The Divine Arms Battalion was located in a drill ground north of the Saint Capital. It occupied an area of seven thousand mu and had strict rules. Ordinary people were not allowed to approach it.
Because this was the territory of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming King. The Divine Arms Battalion and the Guanning Iron Cavalry were known as the two trump cards of Zhu Yuanzhang's personal army. They fought against the Mongol Empire and the Jurchen Empire, winning every battle.
Ye QingChen's arrival immediately caused a commotion.
Li Wenzhong, the commander of the Divine Arms Battalion, had a gloomy expression on his face. However, he didn't dare to stop Ye QingChen in the face of the emperor's order. He could only respectfully invite Ye QingChen into the Military Conference Hall.
"Bring me the name list of all the generals in the Divine Arms Battalion. If you are missing one person, I will punish you for deceiving the emperor!”
Ye QingChen sat on the main seat and spoke in a dignified manner.
"Yes, sir." Li Wenzhong accepted the order and left, obediently handing over the names of all the generals.
Emperor Xuanyuan was the most powerful man in the world. With his personal order, even Zhu Yuanzhang himself did not dare to disobey, let alone Li Wenzhong.
Ye QingChen nodded his head in satisfaction and flipped through the first book.
The Divine Arms Battalion was not as elite as Liu Che's Tiger Troop, but they had the advantage in numbers. There were 20,000 soldiers and they were divided into five divisions and 20 troops. Each division had four troops and was led by a commandant. Each troop had 1,000 soldiers and was led by a lieutenant.
Ye QingChen looked around and suddenly, a name entered his eyes.
The third part of the Divine Arms Battalion, the first song, the captain of the military academy, Qi Jiguang!
Ye QingChen naturally recognized this famous general who fought against the Japanese pirates. It was obvious that he had not been discovered by Zhu Yuanzhang. Otherwise, he would not have only been a small lieutenant.
Ye QingChen remained calm and composed. He casually drew out five songs and said,"This king wants these five troops.”
"What?!" Li Wenzhong's eyes widened. The Five Troops had five thousand men, which was a quarter of the Divine Arms Battalion's strength. It would definitely weaken the Divine Arms Battalion's combat strength.
" You dare to disobey my order?" Ye QingChen said coldly.”
"I don't dare. I'll go down and mobilize the troops.”
Li Wenzhong immediately half-knelt and apologized, then quickly retreated.
He naturally didn't dare to make such a big decision. After he left, he immediately sent a message to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang was currently having his lunch. When he learned that Ye QingChen was going to mobilize five thousand Divine Arms soldiers, his face turned green with anger. He spat out the rice in his mouth and ran out without even putting on his shoes.
" Ye QingChen, how dare you, how dare you…" Zhu Yuanzhang was running as he muttered in his heart, his anger burning the nine heavens.
When they arrived at the Divine Arms Battalion, Ye QingChen happened to walk out.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately rushed forward and said angrily,"Ninth Brother, how dare you!"
Ye QingChen stopped in his tracks and smiled." So it's my eighth brother. I have an imperial edict with me, so it's inconvenient for me to bow. I hope brother can forgive me."”
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't care less about these trifles. He looked through the crack in the door and saw that there were indeed five troops following behind him. His expression became even uglier.
"Ninth Brother, what do you mean by this? Why did you take away the Divine Arms Battalion?”Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
"The Embroidered Uniform Guard has just been established and needs to expand its manpower.”As Ye QingChen spoke, he flashed the imperial edict.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that his nose was crooked. He suppressed his anger and said,"Father allowed you to choose ten thousand people to expand the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Even if you choose all of them from the prince's personal army, each prince will only have a thousand people.”
"The Divine Armament soldiers are the most courageous in the world. Imperial brother is new, so naturally, you have to choose a stronger army. Please forgive me.”Ye QingChen said lightly.
"Bullsh * t! The Iron Eagle Swordsmen of the King of Qin, the Tiger Troop of the King of Han, and the Black Armor Troop of the King of Tang are all above the Divine Arms Battalion.”Zhu Yuanzhang roared. He had lost five thousand Divine Arms soldiers at once. This loss was truly heartbreaking.
"If Eighth Imperial Brother has any objections, you can go and argue with Imperial Father. Imperial Brother still has to go to the Iron Eagle Sword Camp, so I'll take my leave first.”
After saying that, Ye QingChen left without giving any face to Zhu Yuanzhang.
A slap in the face had to be thorough!
……
"Iron Eagle Sword Camp? This Ninth Brother actually had a vengeful personality.”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye QingChen's back as he left, feeling a little regretful in his heart. If he knew that Ye QingChen had such a personality, he wouldn't have provoked him.
This slap to the face was really too painful.
"Your Highness, what should we do next? Could it be that they were going to let the Sword King take them away just like that? That's five thousand elites!" Li Wenzhong had come over and asked in a low voice.
Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes and said coldly,""It's impolite not to reciprocate. Since Ninth Brother wants to do something big, I'll let him do it. He ordered the people of the East Chamber to pick a major Jianghu murder case and hand it over to the Brocade Guard. I want to see how capable Old Nine is to solve this!”
Li Wenzhong smiled." Your Highness is brilliant. It's most difficult to find traces when a martial arts expert is committing a crime. Even the East Chamber can't solve the case. How can the Sword King solve it? At that time, he'll even ask Your Highness."”
……
On the other side, Ye QingChen had already rushed to the Iron Eagle Sword Camp. He followed his previous practice and started to search through the general register.
There were countless famous generals in the history of the Qin country. He did not believe that they had not been buried.
Very quickly, Ye QingChen discovered another person who also held the position of a lieutenant. His name was Zhang Han!
This was the last famous general in the history of Qin State, the commander of Ying Zheng's trusted Shadow Secret Guards. He had almost single-handedly propped up the Qin Dynasty, and his ability to use troops was beyond doubt.
Similarly, Ye QingChen also dispatched five thousand Iron Eagle Swordsmen from the Iron Eagle Sword Camp and left.
