From eunuch to emperor

Dugu Jiali stopped in front, thinking that these people were going to make trouble, but Long Chen said flatly: "It's okay, I'll come."

Walking to the front, Long Chen asked: "Fathers and elders, what's the matter with you?"

A leading man stepped out and said, "My lord, we have no malicious intentions."

"Our city has been occupied by the Three Patriarchs for more than 20 years, and the officials have been changed one after another. Qianjiang County has become the world of pirates."

"It took only a few days for my lord to wipe out all the pirates. We are grateful to my lord."

"I heard that there are not enough soldiers for adults. We volunteer to join the army and defend the city for adults."

Dugu Jiali was very surprised, she did not expect that the people would take the initiative to ask to join the army to defend the city.

Long Chen was very moved, he didn't expect these people to dare to stand up.

However, Long Chen didn't plan to use them, because he didn't know whether these people were sincere or fake, he couldn't take risks.

"Thank you, but I have already mobilized troops from surrounding counties and counties. Tens of thousands of troops will enter the city tomorrow."

"If you really want to help, then I will trouble you to build some barracks and prepare some food."

"Don't worry, I will pay you for the barracks and food."

Of course what Long Chen said was a lie, there are no soldiers and horses, this is defrauding them, if there are pirate spies among them, they can be frightened.

The leading man bowed: "My lord, we really want to join the army."

Long Chen said with a smile: "My official Xinyi has taken it. Tomorrow there will be imperial soldiers and horses entering the city, so I won't trouble you."

The man felt very sorry and said, "Then we will build barracks in the city and prepare food."

Long Chen smiled and said: "Thank you!"

The men went back happily, and began to build simple houses in the open space in the city.

Dugu Jiali asked: "We are short of people, why not use them?"

Long Chen shook his head and said, "I want someone I can trust."

The recruitment this time is not only to defend Qianjiang County, but also the foundation of the Long Family Army in the future, Long Chen would rather be short than excessive.

Dugu Jiali knows how important a soldier's loyalty is, if she can't believe it, she can't use it.

After making arrangements, Long Chen returned to the room, sat on the bed, and began to practice cross-legged.

The more he fought, the more Long Chen felt that cultivation was too important.

Wuming was just the commander of Jing Tianlie's hidden guards, and Long Chen was seriously injured. If he faced Jing Tianlie and Jing Feng, their father and son would besiege him, and Long Chen would die.

Adjusting his breathing, Long Chen performed Yin Cultivation Dafa and Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix Jue at the same time, the martial energy in his body flowed slowly, and a cool feeling in his dantian slowly flowed through his body along the meridians.

This is the medicinal power of Dragon Ball.

Xu Zhi really spent all his money, the effect of Dragon Ball is so magical.

The pure martial energy in Long Chen's dantian was condensing, slowly gathering into the shape of flames. This process was originally slow, but Dragon Ball seemed to have the effect of speeding it up.

Long Chen was immersed in the wonderful feeling of cultivation, time passed by little by little.

...

When I opened my eyes again, it was already noon the next day.

Long Chen stood up, the martial energy in his body circulated, the air in the room suddenly flowed, and the paper on the table moved.

Dragon Ball is indeed a magic medicine, one night of cultivation is worth more than half a year, and now Long Chen is only separated from the Martial Emperor Realm by a layer of window paper.

Dugu Jiali heard the movement, knocked on the door and came in, said: "My lord, there are many people gathered outside the city. They heard that the pirates are going to invade massively, and they want to enter the city to escape. They will not dare to make a decision in the end. Please make a decision, Your lord."

Long Chen quickly walked out of the Governor's Mansion, went to the city wall, and saw tens of thousands of ordinary people outside the east gate.

Dugu Jiali said: "There must be pirates among them, so the general dare not open the door."

Of course Long Chen knew about this problem, if when the pirates invaded, a group of people suddenly appeared inside to cooperate with each other, things would be very troublesome.

Long Chen stood on the east gate and shouted to the people below: "Fathers and elders, there is going to be a war here soon, and it's not safe for you to come in. You go west, there is a farm there, you live there temporarily, wait After the battle, I will give each of you 3 taels of silver to go home."

There is a large farm in the west, which used to be Xu Zhi's property. There is a grass shed there for temporary living and food, so temporary settlement is not a problem.

The people shouted from below: "Master, let us enter the city, we are not safe outside the city, please."

The other people followed suit, looking very miserable.

Long Chen couldn't bear it in his heart, but war is like this, if Long Chen let it in with a soft heart, the spies would do things inside, Qianjiang County was breached, and the pirates would definitely slaughter the city.

At that time, the 10,000+ people will all die, and a little unbearable will lead to chaos and big schemes, Long Chen will not let go.

"You go to the farm, I guarantee that you will have enough food every day, and you will never be hungry."

Long Chen asked Dugu Jiali to find a local to lead the way, who would give 50 taels of silver.

Where there is money, there are people, and Dugu Jiali quickly found someone to lead the way.

Long Chen didn't open the door, but tied the guide with a rope and let him down.

Someone led the way, but the county city could not enter, and the people slowly followed to the farms in the west.

After the people left, there were more than 2 people left outside the gate, including men, women and children, and many of them were men.

These men were tall, short, fat and thin, but they had a strong temperament. They held some shovels and forks in their hands, and some held iron spears.

Long Chen was overjoyed, and asked: "Are you here to join the army?"

The man below replied: "We heard from Miss Wu's family that this place is recruiting soldiers, so here we are."

Long Chen immediately said: "Open the door, let them in!"

The east city gate opened, and Long Chen went out of the city in person. The leader was a burly man, who was actually half a head taller than Long Chen, with scars on his face, obviously left over from the battle.

A pair of big round eyes, thick eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a generous face, a tiger's back, a wolf's waist, and praying mantis legs, it looks like a soldier.

"What's your name?"

Long Chen asked.

The man replied loudly: "Han Ziping."

Long Chen asked: "Has all the family members come?"

Han Ziping looked behind him and said, "My mother, my mother-in-law, and my little daughter are all here."

Long Chen happily said: "Let's go into the city."

Dugu Jiali immediately asked the soldiers to take them in and settle down. More than 2 people entered the city at the same time, and their family members lived in the prepared barracks. Children have hot water, food and clothes.

The man who came to join him was very happy to see his parents, wife and children settled down well.

They didn't expect Long Chen to be so kind to his family, and they were willing to follow Long Chen.

There is a tradition in the Long family army. The family members of the army are settled by the Long family, so there is no worries. Even if they die on the battlefield, the family members can live well.

Therefore, the number of the Long family army is not large, only [-], but they can sweep the world.

Now that Long Chen is rebuilding the army, he naturally has to uphold this tradition.

Long Chen called Han Ziping over and asked, "How many of these people do you know?"

Excluding family members, there are more than 4 men who can serve as soldiers.

Han Ziping said: "I don't know much, but I basically know the leader."
