Chapter 209 Status Quo and Imminent Future Investment

When the generals heard the words, their eyes immediately became hot, and they all geared up to advance as soon as possible.

Although Shang Ji did prepare enough weapons and equipment for them to use, how to give them is a lot of knowledge.

Rewarding all at once is the stupidest method, rewarding for no merit is even more harmful to a group than punishing without guilt!

Shang Ji's task for the next period of time is to find various reasons to reward these things, not to make them feel that it is too easy, but also to complete it as soon as possible, so that the martial soul equipment can be used to its value this morning.

"I have gained a lot from the retreat this time, and I have successfully promoted to a first-class general. I wonder how you have completed all the things that I have explained before the retreat?" Shang Ji looked around and asked everyone.

"Report to my lord!" Su Huan stood up, bowed to Shang Ji, and then continued: "We will obey the lord's orders and train our soldiers so hard that we will not slack off. Now we have met the requirements of the lord. Thousands of soldiers, all members advanced to the fourth rank, and a few special arms have as little as 30% and as many as 50% advanced to the fifth rank soldiers!"

"Good! Good job!" Shang Ji praised loudly, and then suddenly changed the subject: "But it's not enough! The war is coming, our army can't be complacent, continue training, the more fifth-level soldiers, the better! We only have The stronger the strength, the more space to display in the next battle!"

After experiencing the battles involving tens of thousands of high-ranking soldiers in the dungeon, Shang Ji's vision became more and more high-minded, and the fourth-rank soldiers who were considered to be all elites before turned out to be somewhat contemptuous. However, Shang Ji also knew that this matter should not be rushed for success, he just told everyone to step up training without making specific requirements.

"Follow the lord's order!" All the generals present immediately got up and said in unison.

"Brother, what's the problem with other things in the Blackwater Fortress?" After learning about the military progress, Shang Ji turned to Deng Yan and asked.

"Brother! Deng Yan stood up and said: "By my brother's order, the barracks, school grounds, and blacksmith workshops in the Blackwater Fortress have all advanced to the intermediate level. At present, my Blackwater Fortress has reached the peak of a small military fortress. If you go further up, unless you are promoted to the fortress level, there is no room for development. Please make a decision on this matter as soon as possible! "

"Brother, I know!" Shang Ji nodded, signaling his understanding.

As the business grows day by day, a black water plug can no longer meet the development needs of the business. In addition, Blackwater Fortress is a military fortress, and its development is too limited. It is suitable as an initial foothold, but it is not a base that can be occupied for a long time. It's time to plan a new base. However, Shang Ji didn't have a clear idea in his mind for the time being through the specific channels.

"In addition, according to my brother's order, our army has already stockpiled 40,000 sets of various special arms equipment, including 3,000 sets of Black Armor Xuanqi suits, 10,000 sets of Heavy Armored Swordsman suits, 7,000 sets of Wolf Cavalry suits, and Northland Strong Crossbow suits. 10,000 suits and 10,000 giant axe suits."

Speaking of this, Deng Yan paused and continued: "But now our army has no more funds, only 300,000 gold left, please make plans early, my lord!"

Whether it is to expand buildings or build equipment, a large amount of funds are needed. After the end of the Xianbei campaign, Shang Ji received 1.9 million gold. After that, he bought food and upgraded buildings to build equipment. The funds were spent like water. , In the blink of an eye, there is only 300,000 gold left!

"Brother Yu knows, I will solve this problem!" Shang Ji waved his hand in a big way, but he was thinking about the four town hearts in the Sumina Ring, and he didn't know if this thing would be sold back. How much money?

"By the way, brother, I have some good news to tell you!" Deng Yan looked up at Shang Ji and said with a smile.

"Brother's reputation is growing day by day. During your retreat period, many heroes have come to join you, and some of them are of good strength. Brother Yu thinks that brother should meet in person!"

"Oh? What kind of hero is worthy of my brother's respect?" Hearing that someone took the initiative to vote, Shang Ji's heart was shocked, and the effect of high reputation finally appeared.

"During the period of my brother's retreat, more than forty senior or third-rate military generals voted one after another.

Brother Yu made the decision without authorization and assigned him to serve under the command of the generals. However, there are three heroes who are very brave. "

Before Shang Ji retreated, there were often aborigines defecting, most of them were mid-level and high-level military generals, and it was not worthy of Shang Ji's personal interview. Usually, Su Huan and the others solved the problem.

After Shang Ji retreated, dozens of aborigines defected, and their grades have improved a lot, including third-rate generals!

Although most of the high-ranking generals in Shang Ji's army are third-rate generals, the status of these third-rate generals who grew up with Shang Ji's bloody battles is obviously not comparable to that of third-rate generals who defected halfway!

Not counting the newly added 3,000 dungeon warriors in the Shangji army, the number of third-rate generals is already over a hundred! Now with the addition of these three thousand dungeons, there are even more third-rate generals!

At present, in the Black Armored Army, third-rate generals defected, and at most one position was assigned to them as a Marquis.

It is no problem for an ordinary third-rate military general to be the Sima of another department commanding tens of thousands of people in the power of ordinary players, but those aborigines would rather come to Shangji to serve as a bad military lord than other players to serve as Sima of the other department!

This is what reputation points do!

Without prestige, even if you are a high-ranking official and rich salary, you will not be willing to come to others. With super high prestige points, people will come to kneel and lick you when you are sitting safely at home.

"Are the three heroes here? To be appreciated by a virtuous brother is definitely not an ordinary person. Brother Yu is also very curious!" Shang Ji smiled and said to Deng Yan.

"The three heroes are waiting for my elder brother to meet you in the side hall!" After saying that, Deng Yan turned around and said loudly: "Come out quickly, Captain Shang wants to see you!"

As soon as Deng Yan finished speaking, three burly men came out from the side hall.

Seeing Shang Ji sitting in the first place, he walked quickly a few steps, knelt down on the ground with a thud, and said in unison: "Caomin Wang Yun (Zhou Yun) (Wu Jing) has seen Captain Shang!"

"Heroes, get up!" Shang Ji got up immediately, helped the three of them up, and said with a pleasant face, "I heard that some heroes are here to serve Shang?"

"Shang Xiaowei is brave and resolute, and Xianbei fears him like a tiger. We have come here to join the school lieutenant, hoping to kill the barbarians together, and please take him in!" Saying this, several people wanted to kneel again.

"Ding, congratulations to player Shang Ji, the second-rate military general Wang Yun, the second-rate general Zhou Yun, and the second-rate general Wu Jing have asked to recognize you as the master. Do you accept it?"

"accept!"

"Ding, congratulations to player Shang Ji, who successfully subdued second-rate generals Wang Yun, second-rate general Zhou Yun, and second-rate general Wu Jing. Please check the specific attributes of the three."

Shang Ji hurriedly helped the three of them up, and said with a smile: "With the help of the three of you, I'm like a tiger with wings added!"
