"Qianhu Ji Wuliang pays homage to the general!"
"Qianhu Kouyun first pays homage to the general!"
"Qianhu Zhonglidian pays homage to the general!"
"Qianhu Zhao Tiehe pays homage to the general!"
…
Jiang Li's team marched ten miles outside the Cock Crying Barrier. The city gate opened, and eleven young generals in bright armor rode out and galloped towards Jiang Li.
Riding their horses to a nearby place, the eleven people dismounted and saluted respectfully, all showing their heroic and extraordinary temperament.
Except for one of them who is in the late stage of Juqing Realm, the other ten are all Xiantian Realm warriors.
"These young generals are all of extraordinary arrogance. They are all very young, but they all have extremely high martial arts realms and extraordinary potential. Almost all of them have the potential to break through to the realm of divine transformation!"
Shangguan Qingyan glanced at these eleven people, secretly surprised in her heart.
He can achieve innate breakthroughs at a young age and holds a high position. The armor he wears is not the Da Zhou standard armor. It is of extremely high quality. They are all made by famous masters. The weapons he carries are all magic weapons.
All of them come from wealthy and powerful families.
"Jiang Li, you are worrying me to death. I heard that you were deprived of the Qi Meridian Realm by Marquis Wu and are missing. I beg your adoptive father to let you go. You arrived at the Liangzhou Camp half a month ago!"
A tall young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Jiang Li, walked out with concern and worry evident. He stepped forward and hugged Jiang Li.
"Zhao Tiehe, you haven't reached the level of Xiantian yet, and you come to serve under me as a member of the Qianhu family? I'm not one to take in useless generals!" Jiang Li said with a smile.
"Haha, don't talk about thousands or hundreds of households, I can just follow you and be the general banner!"
Zhao Tiehe chuckled and felt at ease.
When he hugged Jiang Li just now, he secretly used his strength, but he couldn't trap Jiang Li at all.
Although the latter's body is soft and looks like an ordinary person without cultivation, there is a strange power inside it that cannot be touched even by a thousand pounds of force.
Although Zhao Tiehe couldn't figure out whether this was the power of Qi or martial art, it was enough to prove that Jiang Li was fine.
Just be safe!
When Ji Wuliang, Kou Yunxian, Zhong Lidian and other ten people saw this, they secretly let go of their worries.
The ten of them were among the top ten in the martial arts competition this year. Because they failed to challenge Jiang Li after the palace examination, they abided by their agreement and demoted themselves to serve as a hundred households under him.
However, because the fourth prince Sima Ye was directly promoted to the commander of Jiang Li's guard post, he was also promoted and currently holds the position of Qianhu in Jimingzhang.
For the past month, I have been looking forward to Jiang Li's arrival.
"You all work in Jimingzhang?"
Jiang Li looked at the few people with some doubts.
He was appointed as the commander of the guard station. According to the military system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the guard station had a full strength of 5,600 people, but there were 11 thousand generals here.
"In addition to the 5,600 new troops in Jimingzhan, there are also the defenders originally stationed in the city, including one guard and horse, and in addition there are a thousand handymen!"
Zhao Tiehe said: "Originally, my adoptive father and the fourth prince planned to let me guard the Cock Crying Barrier, but my realm is still close to the Xiantian realm and I don't have the corresponding strength, so you have to serve as the chief officer of this barrier city. I will be your deputy, and you can treat me as the commander-in-chief of the personal army!"
"If you want to be my general bannerman, you must first train to the realm of ten thousand men!" Jiang Li said with a smile.
The group set off again and entered the barrier city.
Although it is only a military city, the size of the Cock Cry Barrier is larger than that of an ordinary barrier city.
There are many houses in the city with regular layout, including houses, horse farms, schools, warehouses, medical buildings, military offices, etc.
More than 10,000 Zhou Dynasty sergeants had already stood in order, waiting quietly in the city to welcome the arrival of the young commander.
Jiang Li's various deeds in Shengjing City have already spread throughout the Liangzhou Camp and the thousands of miles of Great Wall under his rule.
After Zhao Tiehe and others came to Zhancheng to take up their posts, they mentioned Jiang Li's extraordinary qualities many times.
Although these eleven people are all young generals, their strength and skill are not inferior to those of Qianhu generals who have been in the army for many years.
After being stationed in Barrier City for a month, he had already won the trust of his sergeants.
Therefore, Jiang Li had already established most of his prestige before he took up a post in Zhengcheng.
"Let's meet General!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers knelt on the ground and bowed to greet him with great momentum.
"Everyone, I have been ordered by His Royal Highnesses to take over as the chief officer of Zhengcheng. I will guard this city together with you all and protect our people of the Great Zhou Dynasty from Beimang's attack."
Jiang Li looked at the ten thousand soldiers in front of him, and felt a little excited in his heart.
A year ago, he was a useless scholar at the mercy of the eldest lady in the Zhenwu Marquis Mansion, living in a small courtyard and dependent on Chuchu.
But in less than a year, he had become a fourth-grade general guarding one side and commanding tens of thousands of troops. He had full power and was invincible in the realm of divine transformation.
But if you want to compete with Jiang Shirong, it is still far from enough.
"Guarding the border is not easy, and the battle is cruel. From today on, all soldiers' monthly military pay will be increased by three taels, to five taels for a hundred households, and ten taels for a thousand households. The meat will be doubled, and the medicinal soup will be doubled. Those who advance rapidly and are among the best, regardless of their status and origin, will receive more There are medicinal wine, secret medicine, weapons, armor, and skill rewards!”
Jiang Li said loudly: "I don't care for idlers or mediocre people under my command. From today on, daily training will be increased by three hours. Anyone who is slack and lazy will be punished by military law.
"You joined the army. Although you are guarding the border for the Great Zhou Dynasty, do you want to be a soldier for the rest of your life? A man's best years should be to build a career and be promoted to an official position. I have martial arts and endless secret medicines. It depends on you whether you have the ability to take them. !”
"Double the military pay, double the meat, double the medicine!"
"Practice well and get higher rewards!"
When the more than 10,000 soldiers in the barrier city heard this, their emotions immediately rose.
None of them join the army with the thought and expectation of being granted an official title.
But the vast majority of people come from ordinary or even poor backgrounds. They have no opportunity to come into contact with martial arts inheritance, and their families cannot afford meat or medicinal soups.
Now that the opportunity is right in front of you, how could you not be tempted?
No matter how long or hard you practice, so what?
As long as the reward is real and the free money is real, that’s it!
"We are willing to serve the general, even if we are in front and behind the horse, even to the death!"
The sergeants all cheered, jumped with excitement, and were full of hope and vision for the future.
"What a great gesture!"
Ji Wuliang, Kou Yunxian, Zhong Lidian and other young people were shocked.
They came from a wealthy family, so they naturally knew how much money Jiang Li needed to support the promise he had just made.
This kind of supply is enough to support two more such armies.
"Time waits for no one. All sergeants should return to their posts and garrison for training. There should be no slack for a moment!" Jiang Li shouted.
"promise!"
Ten thousand soldiers received the order and immediately dispersed, either on the top of the city to defend themselves, or into the racecourse or school grounds to practice drills.
"Brother Jiang Li is so awesome!"
Lin Qingmu saw this scene in his eyes and felt that the young man's figure in front of him became taller and majestic, as if he was like a mountain supporting the sky. He could only watch and look up.
"As expected of the son of Marquis Wu, he is so generous. These soldiers have benefited from it, but they have to be loyal to him and sacrifice their lives for him!"
Lin Jiuyun was also speechless.
It is extremely difficult for the Zhenwei Escort Agency to support more than a hundred escorts. How does it feel to support an army of ten thousand people?
He looked at Lin Qingmu, whose eyes were full of Jiang Li, and suddenly felt a feeling of hatred that iron could not become steel.
The opportunity to change your life is right in front of you, why can't you take the initiative?
That woman from the Mo family has almost become Jiang Li’s follower these days!
Why are you not in a hurry!
Lin Jiuyun shook his head and looked at the escorts around him. He found that the eyes of these people had become fiery at some point. It seemed that they wanted to join the army under Jiang Li now.
"I didn't expect that at such a young age, you would be able to manage your soldiers with ease!"
In the barrier city military office hall, Shangguan Qingyan's expression was complicated. The more she came into contact with Jiang Li, the harder and harder she could see the young man in front of her.
He may seem young, but he is far more calm and thoughtful than his peers.
"How do I know how to run an army? Before today, I had never had any experience in leading an army!"
Jiang Li shook his head and said: "I only know that everyone wants to live a good life and strive for success. I want to rely on them to make contributions and conquer Beimang, so naturally I have to give them equal rewards.
"What's more, the reward just now only allows them to accept my leadership faster. If I want them to be truly convinced and trustful, these alone are far from enough!"
"You are much more awake than I thought. I even have the urge to stay and see where you can go in the future!"
Shangguan Qingyan glanced at Jiang Li, frowned and said, "Don't look at me with that look. I'm just saying that once the incident in the Tufal Country is over, I will leave here and never see you again until I get married." The day I can kill you!"
"Yes!" Jiang Li nodded, "You can leave, but don't go back to the Mo family again. Although you have no intention of betraying the Mo family, the Mo family can no longer tolerate you!"
"This is my business and has nothing to do with you!"
Shangguan Qingyan stood up angrily. For some reason, a surge of anger suddenly surged in her heart. If she stayed here for a moment longer, she was afraid that she would lose control of herself and draw her sword to hurt someone.
Although she knew that she was no match for Jiang Li!
But very angry.
What does um mean?
Although I definitely have to leave.
But it’s just very uncomfortable…
"Ah this..."
Jiang Li watched Shangguan Qingyan leave with a headache.
Although what happened in the secret valley was purely accidental and not what I wanted, it still happened after all.
It is naturally impossible to pretend that nothing happened.
"Mo Yunliang and the others should have been here a long time ago. It's time to call them back!"
Jiang Li shook his head, the Sumeru Ring in his hand flickered, and many items appeared in front of him, all of which were relics of the masters of Linghe Castle.
Most of them are weapons, precious medicines, and banknotes, and there are also some martial arts and Taoist inheritance from Linghe Castle.
Jiang Li's vision is now different than before. Whether it is the several volumes of "Arsenal" given by Emperor Jing or the extensive reading in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Jiang Li's knowledge of martial arts and Taoism has greatly increased.
Although the inheritance of Linghe Fort is extraordinary and can increase his accumulation of martial arts inheritance, it is also relatively limited.
Jiang Li studied it carefully several times, and the two pieces of Pan Emperor's bones shimmered in his mind, and he quickly mastered the mysterious essence of these martial arts and Taoism.
Jiang Li put away these martial arts and Taoist inheritance books and reserved them for future rewards to his soldiers, hundreds of households, and thousands of households.
Then his eyes fell on a crane-shaped jade pendant.
This jade pendant was found on Xi Yingying's body. It is also a space magic weapon similar to the Xumi Ring.
It's just that the space contained in it is much smaller than the Sumeru Ring.
Less than one square meter in size.
Jiang Li's thoughts flew out, erasing the mark of spiritual thoughts left by Xi Yingying on it, and his thoughts entered it to explore.
His eyes instantly focused on one of the classics.
""The Great Technique of Huangtian Killing"!"
"This is a collection of killing moves written by Jiang Shirong who has forty years of experience in martial arts. It contains moves that come from many top martial arts inheritances in the world, and are integrated with his own martial arts insights.
"Every move is an extremely vicious and killing technique. Although it is not the ultimate inheritance and top secret technique of his martial arts, it is also a summary and condensation of his lifelong martial arts experience. From it, we can get a glimpse of his martial arts will and boxing intention. Spirit!"
"Jiang Shirong actually gave this technique to Xi Yingying. The relationship between them is far beyond my imagination. How would Jiang Shirong feel if he knew that Xi Yingying died in my hands!"
A little late, Haihan Haihan
