The five lieutenants had already returned home. Naturally, they could not hear Jiang Chen's voice here, so there was no response at all.
A few seconds later, Jiang Chen asked expressionlessly,"
"According to the new military law, what's the punishment for not being named?”
"Your Majesty, according to the law, he should be beheaded."
The guard of honor spoke loudly, dutifully playing the role of an excellent tool.
There was indeed such a clause in the new army law that had just been promulgated.
Even if he didn't, his answer was still the same.
It was more than enough that the king wanted them dead.
"Very good."
Jiang Chen smiled. His warm smile seemed very approachable.
However, the words that came out of his mouth made everyone's heart jump to their throats.
He said,
"The five lieutenants have left the camp without permission and are lawless. All of them will be stripped of their military posts and beheaded immediately after they are arrested.
Great General Wang Ming was incompetent in governing his subordinates, nepotism, corruption of military discipline, and failure to live up to the country's grace.
He was dismissed from all his duties and detained in prison, waiting for all his crimes to be investigated before being tried.”
Before the first wave subsided, another wave rose.
Before anyone could react, Jiang Chen raised his voice and shouted,
"Li Yuanfang?"
"Your subject is here."
"Immediately go and capture the criminal and bring him here for a proper punishment.”
"Yes."
Under everyone's astonished gazes, the general in dark red armor tapped the ground lightly with the tip of his toes, and his entire body actually soared into the air.
With a whoosh, it tore through the sky and disappeared in front of them.
Cultivators.
Three words appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.
Then, his second reaction was that there were cultivators under His Majesty, and they were so powerful.
The soldiers in the military camp were different from ordinary people. They had come into contact with real cultivators.
In their impression, even Wang Ming couldn't unleash the speed of the general.
He crossed the entire military camp almost in an instant, and he didn't even have time to look around.
On the high platform, Jiang Chen stood where he was and waited quietly.
The notification of the increase in loyalty sounded in his mind again.
On the drill ground, the five thousand soldiers were also secretly looking forward to it.
Everyone swore silently in their hearts.
"If the king really dares to attack the nobles, then what can I do even if I give up my rotten life?”
"Regardless of whether Your Majesty succeeds or not, I, Wang Er, will follow you to the death. Finally, there is a monarch who dares to control those lawless and hateful nobles. I can't just watch hope slip away in front of me, right?”
"His Majesty has already stood up. I, Zhang San, am just a commoner. If I die, so be it. What's there to be afraid of?”
"Mother, Father, just you wait. The good days of the nobles are over. I'll get you out immediately.
In the future, we will farm, harvest, and eat by ourselves. We don't have to be serfs for the nobles in exchange for a pitiful amount of food that is less than one-tenth of the harvest.”
"I heard that it's written in the recruitment order that if you join the army, you can obtain cultivation techniques. I'm already in the army, so I should meet the requirements, right?”
……
A moment later, the sound of loyalty rising rang out again.
Jiang Chen shouted in his heart.
"Heavenly Son Gazing at Qi."
In the next moment, a small list appeared above every soldier's head.
[Zhao Da: Loyalty 80]
[King Two: Loyalty 70]
[Zhang San: Loyalty 60]
……
It turned out that the average loyalty of soldiers was around 60.
After all, compared to those military officers, they had no right to look down on the monarch.
Basically, it was an order from the higher-ups and they just had to follow it.
But now, after two consecutive surges, the overall loyalty had increased by nearly 20 points on average.
In the entire military camp, the average loyalty of everyone had reached 78.
He could be considered to have gained initial control over this 5,000-man army.
However, he still needed to add more officers before he could truly control it.
It was also at this moment that his mind rang again.
Jiang Chen knew that this was a notification from the game genie.
He gently tapped on it, and two notifications appeared on a virtual screen that only he could see.
[Hint: Player Jiang Chen has issued a new military law. He has killed an insubordinate and intimidated the soldiers. He has successfully subdued the army. He is rewarded with a C-grade Valiant General Card. When used, he can obtain a C-grade Valiant General.]
[Hint: Player Jiang Chen's C-grade Valiant General Card has been upgraded to B-grade Valiant General Character Card by the title of The Ancient Emperor. When used, it can summon a B-grade historical famous Valiant General.]
(Author's note: Non-hidden quests do not have first time clearing rewards.)）
Looking at these two new notifications, Jiang Chen's lips curled into an undetectable smile.
Wang Ming looked down on an army of ordinary people because he was too inexperienced and thought that he was strong enough to sweep through everything by himself.
In fact, there was a very special setting in the struggle for hegemony, and that was the military formation.
A military formation could gather the strength of countless people into one. If the army of five thousand was trained properly, it was enough to display the strength of a Rank-3.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan Fang was only a valiant general and not a famous general. Otherwise, Class A would definitely have an army to support them.
Fierce generals charged into battle, and famous generals commanded calmly. They were both generals, but they were still different.
