On the ninth day of September, although the scorching sun is still there, the temperature is no longer as hot as it was in July and August. Even places like Fengri City can feel quite cool at night.
Early in the morning, Shen Hao dressed neatly and went out. He said that the trip would take several days and that he would go to places other than Jingxi to bring an end to the Xuanqing Guard's internal purge, which had entered the final stage. Black flag camps in various places have been busy these days bringing comfort. This short period of time was not easy. The Black Flag Camps in various places were able to withstand the pressure from all parties and actually carry out the unprecedented purge of the Xuanqing Guards in accordance with Shen Hao's wishes, and they indeed suffered a lot.
Just "offending someone" is enough to change the color of many veteran officials, not to mention being labeled as "killing one's own people". This reputation is terrible.
Xia Nu packed up Shen Hao's change of clothes and gave them to the guards to take away and deliver them to the door, feeling quite reluctant to part with them. After all, for Xia Nu, the days she spends alone with her master are becoming less and less. Moreover, the two little fox girls at home have not yet slept in their master's bed, so time is very tight.
Naturally, Shen Hao didn't think about Xia Nu's little thoughts. He arrived at the Yamen, ordered all the people and horses, and left Fengri City through the teleportation circle.
Sitting on the carriage were Shen Hao and his adjutant Wang Yiming.
Having tasted the sweetness of being Shen Hao's adjutant before, Wang Yiming was a little entangled now. He really didn't want to let go of his adjutant position, and at the same time he also wanted to continue to be in charge of the affairs of the Black Flag Camp in Fengri City. But it was too busy to juggle both ends, and he, who had always been energetic, felt more and more reluctant. Even in order to take care of his position as adjutant, he has been delegating power to his subordinates. Before this, he himself did not believe that there would be a day when he could no longer take care of his power.
But now Wang Yiming's vision is no longer what it used to be. No matter how slow he is, he can see that his master is being groomed as a successor by the commander. A single Black Flag Battalion leader can lead a Xuanqing Guard battle. The unprecedented internal purge is enough to show how special my master's status is in the Xuanqing Guard system.
Moreover, it was said before that Master Shen was called into the palace alone many times to give instructions. Does this mean that even the emperor is optimistic about Master Shen? Or did he also agree to the commander's move to train Master Shen as his successor?
So if everything goes well, the position of commander of the Black Flag Battalion will definitely not be the end of Mr. Shen's career, and there will be a lot of room for advancement in the future.
In this case, should you continue to follow Mr. Shen, or should you seek a position to accumulate qualifications? How to choose? This is why Wang Yiming is confused. After all, both options seem to have their own benefits.
Anyway, Wang Yiming has not made a final decision yet. He plans to take advantage of his good cultivation and physical strength to hold on to both jobs for a while, but he is reluctant to make a choice until the end.
"Have all the people been dispersed?"
In the carriage, Shen Hao was wearing a rare all-over, black robe with gold patterns, a commander's crown, a palm-sized black flag battalion commander's belt, a wild goose spine knife placed across his knees, his back straight, and his eyes closed.
The evil energy on his body seemed to be surging in all directions, and he felt eager to try. In the small space, Shen Hao was like a wild beast ready to hunt, exuding an increasingly murderous aura.
Wang Yiming has not seen his master like this for a long time, and his heart has naturally become the most vigilant. Now he only dares to sit half-assed in the carriage, his body is tense, and his face is serious. He knew that coming out this time was not as simple as running around to comfort and patrol, but that he was going out to see blood. The sounds from the outside world are just smoke released by the commander-in-chief.
"Sir, the manpower has been sent out in three batches according to your instructions, and the elite Black Flag battalions from various places have also received your request for defense assistance and have deployed men and horses along the way."
"Where are the people in Jingdong? Are there any rumors?"
"No, everything is normal. In this short period of time, the Black Flag Battalion's purge within the Xuanqing Guards has caused a huge stir. Many heads have been lost in thousands of households in various places, and everyone is afraid of killing them. Now you Even if I want to inspect it personally, I will remain silent and dare not move for fear that something will go wrong again."
"Afraid of being killed? Haha, even if these words are spread outside, those who believe them are either fools, or they are pretending to be bad. Who among the people of Xuan Qingwei will be frightened by a few heads?" Shen Haozui said Shang was smiling, but his expression was serious, and his tone was cold as hell.
"This subordinate is stupid! Please punish me." Wang Yiming was quick to speak, but he didn't really believe what was said outside. Seeing Shen Hao say this, he immediately knelt down in the sedan and felt uneasy. He was afraid that Shen Hao would be regarded as the kind of fool who believed in rumors easily.
However, Shen Hao did not struggle with Wang Yiming's words just now, but he did not open his eyes. He just let Wang Yiming continue to kneel, and then said unhurriedly: "After this purge, you must be aware of it. Although we are black Qi Ying is still a member of the Xuanqing Guard, but they are no longer on the same path as the ordinary Xuanqing Guard. They are as obedient and honest as they are now, but they are disgusted and wary of us in their hearts.
This will also be the daily errand environment of Black Flag Camp from now on. You, including those who think the same as you, must change as soon as possible. "
Shen Hao shouldn't have said these words to Wang Yiming. It was Wang Yiming's turn to realize it, but since he was Wang Yiming's adjutant, Shen Hao had to remind him to avoid misunderstandings.
"I understand! I will definitely pay attention to the rumors in various places. If there is any change, I will report it to you as soon as possible."
Shen Hao hummed and said nothing.
After that, Shen Hao first traveled from Jingxi to Jingbei, and then to Jingdong and Jingnan. He would stay in every major hub city for three to five days. On the one hand, he was cheering up the Black Flag Camps everywhere. On the other hand, he was also spreading a message to the outside world: The Black Flag Camp would carry out long-term internal purges of Xuanqing Guards, and it would not just be a one-time purge. After burning the fire, the Xuanqing Guards in various places should pay attention to themselves. When the time comes, they will have no one to blame.
However, Shen Hao's pomp was very grand. I don't know if it was because he was besieged and killed by evil monks in Fengli City before. Now he has become extremely cautious. Not only did he bring fifty or sixty personal guards with him, but he also A dozen elite local black flag battalion guards will be deployed along the road.
In fact, this is no problem. In order to flatter Shen Hao, various places continued to add protective forces to Shen Hao when he left their jurisdiction. As soon as this started, the chief officer of the Black Flag Battalion behind him would not dare not say, "You have ten, he has fifteen, and I will add twenty more... When Shen Hao arrives in Jingdong, he will accompany him as a There are more than 800 elite black flag battalion guards from various places.
After arriving in Jingdong, this evil trend remained the same. Even as soon as he entered, more than a hundred guards joined Shen Hao's guard, and the number of guards around Shen Hao was raised to a thousand...
