541: Chapter 169: A Gift for the Grim Reaper (Middle) _1 541: Chapter 169: A Gift for the Grim Reaper (Middle) _1 “Qin City is where my roots lie.

I am the ruler of Qin City and my primary consideration is its safety, the peaceful life of its people, and its future sustainable development.

So, let me ask you a question, which nation do you think we have the closest relationship with on the mainland, or specifically, the Eastern Dragon Empire?

Which country would be most beneficial to cooperate with?”

Oliveira stared at Ye Yinzhu, although he already understood Ye Yinzhu’s meaning, this was a matter of life and death for Milan, he dared not be the slightest bit negligent, “Could you give me a definitive answer?”

Ye Yinzhu solemnly said: “In the Eastern Dragon, we have a saying: ‘When the skin does not exist, where can the hair attach?’ Thanks to the Six Paths of Reincarnation, there will be at least six years of peace between Qin City and Milan.

These six years of development are undoubtedly of vital importance to Qin City.

If Milan falls, will Landias let Qin City go?

The decree of Faran is something they dare not violate.

Protecting Milan is equivalent to protecting our own Qin City.

So, Brother Oliveira, rest assured, here, I promise you as the Lord of Qin City, I will do my utmost to help Milan against its enemies.

As soon as the Three Hundred Grim Reapers return, I will lead the warriors of Qin City to the east of Milan.

Originally, during the ranking battle of the Seven Nations, Seven Dragons, the sacrifices of our partners must make the Flore Empire pay the price.”

A blush spread over Oliveira’s face, which was not shyness, but extreme excitement: “Yin Zhu, if that is the case, then I, Oliveira, am willing to entrust my life to you.

The roots of the Zi Luolan Family lie in Milan; we have already integrated with Milan, the prosperity of Milan is the prosperity of our Zi Luolan Family, conversely, the downfall of Milan will inevitably lead to the downfall of our family.

For the sake of the Empire, for the sake of our family, I am willing to devote all my strength.”

Ye Yinzhu raised his hand and slapped Oliveira’s shoulder: “Very well, let us work together again on the battlefield.

This time, we must let the Flore Empire taste the bitterness of defeat.”

As for understanding the overall situation, Oliveira was clearer than Ye Yinzhu.

After the initial excitement cooled down, he couldn’t help but ask: “Yinzhu, how many troops are you planning to send to the Eastern Frontier this time?

And how do you plan to contend with the five hundred thousand Flore Army?

The Flore have gone all out, pouring out the elite from their entire country, they have no concerns at all.”

Ye Yinzhu nodded and said: “A head-on confrontation is unrealistic.

Since they have no worries, why don’t we create some for them?

The cooperation between Flore and Landias may be their last-ditch effort, but I don’t believe the Flore Empire can ignore the changes within their own country.”

With that, Ye Yinzhu whispered a few words to Oliveira.

A look of astonishment crossed Oliveira’s face, gradually, his expression became somewhat strange, he wanted to laugh but held back, but what his eyes conveyed even more was shock.

It was clear that Ye Yinzhu’s words had given him quite a surprise.

“Attack where the enemy has to rescue.

Yin Zhu, your idea is indeed good, but it depends on speed.

Besides, this is not a task that can be acplished by our Three Hundred Grim Reaper Knights alone.

The Flore Empire is not like the Northernmost Wilderness.

The Northernmost Wilderness is too vast, and the Beastmen have no cities to congregate and defend.

The wisdom of humans is inevitably superior to that of Beastmen.

If we used the same tactics as we did in the Northernmost Wilderness, I’m afraid…”

Ye Yinzhu cracked a small smile, he said: “Big brother, don’t worry.

The same tactics can’t be used twice.

Besides, even though the brothers of the Three Hundred Grim Reapers are the main force of our operation this time, they are not the whole.

Just wait and see.

I’ll leave Hongyan in Qin City this time, you’ll e with me to the frontline, I’m at least seventy percent sure I can hold off Flore.”

Ye Yinzhu did not elaborate on the specific tactics.

It was essential to keep secrets before the operation began, but there was already a fairly prehensive plan in his mind.

Although he didn’t have many troops at his disposal, sometimes quantity didn’t determine everything, elite forces were indeed the key to victory.

After talking for a while longer, Ye Yinzhu let Oliveira rest.

He went back to his room and began to plan the uping actions.

Oliveira’s analysis of the overall situation today had undoubtedly been of great help to him.

Understanding the entire battlefield was the only way to better control the situation and determine the future direction of Qin City.

With Ye Yinzhu’s return leading the Dragon Wolf Clan, Qin City had bee bustling with activity, particularly among the craftsmen of the Dwarf Tribe and the Goblin Tribe.

They were working day and night to produce the items that Ye Yinzhu needed.

Ten days later, the Three Hundred Grim Reapers, led by Ye Hongyan, finally arrived in Qin City, worn and weary.

Upon seeing each other again, the sense of time having passed made even a tough man like Ye Hongyan’s eyes well up with tears.

Ye Yinzhu personally along with Oliveira weled Ye Hongyan and the Three Hundred Grim Reaper Warriors at the outskirts of Qin City.

The Grim Reapers had all switched into their new equipment.

Her Royal Highness, Princess Nina, was not stingy.

She not only provided them with new armor and weapons, but she also gave each Death God Soldier an Eric Minlong.

Three hundred Eric Minlongs were quite a fortune indeed.

Even though they had been marching for ten days to get here, not a trace of fatigue could be seen on the Three Hundred Grim Reaper Warriors.

Having experienced several battles, they had truly grown into powerful warriors.

Their gear was also uniform.

Apart from the seven remaining mages, the three hundred Grim Reaper Warriors were carrying heavy swords, and their mounts were equipped with a six-meter long fine steel Dragon Spear.

Their icy aura was unmatched by any Dragon Cavalry unit in the Milan Empire.

“Hongyan, you have finally arrived,” Oliveira laughed heartily as he rushed to meet them, throwing his arms around Ye Hongyan.

Ye Hongyan remained as aloof as ever, but the deep affection visible in his eyes was no less than that of Oliveira’s.

His gaze fell on Ye Yinzhu in the background, “We’re here.

Yinzhu, are we to fight side by side again?”

He did not ask why Ye Yinzhu had abruptly left without notice before.

The unspoken understanding formed on the battlefield had long granted them absolute trust in each other.

Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Yes, we will fight side by side on the battlefield again.

Hongyan, from now on, you and our Grim Reaper Soldiers are all part of Eastern Dragon.

Qin City is no longer a subsidiary of Milan, but in a cooperative relationship.

You probably already know about the specific situation, so I won’t explain it any further.

Rest for tonight, and we’ll depart first thing tomorrow morning to go to war in East Milan.

Do you remember the Blood Color Guard that launched a surprise attack on us and caused our brothers to die in battle?

This time, our target is the Flore Kingdom, which harbors the Blood Color Guard, the kingdom that betrayed its ally.”

Hearing the words “Blood Color Guard”, not only Ye Hongyan, but also the Grim Reaper warriors behind him instinctively exuded a thick murderous aura.

The cold atmosphere even gave Oliveira, who was directly in front of them, the chills.

They remembered the scene vividly, their eyes turned red.

The Grim Reaper Warriors present still vividly remembered that the rades who had sacrificed their lives had done so to protect them and for the ultimate victory of the Reaper 500.

They could never forget those forty-three mages who had chosen to self-detonate.

Ye Hongyan clenched his fists, “Yinzhu, we don’t need to rest.

We can leave at any time.”

Ye Yinzhu shook his head, “To seek the best revenge, all of us need to be in the best possible condition.

This battle won’t be short-lived; it will be a grueling long-term war.”

Ye Hongyan quickly regained his posure and gave a slow nod to Ye Yinzhu.

Seeing the deep hatred in his eyes, Ye Yinzhu realized that he couldn’t bring himself to ask Ye Hongyan to stay behind and train the Qin City cavalry.

Sighing internally, it seemed that the training of the cavalry would have to be left to others.

“Alright, my Grim Reaper Warriors, I didn’t have time to wele you in the grandest manner, but before you arrived here, I prepared a gift for you.

Now, please get off your Eric Minlong mounts, and take off your armor and weapons.”

Though the Grim Reaper Warriors weren’t sure why Ye Yinzhu had asked them to do so, their long-standing practice of obeying orders and their fidelity to Ye Yinzhu left no room for hesitation.

They all dismounted simultaneously, the clang of their armor echoing in unison as they touched the ground.

The heavy swords and Dragon Spears were unstrapped from the Eric Minlongs’ backs, followed swiftly by the removal of their armor.

With a wave of Ye Yinzhu’s hand, immediately a thousand Qin City soldiers stepped forward and took away the Eric Minlongs, as well as the Grim Reaper Warriors’ equipment.

Standing behind Ye Yinzhu, including Zi, Anya, and several Sect Masters of the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans who had not much to do, nodded approvingly.

They saw the uniform actions of the Grim Reaper Three Hundred, their equally cold expressions, and their indifferent demeanour even when their gear and mounts were taken away.

Only the elderly aunt of Ye Yinzhu, the Orchid Sect Master asked Lan Ruxue in a whisper, “Big sister, don’t these warriors care about their equipment?

From what I know, a qualified warrior should have deep feelings for their weapons, equipment, and mounts.”(To be continued, to find out what happens next, please visit , more chapters, support the author, support legitimate reading!)
