One day later, Zhuo Junyan's team grew to 200 people.

The leader of the Shahe bandits, Luo Yuanhang, was a practical man. He knew that not only could he challenge Zhuo Junyan, but he would not be able to challenge the four realms of Long Nuanyan, Kuang Dayan, Chen Siyu, and He Shengyan.

He surrendered swiftly and decisively.

With these people, the team grew, and by the way, Kuang Dayan and others were finally freed from their roles as bearers.

And with Luo Yuanhang, an old horse who knows the way, the march becomes more directional.

At this moment, Luo Yuanhang, who had a big beard and a face as fierce as a butcher, followed the sedan and pointed into the distance: "Beyond this place is eight hundred miles of dry sea. There are only one city and twelve towns along the way. The land is vast and the people are sparsely populated. So.

I suggest that we go to Qingquan Town first to get some supplies, and then go to Ling City. After leaving Ling City, we rush all the way. At our speed, we can get out of here in two days and nights. After leaving here, the terrain is getting better and the population is getting better.

Increase. Then supplies will be much more convenient."

Although Luo Yuanhang looks fierce, he is actually a scholar.

It's a pity that in this era, it is better to be a butcher than to be an official while studying.

However, the Sha Kingdom is different from other countries. For example, the Yue Dynasty and other countries all use the imperial examination system to govern the country, but the Sha Kingdom uses the imperial examination system.

The so-called imperial examination system is to establish a review system that does not select officials through the imperial examination, but through inspection and recommendation.

This means that it is easy to form a clique and influence - when it comes to recommendations, they must be from your own people.

But there is no way.

Due to its unique geographical environment, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is vast and sparsely populated, and has great local autonomy. Even the emperor has limited control over the subordinates. This is a situation that has been formed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for thousands of years, and even Sha Zonghan is unable to solve it.

In this situation, many people have no chance of advancement, and coupled with the lack of resources, various bandits and grass bandits are formed, running around and plundering for a living.

It can be said that among the seven Eastern Riku countries, in terms of local power, the strongest ones are Sand Kingdom and Izumo. There are more deserts in one country and more grasslands in the other, so they mostly exist in a tribal situation. The emperor's responsibility is to win over the various forces, not to force them.

After Sha Zonghan came to power, he worked hard and made many reforms, such as establishing his own system of inspectors, which had great power and restricted tribal power to a certain extent. To put it bluntly, it was decentralization.

Su Zaiwen is one of the inspectors of the Inspection Department and has great power.

But that can only go so far.

Zhuo Junyan responded calmly: "Then go ahead."

So the sedan got up and walked all the way to Qingquan Town.

——————————————

Yanlong Pass.

An iron-blooded army is entering.

Standing at the top of the city and looking from a distance, you can see the flags are densely covered, the flags are fluttering, and the swords, guns, swords and halberds stretch all the way to the end.

Two hundred and fifty thousand troops, gathering the strength of the four countries, surged in.

This is also the first time in human history that all countries have joined forces to fight against one person.

On that day, Sha Zonghan had settled in the general's mansion where Qin killed blood.

After listening to Qin Shaxue and Su Zaiwen's report, Sha Zonghan sighed softly.

This breath made Su Zaiwen inexplicably nervous.

Could it be that I made the wrong decision?

Fortunately, Sha Zonghan already said: "You did nothing wrong, this is the right thing. I'm just a little troubled..."

Su Zaiwen asked carefully: "What is your Majesty worried about?"

...Sha Zonghan got up and came to the map on the wall. He looked at the map and said, "Zhuo Junyan's speed is too slow."

Yes, he was worried about Zhuo Junyan's traveling speed.

too slow.

The 250,000-strong army was marching all the way, and the marching speed could not be faster, but even so, they were still only three days away from Zhuo Junyan.

Zhuo Junyan was like a turtle, crawling slowly on the ground with no intention of escaping.

Not only is he slow.

The sect is also slow.

At this moment, the people from the sect are still stranded at Yanlong Pass.

They were just waiting for Sha Zonghan.

After thinking for a while, Sha Zonghan said: "You go down first and let Jin Yuezheng and others come in."

The two left as ordered.

After a while, Jin Yuezheng, Long Huixiang, Rong Jiushan, Luo Qingyang, Yuan Siye and the newly promoted Lieyan Sect leader Yan Zixiong and others entered.

After they had saluted, Sha Zonghan said: "Zhuo Junyan left Yanlong Pass three days ago, but you guys stayed behind and refused to pursue him. Let me guess, do you want to attack Zhuo Junyan with the army?"

Jin Yue said seriously: "That is indeed what I mean!"

Jin Yue is the leader of Xiliang Sect, and Xiliang Sect is the national protector sect of Sha Kingdom.

When Sha Zonghan ascended the throne, he still relied on the support of the previous head of the Xiyang Sect. Even now, Jin Yuezheng is the state master of the Sha Kingdom.

Therefore, his relationship with Sha Zonghan is also the most special. He said directly: "Your Majesty, I know that you came back to pursue Yang Yunzhao, but the current situation is that Zhuo Junyan is the key."

Sha Zonghan smiled slightly: "In the battle at Wangchunguan, I heard that he died in the spiritual realm. Is this true?"

Everyone looked at each other and finally nodded: "In fact, it is a holy realm."

"Holy realm?" Sha Zonghan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Tell me about it."

Regarding Sha Zonghan, Jin Yuezheng did not hide much and told the facts one by one.

After hearing this, Sha Zonghan understood: "Ling Palace... Holy Palace... So that's it... Then everything can be explained. In other words, you and I actually belong to the power of the Holy Palace.

?”

"Yes!" Everyone nodded.

Sha Zonghan said: "But now the Holy Palace has not come out, but the Spiritual Palace has appeared?"

"yes!"

"They want to kill Zhuo Junyan, but they still need us. The reason is...Zhuo Junyan won't accept anything?"

"yes!"

"Is there any spirit coming here now?"

"The people haven't arrived yet, but the news has arrived."

"The person hasn't arrived yet, how come the news comes?"

"A special envoy was sent."

"who?"

"Shen Congyun."

"Shen Congyun? The world's greatest catcher of the Yue Dynasty?" Sha Zonghan was stunned: "How could it be him?"

Everyone smiled bitterly.

Long echoed: "We don't understand why it was him. After Zhuo Junyan captured the Holy Sword Mountain and plundered the Moon Palace, Shen Congyun hung up his crown and left. When he appeared again, it was this time, now. He is still there today

In the team.”

"What is he going to do?"

Rong Jiushan replied: "He didn't have any idea. He just told us to continue to hunt Zhuo Junyan. It's up to us to decide how to do it. If we don't agree, the spirit realm will come to assassinate us. And we... must give a decent response

ambush."

"Decent?" Sha Zonghan was stunned: "He's talking about a decent ambush?"

Everyone said: "A decent ambush! These are the exact words!"

...Sha Zonghan pondered: "Zhuo Junyan also allows you to hunt him down?"

Jin Yuezheng said helplessly: "Yes. We all know his purpose. He needs fighting to stimulate himself. He said that as long as we don't attack his people, even if we lose, there will be a chance for peace talks."

Sha Zonghan pondered: "Has Shen Congyun ever said, what will the spiritual palace do to us if Zhuo Junyan dies?"

Luo Qingyang shook his head: "I didn't say."

Sha Zonghan frowned: "I didn't say...Is it because I asked but didn't answer, or because you didn't ask."

Yuan Shine said: "He said he was just a messenger. He didn't know some things. He was just following orders."

Sha Zonghan tapped his fingers on the table: "It shouldn't be... Why didn't you explain it? This is unreasonable."

Linggong and the Eastern Continent are not the same. Without officially controlling the Eastern Continent, the only way for Linggong to make the nine major sects obey is through negotiation.

You have to make some kind of promise, for example, the battle for the Holy Spirit is only at the top, not at the bottom.

Only in this way will everyone be willing to listen to you.

Now there is no promise, the route is different, and I am forced to do so, and I still haven’t come out of the spiritual realm.
