Tolstoy secretly screamed that it was not good, since Zhang Baoxiang and the others knew about the news of Yi Jing leaving the city. All the soldiers of the Luo City Spirit Legion must have known about it.
If this continues, it is very likely that the morale of the army will be shaken, you know this army. But Yi Jing founded and grew it by himself. The army can do without Tolstoy, but it cannot do without Yi Jing.
Branches and leaves are easy to break, but souls are hard to leave. Tolstoy stood up and said with a smile, "Brother Zhang, there is no need to worry. I know that Mr. Yi. With his shrewdness and sophistication, he might have become a big player in the Beicheng Legion." It’s a lot of eating and drinking.”
"Which brat is talking bad about me again? Haha."
Two figures stood at the entrance of the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, and behind them, another person followed.
The person who walked in side by side with Yi Jing was Ba Fengnan. And standing behind them was the commander-in-chief, Lord Zhan Guan.
Thor and Zhang Baoxiang were immediately overjoyed and walked towards the door.
Zhang Baoxiang immediately asked excitedly, "Lord City Lord, you have finally returned to the city! What does Duan Zuozhang have to say?"
Yi Jing took the cup of fragrant tea handed over by Tolstoy, took a sip, put down the cup and lay comfortably on the chair, saying, "Of course I agree to cooperate and fight against the demonic army with us. After some sugar-coating from me Under the indiscriminate bombardment of artillery shells, the old boy Duan Zuozhang and his commanders surrendered one after another. The two sides have now reached a consensus and formed an alliance. However, we have already had the intention of forming an alliance. After preparation in advance, The two sides hit it off immediately. From now on, when you see the Wuhun Guards in Beidi City, you will become brothers."
"Haha." Everyone laughed contentedly, and Zhang Baoxiang suddenly said with some confusion, "In this case, what should I do with the spies of the Beicheng Legion that I caught in my hands? Since the two sides are in an alliance, they must not be able to use them anymore. They beheaded them. Otherwise, it would damage the relationship between the two families. It would be detrimental to cooperation."
Yi Jing nodded and said, "You are right. No matter how many these people there are or how famous they are. No matter how high their fighting skills are, we will let them all go. And they must eat and drink well before they leave the city." Give them a meal."
Zhan Guan said with some emotion, "Yesterday we were still fighting against each other, dead and alive enemies. Today, these prisoners of war suddenly turned around, and the old hens turned into ducks and became friendly forces. It's really ironic."
Tolstoy thought thoughtfully and said, "This is called political strategy. In order to rule a country, a king must be shameless, make friends far and near, and form alliances to fight against evil. There are only permanent interests in the world, but no permanent friends. That's all. The overlord who divided the world and divided the Wuhun Continent into countless territories."
Yi Jing showed a strange expression, "Young Master Tuo, are you talking about me? You know, I am now called the Lord of City Yi by my friends in the world. Wouldn't it be that I have also become an old rich man, separatist and king?"
"Haha!" There was another burst of laughter, and Zhang Baoxiang said still a little worried, "You can let people go, but that old boy Duan Zuozhang is a subordinate of the evil Lord Sheng Zhixuan. The evil Lord Sheng Zhixuan is absolutely not willing to see it. Our Luo City martial arts army is getting bigger step by step. And Duan Zuozhang is by no means an overlord who keeps his word. We can only believe 50% of his words at most, and we have to be careful about the other 50%."
Yi Jing nodded and said, "Brother Baoxiang is right, so no matter how good the situation in front of us looks, we have to be prepared in case someone suddenly turns against us, right?"
Zhan Guan smiled and said, "If the Lord of the City can make multiple preparations and be prepared for danger in times of peace, then we can rest assured. Please ask for instructions and act with Brother Baoxiang. First, arrange the internal agents of the Demon Army Detective Horse and the Demon Queen Zhu Yuyan in the city. We will clear them all out, then open the city and fight to the death with the demonic army, I don’t know what the city lord wants.”
Yi Jing glanced at Ba Fengnan, who had never spoken, and said, "Brother Ba, what do you think?"
Only Ba Fengnan knew why he asked this question, and said calmly, "Not long after you left the city the night before yesterday, Mo Yin Lian had already met me quietly on the city tower."
Thor said in shock, "Why didn't I hear you talk about this matter?"
Ba Fengnan said with sharp eyes, "She did want to assassinate me at that time, but I have a sword in the sky in someone's hand. How can I be a vegetarian? When she saw that the assassination failed, she changed to chatting. Until Tuo Shao and She left when I handed over my shift. I didn't stop her."
Zhang Baoxiang said in confusion, "Why didn't Mr. Ba Feng raise a warning? Once the warning was given, we would have the strength in numbers, and maybe we could work together to capture and kill the witch."
Yi Jing shook his head slowly and said, "It's useless. If Mo Yin Lian wasn't absolutely sure, she would never reveal her identity easily. The only thing that is certain now is that she is still in the city. We must To dig her out, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find the secret lair of the Demon Sect in the city and destroy it. Otherwise, the Luo City Spirit Legion will be restrained no matter what big moves they make."
Although Tian'an City is large, the main urban areas are concentrated in the southeastern urban area between the southeast and northwest.
As for the northwest urban area, because it is located in the desert, there is a "horse racing ranch" in the northern suburbs. The owner of the ranch is a beauty. At that time, the gentry in Ancheng expressed their allegiance to Yi Jing. Only the owner of this ranch has not arrived.
At this moment, all the places where the suspicious Demon Sect was hiding in the southeastern city had been searched, but no results were found.
Therefore, Zhang Baoxiang, Zhan Guan and other commanders finally set their sights on Happy Horse Ranch.
"It seems that we have to go to Happy Horse Ranch."
"But Lord City Lord, that Lord Wen is a fierce beauty. Do you know her?"
Yi Jing chuckled and said, "No need to know each other, Mr. Tuo. I'm sure that when the three of us brothers arrived at Tianlong Temple that day, the woman in black who appeared secretly and suddenly disappeared was the owner of the Happy Horse Ranch."
Both Bafengnan and Thor cast surprised glances at him, as if asking him why he made this judgment.
Yi Jing explained, "I made a judgment based on her equestrian skills. This woman's equestrian skills are simply breathtaking. At the same time, we had a fierce fight with He Hongguang. This woman appeared in military uniform and was beaten by several Demon Sect masters. She was under siege. However, she was able to calmly escape on horseback in the face of numerous crises. Even the arrow formation led by the demon army could not help her, so she used her superb equestrian skills to evade. Finally, she left Tianlong Temple. Therefore, I dare to say that she must be a Tianshan horse racer. Ranch owner."
Tolstoy frowned and said, "If it is really her, then the situation will be bad. Mo Yin Lianru is hiding near the pasture. She must have bad intentions, bad."
As soon as Tolstoy and Ba Fengnan made eye contact, everyone felt cold. Yi Jing immediately asked Zhang Baoxiang, "Baoxiang, are there any shortages of war horses recently supplied to Tian'an City from Paoma Ranch?"
"What's the shortage? Since our army and the demon army fought outside the city, the horse market in Tianan City has basically not recovered. I thought it was caused by the war. I thought that as long as Mr. Chen restores the order, the horse market and other Just like a market, it will soon become prosperous. Who knew it would not be like this? Could it be said?"
His heart tightened, and he suddenly didn't dare to say the rest.
Yi Jing pinched his nose and immediately said to Tolstoy, "Master Tolstoy, please discuss it with Brother Ba Feng. See who can defend the city. Happy Horse Ranch. It must not become a fortress for the Demon Sect to counterattack our army. ."
Tolstoy knew that the matter was of great importance and immediately said to Zhan Guan, "Lord Zhan Guan."
"My subordinate is here."
"You are the elite of our army. The city lord and I have to rush to the Happy Horse Ranch early tomorrow morning. You and Brother Ba Feng must guard the front line of the East City. If there is any situation, please report it at any time."
Ba Fengnan and Zhan Guan both agreed that it was Ye Yijing who held a banquet in the city lord's palace, got drunk with all the leaders, and had a good sleep.
Happy Horse Ranch occupies almost half of the geographical space in the northwest of Tian'an City, which is equivalent to the size of 10,000 football fields. All the war horses raised there are used to supply the surrounding areas of Tianan City. It has been continuously providing logistical support to the forces on Wuhun Continent and has strong strength.
When Yi Jing and Tolstoy drove from the Cross Slope Desert to the ranch, they had been riding for four or five hours continuously. Being tired and exhausted, Tolstoy went nearby to get food, while Yi Jing sat down on the hillside, untied his shirt, and let the wind blow, feeling quite unhappy for a while.
"Hmm, hahaha! Yi Jing, do you still remember my blood sword ancestor?"
Yi Jing was slightly startled and looked around on the hillside. The mountain was covered with dense jungle, and the trees were swaying constantly when the wind blew. There are lush wild grasses on the mountain road, even if there is a figure hidden among them. It is extremely difficult to find without careful searching.
"Ancestor of the Blood Sword? This name is so familiar. I seem to have heard it somewhere, but why can't I remember it all at once?"
When Yi Jing was having doubts, an old man with a celestial spirit suddenly appeared on a huge rock in front of him.
The old man was dressed in a white robe from top to bottom, and he indeed looked a bit like an outsider.
There was a gold girdle around his head, with a gem inlaid in the middle. The broad robe fell from his shoulders, and the two huge sleeves extended to the soles of his feet. If it weren't for the extremely unfriendly color on his face, Yi Jing would have thought that the other person was just a passing martial artist.
Yi Jing has no other skills, but he is an expert among experts and an expert among experts when it comes to observing words and emotions.
Seeing this man's unkind expression, he secretly wondered whether he had offended such a prominent figure before. He immediately asked tentatively, "Ancestor Blood Sword, you are not dead yet."
"Humph, thanks to you, not only did I not die in the battle in Luo City. Instead, I met an outsider who saved me and taught me my superior magical skills. This time, you fell into my lap. In the hands of the Blood Sword Ancestor. I will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives and suffer the punishment of Lingchi’s death. I will make your life worse than death. I will kill you with 10,000 knives."
