The Emperor is Above

Chapter 226: Never Embarrass the Lord
Qing Yi considers himself to be very Buddhist.

Since he couldn't get along with the king's eldest son, he didn't bother to deal with him.

Unexpectedly, when I didn't go to the mountain, the mountain came to me, and Xing Boyun came to me on his own.

He was entrusted with the important task of commanding tens of thousands of troops, but instead of rushing to suppress the wild people in Jiming Lake, he came to Guqiu to act arrogantly and domineeringly. Unexpectedly, he was given a warning by the Great Wilderness Dragon Eagle.

When the militia on duty on the sentry tower of Guqiu Mound brought news that tens of thousands of Xing State troops were approaching Guqiu Mound, they saw several large banners in the distance with the names of the king's eldest son, the commander of the Black Armor Cavalry, the lieutenant commander of the middle division, etc.

No matter how unhappy he was, since he still had to develop in the system of enfeoffment and vassalage in the State of Xing, Qing Yi still had to line up the stewards, elders, and retainers of the fiefdom of Guqiu together with the private army, subjects, and countrymen to welcome them.

While Qing Yi was tidying up the clothes of the sergeants, Gongsun Wu, the housekeeper, was even busier, constantly urging everyone not to embarrass the lord:
"Hurry up, hurry up, Qi Ji, Qu Bing, clean up your giant rhinoceros mounts, and put on the giant rhinoceros armor that Corporal Tushi Gu has made for you. Today you are the heavy cavalry guard."

"Daniu, why are you still standing here? The giant rhinoceros is about to go on stage, and you twelve green rhinoceroses must also go on stage. Hurry up and put saddles on them, don't embarrass the master."

"King Wangmang Fish, the twelve members of the Wangmang clan must remember this clearly. You are now all retainers under Sergeant Guqiu Yi. Make sure you remember it correctly. Hurry up and put on your armor and follow behind the lord to serve as his guard."

"Uncle Chai, I'm too busy here. You lead the private army and militia to line up at the gate of Guqiu Fengtu first. I still have to notify the four elders of the Longjiu family to come out."

"Hey, hey, hey, Aunt Hua, you Lonely Hill female soldiers shouldn't join in the fun today, okay? Well, as long as the Lord agrees that you can come out, I certainly have no objection."

When tens of thousands of troops stopped four miles away from Guqiu Fengtu, they were all shocked by the lineup of Guqiu Fengtu. The first thing that caught their eyes were naturally the twelve giant warriors of the Wangmang clan who looked like gods descended from heaven.

During this period, Tun Shigu led dozens of craftsmen to carefully make full body armor for them, which were then matched with spears and halberds made of the leg bones of fourth-grade crocodile dragons, giving people a great visual impact.

Qing Yi was wearing the black robe of a senior sergeant, a cloud-shaped swan crown on his head, a snake-skin belt around his waist, a senior sergeant's sword hanging from his waist, and cloud-patterned black boots on his feet. He looked like a handsome young vassal.

Even though he was only riding an ordinary giant-hoofed wild horse, he still brought irresistible amazement to people. Even Taishu Bingxin and Liangqiu Juzhong couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

As an old acquaintance, Bai Ze sighed with deep feeling and said, "This Senior Sergeant Guqiu Yi, the brothers of the three divisions of our capital like to call him Brother Yi. Last year, he was just a lower-ranking officer in Maoqiu Pavilion and Huaiqiu. He lost his blessings at a young age and had no one to rely on.

This spring, he came to the capital once and was bullied by a gatekeeper of the city guards. Unexpectedly, this triggered a big fight in February. When he was confined to the camp of the Left Division, he also invented rugby, which became popular in the capital and the army.

In March, when the Left Division went to the northern border town to fight, Captain Ran You visited me specifically and asked me to take care of him. I didn't expect that in just over half a year, he would become a senior vassal and have such a powerful force under his command.

Look at the twelve Wangmang clan giant warriors behind him. Their physical strength alone is enough to surpass that of a fifth-grade warrior. Now with sophisticated armor and weapons, I'm afraid one of them can take on several fifth-grade warrior masters.

The Giant Rhino and Blue Rhino Heavy Cavalry are nothing but empty shells, but have you noticed the private soldiers and militiamen under his command? There are 40 private soldiers and more than 200 young and strong militiamen, and not a single one of them is below the ninth-grade warrior realm. "

"It is indeed so! Guqiu's 40 private soldiers and hundreds of militiamen are all above the ninth rank!" Taishu Bingxin observed carefully, with a flash of horror in his eyes.
"Even in the so-called elite Third Division, the ordinary soldiers are only at the middle level of body forging, and only those above the rank of sergeant can reach the ninth-grade warrior realm, which means that only one out of ten is ninth-grade. It seems that based on Gu Qiu's current strength, it is at least comparable to the combat power of the Third Division and the Guard Brigade of more than 3,000 people. If the giant warriors and the four dragon eagles are added, it will be far better than a brigade."

Liang Qiu Juzhong listened carefully to what the two said, observing them seriously, and said in a more serious tone: "Don't just focus on the Guqiu private army and militia. Did you notice the group of women and boys wearing ordinary armor at the end of the team?
I counted and there are at least sixty to seventy women and twenty teenagers, all of whom are above the ninth rank. This shows that the Third Division and the City Guards are not even as good as a group of women and teenagers. "

"Alas, he has become so powerful in just half a year, I wonder how he did it!" Bai Ze sighed in shock and envy, "In fact, I want to understand more about how he subdued these Wangmang clan giant warriors and the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture.

During the battle of fifteen cities in the southeast last month, it was heard that the Black Wind Tribe dispatched hundreds of Wangmang clan giant warriors to Sheri City, but those giant warriors were forced and captured by the Black Wind Tribe and became slave warriors.

The twelve giant warriors of the Wangmang clan in front of him looked as happy as idiots, completely different from the bitter-faced people of the Black Wind Tribe. I really don't know how he did it.

Besides, the Great Wilderness Dragon Vulture is well known for its brutality and cruelty. Look at these four people lined up neatly, following closely behind. Who would dare to believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes?"

Taishu Bingxin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and turned to look at Xing Boyun who was being carried by two black-armored cavalrymen on a soft sedan chair: "My lord, you have a prejudice against Senior Sergeant Guqiu Yi, but now you have also seen that his methods are extraordinary.

Commander Liang Qiu and I are no match for these four third-grade Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures alone. Do you still remember that during the last battle at Luqiu, there were four tree spirits at Guqiu, and we were not their match either!
It is a good thing that the country has such a powerful young vassal. Once he is used well, it will be easy to expand the territory in the future. You should not act on impulse, but get along with him well. "

Xing Boyun had been filled with envy and jealousy when he saw Guqiu's powerful formation. At this time, Taishu Bingxin was admonishing him like a child. He was almost mad to death, but he had no choice but to keep a gloomy face and hold his breath without saying a word.

How could Qing Yi know what happened to Xing Boyun and the others? He rode his horse forward and met Bai Ze, who was at the front. He bowed and laughed, saying, "Captain Bai Ze, I haven't seen you for a long time. I would like to congratulate you on your great victories in Luqiu and Dunqiu."

"Haha, Brother Yi, you are so modest. The victory of Luqiu was made possible by your contribution. If the victory of Guqiu had not shocked tens of thousands of people in Luqiu, how could we have won so easily? Moreover, our trophies in Luqiu are numerous, but not as good as your victory in Guqiu."

Bai Ze Duwei smiled and dismounted his horse, holding Qing Yi's hand, and introduced him enthusiastically: "This is the commander of the Black Armor Cavalry, Liang Qiu Juzhong, and this is the commander of Taishu Bingxin, whom you met last time in Luqiu."

Liang Qiu Juzhong had been quietly looking at the four giant dragon eagles and the twelve giant warriors of the Wangmang clan behind Qing Yi. At this moment, he finally couldn't help but ask:
"Sergeant Guqiu Yi, although this is the first time we meet, I have heard of your great name for a long time. Today I see that your reputation is well-deserved. Could these four Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures be your contracted fierce birds?"

Qing Yi smiled and shook his head, saying, "That's not the case. These four Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures were originally my friends. The great victory at Guqiu was all thanks to their help, but now they have all become the elders of my Guqiu Fengtu.

As for the twelve Wangmang giants, they are my retainers. The other two riding the giant rhinoceros heavy cavalry are my two brothers, and the Wangmang Fish King is also their uncle. "

"Family elder? Retainer? Brother-in-law? Uncle?"

Liang Qiu Juzhong's eyes were filled with shock as he savored the identities Qing Yi mentioned. It seemed that the relationship had developed to such an extent in such a short period of time that it would be very difficult for others to poach him. He really admired the skills of this young man.
