nForget it!

nA few days ago, he had just thrown Cai Yue’s hundreds of subordinates into the frying pan!

nWho would still dare to provoke him now?

nHe had cleaned up the village.

nLi Yueming checked around and confirmed that there was no problem.

nCoincidentally, the new barracks built by the army had also been completed.

nAt this moment, Li Yueming and his newly established Star Moon Army finally had their own base in this remote and uninhabited land.

nOf course, this was only the beginning.

nAfter the army finished trimming the new barracks, the second thing they did was to widen and extend the streets of North Glacier Town.

nNorthern Ice River Town had a total of over 5,000 households and over 10,000 people.

nIt was neither big nor small.

nCompared to the cities and towns in the Central Plains.

nNorthern Ice River Town was at most a slightly larger village.

nHowever, outside of the snowy mountains that could be in danger at any time, it was already very good for Northern Glacier Town to have such a large population.

nThe reason why Li Yueming wanted to expand the road was to prepare for long-term development in the future.

nAfter all, he had connections in the snowy mountains.

nEven if there was a Beast Tide in the future, he could use the little fox to carry out some reasonable evasion.

nTherefore, if nothing unexpected happened.

nNorthern Ice River Town would become a long-term town in the future. It would no longer be like before, when they heard that a beast tide was coming, they would flee with their families.

nHence…

nThe residents of Northern Glacier Town had witnessed the third unbelievable thing in just a month.

nThey saw that the newly arrived 5,000 soldiers were actually digging stones to pave the way in the middle of winter!!!

nThe five thousand soldiers had widened the muddy path that had not changed for decades in Northern Ice River Town by several meters.

nThe surrounding villagers were also moved away, and the soldiers even built a brand new residential building for them.

nThis discovery stunned countless residents of Northern Glacier Town.

nWhat did they see?

nThe officers and soldiers were actually taking the initiative to help them build roads?

nDid the sun rise from the west or did they sleep too late last night, causing them to hallucinate today?

nBut no matter what they think,

nThe road in Northern Ice River Town was still spreading at an astonishing speed.

nIn just two months, the entire Northern Ice River Town had been renewed under the efforts of Li Yueming and the soldiers.

nIf it weren’t for the fact that those short and shabby houses looked unsightly.

nIt was estimated that the current Northern Glacier Town could compete with the old society.

nWhile doing all of this.

nThe entire Starmoon Troop was undergoing a baptism from the inside out.

nAfter all, in the past, the scouts lived in Zhenbei City.

nAlthough most of them were from poor families, they had never been so close to the people.

nBut now, under the leadership of Li Yueming, they not only built their own military camp, but also paved a stone road for the town.

nThe sense of accomplishment was immediately filled.

nOf course, the reason why they could work so hard was not just because of their trust and admiration for Li Yueming.

nIt was more because they had gained some benefits from following Li Yueming.

nNot only did he double his monthly salary every year.

nLi Yueming had never deducted their rations.

nMoreover, they had been eating and drinking well every day for the past two months.

nWith a full stomach, he was naturally full of energy.

nUnder normal circumstances, it was impossible for the other generals to conjure so much grain out of thin air for the army.

nBut Li Yueming was different!

nAfter the secret letter was sent to the emperor.

nThe emperor was very concerned about this new army that was said to be able to rival the Qin army in the future.

nThe secret letter sent to You Aotian had already emphasized that all of Li Yueming’s requests had to be prioritized.

nLi Yueming was the one who brought out the rations with the secret letter.

nEvery three months, You Aotian would send a supply troop to transport grain and fodder here.

nOf course, it was definitely not enough to just sit and eat.

nThe army had to be able to train in this place, and at the very least, they had to be self-sufficient.

nTherefore, after completing the road reconstruction.

nThe third decree issued by Li Yueming was to reclaim land.

nAlthough the weather in Northern Ice River Town was cold, the land was fertile.

nDuring spring plowing, cold-resistant crops such as wheat and millet could generally mature.

nHowever, farming was not popular here.

nAfter all, as long as the spirit beasts came, the entire town would be severely damaged. The fields that had been painstakingly cultivated for several years would also suffer a major blow.

nOver time, places like Northern Ice River Town were abandoned.

nIt had become an uninhabitable place in everyone’s mind!

nThe population had all moved south to the city.

nNow, Li Yueming was obviously going to do the opposite.

nThe biggest reason why the emperor was able to let the rest of the people stay here and was so magnanimous to let Li Yueming train the new army was because he had made up his mind that Li Yueming would not be able to escape his control in a short period of time.

nAfter all, Northern Ice River Town did not produce any grain, so the army had to rely on the imperial court for food and drink.

nAs long as the emperor wanted to, he could starve the army at any time.

nWithout food, the army naturally couldn’t cause any trouble and could be controlled by the emperor.

nLi Yueming also knew this.

nTherefore, he had already taken the lead in clearing the wasteland before the winter had passed and the snow had completely melted.

nHe led a group of people to reclaim wasteland on the plains downstream of the Northern Ice River.

nThey also sowed food inside.

nHe did not have to worry about not being able to harvest.. After all, there were capable people among the masses!
