The ship docked at the dock of Mangyun City. The city wall had been replaced by the flag of the Star Army, with a sky blue background and a large five-pointed red star with a golden edge.
There is no one on duty at the east gate of Mangyun City. There is only a group of 11 fully armed soldiers on the tower. The soldiers' uniforms are all grass-green combat uniforms. They are extremely powerful. They all hold submachine guns.
Ye Xing's spiritual consciousness briefly scanned it and found that the 10 soldiers were all at the ninth level of acquired cultivation, and one person who was obviously an officer was equipped with a long knife, a short gun and a telescope, and his cultivation level was at the innate level. layer.
Ye Xing unfolded his consciousness and enveloped the whole city. The four city gates were all configured in this way. There were two snipers on duty at the four main high points. The two took turns to use sniper binoculars to observe the surroundings.
In the City Lord's Mansion, there was a team of special forces patrolling around, all equipped with long knives, short assault rifles, and four long-range sniper rifles high up, pointing in four directions.
It can be seen that Mangyun City looks very relaxed, but in fact it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. No one in the city dares to make any chaos, and all the people's lives are carried out as usual.
The Tianxing Army did not interfere with any operations in Mangyun City. Nothing seemed to have changed, but in fact it had changed greatly, because the Tianxing Army was now in power in the city.
Ye Xing nodded in praise. The two leaders of the Tianxing Army were indeed outstanding figures. After running Tianxing City for many years, Li Yishan and Liang Zhihong had a very good approach to local governance.
Ye Xing's spiritual consciousness scanned the city again and found a dozen masters of unknown influence. They were all at the ninth level of innate cultivation. Now they all concealed their true cultivation and pretended to be various identities. They were probably lurking around. Find out the details of the Star Army.
Ye Xing whispered the discovery to the three of them. They were not surprised at all, because there were a large number of people from other forces in Xingyue Logistics, and there were countless forces lurking in Mangyun City. This was for sure. .
Now Qi Ming, Qin Jingxuan, and Qin Xinyue are all at the ninth level of innate cultivation. However, the three of them have the martial arts skills of the peerless masters from three thousand years ago. In addition, the three of them are masters of the fourth and fifth levels of Qi refining. It can be said that it is difficult to deal with these people. Instant kill.
Ye Xing told the three people, and the three of them also developed their spiritual consciousness at the same time, but their spiritual consciousness could only be a few hundred feet, which was only near the east gate, and they found nothing. It made them understand that the cultivation of spiritual consciousness is more important than the cultivation of the body.
For a long time, the three people's spiritual consciousness has not been used to its fullest extent. They are only used to refine Qi. Only Qin Jingxuan refines elixirs and exercises their spiritual consciousness more. In fact, the spiritual consciousness becomes stronger with more use. As their cultivation level improves, This also improves their mastery of martial arts.
The four of them walked to the outskirts of the city lord's palace. There was also a group of soldiers in combat uniforms patrolling the surroundings, stopping the four of them from entering the drawn area.
The soldiers from this group came forward to check, but no one knew the four of them, which was normal. The four had been gone for six years. These were newcomers, real old acquaintances, and they should be high-ranking members of the Tianxing Army now.
The four people in Ye Xing were wearing scholar uniforms, but their true faces were revealed. The soldiers held guns and glanced at the four people with majestic eyes. One soldier said seriously, "It is strictly forbidden to step inside the white line."
Qi Ming said, "Please inform the two leaders that an old friend from Tianxing City is visiting! Let's say it's an old friend named Ye."
A small leader who was obviously this group of soldiers looked at the four people carefully, nodded, and asked a soldier to enter the city lord's mansion to report, but the four people were still stopped and were not allowed to enter the white line.
The rest of the people saw that the four of them were young and looked like scholars, so they were not embarrassed. They just asked the four of them to stand aside and wait, and were not allowed to go forward.
Soon, a man who looked like an officer came out, following the soldiers who went in to report. He stared at the four people carefully for a while, then yelled, "Wow," and rushed over to hug Qi Ming tightly, and then quickly let go. Kai, turned to embrace Ye Xing.
Ye Xing deliberately turned around, accepted the hug from the person who came over, and said, "I don't like men!"
Everyone laughed, and even the soldiers couldn't help laughing.
The person who rushed out was an old acquaintance and one of the people who went to the desert island together. Ji Le was also the pistachio in the special forces team and was now responsible for the security of the city lord's mansion.
Ji Le ignored Ye Xing, looked up at the two women, smiled mischievously, and rushed towards the two women as if he wanted to hug them. The two women also laughed.
Qin Xinyue stretched out her kick to kick, and said angrily, "You are so old, but you are still so bad! You want to take advantage of me!"
Ji Le said with an aggrieved look, "Master, I'm still young, okay? I'm only 18 years old, and I'm not even married yet this year!"
Qi Ming took one step forward and kicked Ji Le hard on the butt. "You kid, you get married every year. How many times did you get married last year?!"
Everyone burst out laughing again, even Ye Xing, who had always been serious about his words, laughed. The two girls were so excited that they burst into tears.
Ji Le looked aggrieved, turned around again, held Ye Xing's hand, and greeted Ye Xing for a long time before he remembered to let the four of them enter the city lord's palace and ask someone to notify the two leaders immediately.
After the five people stepped through the gate, a group of people rushed over. It was Li Yishan, Liang Zhihong, and some people in the mansion.
A large group of people crowded Ye Xing into the office hall of the City Lord's Mansion, and made Ye Xing sit at the head of the table. They didn't even bring tea, and they kept questioning the four people about their whereabouts over the years.
Ye Xing briefly talked about the affairs of the four of them, saying that the four of them were trapped in one place for five years and only came back after they had achieved success in cultivation.
Li Yishan introduced the events of the past six years and briefly reported to Ye Xing, mainly the economic and military aspects, as well as the problems currently faced.
The Tianxing Army currently governs three counties, with troops stationed in major towns. Local management is managed by Xijiang City's management talents. After three years of operation, the Tianxing Army has fully integrated the three counties and is on the right track.
The Tianxing Army has basically firmly controlled the three counties, and the people's livelihood and economy have returned to normal. According to the plan formulated by Ye Xing back then, they will vigorously develop technology, strengthen finance, and enhance their strength. They are now planning the next step.
Liang Zhihong said, "We are discussing a plan for the next few years, whether to continue to cooperate with the Song family or to make a full-scale attack to fight for half of the world and realize our ideal of everyone being rich."
Li Yishan said, "There is a serious problem now, which is talent. There is not enough talent! We really do not have the ability to govern a large area. Now there is a shortage of people everywhere. All kinds of students from various schools can be fully stocked in various places after one year of training. , so there is still a shortage of people everywhere.”
After taking a look at Ye Xing and seeing that Ye Xing had no expression, Qi Ming shook his head and interrupted, "Do you want to conquer the world by yourself? That's impossible!"
Li Yishan shook his head and said, "Of course we also understand that we don't dare to expand our territory in the next three years. We will first manage the three counties. Now we are basically on the right track. We just need to plan for the future."
Qi Ming still shook his head and said, "It won't work if you spread the elites everywhere. There will never be enough people. It will take three counties three years to stabilize the situation. If there are 10 counties, where will the talent come from and where will the time come from? "
Liang Zhihong said, "It is impossible to give up the territory we have conquered to others. We can only use people we trust to govern the place. Otherwise, wouldn't the various places be in chaos again? If we lose our foundation, how can we still be strong?"
Li Yishan lowered his tone and said, "There are more than a dozen large and small cities and nearly a thousand small towns in the three counties. It took three years to straighten these places out. Now many of the town mayors are managed by our elites, which is why we have the current stable situation. We have just implemented our system, but the effects are yet to be seen.”
Qin Xinyue interrupted, "If you conquer the entire Song Dynasty, how many people will you need to govern it? What if you annex a dozen small neighboring countries? The Tang Empire and the Yuan Empire alone will not allow you to grow. time"
Qi Ming continued, "So, we have to change our policies and methods! The Tianxing Army actually has little time."
Ye Xing didn't say a word, just listening to their discussion, everyone understood what Ye Xing meant, so they spoke enthusiastically, all wanting to make suggestions for the future of the Tianxing Army.
The discussion among more than a dozen people continued into the evening, and the discussion did not stop during dinner. Basically, all aspects were involved. The purpose of all these discussions was to stimulate everyone's thinking and guide their thinking.
Qin Jingxuan took a pen and quickly wrote down the key points of each person's speech on the paper one by one.
Qi Ming, especially among the people, is a person who is born to do small things. In addition, his family has been practicing martial arts and literature for generations. He has extremely thoughtful thoughts on many things and mentions many details. He is a consultant-type talent.
Seeing that the night had passed, Ye Xingcai said, "If we continue to discuss these days and gather everyone's wisdom, we will always find a solution. It's late now, let's all rest."
