When the two left the intelligence department, they heard it very noisy outside, as if a large number of people were passing by, and their steps were very messy. So Qing Cang asked the guards: "What happened outside?"

"Report to the commander, a large number of new recruits entered the city and passed through the main city."

These recruits have not received professional training and are of course less disciplined. He realized that it seems that no recruits have entered the city for a long time.

"A lot of recruits?"

He remembered the fact that the generals had recruited soldiers from other cities before. It can be said that in order to recruit a large number of soldiers, they not only recruited from the cities they occupied, but also spread to nearby counties and districts, with a wide range. It has been a few days since they were all recruited, and these people should have been recruited from there. They are very new to all kinds of things, especially the prosperity of Huaxia City, which made them feel that everything is new, so it is so noisy.

At the same time, a task completion reminder appeared in front of him: the recruitment mission of 200,000 soldiers was completed!

It has been less than three days since the last recruitment of Xu Huang, and now there are another thirty days to register. He quickly clicked and completed it, without any taboos. Guo Jia is right next to him. At the same time, the number in front of him reached 670 days, which has been in the past two years.

If he didn't say it out, no one would believe that Qingcang only had nearly two years to live. The poor were for food and clothing, and the soldiers were for military honors. They were never bothered by life. But he had to complete various tasks for his life, and if he didn't work hard, he would have to die.

After he finished the task, the same task prompt kept appearing, making his eyes blurry, and he immediately took a look.

There are the following tips:

Mission name: Entering the steam era

Mission description: Any city under your name has entered the steam era, the symbol of entering the steam era, and the emergence of the first steam engine.

Quest Level: Hell

Mission reward: 240 days of health.

Tsk, yes, 240 days of health points are the most rewards in history, and it is also the most difficult one at present. At the same time, he thought that this is probably Bai Ye has started to study the steam engine, right? Otherwise, this task would not have jumped out sooner or later, but would have jumped out at this time?

After thinking about it, Wu Chaojing came out of the meeting hall. Obviously, he also heard the noisy sounds outside.

"Commander, you are here! I have a few things to report here."

As soon as he saw Qing Cang, he walked over quickly. It was developing during this period, so there were a lot of daily things. If he hadn't been half of his power, there would have been more. Now he only focuses on important things and main development directions, and basically ignores small things.

Qing Cang signaled him to speak.

Wu Chaojing said: "There are two main things. First, regarding the population problem of Jiuyuan, the reason for Jiuyuan is to relax immigration policies. Because Emperor Ling of Han increased tax collection, some people were overwhelmed, left their hometowns, left their city, and came to Jiuyuan. And as the commander expected, the population increased explosively, all of which were nearby Jiuyuan, including Yanmen and Dai County. Many residents entered the city. Now the population in the city has basically reached 150,000, and within seven days, it will definitely exceed 200,000."

Qing Cang thought to himself, "If this happens, I wonder if I will give me a reward of 200,000 yuan. I will find out in seven days."

He occupied a Jiuyuan City, but the population of this city did not reach 200,000, so this task was always hanging without any movement.

Guo Jia asked: "Minister Wu, why don't he just come to report this?"

"Yes, Staff Guo is right, and the next priority is the most important thing."

"Speaking."

Qing Cang also listened attentively.

"There are still a large number of Han troops in the two major cities of Yanmen and Dai County. Seeing that I, Jiuyuan, absorbed their people in this way, sent a large number of troops to prevent these people from settled in Jiuyuan. But I dared not confront us head-on."

As soon as these words were said, Qing Cang was unhappy. Isn’t this the source of his life cut off? Although I don’t know if it is useful, or it is said that it cuts off his economic development and population resources. The population will solve the future direction and the degree of economic development. There is no population, and everything is empty talk.

He wanted to return, but he said, "This is the general trend. The Han army has no right to prevent these refugees from moving to our Jiuyuan City, write a letter to them, warning them that if they dare to stop the refugees from moving to Jiuyuan, wait for the city to be taken over! And let Zou Wei, Twelve, Lejin, Yunzhongfeng come over."

Then immediately a guard went to call four people over. The four people quickly received the order and trotted all the way and said, "Commander!"

"You four each brought 5,000 cavalry to escort the refugees who were about to enter Jiuyuan. Once you encounter a large army, you should not take it with them and return directly."

Now he has no energy to send a large army to occupy the above two places, so he has to send four people to escort the refugees into Jiuyuan. These four people are all deputy division commanders and have the same position. At the same time, when they return, they can also give them military merits. When the military merits accumulate to a certain level, they can give them the official position legitimately. As for Xu Huang, he is with him, and there are opportunities to make him achieve success.

When Zou Wei, Twelve, Le Jin, and Yun Zhongfeng heard this, they immediately responded and counted 5,000 soldiers and horses to Jiuyuan. At the same time, Guo Jia also wrote a letter, warning nearby cities not to play with fire.

Qing Cangfeng issued an order, but he actually forgot that there was another thing in Wu Chaojing. So he asked: "By the way, Minister Wu said, what is the second thing?"

"When I return to the commander, the second thing is that the building of the Science and Technology Research Center has been put into use. Minister Yang asked me to report because he had no time to go out."

That means Bai Ye has already started to study steaming cars. No wonder he has been asking for a task prompt just now.

"Okay! Everything is as normal!"

"By the way, there is another thing, that is, 30,000 new recruits have been recruited recently and they have all entered the city today."

"Okay, I understand. By the way, is there any news in Xiaquyang?"

Wu Chaojing said: "Except for Zhang Bao asking for help again some time ago, he didn't seem to hear any news. Perhaps it was because the two sides were fighting fiercely at this time."

Some time ago, Zhang Bao sent Zhao Shun to trade weapons, but this time Qing Cang refused directly. This selfish and fearless person is enough to help him once. Everything comes from Zhao Shun leading his troops to evacuate. If they help resist for a while, maybe he would consider helping him again. Now, they are simply dreaming, and it is impossible for them to pay the big price.

"Notify the spy and pay close attention to the situation of Qu Yang. If there is any change, report it immediately."

Since the first-hand news of the spy's return must be to the internal affairs department, Wu Chaojing, as the minister, naturally got the news first, unless it was a spy from the Flying Dragon Army or the Tiger Army, it would not be subject to this restriction.

"yes!"
