Chapter 165: One Month Later!
Time flies.
It's November.
It has been a month since the battle of the Iron Arm Monkey Mountain.
Pengsan-gun.
Pengshan Castle.
Yang Xiong discussed military and political affairs with the elders of the Government Council and the Military Affairs Yuan.
"As of yesterday, six large cities and seven small cities in the entire territory of Anhua County have all been conquered. The city guards settled in an orderly manner, and the situation in the city soon stabilized. However, outside the city and in the mountains, there are still many remnants of Anhua County, who have turned into bandits and bandits, or wandered, or camped and built villages, and are still resisting stubbornly. It is difficult to sweep the city guards alone, so I suggest that the first and third divisions of the Bloody Clothes Army be stationed in Anhua County, which is conducive to eliminating bandits as soon as possible, and can also guard against the Spring Silkworm Gate. β
Pei Zhiyong, the elder of the Military Affairs Yuan's Military Affairs Department, was the first to speak.
In the Taixu Sword Sect, the Military Affairs Institute was in charge of the military affairs of one county, and now it has expanded to two counties.
Among them, the 'Military Selection Division' is in charge of examining the grades, selection, promotion, and meritorious rewards of military attachΓ©s, and also examines the dangers and important points in various places, and respectively establishes positions such as camping and flooding, and has considerable power.
As the elder in charge of the Wuxuan Division, Pei Zhiyong's status, including power, is above the ordinary inspector elders of the government affairs hall like Wang Ji.
is also qualified to participate in the decision-making and military affairs of the Taixu Sword Sect.
"What Elder Pei said is extremely true."
"Although Anhua County has taken it, if the bandits are not eliminated every day, it will be a trouble. Only by stabilizing and digesting it as soon as possible can our Government Affairs Yuan carry out its work and completely turn Anhua County into its own use, rather than dragging it down. Only in this way can we have the strength to confront the Five Cloud Sect and the Spring Silkworm Sect. β
'Peng Xin', the elder of the Examination Department of the Government Council, echoed his words.
Stability in the territory.
Only the departments and bureaus of the Government Council can be carried out, otherwise it will be difficult for any government affairs to pass.
Over the years, the Taixu Sword Sect has vigorously developed industry and commerce, consolidated agriculture, and relied on the third level of the White Elephant City to obtain a large number of tariffs, making a lot of money and a rich treasury.
All this money and food was converted into troops and officials.
Originally, it was criticized that Pengshan County had too many troops and redundant officials. It wasn't until they took Anhua County this time that those people knew the intentions of the Taixu Sword Sect.
Officials and city guards were transferred from Pengshan County and settled in Anhua County.
Not only can the cities in Anhua County be quickly controlled as soon as possible, but Pengshan County also has no problem of lack of officials and difficulty in normal operation.
The remaining city guards in each city are also enough to protect a city and a peaceful side.
Quickly through the turbulent period, quickly into the stable period.
In this way, there will be fewer opportunities that the Five Cloud Sect and the Spring Silkworm Sect can find, and the Taixu Sword Sect will have enough time to consolidate its foundation.
"Speaking of the Five Cloud Sect and the Spring Silkworm Sect, there is no need to worry about it in a short time. They had just lost an elite in the Qinling Mountains not long ago, and after attacking Yulin County and Shuofang County respectively, they also needed time to digest it. β
"We have plenty of time to prepare."
Peng Xin added with a smile.
Hearing this, the elders who were still frowning a little about the situation in Anhua County also laughed.
More than a month.
The three major factions of the Taixu Sword Sect, the Wuyun Sect, and the Spring Silkworm Sect in Yuezhou have taken Anhua County, Yulin County, and Shuofang County respectively. Since then, among the fourteen counties of Yuezhou, only three major factions remain.
The thunderous offensive of the three factions shocked Yuezhou. Winning the whole county in just one month has made other forces unable to react.
It seemed that overnight, the situation in Yuezhou was turned upside down.
And in this mutation, all kinds of fierce news about the battle of the Iron Arm Monkey Mountain in the depths of the Qinling Mountains were also exposed-
The thirteen sects of the three factions did not agree with each other, and they fought for Zhu Guojiu, each of them suffered heavy casualties, and dozens of grandmasters fell.
'Gentleman's Sword' Chen Jichuan killed 'Full Moon Knife' Chai Yingrong, and when he fought with the Iron Arm Monkey King, he broke through on the spot and reached the realm of the Great Grandmaster, attracting the peerless demon beasts hidden in the Qinling Mountains to chase and kill, and fled in a hurry.
His whereabouts are unknown, and his life and death are unknown.
Then.
The monster beast ran rampant and the desire to kill was difficult to contain.
slaughtered more than 2,000 Young Wolf Army of the Five Cloud Sect, including more than a dozen Grandmaster masters in the camp.
slaughtered more than 2,000 Cangya troops in the Spring Silkworm Gate, including more than a dozen grandmasters in the camp.
These two factions suffered heavy losses.
β¦β¦
Among these major events, the most shocking thing for the Quartet was undoubtedly the breakthrough of the 'Gentleman's Sword' Chen Jichuan, who had only been in the limelight for ten years, to the realm of the Great Grandmaster.
And it was still a breakthrough in the Qinling Mountains, which led to the legendary peerless demon beast.
Time.
All parties are discussing and digging deeper, wanting to know the root of the 'gentleman's sword'.
It's a pity that no matter how they dig it, it can only go back to ten years ago. This person seems to have jumped out of thin air, and as soon as he appears, he is a grandmaster cultivator, and his swordsmanship is superb. In the next ten years, it was out of control, and he quickly won the tenth throne of "Heavenly List".
Even the Divine Machine Sect didn't know the deeper origin of this person.
Many people have great hopes for Chen Jichuan's breakthrough innate nature.
But I didn't expect Chen Jichuan's breakthrough to come so quickly and vigorously.
The name of 'Gentleman's Sword' Chen Jichuan was introduced to the ears of the great masters of the major sects in the seven states for the first time, and the great masters of scattered cultivation from all walks of life.
However, compared with Chen Jichuan's incident, what made the Taixu Sword Sect even happier was undoubtedly the tragic encounter between the Wuyun Sect and the Spring Silkworm Sect.
Even if these two major factions guide public opinion afterwards and aim the spearhead at the Taixu Sword Sect.
These elders can understand that too.
There's no way, who let the Five Cloud Sect and the Spring Silkworm Sect lose too much, but the Taixu Sword Sect left the Qinling Mountains with all the tails?
It's normal for the two factions to be angry.
Far from being annoyed, the Taixu Sword Sect was very willing to carry this black cauldron.
More than two thousand green wolf troops.
More than 2,000 Cangya troops.
Combined, it is equivalent to five thousand blood-clothed troops.
And the Taixu Sword Sect, even after the expansion of the Bloody Clothes Army ten years ago, there are only 12,000 people so far.
At this moment, the two major factions lost so many elites.
If they fight head-on, the Bloody Clothes Army will have to spend 5,000, 6,000 or even more lives to achieve this result.
Carrying a black pot can save thousands of elites, who wouldn't be happy?
Even such a black cauldron, they are willing to carry more and bigger!
Of course.
Chen Jichuan's identity was extremely secret, except for Sect Master Yang Xiong and a limited number of people, it was also known to the Great Grandmaster hidden in the Taixu Sword Sect.
None of them, the elders of the Military Affairs Yuan and the Government Affairs Yuan, don't know-
β¦β¦
"This black pot is not wronged."
After the meeting dispersed and the elders left, Yang Xiong shook his head and rushed to the back mountain worriedly.
Not much.
I came to Manjuan Cave.
That uncle was still dressed in gray, holding a book and reading it fascinated.
When Yang Xiong arrived, he said respectfully to the old man in gray: "Uncle Shi, I don't know if there is news of Wang Shan today?" β
Since returning to Pengshan City, Yang Xiong has come to inquire once a day.
This time, it was his idea to let Chen Jichuan enter the Iron Arm Monkey Mountain together.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity to let Chen Jichuan fight with more masters and fight with the Iron Arm Monkey King in the half-step realm, in the hope of gaining something and making progress.
So that the breakthrough is faster.
But who would have thought that this disciple's comprehension was too high and his progress was too great, and he would suddenly break through to the realm of the Great Grandmaster.
but out of thin air, many evils were born.
Now that he doesn't know life and death, Yang Xiong is both worried and remorseful.
I knew it was so.
It's better not to let him go, with this disciple's qualifications, sooner or later he will be able to break through, and it is better to be safe.
But it's too late to say anything now.
"Not yet."
"Don't be in a hurry."
The gray-clothed old man closed the book, raised his eyes to look at Yang Xiong, who was full of guilt, and said with a light smile: "Wang Shan, since he can deliberately lead the Storm Condor and the Bear Venerable to the garrison of the Blue Wolf Army and the Cangya Army, I think he is sure to get out." The two senior brothers, Nie and Bu, have already entered the Qinling Mountains to find them, and with their support, Wang is safe. β
Yang Xiong listened to the same comfort of the old man in gray, and it was really difficult to let go of his heart.
Qinling is dangerous.
Humans have more agreement with the Qinling Demon Beasts-
The demon beasts of the Qinling Void Realm are not allowed to step out of the Qinling Mountains, otherwise they will be besieged by the great masters of the human race. And in the same way, the great master of the human race is not allowed to set foot in the Qinling Mountains, once discovered, life and death are not mattered.
The two ancestors of Nie and Bu ventured into it, although there was a secret method to hide the traces, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not be discovered.
When the time comes, don't rescue Wang Shan, and then put yourself in.
The Taixu Sword Sect would never be able to withstand such a blow.
"The old man knows what you're worried about."
"But the two brothers are already old, and they don't have much time to live. And Wang Shan is only thirty-six years old, and he is already the great master of Baodan. Even if the lives of the two senior brothers are spared, as long as Wang Shan can be saved, it will be worth it! β
The gray-clothed old man had a rare look of excitement on his face.
In fact.
Why wasn't he worried?
But the personnel are exhausted, and the next thing can only be left to fate.
"Alright."
"Don't bother the old man in the future, I'll let you know if there's news."
The old man in gray waved his hand and ordered Yang Xiong to retreat, and he had nothing to disturb.
"Yes."
Yang Xiong responded in a muffled voice, came worriedly, and left worriedly.
β¦β¦
After Yang Xiong left.
The gray-clothed old man couldn't read the book anymore, stood up, paced back and forth in the Ten Thousand Scrolls Cave, and said with hatred on his lips: "This Yang Xiong, who is shrewd to death on weekdays, how can he commit such stupidity!" β
The old man gritted his teeth, eager to peel off Yang Xiong's skin.
That is, because Yang Xiong has been conscientious and hard working over the years, he has been restrained again and again, without anger or blame.
If this had put aside his temper in his early years, he would have taken a big whip a long time ago.
The thirty-six-year-old "Heavenly List" is tenth!
A thirty-six-year-old top grandmaster!
How could you come up with the idea of letting him go to Qinling to take risks?!
There are more places to practice, so I have to go to Qinling?!
"Lao Tzu is also a ghost, and he will agree if he is confused!" The old man in gray also wanted to slap his two big mouths.
In the past month, he has only worried more about Wang Shan than Yang Xiong, not less than Yang Xiong.
But he is self-conscious of his seniority and identity, and he is unwilling to show himself in front of others. When there is no one, I will vent in this ten thousand scroll holes.
Otherwise, sooner or later it will be suffocated.
He was scolding angrily.
Suddenly.
The old man in gray turned his head, and at a glance saw that Yang Xiong, who had just left, was back again, standing in the distance with an embarrassed face, neither entering nor leaving.
The gray-clothed old man's face turned red, like a fire, he was ashamed, annoyed and angry, and shouted angrily: "Don't bother Lao Tzu again, do you Yang Xiong have no ears or no brains?!" β
"Uncle Shi."
Yang Xiong's expression froze, and he sneered at the young man in Tsing Yi on the side: "Senior Uncle Qin has always been gentle, and it is rare to do this. β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The young man looked at the old man in gray, and it happened that the old man also looked at him, and the old man and the young man looked at each other, and for a while, the awkward atmosphere in the Wanjuan Cave suddenly became even more embarrassing.
