Chapter 1281

Below, Lu Qiuwei couldn't help but ask:

"My lord, the Flash Gold Plain is so vast that even the Mou Nation is at a loss; how can Yangshan...?" He made a gesture of putting it into his pocket.

How many times the area of Yangshan was the Flash Gold Plain? Even Ding Zuodong couldn't calculate it. Wanting to conquer the Flash Gold Plain, wanting to fulfill a dream that two great powers couldn't achieve? If someone else said this, they would laugh at him for daydreaming.

He Lingchuan looked at the sky outside the window and saw the thick clouds rolling; suddenly, he had an inspiration: "Yangshan in the Flash Gold Plain should be like a hidden dragon in the abyss, gathering strength and waiting to be unleashed."

Wang Fubao said excitedly: "Then when can we follow the clouds and ascend to heaven?"

He Lingchuan smiled slightly: "Wait for a clap of thunder."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of lightning struck outside, followed by several rumbles of thunder.

Today is the Awakening of Insects.

Everyone's faces were illuminated by the heavenly thunder, turning blue and white.

Looking through the window, heaven and earth were a curtain, a piece of turbidity.

Only the lightning snakes cut through the long sky, ferocious and arrogant.

Everyone was shocked into silence, only able to silently feel the power of heaven and earth and listen to the thunder.

He Lingchuan exerted his true power, and his words accompanied the thunder, entering everyone's ears word by word: "When Yangshan parts the clouds and ascends to heaven, it will surely possess the momentum of a thunderbolt."

In the distance, the last two lightning bolts crossed and struck down, like a huge, incomparable tree growing between heaven and earth, lasting for two full breaths before disappearing.

The thunder across the sky withdrew its rage and turned into a torrential spring rain.

Only then did He Lingchuan continue to arrange, pointing to Qiu Hu and Wan Sifeng: "You two, take the lead in establishing the Yangshan Army. It must be different from the security team; only select elite soldiers and fierce generals. By the end of the year, give me 2,500 elite soldiers; within two years, at least 6,000."

The two replied in unison, their expressions solemn.

This was a huge challenge. Don't look at the fact that the Yangshan security team now has nearly 6,000 people, but the lord only said "elite soldiers," which means vanguard troops; it means selecting the best of the best, not including other miscellaneous soldiers.

It would be good to pick 500 vanguard soldiers out of these 6,000—including the Bailong people.

However, an army without elite soldiers is the way to defeat.

They also understood He Lingchuan's intention; it was time to separate the security team from the army. The Yangshan security team was enough to guard the archipelago, while the Yangshan Army had to grow into the brave cavalry that would fight for He Lingchuan in all directions! Time was tight and the task was heavy; no wonder the lord had to arrange it in advance.

Qiu Hu said in a deep voice: "Rongshan sent a message, hoping to send another forty disciples to Yangshan, all of whom have practiced for more than ten years; in addition, I have contacted former comrades-in-arms, and they also want to defect to the lord."

Yangshan slowly gained fame in this area, and old friends saw that Qiu Hu was doing well, so they were willing to come and join.

This is called calling friends and companions.

To this, He Lingchuan only had two words: "Let them all come."

Afterward, he said to the brothers Li Mingyang and Li Mingrong of the Songyang Mansion: "You two lead people to work overtime these few days and build me another sixty sets of battle armor."

These two were the heads of the Yangshan branch of the Songyang Mansion and Li Fubo's personal disciples. In the past two years, they had led their subordinates to make many achievements, making the branch flourish and squeezing into the core circle of Yangshan.

"Yes." The two agreed first and then asked, "What kind of battle armor do you want?"

"Light, pure black battle armor, with masks, which is very different from Yangshan's military uniforms; the appearance should be ferocious and leave a deep impression at a glance." He Lingchuan thought for a moment, "By the way, it must be easy to put on and take off."

The two looked at each other: "We just happened to build a new set of armor samples; would you like to come and give your opinion?"

The color and style can be changed.

Afterward, He Lingchuan assigned tasks to others.

Until the rain stopped, the meeting ended, and everyone took their orders and left.

The next day, He Lingchuan first replaced all the Punishment Dragon Pillars at the Earthly Yin Qi fissures, and then went to care for the King of Yin Snakes and Fushan Yue.

Fushan Yue kept his word and really practiced with peace of mind without causing trouble. So the two were now safe and sound, and their relationship was quite harmonious.

In a few months, Fushan Yue also fulfilled his duties, sending two letters to Lingxu City to report the intelligence of the Yangshan Archipelago to the Frost Leaf National Preceptor.

This was originally a very embarrassing thing; eating the brother's food, drinking the brother's drink, rubbing the brother's evil energy to practice, and still having to dig up the brother's intelligence to hand over to the superior. Even someone as thick-skinned as Fushan Yue felt a bit sorry, so he kept a copy when writing the letter, and at this time, he took it to show He Lingchuan.

He Lingchuan pushed it away and didn't look at it at all: "No need, you just write it as it is."

"How can I be embarrassed?" Fushan Yue was eating delicious and sweet lobster, feeling ashamed.

"Report it truthfully, otherwise you will be replaced." He Lingchuan said sternly, "Do you think the Frost Leaf National Preceptor only sent you to collect intelligence on Yangshan?"

"Uh!" Pointed out by him, Fushan Yue suddenly realized, "You are right. He must have sent others to collect it secretly!"

Fushan Yue and He Lingchuan had a deep relationship when they were in Beijia; how could Frost Leaf trust him completely? "He can receive at least several copies of intelligence about Yangshan. If you write false intelligence to him, as long as he cross-checks, you are very likely to be exposed." He Lingchuan patted him on the shoulder, "It's hard to play tricks with an old monster like Frost Leaf."

Fushan Yue knew very well, so he was very distressed: "Frost Leaf is most interested in Yangshan's income, military strength, and strategy, and he asks about it when writing to me."

And he couldn't help but answer.

"You can't ask about the so-called strategic plan, and Frost Leaf knows it; as for the others, you can just say it." He Lingchuan laughed, "The Yangshan Archipelago is developing openly and honestly; what secrets are there that cannot be told to others?"

"Frost Leaf asked about your whereabouts in his last letter."

"What did you say?"

"Tell the truth, the Mou Nation has assigned you a few tasks and asked you to go to the Flash Gold Plain to complete them. I don't know the content of the tasks."

"Exactly."

At this time, Taozi rode Jiao Yu over to find Fushan Yue.

The little girl was smiling and becoming more cheerful, but she didn't hold hands with people as often as before.

When Jiao Yu saw He Lingchuan, he also puffed and rubbed his head. He butted his head against the fierce tiger, hugged it hard twice, and gave up his position.

On the sea to Pan Silk Island, the Soul-Taking Mirror said: "You are good to Fushan Yue, not making things difficult for him. I just don't know if he will make things difficult for you in the future."

"Fushan Yue is an important part of the game between me and Frost Leaf. If Frost Leaf replaces him, it will be even more disadvantageous to me."

"Game?" The mirror wondered, "When did it start again, why don't I know?"

"From the moment he sent Fushan Yue over." He Lingchuan was still sitting at the bow of the ship, enjoying the sea breeze. The wind of the Flash Gold Plain was not so wet and warm, "This move is not only a demonstration to me but also a pressure on me."

After the last Yu Zecheng incident, the Frost Leaf National Preceptor had to cover for He Lingchuan and even canceled the arrest warrant for Zhu Erniang. But He Lingchuan would never be naive enough to think that his future troubles were gone and he could sit back and relax from now on.
