Chapter 181: The Qinglong Army Sets Out

Looking at the floating Spirit Stone Fragments, the six Grand Commanders all accepted them with excitement in their eyes.

At the same time, the six of them thanked Liu Bian loudly:

"Thank you, Your Majesty! We, the end generals, will certainly not fail Your Majesty's trust!"

After the six accepted the Spirit Stone Fragments, Liu Bian glanced at Guo Jia again and pondered secretly:

"It is time for Fengxiao and the others to start cultivating formations; it seems I still have to exchange for a formation manual for them."

"It's just that I don't know if my National Fortune Points are enough!"

Liu Bian pondered secretly in his heart, and then said to the system in his heart:

"System, help me open the system mall and search for formation manuals below Mystic Grade Ultimate that I can exchange for with my current National Fortune Points."

"Ding, very well, Host."

Following the system prompt, the system mall appeared before Liu Bian's eyes.

Immediately after, the system helped Liu Bian search for the formation manuals he could exchange for with his current National Fortune Points.

Incomplete Formation Manual: Yellow Grade Lower Quality, contains 49 formation diagrams and deployment methods for Yellow Grade Lower Quality formations, price 1000 National Fortune Points;

Yellow Grade Mid Quality Formation Manual: Yellow Grade Mid Quality, contains 18 formation diagrams and deployment methods for Yellow Grade Mid Quality formations, price 3000 National Fortune Points;

Yellow Grade Upper Quality Formation Manual: Yellow Grade Upper Quality, contains 18 formation diagrams and deployment methods for Yellow Grade Upper Quality formations, price 5000 National Fortune Points;

Yellow Grade Formation Compendium: Yellow Grade Ultimate, contains 49 Yellow Grade Lower Quality formations, 36 Yellow Grade Mid Quality formations, 27 Yellow Grade Upper Quality formations, 18 Yellow Grade Ultimate formations, price 【redacted】 National Fortune Points;

Mystic Grade Formation Compendium: Mystic Grade Ultimate, contains all 3600 Yellow Grade formations, 3000 Mystic Grade formations, price 【redacted】 National Fortune Points;

Earth Grade Formation Compendium: Earth Grade Ultimate, contains all formations below Earth Grade, 3000 Earth Grade formations, price 【redacted】 National Fortune Points.

"Hiss..."

"This manual is really ridiculously expensive!"

"It's nearly ten times more expensive than weapons and pills!"

Liu Bian looked at the prices of these formation manuals in the system mall and couldn't help but exclaim.

These things are all good things, and the formations inside are also quite comprehensive.

It's just that the price is a bit expensive.

However, for technique-type items, it's understandable to have this price.

After all, once this thing is exchanged, anyone can cultivate it.

Unlike weapons and pills, which are one-time consumables.

"System, help me exchange for the 'Mystic Grade Formation Compendium'."

In the end, Liu Bian decided to exchange for the "Mystic Grade Formation Compendium" first; there was no need to exchange for the Earth Grade one yet.

Even if it were exchanged, it couldn't be deployed without the strength of a Martial Ancestor or above.

"Ding, exchange successful for the Host, remaining National Fortune Points 【redacted】."

Subsequently, Liu Bian took out the "Mystic Grade Formation Compendium" from the system space.

"Old Minister Cai, make a copy of this formation compendium for all the ministers; keep the original with you, and in the future, it can be placed in the Library Pavilion of the Royal Academy."

"By the way, make a copy for Yu Ji as well; his constitution is a Formation Dao constitution."

Liu Bian took out the newly exchanged "Mystic Grade Formation Compendium" and said to the Minister of Rites, Cai Yong.

The Eunuch Chief Steward Li Liangcheng on the side took it from Liu Bian's hand and respectfully handed it to Cai Yong.

Cai Yong held the "Mystic Grade Formation Compendium" excitedly and shouted loudly to Liu Bian:

"This old minister obeys the decree!"

"Since that is the case, all ministers, go and prepare; Wenruo, you cooperate with Zhicai to prepare the grain and fodder for Yunchang's expedition."

"This subject obeys the decree!"

"We, your subjects, take our leave!"

After everyone bid farewell to Liu Bian, they all hurried away.

And Cai Yong, on the way back, made a copy of the "Mystic Grade Formation Compendium" for all the cabinet ministers, Ministers of the Six Ministries, and the commanders of the six legions.

Of course, he did not forget Yu Ji's copy.

And at this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, after leaving the Imperial Study, rode fast horses all the way to the station of the Qinglong Legion outside the east of Luoyang City.

And Guo Jia, as the accompanying military advisor, also arrived at the station of the Qinglong Army together.

"Third Brother, notify Wen Ze and Yuan Fu to come to the military tent to discuss matters!"

After arriving at the military tent, Guan Yu sat in the main seat and said solemnly to Zhang Fei.

"Yes, Second Brother!"

Zhang Fei hurriedly agreed, then took out his identity jade token and began to notify Yu Jin and Zhou Cang.

Soon, Yu Jin and Zhou Cang, who were training soldiers in the military camp, received Zhang Fei's message.

The two immediately gave instructions to their subordinates and hurried to Guan Yu's tent.

"This end general pays respects to General Guan and the Military Advisor!"

After the two saw Guan Yu and the others, they clasped their fists respectfully.

"Wen Ze, Yuan Fu, Yide and I just returned from the palace; the Prefect of Liaoxi Commandery in Youzhou, Gongsun Zan, took advantage of the emptiness in Youzhou to seize Liaodong and Xuantu Commandery and the other four eastern commanderies; as for the loss of the remaining Lelang Commandery, it is only a matter of time."

"By His Majesty's decision, this time my Qinglong Army will send one hundred thousand troops to pacify the rebellion in Youzhou."

Guan Yu, after seeing the two arrive, did not exchange pleasantries and said straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other and clasped their fists at Guan Yu simultaneously:

"This end general requests to fight!"

Seeing this, Guan Yu said to the two: "For this expedition, His Majesty only allows me to take one hundred thousand troops."

"So I intend for you, Wen Ze, to stay behind and train the remaining soldiers; you know Yuan Fu's abilities, he is not as suitable as you after all."

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin also smiled bitterly and immediately said to Guan Yu:

"This end general obeys the decree!"

Seeing Yu Jin a bit disappointed, Guan Yu couldn't help but comfort him:

"Don't worry, Wen Ze; staying behind to train soldiers is also a great meritorious service. This time, His Majesty has rewarded our six legions with one million two hundred thousand Spirit Stone Fragments."

"Whether we can suppress the other five legions in three months depends on you!"

Guan Yu also stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly.

Yu Jin, upon hearing this, was startled and felt full of motivation again, immediately guaranteeing:

"Please rest assured, General; this end general will certainly train them well!"

Moreover, he also knew that among the four of them, only he and Guan Yu were relatively suitable for training soldiers.

As for Zhang Fei and Zhou Cang, they were basically just watching from the sidelines, all moving only when Guan Yu arranged it.

After deciding on the personnel for the expedition and those staying behind, Guan Yu also asked Guo Jia:

"Military Advisor, when do you think it is appropriate for us to set out?"

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia also replied to Guan Yu: "General Guan, this depends on when the grain and fodder from Zhicai and Wenruo arrive."

"As soon as the grain and fodder arrive, we can set out immediately."

"However, according to my estimation, they will bring the grain and fodder for the army's expedition by tonight at the latest, and we can set out early tomorrow morning."

"So, General, you should assemble the army early and give instructions to the soldiers." ===== CHAPTER 182 =====
