After the establishment of the Youzhou Governor's Yamen, the Chief Historian took on the role of the Provincial Governor. Under the propaganda of the Shadow Secret Guards, everyone in Youzhou knew that Youzhou had changed its master.
Fortunately, when Li Yi was in charge of Youzhou, the administration of officials was still clear.
In addition, Youzhou didn't have any big aristocratic families and was a military town, so there weren't many problems.
However, after the investigation of the Shadow Secret Guards, there were still some officials who secretly made deals with each other or were not worthy of their positions.
After that, the county magistrates of these counties were dismissed from office and dealt with according to law. Then, people with talent and virtue were promoted to the position of county magistrate.
As for the troops stationed in Youzhou and the few military headquarters.
Li Lin personally led his men to patrol and check on the military training.
The reputation of the North Manor Army and Li Lin's reputation as King Jing spread throughout the border towns.
After a round of inspection, the generals of the various border armies expressed their obedience to the Governor's Office. Even some generals who had interacted with the Black Knights did not dare to be negligent.
To the 400,000 soldiers of Youzhou.
Apart from the Tianjie Army, Li Lin did not plan to take all the remaining 300,000 soldiers.
As long as they were obedient and carried out military orders when needed.
As for the 100,000 Heavenly Festival Troops that were brought back to White Cloud City, they had gone through Gao Shun's reorganization and training. In addition, they had the support of the primary military camp and were provided with a large number of resources such as medicinal pills.
Four months later, the 100,000 Heavenly Festival Army had completely changed.
Among them, the 5,000 battle troops were elites to begin with. They were at least at the middle and late stages of the Bone Forging realm, and the commander leading them had even broken through to the late stages of the Marrow Cleansing realm.
The remaining 5,000 people had all entered the peak of the Connate Blood Solidification Realm.
There were also dozens of Connate generals.
The ordinary soldiers had all entered the Body Tempering Realm.
With the addition of the four battle formations, the Heaven Festival Troop was also transforming into an even more elite army.
Of course, their loyalty was also increasing.
…….
Roar, roar…
Within the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, the roars of beasts rose and fell one after another. There was a kind of anger in the voices that was quickly transmitted.
As the roars of beasts sounded, more and more beasts roared, as if they were responding.
The Pillar of Heavens Mountains was close to the inner region.
A team of more than ten people wearing black leather armor stood still, their expressions changing drastically.
"This is bad. There must be some changes within the Pillar of Heavens Mountains. Send the signal. Everyone retreat and report to the young master!”
"Here!"
Whoosh! Bang!
Then, a firework rose into the sky and exploded.
Immediately after, fireworks rose into the sky one after another. Black shadows quickly shuttled through the forest and headed toward White Cloud City.
"Report!"
South of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, in a large camp.
The messenger rushed into the commander's tent and bowed to the ground."Your Highness, there is an emergency signal flare rising from the Pillar of Heavens Mountains!”
"Which direction?" Li Lin asked.
"It started from the inside and is now spreading to the outside.”
"Pass down my order. The army in the Pillar of Heavens Mountains is to retreat in an orderly manner and prepare to break camp and return to White Cloud City!”
"Here!"
After the messenger left, Li Lin also hurried out of the tent, followed by Dian Wei and the other generals, as well as the Four Sword Servants.
Just as he left, Zhang Han appeared.
"Young Master, there are roars of beasts coming from the Pillar of Heavens Mountains. The secret guards who are proficient in beasts said that there is anger in the roars. It seemed like something had changed inside the Pillar of Heavens Mountains.”
After hearing Zhang Han's report, Li Lin's face darkened.
The ferocious beasts in the Pillar of Heavens Mountains usually only moved around in the periphery. At the same time, the strength of the beasts in the periphery was not high. At most, they were only in the Tendon Transformation Realm.
Within the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, Tendon Transformation realm beasts were at the lowest level, followed by Connate realm beasts and Divine Treasure realm spirit beasts.
The core area was even said to be occupied by Beast Kings with the strength of Grandmasters and above.
However, these spirit beasts and even beast kings had not moved for countless years.
However, even if only the Connate realm ferocious beasts inside changed, it could cause a beast tide of a certain scale.
Facing hundreds of thousands of ferocious beasts at the Body Tempering stage and above, as well as the crazy proportion of Connate realm ferocious beasts, it was as if they had gone crazy.
No army, even a battle troop, dared to fight in the open.
If they encountered a beast tide, the battle troops with fewer people would be drowned very quickly. Even if a large army set up camps and used giant trees to block, they would not be able to withstand the continuous attacks of the ferocious beasts.
Moreover, there might be some flying beasts attacking.
After the order was passed down, the Heaven Festival Army and the North Manor Army that were training in the Pillar of Heavens Mountains quickly retreated. After returning to their camps, they immediately broke camp and headed for White Cloud City.
At the same time, several squads of knights headed to Youzhou City and the other garrisons with military orders.
White Cloud City.
The North Manor Army and the Heaven Festival Army rushed back to the city, alarming the citizens and the people from the aristocratic families.
"Pass on the Royal Highness's orders. The four cities of White Cloud City are sealed off.”
"Pass on the Royal Highness's orders. The four cities of White Cloud City are sealed off.”
“…….”
Not long after the army had returned to the city, several teams of knights were shouting military orders in White Cloud City. The four gates of White Cloud City were also guarded by more troops. All kinds of city defense equipment were constantly moved to the city walls.
"What's going on?"
"Could it be that the Outsiders from the Northern Territory are attacking?”
"Bullsh * t, is our prince afraid of the Outsiders? How many of those barbarians have been killed by His Highness's troops?”
"That's right, that's right…"
"Then, if it wasn't an alien race, what happened? Why is the North Manor Army so nervous?"
“…….”
" No, it can't be the Pillar of Heavens Mountains..."
"Hiss, don't talk nonsense!"
The person who guessed that it was the Pillar of Heavens Mountain shrank his neck in grievance after being glared at by the surrounding people. As for the others, all of them had solemn expressions on their faces and did not speak.
Although they glared at the person who guessed it, after thinking about it carefully, it was really possible.
What was the most terrifying thing about Youzhou Province?
No one would say that they were Outsiders. Instead, they would look at the Pillar of Heavens Mountains that towered into the clouds and stretched for hundreds of miles in the north.
The beasts inside almost never came out.
However, every beast tide would cause Youzhou to be devastated.
It had been more than a thousand years since the last beast tide, but the people in White Cloud City were still terrified.
Rumble!
The 50,000 Heavenly Festival Troops carried many large carts covered in thick black cloth and left the camp. Among them were the Battle Troops.
After the Tianjie Army left the camp, they headed straight for the south gate in a hurry.
The expressions of the citizens in White Cloud City changed again when they saw the direction the soldiers were heading in and their expressions.
"Could it be that something really happened in the Pillar of Heavens Mountains?”
