As the governor of Jizhou, does Han Fu have the power to command local troops? In principle, there is no such thing as the navy on the Yellow River, the troops that are now confronting the Yellow Turban Army in Guangping City, or the troops that suddenly head north to occupy Nangong County, Anping County, are not Han Fu's troops, but local troops and village warriors.

Therefore, once Lu Zhi arrived in Jizhou and nominally controlled all the troops that surrounded and suppressed the Yellow Turban thieves, the troops in Han Fu's hands could easily be seized. Therefore, Han Fu had the idea of ​​advancing north to Anping, and the so-called generals would not accept the fate of foreign troops.

There is no doubt that if the fifth battalion of the Northern Army enters Jizhou, the first stop will definitely be Guangping, and the first battle will also be very likely to happen in Guangping. Therefore, in order to preserve his elite troops, Han Fu led his two confidant generals to advance north.

Of course, there are also reasons why Yuan Shao cannot take action now. As for seducing Fang Zhiwen to go south to divide Anping County, it is just a by-the-stop idea. If it becomes the best, there will be no loss. As for the commercial route, Han Fu, who is controlled by the Yellow River Navy, actually does not rely heavily on land commercial routes.

In addition, Han Fu is backed by the Central Plains and Bingzhou in the west. Apart from large equipment and military horses, he hardly cares about Youzhou's trade routes, so Tian Feng's judgment in this regard was based on the output and price of military horses in Youzhou. Han Fu has not yet realized that the future of military horses in Liangzhou will not be able to go south. Bingzhou's military horses are insufficient, expensive, and are mostly controlled by Yiren. Therefore, Han Fu does not have the idea of ​​opening up a land trade route at this time.

Even Han Fu's high-speaking Min Chun and Ju Su did not pay enough attention to subtle changes in business, which led to them having to pay a higher price to obtain horses and large-scale war equipment in the future.

However, no matter what Han Fu planned, his troops firmly occupied Nangong County, which is an indisputable fact. Although Yuan Shao was so angry that he jumped, he really did not have the time to retake Nangong County. The battle in Xindu was not over yet. Fang Zhiwen took Anguo, and Hejian, which was close to him, had to strengthen his defense. Pingyuan County also needed to focus on defense. On the one hand, he also had to eliminate the Yellow Turban thieves and bandits in the territory, and prepare for the upcoming spring plowing. The troops in his hands were a little stretched!

....................................................................................

When Jizhou was changing, all parties made plans to fight each other, the situation in Youzhou was still relatively calm. Since Gongsun Zan was mobilizing troops to prepare to go south, Liu Yu was busy using the Yellow Turban Army to attack the powerful clans and rectify his own territory, and Fang Zhiwen focused on Jizhou, so there were almost no major military operations in Youzhou.

Of course, the players in northern Youzhou are unwilling to be lonely, and are still eating the territory of the Hu tribe in the north, Zheluo, Murong Fang, Duanzigang's Northwest War Zone, Li Shehu, and Taishici's Northeast War Zone. In fact, they are all busy taking advantage of the winter to plunder the Hu tribe, forcing the Xianbei people to retreat continuously and then retreat.

As for the southern part of Youzhou and Fengning County, due to the chaos in the Central Plains, it entered a period of small commercial prosperity. All cities were busy producing and producing various strategic materials, as well as related products, making great achievements in war. Moreover, since most of the troops of these players' forces went south, Youzhou seemed particularly peaceful and peaceful.

It is in this context that Miyun City has ushered in another upgrade in a low-key manner. The population of one million, the comprehensive development value of more than 500,000, and the average number of individual indicators, the number of special buildings, functional building grades, etc. finally reached the upgrade standard at the end of January of Guanghe.

As a group of senior executives are busy with Jizhou affairs, the upgrade of Miyun City was carried out under the witness of Zhen Jiang, Tian Chou, Cui Lin, Lin Wenzhi and others.

In fact, the upgrade of the second-level city is very low-key. It is definitely not as exciting as before. This upgrade is almost silent. If the residents and players in the city don’t pay attention, they will not notice that the city has been upgraded. On the outside, the city wall has become taller and thicker. It has reached a height of seven meters, and there is almost no change in other places. However, this time the city has actually undergone a huge qualitative change.

First of all, the scope of the city has not been further expanded. If it expands, the entire map will be filled with the city. Therefore, a radius of forty miles is the largest area of ​​the city. But if it is not expanded, how can the number of residents be increased?

There are 500,000 residents in first-level cities, 1 million upgrade standards for second-level cities, and 2 million upgrade standards for third-level cities. Where do the extra population live?

This is the so-called qualitative change and the application of expanding space.

Water veins will appear in secondary cities, which is a must. Then the farmland and pasture outside the city will be connected to the city in the form of spatial connection. A large number of farmland and pastures will exist in the form of expansion space. Then all the residents' residences will appear in the form of expansion space, similar to the inns, the same city and the same street, but the upper limit for population accommodation has been completely cancelled. In other words, if you can get 10 million people, the city can also be installed, but the doors on the street appear more.

And in this qualitative change, the most gratifying thing is farmland, pasture and other facilities. Only then did Fang Zhiwen understand why cities above level 2 are basically unable to be compromised from the outside, because they are unable to die of farming and grazing in the city. There are mountains in cities like Miyun, and there is no shortage of wood on the mountain, or what is missing is minerals.

After the upgrade, the farmland and pastures outside Miyun City can only be viewed from a distance but not played nearby. Only logging farms and mines can be opened. The farmland and pastures in the city are configured according to the development degree of the city. The more developed the city, the larger the area of ​​farmland and pastures.

The only thing that makes people feel uncomfortable is that these expanded spaces cannot exist without the environment and climate, which means that natural disasters still exist. In addition, when cities are besieged, the output of these farmlands and pastures will be reduced to a minimum.

The upgrade of Miyun City also increases the level upper limit of the city under its jurisdiction. The level upper limit of the four acropolis can also be raised from a third-level town to a first-level city. As long as various indicators and population keep up, these four levels can become big cities. The player territory can also be upgraded to a first-level city at the highest level, but this seems very difficult and requires the city approval in charge. In other words, Fang Zhiwen has the means to blackmail players in the Miyun Secret Trail.

In addition to these hardware improvements, there are also many changes in soft indicators. First of all, the city's attribute bonus to residents, which has doubled on the original basis. Taking Miyun City as an example, Miyun City will provide 12% offensive and defensive bonuses for residents within the influence of Miyun City, and a 4% bonus for residents' intelligence and mental power. Of course, there are also some other implicit bonuses.

Secondly, the growth attributes of cities have been improved, which is actually an inevitable reason. With a good urban environment, the conditions for survival and development will naturally be better. Then the natural population growth, the improvement of technological and cultural data, the growth of development, etc., will all increase accordingly. However, these data are invisible and will not be discovered in the data comparison after one or two months.

In addition, the functions of various system buildings have been improved, such as the capacity of the barracks outside the city, the throughput capacity of the system stations, the level and number of city copies, etc.

In short, when a city upgrades to a second-level city, it is like being reborn. As long as there is no problem inside the city, the second-level city will basically not fall. Similarly, the development and impact of second-level cities are far higher than ordinary towns, and are a symbol of the emergence and rise of a city cluster, let alone advantageous terrain like Miyun Midao.

What does Miyun City mean when it is upgraded to a second-level city? Those indigenous forces are the clearest. Although Miyun City is very low-key to upgrade, the forces that are always paying attention to will naturally not let go of this information. At the same time, they have also begun to adjust their attitude towards Miyun and increase their commercial investment in Miyun City.

The happiest thing about the city's successful upgrade is naturally the professional players in Miyun City, especially those who grow animal husbandry. In the past, they had to go outside the city to farm, grow pesticides, raise horses, fish, deer and dogs. It took a lot of time to run around every day. You should know that the city is very big.

Now, the so-called farmland expansion space, as long as you go to the government to purchase the right to use the land, the government will connect the entrance of the farmland ranch to its own backyard. It is not centralized. This greatly facilitates players and the indigenous people in the city to plant and livestock. The players and indigenous people who benefit from it are naturally cheering.

Secondly, there are players and indigenous people who have invested in Miyun City. This is easier to understand. If the city upgrades, the value of the industry will naturally be upgraded, and you will make a lot of money!

Finally, there are naturally the officials of all sizes in Miyun City, including Tian Chou, Li Xueyin, Zhen Jiang, etc. who are mainly involved in urban construction, and they all received rewards from political and intellectual experience. Tian Chou even received 3 political points, laughing so hard that he could not see his eyes. Even Li Xueyin, who was far away in Anguo, also received 1 political point, and Zhen Jiang had 1 political and 1 intelligence point. Other officials also gained their own gains. Even the female players who hired as minor officials and yamen runners received a large amount of rewards from political and intellectual experience, and everyone was very happy.

The only psychological imbalance is probably Fang Zhiwen. As the leader of the power, he did not receive any rewards. This has to be said to be a very sad thing. Of course, there is only no personal reward, but there are still rewards for the power. Since it is the first force to upgrade to a second-level city, of course, the original second-level or above city is not counted. The system rewards Fang Zhiwen with a city exclusive architectural drawing - Miyun Eagle Architectural Painting. This statue-like building will be used as a city sign. After the sculpture is completed, the entire influence of Miyun City will appear directly on the city operating platform, just like a real-time 3D satellite map. (To be continued.
