On January 24, 692, Mainland China, Wufeng left the imperial capital and set off for Qingyang. Before that, Wufeng had a long talk with Gu Ji. Given that the current situation in the imperial capital is still unstable, a reliable person is still needed to stay in the imperial capital to understand the changes in the entire empire. Wufeng decided to temporarily let Gu Ji stay in the imperial capital to collect intelligence, and shoulder the important task of setting various talents for Wufeng.

The expected purpose before coming has been basically achieved. Wufeng was still quite satisfied with this trip to the imperial capital. The funding problem was successfully resolved and even exceeded the expected goal. The Imperial Finance Bureau allocated a total of 3400,000 imperial gold coins to revive Qingyang, which were allocated within three or two years. There were also some intentional plans for attracting investment, but the businessmen still had doubts about the social security situation in Qingyang, and expressed their hope that Qingyang would be able to completely improve the security situation. Later, Qingyang invested and started a business. The immigration problem was also relatively satisfactory, which would greatly promote immigrants from all over the country to move to Qingyang. Ling Tianfang also set off with Wufeng to Qingyang.

Two days before Wufeng left the imperial capital, Guan Yingying and Hua Yumei had left the imperial capital and returned to their hometowns. In addition to going back to celebrate the Spring Festival and reunite with their families, both of them also accepted the task of promoting the Qingyang plan assigned by Wufeng. Guan Yingying was also preparing to go back to do her father's work, so that the proud disciples from Liuhemen joined the army and join Wufeng's troops.

Although it was only a short month since leaving Qingyang, Wufeng felt that he was home like an arrow. The mountains and rivers of Qingyang seemed to have already taken root in his mind, and the voices, appearances and smiles of many brothers and subordinates appeared in front of him from time to time. I don’t know how Qingyang was in the past period of time? How is the progress of various work? They must be guessing their situation in the imperial capital, why hasn’t the news been sent back for so long?

The weather in January was still very cold, but this did not have any obstacles for Wufeng and the others. However, it was obviously impossible for girls like Dilena to ride horses back to Qingyang with Wufeng in such bad weather. With a compassionate attitude, Wufeng simply rented a carriage, and he simply sat in the wind-shielding carriage with Dilena and placed a hot brazier inside. Suddenly, a small world of warmth as spring became in the carriage. Wufeng also lay comfortably in the carriage, leaning against the brocade mat, while stroking Dilena's soft and fluffy hair snuggling beside him, while considering the various problems that he would face when he returned to Qingyang.

The first problem is the lack of people and the foundation of human ownership. Not only is there a lack of talents, but also a large amount of labor. Without sufficient staff, the economy cannot develop, the troops cannot be replenished, and consumption cannot be started, everything will be a castle in the air. To attract people, you must have good social order, preferential tax policies, sufficient employment opportunities, and a relaxed living environment. All of this must be backed by Qingyang, a place that is in a mess. Fortunately, my trip to the imperial capital has finally achieved satisfactory results, and the funding problem can be basically solved. After going back, it depends on how to operate it.

The second is the defense issue. You are in the middle of the gap between several forces. No matter which side, your strength is far beyond your own side. If you want to survive in this environment, you must accelerate your development and strengthen your own strength. At the same time, you must use the contradictions of the surrounding forces to win time for development. However, this is easy to say, and you have to do it carefully to calculate how to achieve the best balance effect at the lowest cost.

Thinking of this, Wufeng couldn't help but rub his temples that were slightly swollen on both sides. "Mr. Ling, can you come up and sit for a while?" Wufeng let go of the jade man in his arms and greeted Ling Tian, ​​who was following behind the carriage.

At first, Wufeng invited Ling Tianfang to ride with him, but Ling Tianfang was used to riding horses for many years and was not used to riding a car and rejected Wufeng's kindness. He rode his horse together with Wufeng's ten guards. "Oh, sir, what do you want to ask Ling?" Ling Tianfang urged the horse to follow him.

"Yes, the journey is long, and Li also wants to talk to Mr. Ling about some interesting topics." Wufeng also answered half-truely.

"Okay, Ling reluctantly can't enjoy the patent of this noble man." Ling Tianfang hesitated slightly, then agreed to Wufeng and jumped onto the carriage.

The interior space of the carriage is spacious, and it will not seem crowded even if it accommodates five or six people. Since land transportation on the mainland is very developed, especially inland areas, it is mainly overland transportation. Many car dealers operating the transportation industry have designed and manufactured various types of carriages to meet the needs of customers. There are large carriages with ordinary passengers as the main service target. They can be pulled by four horses and can be transported by up to sixteen people. Of course, their comfort will be greatly discounted. There are medium-sized carriages specially used for ordinary merchants, four horses can be transported by eight to ten people. The roof of the carriage has been specially made.

It is loaded with a certain amount of cargo; there are also small carriages prepared for some special guests. They are said to be small, but in fact they are similar in size to medium carriages. They are towed by two or four horses. The interior design and decoration of the carriage is very exquisite, with spacious space and comfortable riding. Generally, it can accommodate up to four people, and guests can even rest and sleep on it. This type of carriage is mainly used by rich people or guests with a certain status, and of course the cost will not be cheap. Wufeng rented a carriage with Dilena and the distance is long.

"When did Mr. Ling come to the Empire?" Wu Feng greeted Ling Tianfang enthusiastically and asked casually after sitting down.

"Ling is an empire that he arrived three years ago. He has traveled to some other countries in the Central and Western continents and the East continents before." Ling Tianfang also knew that Wufeng just started with this sentence, and he would definitely ask some important topics later.

"Since Mr. Ling has traveled so many places, he must have seen many people. I wonder what the situation in these countries in the Central Mainland is like? What are the outstanding talents?" Wufeng asked slowly with a geographical topographic map of the Central Mainland in his hand.

Ling Tianfang felt a little bit different from Wu Feng's sudden question about the situation in the Central Continent. He originally thought that the topic Wu Feng was going to talk about must be about the topics of the Eastern Continent and the Tanghe Empire. Unexpectedly, Wu Feng pointed the topic to the Central Continent. He pondered the following, adjusted his thoughts, and then said: "The Central Continent is my hometown. It is sandwiched between the East and West Continents. The terrain is mainly shallow hills, mixed with some deserts, basins, mountains, plains, etc., and the ethnic components are restored.

Miscellaneous and religious beliefs are also different. In the north, there are the nomadic lairs, the Indian and German kingdoms, the Principality of Meli and the Western Regions. In the middle, there are the Pasha Kingdom, the Principality of Comine, the Grand Duchy of Luzon, and the autonomous dominance of Liberty City, as well as the Principality of Degas, the Principality of Movia, the Kingdom of Badamelu, the Principality of Bicrete, and other countries. In the south, there are many small countries and city-states, and my hometown, the Kingdom of Kitan is there."

After pausing, Ling Tianfang continued to introduce: "I don't need to introduce the nomadic peoples in the north. The adults have also dealt with them. Their strength and the situation of the leaders are better than me. The Indian Kingdom is nominally a unified kingdom, but it is actually formed by more than a dozen tribal states. The largest tribal state, the chief of the Solian tribal state, is the king of the Indian Kingdom. Although this country is not small in area and has a large population, it has a part of the internal separatist idea, and the central government lacks a strong regime and army, so it can be said that it is a strong outside and a strong man.

It is not an exaggeration. In recent years, almost every year, the Luobei people in the north have been defeated by the Luobei people in the north and were forced to pay a large amount of food and livestock in exchange for peace. Although the ethnic groups in the Western Regions are different, they are similar, but they are relatively united. Compared with the Luobei people in the north, the strength is very different. Among them, Gaochang State borders the territory of the adults. I heard that the king of the Loulan State, namely the patriarch of the Loulan State, Haybal, is a scheming figure, and is still a figure. The Principal of Meli is sandwiched between the Indian Kingdom, the Western Regions and the Principal of Comine. It is not very large in area, but its geographical location is very important. The country also produces spices."

After taking the water bag sent by Dilena, Ling Tianfang was not polite and took a big sip, "The three larger countries in the central area, the Kingdom of Pasha, the Principality of Cominei, the Grand Duchy of Luzon, and the Dominion of Free City were all formed by the disintegration of the Andean Empire, the most powerful empire in the Middle Continent more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the 22nd emperor of the Andean Empire, Aleutian II, suddenly died without leaving a will. The three sons fought for the throne and finally split into three countries. This is the prototype of the current Pasha Kingdom, the Principality of Cominei and the Grand Duchy of Luzon. Aleutian II's daughter established the Self-made Liberty in the current Liberty City. Among these countries, the Kingdom of Pasha is the most powerful, and the current king is also determined to reunify the Three Kingdoms and

Yucheng has been preparing for war for nearly 20 years and secretly accumulating strength, which has also aroused the vigilance of the Duchy of Comine and the Grand Duchy of Luzon. The three countries are not at present harmonious relations. Since the Dominion of Free City has no regular army and only the Self-Defense Force, it is sandwiched between the Three Kingdoms, and its security is maintained entirely by the balance of the forces of the Three Kingdoms. However, Free City has adopted low tariffs to develop industry and commerce for nearly 100 years, is located on a major transportation route, and has not been affected by war, so industry and commerce are quite prosperous. It is the most famous metropolis in the Central Continent with a population of more than 4 million. The natural scenery in the territory is beautiful, and the ancient buildings from hundreds of years ago were also well preserved, attracting many people who come to visit. It is also a famous tourist destination in the Central Continent."

"Oh?" Wu Feng was obviously interested in his neighbors, "How is the current relationship between the Three Kingdoms?"

"It's not good, but it has not yet developed to the point of being evil. In particular, the relationship between the Grand Duchy of Luzon and the Duchy of Pasha has always been tense. Nearly half of the troops of the Grand Duchy of Luzon are placed in the area on the border with the Kingdom of Pasha."

Wufeng nodded thoughtfully, and a secret smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Ling Tianfang also knew Wu Feng's idea, "The Grand Duchy of Luzon is now controlled by Prime Minister Brentland. Grand Duke Ban Otto IV is thirteen years old and is underage. Brentland's eldest son Yuli is currently the general stationed in the southern important city of Giaxi City, with 150,000 troops, mainly guarding against threats from the southern Pasha Kingdom. The Grand Duke of Songlin City, the important city of Brentland, is stationed by Brentland's nephew Kroof, with 50,000 troops, and the important city of Vito City, the important city of northern is stationed by another general Mandici, with 50,000 troops."

Seeing Wu Feng without saying a word, Ling Tianfang continued to introduce: "Pasha Kingdom's current king Paul I was quite ambitious and wanted to restore the glorious image of the original Andean Empire. He has been committed to developing military forces for more than ten years. Now he has more than 500,000 troops, far exceeding the surrounding neighboring countries. It is more worth mentioning that the country's general Kutuzov is known as the first commander of the Central Continent. He is calm and intelligent. His 30,000 young guards under his command are very powerful and are known as the "Iron Army". This has also aroused doubts from surrounding countries, and he is worried that the Pasha Kingdom may use troops to surrounding countries in the near future."

"What kind of person is this Kutuzov?" Wu Feng finally asked about this person.

"He came from an ordinary knight family in the Pasha Kingdom. He loved military affairs since he was a child. When he was in his teens, he went to Heidelberg University in the Western Continent to study military affairs. After returning to China, he started as an ordinary soldier in the Guards and was promoted to a general within ten years. In the battle against the invasion of the coalition forces of the southern countries eleven years ago, he adopted the strategy of attacking the east and attacking the main force of the coalition forces with a piece of force. He personally led the main force to attack the coalition logistics supply center for a long distance, forcing the coalition forces to retreat, and set up an ambush on the way to retreat.

He defeated the main force of the coalition forces in one fell swoop and took advantage of the situation to attack the southern countries. Later, the countries were forced to ced the land and seek peace and compensated a large amount of money. After this battle, he became famous. Later, he won many consecutive troops in the southeast and occupied a large area of ​​land. It was not until seven years ago that the Pasha Kingdom entered the stage of resting and resting and regaining energy, and the goal turned to the north. The war he set off was calmed down." After a pause, Ling Tianfang added: "In short, he is a rare military genius."

Wufeng was also in deep thought and did not respond to Ling Tianfang's evaluation. After a while, Wufeng raised his head, "It's too late. In Mr. Ling's opinion, where should our next goal be?"

After hesitating for a moment, Ling Tianfang still said, "In my opinion, the strength of the adults is not enough to win any target around him. The first priority is to cultivate the essence and cultivate the energy and strengthen the strength. However, it might be much easier to get the Jinzhou Prefecture in the south."

"Oh? How do you say this?" Wu Feng was also wondering why Ling Tianfang was interested in Jinzhou.
