The Jingjue Army and the royal army directly led by Ye Qinglin looked like there were 30,000 troops, but they were all pieced together, making it easy to attack, but it was difficult to get any advantage in front of veterans like Zhang Xiong, Zhang Jun and Kong Peng.

At present, we can only take advantage of the situation where the rebels were unable to fully control the Pinglu Oasis, and the vast sandy sea of ​​two thousand miles away from the Black Mountain. The Jingjue Protectorate and the Ye royal army also seized the time to rest and restore their vitality.

Chen Hai still hopes to lure the rebels across the vast sea of ​​sand to attack. Only when they wait for their work can they have a greater chance of winning.

Otherwise, even if the situation here settles first, it is necessary to cultivate within the Pinglu Oasis to support the forces to resist the Zhang traitors. After being sure, lead 30,000 to 40,000 elite troops directly into the Pinglu Oasis, which is the opportunity to decide the outcome with Zhang Xiong, Kong Peng and other traitors.

Now we still need to do some basic business.

In the past, Chen Hai wanted to send several survey teams to survey the underground rock formations near Heishan to verify his speculation. This originally took two or three years to do it, but at this time, Ge Xuanqiao, who had the cultivation level and entered the late stage of the Daodan realm, came over, and many things were simple.

Chen Hai did not hold any position in the newly established Jingjue Protectorate, and wanted to get out and verify his speculation as soon as possible.

Once it is verified that the sand sea near Montenegro is a large rock layer that can prevent streams and rivers from infiltration, they will be able to start diversion of streams and rivers this year, and the oasis area near Montenegro will gradually expand next year and the year after.

This is the fundamental reason why the Jingjue Protectorate can truly take root in the depths of the sand and promote the military system of the palace.

Even if Ye family was helped to successfully restore the country in the later period, Ye Qinglin could not have set up a land of aquatic plants in the Pinglu Oasis to gain a foothold in the Jingjue Protectorate.

Chen Hai and Ge Xuanqiao spent nearly two months touching the sand sea around Heishan Mountain, and finally confirmed that the 300-mile range around Heishan Mountain was actually a whole concave black sandstone layer with a depth of between 30 to 50 meters.

If all the sand layers covering the rock layer are removed, you will find that around Montenegro is like a shallow trough basin surrounded by mountains, with dozens of oasis outside, which happens to be the main peak of the crater surrounding the shallow trough basin.

Chen Hai and Ge Xuanqiao returned to Baishiyu with such a conclusion. In addition to Dong Ning, Ran Hu and others, Han Qingyuan, Han Jian, Guo Hongzong and others who wanted to lead their tribes to take root here were even more excited. They could understand how important this verification was at this moment, but they were still confused: "It's not too difficult to do this. Why didn't anyone except the national envoy think about doing this before?"

Chen Hai smiled slightly, not trying to explain anything.

The civil society in Yanzhou is essentially a farming civilization. In the depths of the Jinzhou desert, the civil society has a lower level of civilization than Yanzhou. Although the sects and sects in Yan and Jin areas have developed quite well in refining weapons and talisman arrays, this has nothing to do with civil society.

It is this huge barrier that limits the thinking of many people.

After verifying that the underground of Heishan is indeed a trough-shaped rock formation, it is natural to do what you need to do next.

The Jingjue Protectorate still wanted to move back to Heishan. The simple city built in Baishiyu was handed over to the Western Qiang royal army led by Ye Qinglin to garrison so that more Ye family remnants who fled north were recruited nearby.

In addition to diverting the flow of the Broken Liaison River and lakes formed by Yongquan in steps to the inner side of the Montenegro in the oasis, we also need to find water veins near the Montenegro, digging through the rock formation and digging out more spring wells, and speeding up the process of water storage in shallow trough rock formations so that larger scale plants can be bred as soon as possible.

After two months of discussion and research, the Jingjue Protectorate also came up with a plan to implement the military system that everyone recognized.

The Jingjue Protectorate plans to set up fifty military palaces that combine soldiers, farmers and peasants on the basis of many tribes.

In addition to the twelve military palaces in Moyue Lake and twenty-four military palaces in Heishan, the Jingjue Protectorate also set up three to five military palaces in Luzhou such as Jinxiangling, Heixiao Cliff, Guhuo Mountain, etc., to strive to organize the bravery of many tribes, the released slaves and horse thieves to be subdued into fifty military palaces in the fastest time.

Each military residence has a military residence that ranges from 200 to 500. In addition to farming and pastoral activities, training in leisure, and gathering in wartime, they are also responsible for building military residences. At the same time, Dong Ning also plans to allocate fifty black-feathered giant eagles and corresponding imperial eagles to each military residence.

On the one hand, this is to strengthen the connection between Zhuzhechong Prefecture and Jingjue Protectorate.

After all, only ferocious spirit birds like the Black Feathered Giant Vulture can quickly operate two or three thousand kilograms of goods within a range of more than a thousand miles, and can also monitor the enemy situation in the depths of the desert; this will help strengthen the control of the Jingjue Protectorate's control over the subordinate Zhechong Mansion.

At the same time, the maintenance cost of each black-feathered giant vulture is also distributed to the military palace below, so that the black-feathered giant vulture can prey on its own in the depths of the desert on a larger scale.

Otherwise, one hundred black-feathered giant eagles could have eaten away the Jingjue Protectorate's Mansion.

Of course, the Jingjue Protectorate will also provide support for the following areas such as spiritual medicine, armor and combat equipment.

After the implementation of the military system of the prefecture, the Jingjue Protectorate could have more than 23,000 guards, while the regular soldiers of the Jingjue Protectorate were controlled below 5,000 people.

In this way, in addition to sufficient labor for farming, animal husbandry and water conservancy transformation, even if there is still a gap in the food and grass consumed by Jingjue Protectorate, it is not as terrifying as before.

The more than a thousand craftsmen who were previously incorporated from the villages were assigned to the military prefectures in a small number to ensure that the military prefectures had certain agricultural tools, armor construction, whistle building and water conservancy construction capabilities, most of them were concentrated in Heishan City and organized into the Shaojiang Prefecture Mansion directly led by the Jingjue Protectorate.

The Jingjue Protectorate cannot rely on Hexi's aid without limit, while the agricultural and animal husbandry output of Moyue Lake and Heishan is too limited, so we can only find ways to make up for the gap from minerals and industrial fields.

Chen Hai cleaned many thief villages and seized more than 5,000 kilograms of black fetal essence iron. This is not accidental. In Black Mountain and Moyue Lake, the black sandstone layer is rich in black sand gold and black fetal essence iron.

The horse thieves plundered so many slaves. In addition to forcing them to build armor and cities, they also had the purpose of mined from the mine veins and smelting black sand essence gold and black fetal essence iron.

There are still a few ore veins that can produce black fetal iron in Heishan and Moyue Lake. However, in the past, the smelting process of smelting black fetal iron in the Zhezhai Village was too backward and the output was very limited. Dong Ning planned to invite two craftsmen from Juquanling.

If Heishan can refine five or six thousand kilograms of black fetal essence iron every year, it will make up for a large amount of deficit.

"I also want you to write a letter to Juquanling to mention this matter..."

After Guo Hongjue and others discussed the matter and left, Dong Ning told Chen Hai.

"You write a letter to Zhou Jingyuan, Zhao Wuhui, they will not reject you," Chen Hai smiled. "This is not the time to return to Juquanling, and there is no need to write a letter to avoid unnecessary interference to them."

"What kind of person are you? Why don't you want to stay and help me?" Dong Ning looked at Chen Hai's face in a fixed manner, and resisted the urge to reach out to touch the scars on his face.

"Whether it is the Ye family or the people of the Western Qiang Kingdom, they all need a Mrs. Jingjue who can be loyal to this land. Only such a Mrs. Jingjue will deserve their loyalty or fight side by side. What they expect is not a Mrs. Jingjue who has become a vassal of the Dong family or others. This is the key to my position as the "Envoyant of the Great Yan Kingdom", but I must not serve in the Jingjue Protectorate," Chen Hai smiled, "Besides, even without me, you have done a good job."

"If no one helps me, I can only grit my teeth and persevere." Dong Ning said resentfully.

Chen Hai also smiled in his heart. Nowadays, there are many people talking, some secrets, and some things need to be found alone to tell Dong Ning.

*********************************

Dong Ning had to preside over the many matters of the relocation of the Jingjue Protectorate and the Jingjue Army to Heishan City. At this time, Heishan City was too simple and would continue to be added later. However, Chen Hai ignored these trivial matters and returned to Heishan to find Ning Chan'er in advance.

Ge Xuanqiao was in Baishiyu at this time, and Ge Xuanqiao was the only one who could make Ning Chan'er afraid of it.

Apart from being afraid that Ge Xuanqiao would not be able to escape the necessary contact, Ning Chan'er would rather go far away from Baishiyu. During this period, he returned to Heishan alone and opened up a cave where she was seducing deep in the desert on the northern slope of Heishan. During this period, Chen Hai and Ge Xuanqiao walked through the sand sea near Heishan, and Ning Chan'er basically stayed there to seduce and study elixirs.

As soon as Chen Hai stepped into the deserted back mountain of Black Mountain, he faintly heard a terrifying wail from the belly of the mountain. He flew to Ning Chan'er's cave. The wailing from the belly of the mountain became clearer and clearer. He knew that Ning Chan'er was using Zhou Datong and other prisoners to test medicine.

He was already ruthless enough, and he felt so nervous when he heard this scream.

Zhao Ying, the daughter of Han Cainiang, guarded the cave with a pale face. She couldn't bear to see Zhou Datong and other prisoners ask Ning Chan'er to take it over to test the medicine, but this almost heart-wrenching scream was also a torture to reach her ears.

"If you don't want to hear this cry, I'll send you a meditation posture!" Chen Hai smiled, stretched out his finger to Zhao Ying's bright forehead, and directly condensed the meditation secret form into his spiritual consciousness, turning it into a scroll, and penetrated it from the middle of her eyebrows into the depths of her mind.

Zhao Ying had just begun to practice with Ning Chan'er's foundation building. Chen Hai penetrated the secret image of Jingxin into the depths of her mind, and could only condense very short numbers and disappear in a short time.

After all, Zhao Ying is not a strong man in the Mingqiao Realm. She can always lock this secret scroll with the true meaning of the secret, and she can't remember too much in such a short time, but she has to be much better than others who teach her one by one. The follow-up depends more on her own understanding.

"Thank you, the envoy..." Zhao Ying murmured, not daring to look at Chen Hai's eyes in the eye.

Logically speaking, she and her mother are in front of her, not to mention that she has an unclear relationship with this person, and she will not know how to deal with this person for a while.

Chen Hai didn't expect that this matter would go on. In just two or three months, Zhao Ying had already opened a mysterious vein, which laid a strong foundation for future cultivation. On the one hand, it was a good qualification. Ning Chan'er might have used her to test the medicine.
