Zhan Yue - Chapter 628
Winter Sun City, City Lord Manor.
Old General Guan Yang was in a grey armor and his body gave off a majestic aura. On one side were the officials and the other side the generals. The entire Dongxing Province was managed by this bunch of people. I glanced and saw their ranks. After the system was refreshed, the ranking system became really strict.
Old General Guan Yang, one of the three Dukes of the empire. He had a purple gold flower on his armor and that was similar to a marshal. Below was the Silver Frost Army commander Wang Shuang. He had three golden stars which was commander in chief. Frost army had 150 thousand people and his position was enough for it. Further down was a general called Zhou Chong who also had three golden stars, he was the general of Winter Sun City’s Reserve Army.
Out of the generals, Wang Shuang and Zhou Chong were closest to Zhen Yang Duke which showed their importance in the province. Further behind were four generals with one golden star and they were Side Generals which were like Majors. They were the generals with silver stars, at most there were three stars and the least were two. Lower meant that their ranks were too low and they didn’t have the rights to stand here.
……
As for me, a Brilliant General, my armor had stars but I had two silver stars. Although I was the highest ranked player but I was a little brother here. But I had another identity which was a core Dragon Region member, this was more important than any rank.
“Okay.”
Guan Yang raised his hand and smiled, “PLace the army land allocation matter aside first, Sir July Wildfire is here!”
I laughed and cupped my fists respectfully, “Greetings Duke!”
“No need to be so polite.”
Guan Yang looked at me and smiled, “You definitely brought something with you right?”
“Yes, here I have my Senior Sister… Dragon Region Head Jing Yun Yue’s letter to you.”
“Oh? Please hand it over!”
“Yes!”
I walked forwards and handed the letter to a guard. When I was planning to back off, Wang Shuang waved and said, “Little brother, since you want to speak to the duke then stand beside me, it makes things convenient.”
“Oh… Okay!”
I nodded and stood beside Wang Shuang. After that, a few NPC generals with a star looked over like sharp arrows. I was exceeding my position and that was prohibited in the army, especially in cold weapons era armies. Rank represented everything. A person with silver star couldn’t be disrespectful toward one with gold star.
But no choice, Wang Shuang dragged me to the front so I had no choice but to stand there.
At the same time, I glanced at the one star Side Generals behind me and smiled. I wasn’t someone to be offended so they better behave. Their ranks might be high now but wait and see. In a week, I will exceed them!
Of course, I couldn’t say that as they wouldn’t understand even if they heard.
……
The duke finished the letter and said, “Since that is the case! Generals, let me be outright. Dragon Region needs resources and the dragons need tonnes of meat every day. The cows and goats we sent from Winter Sun City are all used up. This time, Sir July Wildfire came to solve this problem.”
“Oh?”
A middle aged official stepped out, “Duke, how is Dragon Region planning to solve that?”
“Very simple.”
Zhenyang Duke smiled, “Send the dragons out to feed. The location is south of Red Valley. There are many Flame Boars sweeping the area. This time, Dragon Region wants to send many mature dragons over to hunt them.”
“Ah?”
Zhou Chong was stunned, “Duke, Red Valley… 50 miles south of it is one of the three camps of Frost Army. I heard that Dragon Region has many dragons and there are thousands of them. If they descend, they might destroy the camp instantly. Moreover, we signed an agreement…”
“Right!”
That official nodded, “The skies of Winter Sun City belong to Xuanyuan Empire. Although we signed an agreement with Dragon Region but crossing maps is a challenge to us. We can’t allow that!”
“En?”
Guan Yang squinted his eyes and smiled, “July Wildfire do you have a way to persuade everyone?”
“…”
I turned around to look at everyone and cupped my fists, “Sirs, Dragon Region is being rebuilt because of the light, we exist to challenge the evil spirits of the Dimension Legion and dragons are what we cannot lack. Now that we have 6000 dragons, our food requirements are at a thousand tonnes. Winter Sun City’s resources are not enough to satisfy that. The labor costs needed are all going to waste. I suggest letting the dragons head to Red Valley so I will be responsible.”
“Is that so?”
Zhou Chong said, “How can you ensure that those dragons won’t attack humans?”
“I will try to restraint them.”
“How?”
A Side General said, “July Wildfire you should know that although you have Shura Bloodline but you are not the match of a mature dragon, if you can’t restraint them then how?”
“Very simple.”
I frowned, “I will let Silver Dragon Queen Sylvia restrain them with me. She is one of Dragon Region’s strongest holy dragons and she is strong enough. That should be okay right? If you don’t worry then Wang Shuang please lead an army to guide the dragons into red valley. We will eat at a certain location and won’t cross it. We won’t attack the human villages and cities.”
“Okay!”
Guan Yang laughed, “July Wildfire you really are someone that even Minister Feng thinks is a genius. Your words are straight to the point and so sharp!”
He looked towards everyone, “Dragon Region and the humans are tightly connected after signing the agreement. July Wilfire’s suggestion not only solves Dragon Region’s problem, it also reduces the burden on us. No matter what, I agree to this. Whoever disagrees can come out to discuss!”
Instantly, everyone was silent.
Wang Shuang laughed, “Don’t worry, I will personally lead Silver Frost Army’s elites along. If Dragon Region attacks, I will block right away and give you all time to lead your families away from Dongxing Province.”
Those words didn’t sound nice but I loved it!
After Wang Shuang’s words, those officials didn’t dare to speak. The generals all kept silent and even Zhou Chong cupped his fists, “Since the Duke and General have considered things so thoroughly then I have nothing to oppose, let’s just do that!”
This side jumper, annoying!
Guan Yang walked down the stairs and he smiled, “July Wildfire let’s follow your plan. Like you said, I hope that Sylvia personally leads the dragons over. With her restraint, we will be more at ease. Apart from that, can you please be on the land to lead the Frost Army soldiers and ensure that the dragons won’t attack the Dongxing Province people.”
“En, I will!”
I nodded, “Then General Wang Shuang please lead the cavalries towards the north of Red Valley to wait for me, I will meet there with you.”
“Understood!”
“Goodbye everyone!”
……
I crushed the City Return Scroll and in the next moment, I was in Dragon Region.
In the commanding hall, Yun Yue, Lan Che and Sylvia were in despair.
“What happened, what is the outcome?”
“Everything is smooth.”
I said solemnly, “But Queen Sylvia needs to head with me and restrain those dragons so that they don’t hurt humans. This shouldn’t be hard.”
“Okay.”
She nodded, “That is my role, when do we set out?”
“Anytime, you can summon those mature dragons. This time we not only need to feed them, we need them to bring enough back so that they don’t need to find more in a week. They can finish the boars in Red Valley.”
“Great, that was what I intended.”
Sylvia turned into a silver light that charged out of the window and she turned into the silver dragon form. She used dragon tongue to summon more mature dragons. Not long later, many dragons flew into the sky and only a few saint dragons were left to defend the home while the others set off!
“Junior Brother!”
Yun Yue stood up and smiled, “Thanks to you. I was so anxious, fortunately, you thought of such a solution.”
“En!”
I nodded, “Senior Sister, I need to follow them to Red Valley, let’s speak when I am back!”
“Great—”
……
I jumped out of the window and shouted towards Sylvia, “Sylvia bring me, my agreement with them is that I will follow too. Come down, let me ride you.”
“You brat, wishful thinking!”
Silver Dragon Queen shouted, “A poison dragon, go bring your Sir July Wildfire!”
A poison dragon descended from above and spat out a smelly poison. He opened his claws and grabbed me before flying up.
Damn, this was different from what I thought!
