Chapter 50: The Gathering of Storms is the Right Time

The result of Chen Hai's discussion with Ge Tong and Shen Kun was naturally to stay. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although this was a little inconsistent with their previous plan, over the years, everyone knew in their hearts how difficult it was to meet a commander in the army who could appreciate and reuse the disciples of the Han Sect.

Although Li Xianghai is now demoted to the captain of Qianwu, it is not difficult for the official to be reinstated, Ge Tong and Shen Kun will follow Li Xianghai to form a new army at this time, and they will be regarded as a descendant by Li Xianghai.

In the future, even if they are not satisfied, Li Xianghai will most likely be able to ensure that they serve as deacons in the Taoist Academy, or serve as soldiers and horses captains and city patrol captains in prefectures and counties......

This is a way out that cannot be missed for the children of the poor family.

Cultivation, who can guarantee that the bottleneck must be broken?

Besides, even if you break through the bottleneck and cultivate to a higher realm, you are destined to still have to find a career.

Not to mention ordinary Xuan Cultivation disciples, even those Dao Dan and Dao Fetal Realm old monsters who have a longevity of several hundred years still have to seek wealth and power in the rolling red dust in the end-otherwise, what are they doing with cultivation?

Chen Hai, Ge Tong, and Shen Kun made up their minds, but they didn't rush to find Li Xianghai, they needed to be a little reserved, at least they couldn't let Li Yulin and Li Hu beside Li Xianghai look too lightly.

Li Xianghai wanted to form a new army, and he had to meet Chai Teng with the Yulong Mansion Army to garrison the northern foot of Yulong Mountain, but he was too busy to see anyone.

Chen Hai, Ge Tong, and Shen Kun lived happily for a few more days, probably because they couldn't guess what Chen Hai was thinking in their hearts, and Zhou Jun finally couldn't bear to take the initiative to come to the door:

"Senior Brother Yao has a better way out, how can Senior Brother Ge and Senior Brother Shen stay?"

Zhou Jun said that he was asking Shen Kun and Ge Tong for advice, but his eyes rolled on Chen Hai's face.

Ge Tong and Shen Kun had a bold temperament, and at this time they also realized that Chen Hai's status in Zhou Jun's mind was more important than he imagined, so he personally came to the door for advice.

After fighting side by side in Jade Dragon Mountain, Chen Hai knew that Zhou Jun's cultivation foundation was much deeper than Ge Tong and Shen Kun.

Ge Tong planned to open up the Spiritual Sea after cultivating the four main qi veins, but looking at Zhou Jun's performance all the way, Chen Hai believed that he had already cultivated at least five main qi veins, and most likely wanted to cultivate the sixth main qi vein, and then open up the spiritual sea on the basis of the six spiritual veins, and his future goal should be to understand the true transmission of the Enlightenment Realm, not a simple inner disciple.

"I don't know if there will be a war between the two towns of Wuwei and Hexiang, but it won't be wrong if the Jade Dragon Mountain will meet at the right time," Chen Hai smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother Zhou has a choice in his heart, why bother asking us to stay ......"

Zhou Jun smiled and said, "Then I will stay too, and I will ask Senior Brother Yao, Senior Brother Shen, and Senior Brother Ge for more support in the future." ”

Zhou Jun is determined to cultivate, he steps into the Soul Clearing Realm, and he can enter the inner gate of the Seven Peaks to practice at any time, but he has no clan support, even if he enters the Upper Seven Peaks to practice, he will be trapped in the lack of cultivation resources.

Even if he has the opportunity to go to the army to practice after entering the inner gate of the Seven Peaks to practice, he may not be sent to Jade Dragon Mountain.

He also agreed with Chen Hai that the time for the Yulong Mountain storm will come, with the contradiction between the Wuwei Army and the two towns of Hexiang made public, the status of the Jade Dragon Mountain in Hexi will become increasingly important, and the Zongmen and the Dadu Protector General's Mansion will tilt a large amount of resources to the Yulong Mountain in the future.

Then it was the best choice for him to stay in Jade Dragon Mountain to occupy a position, and then enter the inner gate of the Seven Peaks to practice, and then return to Jade Dragon Mountain to take up a post.

**************************

After the contradiction between the two towns of Wuwei Army and Hexiang Army became public, Yulong Mountain became a place where wind and clouds meet.

In early July, most of the Wuwei army guarded the general's mansion and ordered Chai Teng and others to rectify the defense at the northern foot of Yulong Mountain, and the construction of the Huanglongyuan defense fortress was a top priority.

After Chen Hai and the others followed Li Xianghai and took over the 1,000 soldiers and 2,000 people of the Yulong Mansion Army, they drove directly along the rugged stone gorge to Huanglongyuan, which was 500 miles away.

Fearing bloody retribution from the Wuwei army, the rebels also hastily withdrew from Huanglongyuan, discarding tens of thousands of corpses inside and outside the Shuangfeng Stone Village, but the armor and weapons were taken away. It was a very hot summer, and the mountains near Huanglongyuan were sparsely wooded, and the corpses were rotting badly, and the air was full of foul smell.

In order to prevent the plague from spreading, Chen Hai and his first thing to do was to spend two days of work cutting down timber and burning the corpses, and then free up their hands to clean up the dilapidated Shuangfeng Stone Village, while hundreds of thousands of displaced people retreated into the Yulong Mountain with the rebels, mainly concentrating on the river beach of Huanglongyuan and camping, leaving behind a large number of messy and simple shacks.

It was only at this time that Chen Hai had the opportunity to really see this mountain lake where the Yellow Dragon was born in ancient times.

In addition to the basin terrain surrounded by mountains and mountains that can collect rainwater, there is also a spiritual spring at the bottom of Huanglongyuan Lake to give water out.

It was also this spiritual spring that ensured that Huang Longyuan did not completely dry up in the great drought that lasted for several years, making a faint aura shrouded in the vicinity of Huang Longyuan.

Huanglongyuan as a small water source in the depths of Yulong Mountain, even after several years of drought, the water area has shrunk by seven or eighty percent, but there are still thousands of acres of water surface, the deepest part is hundreds of meters deep, and there is a large spiritual spring gushing, it is a rare good land in Yulong Mountain.

It's just that Huanglongyuan is located near the watershed of the two towns of Hexiang and Wuwei, and the place is extremely sensitive, and no one of the two families occupied this good place in advance, so at this time, Wuwei Jun was no longer polite.

Shuangfeng Stone Village is located in the north of Huanglongyuan, and the general Chai Teng of the Duwu Captain decided to build a sentry in the southern mountain range of Huanglongyuan to the sea.

Two or three hundred miles further south, it is the jurisdiction of Lanchuan County governed by Hexiang Military Town, the terrain is relatively gentle, and the sentry base is built in the south of Huanglongyuan, which can overlook the border of Lanchuan County.

Li Xianghai led the main force to sit in the Shuangfeng Stone Village, in addition to repairing the Shuangfeng Stone Village, but also to requisition more people from the Yulong Mansion to dig the plank road between the Shuangfeng Stone Village and the Chenqiao Village.

Shixia is twisted in the Yulong Mountain, the distance is extremely long, and it is extremely narrow, it can only be used for foot soldiers to pass, it is necessary to open up a new passage, in addition to the passage of cars and horses, it is necessary to greatly shorten the distance connecting Chenqiao Village to less than two hundred miles.

At the same time, Li Xianghai also ordered Li Hu to lead Chen Hai, Shen Kun, and Ge Tong to three teams of warriors and a thousand people's husbands to station in the mountains south of Huanglongyuan, and choose an abandoned cottage to be transformed into a strong sentry base.

Although Li Xianghai did not win the title of Marquis of the Pavilion of the Li Clan, he was the only strong man in the Li Clan who had stepped into the Ming Realm, and his status was not under the Sect Master of the Li Clan, so he transferred a group of elite disciples such as Li Hu and Li Yulin to assist him in governing the army and garrisoning Huanglongyuan.

Li Hu and Li Yulin both have cultivation in the middle stage of the Spirit Clearing Realm, and their status in the army is naturally higher than that of Chen Hai and them.

The Huanglongyuan garrison can be expanded to 2,000 soldiers, but even if it is the 1,000 soldiers who take over the Yulongfu army, most of them do not have the foundation of martial arts cultivation, far from being elite, and require arduous training.

Chen Hai didn't want to delay his cultivation, and besides, he was not very familiar with trivial military exercises, so he transferred Zhao Shan from Mengyi to help him train his martial arts......

Chen Hai This is the leader of the sect's children, Li Xianghai and Li Hu naturally don't care, if Chen Hai can transfer more elite veterans from the Chen clan, it will not affect their status, and it can greatly strengthen the combat power of the garrison, why not?

****************************

Chen Hai, as the military attache at the lowest level, did not know the specific progress of the negotiations between the Dadu Protector General's Mansion and the imperial court center and the Hexiang Army, but in mid-September, the Hexiang Army directly set up a large Yanchuan battalion in Yanchuan Prefecture, south of Yulong Mountain, to formally absorb the hundreds of thousands of rebellious people who had surrendered.

It can be seen that the two giants in the northwest of the Great Yan Empire, under the mediation of the imperial court, are not happy to talk.

In response to the measures of the Hexiang Army, the Dadu Protector General's Office issued three new orders in late September.

The first is to set up a county in Xinqiaozhai and move the Yulong Mansion to Xinqiao County in the south; the second is to formally set up a new Yulong camp at the same level as the Weijiang Camp and the Tieliu Battalion, and promote Chai Teng to serve as the deputy envoy of the Yulong Battalion, temporarily take charge of the Yulong Battalion, and also know the Yulong Mansion; and in the future, the Dadu Protector General's Mansion will also transfer more elite soldiers from various departments to supplement the Yulong Battalion; and the third is to order Zhao Ruhui, Zhang Huaiyu, and others to set up the Yulongshan Huanglongyuan Taoist Academy in Huanglongyuan, Yulong Mountain......

Everything was as Chen Hai expected, and the time was right for the Jade Dragon Mountain to meet the storm.

At the northern foot of Yulong Mountain, the Wuwei Army set up a new Yulong camp, expanded its armaments on a large scale, added new counties, and set up the Huanglongyuan Taoist Academy, which was directly under the command of the Inner Gate of the Seven Peaks of the Taiwei Sect.

No one thought in advance that the Taiwei Sect, which only wanted a quick victory, would lose so badly in the battle of the Jade Dragon Mountain, and two elders of the Ming Realm Realm, more than 50 inner disciples, and more than 700 disciples of the Dao Soldiers died in this battle, and Huang Longyuan was killed......

The situation in Jade Dragon Mountain suddenly became tense again.

Chen Hai, Shen Kun, and Ge Tong, under the command of Li Hu, took care of a thousand people, entered the mountains south of Huanglongyuan, and chose an abandoned cottage as a garrison for transformation.

This cottage also happens to be built in the canyon between the two mountain peaks, facing the north and south of the Shuangfeng Stone Village, and controlling the passage into Huanglongyuan, so in the official military documents, these two stone villages are called Huanglongyuan South Tianmen Village and Huanglongyuan North Tianmen Village.

Nantianmen Village is long and narrow from north to south, short and narrow from east to west, covering an area of only forty or fifty acres, which is not much bigger than Chen Hai's Medicine Master Garden on the main peak at the eastern foot of Tieliuling.

There were originally more than 100 dilapidated shacks in the village, in addition to sorting out six rows of military houses and converting the abandoned stone hall ancestral hall into a garrison office, Chen Hai and his team also leveled an open space in front of the military house as a school ground for military drills.

Although the wall of Nantianmen Village is also built with stones, it is also quite steep to prevent bandits, but the wall is thin, the wall is twelve or thirteen meters high, only less than two meters thick, and the disciples of Xuanxiu in the middle and late stages of the Spirit Realm can easily collapse the wall after getting close.

Regardless of whether the sect would eventually set up a defensive array in Nantianmen Village, the Jade Dragon Camp demanded that the wall of Nantianmen Village should eventually be able to withstand the full force of the powerhouse in the early stage of the Mingqi Realm.

The craftsman transferred from the Jade Dragon Mansion suggested that another stone wall be built, and the middle should be filled with mortar.

In addition, Chen Hai and his colleagues were responsible for opening a road connecting the north and south Tianmen Village on the west bank of Huanglongyuan Mountain Lake.

By the end of September, after the Dadu Protector General's Mansion issued a new order, Chen Hai and the others had another task in Huanglongyuan, which was to build the palace needed for the Taoist courtyard in the mountains on both sides of Huanglongyuan, as well as the houses and courtyards for the Taoist disciples to live in after they moved in......

In addition to the Huanglongyuan Shuangzhai, the Yulong Camp also has to build eight fortresses in the mountains south of Huanglongyuan, so as to control the entire Yulong Mountain in a preemptive manner, and look down on the Yanchuan Mansion in the north of Lanchuan County with a condescending attitude.

To this end, in addition to the newly expanded 30,000 new troops, Chai Teng also requisitioned 150,000 people from Yulong and other prefectures and counties to enter Yulong Mountain many times. Yulong Mountain, which stretches for more than 1,000 miles and lies between the two towns of Wuwei and Hexiang, suddenly became a large construction site.
