Hu Bailing and Hu Chongming stared at Li Yunzi in shock.
Zhu Weicai, the commander of the Bronze Blade Troop, who had just joined them, stared at Li Yunzi with his eyes wide open.
"Lichuan Country? Isn't that the new country that just joined the Polar Court Continent not long ago?" Advisor Yao asked.
"You're the advisor who conquered the capital of Rui?"
The legendary battle in Lichuan had already spread among the rulers. Even those in the western region of the dynasty had heard about it.
"What a surprise! I've heard so much about you!" Zhu Weicai of the Bronze Blade Troop immediately cupped his hands.
With a backward civilization and a small army, they had defeated the Rui Kingdom, which had the support of the Imperial Court. Furthermore, they had made the land of Lichuan an independent country and received the protection of the Imperial Court. This was not something that just anyone could do!
The Hu siblings were even more excited after learning Li Yunzi's identity.
With such a legendary ruler, Raindrop City could definitely be revived!
However, on second thought, something did not feel right.
There were only a few people in their group.
Even a famous ruler would find it hard to win a battle without his own army!
"But your army is tens of thousands of miles away. If we declare our allegiance now, it'll give the Brown Spear Troop a chance to declare war on us. After all, this is a war zone. Any country can kill each other without being punished by the laws of the dynasty," Hu Bailing said.
"It'll take at least half a year for the army to arrive here from Li Chuan. We can recruit some Dragon Shepherds with the titles of Battle Shadow, Battle Edge, and Battle Hero. I'm just wondering if you've brought enough money with you. Dragon Shepherds with the titles of Battle Hero are very expensive," said Zhu Weicai.
"What do those titles mean?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"You're a dragon shepherd too. Don't you know?" Zhu Weicai was confused.
"I belong to a faction. I don't know much about the titles of dragon shepherds in the ruling class," Zhu Minglang said.
Dragon shepherds were involved in every battle.
Dragon Shepherds could play the most important role in a war. After all, every well-trained dragon could play an unparalleled role in a war.
"Normally, the honorable titles given to the Dragon Herders wandering on the battlefield are 'Shadow of War', 'Edge of War', 'Hero of War', and the most famous' Hunter of Nations'. The Taiga Land is a war zone, and it has plenty of experienced Dragon Herders. However, these Dragon Herders only work for gold, "Zhu Weicai said.
Zhu Weicai had been roaming around this tawny land for many years and had encountered many experts.
Some teams of Dragon Shepard only had twenty people, but they were as strong as the three thousand elite soldiers of the Bronze Blade Army. They could even wipe out the Bronze Blade Army effortlessly.
That was why Zhu Weicai was in awe of those Dragon Shepherds, especially those who were known as War Masters. They could fight an army of ten thousand by themselves!
"A few people in my team have titles, too. I'm the best, but I'm not known as Hero of War," Hu Chongming pointed at himself with a wry smile.
"How much does a Dragon Shepard with the title of Hero of War earn?" Zhu Minglang asked casually.
"It's about the same as the three thousand soldiers of the Bronze Blade Army, but they only fight in one battle, unlike us," Zhu Weicai said helplessly.
Even though they earned about the same amount of money, the Bronze Blade Army was a long-term employer.
A Dragon Shepard only did one job, and his team only had one or two hundred people at most. The Bronze Blade Army had three thousand soldiers, so each of them wouldn't earn too much.
In the end, they still had to work hard!
"We can't declare our allegiance. Once we do, we'll become the fifth nation in the Taiga Land. The Taiga Land is a national war zone. If we become the fifth nation, we'll be forced to join the national war. The other four nations won't have any reason to attack us. It'll only make it harder for us to deal with them, "Hu Bailing suddenly shook his head. He believed the plan was more harmful than beneficial.
"Even if it belongs to the Tu Nation, it will still be invaded by other nations. Once the Tu Nation loses in the next Nation War, our Run Rain City will have to change owners again. There will be another army stationed in the city."
"Actually, the biggest problem in Runyu City isn't the evil forces in the city. The main problem is the Kingdom War. Once the Kingdom War starts, the newly established order in Runyu City will be trampled by the new ruler." Zhu Weicai of the Bronze Saber Army sighed.
National war …
The main culprit that trampled on Runyu City was the national war.
Due to the conflicts between the four nations, Runyu City kept changing rulers. Even if Zhu Minglang and the others managed to gain a foothold here, it was hard to say what the future ruler would be like. They might very well destroy the Runyu City that they had worked so hard to rebuild.
"By the way, I remember there's a law in the Dynasty. Lichuan Nation will be under the protection of a ceasefire before the New Year's celebration. If any nation starts a war against Lichuan Nation before the celebration, they will be punished by the Extreme Court Dynasty. Yunzi, are you thinking of taking advantage of this law?" Zhu Minglang suddenly recalled this matter and asked Li Yunzi.
"Yes, Runyu City needs to develop. It will be affected by the national war for the time being," Li Yunzi nodded.
This law of the Dynasty was authoritative.
As long as it existed, the Divine Mortal Academy, the overseer of the Taiga Land, would become the overseer. They wouldn't allow any nation or city to start a war against Runyu City.
This way, as long as they expelled the other tumors in the city, Runyu City would have a peaceful period of development.
The national war would be exempted for three months!
They might not be able to deploy the Empress's army, but at least they would have time to recruit soldiers and hire experts to make preparations for the stability of Runyu City!
Moreover, the 50,000 Brown Spear Army was the Tu Country's army. They had to leave Runyu City unconditionally. Otherwise, it would be considered an invasion.
The Dynasty was too far away to help, but the Divine Mortal Academy was standing on this Taiga Land. They wouldn't sit by and do nothing!
"Making use of Lichuan Nation's current ceasefire law to let the Divine Mortal Academy become our protective umbrella. This is a brilliant idea, a brilliant idea!!" Military Advisor Yao exclaimed as he slapped his thigh.
Stopping the national war.
They even chased away the biggest tumor in Runyu City — the 50,000 Tu Country's army!
The first banishment law was to reorganize Runyu City.
The second law was to announce the ownership of Runyu City, effortlessly sending the Tu Country's army away.
Runyu City was independent of the four nations and was even protected by the ceasefire.
The messy Runyu City was like a piece of dry and cracked dead land. It was nourished by the raindrops, and people could see that it was glowing with vitality!
Suddenly, the Hu siblings were in high spirits. Even Commander Zhu Weicai, who had just joined the Copper Blade Army, felt something surging in his chest. When they looked at Imperial Advisor Li Yunzi again, they couldn't help but feel admiration!
They had exhausted everything to solve the huge obstacle that they couldn't solve.
She had solved it with a simple sentence!
