Zhao Chen and Gao Shun helped until night fell before they finally finished dealing with the aftermath. Zhao Chen thought of a way to find an outstanding strategist and civil official to help him deal with these government affairs. Although Zhao Chen's own political skills were not weak, he had to deal with government affairs in addition to leading troops to fight. He was a little powerless.
Zhao Chen instructed Gao Shun," Gao Shun, you must send more people to patrol the city tonight and take good care of the captives we captured. Be careful of someone sneaking out of the city in the middle of the night to tell on us. We have just taken over Lu County, and the people's hearts are not stable. Our foundation is also shallow, so it's easy for something to happen. You must pay more attention, especially in the next few days. We must seal off the good news. Otherwise, the enemy will lead the army to attack us, and we won't be able to complete the general's instructions. As long as we hold on for three days, General Wang Jian will come here and we will be safe.”
Gao Shun nodded in agreement and told Zhao Chen to rest early. At night, he would be in charge of the defense of the city. Zhao Chen was very confident in Gao Shun. He and Gao Shun discussed the defense part again before heading to his resting place. Gao Shun immediately began to arrange the soldiers guarding the city. On the city wall, there were 50 people arranged in secret sentries. They were distributed to the hidden enemies. On the surface, 200 people were arranged in four groups and patrolled non-stop. There were also 200 people patrolling in the city.
Not only that, but there were also hidden guards secretly monitoring the entire city. As long as there was any abnormal movement, they would immediately detect it and arrest it. Furthermore, Gao Shun had set an example, personally leading a team of soldiers to patrol the entire city for the entire night. He would not change the soldiers. He had to ensure the safety of the entire city and seal off the news.
Zhao Chen returned to the government office. There were 200 Tiger Guards guarding the office. The security was very tight, with five people on each post and ten people on each sentry post. Zhao Chen passed through the heavy guards and went to the study room. He waved his hand to dismiss the Tiger Guards. It turned out that Zhao Chen had noticed the traces of the Shadow Guard's unique martial arts cultivation technique when he arrived at the study. Moreover, this trace was rich in True Qi, and the True Qi in his body communicated with the outside world from time to time. Clearly, this was a sign that his martial arts were about to break through to the Connate Realm. Among the Shadow Guards, only the leader of the Shadow Guards, Ying Sha, had such attainments.
"Come out, Shadowthorn." After the Tiger Guard left, Zhao Chen turned to the screen in the study and said.
A shadow appeared in front of Zhao Chen. The person was dressed in black and black armor. He wore the Yama Ghost Mask on his head and the Ghost Mask Ring on his hand. It was obviously Shadow Killer.
As soon as Shadow Killer appeared, he immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to Zhao Chen." General Wang Jian has already set off. However, due to the large number of soldiers in the army, most of them were infantry. There were few cavalry and many logistics supplies, so the speed of the march was slow. It was estimated that they would arrive in three to four days.
"Yes, by the way, Shadow Killer, remember to collect information about the few cities near Ying County and Lu County. I'm worried that they will send people to investigate. After all, we have forbidden the people from leaving the city for the next few days. They will probably be suspicious. After all, they used to have people entering and leaving these cities every day to trade and visit their relatives. Therefore, you must pay more attention to their movements and send more spies into those important cities, such as Queyu. It could be used to prepare for General Wang Jian's attack.
"This subordinate understands. This subordinate will immediately instruct this subordinate to do it. Is there anything else that my lord needs this subordinate to do?”Shadowthorn said coldly without any expression.
"Right, one last thing. Remember to inform General Xu Rong to pay more attention to the nearby cities. Tell him that I have already taken Lu County and that he should be more careful. Oh right, wait a moment."
Zhao Chen pondered for a while, then turned around and walked to the desk. He picked up his brush and started writing. On an exquisite piece of cloth, lines of vigorous and vigorous words appeared on the cloth with Zhao Chen's brush strokes. After writing it, Zhao Chen circulated the True Qi in his body and converted it into the Dark Yama Mantra that Shadow Killer cultivated. He then left the True Qi on the cloth without damaging it at all. Since he was the one who created this Mantra, he could convert it at will. Otherwise, the others would have exploded and died.
"Take it. This is what I specially wrote down. It contains the comprehension of breaking through from the Houtian to the Xiantian realm, the things to take note of, and the cultivation techniques and cultivation directions after the Xiantian realm. "You're about to break through too. Take this as your reward for the next few days. I hope you can break through as soon as possible and serve me better. In the future, only those who had made great contributions could watch it. Alright, you can go now."
Zhao Chen handed the cloth to him and left the study room to rest in the dormitory. He had spent too much energy today, so Zhao Chen was a little tired.
Shadowthorn received the cloth with an excited expression. His hands trembled as he held it. His originally ice-cold face finally showed the emotions of a normal person. This was because of the cultivation technique he cultivated. His entire person would gradually become a cold-blooded killing god. Only when he broke through to the Innate Realm would he gradually recover. This was also one of the drawbacks of his martial arts.
Shadowthorn was extremely excited. He felt extremely fortunate to have such a generous lord. After all, a martial art that could be cultivated to the Xiantian realm was enough to drive people crazy. In addition, the method to break through to the Xiantian realm and the comprehension were even more precious.
"Your subordinate will definitely break through to the Innate Realm as soon as possible and sweep away all obstacles for the lord. I will do my best for my lord until I die.”Shadowthorn muttered to himself as he held the cloth.
Time flew by, and another day passed. It had been a day since Zhao Chen sealed off the entire city. The commoners were not allowed to enter or leave, and even the merchants were the same. They were all locked up in the city to prevent them from leaking their whereabouts.
At this moment, the guards of the other cities also began to have some doubts. Why hadn't there been any merchants coming to Mo Ying County and Lu County for a long time? There were also some commoners who had gone to visit their relatives, but they hadn't returned. These were all deep doubts for them. Originally, Ying County and Lu County were at the border of Zhao and Qin, and there were often merchants coming and going through the two counties to various parts of Zhao. Now that the number of merchants had decreased greatly, the goods to be sold in various places had piled up, which had greatly affected their income.
In order to investigate these matters, the five cities near Ying County formed an alliance and sent out five thousand soldiers. For their own source of income and to investigate the reason, they sent out nearly half of the army in the city. They were rushing over aggressively from a hundred miles away.# Date:07 18 2019 6:46PM
