Chapter 478 Su Mu's Displeasure
In Yangcheng, Marshal Zhao Huaiqing of Tianwei has arrived outside the city with a million-strong army under his command. Seeing this, Su Mu quickly opened the city gate and led Zhao Huaiqing to the city lord's mansion. As for the million-dollar army under his command, he naturally wanted to stay outside the city to garrison Yes, after all, Zhao Huaiqing still needs to take over the city before giving them a place to choose as a camp.
"Marshal, this is Yangcheng City Lord's Mansion." Su Mu brought Zhao Huaiqing to Yangcheng City Lord's Mansion and said aloud.
Zhao Huaiqing nodded when she heard the words, looked at the city lord's mansion in front of her and couldn't help laughing: "The previous Yangcheng city lord really enjoyed it, just to build this city lord's mansion will cost a lot of materials and manpower, right? "
"Indeed, as the Marshal said, the City Lord's Mansion cost two thousand manpower when it was built, and it was built extremely quickly within a month." Su Mu said aloud.
Zhao Huaiqing nodded when she heard the words, and did not doubt why Su Mu knew so clearly.
"Well, yes, it's perfect to use this Yangcheng as a major city for us to fight in the northern world in the future." Zhao Huaiqing said with a smile. He has already planned to use this place as a nail for them in the northern world. Spread around and attack the territory of the northern world.
"This place is indeed very good, but if the marshal wants to use this place as our camp in the northern world, there is still one thing that needs to be done, that is to open up a road from here to the eastern world, and it must be fast, after all, if we are slow , then Emperor Qinghua of the north might send someone to cut us off from the rear, and we will be surrounded in Yangcheng alone and helpless, even if there is no major problem, it will be a taboo for military strategists after all." Su Mu reminded aloud.
"You have a point."
Zhao Huaiqing nodded, looked at Su Mu and said, "I really believe that you can do this. Since you can lead 10,000 soldiers to capture Yangcheng, it is not a problem to get through the back road from here to the Eastern World. Su Mu , I will leave this matter to you.”
"Marshal, it is difficult for me and the 10,000 soldiers under my command to follow the command of the Marshal. After all, even if we get through the main road, we will still be taken back by the generals of the northern world if no one is guarding it. More importantly, we I don't like staying in the rear." Su Mu shook his head to express his refusal.
"Who likes to stay in the rear?"
Zhao Huaiqing shook his head and smiled and said, "Well, I'll give you another 20,000 sergeants, plus the 10,000 sergeants you originally had, for a total of 30,000. I want you to firmly grasp our retreat within a month. Later, I will send someone to take over the main channel you have opened up, how about you go to the front line to fight at that time?"
Su Mu was a little helpless when he heard the words, so he could only nod his head and said, "Just follow the orders of the marshal."
"That's very good." Zhao Huaiqing nodded with a smile, strode to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and gently pushed the gate open.
Zhao Huaiqing smiled and walked into the front yard of the City Lord's Mansion. The north is rich in flowers. It is the end of May in the middle of the year, and all the flowers in the City Lord's Mansion are in full bloom, as if walking into a world of flowers.
"A garden full of peaches and plums, a good place!" Zhao Huaiqing said in admiration. Although he is a man and a fat man weighing more than two hundred catties, he still has his own vision for beauty. The whole yard of flowers in front of him made him feel relieved. Some.
...
One morning passed, and Su Mu also successfully handed over Yangcheng to Zhao Huaiqing completely, and rushed towards the southern twelve cities with the original 10,000 sergeants under his command and the 30,000 sergeants previously promised by Zhao Huaiqing.
Because Su Mu made great contributions to capture Yangcheng for them this time, Marshal Zhao Huaiqing of Tianwei also gave him a golden chariot powered by nine silver-white dragon horses, which looked extremely noble from a distance.
The dragon horse itself is the descendant of the combination of the lost true dragon blood of the dragon clan and the horse monster. It has two horns on its head, and its tail is exactly the same as the dragon's tail. up.
Thirty thousand troops followed behind the dragon chariot, and the golden chariot was swam in the void by the dragon horse,
Heading towards the southern twelve cities.
It's just that Su Mu is still a little upset now, that is, Zhao Huaiqing, the city lord of none of the twelve cities in the south, did not give him the great seal, which also made it impossible for Su Mu to fully grasp the twelve cities in the south.
There is a big gap between the cities of the Earth Immortal Realm and the Mortal Realm, and that is the Great Seal of the City Lord. The Great Seal of the City Lord has only three purposes, that is, to mobilize the city guards and recruit soldiers. One of the most critical functions of the great seal, the activation of the city protection formation must be done by the city lord's great seal.
Although this exchange with Zhao Huaiqing made Su Mu nominally the lord of the Twelve Southern Cities, both parties knew that the one who really controlled the Twelve Southern Cities was still Zhao Huaiqing.
However, Su Mu didn't care much about this. For him, he had a better way to make the Twelve Southern Cities his territory, but his method was often accompanied by some evil spirits.
The twelve cities in the south are not far apart. Basically, there are cities that appear a hundred miles away and are linked together. The main city in the middle is also the main hall of the twelve cities in the south. That's where Su Mu's destination is.
It is impossible for Zhao Huaiqing to completely hand over the ruling power of the twelve cities in the south to himself. He only handed over the governance power to him, and Zhao Huaiqing can only make decisions on military power and political power after asking.
This time, the 20,000 sergeants Su Mu who followed him back did not think that they were just soldiers who followed him to open up the main roads between the eastern world and the northern world. Su Mu clearly sensed that those sergeants were investigating him, and they were extremely careful.
"Thunder." Su Mu shouted while sitting in the carriage in front of him.
Lei Ming was taken aback when he heard the words, and flew to the right side of Su Mu's chariot. Su Mu lifted the curtain and gave him a wink. He didn't do anything, but his mind was already thinking about how to complete Su Mu's instruction this time.
It hasn't been long since they fully assimilated 10,000 sergeants last time, and another 20,000 sergeants have emerged. Lei Ming also understands Su Mu's inner worries. After all, the most important thing for them to return to the southern twelve cities is For the palace at the bottom of the pool in the valley?
But the 20,000 sergeants sent by Zhao Huaiqing this time disrupted their rhythm. They had to fully grasp the 20,000 sergeants so that they could not feel betrayed before they could proceed with their plans boldly.
