"You Duo Shao?"

Lin Che looked at the huge box in front of him and opened it. There was silver, gold, and most of it was banknotes.

At this moment, Lin Che missed her rebellious son very much. If she had it, she would know how much it was worth the moment she picked it up.

Yan Bupo said quickly, "We've counted it. It should be 6,710,000... er, 4,333 taels. No, 3,444. Yeah, that's correct."

After Yan Bupo finished speaking, he blushed a little. During this period, he had been counting money until his hands cramped. He hoped that the Son of God would not blame him.

“You did a great job!”

Lin Che nodded. Compared to his big book-selling business, it seemed less, but it was nearly seven million, which was definitely a huge sum!

This path is absolutely right.

He didn't count them and directly put them into the Cangtian Bag. Yan Bupo was very touched when he saw this. The Son of God really trusted him!

"Since we've made money, pass the word down, everyone gather—we're going to distribute the military pay."

Yan Bupo was startled, scratched his head, and asked:

"Son of God, what does it mean to pay the soldiers?"

This child is hopeless.

This reaction made it seem as if he, the Son of God, had been abusing them all the time.

"You don't need to understand, just pass the order on."

"yes--"

Soon, the military order spread.

A group of officers who were gathered together and talking about recent interesting things were also stunned after hearing this.

Wu Heiyu's reaction was the same: "Pay military salaries, what do you mean by pay military salaries?"

"Military pay... Hey, it sounds so familiar. I, I seem to have heard of it." Zhou Xianchun grinned, as if a word in his throat could explain it to everyone.

Kuntai was shocked: "Military pay? Paying money, you, you didn't pass on the wrong order, did you?"

Gong Qiu shook his head: "Do we have such a thing in the Shenjiying? Oh - pay! Yes, we are paid when we join the army, we are paid!"

"Really? Come on, go check it out! Quick!!"

Crash!

The 40,000-strong Shenjiying army began to gather.

Lin Che stood on the Thunder Lion's head, allowing all the soldiers to see him clearly.

He shook the cape behind him, and a righteous spirit burst out from him:

"Soldiers—"

"Listen carefully, gentlemen! I am now offering you the gold and pearls in my purse, not as a reward for your bravery, but as a token of your loyalty, a token of your shared weeping for the country. We are not the meat eaters of the imperial court, but your fellow soldiers who will die for you..."

At this point, the whole audience fell silent.

Every face showed confusion.

"Well said!!" The only voice in the audience came from Zhou Xianchun.

Lin Che felt a little embarrassed and changed her approach:

"Brothers and sisters—now we have money. Today we will give everyone one thousand taels of silver."

Crash!!

Suddenly, the whole audience burst into warm applause and deafening cheers.

Lin Che waved at the guards: "Give out the money—"

The guards carried large boxes, moved quickly among the team, and began to distribute money.

Many soldiers were moved to tears after receiving the money:

"The Son of God treated us so well. I only took three blows, and I got a thousand taels."

"Gouzi, how much is one thousand taels?"

"It's your father and mother who went out hunting and then sold the items. They saved up that much over twenty years."

"So much? Can I return it to the Son of God? He provides me with food, shelter, equipment, weapons, and martial arts. He hasn't even charged me. How can we ask for his money? How can he make so much money?"

Lin Che had good hearing, so she naturally heard all of these words.

I thought it was funny at first, but for some reason, the smile slowly faded, and an inexplicable sadness welled up in my heart.

The soldiers' wages had not yet been distributed when Yu Huadian suddenly came to report:

"Master, Taoist Zhouxu wants to see you!"

"Huh? Why is he following us here instead of staying in Liangjie City?"

Soon, Taoist Zhouxu appeared panting, and it seemed that he had been chasing us all the way.

"General Lin Che, I'm here to deliver a letter."

"Thank you for your help, Lao Zhou."

Lin Che took the letter and opened it. It was a handwritten letter from Wen Hong:

Champion Hou Linche:

Yunzhou is the gateway to Yanyun, its mountains treacherous and narrow, where Mohist crossbowmen lurk like a forest. Mobei's wolves lurk nearby, and the Yuxu demonic Daoists have resurrected. I fear they are using the defeated army as bait to lure your lone army deep within their territory. If you fall into their trap, your food supply will be cut off, leaving you vulnerable from both front and back.

I hope you will temporarily restrain your attacks, unite the troops of the two realms, strengthen your armaments, and wait for the right time and place to attack Huanglong again. Although I am old, I can still support you with my sharp weapons.

Swords have no eyes, be careful! 】

It seems that General Wen Hong is worried that he is too impulsive and will run into obstacles in Yanyun Kingdom.

This is to tell him not to chase him anymore and it would be better to call off the attack.

But how could Lin Che miss such an opportunity?

Although the 150,000-strong army of Yanyun Kingdom was not completely annihilated, it was absolutely impossible for them to return to Yanyun Kingdom in a short time.

Now is the time when Yanyun Kingdom has no reinforcements.

Once in a lifetime!

"Please inform the old general that I already fully understand his intentions. But my Divine Machine Camp will not stop. I hope we can meet in Youzhou!"

Lin Che bowed to Taoist Zhouxu. Although his words were few, they already showed his determination.

Taoist Zhouxu wanted to say something but stopped himself and could only retreat.

Lin Che thought of something else. He reached out and condensed his righteous energy into a thousand paper cranes. He quickly wrote: [Master Ji Bu, please tell His Majesty for me. I, Lin Che, will risk my life for my beloved. Now, for her, I will flatten the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!]

Not long.

The 40,000-strong army of the Shenji Camp ran wildly.

This time, he went straight to Yunzhou of Yanyun Kingdom. What was his purpose?

To vent personal anger? He had been a hostage for ten years, but he had been teased and humiliated by the royal family of Yanyun for ten years.

To avenge the Black Armor Army? Wen Hong had treated him with such kindness that he nearly died under the siege of the Yanyun army.

Or was it for Her Majesty the Empress? If he really conquered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he would definitely have enough capital to be on par with Jiang Li.

Yes, but not entirely.

In Lin Che's heart, there was an inexplicable complex: the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun must be taken back!

The countries are divided and must be unified!

Dagan, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, Mobei, the coastal states, the Cangwu Abyss, etc., must be unified! !

Furthermore, he was well aware of the rules of this world, and he didn't want to face the high-handedness of a sect like the Yuxu Palace again. He didn't want to follow his 40,000-man Divine Machine Battalion on his expeditions, only to end up an old and helpless man.

Money! Territory! Power! He wants it all, including the Empress!

A day later, the Shenjiying army crushed the border outposts of Yanyun State and officially entered the territory of Yanyun State.

Another half day passed!

The army of Shenjiying is mighty, with flags flying and military spirits roaring. No one can stop the army passing through.

When the first rays of sunlight shone upon Yunzhou City, Lin Che's Divine Machine Battalion was already at the gates...

Five stars
