Chapter 374: The Ruffian Army

"Tianlong Realm? What kind of place is that?" Shi Yan came to Zhi Sheng and asked.

"My Lord, the Tianlong Realm is a large realm not far from the Binhai Realm. It is the largest realm in the Eastern Heaven Realm of the Huangtian Realm. It is the third largest city in the Huangtian Realm in terms of science and education. It is the central city of the Huangtian Realm region. It is an important center of politics, military, science and education, culture, industry, finance and commerce, and a hub of comprehensive transportation. The Tianlong Realm has a long history. When my Huangtian ancestor conquered the Tianlong Realm three thousand years ago, the Tianlong Realm already had a history of more than 20,000 years of city construction and nearly 15,000 years of capital construction."

Hearing Zhi Sheng's reply, Shi Yan's anger surged wildly. The history of three thousand years ago was the darkest period in human history, but in the mouths of the Great Dao creatures, it was like a holy war. How could Shi Yan not be angry? However, Shi Yan knew that the overall situation was more important, so he suppressed his anger and even squeezed out a smile to listen to Zhi Sheng's story.

"The Tianlong Realm is a hub connecting the east and the west, an important gateway to the Huangtian Realm, the central realm of the Dongtian Realm, and an important industrial realm. In the entire Huangtian Realm, it is ranked among the top five, and is also very famous in the entire Three Realms. In particular, the Tianlong Realm's capital Jinling City is a prosperous city. There is a poem that says:

"Zhongshan is as beautiful as a coiled dragon, and it doesn't matter if you dig a mountain to bury gold. The purple gold king gave birth to the Six Dynasties, and Yixian even slept in the mausoleum." This is the city of Jinling. There is a long river in Jinling City, called Qinhuai River. This Qinhuai River is not simple, it is the favorite place of talented scholars and beautiful women. There are many popular stories on the Qinhuai River. "

"It can be said that the success of the Tianlong Realm will be achieved in Jinling City!"

Zhi Sheng finished speaking in one breath, then looked at Shi Yan and said, "My Lord, do you want to go to Jinling for a stroll? I have also been to Jinling City a few years ago. If you don't mind, I will be your guide and lead the way."

Shi Yan smiled and glanced at him, "If I take you away, I'm afraid your father will come to me to look for you in two days."

There is a story circulating in Dongbai City that a few years ago, the young city lord Zhi Sheng went to Jinling for a trip. He lingered in a flower boat on the Qinhuai River and did not return for three months. In the end, the city lord went to the flower boat to catch him and brought him back. Since then, Zhi Chao has not allowed Zhi Sheng to set foot in Jinling.

Zhi Sheng smiled awkwardly, "Good news never travels far, but bad news travels a thousand miles. I didn't expect this matter to reach the ears of the Marquis."

Shi Yan smiled and said, "Okay, Jinling won't take you there, but I can bring you some gifts. Tell me, what do you want?"

When Zhisheng heard there was a gift, his eyes lit up and drooled, "I want Miss Cui'er from the Lou Mengfang on the Qinhuai River."

Shi Yan was speechless and kicked him out. It turned out that the reason he lingered on the flower boat and refused to go home three years ago was because of Miss Cui'er from Lou Mengfang!

Shi Yan picked a few people to go with him, because it was Long Er who was tracking them, so Long Er had to go. Mo Chou had encountered a bottleneck in his enlightenment of the power of the Dao, so he was brought along to let him integrate into the world of the Dao creatures, hoping that it would help him understand the power of the Dao. Then, there was Mo Buyong. Shi Yan was careful to bring Mo Buyong with him. Although Mo Buyong was "despicable", "shameless" and "vulgar", some things could only be done by people with these "advantages". Finally, there were Duan Sui'an and Lin Shanhan. Duan Sui'an was brought up by Shi Yan, so naturally he hoped that he could grow better, so he would take him with him when he went out for big or small things. As for Lin Shanhan, he recommended himself, saying that he wanted to understand the weapons of the Dao creatures. Shi Yan thought about it and put him in the team.

As for Mo Zixie, he stayed in the Daewoo Dragon Boat. Apart from Shi Yan, the most prestigious person here was Mo Zixie. Moreover, Mo Zixie also had to study the puppets recorded in "Mozi". In order to facilitate Mo Zixie's research, Shi Yan specially opened a research room inside the Daewoo Dragon Boat, and moved the research room of the puppet base in the Cang Nei Space out and placed it in the Daewoo Dragon Boat. In this way, even if he did not enter the Cang Nei Space, Mo Zixie could still conduct research, and at the same time, he could also pass on the research results to the base in the Cang Nei Space.

However, before setting off, I was told that someone was coming to visit.

The person who came was none other than the attendant of the third prince Li Tiancheng, who had just met yesterday. Li Tiancheng's attendant came to convey a message, telling him that Li Tiancheng wanted to meet him.

In order to put the whole show on hold, Shi Yan had to put his plan on hold and go to Binhai City with the attendant to meet the third prince Li Tiancheng.

Shi Yan rode on a red-horned horse, following Li Tiancheng's attendant, and walked along the way. The red-horned horse is a spiritual beast with a red single horn on its forehead. It looks like a Shu horse, but its size, strength and speed are much higher than that of a Shu horse.

The attendant sent by the third prince Li Tiancheng is called Niu Quanli. Although the name is vulgar, according to Zhisheng, this Niu Quanli is an absolute master. Zhisheng has a special ability, which is to see through the level of the power of the avenue. It was because of this that he saw through Shi Yan's fourth-level power at once. Although Niu Quanli is only a holder of the first-level power of the avenue, if they really fight, even a holder of the third-level power of the avenue may not be able to defeat him. But then again, if you are not strong enough, how can you become the prince's attendant? From this point, the experiment also learned a piece of news. Unlike human cultivation, the level is not a proof of strength.

He galloped all the way, heading northwest. In less than half an hour, he had already left the territory of Dongbai City. To go to Binhai City, one must first go to Shaohong City, the largest city closest to Dongbai City, and then be transported there by the teleportation array. However, his follower Niu Quanli did not go to Shaohong City.

Shi Yan was not familiar with the terrain. Seeing Niu rushing along silently, he was puzzled and urged his horse to run parallel to him, saying loudly, "Brother Niu, where are we going?"

Niu Quanli slowed down the horse and said with a smile, "We were in such a hurry that we forgot to tell Lord Bai Po. We are heading towards Yishan, where several groups of people are waiting for us."

"Yishan? Troops? Didn't the Third Prince want to see me? Why did he go to Yishan?" Shi Yan knew this place. It was about 1,200 miles away from Dongbai City and separated from Binhai City by a trench. He had seen this place when he was looking at the map last night. Because there was no city icon on the edge of the trench, he was curious, so he looked at it a few more times. He didn't expect that he would go there today.

"That's right. Lord Bai Po is now the prince's chief of staff, so naturally he will take you to see his soldiers." Niu Quanli said with a smile.

"Soldiers?" No wonder there is no city in that place suitable for construction. It turns out that it is the location of the barracks. Shi Yan smiled bitterly. He just decided on the position of the staff general yesterday. Is it too hasty to organize the troops today? Is there something urgent in the meantime?

While thinking, Shi Yan asked with a smile: "Brother Niu, I wonder how many troops are stationed in Yishan?"

Niu Quanli thought for a moment and said, "There are two groups of troops, each with a total of one thousand men. In addition, there are soldiers who have retired from the battlefield, but they are still on the way and will arrive in the next few days. The main purpose of going today is to familiarize yourself with the details of the army so that you can command them in the future."

Shi Yan nodded and stopped asking. However, at this moment, Shi Yan's mind was full of the affairs of the Tianlong Realm. He wanted to finish the affairs here as soon as possible and rush to the Tianlong Realm. So he raised the whip and whipped it hard, and the red-horned horse neighed and ran faster.

Although

Yishan is 1,200 meters away from Dongbaicheng, but with the Red-horned Horse running at full speed, they arrived there in just three hours.

If we follow the usual journey, it will probably take another hour.

When they arrived at Yishan, the red-horned horse was already foaming at the corners of its mouth. If it continued running at this speed for another hour or two, it would probably faint from exhaustion.

When we arrived at Yishan, we saw from afar several tents with lights on and people around, it was quite lively.

The two armies together had a total of 2,000 people. Although not many, it was the first time for Shi Yan, who was leading troops for the first time, to see so many soldiers gathered together. In the Xuanlong Realm, although wars of varying sizes continued, they were all small-scale fights. Where had you ever seen so many people fighting? Although the number of people in the battle of the Four Directions attacking Bei'e Mountain was much greater than this, Shi Yan had already arrived here at that time.

As Niu Quanli walked into the military camp, he came to the largest tent, lifted the curtain and let Shi Yan in.

Inside the tent, the Third Prince Li Tiancheng was looking at a huge military map with his hands behind his back. When he heard the noise, he turned around and said with a smile, "Brother Haotian, you're here!"

"Your humble servant Haotian pays homage to the prince!" Shi Yan bowed, but his eyes were fixed on the map behind Li Tiancheng.

This is a complete strategic map that includes all three major war zones. There are also yellow and green flags on the map, perhaps representing the soldiers of the two sides.

"It seems that the heart of this third prince is not small!" Shi Yan sighed in his heart. He originally thought that it was just for the Qingtian soldiers who appeared in Binhaijie. But at this moment, there are so many battles, I am afraid it is more than that.

I heard that Li Tiancheng's elder and second brothers were both fighting on the front lines, making great achievements and being admired by others. They were both popular candidates for the next Huang Tian. Only the third prince Li Tiancheng stayed alone in the capital. Outsiders thought that the third prince didn't care about the Huang Tian throne, but now it seems that it's the opposite.

Shi Yan smiled secretly, "But this is even better. The more chaotic you are, the freer I will be."

"Brother Haotian, come and take a look at this map. What do you think?" Li Tiancheng pulled Shi Yan over and asked, pointing at the map.

Shi Yan paused and said, "I wish I could gallop here, not here!" With the first here, Shi Yan pointed to the sky between the blue sky and the blue sky, and with the second here, he represented the coastal world.

"Haha, I hope so too. It's just that in the eyes of others, we are inexperienced and going to the front line would be a waste of our lives." Li Tiancheng sighed, shook his head and said nothing, as if he was waiting for Shi Yan to speak.

Shi Yan knew it well, so he continued, "Humph, let them open their eyes and watch carefully. Our troops on the front line are not weak at all."

"Okay! With your words, I will hand over these two ruffian armies to you with confidence. I hope you can train them into an invincible army that is always victorious in every battle!" After saying that, he patted Shi Yan's shoulder, said a few words of encouragement, and left.

Li Tiancheng had been gone for quite a while, but Shi Yan's mind was still in a daze. "Ruffian Army? Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

Shi Yan hurriedly cleared the tent and saw that after the third prince left, the camp became more lively than before.

"It's almost time, whether it's big or small, place your bets quickly!"

“Buy more and earn more, buy less and earn less!”

"Single, single, single! Haha, it's single!"

This is not a military camp, it's clearly a casino!

However, just because of his gambling habit, he cannot be called a rogue soldier.

PS: It’s really a bummer. My computer broke down before the New Year and there was no place to get it repaired, so I had to go to an internet cafe to write.
