At the beginning, the empress ordered death, and 100,000 dragon riders circled Chang'an

Beiyang City.

The dynasty was constantly making moves, and Lu Yuan was not idle either.

The sun was high in the sky.

Lu Yuan used the council hall of the city lord's mansion to gather everyone.

"Congratulations, my lord, for entering the ranks of the Martial Emperor!"

As soon as Lu Yuan showed up, everyone noticed the change in his aura.

He actually reached the realm of the Martial Emperor!

So they all looked happy and congratulated Lu Yuan.

"Tsk!"

"Okay, stop flattering me!"

"You are a bunch of half-saints, bragging about a mere Martial Emperor, isn't that embarrassing?"

Lu Yuan laughed and scolded everyone.

Those present were all half-saints.

Lu Yuan even suspected that they were Versailles.

Everyone smiled.

They would not take ordinary Martial Emperors seriously.

But now, this Martial Emperor is their lord!

How can the two be mentioned in the same breath!

At the beginning of the meeting, Xu Chu had people bring up boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, famous toys, calligraphy and paintings.

Even.

Among these gifts, there was also a box of spirit stones.

Although they were primary spirit stones, the overflowing spiritual energy still made everyone feel refreshed.

"My Lord, these are all sent by the rich families in the city this morning."

"They wanted to meet you, but I refused. Although they didn't meet you, they kept all the gifts."

"And that box of spirit stones, I don't know who sent it, I also kept it."

Xu Zhu scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

Spirit stones are essential cultivation items for cultivators, but they are the hard currency of the entire continent!

Of course.

The value is also very high!

That box of spirit stones alone can offset the value of all these things!

"Haha, they are quite well-informed!"

Lu Yuan smiled coldly.

These local gentry are all a group of fence-sitters.

Whoever has the upper hand, then rely on him.

Today, I occupied Beiyang City, and the other party could give me gifts.

If someone else took over tomorrow, they could do the same thing!

But it would be a waste if I didn't take it.

"Just accept these gifts, just as a betrothal gift to the Jiang family."

Lu Yuan didn't care about these financial matters at all.

I'm not an exchange system, so I don't need any financial matters.

Therefore.

These things are worthless to Lu Yuan!

Then, everyone started to discuss business.

"Yuxiang, is there any movement in Da Zhou?"

Lu Yuan picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea, and asked Yuxiang lightly.

Now that he has occupied Beiyang City, he doesn't believe that Da Zhou will not have no reaction!

As an intelligence organization that has infiltrated the entire Da Zhou, Xiyu will definitely be the first to know the news!

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang reported the intelligence she had collected to Lu Yuan:

"My Lord, according to Xiyu's intelligence, the Great Zhou has once again sent 300,000 imperial guards!"

"The other continents are also constantly dispatching troops to Bingzhou!"

"And... Wang Hu, the leader of the Northern Great Wall Corps, has also sent 300,000 border troops to encircle and suppress us!"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"The Great Wall Corps is coming too?"

"Humph! This empress mobilized the Great Wall Corps without authorization. Isn't she afraid that the Northern Barbarian Empire will take the opportunity to march south!"

Lu Yuan snorted coldly.

Lu Yuan is no stranger to the Northern Great Wall Corps.

After all.

That was founded by his predecessor, his father!

As the name suggests, the Great Wall Corps is usually stationed on the Northern Great Wall, ready to resist the southern invasion of the Northern Barbarian Empire at any time.

It is estimated that the empress also feels that her threat is far greater than that of the Northern Barbarian Empire.

That’s why they transferred the Great Wall Army to destroy me.

However.

As a barrier against the Northern Barbarian Empire, the Great Wall Army was transferred away.

If the Northern Barbarian Empire knew about it, they would definitely take advantage of this weak opportunity to invade the Northern Territory!

“My Lord, please forgive me for being blunt.”

“Wasn’t the Great Wall Army founded by your father? How could it be…”

“How could they come to fight me, the son of the founder, right?”

Lu Yuan directly expressed everyone’s doubts.

Lu Yuan showed a hint of sarcasm on his face:

"Humph! It's because the previous Zhenbei King was stubborn and loyal, and he insisted on requiring his subordinates to be loyal to the emperor!"

"When the Great Wall Army was founded, the soldiers were instilled with the idea of ​​unlimited loyalty to the emperor."

"No matter what, no matter what the situation, they are only loyal to the Great Zhou!"

"Now that the empress has spoken, those brainwashed fools in the Great Wall Army will naturally send troops!"

"After all, they are loyal to the Great Zhou, hehe."

Lu Yuan already knew the reason.

This is why Lu Yuan never contacted the Great Wall Army from the beginning.

Because the Great Wall Army only recognizes tiger talismans and not people!

And.

Wang Hu, the current commander of the Great Wall Corps, had already surrendered to the Empress and became her lackey.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

His father in his previous life was really loyal.

If he knew that the power he had created was now going to attack his son.

How would he feel?

"It's just the Great Wall Corps, come if you want!"

"I won't be soft-hearted just because they are my father's subordinates!"

"They attacked me from afar and became my enemies, so they must be prepared to die!"

Lu Yuan's eyes flashed coldly.

Even though the Great Wall Corps defended the border and shed blood and sweat for the Great Zhou, they were real soldiers!

Moreover.

They were the direct descendants of my father in my previous life!

But as long as they became my enemies, I would never be soft-hearted!

If they were my enemies, I would kill them!

Besides.

It would not be easy for them to pass Yumen Pass!

"The Great Wall Army must pass Yumen Pass to go south."

"Facing the 300,000 Great Wall Army, the 10,000 Northern Army guarding Yumen Pass will definitely be under pressure."

"Let Xie Xuan and the others hold on as long as I annihilate the 300,000 Imperial Guards in Bingzhou, the Great Wall Army will not have to worry about it!"

Lu Yuan said confidently.

Although the Northern Army only has 10,000 people, they are all elite!

It is enough to make the Great Wall Army suffer a lot when it goes south!

......

Just when Lu Yuan was formulating a strategy to go south.

At this time, Ying Mo suddenly appeared in the room and knelt on one knee in front of Lu Yuan:

"Report to the master!"

"We, the Shadow Guards, have captured some sneaky unknown people near Beiyang City."

"We suspect that they have ill intentions. Through interrogation, we have confirmed that these people are the scouts of various forces!"

"Oh? It seems that various forces are very interested in us!"

Lu Yuan smiled and did not feel surprised.

He made such a big noise and attracted the attention of all forces in the entire Great Zhou.

Whether it is to eat melons or for any other purpose.

Those forces will definitely send people to check it out!

"Ying Mo, where are the people you captured?"

Hearing this, Ying Mo clapped his hands.

A group of Shadow Guards appeared immediately, leaving behind more than a dozen tied figures.

Each of them has a high cultivation level, at least starting from a great martial artist.

That's right.

For those who can become scouts, how low can their cultivation level be!

......
