Since Stone Desert City came back, it seems difficult for me to stop at Gama City.
Starting from Triumphant Return Ceremony, to the backlash of Medusa, to the matter of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran, to the matter of the Snake-People Tribe and my Capping Ceremony...
Many things were crowded together, which undoubtedly made me a little tired, but I couldn't stop. I could only finish one thing and then the next, and I didn't even have time to play with Sun Er.
This makes me think deeply about what I am doing all this for.
After selling Azure Lotus Core Flame, I have a Dou Emperor guard and enough resources.
Perhaps the most important thing I should do is to find a place to practice peacefully. After I have completed Dou Emperor and broken into Dou Zong, I can then join the world and become invincible to the Gamma Empire and even several nearby countries, and dominate one area.
But this is a bit boring. Even if I have enough resources, it will be ten or twenty years before I break into Dou Zong.
How could I, a young man, endure such a long period of hard training?
Qing Shan Green water, leisurely Bamboo Grove, a thatched cottage, that is the home of a hermit who has seen through the world, and it is definitely not me!
Because in this earthly world, there are so many things that I miss. Family and friends, family love, power, food and wine, and even... those fair and tender young ladies like Mutton Fat Jade
How could I watch Snake-People Tribe and Chuyun Empire destroy these beautiful things!
I can only stand up and stop all this, so that it cannot happen - at least not around me.
"Commandant, Commandant!"
There was a shout in my ears, and I came back to my senses. My eyes fell on Mo Wang in front of me. He was wearing Silvery White armor, tall and strong, standing in front of my car, holding his fists and saying:
"Commandant, everything is ready and ready to go."
It was morning and the sun was shining brightly.
I stood on War Chariot, lowered my head and looked down, and saw nearly 700 people standing in the open space outside the north gate of Gama City.
On the second day of the coronation ceremony, I was appointed by the emperor as a captain. A captain is a military officer, and his duties are to "appoint military officials, manage soldiers and armor, organize the army and military uniforms, read the golden drums and flags, lead the troops into battle formations, and defeat the enemy's camp."
To be specific, he is the general who controls about 10,000 soldiers. And the 697 people in front of me are all the "help" given to me by the Nalan Family.
Among them, 516 soldiers wearing Scarlet Heavy Armor can serve as short-hand soldiers to protect my safety;
One hundred and three Law Enforcement Hall personnel in black clothes and black hats can serve as military judges and establish my dignity;
Seven Alchemist and thirty-five ordinary Alchemist can heal wounds and save people, and win over my military morale;
The remaining thirty-six are talents in various fields, similar to my "staff group", who can make suggestions for me.
With these 697 people in front of me, even though I am only seventeen years old, I am still enough to command an army of tens of thousands of people!
Young man Wan Dou Sun!
I stood on top of War Chariot, with the corner of my mouth slightly raised, and tilted my head to look towards the city. It was just a Commandant who was going on an expedition, so naturally there would not be any grand ceremony. Only my biological father, Nalan Tu, came to see him off with a few people.
I took a deep breath, bowed to him solemnly, and then looked at Mo Wang. He is now my subordinate officer "Sima" - compared to his original position of Wu Si City, he has been promoted.
"Let's go!"
He clenched his fists in response, passed it on again, and shouted loudly, "Order Commandant, let's go!"
The team of 700 people slowly started to move and headed back to the north. I was in the lead. Looking ahead, I saw a large plain on the outskirts of Gama City, with a very wide field of vision.
I looked around and saw endless wheat fields on the roadside, with towering towers in the distance, and hundreds of farmers nearby, scattered in the fields, busy harvesting the golden wheat.
In the past, I went there, and the millet and grain were blooming. Now I come to think about it, and the rain and snow carried me along the way.
When I left Gama City for Azure Lotus Core Flame, the wheat fields on the outskirts of the city were still green. But now, the wheat has matured.
Why am I so hurried and busy?
The king's affairs are many and difficult, so he will not hesitate to return home. Why don't you read this simple letter in fear of returning home?
My eyes followed Tu Road and looked farther away. From here to Northern Region, we would pass many cities along the way.
The ten thousand soldiers who belong to me will join me under my banner along the way. Like a snowball, and like the rivers returning to the sea, the seven hundred people at this time will turn into an army of ten thousand people when Anbei City arrives!
However, my destination is far from Anbei City, but a place further north...
The mountains are high and the roads are long. A few miles after leaving Gama City, I got off the War Chariot and boarded the more comfortable and gentle Comfort Carriage.
This Comfort Carriage owns a carriage. I summoned Mo Wang into the carriage and ordered:
"Mo Wang, I have urgent secret matters to do now, and I must leave. So, I will leave you to handle the matters of receiving soldiers along the way and all other matters."
"It doesn't require you to be good at what you do, as long as you do one thing well..."
I raised my head suddenly, looked straight at him, and said in a deep voice, "Hide my whereabouts so that everyone along the way will think that I am still in the team."
"You... can do it!"
Mo Wang frowned, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "The subordinates can't do it. Many things along the way need to be handled by Commandant personally..."
I pursed my lips tightly, took out Commandant and Gilded Silver Tiger Tally from Ring of Holding, and passed on another talisman, saying:
"My lieutenant is ill, and all matters will be left to Mo Wang Sima--it can be done now, right?"
Mo Wang looked at the tiger charm handed in front of him and felt a burst of emotion. When he became the master of Wu Si City, he only had one piece of Gilded Bronze Tiger Tally in his hand, but I, a child, had Gilded Silver Tiger Tally - how can I not make people sigh?
He stretched out his hands, solemnly accepted the tiger talisman and the Ying talisman, bowed his hands and said, "Commandant Don't worry, I will definitely not let outsiders notice anything is wrong."
"If not, Commandant can chop my head off!"
I shook my head, reached out and held his wrist, and said, "If I didn't believe you, why would I tell you this? Don't say it again."
Mo Wang came out of Comfort Carriage. He didn't like riding in cars and was still used to riding horses. And among the 700 of us, none of us walked. We either rode war horses or cars. Our marching speed was not slow. By evening, we had arrived at a small town seventy miles away.
Mo Wang They set up camp, and I quietly got out of the carriage in the dusk and walked to the outskirts.
"Little doll, here we come"
There is already an old man waiting here, it is none other than Ling Ying who stayed to be my guard!
I smiled slightly, cupped my hands and said, "I've seen Elder Ling."
Seeing that I was still polite, Ling Ying looked better. Today he was no longer wearing a black robe, but Green Robe. He had a goatee under his chin and looked like an old man from a wealthy family.
"If you really want to go to the Snake-People Tribe, it's not a good place. Once a fight breaks out, I may not be able to escape with you."
"Elder Ling, our trip is not to fight, but to form an alliance."
"... Then let's go."
"Wait a minute, senior, I haven't had dinner yet. Let me finish the dried meat before setting off."
Ling Ying's expression froze, and Dou Qi, who was running, forcibly calmed down, glanced at me a few times but didn't say anything in the end, and sat down to wait.
I nodded secretly. He is really a good guard, without Dou Huang expert's weird temperament and majesty. That's right, after being Shadow Guard by Xun Er's side for so many years, what kind of temper can he have?
After hastily eating the dried meat, Ling Ying rushed into the sky with me on his back and flew towards the north at high speed.
The wind was strong, the night was deep, and a bit cold, but the moonlight was very bright, illuminating the road ahead clearly.
