In Donglai County of the Jiaodong Peninsula, a group of special talents, miners, and strangers who have mastered exploration skills came here to explore for gold mines under the orders of Xuzhou Mu.

Donglai County is located on the coast of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. It was not well-known in the Eastern Han Dynasty. All players know is Donglai Taishici. But since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the gold mines in Donglai County have occupied a pivotal position.

The local talents of the Eastern Han Dynasty did not know the location of the gold mines in Donglai County, so Chutian arranged for people who were familiar with geology and minerals to help the miners search for the Jiaodong gold mines.

"Lord" is not necessarily the same as the real world, and Chutian is not sure that he can find the Jiaodong gold mine in Donglai County by sending an exploration team.

The exploration team explored Donglai County for several months, exploring according to the location in the alien's impression.

The Fubo Army, under the command of Zheng Zhilong, completely pacified Donglai County.

He stationed in Huang County, the seat of Donglai County, to suppress possible rebellions and to eliminate mountain bandits and water bandits in Donglai County.

"General, the exploration team discovered gold mines in Qucheng County. This is a secret message from the exploration team. Please forward it to the Lord's Mansion in Xiacheng!"

"The exploration team has finally gained something. I hope they won't disappoint the Lord's Mansion."

Zheng Zhilong immediately asked someone to tell the Lord's Mansion.

There is more than one gold mine in Jiaodong. For the Chutian forces, although the Jiaodong gold mine is not the most important financial source, if the gold mine can be mined on a large scale, Chutian can raise tens of thousands more soldiers and horses.

The current Langya Prime Minister is Zhang Hong. He received a report from Jiaodong and sent it to Xia Liang for a decision. From the beginning, Chu Tian asked Xia Liang to supervise the development of the Jiaodong gold mine.

The gold resources discovered this time are extraordinary.

"Linglong Gold Mine, Level 8 Gold Mine Resources?!"

Even Xia Liang, who has a higher vision, was shocked when he learned that Jiaodong has eight-level gold mine resources! Gold and silver mine resources, up to ten levels, and eight-level gold mine resources are enough to be exploited for a long time!

"Immediately recruit two thousand refugees and five hundred miners from Donglai County to mine the Linglong Gold Mine. If the production in the first year is sufficient, more labor will be sent later."

Xia Liang knew that it was not better to send more miners. Mining gold mines had marginal benefits. The more miners there were, the lower the unit output might be. At the same time, a group of miners should be sent to trial mining first, and then the number of miners could be increased as appropriate.

The first gold mine was discovered in Donglai County, and the exploration team soon began to search for the second gold mine. The Jiaodong Peninsula became the treasury of Chutian's forces. After the Jiaodong gold mine was mined, Chutian would have gold to buy high-level cavalry.

Excellent war horses used.

In Guoju County, Beihai, the general Zhou Yafu was besieged by Xue Wanche and Dorgon, the generals of Zhao Gongzi, but he didn't pay much attention. He defended the city, sent a cavalry to invade Zhao Gongzi's grain road, and recruited the troops currently stationed in Donglai County.

Zheng Zhilong led the Fubo Army to come to support.

The entire population of the villages and towns near Ju County was moved to Ju County in advance by Zhou Yafu. The population of Ju County increased to one million, and the fields were clear and the walls were solid and impregnable.

Prince Zhao's army was unable to collect grain and grass from the Juxian area and could only transport grain from Linzi, Qi State. During the transportation of grain, they were harassed by the cavalry sent by Zhou Yafu from time to time, which made them quite embarrassed.

"Tian Dan, Tian Ji attacks Taishan County. You go back and defend Taishan. I can put pressure on Dongjun by myself."

Along with Le Yi, he sent Li Guang, Du Ruhui, and Li Xiuning to rescue Taishan, and only used himself and his guard Zhou Cang to attack Dongjun.

For a commander at Leyi level, he can advance and retreat calmly even if there are no friendly troops.

Li Guang and Du Ruhui's Taishan Army, Li Xiuning's Women's Army and the Invincible Army quickly returned to Mount Tai to resist the offensive from Qingzhou Governor Tian Qi. Because the Invincible Army was temporarily in the hands of Li Xiuning, Chutian sent Yang Ye to Mount Tai.

Cao Cao's plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao was more or less effective. Zhou Yafu and Zheng Zhilong were dragged to Beihai Kingdom, and Li Guang, Du Ruhui, Li Xiuning, and Yang Ye were forced to return to Taishan. The pressure on Dongjun was greatly reduced.

Xiaopei, Wu Anguo, Mi Fang and other third-rate military generals were stationed here when Chutian went to Mobei for the battle, and were required to secure the city to protect themselves and not go out to fight.

The fifth school of the Northern Army, the White Robe Legion, and the Servant Legion were sent by Xia Liang in advance to garrison Xiaopei. With the abilities of Wu Anguo, Mi Fang and others, commanding a group of high-level troops was a waste of resources, so they were ordered to defend rather than attack.

Mi Fang complained quite a bit about this, thinking that her talents had not been fully utilized. However, Xia Liang had a higher official position than him and was the most trusted person by Chu Tian, ​​so Mi Fang did not dare to protest.

He and Wu Anguo were sitting on the wall of Xiaopei, drinking wine, and scolded Fang Qiu: "Xiaopei has at least 40,000 elite troops. If you let me command this army to attack westward, Yuzhou will be easily accessible, and the lord can be king. Why?"

Still on the defensive?"

Wu Anguo clinked glasses with Mi Fang: "Brother is right. I heard that Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin are the most powerful generals in the world, but with eldest brother's force, one person can capture two of them alive. If they dare to come to Xiaopei City to call for battle, how can they still be killed?"

Please show off your force and capture a fierce general alive, so that the world will know that your brother is still above Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin!"

Mi Fang took advantage of the situation and said: "If they dare to come, I will teach them that they will never come back!"

"Two generals, enemy troops have appeared outside the city! Please speak to the people of the Tang Dynasty for the governor of Runan!"

When Mi Fang and Wu Anguo were bragging, the city wall defenders came to report in a hurry.

The vanguard army of the Runan Prefect has arrived!

Mi Fang was frightened, and the wine bottle in his hand clattered to the ground, and the wine splashed all over the floor. He was just bragging to his younger brother Wu Anguo, but he didn't expect that the enemy troops would come at any time.

Wu Anguo asked Mi Fang in confusion: "Brother, what's going on? Could it be..."

"The enemy generals are eager to come and die, which is really beyond my expectation. I think they will definitely lose their troops this time!"

Mi Fang could not show weakness in front of Wu Anguo, so she raised her head high and went to the city wall with Wu Anguo to observe the army from Yuzhou.

Fifty thousand vanguard troops from Yuzhou came to the city to show off their power. Twenty thousand of them were elite soldiers, including elite cavalry, as well as a large number of infantry and crossbowmen. They were well-equipped and shocking.

Mi Fang has seen countless high-level soldiers since she followed Chu Tian. The 20,000 elite soldiers in front of her were obviously not ordinary legions.

Although this legion was inferior to the elite troops such as the Five Schools of the Northern Army and the White Horse Yi Cong, its victory was due to its large number. It is said that Tang used 20,000 elite troops at one time.

Mi Fang had under his command the infantry battalion, shooting battalion, and cavalry battalion from the five schools of the Northern Army, as well as the White Robe Corps, the Servant Corps, the Donghai Defense Corps, and the Xiaopei City Defense Force, but he felt timid.

These elite regiments in Mi Fang's hands may not necessarily be a match for the Yuzhou army under the city.

"The enemy general has called for formation!"

The defenders of Xiaopei shouted.

Mi Fang and Wu Anguo both looked at the Yuzhou general calling for battle below the city. This man looked rough and was dragging a Xuanhua ax. He wanted to challenge the general to a fight to the death.

Yuzhou's 50,000 vanguard army camped calmly under the city. It was obvious that the commander of the other side was someone else. The person who came out to call for formation was just a general, not a commander.

"Brother, this person seems to have some strength. Let me, Beihai Iron Hammer Wu Anguo, go down and kill him with one hammer."

When Wu Anguo saw that the opponent's generals were coming to provoke him, he couldn't hold himself back, so he wanted to go out of the city to challenge. One-on-one battles between military generals were not common, but it was not uncommon. If he could kill the general on the battlefield, the enemy's morale would be greatly reduced.

Mi Fang always had a bad feeling when she saw the generals using big axes as weapons in the city.

He had a good relationship with Wu Anguo and was unwilling to let Wu Anguo take risks, so he sent a deputy general to fight.

The city gate opened, and a general armed with a red tassel gun galloped out to meet the general with an axe.

This is a military commander selected from the martial arts examination. His martial strength is 73, but his commanding ability is only 47, so he is assigned to Mi Fang as a guard.

Mi Fang's ability is mediocre, but her power status in Chutian is not low, because the Mi family provided huge help to Chutian's early development and his entry into Xuzhou. Therefore, sometimes Chutian will give preferential treatment to Mi Zhu and Mi Fang brothers.

Mi Fang's bodyguard came out of the city to confront the general with an axe, asking: "Who are you? Don't you know that Xiaopei is defended by General Mi Fangmi, the unparalleled general of Xuzhou, and you dare to come and die? I can kill you without our general taking action."

!”

"Xuzhou Wushuang General..."

Cheng Yaojin dragged the Xuanhua ax and couldn't help but be on guard secretly. The opponent's backing was so powerful, General Mi must be brave enough. In this battle, you need to be careful, otherwise you may be killed by the opponent in one round.

Down.

His master said that Tang and Qin Qiong went to Qiao County in Yuzhou, and there was someone else commanding the 50,000 Yuzhou vanguard army.

It is said that Tang knew what level Mi Fang was and did not care about Mi Fang's martial arts, so he did not mention Mi Fang to Cheng Yaojin.

As a result, Cheng Yaojin felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.

If Mi Fang is Xuzhou's unparalleled general, then the military commander who can serve as Mi Fang's guard may have even higher strength.

Cheng Yaojin held the Bagua Xuanhua ax in his hand, rode a war horse, and cautiously dealt with Mi Fang's guards. For a moment, he didn't even dare to make a move.

Seeing that Cheng Yaojin was timid, Mi Fang's guards thought that Cheng Yaojin was not good enough, so they were overjoyed and took the initiative to attack Cheng Yaojin with their red tassel spears!

"This time, my life is in danger!"

Cheng Yaojin bravely stepped forward to fight Mi Fang's guards.

In Cheng Yaojin's opinion, Mi Fang's security force was at least 97 or 98.

When the two of them fought, Mi Fang's guard gun flew like a dragon, flying sand and rocks!

With a clang, the spear was blown away by the giant axe, and Cheng Yaojin took advantage of the situation and killed Mi Fang's guard off his horse!

The Yuzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army were silent.

Even Cheng Yaojin was stunned, and the guards of General Xuzhou Wushuang could not hold out for even one round...

"Brother, the enemy general seems to be very powerful. I am no match for him. Maybe only eldest brother can capture him."

When Wu Anguo saw that Cheng Yaojin easily beheaded an enemy, he suddenly realized that he was no match for Cheng Yaojin.

Mi Fang's face was uglier than crying at this time. He kicked an iron plate this time. Mi Fang privately competed with the guard, but most likely he couldn't beat the guard. Even the guard with 73 force was killed by Cheng Yaojin. He didn't have any force.

How can a 70-year-old general fight against Cheng Yaojin?

In order to maintain a tall image in front of her younger brother, Mi Fang coughed twice: "Wu Anguo, my lord often told me that a good general should attack a city with a hundred thousand troops and not show off the courage of a single man. This is

My lord is testing me. So what if the general under the city can kill a hundred people? Can he capture the Xiaopei I'm defending?"

After Wu Anguo listened to Mi Fang's explanation, it seemed that this was indeed the case. This was probably the reason why Mi Fang could become a lieutenant general, while Wu Anguo was only a captain.

Cheng Yaojin killed a Xuzhou general and found that the so-called Xuzhou Unparalleled General was just an empty show, so his confidence increased and he called out to the Xiaopei garrison: "Unparalleled General in the city, if you have the ability, come down and make gestures!"

"Come up if you can!"

"Come down if you can!"

"you come up!"
