freshly baked cavalrymen are obviously rookies, and they are so nervous that they can't wait to lie on horseback.

"I still have to practice." Lu Yao sighed, and then moved his gaze to the five archers in front of him.

Archers are one of the basic classes, arguably the strongest and weakest. Strong is strong, as long as there are other troops in front of them to resist the enemy, archers are a weapon to brush data. Thinking about the fact that the lord of Dazhai is such a good person who can't get on the table, with more than a dozen bows and arrows, he just forced the first-class famous general Zhao Yun to be embarrassed, and he knows the strength of the archers.

Weak is weak because in addition to the bow and arrow, each archer is equipped with a short knife. This is given by the system. Such a weak equipment is close to the enemy, and the consequences can be imagined. Absolute scum.

After briefly browsing the attributes of the archers, Lu Yao also set off. Archers that are not formed in size are not strong, but they are quite effective for hunting. Just like the five rookie cavalry recruited by Zhao Yun, the riding skills are so tragic that people can't look at them directly, but they can greatly increase the patrol range. Four legs are certainly faster than two. In this way, it is better to detect hidden dangers around the village in advance.

As night fell, Lu Yao returned with a full load. Everyone is covered with prey, big and small. Beasts can't be turned into data without being split and collected. And Zhao Yun also brought back good news.

"My lord, the last general found the Liukou camp thirty miles northeast of the village."
