Everyone rode their horses back to Horizontal Blade City. However, they didn't enter the city through the gate where the Saber Sage Pavilion Academy was located. Instead, they entered through another gate. Although there were many people here, it was much more deserted compared to the gate where the Saber Sage Pavilion Academy was located.
Although Zhao Hai's huge figure attracted people's attention, it didn't delay their journey. After all, this was Horizontal Blade City, the capital of the Saber Spirit Nation. There were too many people going in and out of this city every day. No one would pay too much attention to things that had nothing to do with them.
Zhao Hai followed Captain Feng around the city several times before they arrived at an ordinary residential area. There weren't any particularly good houses here, but each house had its own entrance. The courtyard walls were also very high, giving it a unique flavor.
Everyone stopped outside an ordinary courtyard and jumped off their horses. Captain Feng went forward and knocked on the door. A woman's voice was heard, "Who is it?"
Captain Feng said, "It's me. Begin." Along with Captain Feng's voice, the door opened. A teenage girl was standing inside, but she was dressed as a servant. When she saw Captain Feng, she immediately gave him a salute and said, "I've seen the Master. Welcome back to the mansion."
Captain Feng nodded and said, "Is the Madam home? Have Feng Shun lead the horses to the stable at the back and settle them down. Have you prepared the food and wine that I asked Madam to prepare? "
The girl immediately replied, "Yes, Master. The Madam is home. The food and wine have been prepared."
Captain Feng nodded. Then he turned to look at Zhao Hai and said, "Let's go in." Zhao Hai and the others naturally didn't say anything. They chatted and laughed as they entered the courtyard.
Once they entered the courtyard, they realized that although the courtyard door didn't look very big, the courtyard inside wasn't small at all. Once they entered, they saw a training field. Behind it was a row of main rooms with two rows of side rooms on both sides. Moreover, it was obvious that there was a backyard behind the main rooms. The area of the entire courtyard was really not small.
Liu Yuangong looked at Captain Feng's courtyard and sighed, "Although it's not my first time here, I still have to say that the Captain's courtyard is really good. What do you think?"
The others nodded as well. Captain Feng's courtyard was really good in Horizontal Blade City. One had to know that the Horizontal Blade City was the leader of the Blade Spirit Nation. It was the largest and most prosperous city in the Blade Spirit Nation. Cities like this all had a common problem, and that was the high price of housing.
It wasn't easy for an ordinary person to own a house in Horizontal Blade City. If one were to use a phrase to describe the people in Horizontal Blade City, it would be that living in a big city was unsuitable.
When Captain Feng heard Liu Yuangong, he smiled faintly and said, "My family is originally from Horizontal Blade City. This house is also an ancestral property. Hehe, in the past, the houses in Horizontal Blade City weren't as expensive as they are now. Now that I think about it, it's really good to have a house like this."
Everyone chuckled. At this time, a woman came out of the main room. This woman was wearing very simple clothes. She wasn't very beautiful, but she had a temperament, a very gentle temperament. It made people feel very peaceful and comfortable when they saw her.
Liu Yuangong and the others obviously respected this woman. Therefore, when they saw her, they immediately gave her a salute and said, "Sister-in-law, we've come to disturb you again."
The woman smiled faintly and said, "There's no need to be polite. We're all brothers. Oh, who is this brother? He's quite tall."
Captain Feng smiled and said, "This is a new member of our team. He's called Crane Field. He's a powerful Plant Master. Today, I brought him here to see who he is."
Zhao Hai quickly stepped forward and gave Madam Feng a salute, "I've seen Sister-in-law."
Madam Feng looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, "Good, you're too polite. From now on, we'll be brothers. There's no need to be so polite. Come in and have a seat." Captain Feng also invited everyone to enter the house.
After entering the house, they discovered that it was just an ordinary living room. However, the furniture inside was quite old. After the group sat down, the maid immediately served them tea.
After Madam Feng personally served everyone tea, she sat next to Captain Feng and chatted with everyone. Because they were all soldiers and weren't from a large family, they didn't have many rules. Drinking tea and chatting with everyone like Madam Feng was something that couldn't be seen in a large family. However, in a small family like this, it wasn't disrespectful at all. It can even be said that it was a sign of intimacy.
After chatting for a while, Captain Feng led everyone to the dining room. When they arrived at the dining room and sat down, Madam Feng immediately served them food and wine. The dishes weren't anything special, they were just ordinary dishes. However, there was a lot of meat. The wine was also ordinary wine. However, this kind of hospitality made everyone happy.
While the group was drinking, Captain Feng suddenly heard a knock on the door. Then the door opened and Madam Feng walked in. She said to Captain Feng, "Old Feng, someone from your regiment came. They said that they have something important to discuss with you. They are looking for all of you."
When Captain Feng heard Madam Feng, he immediately knew that there might be a mission. He immediately nodded, then he turned to everyone and said, "Alright, it seems like we won't be able to drink today. Madam, clean up the place. Let's go." After he said that, he stood up and led everyone outside. On the surface, Captain Feng's current identity was a mid-level officer in the City Guard Corps. Very few people knew that he was actually a captain in the Saber Guards Corps. That was why Madam Feng said that the Corps sent someone to look for him, not the Saber Guards Corps.
When they arrived at Captain Feng's courtyard, Captain Feng saw a person. When he saw this person, Captain Feng immediately nodded. Then he turned his head and ordered someone to bring out the horses. Then he led everyone and the person to leave. When they were outside, Captain Feng looked at the person and said, "What's going on?"
The person replied, "Important mission, saving people. We'll talk about it when we get back." Captain Feng nodded. Then everyone rode their horses out of the city.
The group quickly returned to the base. When they arrived, Captain Feng led Zhao Hai and the others back to their cave. When they arrived at their cave, a person came in. This person was about 1.7 meters tall. He had an ordinary appearance, but his face was cold. The soul item on his head was a long sword. Moreover, it was the most ordinary type of sword.
When they saw this inconspicuous person, Captain Feng and the others immediately stood up. Then they gave a salute and said, "Captain." The person nodded and waved his hand. Then everyone sat down and waited for him to speak.
Zhao Hai now had a certain understanding of the division of the Saber Guard Corps. The total number of people in the Saber Guard Corps wasn't a lot, only about ten thousand. If they were considered as the reserve force, then the number would be higher. However, the reserve force had its own independent command system. Their relationship with the Saber Guard Corps wasn't very clear. Because of this, the actual number of people in the Saber Guard Corps was about fifteen thousand. These fifteen thousand people were all official members of the Saber Guard Corps. However, this didn't include the guests. If the guests were included, then the total number of people in the Saber Guard Corps would be about sixteen thousand.
Of these sixteen thousand people, there would be a squad captain for every ten people, a platoon captain for every one hundred people, and a captain for every one thousand people. In total, the Saber Guard Corps had fifteen captains, all of whom were under the command of a Legion Commander.
Of course, the Saber Guard Corps was generally different from those who went out on missions. The number of people who went out on missions was also different. Sometimes, they needed to dispatch a hundred people, sometimes, they only needed fifty people, sometimes, twenty to thirty people, or even two to three hundred people. For the platoon captain and squad captain, the number of people under their command was always higher than the number of people specified in their duties. For example, Iron Hammer had even commanded a few hundred people, while Captain Feng sometimes commanded a few dozen people. In fact, under normal circumstances, the captains and platoon captains didn't have too many direct subordinates. Today's mission required three hundred people, so the captains would assign the task to a platoon captain. Then, the platoon captain would ask the platoon captain to propose the type of personnel he wanted. Finally, the platoon captain would choose the appropriate personnel. Once the number of people was reached, the platoon captain would take command of the platoon captain. Therefore, a platoon captain like Captain Feng didn't have a lot of people in his platoon, only about ten people. These people usually followed Captain Feng, and the other platoon captains didn't have the authority to mobilize them. When the mission required more people, the Saber Guard Corps would assign the corresponding number of people to Captain Feng. This way, it would prevent a platoon captain from directly commanding a thousand-man platoon to rebel.
Of course, this method wasn't suitable for other armies. If it was used in other armies, then the soldiers wouldn't know their generals, and the generals wouldn't know their soldiers, then the army would fall into chaos.
However, the Saber Guard Corps was different. Every person in the Saber Guard Corps was an elite, and they all had their own unique skills. Moreover, the missions that they carried out were different from ordinary missions. Therefore, this method of command was suitable.
But no matter what, a platoon captain in the Saber Guard Corps was a person with real power. In the Saber Guard Corps, there were more than ten platoon captains. This showed how much power these platoon captains had.
The Saber Guard Corps was different from other armies, their fighting strength was very strong. A thousand Saber Guard Corps warriors could defeat a regular army ten times their number. This was the strength of the Saber Guard Corps. It can be said that being a platoon captain in the Saber Guard Corps was much better than being a platoon captain in an ordinary army.
And today, this platoon captain who came to see Captain Feng had a nickname in the Saber Guard Corps, the Cold Faced Asura. He had never seen this name before, but he was very strong. People said that his fighting strength was as strong as an Asura's, and his methods were also as ruthless as an Asura's. Therefore, he got this nickname. His real name was Nong Renli, but this nickname was completely inconsistent with his real name.
Seeing that everyone had understood, Nong Renli opened his mouth and said, "Mission, go to the Wolf Soul Country and rescue someone. This person is one of the spies that we sent to the Wolf Soul Country. On the surface, his identity is that of a prairie merchant. But a few days ago, his caravan was robbed in the prairie. Most of the people accompanying him were killed, but his body was not found. Your mission is to enter the prairie, find him, and rescue him."
