Zhou Bai had been exposed to martial arts both in his deduced past life memories and in the process of establishing a powerful team in this life.
Immortal, Wu Shuangxiu, isn’t this the standard equipment for time travellers?
But Zhou Bai soon discovered that there was really no future in martial arts. At the end of his innate life, his longevity was the limit of 100 years for a mortal.
Until now, the peak of spiritual energy is coming, and through Tianjue's internal authority, he learned that Zhang Xianren of Heaven has still not fallen, so he thought about developing martial arts.
Together with the spiritual tide, the mortal world will also become the spiritual world. Even if it is not as good as the thirty-three days of the fairy world, it can still be regarded as a medium-high energy level dimension in the vast world.
If you just want to achieve a plan in a short time to deploy martial arts throughout the county and master more extraordinary troops, it must be to promote martial arts, rather than the immortal way that emphasizes chance and talent.
In Zhou Bai's idea, the strength of martial arts grows rapidly in the early stage, and a demon-suppressing army with all acquired and innate members can control the most chaotic period after the peak of the spiritual tide.
What's more, cultivating Tao seeds and expanding the Taoist priest corps can be carried out simultaneously. This is what the General Mansion has been doing.
Zhou Bai didn't know what level of martial arts was beyond innateness. He actually couldn't understand it. Zhang Wufeng could become an immortal, but there was no other person in the entire mortal world who could break through innateness.
There are very few legends about Zhang Wufeng in the mortal world. We only know of historical records that there was such a person who shattered the void with his martial arts and inspired countless warriors for thousands of years.
And in the immortal world, Zhang Wufeng has little reputation, so the mortal world does not know whether this only martial immortal in ancient times is still alive.
You must know that Xiantian is only equivalent to the monk's entry into the Taoist realm, and there are six or seven major realms behind it that can be considered a fairyland.
What kind of talent does Zhang Wufeng need to be able to achieve such a level of talent? He is truly beyond the scope of martial arts in this world.
Zhou Bai even asked Chi Qing about this, wanting to know if the Red Emperor's lineage paid attention to Zhang Wufeng.
Unexpectedly, Chi Qing told him that after Zhang Wufeng ascended, the Emperor of Heaven ordered not to disturb him.
According to some rumors, the price is that Zhang Wufeng cannot leave his inheritance, so as not to shake the stability of the mortal world.
This has allowed Zhang Wufeng to have a rather transcendent status for thousands of years. He has received a salary from heaven and always thinks of him when he has good things to do, but never looks for troubles. In short, he will not be allowed to go on missions.
This time Zhou Bai had to spend two thousand contribution points to ask Heavenly Court to come forward and let Zhang Wufeng perfect the martial arts secrets. In fact, Chi Qing didn't think he would succeed.
Because this martial immortal only focused on practicing martial arts and ignored what was going on outside the window, he even survived the five declines of heaven and man without stopping for a day.
But this time, he was invited to contribute only 2,000 points. Maybe it was related to the request to improve the secrets of martial arts.
Innate skills, from Zhou Bai's point of view, are just easier to break through the innate skills. Whether it can be used to reach a higher level is unknown.
After obtaining the innate skills, Zhou Bai began to organize the army and teach the basic skills of the innate skills to the demon-suppressing army.
And the atmosphere of unrest in the world has spread to the remote Bei'an County.
"Well, the world is not peaceful anymore, how can Dingzhou and Bei'an be peaceful..."
Just after the New Year, that is, 300,000 immigrants from Cangbei had just settled in Cangnan, and Sun Yucheng could no longer sit still.
The county government's treasury has enough money and food, and there is fertile land for hundreds of miles outside the city, but the other seven counties cannot bear it and do not exchange their supplies with the county city, not to mention that Jiedu Mansion still needs 30,000 troops.
Sun Yucheng originally planned to place 20,000 of these soldiers in the county town below, but now they are naturally unable to support them from one city.
In January, under the pretext of suppressing bandits, the army of Jiedu Prefecture took turns to extort money from large estates outside the county and the four counties in the north of the county.
In January, the Demon-Suppressing Army of the General Mansion once again expanded to include one guard and five battalions, reaching a strength of 7,500 people. The soldiers were all qualified students from the three counties in the new barracks.
At the same time, the 10,000 county soldiers belonging to Cangbei County were disrupted and reorganized with the garrison of the three counties. After a selection process of survival of the fittest, a total of 13,000 soldiers were obtained.
These 13,000 people belong to the conventional armed forces other than the Demon-Suppressing Army, that is, the garrison. Among them, 6,000 people are stationed in Pingcang County, 2,000 people are stationed in Yangyuan County, 2,000 people are stationed in Yuanmin County, and Kukou Pass and Cangshan Four thousand men were stationed to the north.
Because of the addition of veterans such as Cangbei County soldiers, the garrison has now officially become Zhou Bai's main force in foreign campaigns.
Some tough and costly battles also require the garrison to fight.
In addition, there are a total of 5,000 township militiamen and county militiamen in the entire military establishment of the General's Mansion. These militiamen are the second-line troops responsible for guarding the local area.
The garrison is now stationed separately, just staying in place to reduce logistical pressure, and will be summoned immediately if there is a war.
Reorganization of the army and stabilization of immigrants were the two major things Zhou Bai did in January.
In February, the spring mountains are green and the spring water is rippling.
When all things revived and spring was being planted, even Sun Yucheng did not dare to take the risk and forcefully send troops. Instead, he calmed down and called on the people of the county to open fields to welcome the spring.
Lou Jinpeng reorganized the yamen army and made the outer town army peaceful inside and outside. After Lin Ren celebrated his birthday, he was also officially accepted by Sun Yucheng. Relying on various meticulous internal affairs management, the political affairs of the Jiedu Mansion were in order.
Coupled with the appearance of Wu Dingmen's real person to support him, and with the combined efforts of various means, Sun Yucheng's fate backlash seems to have been truly calmed down and cured.
But just when Jiedu Mansion was integrating its forces and trying to forge ahead, something went wrong within the Sun family.
Sun Geng, the head of the Sun family, held a family meeting without Sun Yucheng's knowledge to discuss the Sun family's participation in the military and political management of Jiedu Mansion.
To put it bluntly, it means decentralizing power and getting a share of the pie. It turns out that Sun Yucheng has always been worried about the family's inability to support him wholeheartedly. After relying on the family's strength to succeed, he did not attract too many Sun family members to participate in management.
The one who leans towards him is okay, but the clan elders and elders who concentrate on gathering under the command of his father, Sun Geng, are those who have not held any official position.
Sun Geng was anxious, so he held a private meeting and waited for the outcome of the deliberations before calling Sun Yucheng over to force him to admit.
It's just that when Sun Yucheng was angry, he naturally broke up and broke up. For a while, cracks actually appeared within the Sun family.
Sun Yucheng didn't understand and thought that his father was too greedy for power and Tianding Qianlong just refused to fully support him.
As everyone knows, Bu Yuanzi has noticed something is wrong...
February, spring breeze, spring warmth, spring day, spring growth.
Zhou Bai made steady progress when Sun Yucheng was in trouble again.
First, a city emperor sacrifice was held to officially recognize Chao Qu's status as the righteous god in the area under his jurisdiction. This was also widely recognized by the people throughout the territory.
Because not only 300,000 immigrants benefited from Chao Qu, Chao Qu had done many things to benefit the people during his tenure as Emperor Pingcang City.
For example, the rain that consumed a lot of divine power, and the annihilation of the ghosts in Cangshan Mountain, so that the hundreds of ghosts walking at night never appeared in Pingcang, etc.
No one knows the miserable situation in Cangbei County now. Even if the General's Mansion is very powerful, it will only be beneficial if there are multiple true gods in charge.
After a ceremony, Chao Qu stabilized his position as the seventh-grade county emperor, while Zhou Bai found that he did not spend much on the system's luck, and most of it came from the support of the people.
The more troubled the times, the easier it is for gods of all kinds to accomplish things.
Seeing that Chao Qu had good results here, Zhou Bai then built a temple on the land of Chengdong Village in the former Cangbei County during the field opening ceremony in Hongni Township, and asked the people to carry her nearly broken statue into the new temple.
The village land suddenly became rural land, and the eighth-grade divine position was a blessing.
Zhou Bai's move was not only to reward his merits, but also to ensure subsequent grain production. He needed fertilizer technology and God's blessing.
The techniques of fertilizing the land and increasing the yield were standard features of the land god. Seeing that the spring seedlings in Hongni Township were growing better than those in other townships, Zhou Bai ordered each township to recommend people who had made contributions to the people in the local area in history.
As long as the people in each township are willing to build temples, the General Office will not hesitate to issue an official document of recognition after investigation.
Many knowledgeable people, including Taoist officials such as Li Yuan, believe that this will inevitably divide the people's destiny.
The people's faith and luck under the rule have all gone to the gods. As the master of the people, who will have the luck?
Even if it is a unified dynasty, it is not possible for every village and every township to have land, and every county and every county to have a city emperor. It is based on this kind of worry.
However, who is Zhou Bai? He is blessed by the permanent entry of the co-master of gods and humans. No matter how much luck the gods recognized by him receive, it will flow to the system and to him.
February and March are the seasons for spring plowing and field opening, and any hero with a little foresight will not fight too fiercely.
But as soon as April entered, the whole world and the whole Dingzhou were in chaos.
Anti-thiefs fight against anti-thiefs, anti-thiefs fight against the government, feudal towns fight against feudal towns...
On April 3, the first year of Tongzhi, Governor Lei Haomiao may have learned of some rumors, or he may have been restrained by the general ship for too long, so he had to take action.
The state government sent all the magic weapons and spiritual stones from the treasury, and asked the Taoist priests to use all their strength to destroy the foreign troops in the generals. At the same time, they did not know what price they had to pay, so that the Yang Shen Zhenjun, who had been unable to work hard, became real.
The general ship is within a hundred miles of the reach of extraordinary power. Day and night there are roars, fire and thunder, and even a main gun is fired again.
However, the heroes of Dingzhou did not care to pay attention to this earth-shattering war. They all had their own plans to realize.
Who knows if the Governor will target them if he frees up his hands.
On April 5, Yan Luo, the governor of Ruinan County, presented himself to the court as a military envoy and captured the county in one fell swoop.
This is somewhat similar to Sun Yucheng, except that Yan Luo is more relaxed, but he only bribes half of the county magistrates below, and the other half either raises troops or defends himself.
On April 6, Lu Ding, the governor of Pinghe County, did not choose to capture the barren border counties first to stabilize the rear, but instead sent troops to attack the wealthy southern counties.
On April 8, Sun Yucheng, who finally stabilized his family, ordered Lou Jinpeng to lead 20,000 troops to attack the four northern counties of the county.
Within three days, Lou Jinpeng led his troops to attack two counties. Sun Yucheng's Jiedu power increased greatly and the whole city obeyed.
On April 12, in response to the call for help from the people all over the city in Andu County, Zhou Bai swore an oath to Ping Cang and led a garrison of 10,000 people and a demon-subduing army of 5,000 to attack Sun Yucheng, the false military envoy who had harmed the people.
At this time, Lou Jinpeng led his army to Andu County, Beidamen, and needed to march quickly to get back.
