218: Rest for ten days

Everyone returned to the rear with the Golden Fire Cavalry, their faces beaming with joy.

Lin Yue had just handed over King Baiyang and the other captives to the Golden Fire Cavalry for safekeeping.

The Golden Fire Cavalry would escort them all the way, and Lin Yue and the others were finally free, no longer needing to be on edge.

Not far away, Zhao Yun, Xing Daorong, and Liu Sandao found themselves very compatible with General Yang Ye, especially Zhao Yun, who was discussing spear techniques with General Yang Ye, leaving General Yang Ye astonished.

Although General Yang Ye now wielded a Golden-Backed Mountain-Chopping Saber, what he learned in his youth was the Yang Family Spear, passed down from his ancestors! The Seven Young Masters and Eight Tigers of the Yang Family also used spears, and their current exchange of spear techniques left General Yang Ye quite shocked.

He couldn't help but sigh, truly realizing that there is always someone better, and there is always a higher peak to reach.

"Jiye, you said earlier that you are from Shenmu City?" Lin Yue asked.

"Yes, our family lives in Shenmu City," General Yang Ye replied with a smile.

"Clap!"

She Jian, standing nearby, slapped his thigh hard and sighed.

The Shenmu Military Camp was near Shenmu City, and yet She Jian had been completely unaware of such a fierce general beside him, ultimately leading to a missed opportunity, filling him with regret!

Lin Yue saw this and smiled, thinking that even if She Jian turned Shenmu City upside down, he probably wouldn't find General Yang Ye's family; they were integrated into this world by the game system. One could say that The Yang Clan Generals came because of him!

But it was also a coincidence; Ouyang Xiu's "Epitaph for Assistant Officer Yang, Director of the Supply Bureau" clearly recorded General Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao as Qin People from Xinqin, Linzhou, which is Shang Commandery's Shenmu City in the game!

Perhaps it was a coincidence in the dark that he was able to summon General Yang Ye's family this time!

She Jian on the side sighed repeatedly, but Lin Yue ignored She Jian's actions and asked General Yang Ye the question he cared about most: "Jiye, who else is in your family?"

General Yang Ye smiled and said, "I still have my old wife and two young daughters at home, all in Shenmu City."

It matched!

Lin Yue was overjoyed, it must be the famous Lady She, She Saihua!

She Saihua was proficient in the She Family Saber techniques, and her Flying Copper Hammer was especially unique, having once defeated General Yang Ye with it. Regardless of whether General Yang Ye did it on purpose, She Saihua's high martial arts skill was absolutely true!

Moreover, in her later years, She Saihua even led armies into battle, guiding The Yang Clan Generals to establish meritorious deeds, displaying divine military strategy, and upholding the banner of the Yang Family!

Such a talent, comparable to Liang Hongyu, would definitely not escape his grasp!

This special edition Golden Military General Recruitment Order was truly worth it!

Other recruitment orders yielded one person, but this one brought twelve people along!

Lin Yue could literally wake up laughing from a dream!

Everyone chuckled, their nerves, stretched taut from days of rushing, finally able to relax. After a thrilling and adventurous journey, the road home is always pleasant and full of anticipation.

After two days of marching, the White Horse Righteous Cavalry, accompanied by the Golden Fire Cavalry, arrived at General General Meng Tian's temporary Encampment!

"Luo Jia, thank you!" She Jian clasped his hands and smiled.

"General, there's no need for that, this is This humble general's duty," Luo Jia said, clasping his hands in refusal.

She Jian then reported his name to Lin Yue and stepped into the main tent.

"This humble general greets the Great General!" the two saluted!

"Sit!" General Meng Tian laughed heartily.

"Understood!" The two did not dare to refuse and took their seats.

"Lin Yue, I see you again!" General Meng Tian said with a smile.

Lin Yue had just touched the stool when he stood up again, but General Meng Tian waved him to sit down.

"You performed well this time, leading a lone Army on a thousand-mile assault, sweeping through everything, capturing King Baiyang alive, and burying a million Xiongnu Army!

It truly boosted our Army's morale, and the right flank of the Army has been revitalized by you." General Meng Tian said with a smile, then looked at She Jian with admiration and said:

"You also did well, relentlessly attacking and opening a path for Wang Li's Hundred-Battle Armor-Piercing Army. You two did not disgrace our Golden Fire Cavalry!

I have already written a battle report regarding your memorials, and it will be sent to Xianyang along with King Baiyang and others, to be presented before His Majesty."

Both were from the Golden Fire Cavalry; She Jian was once a Colonel of the Golden Fire Cavalry, and Lin Yue was once General Meng Tian's personal Squad Leader. One could say they were General Meng Tian's confidants.

Moreover, being able to appear before His Majesty, even if it's just their names, was enough to excite She Jian for an entire night! Lin Yue still remembered She Jian's appearance at the last court session, as devout as a believer facing a deity.

Lin Yue didn't feel that way; behind The First Emperor's twelve jade tassels of his crown, Lin Yue always felt a pair of eyes watching him, and the powerful aura made Lin Yue uncomfortable, even a little fearful.

Before Lin Yue could continue his thoughts, General Meng Tian's voice sounded again:

"And Zong Ze, under your command, emerged as a Rebel Army, and has now captured five more tribes. Your right flank Army has now left the left flank Army behind, so it seems our plan to occupy the entire Henan region before summer can be completed ahead of schedule."

She Jian and Lin Yue were excited; Zong Ze was closely related to them, and his outstanding military achievements were definitely good news for them!

"She Jian, return to the front line and tell Wang Li that while the current progress exceeds expectations, it is still far from enough!

King Baiyang's territory now only has a rabble left!

I give him one month to occupy the entire territory of King Baiyang!" General Meng Tian's tone shifted, and he said in a deep voice.

"Understood!" The two stood up and responded.

"Lin Yue, you don't need to go back.

Your White Horse Righteous Cavalry have been on a long march and are in urgent need of rest. I'll give you ten days to recuperate.

After ten days, I will replenish your warhorses!

But for men, you'll have to ask She Jian; the entire Army is short on men right now, and I can do nothing about it.

Even if the Great Wall Legion has ten million troops, it is still too few for the Henan region." General Meng Tian said with a slight frown.

"Understood!" Lin Yue responded.

There was nothing that could be done about this; it was simply impossible to have a long pavilion every ten li and a short pavilion every five li in the vast grasslands of the Henan region, as was common within Great Qin.

Even in later generations, students from a certain town on the grasslands still had to travel 135 kilometers to take the college entrance exam each year, taking two days to arrive. How much more so in a game world a hundred times larger.

The sparse population was not something one person, or a few people, could change.

"Alright, go rest, Luo Xi will arrange things for you," General Meng Tian said with a smile.

"Understood! This humble general takes his leave!" Lin Yue and She Jian walked out of the Encampment together.

She Jian immediately prepared to rush back to the front line, and Lin Yue saw him off to the gate of the Encampment.

"Kid, I'll send the men to you as soon as possible. Rest assured." She Jian stepped out of the Encampment, patted Lin Yue's shoulder, and smiled.

"Thank you, General." Lin Yue clasped his hands.

"What's with the 'thank you' between us? What's our relationship?" She Jian feigned anger:

"We are brothers!"

Lin Yue felt a pang in his nose, remembering his first meeting with She Jian, She Jian's meticulous care for him, and then saving him twice. He couldn't help but sigh, this was truly a good elder brother!

"Yes!" Lin Yue nodded in agreement.

Without She Jian, he would never have grown to where he was today, nor would he have risen to his current position so quickly!

Having such a good elder brother was truly his good fortune!

Seeing this, She Jian finally smiled, stepped forward, put an arm around Lin Yue's shoulder, and chuckled.

When Lin Yue saw that familiar lewd smile, an alarm bell went off in his heart, and he suddenly realized!

"Virtuous Brother, that General Yang Ye..."

"General, my stomach hurts, I'll go ahead!" Lin Yue suddenly bent over and escaped She Jian's grasp!

He then ran into the Encampment with all his might, completely ignoring She Jian's angry curses!

She Jian watched Lin Yue's retreating figure, pointing at him and cursing non-stop!

Lin Yue ran a long way before looking back. Seeing that She Jian hadn't caught up, he stopped and smiled as he watched She Jian shouting angrily in place.

This was the She Jian he knew!
