In the year 7296 of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the people of the Northern Lands migrated.

The migration was estimated to have a population of several million. Along the way, the people of the western border provided some food, and with the help of Northern Ice River Town, the Star-Moon Army, and the Western Garrison Army, by the time they reached the end of the migration, 30% of the population had died.

In other words, hundreds of thousands of people had died along the way. This number might seem unremarkable, but it represented the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives.

Everyone was silent as millions of Qin soldiers attacked the Great Zhou.

If the Star Moon Army did not stop them from moving westward, the casualties of the civilians would probably be even higher.

Moving the people to the target location was only the first step of this refugee wave. After all, the people had to engage in production to support their families. Before there was a source of food, the refugees were far from having the ability to survive.

During this period of time, Li Yueming’s energy was almost all on this matter.

It couldn’t be helped. If the refugees weren’t settled, the reputation of the Starmoon Army, which had been painstakingly built for more than ten years, would be ruined.

Only by properly handling this batch of refugees and letting everyone see the Starmoon Army’s attitude towards the citizens could the Starmoon Army gain a firm foothold in the hearts of the citizens.

The people were the most ignorant, but they were also the smartest.

According to Li Yueming’s ruling experience in the previous worlds and his knowledge from earlier times, whoever could control the hearts of the people would have an invincible sharp sword.

In order to distribute more food to the refugees in the western frontier.

Li Yueming implemented a food distribution system in North Glacier Town and the Star Moon Army.

Over the years, because of You Aotian’s tacit approval, the Star Moon Army, which was guarding the Twelve Northern Cities, had actually subtly assimilated the soldiers of the Northern Battlefront Army. This was also the main reason why so many soldiers of the Northern Battlefront Army were willing to leave with the Star Moon Army after they announced their withdrawal from the Northern Battlefront.

Although they were still part of the Northern Battlefront Army in name, they were trained by the Star Moon Army.

In fact, it was already equivalent to a part of the Starmoon Army.

Now that they were merged together, it was a matter of course.

The Northern Battlefront Army’s only requirement was that the name of the Northern Battlefront Army could not be changed, and the flag of the Northern Battlefront Army had to be used.

This is a kind of inheritance, also is the northern army soldiers to the proud days and the last salutation of the army guarding the north.

Li Yueming was naturally satisfied.

At this point, the Star-Moon Army’s Northguard Corps was established. The Star-Moon Army, which had shrunk to only about 200,000 soldiers, suddenly expanded to more than 300,000 soldiers.

The Qin army had occupied the twelve cities in the north, but there were still other small towns in the north that had not been occupied.

To the Qin army, these small towns in the north were poor and run-down. Other than wasting energy and rations, they could not get any benefits.

Therefore, he couldn’t be bothered with these small towns.

This gave the Starmoon Troop a chance to expand.

The current Great Zhou’s control over the Northern Lands was undoubtedly at its lowest in the past 5,000 years.

The officials and soldiers of the small towns in the north were basically at a loss.

They did not dare to attack the Qin army, nor did they dare to surrender..
