"Hey, it's ugly. ”

Xuanyuan Huan had an excited smile on her little face that was still clean because she was protected by the helmet, and she sat down next to Ye Chen and looked at him: "Master, I saw you move just now, and I thought you were awake, so this is what you called, you don't blame me, right?"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head, strange, how not to blame, a rare good dream was shattered.

But dreams are just dreams after all, and they can't be taken seriously, after all, they still have to face the reality and improve their strength so that they can return to their hometown as soon as possible.

"How's the war?" Ye Chen could actually know the answer from Xuanyuan Huan's excited little face. But he still asked, he wanted to know a little more specific.

"The Wutu people withdrew...... No! The Utu people retreated! I took 10,000 infantry out of the city according to your orders! Sure enough, the Utu people could not even organize a resistance, and they were defeated in an instant! 200,000 troops and 100,000 auxiliaries retreated together, and the scene was shocking!"

Ye Chen was not surprised at all, the state of the Wutu tribe at that time, it was normal for the retreat to collapse. Hell if they can turn the tide and reorganize a counterattack.

Unless Chongshan goes crazy and sends the Dark Cloud Army out again, but that possibility is too small. Chongshan would not have known that he was no longer able to activate the power of the heart world again.

In his opinion, eighty percent will feel crazy and unacceptable, and at the same time extremely frightened.

Ye Chen was not wrong, the current Chongshan was urging his mount to rush for his life in the vast Gobi sky.

Beside him were the 1,500 Dark Cloud Army that had been completely gathered.

He was afraid, he was really afraid. Ever since he saw his two hundred Dark Cloud Army turn into nothingness in an instant like a prank, he was completely afraid.

What kind of opponent is the other side?

No, no, no! Even if it is a true martial powerhouse, it is absolutely, absolutely~~! It is impossible to kill the two hundred Dark Cloud Army in an instant! Especially when no one even sees it!

So, if it's not a true martial arts powerhouse, what could it be? Is there an existence on this continent that is even more powerful than the true martial realm?

After all, Chongshan is a hegemon, and he knows many things that ordinary people don't know.

Yes!

He knew that there was a terrifying existence on this continent that surpassed the true martial level and reached the legendary level!

But that kind of existence only appears in legends, and if you really want to say that anyone has seen it, I'm afraid you can't find it.

But the fact now is that the enemy he is attacking and facing is very likely to be that kind of existence! And the number may not be one!

Run! Run!

Although Chongshan is arrogant and domineering, he is neither stupid nor crazy! To be the enemy of such an opponent is not called courage, but can only be called death!

"Great Khan!" Baletu caught up with Chongshan and rushed forward side by side with him.

Chongshan glanced back at Baleto, a little speechless. What should I say to this national teacher? Say that I fled in embarrassment? Say that now my ambitions have all been abandoned under the Sealed Wolf City? Say that the bright future they planned will never appear again?

"Great Khan, what are you going to do next?" Baletu looked at Chongshan, his eyes shining brightly on his aging face.

"Master. Chongshan sighed: "I'm already in a mess, I don't know what to do." ”

"Go back to the grassland, kill the head, send an envoy to seal the wolf, pay tribute!"

"What did you say?" Shigezen looked at Baleto in amazement, barely believing his ears.

He can understand that he can go back to the grassland and gather all the tribal leaders to kill them.

Indeed, after such a big defeat, his reputation for re-kindness has fallen to the bottom. You don't have to think carefully to know that as soon as he goes back this time, the prairie will definitely collapse in an instant!

Countless ambitious fellows will stand up and try to conquer the Quartet, and finally pull him off the horse, sacrifice his head, and achieve the prestige of his new generation of Great Khan.

So he had to do it ahead of time! Kill all the tribal leaders he could kill!

In this way, although the tribes will not be reattached to him because they have lost their heads, they will at least have internal strife! None of the sons of the leaders of those tribes will be fuel-efficient lamps, and they will fight each other and become a mess.

This gave him valuable time to deal with the crisis and reorganize and develop the army.

Although the Dark Cloud Army is strong, it is impossible to suppress the entire grassland with them alone. He also needs a large number of ordinary troops as the sword body, and the Dark Cloud Army can only be used as the most valuable and sharp sword tip. They can't afford to consume.

But what does it mean to send an envoy to confer a wolf and pay tribute? Isn't that a joke! Let him, a dignified steppe khan, be a vassal to the lord of a small city? He can't afford to lose this man!

"Great Khan, after this battle, you will no longer be the master of the entire grassland!" Baletu saw Chongshan's thoughts, and said directly, piercing his heart like a sharp sword!

"You!" Chongshan's eyes erupted with fire, his face was blood-red, and he looked at Baleto as if he was about to eat someone.

But after a while, his face turned pale, and he smiled: "Yes, from now on, I am no longer the master of the prairie." "But it doesn't matter, Great Khan!" Baleto clenched his fists, "just starting all over again." Besides, now you have a much greater advantage than you did back then. Nominally, you are still the Great Khan, and you can use your position to stir up the storm and make everyone big

Tribes fought each other and even fought among themselves. When I helped the Great Khan rise up, there were only less than 10,000 ordinary soldiers under your command, and no, they could not be called warriors, but only young herdsmen. ”

Chongshan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily: "Master, you are right! My big deal is to do it again! My dream will definitely come true! Definitely!" Seeing Chongshan cheer up again, Baletu also nodded secretly, and said: "Chongshan, this person is stupid, but he is better than perseverance." Or now you should call you the Holy Text or the Emperor of the Macros, my dear brother! You drove me out of Youyunjing and didn't hunt me down to death, you will regret it, I swear, you will regret it!"

The winter snow melts, the spring breeze warms up, and another year of reincarnation unfolds in a hurry.

The hands of time seem to be being played fast, and in a blink of an eye, it is snowflakes fluttering again, in other parts of Hualong Country it is still late autumn, but there is already heavy snow goose feathers in the western Xinjiang region.

After a whole year, the current Wolf City has already recovered from the earth-shattering battle a year ago. Once again, it has become a passage connecting Hualong and other countries in the northwest transportation hub.

The bustling scene is even better than before, because the owner of this place has changed forever.

The Li family, who has guarded the western Xinjiang for hundreds of years, has become the royal bloodline of the Hualong Kingdom, the Xuanyuan family.

Countless Hualong people, under the call of the royal family's signboard, rushed from the Central Plains region to the vicinity of Fengwolf City, and in just one year, they directly expanded the scale of Fengwolf City.

Of course, the main body of the Sealed Wolf City has not changed much, but outside the Sealed Wolf City, there is an additional outer city composed of merchants and Hualong nomads.

There is no city wall to protect it, but under the strong control of Xuanyuan Huan, it seems to be orderly.

However, this did not make Xuanyuan Huan feel reassured, after all, although the Wutu tribe was repulsed and returned to the prairie to continue their civil strife, it was impossible to pose any threat to the sealed wolf in a short period of time.

But a bigger and more terrifying threat is yet to come, and that is the Mountain Warrior Clan who now controls Hualong.

It is impossible for the Emperor of the Macro Period to be indifferent to the appearance of Xuanyuan Huan, but the blame is that he has not moved at all for a year.

Not to mention the requisition, there was not even a reprimand and transfer from the previous edict.

Some people analyze that it was because the last big victory over Wutu in Fengwolf City also caused a huge deterrent to Shanmeng, and some people said that it was Chang Huling, the great warlord of the Western Xinjiang in their south, who helped them withstand the pressure of the Hongqi Emperor.

Of course, Xuanyuan Huan will not believe these statements.

Her existence is no different from that of other warlords under the rule of the Mountain Warriors. If the other warlords are just hand lesions, then her Xuanyuan Huan's existence is simply a steel knife that pierces the heart of the Mountain Warrior Clan!

In just one year, countless teams under the banner of her Xuanyuan Huan have emerged on the land of the Central Plains. The big ones gathered more than 100,000 people, and the small ones gathered 3,500 people to raid the Wuthering Mountains and forests. Lazy people listen to books

In short, each of them claimed to be the one who took her Xuanyuan Huan's seal. However, Xuanyuan Huan himself had never seen those guys, and he had not even heard their names.

In this way, the world is almost boiling, but the Hongqi Emperor is extremely weird and there is no movement, quietly coiled in his Youyun Jing. Like a dormant old dragon.

As for the army of the Shanmeng clan, it is even more self-defended with a strong city, and only guards the essence of the Central Plains region to ensure that it will not be eroded.

Elsewhere, they don't seem to have the heart to care about it, and let it get into a mess.

Xuanyuan Huan couldn't figure out what kind of road this was, so she went to ask her almost omnipotent master, but she didn't get an answer from him.

In the past year, her master didn't ask about anything in Feng Wolf City at all, just let Xuanyuan Huan do it himself.

This made Xuanyuan Huan a little panicked at the beginning, and he was cautious in everything, for fear that he would make a mess.

But Ye Chen woke her up with just one sentence.

It doesn't matter how the wolf city is sealed.

Yes, it just doesn't matter. This strategic city located in the western frontier of the empire has nothing to do with their great cause of trying to restore Hualong through the Central Plains.

After all, this is too far away from the core area of the Central Plains. And it is also separated by the vast huge Gobi and the difficult bones of Changhuling.

If you want to use the Wolf City as a base, annex the Central Plains little by little, and finally achieve hegemony, it is simply wishful thinking.

None of the countless large and small forces in history that have seized Western Xinjiang have succeeded, and they all ended in a ridiculous farce.

After all, there is not enough food here, and it is impossible to even be self-sufficient, let alone burden the army to send troops to the southeast.

It's okay to be a warlord and a rich man for a while, but if you want to manage the world, don't make trouble.

Therefore, the role of Feng Wolf City now is not important, its existence only has two purposes, one is to help Xuanyuan Huan make a name for himself and raise a banner, and the other is to train this young princess.

Whether she wants to be a politician or a military strategist, her little experience, city government and even experience are barren and ridiculous. So Ye Chen simply let go and let her do it herself.

It doesn't matter if you do it wrong, it doesn't matter if you mess up. This wolf city is a school, a school used to teach Xuanyuan Huan command and governance.

It may be unfair to the large number of people who have come to her, as well as the loyal werewolves. But there is never fairness in this world.

If you want to really achieve great things, you must hone yourself, grind off the rough layer of stone skin on the outside of her Xuanyuan Huan, and truly build her into a piece of good material and beautiful jade.

Of course, Ye Chen didn't completely shake his hands, he would still do one thing. That is to let Xuanyuan Huan go to look for talents casually, as long as he finds it, whether it is persuasion or forcible binding, he will get Ye Chen to his side.

Ye Chen poured the Three Butterfly Origin into it to ensure its absolute loyalty.

In this way, in fact, even if Xuanyuan Huan messes around, there will be no big mess. You must know that the most important work done by the real superior is to organize, gather and organize people's hearts, and then make decisions.

In fact, it's that simple to say, as for the specific practice and judgment, there are naturally more professional people under him to do it. And once the absolute loyalty of the officials and generals of the key departments under him is guaranteed, then Xuanyuan Huan actually doesn't have to do much. What she has to do is to follow this group of officials to discuss, study, understand and master all kinds of affairs, learn to figure out people's feelings, as well as economic and political affairs, and achieve success little by little

It's long.

So Ye Chen didn't seem to have done anything, but he was definitely better than any great emperor. No matter how great an emperor is, he can only start with theory, and then teach with practical examples.

But Ye Chen is tantamount to directly throwing Xuanyuan Huan into an environment where it is difficult to fail and her subordinates are absolutely loyal, so that she can learn casually and experience it for herself.

It's better than anything else.

And Ye Chen also taught and gave her the ability to control the power of the Three Butterfly Origin Person. In addition to him Ye Chen, Xuanyuan Huan can also control them very well. Of course, her control was under Ye Chen......

"Hey!"

Although he was endowed with such a powerful natural advantage by Ye Chen, Xuanyuan Huan still fell into a state of embarrassment. Today it was hard for her to decide.

As more and more people gathered outside the Wolf City, she had to start thinking about how to settle them well.

You can't just leave them out of the city, right?

Although the Emperor of the Macro Period has no movement now, Xuanyuan Huan understands that this old dragon must be planning something, if it doesn't move, it won't move, as long as it moves, it must be a thunderous blow!

At that time, once the army of the Mountain Warrior Clan arrives in the city, what will happen to these people outside?

Do you want them to be slaughtered by the mountain warrior army?

These people have come all the way to join her Xuanyuan Huan. She couldn't have made such a ruthless decision.

Besides, if they are outside the city, once the army of the Mountain Warrior Clan comes, even if they are ruthless, they will have a great impact on the defense of the city.

For example, their rooms and furniture can be used by the Mountain Warriors to make tools for attacking the city. For example, if they are massacred and threatened on a large scale, they can even directly shake the morale of the defenders in Sealed Wolf City.

This is a big thing that can't be ignored!

And after today's meeting, Xuanyuan Huan's subordinates proposed two solutions to her. The first is to simply mobilize manpower and material resources to build another city outside the Sealed Wolf City! So that the two cities will be each other's horns, and they can also support each other at critical moments.

The second is to expand the wolf sealing, and build a more huge city wall outside the wolf city, completely wrapping the entire wolf city and the outer city spontaneously formed by the wanderers. Forming a situation of a city within a city.

Both of these approaches seem good, but both have problems.

And the problem is the same again, money. It's money.

Without a lot of money, how easy is it for you to expand the Wolf City or build another city?

If it was really that easy to do, Li Yingtian would have done it a long time ago. Their Li family has been entrenched in Fengwolf City for several generations for hundreds of years, and it is only little by little that they have built Fengwolf City into the solid shape it is today.

If you want to build another city or expand it, where will the money come from? But without the silver, you can't just watch it go on like this, after all, if this problem is not solved, then it is the most unstable point of the Sealed Wolf City, and it will be attacked by the Emperor of the Macro Period at any time.

Xuanyuan Huan thought about it and had no countermeasures, although his subordinates were full of talents, but it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and she couldn't conjure up silver out of thin air, and in the end she could only think about going to her omnipotent master to ask questions.

Xuanyuan Huan used the secret of all beings to transform himself into the appearance of an ordinary middle-aged female warrior, got out of the wolf, and walked into the vast Gobi.

Soon after Ye Chen retreated from the Wutu tribe, he once again left the Sealed Wolf City and entered the Great Gobi to cultivate alone.

It's not that he likes to live alone and discordant, it's really that the laws of this Xuanhuang Continent are too strict and terrifying, and he must have an absolutely quiet environment to be able to comprehend quietly and not be affected by the outside world.

So he chose to build a cave in the Gobi on the outskirts of Wolf City, and at the same time worked hard to improve his cultivation.

"Master, Master, are you in there?"

Xuanyuan Huan stood in front of an inconspicuous boulder cave in the Great Gobi, and first asked a few questions inside, but received no response.

In the end, she finally walked in to take a look and found that there was no trace of Ye Chen in the cave. knew that he was going out to practice martial arts again.

At that moment, he took out the brand-new bedding he brought with him, and replaced the old bedding that was not too dirty for Ye Chen. Then he cleaned up the slightly messy cave and was about to sit down and wait, but he heard the sound of horses' hooves crashing on the ground outside the cave.

"Who is coming?" Xuanyuan Huan suddenly became alert, this is a desolate Gobi, and no one should come over in normal times. Not to mention that it is still a martial artist above the Shattered Waves Realm who has a mount.
