Chapter 50

The result of Chen Hai's negotiation with Ge Tong and Shen Kun is naturally to stay.

Although this is somewhat inconsistent with their previous plans, over the years, everyone knows how difficult it is to meet an officer who can appreciate and reuse poor disciples in the army.

Although Li Xianghai is now demoted to Qianwu captain, it is not difficult to restore the official to his original post. Ge Tong and Shen Kun will be regarded as their direct line by Li Xianghai when they follow Li Xianghai to form a new army.

In the future, even if they don't get along well, Li Xianghai will probably be able to ensure that they serve as deacons in the Taoist academy, or as soldiers and horses and city patrols in prefectures and counties

This is a way out for poor children.

Cultivation, who can guarantee to break through the bottleneck?

Besides, even if we break through the bottleneck and enter a higher level of cultivation, we are doomed to seek birth.

Not to mention ordinary xuanxiu disciples, even those Taoist elixirs and old monsters in the Taoist fetal realm with hundreds of years old Shouyuan still want to seek wealth and power in the rolling world of mortals -- otherwise, why do they practice?

Chen Hai, Ge Tong and Shen Kun have made up their minds, but they are not in a hurry to find Li Xianghai. They need to be more reserved. At least they can't let Li Yulin and Li Hu around Li Xianghai look too lightly.

Li Xianghai wants to form a new army and meet chaiteng with the Yulong house army at the north foot of Yulong mountain. He is too busy to see anyone.

Chen Hai, Ge Tong and Shen Kun had a few more happy days. They probably couldn't guess what Chen Hai thought again. After all, Zhou Jun took the initiative to come to the door:

"Younger martial brother Yao has a better way out. How do elder martial brothers Ge and Shen go and stay?"

Zhou Jun asked Shen Kun and Ge Tong for advice, but his eyes turned on Chen Hai's face.

Ge Tong and Shen Kun were forthright. At this time, they also realized that Chen Hai's position in Zhou Jun's mind was more important than they thought, so they came to the door to ask for advice.

After fighting side by side in Yulong mountain, Chen Hai knew that Zhou Jun's cultivation foundation was much deeper than Ge Tong and Shen Kun.

Ge Tong plans to open up the spiritual sea after cultivating the four main Qi veins. However, looking at Zhou Jun's performance along the way, Chen Hai believes that he has cultivated at least five main Qi veins. Most of them want to open up the spiritual sea on the basis of the six spiritual veins after cultivating the sixth main Qi pulse. His future goal should be to understand the truth of the orifices, not a simple inner disciple.

"I don't know whether war will break out in Wuwei and Hexiang towns, but it won't be wrong at that time," Chen Hai smiled and said, "senior brother Zhou has a choice in mind. Why ask us to stay..."

Zhou Jun smiled and said, "I'll stay, too. I'll ask brother Yao, brother Shen and brother Ge for more support in the future."

Zhou Jun is determined to practice. When he enters the spiritual realm, he can practice in the inner door of Shangqi peak at any time, but he has no clan support. Even if he enters Shangqi peak, he will be tired of lack of cultivation resources.

Even if he has the opportunity to practice in the army after entering the inner gate of the seven peaks, he may not be sent to Yulong mountain.

He also agreed with Chen Hai that the Yulong mountain international gathering was just at that time. With the open contradiction between Wuwei army and Hexiang Town, Yulong mountain will become more and more important in Hexi. Zongmen and Duhu general's house will tilt a lot of resources to Yulong Mountain in the future.

It is the best choice for him to stay in Yulong mountain to occupy a position, then enter the inner door of Shangqi peak to practice, and then return to Yulong mountain.

After the contradiction between Wuwei army and Hexiang army became public, Yulong mountain became a place of popular cloud meeting.

In early July, most of the Wuwei army guarded the general's house and ordered chaiteng and other generals to rectify defense at the north foot of Yulong mountain, while building a huanglongyuan defense plug was a top priority.

Chen Hai and others, together with Li Xianghai, took over one thousand soldiers and two thousand men of the Yulong family army, and then drove directly along the rugged Shixia to huanglongyuan five hundred miles away.

Fearing bloody retaliation from the Wuwei army, the rebels also hurriedly withdrew from huanglongyuan and abandoned tens of thousands of bodies inside and outside Shuangfeng stone stronghold, but their armor and weapons were taken away. In the hot summer, the mountains near huanglongyuan are also sparse, the bodies rot badly, and the air is full of stench.

In order to prevent the breeding of plague, the first thing Chen Hai did was to spend two days cutting down wood and burning the corpses, and then spare their hands to clean up the dilapidated Shuangfeng stone stronghold; Tens of thousands of refugees retreated into Yulong mountain with the rebels, mainly camping on the beach of huanglongyuan, leaving a lot of messy and humble shacks.

It was only then that Chen Hai had the opportunity to really see the mountain lake where it is said that Huanglong was born in ancient times.

In addition to the basin terrain surrounded by mountains around, there is a Lingquan spring at the bottom of huanglongyuan lake.

It is also this Lingquan that ensures that huanglongyuan has not dried up completely in the drought that has lasted for several years, which makes a faint aura enveloped near huanglongyuan.

As a small water source in the depths of Yulong mountain, even after several years of drought, the water area has shrunk by 70% or 80%, but there are thousands of mu of water surface. The deepest place is hundreds of meters deep, and there is a large spiritual spring gushing. It is a rare good place in Yulong mountain.

However, Huang Longyuan is located near the watershed between Hexiang and Wuwei towns. The place is very sensitive. Neither of the two towns occupied this good land in advance. At this time, the Wuwei army is no longer polite.

Shuangfeng stone stronghold is located in the north of huanglongyuan. Duwu general chaiteng is determined to build a sentry in the south of huanglongyuan.

Two or three hundred miles to the south is the jurisdiction of lanchuan County governed by hexiangjun town. The terrain is relatively flat. A sentry base is built in the south of huanglongyuan, overlooking the border of lanchuan county.

Li Xianghai led the main force to take charge of Shuangfeng stone stronghold. In addition to repairing Shuangfeng stone stronghold, he also needed to requisition more civilian men from Yulong mansion and dig a plank road between Shuangfeng stone stronghold and Chenqiao stronghold.

The stone gorge twists and turns in the Yulong mountain. The distance is extremely long and narrow. It can only be passed by foot soldiers. It needs to open up new channels. In addition to passing by cars and horses, it also needs to greatly shorten the distance connecting chenqiaozhai to less than 200 miles.

At the same time, Li Xianghai ordered Li Hu to lead Chen Hai, Shen Kun and Ge Tong into the mountains south of huanglongyuan and transform an abandoned mountain stronghold into a solid outpost.

Although Li Xianghai didn't get the title of Li tinghou, he was the only strong person of Li who had stepped into the territory of Mingqiao, and his status was not under the leader of Li's clan. Therefore, Li Hu, Li Yulin and a group of elite disciples of the clan were transferred to assist him in running the army and stationed in huanglongyuan.

Li Hu and Li Yulin both had accomplishments in the middle of the spiritual realm, and their status in the army was naturally higher than that of Chen Hai.

Huang Longyuan's garrison can be expanded to 2000 soldiers, but even the 1000 soldiers who took over the Yulong mansion army have no foundation for martial arts practice, far from being elite and need hard practice.

Chen Hai didn't want to delay his cultivation. In addition, he was not very familiar with trivial military training, so he transferred Zhao Shan from Mengyi to help him train his soldiers

Chen Hai is the son of the patriarchal clan. Li Xianghai and Li Hu naturally don't care. If Chen Hai can transfer more elite old soldiers from the Chen family, it won't affect their status and can greatly strengthen the combat effectiveness of the garrison, why not?

Chen Hai, as the lowest military attach é, did not know the specific progress of the negotiations between Dadu general's house, the imperial court center and Hexiang army. However, in mid September, Hexiang army directly added Yanchuan camp in Yanchuan house south of Yulong mountain, and officially incorporated and surrendered tens of thousands of rioters in the past.

It can be seen that the two giants in the northwest of Dayan Empire were not happy with the mediation of the imperial court center.

In response to the measures taken by the crane Xiang army, the Dadu general's House issued three new orders in late September.

First, set up a county town in Xinqiao village and moved Yulong prefecture to Xinqiao County; Second, a new Yulong camp was officially established at the same level as Weijiang camp and tieliu camp, and chaiteng was promoted as the Deputy envoy of Yulong camp. He took a temporary photo of Yulong camp and knew Yulong mansion. Later, the Dadu general mansion will transfer more elite soldiers from all departments to Yulong camp; Third, Zhao Ruhui, Zhang Huaiyu and others were ordered to set up Yulongshan huanglongyuan Taoist temple in Yulongshan huanglongyuan

Everything was as Chen Hai had expected, and the Yulong mountain was at the right time.

At the north foot of the Yulong mountain, the Wuwei army set up a new Yulong camp, expanded its armaments on a large scale, added new counties and cities, and set up the huanglongyuan Taoist academy directly under the command of the inner gate of the seven peaks of the taiweizong. In fact, the Hexiang army in the South has been on the highest level of alert as a hostile force like the Western Qiang nationalities in Jinzhou.

No one had expected that taiweizong only wanted to make a quick decision in the first war of Yulong mountain. Two elders of Mingqiao territory, more than 50 inner disciples and more than 700 Taoist soldiers died in this battle and Huang Longyuan died; No one would have thought in advance that the first war of Yulong mountain would directly open the prelude to the confrontation between the two giants of Wuwei army and Hexiang army in the northwest of the Empire

The situation in Yulong Mountain suddenly became tense again.

Under the leadership of Li Hu, Chen Hai, Shen Kun and Ge Tong took care of a thousand people, entered the mountains to the south of huanglongyuan, and chose an abandoned mountain stronghold as a camp for transformation.

This mountain stronghold is also built in the canyon between the two peaks, facing the Shuangfeng stone stronghold from north to South and controlling the access to huanglongyuan. Therefore, in the official military official script, these two stone strongholds are called huanglongyuan South Tianmen stronghold and huanglongyuan North Tianmen stronghold.

Nantianmen stronghold is long from north to South and short from east to west. It covers an area of only 40 to 50 mu, which is not much larger than Chen Hai's pharmacist garden on the main peak at the east foot of tieliuling.

There were more than a hundred dilapidated huts in the stockade. In addition to sorting out six rows of barracks and transforming the abandoned stone temple into a camp office, Chen Hai and his team also leveled an open space in front of the barracks as a school ground for military soldiers to practice.

Although the wall of Nantianmen stronghold is also built with stones, it is also built very steep to prevent mountain thieves, but the wall is thin. The wall of the stronghold, which is 12 or 13 meters high, is only less than two meters thick. After the xuanxiu disciples in the middle and late period of the spirit environment get close to it, they can easily collapse the stronghold wall.

No matter whether zongmen will eventually set up a defensive array in Nantianmen stronghold, Yulong camp requires that the stronghold wall of Nantianmen stronghold should finally be able to withstand the full attack of the strong in the early stage of Mingqiao territory.

The craftsman transferred from Yulong mansion suggested that another stone wall be built and filled with mortar and soil.

In this way, the construction of the village wall has become a large-scale project; In addition, Chen Hai and his team are also responsible for opening up a road connecting north and South Tianmen strongholds on the West Bank of huanglongyuan mountain lake.

By late September, after the new order was issued by the Dadu general's house, Chen Hai and his team had another project task in huanglongyuan, that is, to build the palaces needed by the Taoist Academy in the mountains on both sides of huanglongyuan, as well as the houses and courtyards for the Taoist disciples to live in after they moved in

In addition to huanglongyuan double stronghold, Yulong camp will build eight fortifications in the mountains to the south of huanglongyuan. It is necessary to control the whole Yulong mountain first and look down on Yanchuan mansion in the north of lanchuan county with a condescending attitude.

To this end, in addition to the newly expanded 30000 new troops, chaiteng also recruited 150000 civilian men from Yulong and other prefectures and counties to enter Yulong mountain. Yulong mountain, lying between Wuwei and Hexiang towns, suddenly became a large construction site.
