When Zhang Yang read all the information, he was naturally overwhelmed, but he did not forget the potential threat to the north. What if the red-skinned monster wanted to take an unconventional approach? So the next step, of course, was to expand the army, prepare for war, develop the population, and improve people's livelihood.
"It's time to summon Duan Jiusi, the founding emperor of the Great Chu."
Zhang Yang opened the village construction order and found the name Duan Jiusi, but the next second, his expression became extremely strange, because the cost of summoning Duan Jiusi actually required 23 points of royal energy.
What the hell?
A legendary master craftsman only needs a little bit of kingly energy, the first-generation Stone King Wu Lei only needs two points of kingly energy, and the second-generation Stone King Wu Ya only needs three points of kingly energy. Why does this guy need 23 points? Is this a bug?
After being stunned for a long time, Zhang Yang could only give up, but he was extremely shocked in his heart, because he thought of a possibility. Could it be that Duan Jiusi, the founding emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, has already reached an extraordinary level of strength? Otherwise, it is impossible that he would be so unlucky!
"If Duan Jiusi is above the extraordinary, then he is still alive now, or he has lived for a long time in history. This is not impossible. You should know that Duan Jiusi has defeated 1,000 latent dragons from various races, including the monster race, the demon race, the human race, and the ghost race. Then he may be able to get enough foundation-building pills to start the job transfer task and finally succeed in building the foundation."
"From what I feel right now, if a person can build a foundation, his life span can definitely exceed 300 years. But in history, the Great Chu Dynasty only lasted for more than 300 years. What does this mean? It can only mean that Duan Jiusi also obtained the village building order and he left this world. It's really scary to think about it. I can't summon this guy anymore."
Zhang Yang's eyes were solemn, and then he hesitated on the names of the two historical figures.
One is Lei Ming, the grandson of Ryan, and the other is Zhang Liang, his own great-great-grandson. The former needs 3 points of royal energy, which means that he is at the same level as Wu Ya, while the latter needs 6 points of royal energy.
"Lei Ming, the grandson of Lei En, is a very steady guy. He is also the most famous general of the Great Zhang Dynasty. He and the monarch Zhang Liang complement each other. The two have known each other since childhood and are of similar age. They are loyal to each other and have been together for 60 years, completely stabilizing the territory of this civilization. Lei Ming stayed outside and conquered those who did not obey him, while Zhang Liang never left the royal city in his entire life. He was extremely cautious."
"It can be said that Lei Ming is not a commander like Wu Ya who is talented and good at using surprise troops, but he is definitely the most versatile commander. Regardless of whether he is attacking, defending, or suppressing, he is very stable in everything he does."
"And Zhang Liang is an expert in internal affairs and conspiracy. He has spent his whole life studying how to control the ministers, the world, and the people. He was able to double the population from 10 million to 20 million in 60 years. This ability is number one. In fact, Duan Jiusi was able to establish the Great Chu Dynasty, at least one of the important reasons was that he benefited from the huge population base of this civilization."
"Then, choose these two."
Zhang Yang made a decision, 9 points of royal energy were consumed, two white lights flashed, and the summoning was successful, but at the same time, a piece of information was suddenly reflected.
"You have consumed too much royal energy to summon historical figures, which is not conducive to your rule. With your status and martial arts, you have reached the safety limit. If you continue to summon the sixth historical figure, please make sure your royal energy is greater than 10. If you summon the seventh historical figure, please make sure your royal energy is greater than 30, and so on."
"So there is such a setting? It turns out that my identity is not omnipotent."
Zhang Yang was quite calm. He then looked at the two people in front of him. Both were around forty years old. As for the one on the left, he didn't know if he looked like Zhang Yang himself, but his eyes were as vast as the sea, as calm as a mountain. He wore a tall hat and a long robe, and was neither humble nor arrogant. It was obvious that he was not going to be easy to deal with.
The one on the right is tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose bridge, a square face, and a righteous look. He is wearing a helmet and armor, and is intimidating without even being angry. It is Lei Ming.
Behind these two people, there are a total of eighteen extraordinary soldiers, including 6 from Lei Ming and 12 from Zhang Liang. He is indeed a good great-grandson.
"Your servant, Zhang Liang."
"Minister Lei Ming."
"Greetings, my lord."
It was the same old conversation, and it was obvious that this was the arrangement of the village construction order. Zhang Yang certainly wouldn't be so embarrassed as to acknowledge a man in his forties as his great-grandson, so he just pretended nothing had happened.
"Please stand up."
Zhang Yang looked very calm. He looked into the eyes of the two men, or rather, into the eyes of Zhang Liang, while also observing the attributes of the two men.
Name: Zhang Liang.
Age: 45.
Strength: B Agility: B Defense: A Soul: A+ Achievements: Once governed the country, allowing the people to recuperate and lay a solid foundation for the continuation of this civilization.
Special troops under his command: None Special occupations under his command: Civil servants, good at managing local internal affairs, can only be obtained after Zhang Liang personally trains them.
Talents: Insight, perseverance, encouragement, strategy, debate, internal affairs, deterrence, wisdom (exclusive to king-level talents).
——

Special Soldier 2: Heavy Armored Swordsman, good at melee attacks and cavalry, Strength A+, Agility A-, Defense A+, Spirit B+. Needs to be trained by Lei Ming himself.
Talents: Tenacity, Iron Wall, Insight, Command, Inspiration, Deterrence (exclusive to King-level talents) ——
“Very good!”
After checking the attributes, Zhang Yang couldn't help but admire in his heart. The combination of Zhang Liang and Lei Ming is obviously stronger than the father-son combination of Wu Lei and Wu Ya. The key is that the two of them are one inside and one outside. They are truly invincible. Once they develop, I'm afraid they will be comparable to Duan Jiusi.
"Thunder."
"I am here."
"Can you train both the Feiyun Archer Guards and the Heavy Armored Sword Masters at the same time?"
"My lord, no, I can only train 500 captain-level archers into 500 Feiyun Archery Guards, or 200 captain-level infantry into 100 heavy armored Modao lieutenants within a one-year training period. During this period, I cannot handle other matters."
Lei Ming said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yang nodded. The former was an archer, necessary for defending the city, and his attributes were considered powerful, but the truly powerful one was the Heavy Armored Sword Lieutenant, with two A+ attributes, one A- attribute, and one B+ attribute, which was even more powerful than Wu Ya's Iron Lion. With the heavy armor and the three-meter-long huge sword, he was like a demon king.
Whether it is a field battle or a city wall defense battle, it is an absolutely lethal weapon, and only 100 of them can be found each year.
However, considering Wu Ya's Iron Lion and Wu Lei's Rock Heavy Infantry, for the sake of coordination between the troops, the best is still the long-range Flying Cloud Arrow Guard.
"Lei Ming, for the next year, you will go and train the Feiyun Archer Guards."
"Yes, I will follow the Lord's orders!"
Lei Ming saluted and strode away. He would select the soldiers and go to the training ground, so Zhang Yang didn't need to worry about various matters during the period.
At this time, only Zhang Liang was left. This guy still didn't move and didn't trigger any side quests. It was very interesting.
Zhang Yang didn't say anything, just waited quietly, but he didn't expect that Zhang Liang was more stable than him.
Zhang Yang had no choice but to speak up. "The royal city is newly built and needs to be rebuilt. The population is the largest. Zhang Liang, do you have any way to recruit refugees for me?"
"My Lord, I think this is inappropriate."
Well, Zhang Liang finally spoke.
"Why?"
"The royal city is too majestic and magnificent, and the refugees are miserable, timid and cowardly. They probably dare not come. Moreover, this is a desolate mountain with no roads. The common people are short-sighted and will think this is a fairyland, or a mirage of a demon country or a ghost place. Therefore, I have three plans: one is to build roads, two is to reclaim land, and three is to build a county town."
"Sometimes, the common people only believe in these three things. Moreover, I think that the royal city should not relocate refugees for the time being. It is better to have nothing than to have too many. We need to wait until the prefectures, states, counties, and towns are integrated, the people have fields, the merchants have roads, the officials have cities, and the soldiers have wars. After the inside and outside are connected, the cycle continues, and the royal city is open to absorb talents. Everything will go smoothly, and the great cause can be accomplished."
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, an information map appeared and the side quest was finally started.
It’s really not easy. This guy is not easy to deal with.
"Your camp has a king-level internal affairs talent joining you. The people's support for you has increased. You have gained the talent for internal affairs. According to the plan, the amount of materials consumed by all engineering construction projects in the dynasty will be reduced by 30%."
"Trigger the branch livelihood and internal affairs task 1. Within three years, build an official road out of the mountain to connect with the old Wei official road (800 miles), build two branch official roads to connect the two county towns (300 miles), and build two pass official roads to connect the two passes (100 miles)."
"Trigger the side mission of Civil Affairs and Internal Affairs 2. Within five years, build a state capital, two county towns, 100 villages, 10 towns, two passes, and attract 50,000 refugees."
"The two side quests will consume one million tons of food, one million energy points, one golden fragment of hope, and require the temporary suspension of the construction of the royal city, as well as the call-up of Zhaozhou and 1,000 senior craftsmen. Do you want to continue?"
"agree!"
Zhang Yang agreed without hesitation. Although it would consume a lot of resources, he didn't care.
As for the subsequent construction of the royal city, there is no rush. Anyway, the specific functions of the royal city are already in place. Now it is the second year after the mission started, and he can't delay it any longer.
