207: Tianbo Yang Mansion
Tokyo City, Tianbo Gate!
Beside the Jinshui River, a magnificent and enormous government office stood.
The residence was divided into three parts: the west courtyard was a vast garden, the east courtyard was a training ground, and the central part was the main government office. Starting from the main gate, it featured the solemn layout of an ancient residence, even equipped with a bell and drum tower, which surprised Lin Yue.
The bell was a gathering bell for generals, and the drum was a battle drum!
The east courtyard even had a general-reviewing platform, and a commander's flag fluttered in the wind above the government office!
One look and it was clear the master of the house was a military general of outstanding merit!
As the camera zoomed in, Lin Yue saw two large characters carved on the plaque above the main gate, representing the identity of the master.
The Yang Family!
In front of the Yang Family gate stood a dismounting stone. For officials passing by the Yang Family gate, civil officials had to alight from their palanquins, and military officials had to dismount their horses, to show respect to the master of the house!
“The Yang Clan Generals!” Combining all these signs, Lin Yue came to a conclusion!
Sure enough, the camera zoomed in again, directly into the interior of the government office. Two people were seated at the head, and eight people stood below. Lin Yue didn't know what joyous occasion was happening inside the residence, but everyone was talking happily, and the atmosphere was excellent.
If Lin Yue had only been guessing before, he could now confirm that the two people at the head were General Yang Ye, the Golden Blade Yang Wudi, and She Taijun, She Saihua!
And the eight people below should be The Seven Young Masters and Eight Tigers of the Yang Family, General Yang Ye's adopted son, Yang Yanshun!
This must be The Yang Clan Generals!
It was just that among the group this time, he didn't know which one was going to be summoned.
Lin Yue hoped that the Golden Blade General Yang Ye would walk out of the door, as General Yang Ye was a military general of outstanding merit in Song history and a capable subordinate of Emperor Taizong of Song. He was certainly a First-rate Military General!
Of course, it could also be Yang Liulang, Yang Yanzhao, because he guarded the border for over twenty years. Emperor Shenzong of Song called him wise and brave in battle, and he repeatedly defeated the Liao Army, so he was at least a Second-Rate Military General!
As for the other few, Song history recorded very little about them, making it unlikely for them to be a First-rate Military General or a Second-Rate Military General, which would not fit the scope of the Golden Military General Recruitment Order. So, this summoning was very likely to be either General Yang Ye or Yang Liulang!
But Lin Yue dared not confirm, because the official history and the historical novel accounts differed. If it followed the historical novel, The Seven Young Masters and Eight Tigers of the Yang Family could all be Second-Rate Military General or even First-rate Military General, so Lin Yue was not entirely sure!
Therefore, Lin Yue stared intently at the people in the picture, wanting to see who it would be!
However, the scene was not like before, where the main and secondary characters could be easily distinguished. In this scene, everyone was in the frame, and the camera had not moved at all, which left Lin Yue temporarily at a loss!
So Lin Yue could only stare intently at the screen, hoping to see some change. But the scene remained a casual conversation among a few people, and Lin Yue actually found himself listening with some fascination.
But the next moment, the screen suddenly vanished, and Lin Yue snapped back to reality!
“So fast?
Why was this scene so fast and short?
I hadn't even figured out any details, and it's already over?” Lin Yue was secretly surprised, then stared intently at the Gate of Stars, eager to know who would walk out of it!
Lin Yue stared unblinkingly, fixed on the purple Gate of Stars, but after waiting for a long time, no one walked out.
Instead, the Gate of Stars slowly vanished from its place!
Lin Yue was dumbfounded and stood rooted to the spot, then he let out a curse:
“What the hell!”
“The Golden Military General Recruitment Order (Special Edition) has taken effect. After the summoned military general integrates into the game world, he will join the player's faction!”
“Integrate into the game world?
Is this the special feature of the special edition?” Lin Yue asked, puzzled.
Could it be that the special edition of the Golden Military General Recruitment Order was to arrange a legitimate identity for the summoned military general?
To make him a native resident within the game?
This might be useful for other players,
but for me, it's like pulling down one's pants to fart, completely unnecessary!
One could even say it's utterly useless!
As a Great Qin Colonel, arranging a legitimate identity for a summoned military general would be incredibly easy and simple!
If the special edition of the Golden Military General Recruitment Order only had this effect, Lin Yue would be extremely disappointed.
After all, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment!
Lin Yue had previously fantasized about whether the special edition would summon one of the empire's twin pillars, Wei Qing or Huo Qubing. Now, thinking about it, it was truly a pipe dream; those two were at least Legendary General, far beyond what the Golden Military General Recruitment Order could summon.
Lin Yue was completely deceived by the words “Special Edition”!
“What kind of game are you playing with me?
Or are you intentionally keeping me in suspense?” Lin Yue asked.
Whether the system understood Lin Yue's words or simply continued to execute its programmed settings, Lin Yue received a reply.
“The military general has successfully integrated into the game world and is currently on his way, riding a horse!
Please be patient, player!”
“Integrate my ass! Ride my ass! Be patient my ass!” Lin Yue cursed.
Clearly, a military general had been summoned, but he wasn't sure who it was or when he would arrive. What was the difference between this and giving a cigarette but no light!
But now there was no other way. Lin Yue could only accept this fact and walked dispiritedly towards the Encampment. As soon as he arrived, he saw everyone already gathered.
“My Lord! This humble general and Li Mu have properly arranged for our fallen Brothers, and the Army has assembled, ready to depart at any time!” Liu Sandao bowed.
“Colonel, This humble general has also dealt with the Xiongnu people and is ready to depart at any time!” Du Tong also reported at this time.
“Me too!” Xing Daorong also said.
Lin Yue turned to Zhao Yun and asked, “Zi Long, how are our injured Brothers?”
Zhao Yun replied, “The injured Brothers have received simple treatment and are temporarily out of danger. The carriages have also been properly arranged, enough to transport the injured Brothers and the captives.”
“Good, then let us depart,” Lin Yue said.
“My Lord, there are many cattle and sheep here. Shouldn't we eat them before we go?” Xing Daorong asked after much hesitation.
“Time is pressing. Zhao Ponu has found enough dried beef for us to eat. We can eat as we go,” Lin Yue said in a deep voice.
Although it was a bit earlier than the two hours originally estimated, leaving earlier would reduce some risks.
“Understood!” Everyone responded!
Then Lin Yue turned back for one last look at the place before leading the White Horse Righteous Cavalry away from King Baiyang's Encampment.
Although he also wanted to bring the remaining millions of captives back to the rear to build the Great Wall, there were many Xiongnu people tribes along the way, and bringing these captives would severely affect their marching speed!
He was not Liu Xuande, who could lead many ordinary people to flee all the way, and the Xiongnu people tribes along the way were not Cao Mengde, who would be constrained by these ordinary people and unable to attack with full force.
They were a complete burden and would drag the Army into the abyss.
So, although there was some regret, Lin Yue still left.
After all, capturing King Baiyang alone made the trip worthwhile; they had effectively captured the entire high command of King Baiyang's Encampment!
After they left, the numerous tribes under King Baiyang's command, without a leader, would become a scattered mess. Fighting individually, they would only be picked off one by one by the Great Wall Legion!
It could be said that in the Ordos Loop, Great Qin could now declare an early victory.
The Xiongnu people in King Baiyang's Encampment, seeing that the White Horse Righteous Cavalry had truly withdrawn from the area, all breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like they had survived a great calamity.
They immediately began searching for relatives who had been separated by the war. Once they found each other, they would embrace tightly, weeping with joy!
But all of this was irrelevant to Lin Yue; he still had to hurry and bring King Baiyang and the other captives back to Great Qin as soon as possible!
