My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 186 Ming Ranger
Xu Youbang explained.

Although almost all the nobles of the Ming Dynasty were lost in the battle of Tumubao, many adult men of the family were killed in the battle, and the family inheritance was directly cut off.

But families that have inherited titles since the founding of the People's Republic of China still have some of these sacrificial vessels in stock.

This is also the force they rely on to maintain their status.

"Okay, it's time to talk about business."

Xu Youbang turned his attention to the woman beside him.

"Now tell me what's going on -"

……

Looking at the secret report submitted by Yu Dayou and others overnight, Zhu Houcong said to Li Changshou beside him who had just received the initial blessing of the Holy Grail.

"Ask the woman outside the door to come in and see me——"

Li Changshou knelt down and looked at the brand new armor of the Qianhu Army of the Beijing Army on his body, as if he was living in a dream.

"As ordered—"

Watching Li Changshou walk out, in addition to thinking about the future positions of these Holy Grail Knights in the Ming Court, Zhu Houcong was also considering the news in the letter.

According to Yu Dayou and others, the entire Northern Defense Force team in this operation was almost wiped out. The ones who caused the greatest damage were not the conquered sharks, but a giant insect-like creature with the ability to control people's hearts.

They came and went freely in the soil, but were extremely afraid of water. It was initially suspected that the snake demon in the underground altar was injured by these insects, but in the end, I don’t know why those giant insects did not take away all the Xiao. The children of the family.

The northern defense soldiers were controlled by these demonic insects without knowing it, and they killed each other because of a small squabble over the distribution of spoils.

In the end, Zhu Xiangyang, the clan member, managed to survive by relying on a psychic gun with only two bullets left by Yu Dayou, the imperial guard.

Afterwards, Yu Dayou, Xu Youbang and others introduced in detail the strange sacrifices they encountered underground.

Zhu Houcong's attention was attracted by Xiao Yuniang's overheard talk about "Jinling treasures", "quarrying" and "rituals" from the shark priests.

It seems that if you want to obtain the treasures of Jinling, you have to hold some kind of ceremony in Caishi and Jinling.

The Ming army currently led by Zhu Houcong happened to be stationed in Caishi. Thinking of the letters from Nanjing, perhaps the real purpose of those things was not to prevent Zhu Houcong from entering Nanjing, but to allow Zhu Houcong to still lead the Ming army before he could figure out the situation. The army was stationed at Quarry.

interesting--

Zhu Houcong thought.

A young girl pushed open the door and entered in front of her. Her behavior was no different from that of an ordinary wealthy businesswoman. When she learned that the person in front of her was the emperor of the dynasty, she knelt down to show her submission.

But when she was waiting with expectation and anxiety for the emperor's question, she heard the emperor's voice above her.

"I already know about this, please take Miss Xiao down?"

Wait, Your Majesty, what do you know? I haven't said anything yet?

But before she could react, Li Changshou beside her motioned to the guards to take her out of the house.

This woman's bloodline is indeed a bit strange, she must be from a famous family.

"I'm used to being in the military these days."

Hearing the emperor's question, Li Changshou didn't know what it meant and answered carefully.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, the soldiers also treat me very well. There is nothing I am not used to."

"Okay - but I know that you have a deep hatred and cannot live here for long, so I want to make you a guerrilla general, patrol the world for me, hone your martial arts, and wait for the court to summon you - you are willing."

No, Your Majesty, your turn is a bit too blunt.Isn't it a normal plot that you should be overjoyed to hear that I'm so sensible? You'd be promoted to a higher rank and given me a princess, and you'd order the government to help me track down...

What kind of plot is this that makes me fend for myself now?

Although Li Changshou cursed in his heart, on the surface he could only smile bitterly and kowtow to thank the emperor in front of him who obviously had other plans for him.

"Thank you for the emperor's grace. My father was killed at sea. I am always thinking about how to take revenge. Before leaving, my mother even told me that if I don't kill the monster that killed my father, how can I return home with dignity——"

"it is good!"

Zhu Houcong felt that God was coming to fulfill him.

Although they can't afford to support these precious Holy Grail Knights - oh no, now they have to call them Guerrilla Generals of the Ming Dynasty and Ranger Knights - but what if their own families can support their growth expenses.

With the emperor's mandate, he traveled around the world, honing his martial arts, increasing his knowledge, relieving the poor, and slaying demons.

And the most important thing is that Zhu Houcong doesn't have to spend money to pay their wages.

He is just a guerrilla general in name only, and there are as many Zhu Houcong here as he wants.

Moreover, Zhu Houcong has decided to try his best to select these people from military households and nobles. Once there is a war, they can be recalled to the army at any time to work for Zhu Houcong as the main force in the battle - I mean to defend our Chinese orthodoxy. , to dedicate one's strength to the great cause of clearing the world, cleaning up the wastelands, and civilizing the barbarians.

"You can come here first. There is a local censor named Liu Yuanqing who can provide you with a guarantee. Instead, you can start investigating the incident of Haiyan being invaded by Japanese pirates last year. After the incident is completed, the court will reward you."

Although Zhu Houcong did not intend to pay wages to these Ming knights, it was not completely free of charge.

At least those who do things will definitely get more rewards than those who don't.

Although these big Ming court officials don't care much about this.

But Zhu Houcong still has to consider how the rangers with ordinary families will live when the scale of the knights errant expands in the future.

"I have ordered the Jinyi guards to prepare their horses and pack their things. You can leave as soon as possible."

After Zhu Houcong finished speaking, he opened the window and looked at the river flowing eastward and the dark clouds gathering in the sky with a solemn expression.

After all, after today, I'm afraid this place won't be as peaceful as it is now.

No matter who wants to leave, it will be extremely difficult.

Zhu Houcong looked at the slowly rising river water in front of him. Not far away, Zhu Changning, who was sitting on the river bank with his guardsmen to fish, suddenly stood up in surprise.

He watched as the fishing rod in his hand was bent ninety degrees by the giant thing in the river.

Zhu Changning's face was filled with ecstasy!
MD!I see who dares to talk about our Air Force today!

The giant thing in the ground obviously wanted to escape, but Zhu Changning, who had been bullied by fish and shrimps for three consecutive days without loading the goods, could not let it go. The two began to wrestle by the river.

Little thief!I ate my aunt’s food and still want to leave!

Feeling the struggle of the thing in the river, Zhu Changning was secretly surprised.

The size of this thing is really amazing. If it were an ordinary person, ordinary fishing gear would have to let you run away.

However, this fishing rod was made from leftover materials I picked up from my father's weapon refining room before I experienced this. Even if you have tens of thousands of pounds of strength, you will never be able to break free.

Zhu Changning could already feel that as time went by, the strength of the thing in the river's struggle was gradually weakening.

Victory is waving to Zhu Changning.

Zhu Changning was already imagining how he would carry today's big cargo from quarrying all the way to Jinling, and how he would pose to welcome everyone's admiration!
　I've been busy helping my relatives move all afternoon, and I'm tired. I took a nap and woke up and coded a chapter - I'm too sleepy now. I'll continue tomorrow. The author is going to bed. Good night, gentlemen, and go to bed early.
