"oh!"
After hearing this, Lu Yi suddenly realized.
"Okay, stop being suspicious. We won't be going back to the battlefield of various nations today."
"Wherever you want to go, just let Xia Mo go with you."
Lu Ping also quickly changed the subject.
"Okay~ Then please, Sister Xia Mo, accompany me shopping."
Lu Yi smiled and pulled Xia Mo's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Okay, stop acting like a spoiled brat and let's go. I'll treat you to a nice meal."
After saying that, Xia Mo took Lu Yi's hand and walked towards the stairs.
........
After the two left, Lu Ping sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought.
Lu Ping never expected that the changes on the third floor would be so huge. It was completely beyond his expectations.
If he is not careful, his life may be in danger.
It is conceivable that how could five thousand soldiers be used?
Those veteran leaders have tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers. How can Lu Ping resist them?
After careful consideration, Lu Ping realized that if he wanted to save his life, the key was the soldiers.
If Lu Ping wants more soldiers, he must have sufficient population.
According to the three-tier conscription rules, the ratio of population to soldiers cannot exceed ten to one.
The county seat of Luping started with a population of 30,000, and the 15 villages had a total population of 15,000.
A population of 45,000 means that Lu Ping can only recruit 4,500 soldiers, and this is assuming there is sufficient food supply.
Even if Lu Ping still had twenty-one soldier recruitment cards in his hand, if he used them all, he would only have 2,100 soldiers.
Taking all of them into account, Lu Ping's starting military strength is at most 11,000.
And this number is definitely not enough.
Because Lu Ping also had to send troops to garrison in various villages to guard against sneak attacks by bandits at all times.
The only way to solve this problem is to increase the population of the territory as quickly as possible.
But this involves the issue of territory construction and development.
If the territory is not well governed, the people's hearts will not rise, the population will not grow, and it will not attract refugees.
If the population does not increase, Lu Ping will not be able to recruit more soldiers.
For Lu Ping, it is even a problem whether he can defend his territory, let alone expand it.
Ultimately, population is the essence.
Without enough population, everything is bullshit.
But how easy is it to build a territory?
Lu Ping is good at leading troops in battle, but he is really a layman when it comes to governing a territory.
How could Lu Ping know anything about agriculture, water conservancy, taxes, laws, and business?
If Lu Ping wants to develop his territory well, he must have civil officials.
But now, Lu Ping only has Li Si as a civil official.
How could a Li Si be useful?
Fortunately, the textbook mentioned that when the lord reaches level ten, he will receive a civil official gift pack, and after entering the third level, he will receive another civil official gift pack.
These two gift packs may be the key to solving the problem.
After all, Lu Ping has always had good luck and has the doubling skill.
After figuring this out, Lu Ping felt a little relieved.
......
The next morning, Lu Ping got up early, explained some things to Lu Yi, and returned to the battlefield of Wanguo.
After returning, everything was normal in the territory. Bai Qi and Yue Fei also reported back victory news. They had successively captured the cities of two lords and were currently attacking the next target.
Lu Ping checked the national war points. The points had reached 22,000. With this score, Lu Ping would most likely get first place.
I just don’t know what reward the first place will get. It would be best if it is a soldier recruitment card. Lu Ping is in urgent need of soldiers now.
After shutting down the system, Lu Ping sent messages to Zhao Qianli and Song Haoran, asking them if they needed military generals.
After all, the two of them are under his protection, so if they need it, the general can sell it to them first.
As for Tang Fang, she definitely doesn't need him. Tang Qing has just as many generals as Lu Ping.
Zhao Qianli and Song Haoran quickly replied, saying that they both needed military generals.
Finally, after some bargaining, Lu Ping sold five generals to them at a price of 10 million each.
Done, Lu Ping sent another message to Xia Mo, asking her how many national war points she had earned.
Soon, Xia Mo sent a message.
During these two days, Lu Bu also captured a city and obtained 1,000 national war points. His current points have reached 10,000.
Judging from previous national wars, even if this score cannot make it into the top ten, it can still be ranked within the top fifteen.
To be honest, Lu Ping was not very satisfied with this result.
Xia Mo's strength is not bad, not only not bad but also very strong.
If Lu Ping is invincible on the second floor, then Xia Mo's strength can at least be ranked in the top three.
Unfortunately, Xia Mo had wasted too much time before, and by the time Lu Ping remembered to urge her, it was too late.
Right now, there is still more than half a month before the end of the national war. Even if we hurry up, there is probably no hope of making it into the top ten.
Of course, this cannot be blamed on Xia Mo, mainly because she is only level eight and her military strength is far from enough, unlike Lu Ping who has the doubling skill.
After figuring this out, Lu Ping felt relieved. He had tried his best anyway. If Xia Mo could make it into the top ten, it would be a gain. If not, it didn't matter.
If you have that time, you might as well think about your own things.
After the national war ends, when the army returns, Lu Ping will immediately start the ninth level challenge mission.
As usual, you still have to get first place in the level nine challenge mission, not for anything else, just to get more resource packs and soldier recruitment cards.
After completing the ninth-level challenge mission and receiving the national war rewards, Lu Ping is not far from reaching the tenth level.
But now is different from before. Lu Ping is no longer so eager to upgrade, and everything will proceed step by step.
After all, Lu Ping had no confidence in entering the third floor.
Unless Lu Ping gets more soldier recruitment cards and resource packs.
"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."
With a sigh, Lu Ping shook his head.
Time flies, and more than half a month has passed since the transfer.
In half a month, Yue Fei and Bai Qi continued their efforts and captured two more cities for Lu Ping.
During this period, Lu Yi also completed the task assigned to her by Lu Ping and sold all the asylum quotas and generals, earning a total of 4.7 billion yuan.
Lu Yi said that she would invest all the money on the island.
Lu Ping naturally would not stop her, because this was what Lu Ping had ordered her to do.
The appearance of the devil's cave made Lu Ping realize that he must have a place to settle down, and the island on the sea might be a good choice.
Early that morning, Lu Ping got up early and waited for the system notification.
Today is the day when the national war ends. At 12 noon, the results of the national war will be announced.
Staring at the time, Lu Ping felt nervous but also a little excited. After all, this was his first time participating in a national war.
Finally, twelve o'clock struck on time, and the system prompt sounded at the same time.
Hearing the prompt tone, Lu Ping quickly opened the system email.
"Ding! Congratulations to the player for winning first place in the National War! Rewards: 3 million reputation, 3 million experience, 70 million resources each, and 1,000 resource packs."
