When Feng Yuan walked out of the hall again, more than a thousand members of the Right Division appeared and surrounded the three hundred men. However, they did not know the identities of these people as their backgrounds had always been kept a secret.
Seeing that they were surrounded, the three hundred men finally moved and looked around coldly.
Gao Guan's figure appeared at the door and stood there quietly. His eyes were calm as he quietly looked at the group of men. The size and members of this group had always been difficult to fathom. Perhaps they were all in front of him today, but he could not guarantee that Qing Zhu had not placed this group of hidden people in front of him.
Feng Yuan slowly walked down the steps and waved his hand in the air. More than a thousand members of the Right Division immediately came forward to search them.
Such impolite behavior caused the three hundred men to feel slightly conflicted. Many of them even waved their arms and pushed away the people who were searching them rudely. They glared at each other.
Feng Yuan turned back to look at Gao Guan. Gao Guan did not respond and continued to look outside quietly.
"Sir!" One of the three hundred or so men shouted angrily at their leader, as if asking why?
"This is a serious matter. I have told you everything that needs to be said. What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?" The leader, a burly man with white hair at his temples, suddenly turned back and shouted at his brothers. He stood there steadily and allowed the people of the Right Division to search him. When he turned back and shouted, his brothers tightened their lips and stopped resisting. However, many of their faces were full of unwillingness.
However, the leader turned back to look at the man in the black cloak inside the hall and loudly reminded, "Emissary Gao, there is no need to go through so much trouble. We have all handed over our belongings before coming here. We came empty-handed. You will not be able to find anything on us."
Feng Yuan turned back to look at the hall again. Gao Guan, who was standing inside the hall, did not make a sound. His face was calm and he did not make any statement in front of everyone.
Not making a statement was also a kind of attitude. Feng Yuan waved his hand again.
Regardless of whether the three hundred men were willing or not, the people of the Right Division of the Supervisory Department continued with their official business. In fact, he was even more outrageous. He directly sealed their cultivation and then slowly searched them. In the end, nothing was found and they were all taken away. They were sent to the prison of the Right Division of the Supervisory Department …
There were two types of missions. One was the kind that everyone wanted to do, and the other was the kind that everyone wanted to avoid. For example, going to the Chaotic Star Ocean to capture someone. The key was that this kind of mission wasn't something that could be completed just by trying your best. The possibility of not completing the mission and possibly losing their lives was too high, so no one was willing to accept this mission. Every time something like this happened, he could only directly apportion the blame.
If apportionment could not solve the problem, then there were only two methods left: assignment and drawing lots. The one who was chosen could only blame it on his bad luck.
The Left Supervisory Guard divided the five million quotas among the various guards, and each guard contributed five hundred thousand men and horses. Then, each army received another fifty thousand men and horses, and each department received another five thousand men and horses.
Zhu Zixing, the temporary headquarters of the Black Dragon Sector, and the commanders of the Ten Tiger Banners once again gathered in the conference hall.
After a customary opening, Nie Wuxiao, who was sitting on the main seat, cleared her throat. Sweeping her gaze across the crowd, she solemnly informed, "Some time ago, a serious criminal escaped into the Chaotic Star Ocean. The Left and Right Supervisory Guards have decided to each send five million men into the Chaotic Star Ocean to capture him. The quota of five million will be allocated to each department, and the Black Dragon Sector received five thousand. Within three days, we will reorganize our forces and set off to meet up with the main army to capture him. I wonder if each of the Tiger Banners has the confidence to complete this mission? "
He had already made it very clear that this was an apportionment mission, so no one should think of rejecting it.
Who would have thought that Miao Yi, who was at the next station, would immediately step forward and cup his fists, "The Black Tiger Banner is willing to send five thousand men to complete this mission."
Nie Wuxiao was stunned. The two Vice Commanders, Xiang Baigong and Bo Yue, looked at each other.
Aside from Zhan Ru, the other eight Tiger Banner commanders were also stunned. The reason why they wanted to remove Zhan Ruyi was because he had already stepped forward to take the mission. "The Blue Tiger Banner is willing to send five thousand men to complete this mission. Please grant us our wish, Commander. "
The scene instantly fell into silence. The commander of the Heavenly Tiger Banner, Tang Yanju, suddenly stepped forward and cupped her fists, "Please grant the two commanders' sincerity, Commander."
Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi were shocked. They thought they'd heard wrong. 'Not only did he not take the mission, but he was even helping them?'
Unexpectedly, the other seven Tiger Banner commanders almost immediately followed suit and said in unison, "Please grant the two commanders' wish, Commander."
'They're all supporting the two of them?' Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi immediately realized that there was something fishy going on. They couldn't help but look to their left and right to see the reactions of the others.
To Miao Yi, this mission was something he had to fight for. He was just worrying about how to rescue Yan Beihong from the Bewildered Astral Seas. Who would have thought that he would have to go on a mission there? He was overjoyed when he heard about it, so he naturally had to fight for it. He had to fight for it no matter the cost. Otherwise, if it was taken by someone else, he would lose this golden opportunity. But what was going on?
Zhan Ruyi's reason for fighting for the mission was that even though she had changed her attitude towards things, the desire to compete with Miao Yi still hadn't disappeared. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was fighting for the mission with Miao Yi. However, she was also confused by the current situation.
What else could Nie Wuxiao say? It was a mission that everyone wanted to avoid, and now someone had volunteered for it. It wouldn't make sense for her to push the responsibility onto the others. Was it fun to make everyone work without putting in any effort? However, Miao Yi was easy to handle. If something happened, then so be it. The key was Zhan Ruyi. Her superiors had instructed her not to let anything happen to her. If something happened to her in the Bewildered Astral Seas, it would be hard to explain to them.
After some thought, she said, "I'll put the mission on the heads of the two of you for now. I will ask for instructions from my superiors and see how the other places handle things before making a final decision."
Miao Yi didn't care what was going on. He had to go no matter what. Once again, he volunteered, "I am willing to lead my men on this mission."
Zhan Ruyi originally wanted to think it over and figure out the situation first. However, seeing Miao Yi's attitude, she wasn't willing to give in. She volunteered again, "This is my first time here in the Black Dragon Division. I hope that Commander will grant me this wish!"
"Let's put it this way for now!" Nie Wuxiao said and left.
The group below dispersed. Miao Yi once again caught up to the Earth Tiger Banner's Grand Commander, He Zhi, and asked, "Brother He, you mentioned the old tradition of the Left and Right Wardens last time. What's going on today?"
He Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then revealed a secretive smile. Without saying a word, he cupped his fists and took his leave.
Miao Yi was completely confused. When he returned to the camp, he naturally had to find someone to ask for advice. Mu Yulian and Qu Yahong were the only ones he could find.
"Grand Commander!" The two Vice Grand Commanders panicked when they heard this. Mu Yulian was the first to speak, "Naturally, no one would be willing to take on such an arduous and thankless mission. The various Tiger Banners are eager for someone to take the lead. How can the Grand Commander take on such a mission?"
Inside the tent, Yang Qing and the others were also confused. Fei Hong slowly served a cup of tea and gently placed it on Miao Yi's table. She didn't leave.
Miao Yi asked curiously, "Why is it arduous and thankless?"
Mu Yulian said, "Milord, what kind of place is the Misty Star Seas? Trying to find someone there is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's almost impossible to complete the mission even if you have the heart to. Besides, who knows how many people are lost there, never to return. Naturally, no one would take on such a mission if you know it's impossible to complete it."
Qu Yahong also sighed softly, "Grand Commander, you must know that from now on, you must think twice before giving out missions. It's definitely because no one is willing to take on such a mission. Sigh! However, Milord hasn't decided yet. It's not too late to refuse now. "
Yang Qing and the others suddenly understood. Miao Yi furrowed his brows and finally understood. But could he refuse? He couldn't!
Even if he couldn't refuse, he still had to come up with a plausible reason. After all, it wasn't just his own matter. He had to drag a large group of people with him to take the risk. Miao Yi stood up and said solemnly, "I've been in the Black Tiger Banner for many years and have yet to make any contributions. If I go back on my word now, how can I establish myself in the Black Dragon Division?" These words were also meant for Fei Hong to hear.
It was rare for Mu Yulian and Qu Yahong to agree with each other, but no matter how hard they tried to persuade them, it was useless.
After Nie Wuxiao reported the situation, the Governor of the Big Dipper Army, Yu Zhongzhen, also felt a headache coming on and reported it again. He originally thought that the higher-ups wouldn't agree. Who knew that when the news reached the Commander of the Left Commandant Defeating Armies, he paced back and forth in the Commander's Hall. His mind was filled with the day he met Lord Qing, when Lord Qing said that Zhan Ruyi had accidentally let it slip. He wasn't sure if he had heard wrongly.
After pondering for a long time, he shook his head and made up his mind. He immediately gave the order. Approved!
Soon, Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi received Nie Wuxiao's official decree. The Black Tiger Banner and the Blue Tiger Banner were ordered to each send two thousand five hundred men to participate in this mission.
The deadline given by the higher-ups was very tight. After receiving the decree, the two Grand Commanders quickly mobilized their troops.
When the two Tiger Banners were selected, the people carrying out this mission were rather disgruntled. Miao Yi gathered his troops and announced, "I, the Grand Commander, will share your joys and sorrows. I will go in and out of this mission together with my brothers. If we are to enter the Chaotic Astral Seas, I will be the first to do so!"
Since he had already said so, what else could they say? Besides, military orders were absolute.
On the other hand, when Zhan Ruyi found out that Miao Yi was going to personally lead the troops into the Chaotic Astral Seas, she was shocked. After she came back and asked her subordinates about the whole story, she felt a little regretful. Initially, she thought that Niu Youde would definitely regret it as well. Who knew that Niu Youde would be so ruthless? He was basically risking his life!
The woman gritted her teeth. She wasn't willing to be at a disadvantage in this matter, so she wanted to go personally.
After the two of them had given their subordinates some instructions, they gathered their troops and set off together.
By the time the two of them arrived outside the Chaotic Astral Seas with their five thousand troops, the army of ten million had finally been assembled.
There were two commanders in charge of this capture operation. They were from the Left and Right Commandants' Middle Army, and the two were the Vice Governor of the Middle Army. One was called Bai Lifeng, and the other was Huan Wubian. The two of them were in charge of this operation, so it was easier to communicate with the troops of the two Generals. From another perspective, it was clear how much importance the higher-ups placed on this operation.
Miao Yi and Zhan Ruyi still didn't have any access to the two Vice Governors, so they could only follow the orders given by the higher-ups.
