"I've been in this world for almost a year, and I'm finally leaving Rebel City!"
Zhang Qi stared at the message that just appeared with wide eyes.
Rebel cities are rare in the world of riding and slashing. It usually only happens when the security and food satisfaction of the town are extremely low just after the city was captured.
Because of the mechanism of the riding and slashing world, Rebel City is a neutral town to a certain extent. Except for the lord of the source force being resisted who is hostile to it, other NPC forces will not be hostile to it.
This is in line with Zhang Qi's interests and needs. If he can capture the rebel city, it means that he will have a territory in the world of riding and slashing that will not be attacked by anyone. As long as he does not commit suicide to establish a country, or fight against If other forces declare war, no one will care about them even if they are riding down the world and beating them up.
"Stay in the city and cancel the business trip for the time being!"
Zhang Qi gave Haqin instructions, and the latter immediately stopped walking and waited in Chaikan City.
The caravan has twenty-nine soldiers, including Ha Qin, a total of thirty people. If he wants to attack the rebel city, then this will be a considerable fighting force.
In a pure game, Zhang Qi may not be able to order the caravan to join the battle, but this is not a pure game.
Nowadays, his strength in the world of cavalry and slashing is only forty Kusait heavy cavalry archers and ten Kusait Khan personal guards. He can be said to be invincible in field battles, but when it comes to siege...
"It's still a bit difficult. Maybe we can try to weaken the rebels' military strength in the wild first."
Walking to the tavern, Zhang Qi spread out the map he had recorded in the world of riding and cutting.
Silonia is located in the southwest of Chaikan and is separated by a large river. It would take about six days to travel completely by land.
"Perhaps we can build a bridge across the river to reduce the distance. The advantage of this is that we don't have to carry too many supplies, and we can maximize the mobility of the Kusait troops."
The idea of building a bridge across the river had already sprouted in Zhang Qi's mind. The river between the imperial forces and the Kusait forces was like a natural chasm, increasing the marching distance between the two forces by ten times.
If a bridge is built, the time to enter the empire's sphere of influence from Chaikan will be reduced by ten times, and it can be reached in just ten minutes.
“But how do you build a bridge that can carry people?”
Zhang Qi frowned and thought. Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind.
"pontoon?"
"Using small boats as bridge bases and building wooden boards or logs on the boats can also allow people to pass through."
Zhang Qi thought of the temporary bridges he had seen in film and television works, and immediately paid attention.
"However, the time it takes to build a ship..."
Zhang Qi slapped his forehead: "Stupid! You can build ships outside!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Qi immediately returned to the market, and then disappeared into the world of riding and cutting with more than a hundred bags of grain.
The moment he appeared in the yurt, Zhang Qi turned off the skill effects of time and space, and time froze in the world of riding and slashing.
Hundreds of bags of grain filled the yurt. Zhang Qi went out and asked people to move it away. Then he went to find Lu Mu who was discussing matters with a few thin craftsmen.
"Mr. Lang."
"Mr. Lang."
When Lu Mu saw Zhang Qi coming over, he bowed his hands and saluted. Several craftsmen around him also imitated Lu Mu when they saw him doing this.
"Well, no need to be polite. You guys are here. I would like to ask, do you have any experience in manufacturing fishing boats?"
Zhang Qi stated what he wanted to ask simply and clearly.
Lu Mu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the craftsmen.
One of the craftsmen thought for a while and said, "I wonder how big the fishing boat Langjun needs is. When I was in the Xiongnu tribe, I did build a boat for them that can fish on Hulun Lake."
"Oh!" Zhang Qi was surprised. He didn't expect that among these craftsmen, there were actually craftsmen who could build ships.
"It doesn't need to be too big, just an ordinary ship. Are you sure?"
The craftsman who spoke pondered for a while, then handed over his hand and said: "I can't guarantee that it can fully meet Lang Jun's requirements, but I am willing to give it a try."
"Hahaha, okay, you can dispatch the people in the camp. I need the ship urgently. You can figure out the materials on your own. Lu Mu will help you. Once the work is completed, there will be a generous reward!"
"promise."
Lu Mu and the craftsman accepted the order at the same time, Zhang Qi waved his hand and left.
The matter of riding and slashing the world is important, and the outside world does not want to give in. His immediate goal is to form an army. With the two-pronged operation, Zhang Qi's brain is a little burned.
"Who is that! Come here!"
After looking around the camp, Zhang Qi saw the Hun man whom he promoted to the rank of Centurion Commander.
The latter was already used to that person's name, and Zhang Qi knew he was being called as soon as he called him.
"Owner!"
The man bowed humbly in front of Zhang Qi, and Zhang Qi nodded: "Let Naqi, Wang Li, and Ying come to my yurt."
"yes."
The man took the order and left.
Zhang Qi also returned to his yurt and waited.
After a while, Ying and the others came to his yurt. The grains in the yurt had been moved away by Hui, and it was now spacious.
"start."
"Owner."
"Your Majesty."
The names are different, and Zhang Qi doesn't bother to say them. He doesn't have the energy to work hard on the names yet.
"Everyone, take a seat."
He waved his hand casually. There were a few yurts in the yurt that were soft, so Zhang Qi asked them to sit down.
Afterwards, they got down to business.
"Ying, plus the servants who came back today, how many people do you have under your account?"
"Nine hundred and seventy-four people, Hui helped me count them."
Ying opened his mouth and said that his subordinates were all slaves that Zhang Qi and others took when they attacked various tribes. They were the largest in number, but their combat power was not strong.
Zhang Qi nodded slightly: "I plan to split the servant army. Do you have any objections?"
Ying shook his head, still looking carefree: "It's good to split it up. If we split it up, I won't have so many things to do. You don't know, taking care of them makes me worried. If it weren't for Youhui's help, I would I’ll have a terrible headache.”
Zhang Qi smiled: "You idiot!"
"Since you have no objection, let's split it."
"Wang Li!"
"Your Majesty!"
"You go to the servant army and select three hundred people to add to your team. The task I give you is to train them to become the main soldiers. You don't have to worry about the food and grass. I will make others responsible."
"promise!"
Wang Li's face was a little excited. He almost knew the military instructions he handed to Zhang Qi by heart. In the past, he had never dared to go big due to the strength of the tribe. Now that someone has guaranteed the food and grass, he will have the opportunity to show his ambition. .
"Then who!"
"Owner."
"You currently have more than 80 Hun cavalry under your command. Go and select 120 people from the servant army to make up the double hundred, and teach them how to ride and shoot."
"yes!"
"As for you..."
Zhang Qi looked at Na Qi for the last time.
