With nothing to do,
he made another dozen cooling charms of varying quality, from mundane lower grade to mundane supreme grade.
Among them, the higher the quality of the talisman,
the larger the maximum range it could cover,
the greater the total amount of temperature it could absorb and store,
and the longer the duration it could maintain.
As for those so-called heating charms,
Luo Changfeng spent about half an hour researching and managed to produce three.
However, since the weather was already hot enough as it was,
Luo Changfeng did not attempt to activate the three heating charms.
He simply stored the three heating charms in his waist pouch.
…
In the blink of an eye,
several days had passed by.
During these few days, quite a few upheavals took place within Huai Shui County.
Having conquered a county and two towns, the forces of the King of Huai Shui
amassed an elite army of about three hundred thousand and launched a mad offensive against the territory belonging to the Tang Family.
The Tang Family, on their part, were doing their best to defend.
After all, having already suffered a loss once,
the Tang Family couldn’t possibly take on another loss, could they?
As for the so-called three hundred thousand elite troops?
That was just a claim for the public; in reality, the number of truly armored elites mobilized by the forces of the King of Huai Shui
was around a hundred thousand.
The remaining more than two hundred thousand were all farmers enlisted to support the combat operations of the hundred thousand elite troops.
…
Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided,
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, sat quietly in the main seat,
silently listening to Luo Chuan, who was in front of him.
“So you’re saying, the war between the Tang Family and the King of Huai Shui has already entered an intense phase?”
Luo Ping suddenly spoke.
“Father, I think we might be able to use this opportunity to swallow up the few towns near Qingshi Town,”
Luo Chuan said calmly.
“Swallow up the nearby towns?” Luo Ping’s eyes narrowed slightly at these words, “How do you plan to solve the grain supply problem?
“It’s easy to conquer the nearby towns that do not belong to the King of Huai Shui, the Chen Family, or the Tang Family,
“but continuing governance afterward is not simple.”
“The issue of grain alone is enough to keep our Luo Family struggling to catch our breath…”
Luo Chuan nodded silently and after pondering for a moment, he spoke softly, “Regarding the grain problem, I have thought about it before; trying to buy grain from within Huai Shui County has almost become impossible, so if we want to solve this grain shortage, we must purchase it from outside at a higher price.”
“About half a month ago, I established contact with the Luo Family in Jiangnan Prefecture, outside Luo Mountain Prefecture.”
“They said they could exchange grain for the abundant Qing stone veins produced near Qingshi Town.”
“Jiangnan Prefecture?” Luo Ping’s eyes briefly gleamed upon hearing these words, “The land of Jiangnan Prefecture is a place of abundant grain production within the Da Feng Dynasty, far surpassing our Huai Shui County’s yield,
“And the Luo Family there is one of the four major families in Jiangnan Prefecture, with control over countless farmers and fields.”
“If our Luo Family could establish contact with that Luo Family, even building a friendship between the two families…
“then this issue of insufficient grain could indeed be temporarily resolved.”
In the room, Luo Chuan quickly said, “So, Father means to agree to Uncle’s deployment of troops to seize the towns near Qingshi Town?”
Luo Ping spoke tranquilly, “This is based on the premise that the transaction you just mentioned, with the Luo Family, is true…”
…
As time went by,
with the Luo Family’s convoy bearing vast amounts of grain gradually entering the Luo Family’s territory in Qingshi Town,
the thirty thousand armored elites personally trained by Luo Yong stationed outside Qingshi Town,
finally began to mobilize.
Slowly approaching those towns near Qingshi town that did not belong to the influence of Luo Family, Chen Family, Tang Family, or the King of Huai Shui,
Of course, besides these thirty thousand elite troops,
the Luo Family also dispatched about fifty thousand farmers.
They were tasked with assisting the march of the thirty thousand armored elites and transporting their provisions.
…
Within Huai Shui County, there were eighteen counties and thirty-six towns.
Almost all of the county cities were in the hands of the Tang Family, Chen Family, and the King of Huai Shui.
Though the majority of the thirty-six towns also lay within the control of these three powers,
there remained a small part of the towns
yet to be incorporated under the banner of these three forces.
Conveniently, there were about five ownerless small towns near Qingshi Town,
each standing in different locations.
…
Huai Shui County, East Earth Town.
At the Ding Family Manor, the strongest family in East Earth Town and the most reputable among the nearby five ownerless small towns,
there was a flurry of family representatives
rushing towards a heavily guarded council hall.
“Family Head Ding, how do you think we should resolve this?”
“Previously, we lived in peace, but that was okay.
“Now, the Luo Family outside East Earth Town has already mobilized nearly a hundred thousand elite troops and is steadily closing in on the direction of East Earth Town and the other four towns.”
“If we still don’t make some preparations in advance…”
“How will we deal with the fierce Luo Family from Qingshi Town?
“How do we face the hundred thousand armored elites under the command of the Luo Family?”
