When Mo Ruohua arrived at the barracks, she didn't move into the residence Marquis Le had prepared for her. Instead, she moved a simple barracks from the airship and set it up.
This kind of barracks was often used when fighting Taibo in the wilderness. At that time, she would dig a deep hole in the ground and live inside. On the battlefield, this thing had the function of concealing herself. Living here gave her an inexplicable sense of security.
After Mo Ruohua entered the room, she took off her military school cloak and handed it to a young female servant. Then, she sat down on a thick cushion and began wiping her spear. This was her weapon of choice on the battlefield.
A voice called out from outside, "Captain?"
The young female servant opened the tent and walked in from the side. Cupping her fists she said, "Officer, the sergeants have all settled down for the night."
Mo Ruohua sat there and said, "You can go and rest too."
The young female servant said, "Captain, you can't have no one here to take care of you."
Mo Ruohua glanced at her and waved her hand. "Go, there's a servant here."
The young female servant could only cup her fists and say, "Yes, Captain, if there's anything you need, just tell me." She then said to the young female servant, "Servant, take good care of Captain."
The young female servant bowed to her.
After Mo Ruohua finished wiping her spear, she put it aside and began writing a post. This was a recruitment post. She wanted to recruit a few of her good friends from Rising Sun Academy to her side.
First of all, after the Battle of Frost Island, there wouldn't be any battles for a long time. Only by joining at this time would they have a chance of gaining military merits. Otherwise, once they left the academy, they could only slowly rise through the ranks. She was willing to help these good friends.
Secondly, although her current assistant had been handpicked from the army, all of her personal guards had been assigned to her by the army.
Most of them weren't her own people. She even knew that many of them were in charge of monitoring her daily activities. It was hard to say how many of them would listen to her orders at critical moments.
As such, she needed to have power that she could control.
As a lieutenant, according to the regulations of the military, she could have her own troop of twenty people. However, she had to rely on her own salary to support them. Therefore, she planned to go to the East Court to recruit her old friends.
After she finished pasting the letter, she stood up and said, "I'm going out for a while. Send the letter to Little Ruan and have her deliver it on my behalf."
The servant girl asked, "Where do you want to go, Miss?
Mo Ruohua said, "Wait here. I won't see anyone who comes."
After she finished speaking, she walked out. Her glabella flashed, and in an instant, a dark blue armor quickly covered her entire body. Then, with a leap, she disappeared along with a cloud of dust on the ground.
Within Fang Tai's encampment, a disciple walked into the hall and cupped his hands towards Zhang Yu who was reading a book. "Xuan Zheng, there is a Lieutenant Mo from the military headquarters who wishes to see you."
Zhang Yu put down the book and said, "Let her in."
Moments later, a metallic giant in dark blue armor walked in. After entering the room, the armor on his body melted into his glabella.
Mo Ruohua appeared from within and cupped her fists towards Zhang Yu. "Mister."
Zhang Yu nodded. "As expected, it's you. Let's sit down and talk. "
Mo Ruohua cupped her fists again. "Thank you, Mister."
After she sat down, Zhang Yu asked, "You're already a lieutenant?"
Mo Ruohua said, "Actually, it's all because of this Xuan Armor. Last year, I was recruited by the military and spent several months undergoing training in the camp. It was only later that I found out that the military was selecting candidates to wear this armor. This armor is a little mysterious. Many of my comrades who underwent training with me never woke up."
Her tone was quite natural as she spoke. It wasn't that she completely disregarded life and death, but that she had experienced enough to face such things with equanimity.
"Before the New Year, the military headquarters went to serve the army again. They were supposed to arrive a month later, but they received a letter from Marquis Le saying that evil cultivators were obstructing their path. That was why they were sent over together with Lieutenant Ming."
She looked towards Zhang Yu and said, "Marquis Le said in his letter that the evil cultivator Xuan Zhengyan possessed astonishing abilities and that the Xuanfu couldn't handle him. He even advised him not to make a move. However, he thought that the military couldn't be delayed and decided to build a military base in anticipation of the army's arrival.
On New Year's Eve, they were suddenly attacked by the enemy. The soldiers fought bravely to the last man and didn't retreat. During this time, they repeatedly sent signals to the Xuanfu sentry posts thousands of miles away, but no one came to their aid. That was how they were defeated one by one. "
As soon as Zhang Yu heard this, he understood that Le Junhou was implying that he could not be blamed for this matter, and that it was all the Profound Palace's fault. The Profound Palace feared the enemy like a tiger, and retreated to the back. However, he did not avoid danger, and bravely moved forward. On New Year's Eve, he was still fighting for his life against the enemy, but after the Profound Palace received the news of reinforcements, they remained as still as a mountain.
It was quite difficult for this person. It was clearly a letter of defeat with his soldiers dead and injured, but he suddenly changed his tone and became passionate.
However, he knew that the military headquarters would most likely accept this letter. This wasn't for Marquis Le alone, but for the hundreds of soldiers and their relatives who died there.
As for the damage to Xuanfu's reputation, it was probably a small matter in the eyes of some people in the military headquarters.
He said, "You came here specifically to deal with this person?"
Mo Ruohua said, "Yes, Marquis Ming has already decided to attack alone and defeat this enemy."
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "It's not that easy."
At the same time, an airship was speeding toward a destroyed military base.
Marquis Ming leaned against the soft couch in the main cabin of the airship with his hands behind his head. Even though the wilderness outside looked vast, he felt that there wasn't much to see here. It was monotonous and dull, no different from the Northern Wastelands. He had long since grown tired of looking at it.
At this time, the soldier Marquis Le sent to lead the way pointed forward. "Marquis Ming, it's just ahead. We'll be there soon."
Marquis Ming finally regained some energy. He sat up and gazed into the distance.
After a while, the flying boat approached, and then the scene of this military fort came into view.
This was a fortress riddled with holes. The corpses of the soldiers had been collected, but the remains of the destroyed creations were still scattered on the Wilderness. He could imagine the situation at that time and could not help but say, "How tragic."
The soldier leading the way said angrily, "These demons are truly unruly. They even attacked during the New Year!"
Marquis Ming stretched his body and said lazily, "Evil cultivators can't be scared away by a few firecrackers."
The soldier was startled and didn't reply.
The airship circled the military base once. Marquis Ming looked left and right and suddenly looked up in a certain direction. He reached out and patted the soldier's shoulder. "You go back first."
The soldier was startled. "What about you, Marquis Ming?"
Marquis Ming's mouth twitched. "Don't blame me for not reminding you. I'm afraid you won't have another chance if you don't leave now." As soon as he finished speaking, his glabella flashed and the outer armor on his body quickly covered his body. He then jumped down from the opened cabin door and landed on the ground.
The soldier seemed to have thought of something at this moment. His face couldn't help but turn pale. He urged the soldier driving the airship in a panic. "Quick, turn around quickly!"
Marquis Ming descended from a height of a thousand feet and finally landed on the ground with a boom. He then straightened his body and looked into the distance. "I know you're there. Come out and fight with me. You attacked our people, so we have to give you an explanation, don't you think so?"
Not long after he finished speaking, a murderous aura rolled in from the surroundings. A young man with red eyes and white skin appeared on top of the ruins of the military base. He looked down and said, "Xuanfu sent you?"
Marquis Ming defended himself. "Hey, I'm not Xuanfu's man! I'm the military's armored Marquis Ming! Xuanfu can't order me around. "
Patriarch Yuan Tong didn't pay much attention to his words.
In his impression, the Xuanfu under Xuanting ruled over everything in the mortal world. He had never heard of any Marquis or Marquis. They were just a group of mortals.
Although the person in front of him seemed to have obtained some power through that kind of strange creation, a mortal was still a mortal.
Marquis Ming looked at Patriarch Yuan Tong and said with dissatisfaction, "What's with that look?"
He clenched his fists, and the spiritual light of scarlet flames suddenly rose from his body. Then, without seeing how he moved, he disappeared from where he was and appeared above Patriarch Yuan Tong's head in an instant, smashing down with a fist.
Patriarch Yuan Tong stood motionless, and his body shattered under his fist like a bubble. The powerful impact caused the ruins of the military fortress to collapse immediately, and dust billowed in all directions. Then, a huge pit appeared below, and the original building could no longer be seen.
It wasn't that Marquis Ming couldn't control his power well. After experiencing the war in the north, he now had a better control of his power. He could release it whenever he wanted, and withdraw it whenever he wanted.
This blow was purely to vent the unhappiness from just now.
At this moment, it wasn't difficult for him to sense that his opponent's aura was still further away. With a shift of his consciousness, he appeared in that direction in an instant under the guidance of his spiritual power.
However, when he arrived there, Patriarch Yuan Tong's aura drifted away and seemed to appear in another place.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He raised his head and saw an endless evil aura surging from the surrounding wasteland. For a moment, the sky was completely covered, as if it had fallen into a dark night.
He then took a slight breath, and in an instant, his body swelled up. The next moment, he brazenly punched toward the sky!
Boom!
Like a dark weapon exploding, a huge force rushed from the ground to the sky. Under this punch, endless waves of air were set off, and all the evil aura was swept away.
He stood in the middle of the hurricane, looking up at the clear sky that appeared once again.
Patriarch Yuan Tong's figure that was hidden behind was also revealed. He looked down, and the pattern of the peony on his robe seemed to be slowly blooming, and there seemed to be a ray of light flickering inside.
Marquis Ming sensed a trace of warning in his heart. As soon as he thought of it, his body had already dodged to the side, and he half-knelt there.
And at the place where he was originally, there was a black pit that was about a foot in size on the ground. Black smoke slowly drifted out from it.
At this moment, he was surprised to find that his dark armor that had an extremely strong defensive ability had actually been damaged. Half of the surface of the dark armor had turned into a piece of charcoal. This was because he had dodged in time. Otherwise, he didn't know what would have happened.
"That's a little powerful."
He stood up, and the charcoal fell from the surface of the dark armor. But then, a brand new dark armor that had been repaired was revealed.
"Looks like I have to take something out."
Marquis Ming looked at the sky, and grinned. "You know, I was going to save this move to deal with that person." He clenched his fist again, and in an instant, the aura on his body suddenly surged.
