Lang Jiang was a subordinate of the general and was the one who directly commanded a battalion. Lang Jiang, as the second-in-command, actually didn't show up in this formal meeting with the commander of a battalion. Although this was because Sei Itō didn't inform him in advance, as a subordinate, how could he not have the common sense to arrive early and wait to see his superior? Even if he was a good-for-nothing who only knew how to drink and drink, how could his subordinates be as unreasonable as him? Needless to say, it was obvious that Lang Jiang didn't like Sei Itō and thought that he had no right to climb over his head. Lang Jiang deliberately did this to put him in his place.
The other generals who thought of the same thing also looked at Sei Itō with different expressions but didn't say anything.
"Heh ~" Sei Itō sneered and asked again, "Apart from him, who else isn't here?"
"General Hou Cen, General Hou Cen, and General Wang Shili aren't here," one of the generals replied.
"I didn't want to kill anyone, but since they don't give me face, they can't blame me for not giving them face either." Sei Itō sneered. Then, without waiting for the generals to respond, he spread out his psychic energy and used his hypnosis ability on them.
In this chaotic era where the emperor was muddle-headed, the world was in chaos, and the army didn't care about defending the country or protecting their families, these generals' willpower wasn't strong at all. Thus, Sei Itō used less than ten minutes to hypnotize all the generals present into living puppets loyal only to him.
"Sir!" The generals who came back to their senses cupped their fists and saluted in unison.
"Pass down my order. As long as Qi Huan, Hou Cen, and Wang Shili appear, immediately arrest them!" Sei Itō ordered coldly.
"Yes." The generals accepted the order.
"He is Li Xingge. From now on, he will be in charge of the battalion and will take over all the affairs in the battalion on my behalf. You just need to follow his orders," Sei Itō pointed at Li Xingge standing beside him and said.
"Yes." The generals looked at each other and replied in unison.
Sei Itō turned to Li Xingke and said, "I'll leave this place to you. As for those three people, kill them to boost our morale!"
"Yes." Li Xing cupped her fists and bowed.
Sei Itō nodded and stood up from his seat. He walked out of the large tent under the bows of the various generals. He led the modified black horse that was parked outside the tent and mounted it. With a shake of the reins, he urged the horse to leave the military camp and return to the general's manor.
Not long after Sei Itō left the Zuo Wuwei camp, Qi Huan, Hou Cen, and Wang Shili, who had received news from the spies in the camp, walked into the camp in an unbridled manner, accompanied by a dozen soldiers. Before they could react, the soldiers who had received the order immediately pounced on them and tied them up.
After that, Li Xingke, who had become Sei Itō's temporary manager of the camp, ordered the soldiers to behead Qi Huan and the others in front of all the soldiers on the drill ground. This was the first time he had established his authority.
After that, Li Xingke took advantage of the killing power she had just established to reorganize the camp and train the soldiers.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed …
Of course, while Li Xingke was reorganizing the Zuo Wuwei camp, Sei Itō was not idling in the dark. Like a diligent little bee, he would circle the entire Chang 'an City a few times every night and secretly set up a huge defensive formation. This stronghold that was used to invade the world was impregnable!
At the same time, taking advantage of the Zuo Wuwei taking over the defense of Chang 'an City, Sei Itō did not hesitate to use hypnosis on the generals who came to see him, turning them into living puppets loyal to him one by one.
"He's finally gone," Sei Itō, who was sitting on a pear blossom carved wooden chair in the General's Mansion, exhaled softly.
The person he was referring to was His Majesty, the Emperor of this era, Yang Guang. After more than a month of preparation, Yang Guang, who had been waiting for Sei Itō to take over the military affairs of Chang 'an City, finally decided to head to the temporary imperial residence in Yangzhou in advance and put this idea into action! That morning, Yang Guang's imperial carriage, accompanied by a large number of imperial concubines, maids, and court officials, left Chang 'an City through the East Gate and headed in the direction of Yangzhou.
"What do you all say, why don't we go out and have some fun?" Sei Itō raised his head and smiled at Zhen Ye, Ya Ye, Fanchan Meiyun, and the archery expert Hikari Meili and Fu Junzhuo.
Zhen Ye, Ya Ye, Fanchan Meiyun, and Hikari Meili were all here because Sei Itō wanted to raise their strength and let them experience a higher level of zhenqi martial arts so that they could break through their current limits. And the first opponent they faced off against was Sei Itō's personal sword attendant, Fu Junzhuo.
Fu Junzhuo had learned from Fu Cailin, which specialized in attacking the enemy's weak points and guiding the enemy's attacks. This was the first time Zhen Ye and Ya Ye had encountered such an opponent, so they were in a somewhat difficult situation. But soon, with Ya Ye's ability to foresee the Dragon Eye and Zhen Ye's martial arts, which were completely different from those of the Great Tang, they regained their balance and fought a very impressive battle.
As for Fanchan Meiyun and Hikari Meili, one of them was extremely fast and had incredible combat experience, completely ignoring Fu Junzhuo's attacks. The other was extremely fierce as long as she kept a distance and was not weak in close combat. Neither of them could be defeated by Fu Junzhuo's incomplete Sword Fighting Art. In the end, it became a true battle of experience, where they could sense each other's Qi of movement and stillness, as well as the Xiantian Internal Qi cultivated from the Nine Mysteries Art.
In general, in terms of quality, Fu Junzhuo's Xiantian Internal Qi cultivated from the Nine Mysteries Art was much higher than that of Zhen Ye, Ya Ye, Fanchan Meiyun, and Hikari Meili. In terms of attribute, Zhen Ye and Ya Ye's Qi was superior. In terms of explosive power, Fanchan Meiyun and Hikari Meili's Qi of movement and stillness were stronger.
"Okay," Ya Ye happily replied.
"What do you plan to do here?" Zhen Ye asked.
"Leave it to Li Xingke," Sei Itō replied.
"If you're not afraid of a problem, then do as you please," Zhen Ye said.
"Relax. Let's not even talk about how many people in this world can break through the defensive barrier of his armor. Even if they can, I'll immediately sense it and use a technique to appear at his side and kill the enemy," Sei Itō said, his face brimming with confidence.
"I hope to see even more experts," Fanchan Meiyun suddenly said. It was clear that after sparring with Fu Junzhuo, Fanchan Meiyun had developed an intense interest in the martial arts system of the Great Tang.
"Definitely. I'm not planning to just go sightseeing this time," Sei Itō said with a smile.
As for Hikari Meili, Fu Junzhuo, and Wei Zhenzhen said nothing. Hikari Meili didn't care, but Fu Junzhuo and Wei Zhenzhen were completely following Sei Itō's orders. Thus, after receiving a unanimous agreement, Sei Itō didn't waste any words. He immediately had the others return to their rooms to pack up while he ran to the side and took out some materials from the Rubik's Cube to continue modifying the carriage.
After all, there were no longer two people accompanying him, but six. There wasn't enough room in the carriage!
Soon, the interior of the carriage had expanded to more than sixty square meters and was divided into several rooms. Many daily necessities were placed in these rooms, and the renovation was complete.
Later, Ito Sei took two horses that had been modified. The horseshoes and masks were engraved with magic circles that could speed up, reduce weight, enhance stamina, and restore energy. He tied the horses with ropes with the same magic circle pattern and asked the servants to lead them to the street outside the General's Mansion.
Not long after, Wei Zhenzhen, who had a bundle on her arm and had become even more beautiful because of her dual cultivation with Sei Itō, Ya Ye, who knew that Sei Itō had the Rubik's Cube and didn't lack any daily necessities, and only chose two sets of clothes that were suitable for this era to change into, as well as Mayo, Kanban Miyun, Hikari Meili, and Hikari Meili, who didn't even bother to bring a change of clothes, and Fu Junzhuo, who only held a sword in his hand, walked out of the estate and entered the carriage one after another.
After everyone had entered the carriage, Sei Itō stepped into the carriage and ordered, "Destination: Luoyang. Let's go!"
"Neigh …" It wasn't clear if they really understood Sei Itō's words, but the two tall horses with shiny black fur neighed and pulled the carriage toward the east gate of Chang 'an.
Along the way, the spirited appearance of the horses attracted the attention of a group of people.
Luoyang, the eastern capital of this era, was no less prosperous than Chang 'an. Moreover, because it was close to the Central Plains, it was a place where scholars and literati gathered. The cultural life here was much richer than Chang' an, which was often harassed by foreign tribes. Therefore, in terms of nightlife, Luoyang far surpassed Chang 'an.
Sei Itō chose Luoyang as his first destination. Other than seeing the bustling cities of this era, he also wanted to do something else. He wanted to find trouble with Bichen, who had disguised himself as Rong Fengxiang, so that he could snatch the Book of Heavenly Demons from him!
Of course, if the time was right, he could also break into the Shingzhai, which was called Cixing Ji Zhai in the future. After all, if he wanted Mayo, Ya Ye, and Kanban Miyun to break through, he couldn't do it without a suitable amount of pressure.
After a few days, Sei Itō's group finally arrived at Luoyang after setting off from Chang 'an and going through Shangluo.
"Wow, it's so majestic." Ya Ye was wearing a white shirt and white trousers. His long brown hair was tied into a ponytail. At first glance, he gave off a strange feeling as he exclaimed in admiration.
"Indeed, it's much better than Luoyang in the Heavenly Reliance world," Sei Itō sighed as he looked at Luoyang, which was many times more prosperous than the Heavenly Reliance world.
