119: The army returned to camp

“Then what preparations are you making?” Lin Yue wasn’t embarrassed by She Jian’s words, just a little curious.

“Some of the people under my command have also been transferred, so I want to transfer Pan Feng from your command.

He’s a Second-Rate Military General, isn’t he? He’s not lacking in strategy, and serving as a Military Marquis under you is a bit of a waste of his talent,” She Jian said with a smile.

“General, what position do you plan to give him?

Let’s be clear, Pan Feng is not a Military Marquis; by tomorrow, he will be a Captain of the White Horse Righteous Cavalry.

If you don’t give him the rank of Colonel, I imagine you wouldn’t even have the nerve to ask,” Lin Yue said with a twinkle in his eye.

“Damn it, if it were anyone else, I would have transferred them away long ago, instead of wasting my breath here!

I’m speaking to you nicely, and you’re trying to take advantage of me?” She Jian cursed, and with that, he stood up, intending to rush over and beat him up, only stopping when Lin Yue clasped his hands in supplication.

Lin Yue clasped his hands and laughed, “General, I’m doing this for Pan Feng’s sake! I know Pan Feng is wasting his talent with me, but I can only promote Pan Feng if I get promoted. How about you promote me to Colonel, and then Pan Feng can be a Colonel?”

“Get lost!

With your Initial-stage Martial General realm, even a Colonel is too much for you; you want a promotion? Dream on!

I’m not trying to criticize you, but with your mediocre skills, you still want to be a Colonel?

Tell me, what’s the difference between putting a dog in the Colonel’s position and putting you there?”

Their relationship was close, and during their casual conversation, they naturally spoke without inhibition, so She Jian’s words were as cutting as could be.

Lin Yue opened his mouth but couldn’t find a retort, feeling incredibly depressed at that moment.

Just wait! Once I finish cultivating The Art of War, I will surely make you all look at me with new eyes!

Lin Yue secretly made up his mind!

“It’s settled then. I will transfer Pan Feng tomorrow. The merit for capturing Hurkhan alive was already too little for a Military Marquis; giving him a Colonel now, no one will say anything,” She Jian felt very pleased seeing Lin Yue’s deflated expression.

“General, Xing Daorong, Li Mu, and Liu Sandao under my command are all talented individuals. Would you like to consider them?” Lin Yue suddenly asked.

After all, they were all his own people; the higher their positions, the greater the help to him!

“Xing Daorong can be excluded. I feel like he’s a bit… not so bright here,” She Jian said, pointing to his head, then continued, “Li Mu can also be excluded. It’s better to keep him under you; if he’s under me, I’ll be constantly worried.

As for Liu Sandao, he’s your personal guard. If I take him, what about your safety?” She Jian said slowly, then suddenly leaned forward, a wide smile on his face, “I saw that young white-robed general by your side the other day, he’s quite good. How about lending him to me?”

“No!” Lin Yue immediately refused.

“Why are you so stingy? Are we still brothers?” She Jian’s face immediately fell.

“It’s just no!” Lin Yue still didn’t compromise.

With Zhao Yun by his side, he felt an unprecedented sense of security.

He believed that even amidst a myriad of enemy troops, as long as he didn’t run blindly, Zhao Yun could lead him to cut through them seven times!

The Three Heroes of the Three Kingdoms had never given him this feeling!

“Look at how petty you are; you’ll never amount to anything great!” She Jian cursed, clearly still bothered by not getting Zhao Yun.

“General, I’m quite happy serving under you. If I can’t amount to anything great, then so be it,” Lin Yue said with an indifferent expression.

“At least you still have some conscience. Get out!” She Jian said with a laugh and a curse, then added as Lin Yue was about to step out of the Encampment, “The main thing is to improve your martial arts as soon as possible, otherwise, a promotion would only harm you.”

“Understood, General!”

Lin Yue paused, then walked towards his barracks, feeling very pleased.

Although he hadn’t recommended the other few, Pan Feng was now a Colonel. He was fiercely loyal to himself, so there was no need to worry about Pan Feng growing distant. The only slight imperfection was that She Jian always eyed Zhao Yun covetously, which made him a little worried!

If he were to send Zhao Yun away and then encounter a fierce general like Atai again, wouldn't he just keep getting beaten?

Lin Yue shook his head, no longer thinking about these matters. Zhao Yun was also fiercely loyal to him now; all his worries were completely unfounded!

When he came to his senses, he realized it was already midnight. After a sigh, he stepped into his barracks and began cultivating The Art of War.

It wasn’t until late morning that Lin Yue emerged from the illusion. He put on his armor and went to the training ground to observe the training of the White Horse Righteous Cavalry.

【White Horse Righteous Cavalry: Training Progress: 71!】

Lin Yue nodded; the progress was very fast. Although they were all elites, it was enough to prove Zhao Yun’s effective training!

However, it had been over a month since he left the Army, and he didn’t know how the training progress of the ten thousand White Horse Righteous Cavalry was coming along.

“My Lord!” Seeing Lin Yue approach, Zhao Yun had Du Tong continue the instruction while he walked towards Lin Yue.

“Zi Long, come with me,” Lin Yue said.

“Yes!” Zhao Yun responded.

Then the two rode their horses to Fushi County City, arriving in the afternoon.

“My Lord, has the Army returned to Shang Commandery?” Zhao Yun asked.

“Yes, judging by the time, it should be about now!” Lin Yue said with a smile.

As he spoke, a pure white horse galloped from a distance!

“Dahuang!”

Lin Yue shouted excitedly. Dahuang seemed to understand and ran straight towards him. Eventually, man and horse reunited, with Dahuang constantly nudging Lin Yue’s head.

“Alright, let’s go,” Lin Yue said with a smile, stroking the horse’s head, then led Dahuang to the side of the road.

Sure enough, a cavalry unit appeared in the distance, entirely composed of white horses—it was the White Horse Righteous Cavalry!

“What a truly spiritual and excellent horse!” Zhao Yun couldn’t help but exclaim.

Dahuang seemed to truly understand, deliberately straightening its body and raising its head high, causing the two to laugh heartily.

“My Lord!” As the White Horse Righteous Cavalry gradually approached, Pan Feng and the other three were touched to see Lin Yue waiting for them there!

“Mm, hurry back to the Encampment. When it’s over, I’ll take you home,” Lin Yue nodded with a smile. Seeing them again, he felt very happy.

“Yes!” The few clasped their hands and smiled, then without delay, headed straight for the Encampment.

Lin Yue and Zhao Yun also followed to wait for them outside Fushi County City.

Six thousand new recruits were waiting outside the Military Camp, and soon after, the Golden Fire Cavalry appeared before the two, entering the Encampment one after another.

After the handover, Pan Feng led ten thousand White Horse Righteous Cavalry to Lin Yue’s position. All of them dismounted and clasped their hands, saying, “My Lord!”

“Good, I’ve finally waited for your return,” Lin Yue said with a smile.

The few exchanged knowing smiles. Li Mu glanced at the white-robed general beside Lin Yue, stepped forward, and said with surprise, “Brother Zi Long, we meet again!”

“Indeed, Brother Li!” Zhao Yun clasped his hands in return.

“Li Mu, who is this?” Xing Daorong asked. How did My Lord know this person, and Li Mu knew this person, but I didn’t?

“This is Zhao Yun, Zhao Zi Long. From now on, you will be colleagues,” Lin Yue quickly introduced.

“Yes!” The few responded, with Li Mu being the happiest among them, as he was the one who most clearly understood Zhao Yun’s strength!

“Now, mount your horses and follow me back to the Encampment!” Lin Yue said with a smile, mounting Dahuang, leading his white horse, and galloping ahead towards Shenmu Military Camp!
