Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

After figuring this out, the two of them took You Xian to Zhoucheng to spend a day with An Liu and the others.

After telling them to live a stable life and recruit talents, he went to Liancheng again, told Anqi and others what he had said to Anliu and others, and then returned to the north.

After returning to the Northland, Leng Youran's focus shifted to building the Northland.

A lot of clay had been found these days, enough for them to use. She didn't have to worry about construction issues, so she began to outline the new map of the north.

"Ran'er, you mean we should continue building houses and connect the Northland with other towns? Are you sure you need so many houses?"

After seeing the map his daughter took out, Leng Chengye was so shocked that he closed his mouth for a long time!

The people in the north had already been settled in, and there was a place for them to live even if they came again. Now his daughter not only did not stop but also wanted to continue expanding, which really shocked him.

"Dad, yes, it's absolutely necessary. Not only that, our city wall must also encircle the entire northern region. For the next period of time, I'll trouble you and Second Uncle to take the people out. As for the factory, I'm here. Just remember to build a factory every ten miles. That way, we don't have to choose another location in the future. The only difference is that all the factories will be built near the center. As for those near the city wall, leave them alone."

She would be useful there. No matter who wants to sneak into the North to cause trouble in the future, that is the place where they will never return.

Since she is ready to occupy the land and become the king, she will make it bigger and stronger. No matter what Qin Zhaohai wants to do, she will not let him set his sights on the north.

Old Master Leng and You Xian sat at the top of the table and chose to remain silent about the conversations of the younger generations below.

They already knew what Ran'er was thinking, so they naturally agreed.

Five years later

Leng Youran and Li Tianze were standing on the raised city wall at this time.

Beneath the city wall stood rows of huge crowds of people.

Don't get me wrong, it's not the common people who come to seek refuge, but the North is surrounded by the army again.

"You little brats on the city wall, why don't you just roll down the wall and die?"

Leng Youran and Li Tianze smiled at each other, "Are you going this time or am I going?" Leng Youran glanced at the big man who was shouting below with contempt.

The man had two meteor hammers in his hands. Because it was summer, his clothes were too small or for some other reason, so a part of his snow-white belly was exposed.

"Let me do it. You don't need to take action against these people." After saying that, Li Tianze waved his hand behind him, and tens of thousands of soldiers wearing the unique silver armor of the northern soldiers jumped down from the city wall.

Leng Youran sat leisurely on the edge of the city wall, with his knees bent, and a flute appeared in his hand.

As the flute sounded, the sound of fighting below gradually came.

"kill...."

“Kill…”

The two sides were obviously unequal in strength, but the soldiers wearing the armor of the northern soldiers quickly cleared a bloody path.

Li Tianze did not ride a horse to fight, but his figure kept shuttling among the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

All the soldiers, as agreed, held their scimitars and chopped at the horses' hooves.

Leng Youran kept changing the sound of the flute, and the soldiers below were affected by the speed of her flute.

At this time, Li Tianze also raised his sword and greeted the general who had just been shouting.

The man swung his meteor hammer so hard that no trace could be seen, but he couldn't hurt Li Tianze at all.

Seeing him waving the meteor hammer like a madman, Li Tianze couldn't help but take a step back, crossing his arms across his chest and looking at his funny appearance.

The man with the exposed belly didn't know how long he had been waving. He only felt sore in his arms. The horse under his butt, perhaps because it was bearing a weight that it couldn't bear, let out a long "neigh...", raised its front hooves and threw the man with the exposed belly to the ground. Then, as if sensing danger, it walked away from the battlefield with a brisk pace.

"Damn it..." The man with the exposed belly cursed inwardly, not caring about the dust on his body, and rushed towards Li Tianze with the meteor hammer in his hand.

Li Tianze kept his arms around his chest and even took the time to turn around and exchange a glance with Leng Youran.

When the man's meteor hammer was about to hit him in the face, Li Tianze suddenly turned his head. The warmth he showed when facing Leng Youran was no longer on his face, and his black eyes were full of murderous intent.

He dodged the meteor hammer swung by the man by slightly tilting his head, jumped up, raised his feet together, and kicked the big-bellied man hard.

"what...."

The big-bellied man was kicked far away by him. From a distance, when he fell to the ground, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

"General..."

"General..."

As soon as the man was at a disadvantage, the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty shouted in panic.

The truth is that the enemy they faced this time was too fierce. They had as many as 100,000 people, but under the sweep of these 10,000 people, they had lost nearly 20,000 people, and they had no power to fight back.

The deputy general saw that something was wrong and quickly moved to the side of the big-bellied man. He dragged the injured big-bellied man and retreated while shouting, "Retreat, retreat quickly..."

The horn of retreat sounded, and an overwhelming defeat was inevitable.

Leng Youran also put away the flute in his hand at this time, climbed up the edge of the city wall, and shouted to the soldiers who had just fought hard below: "Soldiers, thank you for your hard work."

"Serving the city lord is not hard..."

"It's not hard for the city lord..."

"Serving the City Lord is not hard..."

The morale outside the city gate was high, and the people inside the city were sitting in the teahouse and shaking their heads.

"Well, I thought we could hold out for an hour this time, but I didn't expect the enemy to be repelled in just half an hour."

"Who says it isn't true? If I hadn't come to the North, I would never have known that there are battles in the world that move so fast."

"This is all thanks to our city lord's prowess. Look at how many battles we've fought in the past few years. Those soldiers from the Eastern Jin Dynasty couldn't even climb the city walls, let alone enter."

"Hahahaha, the best thing I've done in my life is moving my family to the North."

"So are we!"

“Hahahahaha….hahahaha…”

The laughter in the teahouse infected everyone strolling in the market.

Today they no longer fear war.

They couldn't remember how many times soldiers were fighting outside the city while the city was peaceful.

Now they have long been accustomed to the occasional shouting outside the city.

Sometimes when they had free time they would climb up the city wall to watch the battle, but they got tired of it after doing it so many times.

It’s not that they are tired of watching the northern soldiers’ unstoppable momentum, but because their opponents are too cheap, so they don’t have the heart to watch them being abused.
