Ren Baqian sat on a chair and opened the box next to him. Inside were black tokens that were decorated with fish dragon patterns. On the front were three blood-red words: "Rearguard Commandery" and two red words: "Baihu" were written on the back.
The tokens were only the size of a palm, weighed about two ounces, and were completely made of alloy.
"Each of your tokens is also proof of your identity. When you meet people from the court and the Rearguard Commandery, show them first to prove your identity, "Ren Baqian said as he distributed the tokens.
When everyone received the tokens, they found that they were extremely exquisite and had fine lines. There were no traces of carving at all, and they couldn't be imitated.
Ren Baqian watched from above as everyone put away the tokens and said, "There are two tasks for everyone to complete."
"Please speak, Sir," everyone immediately said.
Now that everyone had received their tokens and their identities had been confirmed, they could only listen to what Ren Baqian said.
Ren Baqian never said that the Rearguard Commandery was a city gate that could be entered and exited at will.
From his previous methods, everyone could guess what would happen to him if he wanted to withdraw from the battle.
Ren Baqian got up and opened the box next to him. He took out a few binoculars and handed them to everyone. "Try it."
Everyone took the strange thing from Ren Baqian and asked after a while, "Sir, how do we use this thing?"
Ren Baqian picked one up, put it in front of his eyes, and took a look outside. Everyone immediately understood.
One of them put the binoculars in front of his eyes and looked outside the courtyard. He suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and his expression changed.
It wasn't just one person, but several people in succession.
Through this thing in their hands, the distant courtyard wall seemed to be right in front of them. The little damage on it, as well as the weeds sticking out of the wall, could be seen clearly.
"Senior Qi, what's wrong?" someone asked in a low voice.
These were all Earth Wheel experts who wouldn't easily be surprised by anything. At this time, they were surprised with such a thing, which puzzled others.
"Look!" Senior Qi handed the binoculars to him.
The others used the binoculars to look at things in the distance. Some even used the binoculars to look at the people opposite and were shocked.
On the opposite side of the binoculars were two dark holes full of weeds. After taking a few steps back, they realized that they were actually nostrils!
Everyone passed the binoculars to each other and took a look. When they looked at this thing again, their eyes were filled with amazement.
Although this thing couldn't increase one's strength, it was very useful.
"This is a telescope. As long as it's within sight, everything can be magnified ten times, which is equivalent to getting closer by ten times. Even objects the size of insects in the distance could be seen clearly with this thing.
In addition, there's another thing called night vision. It can see the human body in the distance at night. No matter how well it's hidden, it can be found immediately. "
"I need a few people to investigate the movements at the Wang Estuary. They don't need to get close. They just need to monitor the other party's arrangements. With these two items, I can ensure my own safety to the greatest extent. "
"Sir Ren, I'm willing to go," someone immediately said. Everyone knew in their hearts that working for the Imperial Court was not something they could do as they pleased. Even in the sect, it was impossible.
For the first mission, Ren Baqian allowed everyone to register themselves. Those who took the initiative would definitely have a higher position in his heart.
The binoculars and the so-called night vision goggles had increased their safety to the maximum. Everyone present was an Earth Wheel expert. As long as they weren't surrounded, it wouldn't be difficult for them to escape.
If they didn't fight for such an opportunity, there was no point in joining the Rearguard Commandery.
"Sir, I'm willing."
Everyone spoke up one after another. Some addressed themselves as "I", some as "subordinate", and some as "Chen" and "Cheng". For a moment, it was a little chaotic.
A total of more than 20 people volunteered.
"Let's do it this way. You guys go to the Wang Estuary and Ghost Ridge to investigate the situation. It's best to figure out the composition and arrangements of the people there. "Ren Baqian smiled.
After thinking that these people used to be practitioners and didn't know much about military affairs, he said, "The number of people on the other side depends on their cooking. After all, they can't eat cold food outside every day and have to cook … "Ren Baqian roughly explained some of the things he had seen before, which surprised everyone. They didn't expect him to know these things.
Everyone quivered. They would never forget those few days in this lifetime!
"As for the rest of you, I have another task for you. How is the recruitment of tiqi going? "
"I've found the manpower."
"Well, send people to the cities in the north, a total of 37 cities. There must be at least 10 people in each city to monitor the situation in each city. Report to me immediately if there are any bad movements. If anyone colludes and plots against us, kill them without mercy! "
"At the same time, recruit strong men in the cities and hide in each city to investigate all kinds of news. Not only now, but even in the future, you have to be clear about the slightest movement in each city. After that, you will be assigned a jurisdiction. If something goes wrong in someone's jurisdiction, I will take that person's head! "Ren Baqian said sinisterly.
"Yes!" Everyone was shocked.
After speaking, Ren Baqian leisurely sat back in his seat. After thinking for a while, he seemed to have nothing else to say and was ready to dismiss everyone.
At this moment, a red shadow landed in front of the door.
"Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian stood up and cupped his hands. The red muslin on the empress seemed to be torn in two places. Just as Ren Baqian was about to ask what happened, the empress threw two heads to the ground with a cold face.
"Your Majesty, this is …?" Ren Baqian was stunned and asked softly. The empress ignored him and walked away from the door.
"Qing Xuanjun! Fox Rouzhi! "Everyone was shocked when they saw the two heads on the ground.
"Huh?" Ren Baqian thought for a while. He had heard of these two names before. They were two of the 18 Earth Wheel experts in Tianjing Basin. In particular, Fox Rouzhi. Most people would think that this name belonged to a woman, but it was actually a man. When he was young, he was called Young Fox because he liked to put on makeup. Even when he was older, he was still the same. Many people secretly called him Fox Rouzhi.
If he remembered correctly, Zuo Cheng was injured by the two of them a few days ago.
"Sure enough, it's the two of them." Everyone whispered.
"They seem to be at the Wang Estuary, right?"
"Qi Zixiao went to the Wang Estuary?"
Everyone was shocked. The empress actually went to the Wang Estuary to kill these two Spirit Wheel experts? Everyone knew that the empress was very strong, and the battle at Mount Wu had proven this point.
However, the empress went to the Wang Estuary to kill two people and came back without any injuries. This still surprised everyone.
With a top expert like the empress and the winged cavalry around, the revolutionary army in the south wouldn't be able to resist them. Surrendering was indeed the right choice. Otherwise, they would end up like these two people.
Ren Baqian snorted. The person who spoke earlier immediately realized that he had made a slip of the tongue. He quickly lowered his head and said, "It was a slip of the tongue. Please forgive me, Sir."
Ren Baqian squinted at him, memorized his appearance, and said, "Now that the two Spirit Wheel experts at the Wang Estuary are dead, you can leave with peace of mind."
"Yes!" Many baihu who were heading to the Wang Estuary were in high spirits.
