Chaoge Sent Out Troops Again
"Su Changkong, immediately conduct a thorough search of the national treasury. The strategic materials in the treasury have been completely accounted for, and the army is ready to deploy them at any time."
"Liu Sanhe, immediately take His Majesty's Imperial Sword and inspect all the passes near Chaoge, and transfer half of the garrison troops from each pass, ready to be deployed at any time."
"Yang Yanzhao, immediately mobilize the generals who are on leave to resume training and be ready to deploy troops at any time."
There are quite a few veteran officials in the current imperial court who have served three or two reigns.
Although His Human Emperor the Human Emperor is not in Chaoge, he often acts as a hands-off ruler.
These old guys were clearly used to it, and with their Qiankun business sense, they arranged everything step by step.
Despite the complaints, everything was arranged extremely well, and the entire Chaoge was like a giant machine running smoothly without any chaos.
Now that His Majesty has set out on the expedition, reinforcements should immediately and continuously follow.
Otherwise, wouldn't His Majesty be left isolated and alone, like an army deep in enemy territory?
The Zhenzhen danger would come if the war reached a stalemate.
North Sea was, after all, the territory of those Seventy-Two Feudal Lords, with a large population and great power, and it was their land.
Huang Feihu's 80,000 cavalry and His Majesty's 200,000 troops alone are clearly not enough.
The real battle has now begun.
Then all the resources of the Yin Shang had to be mobilized.
In the following period, countless armies marched in a mighty force towards Chaoge.
At the same time, grain stored in granaries all over the country was being transported to Chaoge in a steady stream.
In particular, the eight hundred regional lords across the land have basically all received the imperial edict from Human Emperor Majesty the Emperor.
Although he was unwilling, His Human Emperor had already issued an edict, so he had to show some sincerity, more or less.
In an instant, the entire Yin Shang Dynasty became bustling with activity.
Many ordinary people even spontaneously organized to donate grain and fodder to the imperial court.
This immediately moved all the civil and military officials in the imperial court.
Although the world is still in dire straits, His Majesty has personally led the expedition against them, so as ordinary people, we naturally have something to say.
The current court is deeply loved and respected by the people; it truly reflects the will of the people.
They also absolutely did not believe that His Human Emperor would disappoint them.
In just over ten days.
Chaoge actually managed to gather an army of over 500,000.
In addition, hundreds of thousands of dan (a unit of weight) of grain and fodder have also arrived in Chaoge.
Although the quantity was not large, it was enough for these large armies to use for several months.
Now everything is ready, and we are just waiting for the order to send these troops and supplies north to support His Human Emperor.
Meanwhile, many generals were ready, waiting for the Father of Shang to select them.
Several of them stand out the most.
Among them was Deng Jiugong, the current General of Three Mountains Pass.
There was also Chen Tong, the general of Tong Pass.
Zhang Guifang, the General of Azure Dragon Pass.
General Dou Rong of Youhun Pass, etc.
Hundreds of thousands of troops marched in from Chaoge City, completing their assembly. Banners fluttered in the wind, their fighting spirit soaring, a truly magnificent sight.
Father of Shang Rong, appeared on the city wall, panting heavily.
Looking down at the boundless black army and the billowing smoke, they saw...
As an old man who was on his deathbed, he was also feeling quite emotional at this moment.
Standing atop the highest point of the city wall, he solemnly saluted with both hands, then bowed deeply to the more than 500,000-strong army.
At this moment, everyone seemed to sense it. Even the soldiers on the horizon, who couldn't see Shang Rong clearly, fell into an eerie silence.
Shang Rong Rongzhen held the golden longsword high in the air.
It was the Human Emperor Supreme Sword that Ye Xuan often carried.
This sword has now become an imperial sword.
Seeing the sword is like seeing the man himself.
Shang Rong aloft, shouted at the top of her lungs.
"This is the sacred sword left behind by His Human Emperor. To see this sword is to see His Majesty himself!"
As Shang Rong shouted with all her might.
More than 500,000 soldiers Chaoge City and countless civilians inside the city all knelt down and paid homage to the Human Emperor Supreme Sword in Shang Rong's hand.
"Long live the Human Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
The enormous sound wave generated an unparalleled shockwave that shot straight into the sky, completely shattering the clouds in the heavens.
These shouts and cheers represent the boundless faith and fervor of the Human Emperor in His Majesty the Emperor.
Shang Rong was now enjoying prosperity and honor.
He raised the Human Emperor Supreme Sword high in his right hand and shouted:
"Fellow soldiers, His Human Emperor has been personally leading the northern expedition against the Seventy-Two Feudal Lords for over ten days now."
"Your Majesty is the ruler of Heaven and Earth, and your body is of utmost importance; there can be no mishap whatsoever."
"As the main force supporting the three armies, you shall today march to the North Sea to aid His Human Emperor."
"This old minister, Shang Rong, hopes that you can bring His Human Emperor back intact."
"I, Shang Rong, will take my leave now. Thank you, sirs and soldiers."
"Since the ancient Black Bird descended and gave birth to the Shang Dynasty..."
Then Shang Rong began her incessant pre-battle mobilization.
After a long time, Shang Rong was still rambling on and on, showing no sign of stopping.
Several of the generals below were already showing signs of slight impatience.
"This old man is so long-winded, constantly babbling on and on. It's really getting on my nerves."
"It would be better to send troops sooner rather than later. Perhaps the sooner we send them out, the sooner we can reach the battlefield and fight alongside His Majesty. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
These words were somewhat rude.
This inevitably caused displeasure among the other person nearby.
"Don't be so rude."
Who is Shang Rong?
"He was personally appointed by His Father of Shang, making him a person of higher rank and a highly accomplished senior figure."
"Now, under the rule of the Yin Shang dynasty, there is the scholar Shang Rong Father of Shang and the military Grand Tutor Wen Zhong. One is Grand Tutor Wen peace to the land."
"Even His Human Emperor would show deference to Father of Shang; how dare you, such a rude fellow, spout such arrogant words?"
If you spout any more nonsense, you'll lose your head.
The person who said this was clearly somewhat angry, and therefore couldn't help but whisper a rebuke.
Upon hearing this, the man chuckled awkwardly.
He didn't mean any disrespect; he just felt that the Father of Shang was being a bit long-winded.
"General Zhang, please don't be angry. You know I'm just a rough man, and I didn't mean any disrespect."
"It's just a bit long-winded; it would be better if we could just send out our troops quickly."
The man glanced at him upon hearing this, but ultimately didn't reply.
Hearing the two's pointless conversation, the generals nearby couldn't help but smile.
Actually, they were all rough men, so they were obviously used to such things.
The person didn't mean any disrespect; they were just a bit rude in their speech.
After a long while, Shang Rong's pre-battle pep talk finally came to an end.
With the conclusion of the troop deployment ceremony.
The more than 500,000-strong army transformed into a torrent of steel, disappearing far into the horizon.
