Qing Jun smiled and said, "Great! You are indeed a good man of Qing! Since General Xin has such great ambitions, I will do my best to cooperate with him! Go ahead and rest assured. Even if you fail, I will never blame you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xin Zhi was grateful on the surface, but he saw through everything in his heart. If he failed, he would definitely take the blame for Qing Jun. However, in order to leave a name in history, everything is worth it!
Some officials of the Qing Kingdom lowered their heads slightly and sighed in their hearts that the King of Qing was becoming less and less responsible. In the past, the King of Qing was so high-spirited and ambitious, but in recent years he was influenced by the Wu Kingdom and Fang Yun and became more cautious and perfect. In many aspects, he was even worse than the Queen Mother of the Jing Kingdom.
Ao Huang had a gloomy face, thinking that he must obstruct the trade between the East China Sea Dragon Palace and the Qing Kingdom in the future. From the king to the officials, no one in the Qing Kingdom is a good person. Look at the Queen Mother of the Jing Kingdom, she didn't blame him for stealing the night pearl from her palace.
Ao Huang immediately looked around the palace, but finally found that there was nothing there.
There are two dragon thrones placed side by side in the main hall.
Qing Jun turned his head to look at Fang Yun and smiled, "Fang Xusheng, General Xin is willing to represent the Qing Kingdom and stake an entire prefecture. I wonder if Fang Xusheng dares to accept the challenge?"
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Then I will high-five with Lord Qing and swear an oath that as long as I defeat General Xin, this battle will determine the ownership of the Ten Prefectures!"
"good!"
Qingjun and Fang Yun raised their hands together, and finally clashed their palms together.
The two were clearly just high-fiving each other in a normal manner, but all the officials, including the great scholar, lowered their heads slightly.
The applause of the two people seemed to suddenly have a strange power, the sound was like the collapse of mountains, but also full of vitality, like the spring thunder awakening the hibernation.
This sound began to spread in all directions, with holy temples in various places as transit points.
Soon, everyone in Qing and Jing heard the sound of the two people clapping their hands, and the sound was also heard in the Holy Courtyard.
Everyone who heard the voice naturally knew that Fang Yun was going to have a military confrontation with Xin Zhi to decide the ownership of the prefecture.
Most of the scholars in Qing State were very happy, while most of the scholars in Jing State were worried, because the competition was a battle of military tactics, and Xin Zhi had at least an 80% chance of winning!
But the non-literate people in the two countries were just the opposite. The people of Qing had long been intimidated by Fang Yun's literary reputation and were afraid of failure, while the people of Jing had blind confidence in Fang Yun and believed that Fang Yun would definitely win.
In the hall, Fang Yun said: "In this case, I would like to ask the two countries' ministers of literature to be witnesses and guide me to communicate with General Xin in the Holy Temple. Connect to Sun Tzu's literary world and enter the Thirteen Cloud Ladders of the Military Strategy."
Jiang Hechuan bowed and said, "Master Xusheng, this battle is similar to the literary war of one country. It can be carried out in a closed manner, or it can be open to the public. We can also invite everyone to watch the battle through the literary list."
Fang Yun said: "Open up, no need to hide. What do you think, General Xin?"
"I second the motion." Xin Zhi said.
"Okay, then let's start the military battle here. After that, we'll go to the Holy Temple for the literary battle."
Jiang Hechuan finished speaking. He looked at Qing Guowen, and they both took out their official seals at the same time and communicated with the Holy Temple through their minds.
Not far away, the holy temple in the center of Baling City suddenly shook slightly, and then a faint transparent shock wave spread in all directions. Then the holy temple projected a ball of white light, which turned into a huge hemispherical cover that fell on the palace hall, protecting everyone inside.
Two rays of light like water fell down, and Fang Yun and Xin Zhi were held up by the egg-shaped shield and suspended in the air. The egg-shaped shield seemed to be filled with water-like liquid, making the two of them feel like they were wandering in the sea. They naturally closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Two milky white rays of light went straight into the center of Fang Yun and Xin Zhi’s eyebrows.
Some scholars reveal pride in sending their bodies into the literary world or other places, which is time-consuming and laborious, but this kind of "talent projection" can allow people's thoughts to enter many places and consume only a little talent.
The human race did not originally master this unique power, but the saints of the human race studied the Heavenly Tree, gathered the strength of hundreds of schools, and finally researched the power of talent projection.
This is where the human race is stronger than the monsters, and it is also one of the sources of the monsters' fear. The monsters have been in contact with the Heavenly Tree for countless tens of thousands of years, but have not yet been able to research any related holy ways.
In addition to the projection of talent, there is also the rarer "descent of the literary world", which can usually only occur under special circumstances and requires the personal appearance of a semi-saint to use it.
Only through the literary list could scholars see the display of talent, at least for those who passed the imperial examinations.
If the literary world comes, anyone with talent can watch near the temple.
If it weren't a major event at the level of the Ten Nations, the Holy Academy would not form a light curtain for everyone in the Ten Nations to see, because it consumes too much talent. Usually, this would only happen during the annual Ten Nations Competition.
Fang Yun felt drowsy and fell into a dream. He didn't know how long it had been when he suddenly felt his body getting cold. He opened his eyes hastily and found himself in a military tent with a table in front of him and two rows of officials in front of him. The sunlight was shining brightly at the entrance of the tent.
The two guards stood facing each other at the door of the tent with resolute expressions.
Outside the door stood many lower-ranking officers.
Fang Yun looked down and found that he was still wearing the Jinshi uniform, but he had an extra layer of standard golden armor on the outside. There was a logo on the armor, which made Fang Yun realize that he was already a third-rank governor.
A third-rank governor is the highest military commander in a state, commanding at least 30,000 officers and soldiers, and at most 50,000.
Fang Yun had experienced many talent and martial arts performances, and even knew that the Thirteen Ladders of Military Strategists were actually imitating the talent and martial arts performances, so he calmed down immediately.
Fang Yun glanced at the officials, memorizing their faces and official uniforms, and said in a deep voice, "Go up to the tent and report for duty!"
Then the nearest general stood up, straightened his body, held his head high, and said loudly, "Wang Yinglu, the fourth-rank general of the Mingshan Army who suppresses the rebellion, greets the Grand Commander!"
Wang Yinglu sat down after he finished speaking, and the next person stood up and said loudly: "Su Yuankui, the fourth-rank general of the Hongshan Army, greets the Grand Commandant!"
"Jia Lan, the fourth-rank general of the Luoshan Army, greets the Grand Commander."
"Xue Yue, a fourth-rank military officer from the Zhenjun Army, meets the Grand Commander."
…
Fang Yun listened quietly to everyone's self-introductions. Military officers from the fourth rank to the sixth rank were all in the tent, and all those with the prefix "Zhenjun" were civilian officials in the army. They did not participate in combat, but were responsible for various military affairs.
Fang Yun knew the official system of the human race very well. Five hundred people formed a battalion, three thousand people formed a guard, ten thousand people formed an army, thirty to fifty thousand people formed a large army, and those above fifty thousand were generally guard troops.
Through the number and positions of these officials, Fang Yun found out that he had three armies of about 10,000 people under his command, all named after local mountains. The three fourth-rank generals were also titled generals. Each army had a fifth-rank deputy general and a sixth-rank garrison commander.
The three titled generals were all Hanlin.
In addition to the three armies, he also had a 5,000-man personal guard led by a fifth-rank general who was a Jinshi.
Each of the three armies is divided into three guards, each guard has 3,000 men, and the sixth-rank guard commanders are all Jinshi.
Each guard had six battalions, each with 500 men. The battalion commanders were of the seventh rank, mostly Juren, and some young Jinshi. However, these battalion commanders were all outside the main tent.
Fang Yun quickly made a statistic. He had 35,000 soldiers available for battle, including three Hanlin scholars, 37 Jinshi scholars, more than 200 Juren scholars, and no need to count Xiucai and Tongsheng scholars. (To be continued...)
