Chapter 324: Under the Western Boundary (Asking for Recommendation and Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Near the end of autumn, a sudden blizzard turned the entire area around this place for thousands of miles to resist and dyed a frosty white color.
Ren Bo led a group of people and galloped on this snowy field. Riding a good fourth-order wind riding horse, his body is also wrapped in a sixth-order fire bear skin. Therefore, under the rapid gallop, there is no sense of bumps. In the cold, I also feel that my body is warm.
It's just that after five consecutive nights of galloping, even with his Xuanwu Grandmaster's cultivation, he couldn't stand it a little and felt a little tired.
And most of the reason why he suffered such suffering was because of his king.
Since Zong Shou returned with more than 1,000 ships that were fully loaded, he did not return to Qiantianshan City after landing in Hongcheng. With Zongyuan and a few people, he galloped all the way south, and it only took a little time and a half to reach the army at the border of the Western Boundary City.
Directly enter the mastery and control all the military forces in Xiyun Province. The next few rì are simply a legend.
With 500,000 horses at the border, plus 300,000 vassals gathered from the surroundings. Directly swept the momentum of the phantom dragon and completely flattened it. Fifth, he commanded 150,000 elite cavalry to go first, and directly crashed into the Tianfang Province and Xiping Province, where Taoyun City's power was deep-rooted. Five battles and five victories, the Taoyun City, together with its vassal cities, and nearly three million troops, were all scattered and fragmented. And with the momentum of the wind and clouds, these two provinces, nearly 250 city-states, were either forced to surrender or destroyed. Wherever the soldiers pointed, almost no one could reach it, and they were invincible.
With a frantic offensive, it only took a mere nineteen rì time to wipe out half of the three provinces of Taoyun City!
Ren Bo was going to report on the recent government affairs, as well as the harvest statistics of this cloud sea hunt, and the profit sharing with the clans in the city.
The initial destination was Haiyu, a large city in Xiping Province. At the time of departure, he received the news that Zong Shou was commanding the army and horses, attacking the last stronghold of Taoyun City in Xiping Province.
As a result, after arriving at the two nights, they found that the place had been conquered long before the first rì. In other words, Zong Shou only used the 40,000 cavalry troops that were with him at that time, plus the forcibly recruited all the way, "or should it be said that the 400,000 troops of the vassal cities that had just taken refuge in the vicinity of the four hundred thousand were brought in to break through this famous big city." And when calculating, it only uses two rì. I really don't know how he, the king, did it.
When Ren Bo inquired about where Zong Shou was at the moment, he knew that Zong Shou had left in a hurry before the city of the sea was broken. After leaving Chai Yuan and Lingfa Kong in charge, they turned to the north, and the direction was Xiyun Province.
made him make a big detour and ran more than 10,000 miles in vain.
But in my heart, I didn't feel annoyed, but a little happy. Stepping on the land of other countries and looking at the road, those scattered generals of the cities only felt that they were filled with emotion in their hearts.
It took the first monarch a whole year and a half to fail to conquer the two provinces of Tianfang Xiping. After the monarch succeeded to the throne, it only took a few months to merge it into the territory of Qiantian Mountain City.
There are people who have been succeeded by the king, and they can be gratified.
After galloping for a moment, Ren Bo's eyelids jumped slightly, and he saw dozens of figures standing in the snow not far away. They all stood tall in the cold wind, like steel sculptures, and they didn't move.
Without getting closer, Ren Bo felt that the figure of the leader was extremely familiar. It's just that the qi machine is different from his impression. The body stands upright like a javelin, and it will be magnificent, full of murderous aura.
"Tiger Plains?"
Ren Bo looked stunned, he was pampered in the past, and he was a child. seems to be old, but in fact, when did the guy who was ruined on the outside become like this?
rode forward and stood still in front of Hu Zhongyuan, and Ren Bo realized that this guy was really different. Although his face was obviously tired, his back was still straight, and his tiger eyes were full of sharpness.
"Looking at your situation, could it be that the realm is about to break through?"
Hu Zhongyuan smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "My old man always says that I am useless, but my Tiger Zhongyuan broke through the age of Xuanwu Sect, but it is seven years earlier than him!
Speaking of this, Hu Zhongyuan remembered the matter: "In the army, he commanded the army, and he couldn't pull away, so he ordered me to pick up the prime minister"
Ren Bo bowed his head slightly, and galloped side by side with Hu Zhongyuan. The cheers of the army in the distance could be faintly heard here, and I couldn't help but wonder slightly: "What's going on over there?"
"I just finished assembling this morning, and the prime minister is here, just in time to watch a good show!"
Hu Zhongyuan was excited again when he heard this, and his eyebrows flew and he explained: "After the first two monarchs returned, they commanded the army and wiped out more than ten rebel cities. This western boundary city is the last one. The king waited for two years, gathered 200,000 people here, and invited all the lords of the surrounding cities and states. plus the vassal horses, there are 600,000 people"
Speaking of this, he added another sentence for fear that Ren Bo would misunderstand: "Just the western boundary, I can fight 350,000 people in the Tianshan Mountains." It's just that the king said that he wanted to use this western city to establish authority. What is it called, kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, let these people with two thoughts look at the military might of my Qiantian Mountain, and only then will it be delayed until now!"
In this era, there is no such thing as killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, so although Hu Zhongyuan is barely literate, he does not understand this word.
Ren Bo smiled, knowing the meaning of Zongshou.
He knew that at the beginning, Zongshou didn't care about all the rebels in the rear. Taking advantage of the death of Yue Guanyun and the undeciding of the hearts of Taoyun City, he led dozens of infantry and cavalry troops to brazenly attack the territory of Phantom Dragon Province.
After that, because the progress was too fast, the foot soldiers were basically not rooted. Finally, when it entered the remaining two provinces, only 150,000 cavalry remained.
After that, they divided their troops one after another and took the cities. As a result, the 800,000 soldiers were finally scattered in fragments and scattered among the vast areas of the three provinces.
Later, when the Zong Shou returned, only about 50 horsemen followed. The military horses that conquered the more than ten rebel cities should have been hundreds of thousands of elites who had followed the fleet and went hunting under the sea of clouds. It was almost non-stop, but in the end, he only had time to participate in the sweep and take these rebels out of anger.
It is not easy for Zong Shou to gather 200,000 Qiantian soldiers in this vicinity within two rì.
In the middle of it, the outline of a large city in the distance appeared in his field of vision. As he galloped under his crotch, it became clearer and clearer.
It was a great city thirty zhang high, seven miles long, and six miles wide. The surroundings are covered in silver, but here, there is a moxibustion of people.
I don't know how many spirit masters have used to make no snow fall on the dozens of miles here.
According to Hu Zhongyuan, there are already 600,000 horsemen who have surrounded this city called the Western Boundary.
And at a glance, it is indeed murderous. Rows of neat armor soldiers lined up on the plains surrounding the city. There were also many cavalry troops, mixed in. Most of them were arranged on the nearby hills, and it seemed that they also felt the atmosphere of the coming of the great array, and those war horses were all restless and constantly stomped on the ground with their hooves, making bursts of neighing.
Under the leadership of Hu Zhongyuan, Ren Bo passed through the barracks, and arrived at the location of the Chinese army in a short time.
I vaguely found that these Heavenly Soldiers would be a little different from the past. Since Zong Weiran's death, the fighting spirit that has gradually dissipated has completely returned. It is still the iron army that swallows thousands of miles like a tiger, is domineering, and is always invincible!
This discovery surprised him even more than the fact that he was defending the sect and seizing three provinces in a row.
However, when resisting the front of the Chinese army, Ren Bo was angry again. I saw a luxury chariot pulled by eighteen pure white horses, parked on a hill.
The decoration of this car is incomparably luxurious. It's all made of the finest purple and red dragon gold, and it's dotted with jewels. The white gauze snow tents hanging on all sides are also very particular. It is made of 300-year-old silk and woven to keep it warm and resist arrows.
And Zong Shou is lying in it at this moment. There were also two people beside him, both of whom were like flowers and jade, and they knelt beside Zong Shou tamely. By the way, on top of the soft couch, there is also a piece of animal skin.
Ren Bo's eyes remained, and he could see that this skin seemed to have been taken from a seventh-order spirit beast above those cloud ships.
At this moment, even he is slightly warm-eyed towards this sect guard. Xiangmu beauty, it's really hateful.
I wanted to reprimand, but when I got to the side of the chariot, Ren Bo turned to a wry smile again: "Your Majesty, isn't this also a means for you to promote extravagance and stimulate consumption?"
Zong Shou was originally staring at the Western Boundary City, but when he heard the words at this moment, he smiled and motioned for Ren Bo to get into the lane: "This is called sales." Didn't I open a wrought iron shop a while ago? I recruited dozens of spirit forging masters, but instead of creating a good weapon, I concocted such a car for me. Now rì is just showing off in front of them, and it will be easy to sell such a car in the future. Those guys, I'm afraid that they are worried about money and have nowhere to spend it."
Ren Bo was stunned, and wondered if this was the reason? But in my heart, I still feel that it is unacceptable. He knew that Zong Shou would not listen to persuasion, and he didn't bother to speak at the moment, so he boarded this luxurious chariot.
As soon as Fang stepped in, he felt that this car was indeed a little different. Not only the constant temperature is like spring, but also calms the mind. In an instant, the spirit became calm and gentle.
couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and looked at Zong Shou carefully: "This car, could it be that it is specially designed for spirit masters?"
Zong Shou smiled but did not answer, the spirit array in this chariot is indeed a classic design after three thousand years. It's enough for his new forge to last for a while.
He temporarily handed over this shop to Weak Water and Lian Fan to take care of. It doesn't matter if you make money or not, as long as you can cultivate enough spirit forging masters, you won't lose money.
Ren Bo was only slightly surprised, so he didn't care, and instead looked at the row of figures not far away. It is the lord of the cities and kingdoms who has been gathered here by the sect guards! )
