Half a day later.
Zhan Ruyi went to the Black Dragon Division and argued with Nie Wuxiao. They were both newcomers, so why was Niu Youde able to get along with his men while she couldn't?
Nie Wuxiao agreed to her request. Whatever conditions she gave Miao Yi, she would give Miao Yi the same conditions. It was fair and reasonable.
Half a day later, just half a day after Miao Yi left with his men, Zhan Ruyi led the Blue Tiger Banner's men to the outskirts of Heaven Street on Tianyuan Planet. In front of him were the empty fences left behind by the Black Tiger Banner's men. There was no sign of anyone from the Black Tiger Banner.
The merchants going in and out of the city quickly ran back into the city, confused as to what was going on.
Soon, the merchants in the city came out to investigate. 'What's going on?'
Fu Qing also led the guards out of the city. He stood outside the city gates and looked around. Among the troops that landed on the ground, there was a huge flag with a ferocious blue tiger embroidered on it. It was obvious that it was the Blue Tiger Flag. Especially the leader, many people were familiar with her. Zhan Ruyi, the granddaughter of Heavenly King Ying, many people knew her.
"What's going on? Why is this woman here?" Fu Qing asked.
Qing Feng shook his head, "I don't know. Did he suddenly retreat because he knew this woman was coming?"
Someone walked out from the merchants. 'Huangfujun?' Y floated over. A row of sabers and spears under the Black Tiger Banner stood up in alert. Zhan Ruyi raised his hand and ordered the men behind him to lower their weapons.
"Why are you here?" Y landed in front of Zhan Ruyi and asked curiously.
Zhan Ruyi strolled in front of a row of fences, his gaze sweeping across the empty camp. Hearing the question, he stopped and reached out a hand to grab onto the fence. Turning back, he asked, "Where did Niu Youde and his men go?"
'Huangfujun?' Y said, "He left and you came right after. It was only half a day."
"Left?" Zhan Ruyi saw the situation before him. What he worried about the most had happened. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Why did he leave?"
'I want to know why he left? Huangfujun? ' Y hesitated, "Are you here to cause trouble for him? Did he know you were coming? Is that why he left? "
Hearing this, Zhan Ruyi found some consolation. Perhaps he was afraid that he would run away.
However, she was still dumbfounded. It took her a lot of effort to get permission from the higher-ups to let her come out and train the troops. Now that Miao Yi had run away, she didn't even know where he had gone. What was she doing here? Was he really going to bring his men and horses around to get used to each other?
At this moment, Heavenly Street's Great Commander Fu Qing also brought a few people over. He landed on the ground and cupped his fists, "Great Commander Zhan. Why have you brought the Blue Tiger Banner's men here? "
"Come and take a look." Zhan Ruyi replied perfunctorily. Naturally, she wouldn't reveal the truth that would embarrass her. Since she was already here, it wouldn't be good for her to leave in such a hurry. It would make it seem as though she was chasing after Niu Youde's butt. Not to mention, she also wanted to know where Miao Yi had gone. She turned around and ordered her subordinates to set up camp at the ruins left behind by the Black Tiger Banner.
Fu Qing was gloomy. The Black Tiger Flag had just left, and now the Blue Tiger Flag had come to set up camp in front of his house. What the hell was he doing? What did he think his territory was?
However, Zhan Ruyi did not offend him at all. In addition, his subordinates were not a match for Zhan Ruyi.
But this time, the Heaven Street of Heaven's Origin Planet was very peaceful. None of the merchants in the city were afraid of Zhan Ruyi. Everyone was just here to watch the show.
Miao Yi's movements were not difficult to track down. One day later, he would be sitting quietly in the command tent with Huangfu Jun. Zhan Ruyi, who was chatting with Y, received the message and almost vomited blood in anger.
Miao Yi had long since led his troops back to Planet Six Fingers to reward the three armies. It was one thing to reward the three armies. Most importantly, the rewards for his subordinates weren't Miao Yi's, so it wasn't hard to figure out where he would get them from. As soon as Miao Yi left, the owners of the various shops didn't see what they expected to happen. He immediately felt that something was amiss.
It was fine if they didn't see Miao Yi's provocation, but why did Zhang Miao Yi immediately lead his men away as soon as the shops opened? Naturally, the owners had to investigate the situation. Some things could be done, but they didn't dare to deceive their superiors. The shopkeepers of the major shops revealed the truth about spending money to avoid disasters.
The owners were so angry that their teeth itched, but they couldn't say anything to the shopkeepers. The shopkeepers were paying out of their own pockets for the sake of their business!
Combining the cause and effect, they finally understood Niu Youde's motive. He didn't want to make a big deal out of this. He came all the way to extort them, and left immediately after he got what he wanted. Yet, they couldn't say that he was extorting them. He didn't force them. They were the ones who offered the gifts as an apology.
How could Zhan Ruyi not vomit blood in anger? Niu Youde didn't run away because he was afraid of her, but because he had succeeded in extorting her.
What tormented her even more was that Niu Youde was rewarding the three armies. She didn't want to lose out to Miao Yi in the limelight, but she didn't have anyone to extort, so how could she afford to reward the three armies? Of course, it wasn't that the Zhan family couldn't afford it, but if they wanted to reward a hundred thousand troops, it was not a small sum. Someone had to be crazy to pay out of their own pockets to do such a thing. If they really did it, they would become a laughingstock.
Zhan Ruyi couldn't stand being outshone by Miao Yi in every way. She didn't want to admit that she wasn't as good as Miao Yi. The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. Her face was pale.
'Huangfu Jun, who's in the command tent?' Y was speechless when she heard the truth. She thought Miao Yi was really here to bathe Celestial Street in blood, but it turned out that it wasn't a bloodbath, but a robbery in disguise. He extorted money from the shops on Celestial Street to buy people's hearts. She didn't know what to say about that guy. She had to admit that he was quite capable.
"Tsk tsk! He got so much money from just one trip. "
"The Great Commander is so generous!"
"That's right! At least we don't have to worry that he'll swallow our benefits if we follow him. "
Some were happy, while others were worried. Some were angry, but the Black Tiger Banner's troops were cheering.
Actually, the amount of money distributed to everyone wasn't much. On average, each person was worth about ten thousand Basic Immortal Pills. It was equivalent to several years' worth of salary in one go, but there were too many people! They weren't fools. On average, ten thousand Basic Immortal Pills were distributed to hundreds of thousands of people. What did it mean when added together? There was no need for the Great Commander to distribute this amount of money to everyone. No one would say anything if he didn't.
Perhaps it wasn't much when spread out, but the total amount was there. Who wouldn't be at ease when dealing with a superior like him? What else could they say?
Mu Yulian and Qu Yahong were surprised. Miao Yi said that the reason they could get rich this time was because of the opportunity they obtained from the Black Dragon Banner. Their contributions couldn't go unnoticed, so they were rewarded with ten million Basic Immortal Pills each. After rewarding the two of them, the rest of the money was distributed according to the usual practice.
The two of them thought Miao Yi was going to make use of them, so they were surprised when they received such a huge reward. Even though their cultivation had reached this level, the reward was still not a small amount to them. It was not a small amount no matter where you put it. After serving as the Left Commandant for so many years, this was the first time they received such a huge reward.
Regardless of what had happened before, Miao Yi did not mistreat the two of them. Their impression of Miao Yi immediately changed quite a bit. Judging from the Grand Commander's attitude, it seemed like their days in Black Tiger Banner wouldn't be too difficult after this.
"Retreated? Extorted a sum of money from those merchants and used it to reward the army? "
Inside the Starry Hall, Qing Zhu was stunned by the question, his face full of astonishment.
Sima Wentian replied, "Yes! We all thought he was going to cause trouble. Who would've thought he was actually going to extort money … Well, it's not exactly extortion. They came to us on their own accord. "
"Haha!" Lord Qing finally couldn't help but burst into laughter. "This monkey is quite interesting. Wentian, didn't you say that he purposely leaked the news to give himself a way out? Did you think he would do something like this? "
Sima Wentian cupped his fists and sighed. "I truly didn't."
Lord Qing suddenly stood up and placed his hands behind his back. "There's no need to doubt his abilities anymore. What he needs now are battle merits!"
Qiong Star, Three Origins Hall.
"Hehe! All the nobles in the imperial court have been fooled by him. With the Left Commandant as his shield, he's becoming more and more fearless. "Leaning on his chair, Heavenly King Kou shook his head helplessly.
His servant, Old Tang, looked at the three sons of the Kou family and smiled bitterly. "Who would've thought! That brat doesn't play by the rules at all. However, he's becoming more and more eye-catching. Showing off his little tricks in front of everyone in the imperial court has really caught their attention. I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for him now. "
"Mm!" Heavenly King Kou narrowed his eyes and nodded. "The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."
In the distance of Planet Six-Finger, over thirty thousand troops were marching towards it.
Before they could even get close to Planet Six-Finger, a small troop of a hundred men had already rushed out from a barren planet and blocked the path of the approaching troops. The general in charge waved his spear and bellowed, "No trespassing is allowed here. Who goes there?!"
The army approached and stopped. Someone shouted back, "The Blue Tiger Banner's Great Commander has personally led the army to pay a visit to the Black Tiger Banner's Great Commander Niu. Quickly send word!"
Zhan Ruyi stood in front of the army with an expressionless face.
After learning that Miao Yi had returned to his base, she couldn't immediately chase after him. She purposely lingered outside the Celestial Street for a few days before breaking camp and rushing over with her troops. This time, she would definitely teach Miao Yi a lesson.
Everyone looked at each other. They all knew that Zhan Ruyi and Niu Youde didn't have a good relationship. What was he trying to do by bringing so many people? The general in charge quickly took out his Star Bell and contacted his superiors.
Inside the Six Fingers School's defensive formation, Xu Tangran received the news and quickly came to the Great Commander's temporary residence to report.
"Zhan Ruyi is here?" Miao Yi furrowed his brows and muttered, "I'm afraid he doesn't come with good intentions. Is this woman done yet?"
Xu Tangran nodded. "Yes. According to our reports, I'm afraid he brought no less than thirty thousand men with him."
Miao Yi said, "Pass down my orders. She is only allowed to bring ten men. If she dares to force her way in, report to me immediately."
