In today's Fengyun Continent, the soldiers of most countries are called pawns or soldiers, but the private soldiers of the princes and nobles are called guards. From bottom to top, they are the ordinary iron guards, bronze guards, silver guards and the highest gold guards. . Iron Guards are the most common soldiers. Bronze Guards command ten Iron Guards, Silver Guards command ten Bronze Guards, and Gold Guards command ten Silver Guards. Therefore, as a Silver Guard, my status is not low.
Lin Haoming has roughly locked some situations in his mind at this time. This mission is not too different. The mission is indeed still based on the information collected by the three people on the fifth floor. It is the Tianming Realm Fengyun Continent, but the current era and Location, which does not appear in any of the missions, can be said to be a separate thing.
Although it was a separate matter, it was useful to collect information before. Now the place I am in is a world with thin spiritual energy. This world is mainly based on martial arts. Because the spiritual energy is too thin, even if it reaches the level of foundation building, it will not exist. Entering the period equivalent to Qi training, here it is regarded as entering Taoism through martial arts and reaching innateness. Such innate masters are very rare in the entire Yue Kingdom. In Ning Zhongying's memory, there is no such master in Zhongyong Bo's side.
Because of the lack of such masters, things have become simpler. The monarch of the country has absolute authority. Of course, this is generally the case, but this is not the case in the Yue Kingdom right now.
Fengyun Continent is now in the period of the Great Xia Dynasty, and is in a semi-feudal system. The prefecture and county system is implemented in the areas under direct jurisdiction. The remaining places are divided into dozens of countries, large and small. Some of these countries are kingdoms and some are principalities. But over the years, , there are only six major kingdoms and a few small countries sandwiched between the countries as buffers. The reason for this is mainly because Daxia also had rebellions, but more importantly, the two rebellions that led to the kingdom's strength were greatly affected. The weakening gave the kingdom an opportunity to grow, but even so, Daxia was still a behemoth. The empire had a total of ninety-three counties, which was large enough to be equivalent to the Eurasian continent where Lin Haoming was located. Among the remaining six major countries, the largest was Wei. , the area does not exceed the average size of ten counties. The six countries combined are only about half of Daxia, and the total population is only one-third. However, there are barbarians in the north and northwest of Daxia, and you need to be careful. Moreover, it fell into the third succession war, which gave other countries another chance.
The king of the Yue Kingdom is now paralyzed. The prince Zhang Xiao has the power, and the prince oversees the country. The first thing the prince did after taking office was to take back the fiefdoms. In order to restrict the enfeoffment of various countries, the Great Xia Kingdom could have allowed the nobles of the feudal countries to have fiefdoms. But now the general trend has changed, not only for the Yue Kingdom, but also for the other five countries.
Lin Haoming is currently in the capital of the Yue Kingdom, serving as the bodyguard of the Crown Prince Ning Xie, and his main task this time is to help Uncle Zhongyong replace the Yue Kingdom. For now, regardless of the situation of Uncle Zhongyong, who is already in a precarious situation, he has to protect himself. The eldest son of Proton, the Zhongyongbo mansion in the capital has been completely surrounded.
Almost all seven-star missions sealed their cultivation and relied on their own instincts to survive. Lin Haoming originally thought that the eight-star missions would be similar, and even made full preparations for it. However, he did not expect that the eight-star missions would be like this. Although The eight-star mission is too random. It is somewhat similar to the previous special missions and is not specific. However, the seven-star mission tests people to survive without any help. So what is the eight-star mission?
At this time, he was about to fully integrate into the mission world, and the information transmitted by the soul ring, in addition to the main mission, also knew that he could only use the same cultivation level as the original person.
This Ning Zhongying has grown up in Uncle Zhongyong's house since he was a child. He followed the prince as a hostage seven years ago. But now, this place is tightly surrounded. The prince's only role is to serve as a hostage. Once Uncle Zhongyong's side is finished, , it’s all over here.
As Lin Haoming integrates here, his first thing is to find out who the other people are and what roles they play.
The small courtyard where he is now is his residence. As a silver guard and the guard commander here, Lin Haoming has some power, so he summoned the guards in the house as soon as possible.
Earl Zhongyong's Mansion in the capital does not have as many as one hundred guards. In fact, there are only thirty guards. In other words, Lin Haoming only has three bronze guards. All thirty of them live in the manor and are on duty in different shifts on weekdays.
Facing these thirty people, Lin Haoming found that no one could explain them, because he had already made a gesture, and the soul ring of this mission did not remind each other not to break up with each other, but he just couldn't let others know.
Seeing that none of the guards responded, Lin Haoming had no choice. He didn't have all the strength in his hands to gather the others, but who said there wouldn't be anyone among the servants, maids, and even the prince's wives and concubines.
"Everyone, listen, from now on, the guards will no longer have shifts. Everyone is always ready. Go back and prepare your swords, armor, bows and crossbows, and then come back here to see me." Lin Haoming ordered.
After hearing Lin Haoming's order, one of the bronze guards named Ning Heshui took the initiative and asked: "Sir, what are you going to do? Is this an order from the Crown Prince?"
This bronze guard's surname is also Ning, and this surname is the surname of an earl. In order to train generals, earls from various places will specially recruit some orphans in addition to their descendants. These orphans will also have the same surname as their masters. Lin Haoming's Ning Zhongying is The reason why the family generals trained by orphans became Silver Guards was because they had performed well since childhood, and secondly they were originally assigned to the crown prince. The Ning Heshui who spoke in front of him was a descendant of Zhongyong Bo's side branch. He, as a Bronze Guard, was better than Compared with the other two, he is a little less capable, but who makes him a true Ning family member? Even if he is a side branch, he is still a true Ning family member.
"Don't you know the current situation? We are all surrounded." Lin Haoming shouted.
"Sir, we all know this, but what's the use of it? When that time comes, we can just surrender. We are just ordinary guards. At most, we will be sent to the army." Ning Heshui said straightforwardly.
What he said was really treasonous, but it was also true. The other guards also looked at Lin Haoming with strange eyes. After all, it was meaningless to rely on thirty people.
"I'm not asking you to resist. I'm afraid that if something happens, you should understand." Lin Haoming sighed bitterly, and after speaking, he deliberately looked at the east wing where the prince lived. This is almost equivalent to telling these people that I am not a protector. The Crown Prince, but look after the Crown Prince.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the guards suddenly lit up. Ning Heshui came over excitedly and said, "Sir, could someone ask you to keep an eye on the crown prince? If so, do we have a way out?"
