Most of the 60,000 soldiers and civilians begging for help were women, children, the elderly and the weak, and there were only over 10,000 young adults.

However, they have experienced hundreds of battles, have a strong desire to survive, and have high morale, far better than any 10,000-person army in the North.

The hard skills such as martial arts are not bad, but it is a pity that there are too many obstacles, no supplies, and the ordnance and weapons are crude.

If the rationing of sophisticated equipment and medical logistics and other aspects can keep up, it will definitely be a powerful army.

More importantly, the foundation of this army was built based on the original aspirations of Yan Nu and Miao Han. Whether it is its military force or its organizational structure, Miao Han spent his efforts and Yan Nu spent his flesh and blood...

Although they had been left alone for several months, this army was completely born out of the refugees and had not forgotten the mission that Yan Nu told them to protect their fellow villagers.

On the contrary, after being tempered through hundreds of battles, our cohesion has become stronger.

So much so that Miaohan himself was surprised to meet again today.

"It's just equipment and supplies, I'll look for them." Yan Nu was immersed in Taoism, preparing to use the Shennong Cauldron to equip them with sufficient weapons.

However, Miaohan had a thought and held down Yan Nu: "Wait a minute."

Miaohan really didn't expect that the idea that was unintentional and even taken for granted at the beginning turned out to be really effective and could withstand the blow and test of reality.

Thinking about it carefully, if she and Yan Nu had been leading and protecting them, they might not have transformed as much as they did now.

It's nothing more than eating food on duty, being ignorant, taking advantage of the wind, and being defeated.

The experience of the beggar army inspires everyone to take initiative, rather than being a numb bystander.

No one gave them food, no one provided them with weapons, and no one brought them a peaceful environment, so they had to work hard to survive. Everyone used their brains and took the survival of the collective as their own responsibility.

Treat every battle as your last chance before the end.

In this way, we have today’s spiritual outlook and cohesion.

"People must rely on themselves, Yan Slave. If you give them inexhaustible powerful weapons, the fighting spirit they finally inspired may collapse." Miaohan Divine Sense said.

Yan Nu wondered: "Why? They have already tried hard."

"..." Miaohan pouted: "Actually, Xingtian's army also has such a problem, but it is understandable that it is to rule the cultivation world as soon as possible."

"Anyway, you listen to me when it comes to human matters."

She knew that Yan Nu was very sincere to people, just like Yu Yangzi and Zhang Bijiang, they almost clearly wanted to deal with Yan Nu at the beginning, pretending to cooperate and leaving behind.

But because they showed good character, Yan Nu chose to believe them and would not change his attitude based on speculation and risks. He would only wait until he was really hurt.

The same goes for the case of Chang Dingwen. He is as fierce as fire and has a clear distinction between good and evil. Although it is good, it is too labelling and ignores the complexity of the human heart.

He will not look back until he hits the wall. Even if the facts come out, he will forcefully break the facts.

This is Yan Slave, it cannot be changed, and it will never change.

It won't happen even a thousand times or ten thousand times. This is the other side of the original self's absolute spiritual wall, so Miaohan doesn't even bother to explain it.

"You believe me."

"Then I'll leave it to you. Hey, you still said you don't want to be the Human Emperor?" Yan Nu said with a smile.

Miao Han rolled his eyes: "I really can't do it. I don't have the courage."

"Besides, it is already difficult for us to unify the world. For me, a woman, to take this path will be ten times more difficult. It will only add more details. It is unnecessary."

Yan Nu curled his lips and said, "Besides you, I don't see anyone who can create a human world that will be in line with my wishes."

"Perhaps the things left by the First Emperor will give us guidance." Miaohan declined this topic.

A few hours later, night fell.

Julu City has been cleared out, and the begging soldiers and civilians found a large amount of food in the monster's treasury in the city.

The armors and weapons were even more sophisticated and piled up like mountains, gathering dust in the warehouses.

"Great, this equipment is enough to arm 50,000 people!"

"There are so many mysterious armored soldiers! They are actually engraved with runes, and their true energy is stored at will. This is a magic weapon."

"It seems that those monsters refined it for themselves. I didn't expect it to be advantageous to us now."

"Hahaha, even the army of hypocrites doesn't have this kind of equipment, right?"

"As expected of a demon country, it has a profound foundation."

"Huh, that's not just the result of robbing and plundering the counties. With these equipment, we can better protect everyone."

The warriors in the beggar army were beaming with joy, holding various weapons and armors, and never let go of their hands happily.

The harvest in Julu City gave them a big surprise. They didn't doubt that he was there, they just thought it was the accumulation of the Demon Kingdom.

Only Han Tiedao and a few others could see that so many magic weapons and equipment were probably not as simple as those made by demons.

On the one hand, it is the difficulty of refining. Even if there are monsters with rich knowledge and skills, they will not be many. Can one person refine a warehouse full of weapons?

On the other hand, the monsters have refined so many equipments, why don't they wear them?

"Jiang Junhou, may I ask, are these soldiers and armors made by you?" A leader of the beggar army asked when he saw Yan Nu's silly smile and raised his hand.

He is tall and strong, with slightly dark skin and a pair of tiger eyes that look powerful.

Yan Nu was very honest and said with a surprised look on his face: "Wow? You can see that right?"

"..." Miaohan was speechless.

Han Tiedao also came over. He had seen Yan Nu's ability to obtain food, so he was not surprised at all.

Immediately explain to the leader of the beggar army how his group, who followed Yan Nu in Qingzhou, learned martial arts, ate precious meat, and gained great strength.

"Why didn't Marquis Jiang Jun carry out such methods of the Immortal Family openly, but instead relied on the demon country's treasury to hide them?" The leader immediately saw Yan Nu's purpose, but he was still puzzled.

Miaohan stepped forward and said: "We have the power of the immortal family, but we do not respect ghosts and gods. We want to change the sky."

"Yan Nu's methods are like miracles. As long as you know it, don't make it public, otherwise the army will become slack and rely on miracles, and the people will only worship the gods."

The beggar leader raised his hands and said: "I understand, the military spirit of a beggar is indeed rare. Miss is thoughtful, may I ask who you are..."

Han Tiedao quickly introduced him, and the beggar leader immediately paid his respects: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhu."

Although he knew Miaohan was a woman, he could also be called son, which was a highly respectful title for women.

"A certain family has thanked Jiang Junhou and Zhu Gongzi for their life-saving grace. We, the beggars, are willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses." He immediately bowed down and expressed his gratitude again.

Yan Nu laughed loudly and helped him up: "What a dog or horse, if you behave upright, you will have your own blessings."

"You are very good. You can protect the people and lead us to survive in this troubled world. Don't call me a military prince. My name is Yan Nu. Just call me that."

The man stood up and also smiled: "I thought that my god-like figure would be as arrogant as those literati, but it turns out he is also a cheerful person."

"If you are a rough guy, you don't have to follow any rules. You can just call me by your nickname."

"A certain person's surname is Ran and his nickname is Jinu."

Yan Nu said happily: "Then our names are very similar."

Everyone was talking and laughing. Seeing that the night was getting dark, they repaired on the spot in Julu City.

At night, the beggar army distributed equipment. Because the city was in ruins and only a few buildings were intact, they organized people to set up some simple shacks.

The woman looked at the various ingredients in the warehouse and smiled.

In the past, it was difficult for a clever woman to make a living without rice.

The men struggled around to find some food, while the women made fires to cook, went to the countryside to find some roots and wild vegetables, and that was how they dealt with it.

And in the monster warehouse, there are pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and fish, which is very rich.

Today I reunited with the Yan slaves, defeated the demons, and regained my freedom. The beggar army, who had lived a hard life for a long time, immediately decided to reward everyone tonight.

"Thanks to Marquis Jiang Jun, I'm asking you, all of you, to take a good look at our women's craftsmanship." A group of women laughed and grabbed chickens and ducks.

A group of warriors shouted: "You country women have a damn skill, just roast meat and add some salt, I can do it too!"

The woman shouted angrily: "Don't look down on others. Our family has worked in wealthy families before and we have learned a lot!"

Ran Jinnu laughed: "Haha? Really? Let's try your family's delicacies today."

A group of people were divided into several circles and sat in the center of the city. This was originally a mansion of a wealthy family, but it was now in ruins. Everyone didn't care at all and sat on the ground.

Someone set up a scaffolding and lit a torch, and the stars lit up the darkness.

The big cauldron cooks food, the small pot cooks porridge, and there are chickens and sheep skewered on the grill, squeaking and dripping with oil.

The women also cooked fish soup and mutton soup to bring out the umami flavor, and used the soup to roast duck and pork.

Miaohan came from a wealthy family. Although he had never cooked before, he could still give some vague advice.

For a time, these country women really made the scene filled with smoke and fragrance, and countless men drooled and moved their index fingers.

It can only be said that even if some ingredients have never been handled before, some clever women can learn to cook them properly without a teacher, using their brains.

Some couples are quarreling with each other, and some singles are secretly eating.

The older children went to help cook, while the younger ones chased and played beside the old man.

Yan Nuji sat on the ground, leaning back slightly, with his hands in the soil, watching everyone busy at work, and felt extremely happy in his heart.
