This time, everything was very smooth, and in the blink of an eye, more than five months had passed. During these five months, the disciples of the Chen Mansion had finally built the main body of Leiyun City.
Over the past five months, Chen Lei has been practicing and pondering the Crazy Thunder Dragon Formation, and the Crazy Thunder Dragon Formation has gradually taken shape.
The Crazy Thunder Dragon Formation, with the two cities of Leiyun City and Kuangtao City as the core of the formation, draws on the abundant water power of the entire Kuanglan River and the endless thundercloud power above Leiyun City to form the power and energy of the formation.
Among them, the water force is mainly for defense, the thunder force is mainly for attack, and of course, the most powerful is the fusion of thunder and water, which is even more powerful.
Of course, this refers to the power that can be exerted after the Crazy Thunder Black Dragon Formation is set up. Now, Chen Lei has only set up the Black Dragon Formation and the Crazy Thunder Formation in Kuangtao City and Leiyun City. It is still a long way from the complete world-class Crazy Thunder Black Dragon Formation.
Setting up the heaven and earth level Crazy Thunder Dragon Formation is an extremely time-consuming and lengthy process. It is impossible for Chen Lei to spend all his time here.
From now on, he will leave all the tasks of arranging and perfecting the formation to Chen Fan. If two heaven-and-earth-level formations can be arranged, it will also be of great benefit to Chen Fan's formation cultivation.
In the past five months, Chen Tangxuan and others have not been idle. Instead, they have taken mercenaries such as Yang Hu to start sweeping cities one by one.
The fiefdom of the Chen family that Chen Lei exchanged now has five cities and thirteen counties, covering an area of thousands of kilometers, with a large population and many powerful people. The Chen family used to be just a small force in Qingyang Town, but now it controls five cities and thirteen counties, which is difficult to fully control.
There are five major families in Qingyang Town alone, not to mention how many powerful forces there are in the thirteen counties and five cities.
Each of these powerful forces has a deep background, many disciples, and is also inextricably linked to the seven major sects and the royal family. It is basically not an easy task to make these forces surrender and obey the orders of the Chen Mansion.
However, Chen Tangxuan did have some tricks up his sleeve. Relying on more than 20,000 mercenaries led by Yang Hu and others, as well as thousands of elite disciples from the Chen Mansion, he actually conquered one county after another, one city after another, and destroyed all those who refused to submit.
If someone is willing to surrender, the tribe's military force will be restricted within a certain range to ensure that there will be no force that can threaten the Chen Mansion.
Naturally, Chen Tangxuan's actions caused a bloody storm. Most forces were unwilling to submit to the Chen family, so they naturally started fighting.
However, the power of the Chen Mansion is now expanding rapidly, and with the addition of 20,000 mercenaries who have retired from the battlefields of foreign races, no single force can contend with it.
If the various forces and families in the five cities and thirteen counties unite, the Chen family will naturally be no match for them.
But who is Chen Tangxuan? He is a man of extraordinary strategy. How could he give these people a chance to unite? Before these families and forces could react, Chen Tangxuan and his men had already fought and eliminated all the forces that might form an alliance, and finally took control of the entire Chen family's territory, including five cities and thirteen counties.
There may be some bloodshed in this process, but Chen Tangxuan's methods were not too harsh. He did not kill those who surrendered. Only those who resisted strongly were ruthlessly killed.
