Chapter 157 - 157: 126 Inborn Emperor_3

One who sticks his head out gets shot, Li Xiong has become emperor and even broken through the innate realm.

But his actions will undoubtedly trigger Da Yue’s court’s furious retaliation.

Although many places in the world of Da Yue have been beaten up.

Even relying on the remaining power, annihilating a Xi Shu rebel is not difficult at all.

As for the Inborn realm?

Not to mention anything else, there is an Inborn Grandmaster lurking in Dongting Prefecture, right?

It’s worth noting that the Inborn official of the prefecture is also one of the reasons Lu Yuan doesn’t dare to rebel.

Because it’s too close.

If he dares to rebel, the official might just come over the next day and take his head off amidst thousands of troops.

Don’t doubt the power of an Inborn Grandmaster who could or could not achieve this point.

Too many unlucky people have died because of this in the past, and Lu Yuan doesn’t want to be the next example to warn others.

As various thoughts were racing through his mind, Cui Changqing on the side continued, “With the fall of the Xichuan Prefecture, we Dongting Prefecture now face the Shu Thieves directly. So, the Prefect ordered that all the local militias should be organized and trained immediately to defend the territory. So I decided, in addition to the originally recruited 1,000 prefecture soldiers, to

recruit G.OOO more village braves in Fli C.ity. and each of the other counties will

also recruit 1,000. Including the prefecture soldiers, a total of 15,000 people can be gathered.

Apart from the prefecture soldiers, these village braves should work as civilians during farming and as soldiers during leisure time, never ceasing their training and guarding their homes.

You are the commander here, the chief of the military officials, so you should be responsible for this matter.”

It seems that the establishment of Xi Shu has indeed put a lot of pressure and shock on this Prefect. At this time, he has even changed his conservative style of the past and is aggressively recruiting so many soldiers.

Even though they are only peasant soldiers, for a small prefecture with a population of only over 200,000, the recruitment of 15,000 people at once is a huge burden.

As for this, Lu Yuan naturally has no objections and gladly agrees, “No problem, I will take care of this.”

As the commander, the more soldiers he has in the prefecture, the stronger his strength and the greater his power.

As for the highest military and political officer of the prefecture being Cui Changqing, who has nominal control over all the soldiers and horses while he is only a subordinate? It’s not a problem.

A mere civil official, when the time comes to issue orders, whether the army will execute or not still depends on his own approval as the commander, right? Of course, if he really disobeys the order, it would be almost like rebelling.

Because of Sun Siwen’s relationship, the relationship between Lu Yuan and Cui Changqing is harmonious, and he will not do so unless it is necessary.

However, after accepting the order, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Cui, apart from our prefecture, do all the other prefectures within the jurisdiction also have to recruit village braves?”

Cui Changqing nodded, “That’s right. The prefect decided to recruit a total of 200,000 troops in the ten prefectures to resist the invasion of Shu Thieves and also to eliminate the rebellion in the future.”

200,000 troops…

Hearing this number, Lu Yuan fell silent and became even more determined to be a good and loyal official to the court.

Just in Dongting prefecture alone, there are 200,000 troops.

Facing such a scale, even if he fully controls the 15,000 troops of Shaoyang Prefecture, it would still not be enough to make much of a difference.

Not to mention, more imperial troops would be dispatched later, making it even more terrifying.

Facing the already infuriated court…

He really couldn’t afford to provoke it.

Just by comparing the strength of the two sides, Lu Yuan had already given up.

How wonderful would it be if the world were peaceful? Why think of rebelling all the time?

As a good official who cares about the well-being of the people, he felt it necessary to contribute to the stability of the locality.

While Lu Yuan was determined to be a good official and began to actively train soldiers, his good apprentice had also made a decision that would impact his life.

Dongting Prefecture, Tianmen Prefecture.

The surging great river, like a galloping dragon, flows eastward without stopping.

A tower ship was drifting on the great river, looming in the mist.

Zhou Qing sat on the deck at the bow of the ship, took out a rough cloth, and wiped the sword in his hand. After wiping it twice, he threw away the blood-stained cloth and sheathed the sword.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, carrying with it the strong smell of blood.

On the distant deck, scattered corpses laid on the ground, and the large amount of blood had dyed the deck red.

However, Zhou Qing remained unfazed, his expression calm. He just turned his head and asked the person sitting next to him, “Brother Guo, are you sure you want to go back to Xichuan?”

The man next to him was named Guo Yunshan, a young man in his twenties dressed in blue, with a handsome appearance. However, his expression was a bit bitter and gloomy at the moment, making his temperament greatly diminished.

Upon hearing the inquiry, he nodded and said, “Yes, I want to go back.”

Zhou Qing frowned and said, “Now that Xichuan has been captured by the Shu Thieves, and their Emperor Li Xiong is the sworn enemy who destroyed your entire family. Going back to Xichuan now and entering his territory is like entering a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair. If you are discovered, you will face certain death.”

His newly-acquainted friend these past days was from a famous martial arts family in Xichuan Prefecture, a direct descendant of the Yuzhong Guo Family.

With such a background, Guo Yunshan was supposed to be a prodigy of the Jianghu world.

However, all of that changed with the Qiang people’s rebellion three years ago.

As Lu Yuan had guessed.

Li Xiong’s ability to break through the innate realm in such a short period was achieved by plundering the resources of various martial arts families and sects and accumulating them.

The Yuzhong Guo Family, being a martial arts family, had powerful inheritance techniques, but more importantly, their family had controlled the Divine Blood Variant called Qingxue Spirit Snake for generations.

With this spirit snake, the Guo Family could produce geniuses in generation after generation, ensuring that the family would never lack top-notch experts and maintain their wealth for thousands of years.

But this very spirit snake became the fuse for the downfall of the Guo Family when the order was broken and rebels attacked.

Because the Emperor of the Shu Thieves, Li Xiong, came to their door asking for it..
