This time the army returned in triumph, and together with Ye Feng and the eldest prince Buglin who had made great military exploits, even the Dune Emperor personally came out of the imperial city to greet them.
The welcoming scene was very grand. Almost all the civil and military officials of the Sand Dune Empire arrived and stood in two rows. The 100,000-strong army marched into the city under the watchful eyes of the civil and military officials.
The soldiers held their chests high. At this moment, they undoubtedly felt that their faces were filled with glory, and they felt that the hardships they had experienced on the battlefield had become worthwhile.
After the army entered the inner city, they went to various camps and campuses according to their duties. Since Ye Feng did not have his own mansion, more than 5,000 Qingfeng troops could only temporarily live in the camp of the eldest prince Buglin. Later, Ye Feng and Hong
Qing Yan and others returned to the eldest prince's mansion and waited for the summons from the Dune Emperor tomorrow.
Looking at the backs of Ye Feng and others from a distance, General Nikostev remained calm and silent.
A confidant general next to him sent a message: "General, now that the human boy named Ye and the eldest prince have returned safely, it seems that we have to make preparations early. It is said that the five ninth-level deities sent out were
The Emperor has now fallen into the hands of that human boy named Ye."
Nikostev nodded thoughtfully and said: "We should have made preparations in advance and asked the direct descendants of the family to evacuate overnight, instead of evacuating now just in case."
"What about you, General?" the confidant general asked.
"Me? I have been in the army for thousands of years, and have been working hard for the Dune Empire for most of my life. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. It is impossible for me to leave. I want to see if your Majesty will side with that human boy this time, or will you choose to continue?
Protect me!"
When Nikostev said this, he sneered again, and then said: "Of course, even if the eldest prince Buglin really wants to touch me, he has to weigh whether he has enough weight. As long as His Majesty the Emperor has not made up his mind.
If you touch me, I have nothing to worry about, not to mention I have a noble concubine to support you."
"Get ready to go down. I will go to court tomorrow. I want to see what tricks those two guys can do!" General Nikostev snorted, then turned around and headed back to his mansion.
There was no celebration banquet held at the eldest prince's residence today, after all, the official reward had not been issued yet, not to mention that the eldest prince Buglin had to attend to a big event tomorrow morning.
Ye Feng didn't ask any more questions. After confirming that the five masked ninth-level emperors had arrived at the eldest prince's mansion under the secret escort of Bruboming and other powerful men, he knew that the eldest prince was determined this time.
I'm going to touch that old man Nikostev.
After all, the 100,000 elite troops of the eldest prince Buglin were killed by the Demon Horns under the eyes of the general Nikostev, but Nikostev, an old man, remained unmoved.
One can only imagine how angry Buglin was this time.
At this moment, Ye Feng is actually concerned about the reward issue that will follow. In this battle, he is undoubtedly the one who deserves the most credit. It can even be said that he determined the success or failure of this battle in one fell swoop. Nine out of ten points of the credit go to him.
For such a huge achievement, the Dune Empire will definitely receive many rewards.
"Originally, I planned to attack the land of Mixed Wheel that the barbarians ignored, capture that place, and then give the human army a place to stay, but now..."
Ye Feng came here first and shook his head slightly, rejecting the original idea because it was unrealistic and very difficult.
It was only as he continued to get to know the Liman tribe that Ye Feng realized that although the Hunlun place where the Liman tribe gathered casual cultivators was nominally a three-nothing zone and did not fall under the jurisdiction of the three major empires, in fact, the Hunlun land
The earth has close ties with the three great empires.
These three places lack nominal jurisdiction, and they are mostly populated by those who are extremely vicious and powerful in the major empires. Because there is no control, many places in the mixed wheel are engaged in gray or even black profit-making industries, and these industries are often
It has close ties with the three major empires and even the three major inherited families.
So this will undoubtedly affect the whole body. If this land of mixed wheels is leveled, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to touching the cake of all the major forces!
"Although it cannot be occupied, the attack is necessary. First of all, it is revenge. The casual cultivators in this land of mixed wheels have tried to ambush me many times. If they don't take revenge, they think I am a soft persimmon easy to bully. Moreover, there are many treasures in the land of mixed wheels.
, no matter what, you will get a share of the pie, as for the issue of the stationing of the human army..."
Thinking of this, Ye Feng pondered again, looking at the magic map of the small thousand world suspended in front of him in trance.
Seeing this, Hong Qingyan in the room couldn't help but ask: "Brother Ye, what are you thinking about?"
Only then did Ye Feng come back to his senses and said with a smile: "I was thinking about where we should choose a more suitable place to station ourselves when our human army comes in. This must be done carefully. After all, this may be related to the future of our human race.
A territory where you can survive in the magical world."
"Didn't we make plans before to attack the Land of Mixed Wheels? That place is a place that no one cares about. Isn't it suitable for our future human life?" Hong Qingyan asked.
"That place is not suitable." Ye Feng shook his head, then pointed to the Sangui area on the map and explained: "Look at this place, although it is a Sangui zone, it is connected to the three empires. In other words, it is in a
In the circle surrounded by the three empires, the oval-shaped terrain is relatively low. If we human beings live in this place in the future, it will be equivalent to being trapped by the three empires. It will be difficult to get out and develop. Moreover, this place is also
A little too small.”
Hong Qingyan couldn't help but ask: "Since these three areas are not suitable, then where else can we choose? I'm afraid the Sand Dune Empire will not allow it in other areas."
Ye Feng smiled and said: "Qingyanqin, do you know why the Liman Clan and the Demon Horn Clan have been in constant dispute for millions of years? What is the root cause of this?"
"Why?" Hong Qingyan was stunned. She had never thought about this question.
"Because there are only these two major races in this magical world. If our human race comes in to form a tripartite situation, then the three major races will restrain each other, and the original dispute situation will change." Ye Feng said.
Hong Qingyan frowned and said: "Even if you are right, neither the Demon Horn Clan nor the Liman Clan will allow our Human Realm tribe to come in on a large scale, let alone the Demon Horn Clan. Even if
Even the Sand Dune Empire may not agree to it then."
"No, the Dune Empire will definitely agree. I have a way to make the Dune Emperor agree!" Ye Feng said with a smile.
"Brother Ye has a way, what can he do?" Hong Qingyan couldn't help but ask.
Ye Feng turned his gaze to the east of the Sand Dune Empire and said immediately: "This time, the four kingdoms of the Demon Horn Clan attacked the Sand Dune Empire and almost put the Sand Dune Empire in danger of annihilation. The big reason for this is because of the shape of the Dune Empire's territory.
It runs east-west and borders several major Demon Horn empires, and the other two powerful barbarian empires are eager to destroy the Dune Empire and take the opportunity to carve it up, so the geographical location of the Dune Empire is actually very special and sensitive."
"That's true." Hong Qingyan nodded slightly.
Ye Feng continued: "This time I have made great military exploits, so I propose to increase the human army in the human realm to one hundred thousand. The Dune Emperor should not object. Furthermore, I will also propose that the Dune Empire lease the Sand Dune City.
us!"
"Let them lease Shatu City?" Hong Qingyan's eyes widened. At this time, she finally came to her senses and said: "Brother Ye, what you mean is to turn Shatu City into our base and let our human army
Stationed there? But with this condition, even if we have made great achievements in this war, the Dune Empire will probably not agree to it, right?"
"I will agree, because we are not renting it in vain. When the time comes, I will promise that once the Demon Horns attack the Dune Empire in the future, our human army stationed in Sand Dune City will dispatch support to help the Dune Empire fight."
When Ye Feng said this, he smiled and continued: "Although Shatu City is just a city that is not even a middle or lower level, in history, it was a more important fortress than the current Aqiu main city.
As long as we rent an even larger super main city and operate it well, I believe it won’t take long to build it into a super main city fortress that can accommodate tens of millions of people!”
Hong Qingyan nodded and said: "Shatu City now only has a small part of the main city left, but it is surrounded by vast plains. It is easy to build, but because it is a lease, if the Sand Dune Empire comes to see it,
What should we do if they want to take back the city we built?"
Ye Feng smiled and said: "That was already nine hundred and ninety-nine years later. If our human race in the human realm had not developed enough to fully integrate into the magical world at that time, then we might as well return to the human realm.
"
Hong Qingyan could only nodded, not knowing what to say for a while.
Ye Feng suddenly smiled again and said: "Actually, renting Shatu City is just my first goal. The second goal is to completely defeat the Demon Moon Empire, and the third long-term goal is to occupy the eastern part of the Demon Moon Empire."
This area includes
Including Tianren City, we will also capture parts of the Tianshui Empire and the Huomiao Empire to connect with the Shatu Empire. In this way, our human race will be able to establish an empire and truly connect with the Demon Horn Tribe and the Liman Tribe.
contend!"
"Brother Ye, you actually plan to conquer the eastern part of the Demon Moon Empire and some areas of the Tianshui Empire and Huomiao Empire to build a human empire. Isn't this difficult?" Hong Qingyan said with wide eyes.
"It is indeed difficult, but it must be done. As you know, there is a naturally formed space wormhole in the Tianren City where the Demon Moon Empire and the Huomiao Empire meet. As long as we build it slightly and stabilize it in the future, our people will
The Jingren tribe can freely travel between the two small thousand worlds without spending a lot of resources to build teleportation portals, so we must knock down the Tianren City area!"
When Ye Feng said this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "There is still a long way to go. If I want to accomplish these three goals, at least my cultivation level must be able to completely crush the Half-Step Emperor, and even be able to compete with the real
Only if they can compete with the great emperors, no matter whether it is the Demon Horn Clan or the Li Barbarian Clan, if any emperor refuses to accept it, then we will beat them until they do!"
Hong Qingyan smiled and nodded: "I believe in you, Brother Ye. I believe you can do it. This day will definitely come!"
At this moment, the steward from the eldest prince's residence suddenly came to knock on the door and said: "Commander Ye, His Highness, Gang Laonu, has come to send a message, saying that His Majesty the Emperor has summoned you and asked you to come over immediately."
"Summoned by His Majesty the Emperor?" Ye Feng was slightly startled. It was already dark, so summoning him at this time seemed to be a private meeting.
"Yes, Commander Ye, His Highness is already waiting for you in the front hall, please hurry up!" the old butler said again.
Ye Feng nodded and then pushed the door open. In fact, this was normal. After all, he had made such a great contribution this time. His Majesty the Emperor first summoned him privately in advance to ask about his needs. The two sides had almost agreed upon everything.
Then it will be promulgated in the court tomorrow.
If he is not summoned to have a discussion in advance at this time, it means that His Majesty the Emperor of Dune does not value him as a great hero.
After arriving at the front hall and meeting up with the eldest prince Buglin, both parties nodded and then secretly entered the palace.
Of course, it was impossible to hide this secret from General Nikustev. After all, in the palace, the general had the concubine as his spy. But as for the subsequent conversation between the two parties, General Nikustev
It's unknown, and of course even the imperial concubine can't find out.
Under the leadership of the palace guards, Ye Feng and the eldest prince Buglin went straight to the upper study room. The Dune Emperor was sitting on the chair, and there was no one else. Of course, under Ye Feng's tyrannical spirit,
Under the power perception, I can still sense that there are strong auras around the upper study room.
In this imperial city, there are dozens of ninth-level emperors alone, and there are also several quasi-emperors who are half-step to the secret palace realm. This is where the strength and heritage of an empire lies!
Ye Feng knew that he still had a lot of gaps. If he could compete with the empire on his own, there would still be at least a long way to go!
"There are no other outsiders here, so let's just talk about it. There are two issues. One is Ye Feng. You have made great achievements this time. Although you are not our barbarian tribe, you are also the leader of our Dune Empire.
If you have merit, you will be rewarded. Just tell me what you want."
The King of Dune sat in a chair with great dignity. He went straight to the point without any nonsense.
Ye Feng thought for a while and then said: "Since His Majesty the Emperor is so cheerful, I won't hide it anymore. I made a bet with the eldest prince before and he promised me to raise an army of 20,000 human beings to enter the magical world. Now,
I plan to increase this word count to 100,000."
"Increasing to 100,000 requires reinforcing and expanding the teleportation portal. However, this is not a big problem. Compared with the achievements you have made this time, it is accurate!"
The Emperor of Sand Dune agreed immediately, and then said: "Apart from this, what other rewards do you want?"
Ye Feng said again: "In addition, I would like to ask His Majesty the Emperor to lease Shatu City to me for a period of nine hundred and ninety-nine years." ωωw..net
"Lease Shatu City to you?" The Emperor of Sand Dune frowned, and then said: "Do you want to use this place as a base to station your Human Realm army there?"
"Exactly!" Ye Feng did not deny it.
The Emperor of Sand Dune pondered, apparently thinking, and then said after a while: "Let's do this. I will make you General Dongping, and you will also be in charge of Shatu City. In addition, I will also allow your army of 100,000 people to be stationed there. What do you think?
"
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I only want to rent it, and don't want to be granted a title."
When Ye Feng said this, he quickly added an explanation: "Your Majesty should know that since I proposed to lease Shatu City and use the geographical situation of Shatu City, I will inevitably have frequent conflicts with Tianshui Empire and Huomiao Empire, and even I will
Lead the human race in the human realm to attack several major empires of the Demon Horn Clan."
When the Dune Emperor heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "You guys, it seems that your ambition and courage are not small. The human army of a mere hundred thousand people actually wants to attack several major empires of the Demon Horn Clan!"
Ye Feng did not laugh, he still said seriously: "Your Majesty, if I bear the title of General Dongping of the Dune Empire, it will definitely intensify the conflicts with the Dune Empire and the major Demon Horn Empires, and maybe it will happen again.
Therefore, I provoked a war, so I feel that for the sake of your country, it would be safer not to be sealed."
The Emperor of Sand Dune raised his eyebrows, obviously he didn't want to rent out Sand Dune City yet.
Ye Feng continued: "In addition, Your Majesty, if I rent the Sand Dune City and the Sand Dune Empire is attacked by the Demon Horn Clan in the future, our human army from the human realm must send troops to assist. This point can be written in the Tiandao Agreement.
Your Majesty, the Emperor, should have no doubt about the ability of our soldiers to fight. This will be nothing but a huge gain for your country."
The Emperor of Sand Dune was obviously moved, and after thinking for a while, he said: "It's okay to rent Shatu City to you, or even directly reward it to you as your private territory, but I have one condition.
If you don’t agree to this condition, you won’t be able to negotiate, including the 100,000-person realm army.”
"What are the conditions? Your Majesty, please tell me." Ye Feng said.
"The condition is that in the future, if you and your human race become stronger, you will never attack or invade our Sand Dune Empire. When our Sand Dune Empire is in trouble, you must send troops to assist. Both parties must sign a heavenly agreement, in the name of the two races.
Sign an agreement for generations to come." The Dune Emperor said in sonorous words.
Ye Feng knew that this should be the other party's limit, but this request did not go against Ye Feng's future goals and intentions. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "No problem, I agree to your Majesty's condition, and we can work both ways."
Sign the Heavenly Agreement in the name of the clan."
"Okay, let's move on to the second topic." The Dune Emperor said, turning to look at the eldest prince Buglin and saying: "Tell me, how do you plan to deal with General Nikostev next?"
