The prince is very cruel

Guan Ning dismounted, hugged Hai Mei, and then laughed: "Sorry for the long wait, everyone. Don't worry, it's okay. We'll talk on the boat."

"to make!"

"Get on board first."

After getting on the boat, it slowly sailed along the Sanjiang River into Shu. Along the way, we could see many sentries, both visible and hidden, as well as watchtowers.

In the complex terrain, once there are more outsiders, they will definitely not be able to avoid Bashan's surveillance.

Inside the cabin, hot tea was boiling.

Guan Ning told everything that happened in Qinghe County in detail.

When they heard the number of 80,000 laborers, almost everyone frowned. They obviously felt something was wrong. Why did they have to find laborers from Shu, and they had to be young and middle-aged?

When they heard Guan Ning's agreement, many people could no longer sit still.

Nie Nan stopped him: "My Lord, are you kidding them?"

"Hahaha, the one who knows me best is Brother Nie. Of course I'm kidding them. I want 80,000 men from Shu to die on the front lines. Not to mention 80,000 kilograms of food, even 800,000 kilograms is not enough!"

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Nie Nan nodded. "No wonder the lord came back so easily. It turns out he has stabilized the other party. If you don't agree to this, with the Xiliang people's style of doing things, they will most likely put you under house arrest."

"That's right." Guan Ning's eyes gradually became serious: "The most important thing I'm telling you about this is to tell everyone."

"We don't have much time left, only two months."

"In these two months, we must be prepared to defend Shu."

Hearing this, everyone was in awe.

"My lord, just as you command!"

"Shu is the land passed down from our ancestors, and we will not give up an inch of it!"

"That's right!"

"Outsiders want us to be cannon fodder, but it's not that easy!"

"My lord, since you said so, you must have a plan. Just give us your orders and we will do it." Nie Nan stated.

Guan Ning's expression suddenly changed, becoming sharp and decisive.

"it is good!"

"Please remember this. I will make the following arrangements!"

At this moment, he looked like a military governor commanding a huge army. Everyone, including Nie Nan and Hai Mei, was seeing him like this for the first time and they couldn't help but feel awe.

"Yes!!"

"First, increase the number of militiamen in Shu from 12,000 to 20,000, organized into nine tribes, and all under the unified command of Bashan."

"Second, establish an armory, store up stones and wood, manufacture arrows, and set traps..."

"Third, transfer the refugees and fellow villagers into the heart of Shu to prevent them from being left alone and without protection."

"Fourth, a roster will be adopted. All Shu residents need to register."

"Fifth, when entering a village or town, you need to use specific slogans. Once you find a suspect, suppress them immediately!"

"..."

There were twenty orders in a row, and it took a long time just to talk about them. Each one was clear and transparent, without any ambiguity, and the final preparations were being made.

It was also from this moment that Shu officially had its own unique internal structure, with 20,000 militiamen, 300 people in a patrol team, and seven teams in a battalion.

There are nine camps in total, all of which are from the nine tribes of Bashan, but they mix with each other to avoid ethnic grudges.

Unlike the Dragon Riders, they are more focused on guarding Shu and maintaining daily operations.

As for internal affairs, the Shu Prefecture was also established in Bashan, with Nie Nan as the prefect, which was equivalent to the prime minister in the imperial court, and he was in charge of many and diverse affairs.

In addition, many positions were set up within the Shu government. For example, Roland served as the head of the granary.

Hai Mei served as the head of intelligence.

There were also some capable people in Bashan, each of whom held different positions, such as treasury, roads and bridges, etc., and they were respectively in charge of the imperial cabinet, and together they organized a well-coordinated Shu government to govern Shu.

Although it is far smaller than the imperial court or a giant like the Xiliang Army, it is small but has all the necessary facilities!

Only by pulling together as one can we fully demonstrate our power.

As for a series of preparations such as unifying the roster, setting up secret codes, etc., they are also to deal with possible situations that may arise in the future.

After all, once the enemy invades, the infiltration of spies is inevitable. As a former military king, Guan Ning knows the ins and outs of this too well.
