So, starting over, Chaganbayar decided to live his life earnestly.
He wanted to gain the recognition of the Da Lan Dynasty step by step as the Grassland Pride, replicating the path Li Fei once walked!
However, even though he wanted to be recognized by the Da Lan Dynasty, he didn't expect it to be this quick...
Although he was confident he wouldn't be discovered, the thought of eting Li Fei so soon, and possibly having to confront soone under his nose, made Chaganbayar feel guilty.
"Fortunately, I'm a magician and currently just at the Body Breaking Stage, so I shouldn't be required to take action, right?"
Chaganbayar thought to himself.
Suddenly, the crowd fell silent.
Chaganbayar was startled and quickly looked up.
A figure dressed in a golden robe entered the hall.
The newcor was also young, but carried a calm deanor, standing there like a sun that sohow wasn't blinding.
Chaganbayar quickly lowered his head, not daring to look more.
"Greetings to Duke Jing'an!"
Soone was the first to speak and salute, and others quickly followed:
"Greetings to Duke Jing'an!"
"Please, everyone, no need for formality."
Li Fei was amicable, waved towards everyone, and walked to the center of the hall.
"I'm sure you're all curious as to why you're being brought along for this trip to the Northern Barbarians?"
Li Fei didn't keep them guessing, nor did he say anything for appearance's sake; he got straight to the point:
"Because each of you is a pride of the Da Lan Dynasty, destined to beco pillars of the nation! His Majesty hopes that you can gain experience in the upcoming war and also hopes you can show the Northern Barbarians and the Two Desert Countries your talent, proving the potential of our Da Lan Dynasty!"
The words weren't exactly eloquent or stirring.
But the sa words, coming from different people, can have entirely different effects.
Being called the great heroes of tomorrow directly by the greatest hero in history made everyone feel valued.
Everyone felt honored!
"Great General, I have a question."
Zhao Jingfeng, who had earlier stepped forward wanting to duel soone, cautiously raised his hand.
He preferred to call Li Fei the Great General rather than Duke Jing'an, being a soldier.
The great accomplishnts Li Fei achieved in the Eastern Territory earned him the admiration of every soldier in the Eastern Border Army.
At this mont, Zhao Jingfeng looked at Li Fei with eyes full of admiration.
Li Fei looked at Zhao Jingfeng with a smile: "What is your question?"
Zhao Jingfeng, who had never been nervous even when charging into forces several tis larger on the battlefield, felt a bit nervous at this mont:
"I want to ask, how many troops are we deploying to fight the Northern Barbarians this ti? Surely we're not relying solely on our group, right?"
As a soldier, he considers things from a military perspective, so that's what he's most concerned about.
From what he knows, the court hasn't mobilized the Forbidden Army to the north this ti. Relying rely on the Northern Border Army would likely be insufficient to conquer the Northern Barbarians thoroughly.
Surely, they wouldn't have Li Fei kill through them all by himself while they watch from behind?
Even if Li Fei's combat power was enough to sweep through the entire Northern Barbarian, that wouldn't be efficient, which is not a proper stance for a war at all.
If they couldn't beat them, wouldn't the enemy flee?
No matter how invincible Li Fei was, he couldn't kill all of the millions of ants scattering through the vast mountains, right?
As long as those 'ants' are not exterminated, they will forever remain a hidden threat to the Da Lan Dynasty!
And even if they won the battle with just a handful of people, they wouldn't be able to hold any territory or take much of the spoils.
What's the point?
Li Fei looked at Zhao Jingfeng: "Besides us, the Eastern Border Army will send a contingent of the Imperial Camp Army with us, and that's all the forces we'll have."
"Ah?"
Zhao Jingfeng opened his mouth slightly.
The strongest Imperial Camp Army in the Eastern Border Army was the Green Frost Army, which was currently with Marshal Wenren blocking the gates of the West Pole Country.
But besides the Green Frost Army, the only other Imperial Camp Army from the Eastern Border Army and a single contingent won't be enough manpower.
That's not how you fight a war...
Zhao Jingfeng hesitated to speak.
Li Fei noticed his doubts and concerns, chuckled, and said:
"I understand your worries, don't worry, you'll understand once you reach the Eastern Territory."
After saying that, he encouraged everyone briefly, then left the hall.
It was only after he left that Chaganbayar dared to lift his head.
His encounters with Li Fei always seed to be life-or-death battles where both sides wanted to kill each other.
This ti, he stood at the base of the mountain, looking up at the other, while Li Fei almost completely ignored him.
"That's fine... that's just as well."
This lifeti, Chaganbayar wanted to stand before the world with absolute radiance, to shine brilliantly like Li Fei!
He didn't mind his current obscurity.
Inside the hall, everyone was buzzing with discussion, speculating on what exactly Li Fei planned to do by taking them to the Northern Barbarians.
"Is he planning to leverage national fortune to prove the Tao?"
Among all present, only Chaganbayar had a vague idea of what Li Fei intended.
Because he was considering it from the perspective of a Peak Strong Person.
He knew that Li Fei's "Peaceful World" divine skills were ford by concentrating the national fortune of the Da Lan Dynasty.
If that beca the core, and he embarked on a path of 'Peaceful World', it would be a promising road indeed!
Now, with the grassland subdued, and Li Fei having played a key role in that, it was ti for Li Fei to lead the team personally to conquer the Northern Barbarians and the Two Desert Countries.
If successful, even with the West Pole Country still standing, the other side should have a great chance to leverage national fortune to prove the Tao!
But since Li Fei doesn't practice the Military Dao, he hasn't chosen to conquer by leading troops.
Chaganbayar had a vague idea of what thod he would use.
Thinking of this, Chaganbayar felt a twinge of jealousy!
When he was the Nether River Ancestor, he was an Evil Demon hunted by all.
But if he had any other choice, who would willingly tread such a sinister path?
He endured endless hardships, put in countless thoughts, took multiple detours, and risked his life many tis before he found a tortuous path to proving the Tao.
But Li Fei, when he just broke through to beco a Great Grandmaster and a top-level True Man, already had a path to prove the Tao laid out for him!
How could people compare to that?
He looked through the hall's open doors, gazing at the clouds and the Sky Do beyond.
Chaganbayar's gaze was deep:
"One day, we will et again at the mountain's peak."
