All the soldiers of the East Lake Army, the guardsmen, and some common people who performed well were given the military training method.
Supplemented by sufficient food, they quickly developed their potential through practicing the Dharma.
The increase in strength is immediate.
As for Mai Tiezhang and Mu Hong, who had contributed to Wang Jing's capture of more than 10,000 young men not long ago, they had obtained a further step.
Especially the iron rod.
He was able to reach the third level with his own talent even when he didn't have any training methods.
Now that he was taught by Wang Jing, his strength began to soar rapidly. Life fluctuations continue to rise, and there are signs of reaching the third level peak.
"There will only be more and more powerful people appearing in the future, fifth-level, sixth-level and even ninth-level generals. If they appear on the battlefield, ordinary soldiers will not be able to cause any harm to them!"
"Soldiers must continue to grow stronger. We don't expect them to kill generals on the battlefield. It's good to increase their strength!"
Wang Jing has a premonition about the future of the Chinese world.
He is not one of those aristocratic families in history who strictly guarded their spiritual practice.
He can teach those unused cultivation methods as long as they are helpful to the growth of power.
After a few days of adjustments.
The East Lake Army has reached an important rule, that is, as long as you join the army, whether you are a combat soldier or a guard soldier, you can get the military training method.
Generals and commanders above the rank of captain can receive higher-level teachings according to their official positions and merits.
From the lowest level of soldiers to thousands of households, there are methods that can be practiced, and there are ways to continuously grow and improve.
As long as this rule remains unchanged, Wang Jing's East Lake Army will become stronger and stronger.
The soldiers and guards of the East Lake Army are not fools. They can feel how precious a method that can continuously make themselves stronger is.
These are troubled times.
In troubled times, a strong body and powerful strength can protect you wherever you go.
In various eras before the Qing Dynasty, if ordinary people wanted to learn a craft and gain the ability to make a full meal, they had to work hard for their master for at least ten years, and they didn't know how much hardship they had to endure.
The skills taught by Wang Jing are much more precious than those skills of eating. They are the foundation for a stable life.
After obtaining the method, the soldiers and guards' loyalty to Wang Jing suddenly increased several times, almost becoming a die-hard loyalist.
But there is no problem in letting them work hard in battle or use their strength when building a city. They can be driven as they please without any dissatisfaction.
After the strength and physique of thousands of people increased, the efficiency of logging, quarrying, and digging foundations increased significantly.
According to Shen Yi's calculations, the city can be built in about a year at this speed.
"too slow!"
When Wang Jing heard this time, he immediately shook his head.
Now is the time when all the major forces are competing against each other, and time is running out. If you waste a year building the city, you will lose more than you gain.
However, external expansion also requires a foundation on which to stand. The city had to be built again.
"Is there any other way to shorten the time?"
Wang Jing asked.
Shen Yi said helplessly: "If we want to shorten the construction period of the city, we can only conscript more labor, but our population is limited, and conscripting too many labor will affect farming."
"The soldiers and the common people who train and serve in the guards consume a lot of food every day. Especially after the lord taught the soldiers the body-building method, the food consumption rate doubled!"
"Unless we can send troops to sweep through the major forces in the south and recruit tens of thousands of people... If there are 100,000 laborers, it will not take half a year to build a county!"
Wang Jing frowned slightly.
At this time, more than thirty forces in the south are fighting each other with the beggar army. Both sides have already fought with real fire. Participating rashly at this time will easily arouse hostility between the two sides.
Zhu Wu seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said: "My lord, Yuan Shu can build three cities in a row. In addition to enough manpower, he must have a master craftsman who is good at construction! If we can find this master craftsman, we can build cities in the future. It’s not a problem!”
What he said makes sense.
However, everyone knew about the master craftsman who could build three regular cities in a short time, and he was still in Yuan Shu's army. How could he help Wang Jing build a city?
"Lord... If it really doesn't work, we can build a city similar to the begging army city first. Then it won't take long to complete the construction!"
Shen Yi suggested.
Wang Jing shook his head and said: "The Tucheng of the Begging Army is no different from the military fortress. It can withstand the attack of one thousand or two thousand soldiers and horses, but it will be broken when it is besieged by thousands or even ten thousand people!"
"What I want is a solid foundation. The major forces in the east, including the Taiping Army and the White Lotus Army, which are the weakest, have thousands of troops. If the city wall is not strong enough, how can we make people feel at ease if they take the back route after sending troops?"
Shen Yi and Zhu Wu sighed.
At this time, Fan Yin, who was responsible for training the army's spies, walked over quickly and said, "My lord, there is urgent news from the spies. Sun Ru is leading 20,000 elite soldiers to attack Longevity City together with General Liu Zeqing..."
Sun Ru attacked Wanshou City?
Wang Jing and the two people beside him looked at each other with moved expressions.
As early as when they sent Mu Chun and Chen Da to inquire about the news, they knew that Sun Ru coveted the three cities under Yuan Shujun's command and often sent detective horses to appear near Wanshou City.
But when they suddenly heard that Sun Ruzhen led his troops to attack Yuan Shu, everyone was still a little shocked.
The various forces in the East seem to be chaotic, but in fact there is a certain order among the chaos.
Among them, when Yuan Shu came, he should have been on the eve of his proclaimed emperor and had not been severely attacked by Cao Cao. He retained more of his ministers, generals and the people under his rule.
Therefore, Yuan Shu occupied a quarter of Sizhou's territory.
Sun Ru and Liu Zeqing occupied the area around Quy Nhon, with tens of thousands of troops and 340,000 civilians. They always wanted to take action against Yuan Shu.
Zhang Guiba of the Cao Army confronted the Nanliang Army. Among them, the Tang Army chose to form an alliance with the Nanliang Army to fight against the Cao Army due to insufficient troops and horses. The three parties are located hundreds of miles east of Wang Jingzheng.
As for the former Qin army, it was limited to insufficient food, grass and population, and was constantly attacking to clean up the nearby Taiping Army, White Lotus Army and other scattered forces.
In general, there are many forces in the east, but they are in a strange balance. Each force has its own opponents. Except for Sun Ru, who is eyeing the most powerful Yuan Shu.
Other forces are looking for ways to annex weaker forces to strengthen them.
Sun Ru sent troops to attack Yuan Shu, which broke this balance.
foreseeable.
After learning that Sun Ru had attacked Wanshou City, the confrontation and annexation of other forces would definitely accelerate sharply.
"Lord, our chance has come!"
Zhu Wu said excitedly: "Now that Sun Ru and Yuan Shu are facing off, they can't pay attention to other movements in a short period of time. We can take advantage of this time to raid one of the forces."
"No matter which side you defeat and annex, you can gain a large population!"
