Chapter 1212: Logistics
After clicking on the page, I was connected to a red post on the forums. As expected, it was Ji Yuan--
Top (Posted by: Ji Yuan): Hybrid Demon Territory, personally witnessed Xiao Yao Zi Zai challenging Azure!
After which, was the content of the post. It was about Ji Yuan being courageous and passing through the Ghostly Rope Bridge. He managed to sneak past many Lamp Zombies and Demon Hall Cavalries. In the end, he saw Azure and me fighting. Apart from that was me fighting Pearl. Especially when Pearl used her purple lightning attack to light up the sky, it looked quite majestic!
I looked at the post and saw that over 300 thousand people had reposted it. Maybe players were really bored so this post got very popular. I glanced and knew that 25% were praising me for being bold, 25% for saying I was asking for death, 30% asking to add me and the rest asked what happened in the end. Ji Yuan naturally didn't know as he died before me. As for the last 10%, they were just increasing their activity value.
...
At this point, the data was downloaded and I got online!
"Shua!"
I appeared in Tian Ling City and got a notification right away. The Executor reminded me that in 7 minutes there would be an important meeting and demanded that I had to attend. Of course, if I wasn't online then it would be a whole different matter. They probably wouldn't wait for me and the game will just progress on its own.
I summoned Mei'er and rode on her back. Although Mei'er was a beautiful female dragon but she was still the daughter of the dragon god. Her body was really majestic and when I jumped on, a red flag appeared behind me. This was the effect of Flag of the Dragon. I was in a public mode and all players could enjoy the buff effects.
I dashed into the palace and the guards bowed respectfully. I didn't say much and just rode Mei'er into the palace before putting her into my pet space. It was best if Lochlan and the generals didn't see her or it would be too shocking.
"The Executor is here!" A messager official shouted.
I stepped into the hall and walked to the front of the area closest to Lochlan. Lochlan smiled and nodded, "Master Li you are here!"
I said, "En your majesty, did something happen for you to call all of us?"
"Yes."
Lochlan saw that most people were here so he waved his sleeves, "Then let's begin. What do you think about Nine Heavens City's alliance contract?"
"What is going on?" I asked.
Heaven Barrier Army's Lin Qiong cupped his fist, "The Executor a few days ago the Nine Heavens City's emperor sent an envoy over and hopes to sign an alliance to hunt Hybrid Demons. They have built a stronghold in the Territory of the Wild Dragon Tribe and there are a million troops there. They hope we send troops to aid them and then we can collect the north and wipe out all the hybrid demons."
I frowned, "Where is the envoy, you can kill him already."
Lochlan was shocked, "Why Master Li?"
I said, "Very simple, Azure is out and he made 7 new commanders lords. Now there are many demons from hell and we can only defend ourselves. If we attack, we will end up in a terrible state. Nine Heavens City has Fire God Gaia which is why they dare to build a stronghold there. If we head over,
we will end up dead."
Guards General Situ Xin cupped his fists, "I agree."
Zhu Hai laughed coldly, "I heard that Suiding Duke Li Xiao Yao is very safe and it really is the case. Tian Ling City has gained troops from Moon City, Flaming Cloud City and Jiu Li City and we have 2.2 million troops. We have built Dragon Crystal Cannons and Flame Dragon Cannons and trained the soldiers well. Now we still need to wait for Hybrid Demon Territory to attack us. The Executor has life been too easy that you have lost your will to fight?"
I looked at him coldly, "Ocean Duke thinks too much."
Lochlan stood up, "Master Li, Princess Pearl's tomb has been attacked, do you know about that?"
"I met Pearl, I also saw Xu Yan who had died." I was really calm but everyone present was shocked.
Fire Dragon Army's Tan Taiyu gulped, "Did The Executor really see the princess?"
"Not really..."
I said, "Her body has been occupied and there is another soul in it. But she is still very intelligent and decisive. This was the reason why the adventurers were nearly wiped out by them. If even adventurers had lost, how much better will the empire's army be?"
Lochlan was shocked, "Master Li... You have entered the Hybrid Demon Territory?"
"Yes." I looked at the young ruler, "I entered Storm Hell and met Pearl and Azure. I nearly died. The Hybrid Demon Territory is much stronger than previously so I suggest not to send troops to Nine Heavens City's stronghold or we will be affected."
Lochlan nodded, "I will follow Master Li's orders."
Zhu Hai was unhappy and said, "Your Majesty, how can Li Xiao Yao decide everything. Your Majesty, are you the ruler, or is he?"
I was furious. I held my sword handle and wanted to slice his head off.
Shao Shiyang said too, "Right Your Majesty, Tian Ling Empire has millions of troops but we are just an empire. We need more allies. Nine Heavens City has food and tools so why not ally with them to help them out? Since The Executor thinks Hybrid Demon Territory is too strong, shouldn't we be more united?"
Earth Ocean Army's Qin Yi cupped his fist, "I agree with general Shao Shiyang. Although Li Xiao Yao is wise but he might not know everything if not the adventurer army wouldn't have lost."
The moment he said that, Drunken Spear was unhappy. He pointed his spear at Qin Yi, "what are you saying. What does that have to do with Li Xiao Yao? Stop blaming people!"
Qin Yi raged, "General Zhou is also an empire's general, how can you say such things about me!?"
Lochlan raised his hand and said firmly, "Stop fighting. Since that is the case then I shall give the order!"
Lochlan held his sword and pulled it out, "We can't let Nine Heavens City fight alone but we can't send too many troops in. I have decided for General Shao Shiyang to lead 130 thousand Fire Rhino Army troops over. Apart from that Baili Ning will lead 120 thousand Changfeng ARmy over. Tian Ling City will send 250 thousand troops so that would be good enough to uphold our alliance with Nine Heavens City. Send troops, Royal Army will be in charge of grain and tools."
Shao Shiyang and Baili Ning cupped their fists, "Your Majesty!"
However, there was someone grumbling and it was Han Yuan. This fellow was unhappy, "In terms of strength and skill, how is Royal Army any weaker than your Fire Rhino Army. Why are we in charge of logistics? Your Majesty, I can't accept this!"
I was speechless and said coldly, "Han Yuan shut up, it is not your place to speak!"
Han Yuan might not allow others to scold him but when I said that, he was speechless. Long Xing, Xiao Lie and Xia Ye laughed and disturbed Han Yuan. It was as if they really didn't mind him just tearing the palace down.
I cupped my fist towards Lochlan and said apologetically, "Your Majesty, Han Yuan is disrespectful but for all his courageous help, please don't blame him for this. "
Lochlan laughed, "Master Li, I have sought help from General Han on spears and riding so he is half my master. Why would I blame him? Moreover, I know how direct and honest he is. I planned this purposely. Once Fire Rhino Army and Changfeng Army fail, Royal Army must assist. I think Master Li knows that right?"
Of course, I knew. Fire Rhino Army and Changfeng Army weren't their match so Royal Army had to clean their ass. But that was good, at least we didn't need to lead. After Royal Army reached 150 thousand we stopped expanding and instead strengthened our training. Now our 150 thousand were all elites, ten thousand of them had Saint Hall Cavalry strength. I had to save them as they were all precious to me. Any losses would make my heart pained.
Han Yuan definitely didn't understand all that but Xia Ye and Xiao Lie did.
...
I gave Han Yuan and the others instructions and they moved the Royal Army to take charge of grain and tools. I followed Dancing Forest and Lin Wan Er to hunt the patch. In 20 minutes we went through A1 and then 24 minutes for A2. We spent three hours getting to S1 and it was still quite easy. Before 2 am we reached S3 and then we went offline. After which would be a little tough so I wanted to adjust my biological clock and then try after being rested.
