The Emperor is Above

Chapter 481: Unity through Struggle (320+ additional chapters)

Shen Buhai bowed with a flushed face.

Shen Bumie looked at him with a complicated expression, then turned to look at Qing Yi.

Shen Bubing's face turned pale. He turned his head to look elsewhere, but he didn't say anything.

Yang Lezi Shangqing, who had suffered a lot of hardships in the past month, felt sour and envious at this moment.

These generals from the royal family of the Great Shen Dynasty and the princes have been looking down on the State of Xing since they arrived. Did they never expect that this day would come?

The other princes and generals had solemn expressions and no one spoke. They all looked at Qing Yi, wondering how this young, terrifying, powerful and frightening young vassal would react to the scene before them.

As everyone was paying attention, Qing Yi quickly stepped forward to help Shen Buhai up, and said sincerely: "Captain, there is no need to be like this. Do you think I am really an aggressive person?
The reason why I took a tough stance yesterday was that I saw how much you all despised the State of Xing. If I just flattered and gave in, it would only make you look down on me even more.

Therefore, I believe that unity will survive if it is achieved through struggle, but will die if it is achieved through compromise. I have to appear a little tough, even if this may cause misunderstandings among you.

Now, the coalition army of Xianyu, Yuezhi and foreign tribes in the wilderness has a million people, intending to join forces to march south to seize the land of the northern wilderness. This is a crisis that Xing State has not faced in hundreds of years, and it is also a crisis for all countries in Zhongzhou.

Once the State of Xing and the Seventy-Six States in the Northern Wilderness are completely destroyed, how can the prosperous and peaceful countries in Central China not be coveted and spied on by the powerful enemies occupying the Northern Wilderness?
The more we face this unprecedented crisis, the more we must work together to destroy the Ghost Witch tribe first, and then fight against the Xianyu and Yue clan armies. Only in this way can we fight for a glimmer of hope!"

"Shaoqing's intentions are far-reaching. It is us who are shallow-minded and too arrogant. Now I think about it and feel ashamed!" Shen Buhai felt even more ashamed when he heard Qing Yi's words.
"Besides, I have already sworn that the sixty-five Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures are indeed far superior to the Golden Eagle Flying Cavalry under my command. From now on, Shao Qing can just give me orders."

"Haha, we were just talking about flying cavalry, but these dragon vultures are my retainers. There are no flying cavalry soldiers cooperating with them, so they don't count, they don't count!"

Qing Yi very generously gave Shen Buhai the way down, which made Shen Bumie next to him feel relieved, and his eyes became much softer when he looked at Qing Yi.

Most of the two or three hundred princes and generals had a good impression of Qing Yi. Many of them even reflected on their actions after entering Xing State, and bowed their hands sincerely to apologize:
"We came to Xingguo to fight against foreign invasion, but after entering Xingguo, we were so picky and made so many jokes. I hope Yang Lezi Shangqing and Longcheng Yi Shaoqing will forgive us."

"We have lost our original intentions in the prosperous land of Zhongzhou. Fortunately, Yang Lezi Yaqing is open-minded and Longcheng Yi Shaoqing has good intentions. From now on, we will definitely work together to unite and fight the enemy."

Of course, there were some dissatisfied generals like Shen Bubing among the coalition forces, but under the general situation they had to shut their mouths and remain silent with embarrassed expressions.

It was the first time that Yang Lezi received so much respect from the Allied Generals. He was so happy that his heart was bubbling with joy, but he was even more delighted about the opportunity that had come.

He immediately laughed loudly to the allied generals and said, "It is enough for everyone to know that I have been working hard all along. It would be better if everyone is united.

I thought that the Dragon Eagle retainers under the command of Longcheng Yi Shaoqing would serve as scouts for the army, and the Golden Eagle Flying Cavalry under Shen Buhai would serve as messengers in the middle, so they would each perform their duties accordingly."

"We have no objection to Lord Yang Lezi's arrangement!"

Hearing everyone's approval, Yang Lezi, feeling happy, turned his head to look at Qing Yi again, bowed cautiously and asked:
"I heard from City Guard Tian Bin that Shao Qing is planning to set up a trap in Yangwu City to completely destroy the Ghost Witch Tribe. What kind of assistance do you need?"

Yang Lezi had a strong desire to show off, and Qing Yi did not object to his high profile. After a little thought, he bowed to Yang Lezi and Shen Buhai and said with a smile: "This matter still requires the great assistance of the mage battalion under the command of the commander." "If there is any need for us, just give us the order!" Shen Buhai nodded without hesitation, and then instructed Zhao Wensheng, "Please cooperate with us, sir!"

"Don't worry, Captain!"

Zhao Wensheng's skinny old face had an expression of overwhelming confidence.

"When it comes to flying cavalry, we may not be as good as the Great Wilderness Dragon Eagle under the command of Young Lord Yi of Dragon City. But in runes, refining, mechanical arts, and formations, the Diqiu Tai Academy is the best in the world!"

"Sir, we can't create those golden-armored giants!"

A young Tai student of about seventeen or eighteen years old timidly interjected in the back, almost angering the smug old gentleman to death.

"War puppets? They are just weapon-refining puppets. We have thousands of magic practitioners in Tai Academy and Diqiu. If we gather together, we can definitely develop one."

Zhao Wensheng said with a slightly embarrassed look, "But you have also seen that the dozen puppets under Shao Qing's command consume so many high-quality crystals for just a little movement, and fighting consumes even more top-quality crystals.

We don't have to fight in Zhongzhou right now, so there's no need to make this thing. Otherwise, we would definitely be able to make it in a few months. Yes, there's definitely no problem!"

Qing Yi had a faint smile on his face, not caring about the old man's words at all. The reason why Longcheng Fengtu had achieved such an achievement in just a few months was based on the lifelong efforts of the puppet masters for more than 40 years.

With the hard work of Qing Yi and Pan Qing, as well as the creative thinking of other students such as Yang Hu, the sparks of wisdom collided together to produce this fruit of hard work.

Although Diqiu Academy has a huge number of elites, it is still too difficult to create war puppets in just one or two years. Just look at the disdainful expressions of those young students and you will know that the old man is just trying to save face.

Therefore, Qing Yi smiled and asked Daniu to bring a roll of blueprints: "I plan to turn the entire Yangwu City into a huge ambush killing formation, everyone, please have a look--"

"Huh? Wait, this isn't parchment? It's not made of any other animal skin, and it's so wide and smooth?"

With a look of surprise, Zhao Wensheng reached out and touched the paper with densely drawn rune patterns. He could feel a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy on the white and smooth paper.

The rune formation drawn above is not a simple pattern. Colorful rays of light shine everywhere in the formation, making people feel dazed.

Hundreds of mages accompanying the army were shocked when they saw this scene: "There is actually paper in this world that can be used to draw formations without the need for exotic animal skins?"

"Oh my god, the difficulty in practicing rune formations in the past was that the basic runes had to be drawn on ninth-grade exotic animal leather. If we could make paper like this, wouldn't there be no restrictions?"

"If we sell this to Diqiu, we will get rich. Hehe, those profiteers selling exotic animal skin scrolls at the gate of Taixue will cry in the toilet this time."

Seeing that hundreds of military mages were even more interested in paper, Qing Yi felt extremely helpless and had to hold a product launch meeting first.
