Beside them stood arrayed soldiers in armor from the old city and the royal guards.
They are quickly setting up camp outside the city.
Westburg has already delivered the food and supplies needed by the army.
Everyone knows that a tough battle awaits them in the future.
Lu Bin, the former commander of the Fourth Division of Sand Castle and the current commander of the First Regiment of Spring Soldiers, stared through his binoculars at the West Castle and the walls further away: "Don't forget our purpose. The main reason for stationing troops here is to deter those high-ranking officials and nobles inside Wall No. 1. The master wants to deal with them."
"I see them." Chen Da looked around and saw soldiers from various departments, especially the guards in their uniforms, which made his mouth water.
Those men were eight feet tall, with bulging muscles, fully armed, and as powerful as monsters.
We're all soldiers under the master, so why is there such a big difference between us?
Fortunately, the Sandcastle Spring Soldiers did not lose face.
Their equipment and weapons were the most elite, and the entire army was clad in armor. The bulletproof plates produced in Li Jiuyuan's arsenal protected them from countless bullets.
These days, Chunbing has also gone out for field training exercises.
As the military commander, Chen Da had an obligation to help Qin Che train his troops. He led them to clean up some large motorcycle gangs and violent organizations in the eastern desert region. Their fates were all similar: either the entire army was wiped out, or they were forced to pay for amnesty.
The Spring Soldiers have now expanded to 15,000 men, and with the help of Little Stone's extraordinary abilities, they are invincible.
"The leaders will also be met."
Lu Bin pointed to the distance.
At the front of the formation, Chen Fusheng, Sha Qingsui, and He Gan were shaking hands, smiling and chatting.
A short while later, people from the military came to inform them to assemble.
Chen Da took Xiao Shitou with him and saw the first commanders of each military unit stepping out of the formation. The three sides exchanged glances.
Jiang Cunjian, Cai Dong, Song Zhiming...
They didn't know each other.
But they all sensed a mutual appreciation between each other.
Chen Da complained, "Why is there an old man here? Is he also from the military?"
They have now been incorporated into the military. I heard that the master has temporarily handed over authority to the Grand Chancellor of the Glory Court, an old man named Gu Yu. However, he did not show up today. Instead, he sent a deputy minister, Li Zhanhuo, a close associate of the Chancellor's faction from the Glory Court's government.
This man was slender and had a gentlemanly air about him. He stood next to the three leaders with his hands behind his back, adjusting the frames of his glasses.
Little Stone was quite nervous, but she still took a deep breath and obediently followed behind Chen Da. Because she was still young, she couldn't handle a long gun, so Chen Da gave her a pistol used by guards, as well as the throwing knife that her master used back then.
The flying blade has a wooden handle with intricately carved patterns on small stones, and it needs to be placed under the pillow every night to fall asleep.
Thus, the leaders and high-ranking officials of Sandcastle, Westcastle, and Old Town officially met on the outskirts of Westcastle.
A brand new organization has finally officially formed a collective here.
Li Zhanhuo smiled and said, "The three of you, please inspect the troops and then set off immediately. Prime Minister Gu is in dire need of manpower and needs your assistance. Duke Qin has vouched for your abilities to the Glory Court, and Prime Minister Gu has high expectations for you. He will certainly not treat you unfairly."
Sha Qingsui sighed.
He looked at Chen Fusheng.
Chen Fusheng naturally had nothing to say. Even if Qin Che wanted to transfer him to the border area to stand guard, he would agree, not to go to Wall No. 10.
He Gan, whose loyalty to Qin Che had not been long, still looked somewhat worried: "Before setting off, I had already asked the Society to temporarily take over the administration. I just want to ask one question: Will I be able to come back after going to the Court of Glory?"
Li Zhanhuo stood with his hands behind his back, silently shook his head, and looked resolute.
He Gan sighed.
Sha Qingsui said, "So, the establishment of municipalities is not a rumor, but a fact."
Li Zhanhuo smiled and said, "This is Duke Qin's order. I am just doing the work and dare not say more. The three of you are the same. Even if you are just carrying it out, Duke Qin and Prime Minister Gu naturally have their reasons. Besides, the matter of the No. 1 Wall is about to come to an end. At that time, the three of you can attend the wedding ceremony of Duke Qin and Princess Sa. This is an unparalleled honor."
The three of them said nothing more.
After reviewing the troops with Li Zhanhuo, they left in the royal court's carriage.
Fortunately, they are not without successors.
They have all found successors to ensure the future operation of the Executive Yuan of the special municipalities.
The old city's leader, Zhang Feijun; the sandcastle's administrative chief, Shanshu; and Li Mi and Lina, Qin Gong's two close secretaries from the west fortress.
After being inspected by the leader, Chen Da and others watched them leave.
Then the four of them turned their heads and looked at Li Zhanhuo, the 'newcomer' in the military.
He smiled warmly and said, “Everyone, we will be colleagues from now on. The establishment of the military headquarters is like a newly forged sword. It still needs to be sharpened before it can kill the enemy. There are many people in that wall who are resisting the master’s decisions. Therefore, those high-ranking officials will be our whetstone. In order to fight a tough battle with the northern region in the future, this mission must be completed successfully so as not to disappoint the master.”
The four people, including Chen Da, nodded in agreement.
"You all need to work together during this mission. The military has a suitable plan, and we hope everyone will cooperate. Although I am just a newcomer and this is my first time working in the military, as your deputy minister, I will never let you down. I am in charge of administration and am also a member of the Military Affairs Department. I don't know much about leading troops in battle. I entrust the important task of helping you achieve great things for the master to you."
Chen Da and the other three men saluted Li Zhanhuo.
Although their salute gestures and postures are different...
Li Zhanhuo laughed heartily: "The new discipline will be implemented by the Military Administration Department soon, including military etiquette, uniforms, material distribution, training cooperation, and so on. All matters must be unified. Remember, from now on, the military is one family. We will only obey the orders of our superiors, understand?!"
"clear!"
