Even with secretaries helping him share the workload, he was still busy to the point of being overwhelmed.

By the time he regained his senses, time had quietly slipped into the end of the month, putting down the report in his hand.

Lu G slumped in his chair and let out a long sigh.

During this short period, the new population had been relatively stable and had not caused any incidents, especially in Mingjing City.

When he was inspecting the situation in the city, he casually checked the attribute panels of a few newcomers.

Perhaps because Ming Jing city was close to natural wonders and had a high livability, the loyalty of this batch of new populations had risen quite rapidly.

Luo Gi hadn't even noticed, and their loyalty had generally reached above 75 points.

Now that it was the end of the month, it was time to adjust the military deployments of each branch city.

While Luo Gi was contemplating whether to summon the brothers Guia and Gujan back to Mingjing City, a fragrant aroma of tea wafted into his nose, slightly refreshing him.

Looking up, he saw Lu Yi carefully walking over with his small teapot.

The tea leaves were a gift from Yiqing Shen some time ago.

She had said she found some tea trees in the mountains and told him that drinking more tea could help refresh his mind and was good for his health.

So, he started drinking it.

For this reason, he even had someone make a small teapot for him, making it look quite like the real thing.

After sipping some tea and catching his breath, he suddenly remembered that there had been too many random matters before, and he had completely forgotten about that golden treasure chest and Wong Luchong's relics.

Remembering this, Lu G quickly opened his backpack.

As for that relic package, LuG basically had no expectations because valuable rare items were mostly stored in the warehouse, which is a common knowledge among players.

Upon opening it, sure enough, there were no good items.

And while receiving civilization points, he casually tossed aside a large pile of not so valuable black, iron, and bronze level items, planning to deal with them slowly when he had time later.

Then all my attention was focused on that golden treasure chest.

It's really a long lost golden treasure chest, huh? I can't help but feel a bit excited thinking about it.

Chapter 239.

Unit conflict.

First, splash some cold water on my face, then rub my hands together like a fly.

Damn, it's been too long since I opened a golden treasure chest and I'm all excited.

Wait, would drawing directly be a bit unstable? While rubbing his hands, Lu G thought to himself, forget it.

Who knows when the next golden treasure chest will come? Just go for it.

Give me a draw.

Damn, my eyes.

The treasure chest opened and the dazzling golden light that burst forth from the gap was as blinding as ever.

Luog, who hadn't te opened a golden treasure chest in a long time.

Completely forgot about this.

In a moment of carelessness, he was blinded.

At the same time, the system prompt echoed in his mind.

System prompt.

Congratulations, player Luo G, for obtaining a golden level.

Golden level.

The moment he heard these three words, Lu Gi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was a golden treasure chest, there was still a chance to draw a silver level item.

So far, his luck had been quite good.

He and T been let down before.

Generally, as long as it was a golden level item, it wouldn't t be too bad, and it would always come in handy.

System prompt.

Congratulations, player Lu OG, for obtaining the golden level skill book shield and sword infantry specialization.

Golden level.

what the shield and sword infantry.

After regaining his sight, Lu G stared at the golden level skill book in his system backpack with a mix of joy and worry.

The joy was that it was a skill book from the unit specialization series, which Lu G personally considered one of the most useful military skill books.

Not to mention, it was for the shield and sword infantry, the main infantry unit on the cold weapon battlefield.

This skill book, if auctioned, would definitely fetch an astronomical price, proving its worth.

But the worry was that the unit type conflicted, discounting the detailed differences, shield axmen, shield, and sword infantry, and sword and shield infantry could all be classified under the same category of shieldbearing infantry.

From both a player s perspective and that of a ruler of a highly developed civilization considering his current situation, having two units of the same type would undoubtedly lower the cost effectiveness.

However, if the shield axemen were to transition to shield and sword infantry, the workload for the armory department would likely make Lu Shu, the head of the armory, work himself to exhaustion.

It was too easy to forge so many battle swords, but if it didn't teach transition, this highest level golden skill book was something Luog found hard to give up.

After a moment of internal struggle, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

First, control the number of shield axemen.

From now on, temporarily halt the expansion of the shield axemen troop limit and reduce the number of bronze battle axes that the armory department needed to forge each month by half.

The freed up craftsman would all focus on forging bronze battle swords.

Luog set a six-month plan for himself.

He would spend the next 6 months both stockpiling battle swords and creating a brand new shield and sword infantry unit.

Given the current speed of his civilization s development.

After 6 months, raising two shield units should be more than sufficient.

At that time, he would let Luo Yong continue to lead the shield axemen while the shield and sword infantry would be handed over to someone else.

However, he was still a bit hesitant about this choice of person.

After all, it was a golden level unit specialization skill book, and he wanted to find a commander with high leadership to maximize the advantages of the specialization skill book.

The problem was that he couldn't he think of any particularly suitable candidates at the moment.

He decided to wait and see if he could find someone with high leadership talents as he continued to develop.

With this thought in mind, Luog decisively purchased an additional system warehouse slot to temporarily store the golden level skill book, then opened the auction house and used the civilization points previously contributed by Wong Lu Zong to quickly buy a silver level bronze battle sword forging blueprint for the armory department, improving the forging efficiency and success rate of bronze battle swords while also saving some resources.

By the way, due to the different metal materials, the forging methods would also vary to some extent.

Therefore, these types of blueprints were meticulously differentiated.

For example, the bronze battle sword was one blueprint, while the black iron battle sword was another.

This distinction was actually a good thing for players of the bronze tier, at least in Luog's view.

It kept the prices of the forging blueprints relatively stable, meaning they wouldn't te inflated to an exaggerated level.

Moreover, with a variety of cold weapons, it effectively avoided situations where blueprints would be sold out immediately upon listing.

Then time passed quietly with the effect of the peace treaty fading.

Those players who have been eyeing him immediately intruded.

System prompt.

Player Dong Naan is invading your civilization.

So that it this newcomer is unexpectedly fierce.

No wonder Wong Lu Xang got taken down.

Gazing at the distant city with towering rock walls, Zhao Dong Nan, clad in bronze armor and military attire, smirked, his smile carrying an obvious chill.

But I'm not like that fool Wong Lu Zong.

I prefer to go all out from the start.

Attack as he spoke.

Zhao Dong Nan waved his hand and his troops immediately began to advance.

The curtain on the siege battle slowly rose with the sound of heavy footsteps.

Meanwhile, on the other side, as time passed, Lu Gi, dressed in military attire, was quietly waiting in the military camp of Mingjing City.

The tightly clenched fists he unconsciously held proved that his inner turmoil was far from the calm exterior he displayed.

Due to the connection of territories, the invading players could not directly threaten his main city right away.

However, on the flip side, information transmission in this era took time and Luog located in Ming Jing City found it difficult to discover the presence of the invaders at the first moment.

Where would Joe Dong and be randomly teleported by the system? To the west, north, or perhaps to the Iron Wall tribe, or even directly to the grasslands.

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu G couldn't te help but feel a bit anxious.

Known for his patience, it was the first time he clearly felt how torturous waiting could be.

At the same time, just then, outside the west gate of Ming Jing City, a person on horseback rushed in their arrival like a stone thrown into Mingjing Lake, creating ripples that shattered the tranquility of the entire Ming Jing city.

Urgent report from the front lines.

Shiuan City has been breached.

Chapter 240.

Breaking the city.

Urgent report from the front line.

Shiuan City has been breached.
