What should I do if I accidentally come to the ancient times?

Zhao Hao looked at A Xing who was sitting at the bottom, and subconsciously asked, "A Xing, what about you, do you have any ideas?"

In fact, he was just asking in a formulaic way, and he never thought that a young man like A Xing could come up with a good solution.

Ah Xing really couldn't think of any good way, he could only say with a little shame: "I can't think of any good way, or, how about we learn from Xue Man's department and issue a call-up order?"

call-up order?

In fact, Zhao Hao also thought about this method.

However, there are also disadvantages to issuing a call-up order, because those small tribes are not tribes under the Haotian Department, why would they accept your call-up order!

There is no doubt that the call-up order will definitely arouse people's resentment.

However, this method also has something to learn from, but this caliber needs to be changed, so it can't appear so tough.

Zhao Hao thought about it carefully, and then concluded: "What everyone said is good, I think it's almost the same if they are combined together."

Blend!

How to blend?

When Ah Hua and the others heard this, they were all stupefied.

Zhao Hao then explained: "For example, the recruitment order that A Xing mentioned is a good idea, but it is a bit too strong. If it is combined with A Shan's statement, it will be more appropriate if it is soft. We can issue a recruitment list , List all kinds of required labor, and give corresponding remuneration, whoever is willing to do it, immediately pay a few months or even half a year's remuneration in advance, so that the young and strong of those tribes will definitely rush to work in our Haotian Department. "

This method is indeed quite good, everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the words.

Zhao Hao then continued: "However, this recruitment list may not be feasible, because those stubborn tribal leaders definitely don't want us to recruit young men under them, and they will definitely hinder us. At this time , we are going to combine Ah Hua's proposal again."

Having said that, he deliberately paused, drank a glass of kumiss, and took a few mouthfuls of lamb leg.

He wanted his generals to use their brains and think about it.

After a while, he continued: "If these stubborn tribal leaders obstruct us, what should we do? It's very simple. We use threats and lures to intimidate those tribal leaders so that they don't dare to obstruct us. At the same time, lure those young and strong tribes, let them follow us and come to work in our Haotian Department. As long as we use force to suppress those stubborn tribal leaders, it will definitely not be a problem to recruit some young and strong to work. In this way Come, we will not cause dissatisfaction among the young and strong of those tribes, on the contrary, they will thank us."

The generals couldn't help nodding when they heard the words.

This method is indeed good.

Zhao Hao then continued: "However, this method is still a bit too time-consuming. We need to speed up the progress. Otherwise, it may be impossible to subdue all the tribes in the southern part of the prairie this year. At this time, we You can combine A Hua's method and A Xing's method, and learn from the Xue Man tribe to find a puppet who can replace their tribal leader, and then kill those stubborn tribal leaders and help this puppet take the position. Horde is easy."

The so-called "small quantity is not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband", to deal with those tribal leaders who have a strong desire for power and are stubborn, in the end, there is still one word, kill!

It's just that you have to lay the groundwork before killing, so that his subordinates are as close as possible to the Haotian Department.

This requires the battalion leaders to operate carefully.

Zhao Hao finally reminded: "One thing, you must pay attention to it. When looking for puppets, you can't look for people with bad intentions. You must look for people who are only thinking about the tribal people."

Chapter 228 New Road

Nanman Mountains, between Nether Valley and Haotian Castle, on a towering mountain peak.

Zhao Hao raised his hand to block the glare of the sun, carefully scanning the surrounding mountains and ravines for an unknown amount of time before he sighed slightly and put his hand down.

He wanted to build a road from Nether Valley to Haotian Castle.

Because, if he continued to explore south, the boat trip would take more than half a day, and he could no longer make the trip back and forth in a day.

In other words, it would take at least two days to continue sailing south and hunt.

In this way, there will be more troubles. It is not a joke to rest for one night in the mountains of Nanman. If there is no protective measure, people must be arranged to guard all night at night. , and the further south you go, the more time you will spend on this waterway.

At that time, if you are on the road for a day or two or even ten or eight days, the hunting efficiency will be too low.

So, he thought of building roads and continued to explore eastward.

He has already roughly learned about the situation of the Nanman Mountains on the map collected by the Great Elder of Nanhua. The width of the Nanman Mountains in the east-west direction is at least a thousand miles, and at most he explores eastward at the two locations of Haotian Castle and Nether Valley. About fifty miles away.

There is no way, there is no road in the Nanman mountains. If it is on foot, a master like him can only travel about fifty miles in half a day. Including the return time, he can explore fifty miles east at most, otherwise , he would have to spend the night in the Nanman mountains.

Moreover, he used to worry that if he explored to the east, he would meet the masters of the Xueman tribe. After all, the old nest of the Xueman tribe was just to the east of the Nanman mountains, so he didn't dare to go too deep.

However, after looking at the map, he understood that the masters of the Xueman tribe can penetrate about a hundred miles from east to west at most. It is too dangerous.

That is to say, as long as he doesn't go east to the Nanman mountains for more than a thousand miles, he won't meet the masters of the Xueman tribe.

This is quite a large area, and there are many strange beasts and beasts close to the gods in it, so he naturally has to find a way to get these resources into his pocket.

The way he thought of was to build roads, or in other words, to build roads while building forts. Simply put, he first explored to the east, and in the explored areas, he chose a suitable location to build a fort, sent people to garrison, and then moved all the forts. Connect with roads.

In this way, it may take more time in the early stage, but once the forts and roads are repaired, it doesn't take much time to hunt in the middle.

After all, they have horses, and they have a distance of tens of miles, which is a matter of hours. It is not a problem to make several round trips a day, and as long as one road is built, it can cover all areas within fifty miles to the left and right of the road. , the hunting efficiency is much higher.

Moreover, there is no need to send people to garrison the roads in the Nanman mountains, as long as they are repaired, they will be completed, and ordinary wild beasts and strange beasts will not destroy them.

Of course, fortresses need to be garrisoned, especially fortresses in the Nanman mountains. When the surrounding areas have not been fully explored in the early stage, each fortress must be stationed with a master with over ten thousand catties. Accidents can happen.

If only his five hundred personal guards can defend Nether Valley and Haotian Fort, it would be considered pretty good.

So where did the people who garrison the fort come from?

Of course, he also has a plan for this.

This time, he not only made a plan to expand his power in the next year and take down the west wing of the Xueman tribe. up.

After taking down the western wing of the Xue Man tribe, his focus of development was on the Nanman Mountains.

After all, as long as the west wing of the Xueman tribe is captured, the prairie will be basically safe. At that time, it will be enough to send one or two battalions to stay behind, and the remaining troops can be pulled to the Nanman mountains.

In this way, not only can they hunt more alien beasts and increase their strength by being close to divine beasts, but they can even guard some alien trees or sacred trees, leaving a foundation for future generations to develop.

At this time, the strength of the general of the Eighth Battalion had already exceeded ten thousand catties, and he did not need to take action at all to subdue those stubborn tribes. Therefore, he brought Ji Rushuang and Ji Wei to the southern barbarians between Haotian Castle and Nether Valley. Hunting in the mountains, while inspecting the terrain, to see how to build the road from Haotian Castle to Nether Valley.

This road looks bad to repair!

Because the terrain in the Nanman Mountains is too complicated. Although there are many valleys and ravines that can be borrowed, many of the valleys and ravines are not connected together. Just dig it out.

As for these mountainsides, the shortest ones are tens of meters long, and the tallest ones may not be more than a hundred meters high. I don't know how much time it will take to dig them up.

When he was frowning and thinking there, Ji Wei couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, have you encountered any trouble?"

This Ji Wei actually insisted on following them, because he didn't want to rely on Zhao Hao's charity, he wanted to hunt strange beasts by himself.

To be honest, with his abilities, hunting strange beasts in the Nanman mountains is simply seeking death, but with the protection of Zhao Hao and Ji Rushuang, there is no problem.

Coincidentally, Zhao Hao also wanted to hunt separately from Ji Rushuang in the future, and the two of them would each bring a few experts with over [-] jin of strength to explore in different directions, so that the hunting efficiency would be doubled, and Ji Wei was the test subject he brought out. .
