The reason why neither side had found the yimo mine was because of the five-foot pit dug during the survey.
Because this place was a spirit Qi depression, the spirit Qi seeped into the depths of the mountain, and the yimo mine was also condensed in the depths of the mountain. It would be strange if they could find it in a pit that was only five feet deep.
This mountain had great prospects!
Just as Xia qingchen was rejoicing, a stern voice rang out from the nearby mine. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to approach the mine. Violators will be killed without mercy!
He turned around and saw a group of soldiers patrolling the neighboring mine.
From afar, he saw Xia qingchen and Li Linlin acting sneakily near the mine, and he was on guard.
Li Lin glared at him and shouted,This mountain is within the territory of my cool realm, how can you manage it? If you want to stir up friction between the two armies, well take you on!
As expected of a general who had once commanded an Army of 100000, his words were powerful and extraordinary.
The patrol team felt guilty. After confirming that Xia qingchens group hadnt invaded the mine, they retreated.
Li linye was still angry. Ill drive out all the intruders in the zhongyun realm sooner or later! he said.
As a soldier, the most difficult thing to tolerate was the occupation of the mountains and rivers.
Xia qingchen patted him on the shoulder and spoke with a deep meaning in his words, Dont worry, that day isnt far away.
The two of them returned to the military camp after a simple survey.
Just then, Alliance master Ouyangs appraisal results were out. Her old face was full of surprise.Its the real yimo ore! Its hard to believe that a Yi mo ore has been discovered in a small mine!
Zhou bendao laughed and clapped his hands, Its a great thing!
Ill immediately ask the military Palace to start mining. The more yimo ore we excavate, the less we lose, Alliance master Ouyang said impatiently.
Hold on! Zhou bendaos smile disappeared, and he looked around vigilantly, Alliance master Ouyang, please keep a low profile.
His gaze pa.s.sed through the tent and looked at the mine. He said, only the three of us know about the yimo mine. Its not appropriate to tell others. Otherwise, if zhongyun territory knows about it, theyll definitely send an Army to occupy the last corner.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yan was stunned.
Thats right, he had almost forgotten about the Army stationed here in the zhongyun territory.
If they knew that there was a yimo mine in that corner, they would definitely send an Army.
to tell you the truth, the zhongyun territory already knows about the discovery of the yimo ore there. They have been restless recently. They will immediately launch a military war when we confirm that it is the real yimo ore. Zhou bendao said slowly.
Ouyang Yans expression turned serious. She was only a spirit master and didnt dare to make her own decisions on military matters. She said, Lord Zhou, what do you plan to do?
Zhou bendao muttered, I think we should slow down our operation. The zhongyun territory has been watching us. As soon as we start mining, they will know that the appraisal is true. They will immediately send troops to occupy it.
so, we can only take it slow. We should send a few people to investigate and excavate quietly. We shouldnt trigger the Army of zhongyun territory to take military action.
Alright, well send a few people to investigate and excavate, Ouyang Yan agreed.
She glanced at Xia qingchen, who was calmly drinking his tea, and said, Do you want to come along?
Xia qingchen shook his head. Ive already surveyed the area. Theres no need to go there again.
Hearing this, Ouyang Yan was happy to be free. She immediately led two experts from the weapon Alliance to investigate and prepare for the excavation.
Only Xia qingchen and Zhou bendao were left in the tent.
The latter looked out of the curtain and said indifferently, Xia Qian, you have completed your escort and appraisal mission. I will a.s.sign you a new mission.
Zhou bendao mumbled to himself, not even looking at Xia qingchen in the eye.
There are two messengers from the zhongyun territory coming tomorrow. Go and receive them. He ordered.
However, Xia qingchen sat there calmly and didnt have any intention to reply.
Zhou bendao frowned and turned around, Youre deaf?
Only then did Xia qingchen gently put down his teacup and said, the misty battle group is a semi-independent battle group. They only take orders from general Zhao Fei e. Therefore, Im sorry that Im not following your orders!
Who was he? he wasnt even Wan Xiaoqi of the Northwest Legion. Where did he get the qualifications to order Xia qingchen around?
Zhou bendao snorted,Xia Qianli, you better know your place! Ive already been particularly lenient to you on account of your appointment as the commander, yet youve gone against me again and again!
Xia qingchen stood up unhurriedly and said, So?
So? thats why I havent asked you yet, Zhou bendao shouted. why dont you kneel before me? youre just a small thousand-man cavalry!
Due to the appointment, he did not force it.
But now that the mission was completed, Xia qingchen still dared to be so arrogant, not putting him in his eyes.
its just like what Ive said, Xia qingchen said calmly. you dont have the qualifications!
The yunlan Legion was only under the jurisdiction of the Northwest Legions general. Wan Xiaoqi did not need to pay respects to any of the Northwest Legions generals.
Zhou bendao was just a Wan Xiaoqi from the external Army. He didnt have the qualifications to make Xia qingchen kneel before him.
Xia qianqi, youre being impudent! Zhou bendao squinted his eyes and said, This is not a military camp, but a mine. I am the highest commander of the local city protection Legion!
any thousand cricket cavalry that comes here must listen to my orders. You are no exception!
Xia qingchen slowly stood up, his expression tranquil. Zhou bendao, I advise you not to work too hard for the Yu family. You really cant afford to offend me!
It went without saying why Zhou bendao treated Xia qingchen so badly.
He, who was far away from the military camp, should have heard the news of Xia qingchen and the Yu clans enmity.
Zhou bendao laughed coldly,so what if I sell my life? Youre just a small thousand cricket, what can you do?
With a wave of his hand, he smashed the teacup that Xia qingchen had just drunk on the table to the ground.
Hualala-
The guards outside the tent immediately entered with their sabers when they heard the commotion.
Lord Zhou! The guards stared at the scene and asked for instructions.
Zhou bendaos expression was gloomy. He placed his hands behind his back and lifted his chin slightly, staring at Xia qingchen in an arrogant manner. Ill ask you one more time, are you going to kneel or not?
If he didnt kneel, he would be offending his superior!
Zhou bendao had the right to punish Xia qingchen. Although he might not dare to punish Xia qingchen severely, it wouldnt be too easy for him to humiliate him.
Xia qingchen smiled maliciously and shook his head. He then turned and walked out of the tent.
Zhou bendaos gloomy face finally turned cold. He waved his hand and shouted, Qian Ren rode on Xia qingchen, ignoring the military rules and offending his superior. He shall be whipped 1000 times to show the might of the Army!
Those who came in were all Zhou bendaos trusted men, so they naturally followed his orders and immediately pounced over like Tigers and wolves.
Xia qingchen squatted down and sighed. Cant you just be a good Wan Xiaoqi? Why do you have to humiliate yourself?
Even the Yu family couldnt do anything to Xia qingchen. As Xia qingchens superior, Yu guitian still had to keep a distance from him.
Where did Zhou bendao get the courage to deal with him?
However, since he was determined to make things difficult for her, he must have been mentally prepared!
