"Sure enough, it has begun. Uncle Yu, the Ice Soaring Nation and the Icebound Nation are already preparing to make a move against us. These two nations have also sent some people to other nations. Moreover, they are also reorganizing their armaments. It seems like they are really preparing to make a move." Tang Ming said to Yu Yunlong.
It has been ten days since his meeting with Yu Yunlong. During these ten days, the people sent by Zhao Hai had also arrived. These people were already prepared by Zhao Hai. They were here to take control of the Ice Jade Nation's army. These people were also soldiers in the Lost Soul Empire, so they were very familiar with the military. Although the situation of the Ice Jade Nation was different from the Lost Soul Empire, as long as they studied it carefully, they would be able to quickly get used to it.
However, these soldiers had just arrived three days ago. They were still studying in the Imperial Army and had yet to take over the army. In fact, these people weren't specially prepared by Zhao Hai. The number of troops in the Lost Soul Empire wasn't small. These troops were also divided into divisions, brigades, regiments, battalions, companies, platoons, squads, and other units by Zhao Hai according to Earth's method. Zhao Hai also set up deputies in these units. These deputies were actually prepared for this time. When they take over the army of a nation, these deputies would be sent out. This way, the combat strength of the Empire's army wouldn't be affected. These people also had management experience, so they wouldn't be able to get used to the new army very quickly. As for the vacant deputy positions in the original army, they could be directly promoted by the veterans, so there wouldn't be any problems.
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai didn't waste any effort in transferring people to take over the Ice Jade Nation's army. They were quickly sent out.
This time, Zhao Hai sent out a lot of people, about two thousand people. These two thousand people were now under Tang Ming's management. Tang Ming and Yu Yunlong placed them in the Imperial Army to familiarize them with the situation of the Ice Jade Nation's army.
At this moment, Tang Ming received the news. He knew that the Ice Soaring Nation and the Icebound Nation might attack the Ice Jade Nation, so he immediately told Yu Yunlong about it.
Yu Yunlong nodded and said in a deep voice, "Have the people from the Ice Soaring Nation and the Ice Sealed Nation already made contact with the people from those nations?"
Tang Ming nodded and said, "Right, we've already started to get in touch with the people from those countries. Even the envoys from the two countries have already met with the Kings of those countries."
Bang! Yu Yunlong forcefully slapped the table and cursed, "These heartless and unscrupulous bastards. When our Ice Jade Country rebelled, I immediately told them that the Ice Soaring Country and Icebound Country were behind the rebellion. I told them to be careful because we are in the same alliance. I didn't want them to fall into the Ice Soaring Country and Icebound Country's trap. But now, the two countries sent people to contact them, but none of them told me this news. Hateful, too hateful."
Tang Ming stared, then he immediately understood Yu Yunlong's meaning. He looked at Yu Yunlong and said, "Uncle Yu, what should we do next? Do you want me to send people to the Ice Soaring Country and Icebound Country to teach them a lesson? "
Yu Yunlong stared, then he shook his head and said, "No, the people left in the two countries are very useful. If we let them move, they would be exposed, which wouldn't do us any good. We can't send people either. Ever since the Iceshot Country and the Icebound Country surrendered to the Tree Spirit Continent, they should be watching their territories even more closely. As long as there's something wrong with the people outside, they would be targeted. I'm afraid it won't be easy to take action. Let's not waste our manpower, let's do it ourselves."
Tang Ming looked at Yu Yunlong and said, "Then what do you plan to do, Uncle Yu?"
Yu Yunlong replied, "We don't have much time now. To be honest, I don't trust the people of the Ice Jade Country anymore. The people of the Ice Soaring Country and Icebound Country have people from the Spiritual Realm behind them. Although we aren't afraid of them, the identity of the Spiritual Realm can still intimidate people. It's because of this that Fei 'er dared to rebel. Fei' er is my son, yet he dared to rebel, so there's no need to talk about others. If the people of the two countries use the identity of the Spiritual Realm to talk to the Ice Jade Country, then it's hard to guarantee that the Great Clans won't make a move. Because of this, we can no longer wait. Tomorrow, have the people of the Empire take over the Ice Jade Country's army. At the same time, issue a conscription order. All Adventurers of the Ice Jade Country must listen to the order and form a new army. The Clans can't leave too many people behind, otherwise, they will be punished for treason. At the same time, have the people of the Empire report to His Majesty and ask for support."
Tang Ming calmly listened to Yu Yunlong's words. After some time, he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll immediately send a letter to Boss and have him make preparations. Uncle Yu, you can take care of things here."
Yu Yunlong looked at Tang Ming and said, "Tang Ming, doesn't His Majesty have a lot of people in the Ice Jade Country? Are there no Adventurers among these people? "
Tang Ming smiled and said, "Of course there are Adventurers. However, Boss can only take in a few Adventurers. Most of the Adventurers aren't Boss's subordinates. If we only capture those who aren't His Majesty's subordinates, then wouldn't the rest be too conspicuous? Therefore, it's better to capture them all. "
"Hahaha, you're right. It's better to capture them all. I'll take care of this matter. You should quickly send a letter to His Majesty." Tang Ming nodded. Then he cupped his fist towards Yu Yunlong and turned around to leave.
After Tang Ming left, Yu Yunlong turned his head to Zhang Zhen and smiled bitterly, "It seems like Zhao Hai has managed the Ice Jade Country well. His subordinates in the Ice Jade Country are certainly not few. Moreover, there are some people that we can't even imagine."
Zhang Zhen nodded and said, "Right. If Zhao Hai only bought people from the bottom, then His Majesty's decision to lock up all the Adventurers in the barracks is equivalent to capturing most of the people that Zhao Hai bought. Tang Ming certainly wouldn't be this calm. But now, it seems like Tang Ming isn't worried at all. This means that his intelligence network didn't suffer too much damage. Zhao Hai really isn't simple."
Yu Yunlong nodded, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Jiao 'er. Fortune favors fools. He actually got to know Zhao Hai. Hahaha. If he didn't know Zhao Hai, then with Zhao Hai's methods, the Ice Jade Country would have already fallen into his hands. I'm afraid that you and I would have been fed to the fishes."
Zhang Zhen nodded. They had already seen Zhao Hai's methods. If Zhao Hai really wanted to deal with them, then it would be very easy. Moreover, Jade Flood Dragon's luck was truly invincible. He actually got to know Zhao Hai and turned a bad thing into a good thing.
Yu Yunlong said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Now that we're people from the Lost Soul Empire, we need to be prepared. Zhang Zhen, go and prepare. Send those people to the army and prepare the imperial edict. Have them take control of the barracks in the shortest time possible. At the same time, send the imperial edict to the entire country. We need to let the Great Clans know that we're going to reorganize the army in the shortest time possible."
Zhang Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. I'll immediately arrange it. Your Majesty can rest assured."
Yu Yunlong nodded, then said, "After you're done with this, call Tang Ming over and get him to send out all the people from our intelligence department. Keep a close eye on all the big families. If they do anything strange, immediately quell them."
Zhang Zhen replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." Then he gave Yu Yunlong a salute before he turned around and left.
In the following three days, the entire Ice Jade Country knew that Yu Yunlong was going to reorganize the Ice Jade Country's army. Therefore, the head of the army was changed.
This matter wasn't a small matter. It was impossible for the Great Clans of the Ice Jade Country to not extend their hands to the army. But Yu Yunlong's sudden reorganization of the army could be said to have affected the interests of the Great Clans. However, the Great Clans had no choice but to endure this. This was because they made a wrong decision during Yu Feilong's rebellion. They didn't stand together with Yu Yunlong. This made Yu Yunlong very dissatisfied, which led to the reorganization of the army.
Actually, the Great Clans also understood that when Yu Feilong rebelled, not only did they not stand together with Yu Yunlong, they even helped Yu Feilong behind his back. Otherwise, how could Yu Feilong control so much of the Ice Jade Country's Defense Army? Although they didn't directly help Yu Feilong, they still helped him a lot. Therefore, in this matter, they were indeed in the wrong.
It was precisely because of this that they felt a little guilty when facing Yu Yunlong. They didn't dare to oppose Yu Yunlong's reorganization of the army.
In their view, the Great Clans had a lot of people in the army. Even if Yu Yunlong wanted to reorganize the army, he wouldn't be able to go too far. In the end, the number of troops under their control wouldn't be reduced. Therefore, they didn't try to stop him.
Three days after this decree was issued in the name of Yu Yunlong, the new commanders of the military camps arrived. When these new commanders arrived, they immediately sealed off the military camps and forbade them from contacting the outside world. Nobody knew what happened in the military camps. They only knew that ten days after these new commanders entered the military camps, the military camps were opened and the disciples of the various clans were transferred to some unimportant departments. Some of them were even transferred out of the army. However, these new commanders were able to firmly control the military camps.
This discovery made the Great Clans worried. They didn't think that things would turn out like this. At this time, even if they wanted to resist, it would be meaningless. The barracks were already under the control of the new commanders. If they were to cause trouble, then Yu Yunlong would send the army to deal with them. Because of this, the Great Clans could only endure this. However, some of them were dissatisfied with Yu Yunlong's decision.
In fact, the Great Clans didn't think about what they were dissatisfied with. The army was originally under the control of the Yu Family. The Yu Family was the Imperial Family of the Ice Jade Country. They used all kinds of methods to snatch what belonged to the Yu Family. Now, the Yu Family was just taking back what belonged to them. In this case, there was nothing for them to be angry about.
However, people were like this. If they didn't have something, then they might not care about it. But once they have it, whether it was snatched, stolen, or given to them by others, then they would think that it should be theirs. Once they don't have it, then they would be angry and hold a grudge. People were actually the same.
The Great Clans were dissatisfied with Yu Yunlong. Actually, Yu Yunlong also knew about this. If it was in the past, then he would've cared about the thoughts of these Great Clans. But now, he didn't need to care about them. He was very clear about the situation of these Great Clans. Even if they wanted to do something, as long as the Lost Soul Empire was present, then Yu Yunlong wouldn't have to worry about it.
On the third day after the barracks were no longer sealed, another decree was issued. All the Adventurers in the Ice Jade Country's cities were to enter the barracks and be incorporated into the new army. They would receive formal military training and would be paid to become the Ice Jade Country's new army.
When this order was issued, the Ice Jade Country's cities were in chaos. Some of the lowest level Adventurers didn't feel angry. On the contrary, they were very happy. They were people who had been running around for three meals a day. Now that they have a place to eat and even get paid, of course they would be happy. However, some of the Great Adventurers weren't happy. These Great Adventurers had their own businesses and their monthly income wasn't low. Now that all of their Adventurers were incorporated into the army, of course they wouldn't be happy.
However, just as the cities were in chaos, the Ice Jade Country's army directly entered the cities and sealed them. Then they began to arrest the Adventurers in the city. All the Adventurers were arrested and sent to the barracks. If there was any resistance, then they would be beaten down.
But even so, the Ice Jade Country was shaken. They could see Yu Yunlong's determination this time. Even if the Adventurers had a lot of people, they still didn't dare to directly confront the army. In the end, they obediently entered the barracks.
When the adventurers entered the barracks, the barracks were once again sealed off. No one was allowed to go out, and no one was allowed to communicate with the outside world. This made the Ice Jade Country's Great Clans go into an uproar. This was because many of the adventurers belonged to their clans. Now that they were arrested, of course they weren't happy. But even if they were unhappy, they couldn't do anything about it. Unless they immediately rebelled, they could only suffer in silence and accept it.
But then the Great Clans discovered that there was still a force in the city that Yu Yunlong hadn't made a move on. Maybe Yu Yunlong didn't notice it, or maybe he noticed it but didn't take it to heart. Therefore, this force didn't make a move. It was the dark force, the gangs in the city!
