Chapter 1161: Chapter 91: Purge the Emperor’s Side, Execute 守哲 (Seeking Monthly Votes)_3 Chapter 1161: Chapter 91: Purge the Emperor’s Side, Execute 守哲 (Seeking Monthly Votes)_3 “My mom was so happy when she received the stuff that our dinner was much more abundant than usual. It just made suffer, being kicked out of the bamboo building late at night and having to stay over at my sister’s place, who kind of despised half the night. Hehe~~”
Hearing this, the little sisters instantly understood and burst into giggles. Only that thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl was a bit clueless, not knowing what they were laughing about.
At that mont, one of the little sisters nudged Sang and said with a grin, “Hehe~ Sang, your Shanlang should be coming back soon too. I heard that a gu master in the neighboring tribe has saved up money and bought a small manor in Da Qian, took his wife and kids there to enjoy life. Has Shanlang told you when he’ll take you to Da Qian?”
“Oh, I’m not even married yet~ Why are you talking about this already?” Sang imdiately felt embarrassed and turned her head away, her cheeks blushing.
“Isn’t it just a matter of ti? Given Shanlang’s capabilities, it’s definitely possible for him to save up and buy a manor in Da Qian~~”
“I heard Da Qian is really nice, everything is better than here, it would be great if we could go there and enjoy life.”
Sang, encouraged by her words, also began to dream about the prosperity of Da Qian.
Shanlang had ntioned so things about Da Qian in his letters previously, and she found it unbelievable back then, just feeling that the people of Da Qian were amazing. If she had a chance, she’d like to go see it for herself.
While chatting and laughing, the group of young girls had already reached the other side of the mulberry forest.
Here, several iron track carts were parked, and all they needed to do was to place their backpacks in the carts, which would then slide down the track to the base of the mountain.
Later, they just had to go down the mountain to retrieve the baskets, which was much more convenient than carrying them on their backs.
The Grand Gu Master in the tribe had said that the track cart moved “due to the force of gravity.”
Sang didn’t quite understand what that ant, and probably neither did the Grand Gu Master; he had just heard it from the people of Da Qian. But no matter, as long as it was useful.
While chatting and laughing, the group of young girls returned to the tribe.
By that ti, the dawn was just breaking, and the tribe was just starting its day’s work. However, different from before, now everyone’s face was filled with longing and hope.
For they knew that their lives were getting better and better.
The “Golden Mushroom Tribe” stories were not uncommon in the Southern Frontier. More and more tribes joined the “common prosperity” plan led by Wang’s Expansion Company.
Terraces originally used for producing ager crops and spirit seeds were rapidly transford into production bases for Spirit Mulberry, regular mulberry, Spiritual Tea, and regular tea, driven by high profits.
As for the food source, that was easy.
By setting aside about ten percent of the inco from sericulture and tea production, they could buy enough food and Spirit Rice for their families’ needs through Wang’s Expansion Company.
And the rice and Spirit Rice from Wang’s were soft, chewy, and fragrant after cooking, much tastier than the earthy corn millet and Spirit Corn Millet they used to grow on the terraces.
Nowadays, only fools would plant earthy rice in the fields.
Old grandmas and grandpas, too, no longer had to go to “insect burial” because of their lack of work ability; they could raise silkworms and stir-fry tea, with plenty of residual heat to contribute.
Decades had passed, and the life of every household was looking more and more hopeful.
However, a massive crisis was looming over the Southern Frontier, completely unforeseen.
…
Flags were fluttering!
The Da Qian army crossed Tianfu County and entered the land of the Southern Frontier.
Leading the vanguard were three well-known battle groups from Da Qian: the Azure Bear Regint, Vermilion Bird Regint, and White Tiger Regint.
These three groups were among Da Qian’s renowned elite main battle groups, with each group leader being a cultivator from the Purple Abode Realm, commanding thirteen camps each requiring a cultivator from the Heavenly Human Realm to qualify for the role of chief and deputy camp leader, each camp commanding thirteen teams, with chief and deputy team leaders all being cultivators from the Spiritual Platform Realm.
Thus, an elite battle group was comprised of approximately five thousand two hundred mbers.
The powerful vanguard, consisting of about fifteen or sixteen thousand troops, built bridges over water, carved paths through mountains, and cleared pest-ridden forests wherever they went, leaving no ground unflattened.
This included the Barbarian Gu Clans of the Southern Frontier and so tribes close to Da Qian. The villagers were powerless and too scared to resist; they scattered, fleeing into the dense ancient forests.
The Da Qian army’s flanks were guarded by expert defensive battle groups, the Kui Bulls and Rhino Channels, preventing enemy attacks from the sides.
The center army was led by the famous ace battle group—five divisions of the Azure Dragon, supplented by five ordinary regints, forming a massive central army of nearly sixty thousand troops.
The Profound Martial Regint served as the rearguard, assisted by two logistical battalions maintaining the supply line.
In total, over a hundred thousand troops comprised the mighty [Southern Frontier Conquest Legion].
The legion was led by Emperor Zi’an.
However, fearing that the young Emperor Zi’an was inexperienced in military affairs, by special decree, the semi-retired Xiao Limo was appointed to oversee operations.
Xiao Limo, a legendary military god of Da Qian, was over a thousand years old and had spent his life in military service. Coming from a military family, he had earned great military rits for Da Qian by conquering West Jin and South Qin.
Even when he later served as the commander of a foreign battlefield Da Qian legion, his prowess and reputation enhanced the military prestige of Da Qian internationally, causing even the ferocious demons to fear him.
Thus, Xiao Limo was known as the legendary military god of Da Qian.
However, over a hundred years ago, while still serving as the commander of the foreign legion, Hao Commandery Prince, then regarded as the future hope of Da Qian, bravely pursued a demon troop deep into enemy territory and tragically perished after being surrounded.
