"Subordinate Gu Hai, see the city lord." In Lanyang City, in the city lord's mansion, Gu Hai arched his hand to Li Xuan with some bitterness.

Although there were already some predictions and preparations in his heart, but when Li Xuan brought a large number of people into Lanyang City, including many of the original Lanyang City Protectors, Gu Hai still had an unspeakable loss in his heart, although the character of the Shura Demon King was not very good, but after all, Gu Hai had followed the Shura Demon King for thousands of years, since the Shura Demon King was only a first-level Demon King, Gu Hai followed the Shura Demon King, and now he suddenly heard the news of the death of the Shura Demon King, and there was still a little bad feeling in his heart.

"Mr. Guhai doesn't need to be polite." With a wave of his hand, Li Xuan nodded, Lanyang City is remote, yes, but the scale is not small, although there are no masters, but there are many mortal monks, the huge Lanyang City, with a population of one million, the area of the city alone is hundreds of square miles, such a large city, under the management of the ancient sea, it is well organized, and the security is even better than many cities with rich resources and more advanced demon king masters, this ancient sea is undoubtedly a talent who is good at management, and Da Yan has always attached great importance to talents.

Gu Hai nodded and stepped aside, he knew that now he was just a general, and on today's celebration occasion, letting himself be included in the list was just a goodwill signal that the other party valued him, basically, it had little to do with him.

"Your Majesty, this battle is the first battle of my Dragon Court Guard, in addition to the Shura Demon King who was killed by General Lu Bu, most of the 20,000 city guards in Lanyang City died in the Four Elephants Life and Destruction Array, only a small number surrendered to our army, most of them are masters of the Tribulation Period and the Void Underworld Period, 613 people, including 28 Heavenly Demon Level Masters, 56 Mahayana Stage Masters, and 163 Tribulation Period Masters. The remaining 366 were all Void Immortal monks. Li Jing reported the battle in detail and simply.

The guards of Lanyang City are mostly Yuanying-level monks, and under the strangulation of the Four Elephants Life and Annihilation Array composed of 100,000 Dragon Court guards, it is difficult for Yuan-infant monks to survive at all, even if they are higher-level cave void-level monks. He also suffered casualties in this battle, and the Heavenly Demon and the masters of the Mahayana period were the main objects of care of the generals of all parties, and they were constantly killed by the Great Yan General in the great array, but it was the monks of the Tribulation Period and the Empty Netherworld Period who were lucky to survive the most in this battle.

"Organize these people into a separate battalion, don't name them for the time being, and make a decision after Lu Bu and the five people leave the customs!" Li Xuan nodded, the cultivation of this batch of descended troops. Generally higher than the Dragon Court Guards, if these people are included in the Dragon Court Guards, in terms of strength, they are all general-level positions, and letting a group of soldiers be generals will definitely make the soldiers discordant, and among these people, there is no talent to command the troops. In order to ensure the independence of the Dragon Court guards, Li Xuan could only temporarily organize these tall and thin guards into an army.

As for the commander of this detachment. Li Xuan was going to choose one of Lu Bu's five people to be the commander of this army, and as for who would be in charge, he could only wait for the five to leave the customs before making a decision.

In this battle, Lu Bu challenged the Shura Demon King, and finally won with momentum, and at the same time had a new understanding of the God of War Technique, after the battle was over. immediately asked Li Xuan for instructions on retreat, preparing to perfect the God of War technique, and Zhao Yun, Yue Fei, Kou Zhong and Song Que were obviously also stimulated by Lu Bu, and in order to prevent Lu Bu from being presence-oriented, they all asked Li Xuan for retreat. If you don't create your own war witch trick, you won't go out.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Li Jing nodded and said, "But the minister thinks that for the time being, General Li Shan can temporarily serve as the commander of this army." ”

In this battle, Li Shan shined, with the cultivation of the Mahayana period, he continuously killed high-level Heavenly Demon-level masters, among this group of former Blue Yang City guards, he had a great reputation for murder, although his cultivation was not as good as those Heavenly Demons, but it was enough to deter this group of people.

"Exactly." Li Xuan looked at Li Shan with a smile, nodded and said, the first of the four generals who followed him in the past, now it is time to take charge alone.

"What are the casualties of my Dragon Court guards in this battle?" Li Xuan's tone changed, and he said with a bit of a low voice.

Li Jing also said a little bitterly when he heard this: "Among the guards of Lanyang City, there are many crazy people, seeing that they are invincible, they blow up their own Yuanying, and the cultivation of my Longting Guard's guards is still shallow, especially the reserve army is basically dominated by Jindan monks, in this battle, there are three hundred and seven casualties, including eighteen regular soldiers. ”

Below, Gu Hai couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, facing the 20,000 Lanyang City guards who had cultivated to a higher level, and suffered casualties of eighteen Yuan Infant Stage and two hundred and eighty-nine Jin Dan Stage, could this be regarded as a casualty?

"For the burial of the fallen soldiers, I will notify the Dragon Court to treat the families of the fallen well, and the families of the dead will be exempted from all taxes for a hundred years, and at the same time, the families of the fallen can enjoy the preferential policies of my Dayan." Li Xuan nodded, the general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years, that is, he entered the battlefield, casualties were inevitable, especially now that Dayan was still in a weak state, Li Xuan could only try his best to minimize this casualty, and in addition, he could only give preferential treatment to the families of the dead.

Gu Hai suddenly had a strange feeling, except for the people of the Black Dragon Palace, the sad look on the face of that famous general did not seem to be fake.

Hundreds of low-level monks, as for it? He couldn't understand the meaning behind this pain, these 100,000 Dragon Court guards were not only the strongest soldiers and horses of Great Yan, but also, almost all of these soldiers and horses were brought out by the generals of Great Yan, and the friendship of robes and Ze, in this vast and boundless world of immortals and demons, was indeed incomprehensible, but in Gu Hai's heart, for some reason, there was a faint warmth and peace of mind.

"Your Majesty, Blue Sun City has been down, do we start the next step?" Among the generals, Cheng Zhijie and several warlike generals from the majestic sea were eager to try.

"There's no hurry." Li Xuan shook his head with a smile and looked at Gu Haidao: "Mr. Gu Hai, could you please explain the situation of the recent cities around Lanyang City, including the cultivation of the city master, the military strength, and the city protection array. ”

"Yes." Gu Hai nodded, these are not secrets, as long as you have a heart, it is easy to be able to detect, immediately took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Lanyang City is surrounded by the sea on three sides, on the opposite side of the sea, about a million miles apart, it is a demon city, called Cancer City, the city lord Cancer Demon King, the body is a giant crab, the strength is similar to that of the Shura Demon King before the breakthrough, the third-level demon king, but because the body is not a divine beast, it is also a top-level demon beast, and its combat power is comparable to that of a sixth-level demon king, and the strength of Cancer City is not much different from my Lanyang City." ”

"In addition, there is a demon city in the east and south of my Blue Sun City, and they are about two million miles apart. One is Chiyan City, the other is Black Stone City, although they are both Demon Realm Cities, but these two cities have several medium-sized Yuan Spirit Stone veins, which are considered to be in the Demon Realm City. The city with rich resources, the city lord is one of the one hundred and eight demon kings under the Blue Demon Emperor, all of whom are seventh-level demon kings, and at the same time, among the two cities, in addition to the city lord, there are other demon king-level masters, although they are not included in the list of the one hundred and eight strongest demon kings, but only on cultivation, not under the Shura Demon King. ”

Everyone heard the news. A solemn look flashed in his eyes, Li Jing looked at Gu Hai, arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask Mr. Gu Hai, how is the armament in these two cities?" ”

Gu Hai thought for a while and said, "Red Flame City and Black Rock City, each city has 100,000 city guards, and the most ordinary soldiers are also cultivating in the Cave Void Realm. The team rate can only be served in the Tribulation Realm, and the captain of the guard needs to be in the Mahayana period or a low-level Heavenly Demon. And the top ten city guards are all qualified to serve as ninth-level heavenly demons, and the qualifications of the city guards are not fixed, a competition will be held every ten years, only in the competition, the strongest ten heavenly demons, are qualified to serve as the new city guards. ”

Everyone heard the news. I couldn't help but gasp, whether it was military appearance or single strength, these two Demon Realm Cities were more than one grade higher than Lanyang City.

Looking at the shocked crowd, Li Xuan said slowly: "Only by knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can you win all battles." I hope that all the generals can engrave this sentence in their hearts, one of your decisions is not only related to their own safety, but also to the lives of thousands of soldiers, in being generals, are the pillars of my Great Yan, what you shoulder, in addition to the honor of my Great Yan, but also the expectations of the thousands of soldiers who have pinned their lives on you, one will be incompetent, exhausting the three armies, I only hope that the generals can think about these soldiers before making every decision in the future. ”

Cheng Zhijie and the others couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when they heard this, if it was really as they said, they would fight so recklessly, Cancer City would be fine, but that Red Flame City and Black Rock City, with the current military strength of Great Yan, even if every soldier had the strength to challenge beyond the level, they would suffer heavy losses.

"Alright." Li Xuan clapped his hands and said: "I just sounded a wake-up call to the generals, although the cultivation of my Great Yan soldiers is not high, but the potential is endless, what we lack is only the precipitation of time, and what we lack the most now is time, the generals don't have to be discouraged, although the cultivation of the Great Yan soldiers is low now, but ten years later, 100,000 Dragon Court guards will shock the Wild Continent!" ”

"Yes!" The crowd will make the fighting spirit in the eyes burn.

"Yanmo." Looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty who had rekindled their fighting spirit, Li Xuan smiled slightly, looked at Yan Mo and said: "You established the Black Dragon Palace to lurk in Lanyang City for twenty slaughters, and this battle has won Lanyang City in one fell swoop, which can be said to be a great achievement, but this credit is not enough to help you advance your bloodline, I will give you two choices now." ”

"Your Majesty, please." A look of disappointment flashed in Yanmo's eyes, and he arched his hand.

"For this time to seize the city, I can give you a high-grade immortal weapon as a reward, and I can also let you enter the secret realm of the dragon clan again and comprehend the dragon clan's exercises." Li Xuan looked at Yan Mo Dao with a smile.

Yan Mo's heart moved, whether it was a high-grade immortal weapon or a dragon clan secret realm, it was enough to match the merits he had made this time, after all, the reason why he was able to successfully capture the city was mostly because the army of Lanyang City was led out of the city by Li Xuan, so he could take the city lord seal so easily, but no matter what reward Yan Mo wanted, it was not what Yan Mo wanted the most.

Gritting his teeth, Yan Mo bowed down and said, "Yan Mo is brave, I want to ask Your Majesty another choice." ”

Li Xuan nodded with a smile and said: "As for the other option, Lanyang City occupies, my Dayan will also officially gain a foothold in this immortal and demon world, the Great Yan Meritorious List will be launched, all my Great Yan soldiers and officials, every time they make meritorious deeds, there will be special people according to the different meritorious deeds, recorded on the meritorious list in the form of numbers, you can accumulate the meritorious deeds made this time, when your meritorious deeds are enough, and you are willing to use this meritorious service in exchange for the qualification to promote the bloodline, I will personally promote the bloodline for you." ”

After Li Xuan finished speaking, he looked at the others again: "It's not just the bloodline, Da Yan is hired by the official position, all of them are based on merit, immortal weapons, pills, treasures, and god positions, as long as there is enough merit, they can all be exchanged for merit, but the official title, in addition to merit, also has the ability to match." ”

When Yan Mo heard this, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, he took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and bowed down and said, "The minister chooses to accumulate meritorious deeds for future use." ”

"Okay." Li Xuan nodded: "Later, there will be a special person to list all the matters that should be listed, and you can refer to them." ”

These words are mainly said to be heard by the Black Dragon Palace and the surrendered Blue Yang City guards, within the Great Yan, the meritorious system has already begun to be implemented, and it is extended to the whole people, not just limited to the soldiers of the Great Yan, but in the fairy and demon world, there is only one city now, and it is not yet time to promote it to the whole people.

Yanmo retreated, but the next was the nine Dillon, the nine brothers hesitated, but decided to accumulate meritorious service for the time being, and after the meritorious service system was proposed, it was not too late to choose.

"You Qian, Yan Rui." After a series of rewards, the Great Yan soldiers were rewarded, and in the end, only You Qian and Yan Rui were left as the two Black Dragon Palace protectors.

"The minister is here." A flash of excitement flashed in the eyes of the two women, and they took a step forward and bowed.

"You Qian, you have refined this city lord, from today on, you are the city lord of Lanyang City, in charge of the politics and people's livelihood of Lanyang City." Li Xuan looked at You Qiandao.

"This ......" You Qian was stunned at first, but then she was flustered, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "How can You Qian be virtuous, how can he be qualified to enjoy the position of city lord?" ”

Li Xuan smiled and said proudly: "Then what kind of virtue and ability does Lanyang City have, worthy of my Great Yan Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs?" ”

"This ......" You Qian couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and carefully glanced at the surrounding Great Yan Wenwu, but saw that all the Dayan Wenwu had a little disdain on their faces, and suddenly felt a little dazed in her heart.

"Let you refine, you have your own reason, in the past, you followed Lingqi across the mortal world, although you were a little nonsense, but you also made some contributions, and you were the master of a cave, and the Silver Claw Cave Mansion in charge was also well organized, and had some management experience, so, I decided to give you a chance to make you the lord of a city, however, in the next ten years, you will only be in charge of the city lord seal, and you are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Lanyang City without authorization, Lanyang City should be managed by Du Rumei, and you will follow Du Rumei's side in the past ten years, learn and observe, Ten years later, if Du Rumei thinks that you are unworthy of the position of city lord, I will still remove you. Li Xuan said.

When Gu Hai heard this, he glanced at Du Rumei beside him suspiciously, although he only cultivated in the Yuan Infant Period, it made Gu Hai feel like he couldn't see through, not only Du Rumei, but there were at least five people in this hall, which made him feel similar.

"Your body is a silver-clawed octopus, although it is rare, but it is not a high-level spirit beast, it is difficult to deter the Quartet, today, I will advance a part of your merits to help you advance your bloodline, but this merit must be made up in the future!" Looking at You Qian, Li Xuan said indifferently.

"Yes." A flash of excitement flashed in You Qian's eyes, and she quickly knelt on the ground, with a hint of tremor in her voice.

"Yan Rui is also here, the meritorious deeds you have made this time are enough for you to advance to the next divine beast." With Li Xuan's words, two dragon qi fell into the two women's bodies. (To be continued......)
