Chapter Thirty-Three: Heading to the Military Camp

  PS: Collecting and recommending votes, new author and new book, urgently need everyone's support!

  All the way, the good fields and wilds are a piece of fertile land, with roads crisscrossing each other. However, the entire fertile land is divided into blocks at a certain distance, looking very well-planned. The crops in the field are growing extremely well, with thick seedlings swaying back and forth in the wind, giving people a pleasant feeling!

  "This year is certainly going to be a bumper harvest!"

  Zhang Xu was overjoyed, and his momentum swept away. What could Yuan Shao's army do now? Zhang Xu also had the support of more than 60,000 followers in his hands, and he was a figure who shook one side. Moreover, when armies of the same scale fought, his army was even better, so what did Yuan Shao have to be afraid of? As long as he didn't attack with all his might, Zhang Xu had every confidence!

  Although the foundation of Chang County is not yet fully solid, this is an external expansion attack. If anyone dares to invade Chang County, everyone will go all out, with over 10,000 young and strong militiamen, as well as countless sons and daughters of Chang County, being the greatest guarantee!

  "It's all thanks to Master Xian's boundless magical powers that we have this situation now!"

  Wu Zhong said with a serious expression, although he was smiling, his eyes were solemn and vigilant, it was clear that ensuring Zhang Xu's safety was his top priority.

  An honest person won't flatter, but the flattery of an honest person is the most sincere. Zhang Xu also liked it very much when he heard it. After all, Chang County has such a grand occasion, and it's indeed due to his many contributions, and even the power of the immortal!

  Although the agricultural tools have been improved and there are sufficient oxen, without the powerful symbol's continuous support, it would be impossible for the oxen to cultivate 600,000 mu of land in Chang County within a month. This means that one ox would need to cultivate more than three mu of land per day, every day, which is terrifying! It is only with the help of the powerful symbol and the continuous supply of high-quality feed that such a feat can be achieved.

  Six hundred thousand mu of arable land, almost all the plains in Chang County, have been fully developed. This shows how crazy it is. It's precisely because the land has been developed to such an extent that Zhang Xu can reveal his divine signs and make his followers believe in him so firmly. These new followers in Chang County, even most of them, have reached a state of piety!

  Land is the foundation of this era, where people live and work. Whoever can bring land, even if it's only permanent use rights, is a godsend!

  So in everyone's heart, Zhang Xu is the real immortal master who has descended to the world. This is not wrong at all. Wu Zhong is a crazy fanatic. In Wu Zhong's heart, the status of this immortal master Zhang Xu is supreme and unparalleled. Therefore, he likes to stay by Zhang Xu's side more than building merits and achievements, which is more attractive to this general who was cultivated by him!

  "Alright, remember not to disturb the people!"

  All the way, Zhang Xu had already made arrangements. Although a big battle was approaching, at this time, there were still countless people in the fields, taking advantage of the opportunity to manage the farmland. Now it's not the time for plowing and harvesting, even the old and weak can work in the fields, so the young and strong are drawn out. Although there is a slight impact, the impact is not as great as imagined. The work in the fields will not be delayed because of this.

  This is also what Zhang Xu left for each household, leaving enough rations, as long as they do a certain amount of work every day, there will be basic rations distributed. The more they do, the more they get. In this regard, each head of the household plays an active role, after all, the original old believers who served as heads of households were trustworthy and had enough savings beforehand, so they would not embezzle those rations, but rather distribute them fairly and justly.

  Moreover, the head of the village or the village chief above will supervise, and the district chief or the Li Zheng above will further supervise. Above that, there are also various officials or Zhang Xuan's irregular inspections. In addition to this, he himself can also sense some situations from the believers, so from the changes in their faith, some things can be known.

  For corrupt and lawless acts that disregard the interests of others, Zhang Xu's methods were also extremely ruthless, thus solving the problem of corruption from the root cause. As long as it did not harm his Xianghuo faith, Zhang Xu would not interfere too much with the affairs of those below him.

  It is precisely because of this system that as long as everyone works hard, they can eat and drink well, and even the old and weak can do these jobs that don't require too much physical strength.

  "Master Xian, we are still 10 kilometers away from General Guan Hai's camp. Shall we send someone to greet you?"

  At this time, the carriage turned over a small river again, and Wu Zhong came over and said respectfully.

  "It's no use now, both armies are at war. If we came here and didn't know, then it would be a mistake on the part of our master!"

  Zhang Xu waved his hand and said, "Not to mention during the war, even in peacetime, scouts are definitely everywhere near military camps. This is a necessary thing. If Gan Hai and Wu Qing can't even do this, they don't deserve to be trusted by him!"

  As expected, when the convoy approached within five kilometers of the military camp, a cavalry team was seen coming from afar, and they had already dismounted their horses 100 meters away from Zhang Xu.

  "Immortal Master, it seems that Generals Guan Yu and Wu Qing have arrived!"

  Wu Zhong hastily came over to report.

  "Hmm!"

  He nodded slightly and a smile appeared on Zhang Xu's face: "You go and receive them!"

  "Yes!"

  Wu Zhong immediately nodded and left.

  "General Wu Zhong!"

  After these days of training, the faces of Guan Yu and Wu Zong were much more determined. The two generals saw Wu Zong welcoming them and hurriedly clasped their fists in greeting.

  Although Wu Zhong has the lowest ability, he is extremely loyal to Zhang Xu and has been following him for a long time. Although his subordinates are actually only in command of the first battalion, the first battalion is now implicitly the identity of Zhang Xu's personal guard team, so Wu Zhong is also rising with the tide. Even if Guan Hai and Wu Qing repeatedly establish military achievements, they are also implicitly under him.

  "Generals Guan Yu and Wu Qing!"

  Wu Zhong also saluted with his fists.

  "We have come to pay our respects to Master Xian, please inform General!"

  The two of them bowed again.

  "There's no need for formalities, Master Xian has allowed you two to pass, just hand over the war horses to my subordinates!"

  After finishing speaking, Wu Zhong made a gesture of invitation and led the two generals together to pay their respects to Zhang Xu.

  "I will go and pay respects to Master Xianshi!"

  "Finally, Wu Qing pays his respects to Master Xian!"

  The second one kneeled down and said loudly.

  "Alright, let's get up!"

  Zhang Xu got down from the carriage, personally helped the two of them up, and smiled: "Hmmm, I heard that you two generals broke through Yuan Tan's vanguard army. My master is very pleased. Alright, no need to be modest anymore. Let's hurry to the military camp and discuss our strategy against the enemy!"
