Chapter 124 Winter Snow

Emperor Han’s reward for Huo Hai was only one more title than Zhang Yan’s reward for history. This thing actually had no practical significance. For example, Sun Jian’s Marquis of Wucheng did not elevate his political status to the same level as the princes. When the princes competed for hegemony, he could only commit himself to Yuan Shu.

However, it is completely different to Huo Hai. Although Shunping County is just a small county with a population of less than 800 households, it is located in Hebei. With this title granted by the imperial court, Huo Hai naturally extended the actual control area of ​​Heishan Village for more than 200 miles west of Heishan Village.

In this way, Huo Hai's actual control area reached a place as large as more than 300 miles from east to west and more than 400 miles from north to south, and almost occupied half of the scope of Zhongshan Kingdom.

Moreover, his territory has a great geographical advantage, because it is adjacent to the Taihang Mountains in the west and Baiyangdian in the east, and has huge geographical defensive advantages on both sides. As long as the troops from Youzhou Zhuo County in the north are protected, more than 80% of the actual control area will be completed. Because the territory of Wuji Zhen in the south is the territory of Wuji, Huo Hai and the Zhen family have a cooperative relationship, and the Guo family is also imaging it, so it is impossible for the soldiers from the south to cross them directly and fight to the Heishanzhai Gate.

In this way, Huohai can let everyone cultivate millions of acres of fertile land near the entire Heishan Mountain.

Even if the Zhen family and Huo Hai broke up one day, he was not afraid. The walls of Heishan Village could block the troops from the south, allowing them to retreat west or north calmly. This is also the main reason why Zhang Yan could hold on in Heishan Village for so long in history. Yuan Shao did not take over Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou and surrounded them all within his territory, and basically had no way to do anything to him.

Of course, the most important thing is that after having a serious city fief, it is very conducive to Huo Hai's gathering of the people in the north. Now he can recruit soldiers and horses in a legitimate way? Zhang Gong can at least be in front of the Han Emperor? Help him win the organization of a 100,000 army. As long as the people under his rule are better than the people in other prefectures and counties within one or two years? There is no need to worry about the people in the surrounding areas not being able to rule him? Continue to enrich his war potential and economic capital.

Statistics of households, allocating food for winter, as well as various work tasks, and other chores are very cumbersome, and the fields cultivated next year need to be allocated to households one by one? Huo Hai asked Guo Tu to complete all these tasks before the Spring Festival? There was not enough staff, so he found a way to recruit talents. Heishanzhai now has money to pay talents and can give them corresponding official positions.

As for Huo Hai himself? In addition to receiving people from the Yellow Turban Army who came from all over the world every day, he also had to carry out a comprehensive reorganization of the Black Mountain Army.

He would not expand the number of troops a lot at once. After all, the Black Mountain Army is full of professional soldiers. Every day, they practice hard to kill enemies and have very little time to engage in production? The special forces of this era have a huge daily expense for raising such professional soldiers? With the current situation in Heishanzhai, it is impossible to afford it.

So? Even when Zhang Gong left, even if he trained a 100,000 army in the north, the court would not care about him? But Huo Hai finally controlled the number of troops to about 30,000? Compared with the total population of about 3 million under his rule at the end of the year, it was considered one of a hundred.

The 30,000 troops are divided into seven types: cavalry, chariot, infantry, crossbowmen, sailors, logistics soldiers, medical soldiers, and seven types.

Among them, the cavalry was divided into two battalions, the Flying Cavalry and the Thin Armor Cavalry. The number of the Flying Cavalry increased to one thousand, which were light cavalry that quickly marched and stepped on the formation. The number of the Xuan Armor Cavalry was only five hundred, and it was heavy cavalry with both men and horses in steel armor.

The commander of the Qifeng Cavalry is still Chu Yan and the commander of the Xuanjia Cavalry. Everyone chose Zhang Niujiao as the one. However, due to Zhang Niujiao's physical problems, the actual commander of the army was Sun Qing, the most capable general under his subordinate.

The newly added chariot soldiers were born from the chariot and horse transport team, with a number of people reaching 3,000, and a thousand chariots were driven by. The commander was Du Chang, and Liu Fu and Zhang Ji were two deputy commanders.

The number of people did not increase or decrease much, but the infantry was only 12,000, and Wang Meng was still the commander. In addition to the three thousand heavy infantry he himself, three light infantry battalions were also divided into three deputy commanders, Liu Shi, Xu He and Wu Ba, each commanding 3,000 people.

Huo Hai did not increase the number of infantry because Heishanzhai had no military plan to expand externally in a few years. The number of regular soldiers only needed to meet the defense of the parody and maintain order. Moreover, even if he wanted to fight against the outside world, he could only use cavalry and chariot soldiers, because they were the fastest-attacking troops.

The reason why crossbow soldiers were listed as a single military is because Huo Hai had many plans for the subsequent development of the military. Simply put, he wanted to specially train a group of people who were used to design, manufacture and use long-range strike weapons.

Currently, it is led by Wang Du, who escaped from Dongjun, with a number of 3,000 people, and may be expanded in the future.

The number of sailors was because the conditions in the north were limited, and only two thousand were recruited, led by Sima Ju, and Liu Pi, who came from the south and knew a little about water, was deputy.

The logistics soldiers included 3,000 engineer battalions. Due to the leadership of the Poison, the two thousand people in the manufacturing battalions were led by Bai Rao and transferred to operate 2,000 people. They were led by Guan Gu. These people were not actually regular troops and basically did not participate in the war directly. However, what they studied in daily life was all about how to enable the soldiers of Heishanzhai to fight better.

The last medical soldiers, including about 1,500, led by Tao Sheng, will receive unified medical technology training and be responsible for treating all the people under Huo Hai's rule. During the war, hundreds or even more than a thousand people would be drawn to join the army at any time.

After the establishment of these seven military branches with clear division of labor is completed, it will take a period of study and training to achieve results. Huo Hai is not in a hurry. In addition to spending some time every day to grasp discipline and train, he spends most of his time in classics related to Taoism.

In a world with extraordinary energy, those who can determine the strength of these extraordinary abilities are always the use of these extraordinary abilities.

Why was Zhang Lu in Hanzhong able to force Liu Zhang to lead Liu Bei into Sichuan? It was not because he had the power left over from the Heavenly Master Dao.

The reason why various families can stand firm is not because their families worship these extraordinary powers that ordinary people cannot shake them at all.

Huo Hai’s biggest advantage in this world is that he has experienced the era of information explosion, and he is more accurate in seeing things and can focus on key points.

On New Year's Eve, around the third day, Huo Hai had already come out of his room with his horse spear and sword. In Ji's words, if he could not move his muscles and bones before the rooster crowed, today's practice would be greatly reduced.

In Ge Xuan's words, if he could not run for thirty miles before the rooster crowed, then his light body technique would never be able to be practiced in his lifetime.

In Zuo Ci's words, if Huo Hai cannot complete external cultivation when the first ray of sunlight rises on the ground every day, breathe and mobilize internal energy to operate more than a hundred times, and use his best body to absorb the first ray of purple qi that accompanies the sun rises, then he will have no hope of entering the peak of internal energy within ten years, and it is even more impossible to break through to the level of Qi and energy.

Why can Wu Kui fight against three peak internal strength masters by one person?

It is not because of his mysterious moves, how powerful Taoist and witchcraft are, but because he has the experience of breaking through to the level of Qi and energy. In his understanding of battle, he is one level higher than the three of them. It is just that in order to keep his body in the best state, he dissipated his internal energy and mainly cultivated muscles and bones, so he could not directly defeat the three of them with higher-level power.

Just imagine, as soon as he sees his opponent's move, he will immediately know the opponent's power operation route, and then interrupt or prepare in advance. Who can defeat him?

Based on the above various practice subjects, Huo Hai had to get up at the second day of the day to practice. Don’t think that if the war stops, he can relax. Now he sleeps for up to two and a half hours a day, about five hours in the next life.

"Young master's strength is so rapid. I think he should be able to defeat Guan Hai from Qingzhou in a few days." Chu Yu, who also practices in the morning every day, always starlight will be shining when he sees Huo Hai's sword-dressing spear. He hears his sound during practice making great progress than usual, and he is very surprised.

"It's hard for him to become a strong person if he gathers the cultivation resources accumulated by three million people, but it's hard for him to become a strong man, but Guan Hai is a master in the late stage of internal strength. Even if he enters the middle stage of internal strength, he may not be able to defeat him." Zhang Ning, who had swung his gun for more than a thousand times, turned his head and looked at Huo Hai, and said to Chu Yu.

After fighting with generals of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, she felt deeply that her martial power was insufficient. Although the upper limit of a woman's talent was here and it was impossible to compare with a man, she still wanted to try to hit the late stage of internal strength, or even reach the peak, which required her to work several times more than others.

"No matter how powerful that big man is, wasn't he defeated by Guan Yunchang's third sword and almost lost his life? I think he is just a fool. He knows how to eat silly all day long, but he has never seen how he practiced martial arts." Seeing Zhang Ning's ambition to extinguish his majesty, Chu Yu said dissatisfied.

At present, there are still many internal conflicts in Heishan Village. The old people in the village are a group of people. People who came from other places are divided into different regions and are divided into several groups. Chu Yu is not thinking of those who came from other places as his own. Fortunately, there is no war now, and Huo Hai has time to let these people get together and get along. If he really pulls these people directly to the battlefield, there will be problems.

"You are afraid you don't understand how great it is to be able to hold three swords on Guan Yunchang's hand. Even I was almost defeated by Yan Liang's move. Guan Yunchang was only stronger than Yan Liang." Zhang Ning shook his head and sighed.

"How did they practice so powerful?" Baoer, who had stopped practicing swords, asked curiously.

She is too young and practices too hard, which can easily hurt her body. Zhang Ning formulated a relatively light training plan for her and added some cultural courses to him. In this way, when Huo Hai ran errands and delivered letters in the future, he would at least know what Huo Hai was going to say.

"Some people are so talented, just like Guan Hai, who is born with great strength. Without any master's guidance, they can naturally enter the late stage of internal strength through their usual efforts.

As for Guan Yunchang, he should have been given a famous teacher since childhood to teach his martial arts. He had an adventure before Yicheng! Among the unbeatable people he said, he was in the top five, which should be correct. If Sun Jian was replaced by him in that battle that day, Wu Kui said he would not have to escape with injuries." Zhang Ning sighed.

Practicing martial arts requires innate conditions, and everyone's innate conditions are different. Many people are just martial arts masters who come out of the womb. They can easily be stronger than others. Some people have been weak and sick since childhood, and they can survive for twenty-three years and are strong.

In fact, Zhang Ning himself is also a type of pride of heaven. However, compared with a guy like Guan Yu, he is far behind. He only hopes that in this life, he will not fight head-on with such a person on the battlefield!

The three girls were chatting, the snowflakes that were stopped in the air for the middle of the night began to float again. These martial arts practitioners are not afraid of the cold, but the snow on the ground is too thick, which also affects their activities.

"Click~!"

A simple wooden house in the village could not bear the weight of snow in the ceiling, and it collapsed, but there was no one living inside, and a few screams of sheep came.

Huo Hai put away his horse spear and ran over to see the situation. The soldier who was in charge of the night rushed over quickly.

"Young Master, thank you for letting everyone live in the cave. This is the seventeenth house that collapsed tonight." The team leader led the team leader in charge of the team leading the people to pull out the snow and roof, as Huo Haihui reported.

The Heishan Village is very fast to build houses, and the new houses are all brick and tile houses, so there is little possibility of being crushed by snow, but it is impossible to live in three million people. The faster way than building a house is to dig a hole. A group of people can dig a cave that can sleep dozens of people in a day. There is geothermal heat and warmth. Unexpectedly, this method of being forced to avoid many casualties.

"The snow will continue to fall. After dawn, I will tell you that auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. The harvest in our fields will definitely be good next year, so I will give you a boost." Huo Hai said lightly, although he continued to start practicing, he began to think about things in his heart.

Fortunately, I stopped this war. Otherwise, the heavy snow that lasted for a month would have caused more than half of the three million people in Heishan Village to die. The actual conditions would not allow them to make big moves at all, otherwise they would be seeking death.

After dawn, Huo Hai began to sit east on the stone platform at the highest point of the mountain village, breathing and breathing. The heavy snow like goose feathers quickly covered him with a layer of thicker and thicker, but he did not move at all.

"Very good, the snow is pressing down on your body and your internal strength is already very restrained. If you can practice qi power in the future, it will definitely be extremely pure." When Huo Hai's morning class was about the same time, Yu Ji, who was holding a paper fan to block the snow, came over and smiled.

He was also a person who had reached the level of Qi and energy, and knew some of the feelings at that level. However, when Huo Hai saw him coming to the snow to talk to him in person, something must have happened.

"Old Yu, your body is no longer good, so you should rest in the house! If you have something to come, just call me to come and say it." Huo Hai stopped his gong and stood up, trembling all over. All the snow that had accumulated on him had dissipated, including the frosty white on his hair and eyebrows disappeared.

This is the power of internal energy. After it is activated, the body is like a stove, and the surface of the body is naturally very vivid, and even frost is difficult to touch. This is also the reason why powerful generals rarely die by harsh environments on the battlefield. Internal energy and internal breath will greatly enhance their survivability.

"This snow is very abnormal. Maybe it's God who is doing the trouble. I started a divination this morning and found that there will be a major change in the world's fortune. There may be a new revelation in the chapter of God. You can open it and take a look."

"Is that right? I haven't flipped through that thing for a long time." Huo Hai seemed to remember it and got up and went to his study.
Chapter completed!
