Chapter 333: Defense Change(1/2)
Tao Mingwen left the Gongwei Department in a daze.
He came with the intention of making friends, but the money was gone and the people were almost gone.
Cao Su actually fell in love with the quasi-court courtesan they bought for 200,000 taels of silver?
Is he so lucky?
That's right, this person makes too much money and is a bit lustful.
But it was not up to him that Tao Mingwen had the final say in Shang Qiao.
After he was going back, he reported to his father.
Shang Qiao is actually not important. They are the merchants in Xizhou in Shendu, and they have other hidden stories.
Did Cao Su really know? The Gongwei Department has grasped the specific situation?
Could it be that he was taking this opportunity to disclose information to him?
Tao Mingwen suddenly woke up and reacted.
He turned around and found Cao Su holding the knife with one hand, still looking at him with a smile.
"Is that true?"
Tao Mingwen nodded solemnly to Cao Su.
He accelerated his pace of departure, and when he walked away, his face was full of solemnity.
...........
"baffling."
Cao Su originally wanted Yang Ping to go undercover, but unexpectedly, another village was dark and bright, and the other party came up to give up the heads.
Not only did he pick up these tens of thousands of silver in vain, he might even be able to make a fortune in vain.
But Tao Mingwen's actions seemed to have a deep meaning.
Cao Su sneered, Foreign businessmen have a private relationship with Shendu military officers?
Cao Su felt that he was definitely not the first official to be attacked by them. These people from Xizhou were probably very good at Shendu.
Since ancient times, Xizhou has been a wilderness, bitter and cold place with strong people and vast land.
The Shendu went hundreds of miles west, but it still belonged to the Shendu realm, which can also be called the Jingdu.
Until the upper reaches of the Luo River, there is a checkpoint called Xiguan.
Xiguan is majestic and is known as the two major barriers of Shendu, together with Shenguan.
As soon as Xiguan leaves, it is the main road. Going westward, the geological landscape will be severely deviated. Xizhou refers to the area to west of Xiguan. This state is so large that it is thousands of miles away, not below Yuzhou.
If it is subdivided into Xizhou, it can still be classified into several small states.
Historically, wars broke out in Xizhou. Because they were far away from Gods, the gods were beyond the reach. In addition, the people were strong, so it was difficult to manage them.
"These people want to rebel again?"
Cao Su thought a little in his heart and guessed the intentions of these merchants.
In the world, most of the people who want to make friends with officials from Shendu for no reason have bad intentions.
Although Cao Su speculated so much, he had no evidence.
Moreover, it is not very important for people to make friends with him. He is just a businessman, so it is not important to say it.
It would be interesting if this businessman called an official from Xizhou.
He thought for a while and was about to go back to the Imperial College to check some specific historical materials in Xizhou to see if he could find any difference.
.........
.........
Mid October.
Cao Su and his two men completed two small tasks again.
Zhou Wei has not yet come out of seclusion.
When this practitioner practices the exercises, he will be more lasting than a martial artist. He often goes into seclusion for ten days and half a month.
Moreover, during this period, you can not enter water or rice. According to what Qi Refiners say, this is "fasting".
Cao Su was not in a hurry to wait for the "magics" in the team to join the team and do small tasks. Often the three of them were enough.
In the middle of the month, the imperial guards were docked by Mao, and Cao Su walked into the imperial guards camp according to the regulations.
Cao Su's command three thousand elite soldiers were included in the Northern Army of the Imperial Army.
The Imperial Guards are different from the Yulin Army. The Imperial Guards are divided into two armies: North and South.
Among the two armies, there are eight schools, each with more than ten battalions, and each battalion has more than three thousand people.
Therefore, the military strength of the Shendu Imperial Army reached its peak, and roughly estimated that there were only 300,000 people.
Such a huge army will definitely not be all placed in the capital of Shendu.
According to the settings, 50,000 troops were stationed at the east and west levels, and they changed their defenses on a daily basis.
There are also different places stationed in the north and south areas, in addition, there are Daying, Daying, Daying, and the north and south of the city, which are scattered to various places.
Cao Su belonged to the Northern Army. After 3,000 people under his command were included in the Northern Army, he has not yet participated in the garrison rotation.
This time, Cao Su entered the army and was likely to be arranged to participate in the first rotation in the local area.
.........
.........
The northern army camp, flags cover the sun, and swords and halberds are like forests.
There are 80,000 imperial guards in this camp, and they are stationed in two schools.
A battalion commander like Cao Su can be called an imperial guard.
The chief of the imperial guards who have no school is also called the lieutenant, but the lieutenant like them is the special lieutenant of the emperor, with a rank of 2,000 stones and a ranking of the rank of the ministers. In addition to the lieutenant of the battalion of Cao Su, there are also the chief, Sima, etc.
Cao Su walked into the camp wearing black armor.
The Northern Army camp was extremely large, and it was the first time Cao Su came here.
Under the leadership of Sima in the army, Cao Su walked to the garrison of his elite soldiers.
As soon as he walked into the camp, the sharp-eyed sergeant saw Cao Su.
"The general is here!"
The entire camp became lively in an instant.
Cao Su stepped into the camp, and the generals under his command rushed over.
Zhang Ke, Li Li, Luo Yi, Wu Ming and others appeared one after another.
The few people were wearing military uniforms and had not seen each other for a while. They all became much thicker, especially Zhang Ke, Li Li and Luo Yi, who were even more exhausted.
"Sir, you're here!"
When Zhang Ke and others saw Cao Su, they felt a feeling of tears.
Several people ran to greet Cao Su and welcomed Cao Su into the tent.
Cao Su sat in the main seat, and several generals sat down in order according to civil and military affairs.
Zhang Ke on the left hand side spoke first and reported to Cao Su what happened after entering the Shendu.
"We settled in the Northern Army Camp and practiced here day and night."
"According to the rules of the Northern Army camp, practice is divided into small exercises and big exercises, five days a small exercise and ten days a big exercise. The intensity of training is not very large."
"The brothers arrived at Beiying and had no chance to leave the camp. On weekdays, they just practiced themselves in the army."
"As these days, many brothers have broken through to the Qi and Blood Realm, and many brothers have reached the Power Realm."
Zhang Ke smiled and said, "Shi Yong successfully broke through to the Power Realm a few days ago."
"Oh? Shi Yong has broken through to the power realm?"
Cao Su showed joy. Shi Yong was his centurion and was not qualified to attend today's meeting. However, Shi Yong was Cao Su's fellow disciple and the senior brother of the outer school of the martial arts hall. He had a close relationship with Cao Su. Cao Su had always been optimistic about Shi Yong.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, Shi Yong finally broke through to the Power Realm and is the new ninth rank in our army."
"According to the rules of the Beiying, warriors who have newly broken into the Li Realm must go to the Changshui School Captain to worship the mountain and accept gifts and rewards from the court. Shi Yong rewarded five hundred taels of silver and a good knife."
After hearing this, Cao Su pondered: "In addition to the rewards from the court, our army should also provide some subsidies accordingly."
"A young warrior like Shi Yong is the future of our army. After working hard and hard, he finally stood out and became a new power realm. He should strengthen his training."
Zhang Ke smiled and said, "What the lord said is that Shi Yong is indeed very outstanding."
Li Li, who was standing aside, added: "Shi's courage is very strong and his foundation is very solid. Now that he has broken through to the power realm, his strength has increased exponentially, and his combat power has undergone earth-shaking changes."
Luo Yi said: "He is born with divine power."
