Chapter 750: Wisdom and Bravery
"Squeak~~~"
The dark iron gate opened, and a general belonging to Chen Jun came out on horseback. After seeing my rank and position, he immediately cupped his fists and respectfully said: "The last general, Chen Jun's captain, Han Ce, see Mr. July Liuhuo!"
"You are welcome."
I lightly raised my hand and said, "I'm here this time to recruit soldiers."
"That……"
He looked behind me and said, "Why did your lord bring so many soldiers here?"
"Oh~~~"
Zhang Lingyue rode forward and said with a smile: "Thieves are rampant along the way, that's why we brought so many soldiers here."
"I see."
Han Ce frowned, and said, "In that case, please follow me into the city to see the prefect."
"good."
I stepped forward and said: "Zhang Lingyue, only bring the guard battalion, and the rest of the troops are camped outside the city to wait for orders."
"yes!"
...
A group of people entered Chenjun, and not long after, they arrived at the prefect's mansion. Before we entered, we saw a man in his sixties coming out. He was dressed in brocade clothes. At first glance, he looked like a rich man. With a smile, he said: "Oh, what kind of wind is it today, and it actually brought the newly appointed deputy commander of the Silver Frost Legion, Mr. Qiyue Liuhuo."
"Master Taishou."
I nodded and smiled: "Let's get straight to the point. I'm here this time to collect the 10,000 recruits distributed by the Far East Province to the Silver Frost Legion."
"No hurry, no hurry, the lower officials have already hosted a banquet, and we are talking about working together while eating."
I was taken aback for a moment, and Zhang Lingyue nodded at me, so they walked in together.
In the prefect's mansion, in a very elegant small pavilion, there was a table of sumptuous food and wine, and there were several slim and graceful maids standing beside it. The prefect of Chen Jun smiled and said, "Please, my lord!"
"Thanks."
I'm a player, so I'm not used to this, but I still sat down, picked up a cup and had a drink with the prefect, and then said with a smile: "After the Battle of the North Wall, the Silver Frost Legion suffered heavy losses, especially the Iron Step Battalion. Nearly half of the troops, we have been recruiting recruits from all over the country recently, Chen County is a nearby big city, and can provide the most reserves, but I don’t know why these recruits have not come to report for a long time, does the prefect know the reason?”
"There are many reasons."
The prefect laughed, and said: "Firstly, the recruits have not been fully recruited, and the armors and weapons provided to them are not all ready. Secondly, the recruitment procedures are cumbersome, and there is insufficient food and grass. I was starving, and I really didn't dare to send hungry soldiers to the Silver Frost Legion, so it was delayed."
"Excuses..." Zhang Lingyue said in a low voice.
I smiled slightly: "Chen Jun is obviously a rich city, why is there a shortage of food and grass?"
"My lord, you don't know something!"
The prefect coughed and said: "The Far East Province has been fighting against the strange demon army for the past few years, and the taxes are heavy. In addition, the wind and rain have not been smooth for two consecutive years. There is a lot of money and food, so that after the recruitment of this batch of recruits, there is no money to manage everything."
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Master Qiyue Liuhuo is in the Silver Frost Legion, so he probably doesn't know the hardships of county guards like us. You can receive a lot of food and salary from Winter Sun City every month, and you can even We don't have any money to get some oil and water from other aspects, and we are so poor."
"Ah...hahahaha~~~"
I was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly, and said, "So that's how it is, my lord said it earlier, it was just right, I returned from the pioneering forest and sea last time, and captured a lot of treasures from the strange demon army, how about..."
As he spoke, he looked to the left and right.
The prefect immediately held a meeting, raised his hand, and said: "Everyone get back, Qiyue Liuhuo and I have to secretly discuss some important matters!"
"Yes, my lord!"
A group of servants and maids retreated one after another, and even Zhang Lingyue avoided it.
...
"Lord Qiyue Liuhuo, it's fine." The prefect laughed.
"OK."
I immediately shook the package, and the 20w gold coins were piled up in front of my eyes, and the golden brilliance directly made the eunuch's eyes round, with an unbelievable look.
"I didn't... I didn't expect the strange demon territory to be so rich..." He trembled, his eyes were full of greed.
I smiled slightly. In fact, this is my first prize in the event. I haven't had time to spend it yet, so I stepped forward and whispered in the ear of the other party: "Our Silver Frost Legion is not short of money now, what we lack is money." The source of soldiers, if there are not enough soldiers, will soon be replaced by other regiments. Once the status is lost, I am afraid that those rations and salaries will never be seen again, so please be more tolerant and hand over 10,000 recruits to me. These... just treat it as the lack of money and food to subsidize the county."
"It's easy to say!"
The prefect held up a handful of gold coins, and the whole person was about to burst into joy.
"but……"
My voice sank, and I said, "I took these gold coins from the army's warehouse, not from one person, so my lord needs to give me a receipt so that I can explain to Commander Wang Shuang, right? "
"Yeah!"
He nodded again and again, and said, "Come here, take care of me with pen and ink!"
A few minutes later, a receipt fell into my hands, signed by the prefect of Chen County, and even stamped with a prefect seal, which is really a money fanatic, but it also reflected that the people of the Silver Frost Legion were like him before Dealing with each other, every time a recruit is recruited, he must bleed, otherwise he will be detained.
The moment the receipt was handed over to me, I immediately sank down and collected the gold coins with one click at the fastest speed. With a click, the gold coins like a hill arrived in my package in an instant.
"My lord, what are you!?" The prefect was stunned for a moment.
I took a few steps back, raised my eyebrows, shook the receipt in my hand, and said with a smile: "The soldiers in front have died so many in order to resist the strange demon army. How dare you even suck their blood? I think you are tired of living." !"
"Yeah?"
Chenjun Taishou sneered: "It's a pity that you said the wrong thing, you are the one who is tired of life! Come on, surround me, a mere deputy commander of the Silver Frost Legion, a little general dares to play this kind of game with the old man!" Shameful tricks? Do you know that Lao Tzu is the father-in-law of Mingyang Wang Xuanyuanyi, you moved me, you want to die!? Let me tell you, even if you are killed here today, no one will dare to say no! "
The more Zhang Ling was startled, he drew out his sword directly: "How dare you!"
"Go ahead and try!"
Surrounded by swords, a group of guards drew their swords at me, and there was a group of archers in the distance, all with bows and arrows, waiting for an order to shoot me and Zhang Lingyue into hedgehogs.
"Hand over the receipt immediately!"
The prefect of Chen County sneered: "Otherwise, you two will definitely not be able to get out!"
"Just try!"
Holding the receipt in one hand, and the endless wind in the other, with a sound of "Peng", the whole person was plunged into a fog of shadows, strands of shadows and thunder and lightning flickered continuously, and the momentum of the whole person took a leap in an instant, and at the same time, his eyes froze. , looked at the group of people on the other side, and said: "There are 30,000 of my iron armor outside the city, you just try it, as long as you dare to shoot an arrow, I will order them to enter the city and clean up all of you. Don’t keep it! And this receipt, once I hand it over to Feng Xiang, Chen County prefect, can you keep your dog’s head?”
"You are presumptuous!"
The prefect's face was ferocious, and he roared angrily: "You are just a general in the Far East Province, how can you recognize Feng Xiang?"
"What do you think?"
I raised my eyebrows: "I'm not only from the Far East Province, but also from Longyu. You can try to touch me, but I don't know if you can afford the final price!"
"Dragon Realm!?"
The eyes of the prefect of Chen County trembled: "No...impossible..."
At this moment, a general from Chen Jun stepped forward and whispered something into the prefect's ear, and his complexion changed drastically, becoming indescribably ugly.
"You...what do you want to do?" His voice softened a lot.
"Simple."
I smiled slightly: "Give me 10,000 recruits, and from now on, you are not allowed to make things difficult for the people of the Silver Frost Legion, otherwise, this receipt may fly into Feng Xiang's hands at some point, and you don't even have to think about it." If you want to take revenge, unless you think your army can defeat the legendary dragon knight, then you should let your horse take revenge."
For a moment, the face of Chen Jun's prefect was ashen, and he clenched his fists, with a resentful but helpless look on his face.
"Lieutenant General, hand over 10,000 recruits to Mr. Qiyue Liuhuo."
After a few minutes, he flicked his sleeves and said: "Your Excellency, it's easy to leave, and the next official will not send you off."
"No need to give it away, thank you, Lord Prefect!"
I immediately canceled the shadow transformation state, and then took Zhang Lingyue out.
...
Ten minutes later, the two walked out of the county, followed by ten thousand recruits.
"My lord, you are really... you are really wise and brave!"
Zhang Lingyue looked excited: "Just the two of us entered the city, and we managed to accomplish such a big thing once and for all. With that old fox in his hand, I'm afraid he won't dare to make things difficult for our Silver Frost Legion in the future." Already!"
"Um."
I nodded: "The main thing is that Longyu's reputation is great. If it weren't for the reputation of Longyu, I would say that it would be useless to say that Potian would be useless. They would have done it a long time ago and fired us two with ten thousand arrows."
"Hahaha~~~"
Zhang Lingyue smiled heartily, with pride in his eyes, and said, "Following you, sir... is really a great blessing in life!"
I glanced back at him: "I'm also gratified to have a subordinate like you."
"Thank you for your praise!"
Zhang Lingyue took a deep look at me, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, "This subordinate swears that I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life and will never violate it!"
"Well, thanks~~ Let's go back to camp!"
"yes!"
...
Inside the big tent of Tiebu Camp.
