Imperial Demon Slayer Division

Wang Hao nodded slightly and said

"Master Gu, Master Huailin asked me to invite you over to discuss sending troops to the South China Sea Islands to attack the Poseidon Alliance."

Gu Yan nodded slightly, then took off the token from his waist, handed it to Gong Jue next to him, and said

"Go to the arsenal and give the brothers the elixirs, talismans, etc. needed for this battle."

During this battle, among the senior leaders of the Yezhou Demon Slayer Division, Lin Wu, Xiang Kui and others stayed at the Yezhou base camp, while Gu Yan only brought Gong Jue with him.

After Gong Jue took the token, he cupped his fists and saluted Gu Yan and said

"obey"

After Gong Jue finished speaking, he turned around and left, leading the Demon Slayer towards the arsenal.

After Gong Jue left, Gu Yan cast his eyes on Wang Hao and said

"Master Wang, let's go to the Prefecture Mufu"

Wang Hao nodded, stretched out his hand and said,

"My lord, please"

After the two of them left the Demon Slayer Division, they walked all the way to the Prefecture Mufu.

When passing by the small restaurant where Cang Feng was causing trouble that day, the proprietress and the boss of the restaurant happened to be standing at the door chatting. When they saw Gu Yan passing by, they quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"The grass-roots people have met Mr. Gu. How is Mr. Gu doing lately?"

After Gu Yan saw the two of them, a gentle smile appeared on his face and said

"I'm a very good officer. I've been a little busy this year and I haven't gone out to eat. How has your business been recently? Has anyone from the Poseidon Alliance ever gone to cause trouble?"

The boss shook his head and said

"Thanks to my lord, no one from the Poseidon Alliance has come back since you left. The people in the city know that your lord often comes to the shop to eat, and the business has improved a lot."

After hearing this, Gu Yan hummed softly and said

"As long as the business is good, if someone does what Cang Feng did that day again, you can report it to the Demon Slayer Department or the State Shepherd's Office on your own. I have important things to do today. When I am free, I can drink the wine you brewed. "

After Gu Yan finished speaking, he and Wang Hao continued walking in the direction of the Prefecture Mufu.

The boss and his wife bowed to Gu Yan's back and said

"Thank you, sir. Please walk slowly."

After Gu Yan and Wang Hao walked away, Wang Hao said with emotion

"It has been 3,000 years since the founding of our Great Qin Dynasty, and more than 2,000 years since the establishment of the Demon Slayer Division. Among the successive town officials and state pastors in this land of ten states, I can probably count on one hand those who are as close to the people as Mr. Gu."

After hearing this, Gu Yan shook his head indifferently and said

"If the human race is a big tree, then the common people are the roots of the human race. Even if it is as strong as the Martial Immortal, it is born from the common people. We absorb the nutrients brought by the foundation, and naturally we must treat them well."

After hearing this, Wang Hao nodded in agreement.

"When Yezhou was established, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty thought that the people of Yezhou would not have a sense of belonging to the Qin Dynasty if they did not have dozens or hundreds of years. I did not expect that my lord has been in Yezhou for less than ten years. This situation has made the people of Yezhou completely become the people of Great Qin."

Gu Yan put his hands behind his back and said as he walked

"All of this is not just the result of this officer. If Master Huailin and Master Wang hadn't launched so many policies to benefit the people, I'm afraid there wouldn't have been any big changes in Yezhou in the past few years."

The two of them walked and chatted, and soon they arrived outside the Zhou Mu Mansion.

Wang Hao stretched out his hand and said,

"Master Gu, Master Huai is waiting for you in the lobby, please come with me."

"Um"

......

In the lobby of the Prefectural Mufu Mansion, Huai Lin was sitting on the front seat, drinking tea slowly.

After seeing Gu Yan coming, he quickly put down the teacup, stood up and cupped his fists.

"Master Gu is here, please take a seat."

Gu Yan cupped his fists and returned the salute, then sat on the chair and said

"Master Huai, you also know His Majesty's will. I don't know what Master Huai plans to do."

Wang Hao picked up the teapot, poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Yan, and then gestured to the attendants in the lobby. Upon seeing this, the attendants quickly put down their work and walked out of the lobby quickly.

Huai Lin pondered for a moment and then said

"His Majesty's will is for us to go south together to quell the chaos, but we cannot leave Yezhou for a long time at the same time, so this battle must be resolved quickly."

"Yezhou's army is in trouble when dealing with forces such as the Poseidon Alliance, which combine martial arts families, sects, and casual cultivators. They need to open up battles and put out war equipment. This takes too long."

"The Yezhou Demon Slayer Division now has more than 25,000 demon slayers and nearly 2,000 demon slayer officers. It can be said that their strength has grown by leaps and bounds. Therefore, I want the Demon Slayer Division to be the main attacker in this battle, and the Yezhou Navy to fight. Assist and directly sweep Southern Xinjiang with thunderous momentum."

Huai Lin's idea coincides with Gu Yan's. Now that evil spirits are rampant in Yezhou, it is indispensable for the powerful people from the four realms to be in charge.

Besides, things could change in the Imperial Capital at any time, and Gu Yan didn't have that much time to waste on those monkeys in the Southern Islands.

Gu Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said

"I fully agree with Master Huai's idea. Before coming to the Mufu Mansion, I ordered 5,000 demon-slayers on the school grounds, and 300 demon-slayers followed me south to quell the chaos."

"Since Mr. Huai plans to let me, the Demon Slayer Division, be the main attacker, let's do this. I will add another five thousand demon slayers and two hundred demon slayer officers. However, for the demons in Yezhou Mansion, the Prefecture Mufu Mansion also needs to provide a share. force"

After hearing this, Huai Lin didn't even think about it and just nodded in agreement.

According to the usual practice, the army has always been the main attack, and the Demon Slayer Division is only responsible for dealing with the strong enemies of the enemy, just like it did when the Night Kingdom was destroyed.

Now that time is running out, Gu Yan doesn't have much time to waste, so he directly lets the Demon Slayer Division be the main attacker.

"Then I will send 10,000 Yezhou navy troops here, plus two hundred warships equipped with ship-borne guns. What do you think, Mr. Gu?"

The purpose of these 10,000 Yezhou naval forces is actually to clean up the battlefield for the Demon Slayer Division rather than to attack cities and seize territory.

Gu Yan nodded, stood up and said

"In that case, let's make it this way and let's discuss the specific details of the battle."

Huai Lin nodded and said

"Master Wang, go and invite Shi Jian, the military officer."

"Yes, my lord"

After Wang Hao cupped his fists and saluted, he quickly walked out of the lobby and walked towards Shi Jian's office area.

Bingcao is the official in charge of military affairs in the state. All military affairs in Yezhou are entirely responsible for Shi Jian. However, although he is in charge of military affairs, Huailin does not give him the power to dispatch troops and generals.

After about a stick of incense, Shi Jian came. After entering the lobby, he cupped his fists and saluted to Huai Lin and Gu Yan respectively.

"Shi Jian, the lower official, please see Mr. Huai and Mr. Gu."

Huai Lin pointed to the chair next to him and said

"Master Shi, no courtesy, I have called you here to discuss the matter of going south to quell the chaos."

......

Several people discussed in the lobby for half an hour, and after finalizing all the battle matters, Shi Jian took Huailin's tiger talisman and went to mobilize the troops.

It was troublesome to mobilize the navy. Unlike the Demon Slayer Division, which could go straight to the battlefield, Shi Jian rode his horse and went straight to the navy camp.

After the discussion, Gu Yan returned directly to the Demon Slayer Division and ordered another 5,000 Demon Slayer Envoys and 200 Demon Slayer Officers.

In the early morning two days later, the 10,000 demon-slaying envoys and 500 demon-slaying officers in the Demon-Slaying Division gathered on the campus of the Division.

Gu Yan glanced at the murderous elites in front of him and said loudly:

"set off!"
