Chapter 195: Disagreements From Storm Territory (1/2)

"Everyone is here, tell me how our team is doing now."

In the meeting hall of the military camp, Kong Tianyang sat in the main seat and said to Li Yan and Yuwen Kui below.

Yuwen Kui stepped forward and started to report first.

Li Yan glanced at him, didn't say much, and listened quietly to his report.

Speaking of which, the relationship between the two was relatively harmonious before the first attack on Storm Territory.

It was not until the Storm Territory was conquered that the two had differences of opinion, and then the differences became bigger and bigger.

To this day, except for pretending in front of Kong Tianyang, the two ignored each other at other times.

And the subordinates of both sides also became confrontational because of the unharmonious relationship between their respective bosses.

When attacking Storm Territory, Li Yan was responsible for sneaking into Storm Territory and delivering the information of Storm Seven Swords.

Yuwen Kui led all the innate warriors under Kong Tianyang at that time to ambush around Storm Territory.

As long as Li Yan sends a signal, Yuwen Kui will lead people to the designated location and quickly kill the enemy.

In the entire operation, the two most important people are undoubtedly Li Yan and Yuwen Kui.

This is also a test given to the two by Kong Tianyang.

Whoever performs well will serve as a five-hundred-man captain, lead five hundred-man teams, and establish his own personal guard.

A thousand-man regiment generally has one thousand-man captain, two five-hundred-man captains, and eight centurions.

In Kong Tianyang's thousand-man regiment, in addition to Kong Tianyang, the strongest is Mu Yingmei, with a mid-stage innate strength, which can be said to be directly reserved for the position of five-hundred-man captain.

After all, strength is respected in the army.

In addition, she has a good relationship with Kong Tianyang, and she has been playing with her brother and Kong Tianyang since she was a child.

No one will have any objection to taking a position of a five-hundred-man captain.

Therefore, what Li Yan and Yuwen Kui want to compete for is the position of another five-hundred-man captain.

No one knows how Li Yan sneaked into the Storm Territory without being discovered by the people inside.

Everyone only knew that the news from Li Yan was very accurate. Within five days, the people guarding outside the Storm Territory killed three of the Storm Seven Swordsmen and dozens of Storm Bandits.

Such frequent attacks naturally alerted the Storm Territory.

However, just when they wanted to withdraw their manpower, defend themselves, and even leave the Storm Territory, Kong Tianyang led a group of people to attack the territory.

The news was naturally leaked by Li Yan, and the people were also let in by Li Yan in the middle of the night.

There were only four swords left of the Storm Seven Swordsmen. Although the Storm Sword Formation could still be used, its power was greatly reduced.

When the incomplete version of the Storm Sword Formation was displayed, Mu Yingmei rushed up first.

The sword formation that was originally able to deal with the late-stage innate warriors was only slightly superior to Mu Yingmei, a warrior who had just advanced to the middle-stage innate.

As time went on, Mu Yingmei's true energy was greatly consumed in the later stages of the battle, and sweat almost couldn't be restrained from coming out of his pores.

However, he still refused the requests of others to join the battle and still stubbornly insisted on fighting.

In the end, Mu Yingmei won the final victory with her persistence, the advantages of spiritual weapons and the use of powerful spiritual skills.

At the moment of victory, Mu Yingmei almost fell to the ground, but the physical fatigue did not hinder the satisfied smile on her face.

At this time, her warlike character was undoubtedly revealed.

The leaders of the Storm Territory all bowed their heads, and the entire Storm Territory officially changed hands.

Except for a few people who escaped, all others were captured by Li Yan and others.

They were tied with ropes specially used to trap warriors. Next to every two or three people, there was a bandit controlled by the [Five Poison Pill].

Li Yan and others were still very relieved about these bandits who had eaten the [Five Poison Pill].

And they did not live up to the trust of Li Yan and others. They did a good job. Not only did they prevent several people from escaping, but they also verbally rejected bribes from more than a dozen people.

Many people had smiles on their faces and looked at their colleagues kneeling beside them.

The gloating in the smile was almost undisguised.

After everyone was controlled, Kong Tianyang began to send people to search for wealth in the Storm Territory.

More than a hundred miles away from the Storm Territory, there is a trade route that must be passed. The existence of this trade route is not only the main economic source of the Storm Territory, but also one of the important economic sources of the Black Wind Village and the Evil Tiger Nest.

These bandits will not place their nests in the deep mountains and old forests. That is safe, but it cannot develop, and it is easy to starve to death.

Only those important places on the trade route are the first choice for these bandits to place their nests.

Although the competition is fierce, if you are not careful, you will either be attacked by your peers or purged by the government, but the money is really fast.

The reason why Kong Tianyang set his target on these bandits is that their accumulated ill-gotten gains are also one of his targets.

Afterwards, after everyone turned over the entire Storm Territory, they finally found the hidden treasure house.

There are many things in the treasure house, but everyone did not count them, so they reported them to Kong Tianyang.

Regarding such a considerable amount of wealth, only Kong Tianyang can be responsible for the work of presiding over the inventory.

Kong Tianyang, who had rushed over, smiled with satisfaction after seeing the gold and silver in the treasure house.

These yellow and white things were not of much help to his cultivation, but they were indispensable for his team development.

Besides, this treasure house was not small, and the good things might be hidden deeper inside.

This kind of treasure-hunting excitement made Kong Tianyang rub his palms, and then he began to order his men to count the wealth in the treasury.

He also participated in it with great interest.

At this time, Yuwen Kui and others were with Kong Tianyang, helping him to count the treasury.

Li Yan naturally added a poisoning debuff to the newly recruited bandits.

However, just when Li Yan was training the four Storm Territory lords, Kong Tianyang sent someone to ask him to bring the four swords to see him.

When Li Yan heard this, his eyes flashed, and he knew that the treasure house was exposed.

The location of the treasure house was already known to him on the first day he sneaked into the Storm Territory.

In the following days, he moved away 80% of the things in the treasury that were useful to him.

Soon, Li Yan brought the four swords to Kong Tianyang.

Kong Tianyang's face was a little unfriendly because he did not get a satisfactory harvest.

Therefore, as soon as the four swords appeared in front of him, he was severely questioned.

Kong Tianyang guessed that the most valuable and precious things in the treasure house must have been hidden by them.

He now wanted to get the whereabouts of the hidden treasures from the four swords.

Unexpectedly, his stern appearance not only did not get any useful information, but was mocked by the four swords.

They shouted that even if they buried those things forever, they would not hand them over to their enemies.

This directly angered Kong Tianyang, and he directly ordered Li Yan to activate the poison effect of [Erosion Pill].

Poor four swords, they had just been tortured by Li Yan, and now they had to do it again.

This time, the four swords could not even hold on for a cup of tea, and they kept begging for mercy.

The previous arrogant momentum suddenly turned into clouds and disappeared without a trace.

At this point, not only Kong Tianyang, but everyone except Li Yan was thinking that they should confess this time.

Unfortunately, although the four swords confessed, it was equivalent to not doing anything.

Because the person who hid those things was the second leader of Storm Territory, who had long been killed by Yuwen Kui and his men.

So far, the clues about the whereabouts of the treasures have come to an end.

Li Yan, who was silently watching these scenes, felt a little proud in his heart.

The second leader was actually Li Yan in disguise.

The real second leader of Storm Territory had long been killed by Li Yan.

So, the second leader killed by Yuwen Kui and his men was not the real one, but Li Yan in disguise.

After they left, Li Yan, who had a big hole in his chest, half of his head missing, and his limbs broken, recovered, replaced a bandit, and returned to Storm Territory.

Kong Tianyang, who accidentally lost a batch of treasures, naturally had a gloomy face.

Only those who have experienced the feeling of a cooked duck flying away when it is at their mouth can understand the frustration and anger in it.

But he is now a thousand-man leader, and as the leader of the crowd, he can't show too much even if he is angry.

Therefore, after taking a deep breath, he suppressed the negative emotions that kept rising and began to discuss with others whether to include the four swords in their team.

After a while of discussion, two camps emerged, represented by Li Yan, the four swords protection faction, and Yu Wenkui, the four swords killing faction.

Li Yan's reason was that innate warriors were rare, and now was the beginning of the development of the team, and with these four swords, the team could develop faster.

Moreover, his [Erosion Pill] controlled the four swords, and he would definitely not let these people stir up any waves and be their dogs.

The reason was very sufficient, and it was for the sake of the whole, which sounded reasonable, so there were many people who supported it.

In fact, Li Yan didn't care whether the four swords lived or died. The reason why he wanted to keep the four swords was also out of caution.

Just like the reason given by Li Yan, he had no reason to want the four swords to die, and the death of the four swords would not benefit him at all.

On the contrary, as the person who controlled the lives of the four swords, after the four swords joined the team, he, as the actual controller of the four swords, would definitely benefit him a lot.

At this time, he wanted the four swords to die. Maybe everyone didn't think much of it now, but after they went back, they might feel that something was wrong.

Because if the four swords died, from a realistic point of view, there would be no benefit to Li Yan, so why would Li Yan do such a thing without benefit?

At this time, if someone diverged and speculated what benefits the death of the four swords could bring to Li Yan.

Maybe someone with a big brain would connect the missing treasures with Li Yan who sneaked into the Storm Territory.

After all, the second leader mentioned by the four swords did the treasure transfer after Li Yan sneaked into the Storm Territory.

This is the biggest flaw of Li Yan in this matter.

As long as someone noticed this, Li Yan would become the number one suspect.

Don't try to use the excuse of coincidence to prevaricate. Everyone is not a fool. There is no such a coincidence.

As for how Li Yan became the second leader and how he deceived others, these are not important.

What is important is whether you are suspicious. As long as you are suspicious, people will automatically make up all kinds of possibilities.

Therefore, what Li Yan wanted to eliminate was other people's suspicion of him.

As for Yuwen Kui's reason for killing the four swords, it was for the sake of the whole team.

The relationship between the seven swords was very good, and they not only killed the other three swords, but also seized their territory and robbed them of the wealth they had accumulated for many years.

Even with [Erosion Pill], you can't rest assured with such hatred.

After all, there are people in history who are willing to die with their enemies even if they have to risk their lives.

Although Yuwen Kui's words are high-sounding, only Kong Ge is willing to stand on his side, and the difference is obvious.

Everyone's eyes are not blind. Just based on the behavior shown by the four swords before, few people believe that they are the kind of people who dare to risk their lives.

When Yuwen Kui saw this scene, the unwillingness and jealousy in his eyes almost burst out.

This big guy, although he is tall and big, his heart is not big.

The reason why he wants the four swords to die is not because of the reasons he said verbally, but because he doesn't want to see Li Yan control four more innate warriors.

The first innate warrior controlled by Li Yan was Chen Hao, who robbed them on the road.

Since Chen Hao was controlled by Li Yan, he is obviously more respectful and cautious towards Li Yan than others.

Just like when Li Yan and he walked side by side, after meeting Chen Hao, Chen Hao always greeted Li Yan respectfully first, and then greeted him.

Others may not feel anything, but Yuwen Kui felt a little unbalanced in his heart.

Why? They are both in the early stage of innateness and have the status of centurions. Why should you, Chen Hao, treat them differently?

Usually, these negative energies are suppressed in his heart, so no one knows his true thoughts.

Accumulated until now, it is a little bit uncontrollable.

This is the first time he has walked to the opposite side of Li Yan, and it is also the beginning of the disagreement between the two.

Comparing the two sides, although Li Yan's group has the upper hand in terms of numbers, Kong Tianyang did not make a decision immediately, but said that he would think about it again.

This attitude is a bit subtle, and Li Yan couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Then he was the first to leave.

When people think, they need a quiet environment. Kong Tianyang's words are equivalent to serving tea to see off guests. How can Li Yan not know the fun!

Others also reacted and said goodbye and left.

Yuwen Kui was the last to leave, and before he left, he said something to Kong Tianyang.

"Su Han seems to be very popular. I see many people are very respectful to him, but I am not as good as him."

After saying that, Yuwen Kui left, leaving Kong Tianyang, who was a little gloomy, sitting alone in his seat, looking at the erratic torch.

The next day, Kong Tianyang made a decision to kill the four swords, and Kong Ge would execute it.

Others did not dare to say anything openly, but they were secretly muttering in secret.

When Kong Tianyang made this decision, he also officially confirmed Li Yan's position as the captain of the five hundred.

Because, in the process of attacking the Storm Territory, Li Yan's important role is beyond doubt.

It was precisely because of Li Yan's accurate intelligence that everyone paid a very small price to capture the Storm Territory, whose strength should not be underestimated.

A few days after returning to the camp, Mu Yingmei, who was supposed to take the position of the captain of the five hundred after Li Yan, suddenly announced that she was not suitable for the position of the captain of the five hundred, and then recommended Yuwen Kui to take office.

Since then, the general framework of the military camp has been determined.

The biggest one is undoubtedly the only thousand-man captain Kong Tianyang. Below him are two five-hundred-man captains, Yuwen Kui and Li Yan.

Next are the centurions, Chen Hao, Mu Yingmei, Xiang Qinghong, Huang Feng, Baofeng, Baihu, Kong Ge, and Kong Ling.

Before joining, Huang Feng and Baofeng were the second and fifth in command of the Black Wind Village; Baihu was the third in command of the Evil Tiger Nest.

I heard that the title of Baihu was given by the big boss of the Evil Tiger Nest, which Baihu didn't like, but she didn't want to use her previous name, so she finally accepted the title of Baihu.

Kong Ling is a member of Kong Tianyang's clan. After the Kong family knew about Kong Tianyang's situation, they specially supported him.

The four centurions under Li Yan are Baofeng, Baihu, Mu Yingmei and Chen Hao; the four centurions under Yuwen Kui are Xiang Qinghong, Kong Ge, Kong Ling and Huang Feng.

This pattern was set at the beginning of the third month after coming to Huangsha Road, and it has been maintained to this day.

"Reporting to Lord Kong, of my five hundred-man teams, only two teams have completed the initial blood circulation and can complete the basic military formation. The other three teams are still some distance away."

"Please forgive me, sir. I have failed your expectations."

After saying that, Yuwen Kui half-knelt on the ground.

Kong Tianyang, who saw this scene, couldn't help but stand up and quickly helped Yuwen Kui up, saying: "In such a short time, you can achieve this result, which is beyond my expectation. What crime have you committed?"

"Not only is it not guilty, but it is also meritorious."

"I don't know which two hundred-man teams have completed the blood circulation and the initial formation of the military formation."

In this world, to see whether an army is a regular army, it depends on whether it can form a military formation.

The hundred-man team is the smallest unit that forms a military formation. The military formations above are built step by step based on the hundred-man team military formation.

As for the elite army, it depends on whether the military soul is condensed, which is a higher level existence than the military formation.

The prerequisite for forming a military formation is that the soldiers in the army must practice the same technique, and must achieve the overall interconnection of qi and blood, mobilize the neat qi and blood, and use this huge qi and blood to form qi and blood images that can be manifested.

These external qi and blood manifestations can be mobilized to protect the army or attack the enemy, which is very magical.

However, if the military formation is broken by someone, the soldiers in the entire military formation will be attacked by qi and blood, not only will they be injured, but they will also lose some qi and blood, thus suffering from qi and blood deficiency.

This is also one of the important reasons why soldiers who survived the battlefield by chance usually don't live long.

In response to Kong Tianyang's question, Yuwen Kui quickly replied: "It's the two centurions Kong Ge and Kong Ling. They are worthy of your clansmen and are very experienced in training soldiers. Therefore, the soldiers they trained are much stronger than the soldiers of other centurions."

Kong Tianyang was very pleased with Yuwen Kui's flattery. He patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement, and then began to draft rewards for the two.

After Kong Tianyang finished his work, it was Li Yan's turn to report.

"Report to Lord Kong, of the five centurions under my command, only one has completed the initial blood circulation, which is not as good as the five centurions of Yuwen."

"Please forgive me, Lord."

As soon as Li Yan bent down, he was supported by Kong Tianyang: "Su Han, your work is more arduous than Yuwen Kui. It is not easy to have a centurion who can achieve such a level under your command. How can I blame you?"

"Who is that person? I will also give him a reward."

In addition to managing the five centurions under his command, Li Yan's job is to be responsible for giving medicine to more than a thousand soldiers in the entire camp.

Whether it is [Five Poison Pills] or [Erosion Pills], there is a time limit for the onset. If the antidote is not obtained within the time limit, the poison will be dead.

Therefore, Li Yan has to give dozens of people the antidote every day.

He can't delegate it to others. This is a special rule of Kong Tianyang.

"Report to the Lord, that person is the White Tiger."

A quarter of an hour later, Li Yan and Yuwen Kui walked out together.

The two looked at each other, without saying anything, and walked in opposite directions.

On the way, Li Yan was thinking about the next step of this clone while walking.

He could feel that Kong Tianyang was obviously going to gradually exclude him from the core circle of the camp.

In the latest high-level meeting, he was not notified because he was afraid of disturbing him from distributing antidotes to the soldiers.

Obviously, this was a signal from Kong Tianyang.

So, Li Yan was thinking about how to use the various information about the Dayue Kingdom army obtained by the Dayue Kingdom clone to quickly make merit on the battlefield and then go out to work alone.

This was originally his previous plan, but now it seems that it has to be implemented early.

Suddenly, Li Yan paused, and then a trace of joy appeared on his face.

The main body is about to break through.
