After the disputes with Liu Dai, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao some time ago, Yang Rui's territory had become more stable.
Except for Chen Liu County, the rest of Yan Province had been controlled by Yang Rui, Qiao Mao, and Ding Yuan. Ji Province and Bohai County had also been included in Yang Rui's territory. Liu Dai of East County had been directly destroyed by Yang Rui, and East County had also been completely included in Yang Rui's territory.
At the same time, Yang Rui had just made a name for himself, so Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and the other feudal lords would not dare to act rashly for a while. Therefore, Yang Rui's territory, including that of Qiao Mao and Ding Yuan, should be relatively stable for the time being.
Therefore, Yang Rui made the decision so quickly to enter the mission space to search for the Three-legged Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, the divine artifact of the three civilizations. In terms of troops and personnel, Yang Rui had a lot of choices, and the pressure of defending the rear was not great.
In terms of generals, among Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You, except for Zhang Ning who stayed in Linzi City, Yang Rui still took the other three with him. In addition, Yang Rui also took two newly acquired historical generals — Dian Wei and Yu Jin.
At this time, Dian Wei and Yu Jin had been recommended by Yang Rui to be the first lieutenant of the General of Jiaodong Country and Donglai County respectively. Moreover, all the commanderies under Yang Rui's jurisdiction were in urgent need of generals. However, considering that the two were new and there might be some uncertainties, Yang Rui thought it would be safer to take them with him.
Judging from Dian Wei's current performance, he should have settled down. Yu Jin seemed to have spent a lot of time with Bao Xin and seemed to have a good relationship with him. Yang Rui took the two with him, directly cutting off the possibility of accidents.
And both Dian Wei and Yu Jin. They were both rare generals. They would also be of great help to the completion of the mission.
It was a pity. According to Dian Wei and Yu Jin, neither of them had activated the attributes of their exclusive special units. Otherwise, they would've been even more useful.
...
Similar to the previous Outlander Tournament, Yang Rui also brought along Gao Shun's 50000 Sixth Grade Formation Breaker soldiers, as well as Yang Rui's own unique military force – 50000 Fifth Grade Scaled Water Soldiers.
After all this time of accumulation of experience, Gao Shun's exclusive soldier, the Formation Breaker, had finally advanced to Sixth Grade, while Yang Rui's exclusive soldier, the Scaled Marine, had also advanced to Fifth Grade!
Among them, the Scaled Water Soldier mainly gained experience from the Penglai Secret Realm. Before this, they had never participated in a proper naval battle. The Formation Breaker soldiers, on the other hand, had truly matured through experience.
In any case, the advancement of these two exclusive soldier types had made them even more powerful. That was especially true for the Formation Breaker soldiers. When Gao Shun used Formation Breaker, the Scaled Water Soldier already had the attribute of 'sharing life and death'. Now that their combat prowess had improved, their combat prowess was bound to become even more terrifying.
If they were on the surface of the water, the Scaled Water Soldiers were also quite powerful. This was also the reason why Yang Rui brought them along.
Of course, Yang Rui had also brought along the fortress ships, warships, Bi 'an, and various other ships. If they encountered a water environment where they could use these ships, they would cooperate with the Scaled Water Soldiers. Even though most of the weapons on these ships were still empty, their combat prowess was not to be underestimated.
If the School of Mohism's legacy could be passed down as soon as possible, and the various powerful weapons contained within the legacy could be created, then the fortress ships, warships, Bi 'an, and other large ships' combat prowess would be greatly improved.
Compared to the time when he participated in the Otherworld Space Hegemony Tournament, the number of large warships in Yang Rui's hands had increased by quite a bit. The total number had reached more than 20 ships (of which 5 were fortress ships, 7 were warships, and 10 were Bi 'an). The scale had increased by at least 3 times. For this trip to the mission space, Yang Rui had brought almost all of them with him.
If it wasn't for the fact that Taishi Ci was still in charge of training the navy, Yang Rui would have brought him along as well. However, the scale of the training of the Scaled Water Soldiers had reached more than 200,000. At the same time, they had all reached Second Grade and Third Grade. Other than Taishi Ci, the other generals might not be able to train these Scaled Water Soldiers well.
Apart from the Formation Breaker soldiers and the scaled aquatic soldiers, Yang Rui had also brought 20000 archers with him. These archers had all recently advanced to Sixth Grade, as well as 10000 lightly-armored swordsmen who had advanced to Fifth Grade, around 5000 Fifth Grade pike riders, and three hundred high-grade generals.
Such a major military force was a significant increase compared to the military force Yang Rui had brought with him during the Otherworld Space Hegemony Tournament. At the same time, Yang Rui still kept five hundred thousand Fourth Grade Yellow Turban Warriors in the Castle in the Sky for emergencies.
This number had almost doubled compared to Yang Rui's previous trip to the Otherworld. It was clear to see how important this Reputation mission was to Yang Rui!
As for the tools, Yang Rui had to bring along the Large Nation Crushers, Scaling Ladders, and Siege Chariots. Among them, forty Large Nation Crushers and one thousand Scaling Ladders had always been kept in the Castle in the Sky. The number of siege chariots had been increased by another two hundred, bringing the total number of siege chariots in the Castle in the Sky to four hundred.
Through the continuous use of siege chariots in the past, Yang Rui was getting more and more used to engineering tools like siege chariots. It wasn't just during sieges; the siege chariots had also demonstrated their might in other situations. That was why Yang Rui ordered another two hundred siege chariots to be manufactured, despite the fact that the number of craftsmen he had was only a foot soldier.

Yang Rui left Linzi City and entered the mission space in a hurry. Moreover, it was late at night. As such, Yang Rui didn't inform his wife of his departure. Or rather, he purposely avoided them. By the time they were informed that the governor had temporarily left due to some matters, it was already the morning of the next day.
"Mm? The governor has left Linzi City for some important matters? "
In the courtyard of Madam Yanlin Tianming's courtyard, Gan Qian asked suspiciously after hearing the news of Yang Rui's departure.
Due to some special reasons, in addition to the misunderstanding when they met, in Gan Qian's perception, the Governor of Qing Province whom she married, even if he was a little more powerful and capable of fighting, seemed to be a little lecherous.
This could be seen from the fact that this Prefecture Overseer had married so many wives and selected so many maids to accompany him in bed!
However, her famous husband actually chose to leave on the second night of their wedding. During this period, he didn't even enter the courtyard of Madam Yanlin Tianming's courtyard once! This made Gan Qian somewhat puzzled!
Perhaps it was because she had previously weighed the pros and cons and had already decided to flatter this husband of hers. Gan Qian didn't think that this husband of hers would actually not give her a chance for the time being …
...
"Oh? Husband has left? "
In the courtyard of Madam Yanlin Tianming's courtyard, Ding Yao's beautiful eyes flickered as she spoke after hearing the news of Yang Rui's departure.
In terms of first impressions, Ding Yao was actually similar to Gan Qian.
