Chapter 159 Great Qin
The game "Starting from the Border Army and Becoming a Martial Emperor" is full of classic quotes, so come and find resonance.
Name: Lu Yuan
Age: 20
[Cultivation Technique: Rank 6 Cultivation Technique "Heavenly Gang Blazing Sun Blade" (48914/50000 Entry Stance)]
[Sixth-Rank Cultivation Technique "Hun Yuan Xuan Gong" Divine Palace, (852/10000 Great Success)]

[Fifth-Rank Technique "Condensing Evil Heart-Shattering Fist"] (60921/50000 Entering Stance, Should I use 10,000 Proficiency Points to Break Through?)
Looking at the message above, a smile appeared on Lu Yuan's lips.
This Northern Expedition greatly increased his strength, so without further ado, he immediately chose to break through.
My insights into archery techniques burst forth from my mind.
A huge visualization appeared in his mind, showing a giant holding a bow, shooting down a large number of wild beasts. Its power was so great that it shook the world.
[Fifth-Rank Skill: Cloud-Shattering Arrow Technique (392/1000 Minor Success)]
Next, it was the arms. The muscles were twitching, and every cell seemed to have grown. The strength in the arms was much greater than before.
It seems that with just a gentle wave, a mountain peak could be shaken.
[Sixth-Rank Kung Fu Technique: Bone-Melting Meteor Fist] (921/1000 Minor Success)
Lu Yuan currently possesses a seventh-grade cultivation technique at his highest level, along with several sixth-grade techniques. This configuration is comparable to that of the powerful figures in the royal families.
If it continues to grow in the future, its strength will surely reach an even more terrifying level.
Two years from now, when facing the Great Yong, we shouldn't be as powerless as we were in the past.
According to his speculation, the crown prince's cultivation level was at the Divine Power Realm back then, and he didn't know if it had increased over the years.
"There are still many experts in the Great Yong Dynasty," Lu Yuan muttered to himself.
I glanced outside; it was already late at night.
Then, Lu Yuan rested.
In the following days, Xiao Hua clung to him every day, and Lu Yuan rarely got a break.
They would take each other out hunting from time to time.
This leisurely life did not end until half a month later, when the great general of the ancient barbarian tribe and the high priest of the living barbarian tribe arrived with a letter of surrender and a large army, kneeling down to surrender.
Xiao Gu officially took over the armies of both tribes and dispatched elite Northern Barbarians and Beast Riders to garrison the area.
A large number of officials also went to the areas they were taking over.
As a high-ranking official in the Northern Barbarians, Lu Yuan was also extremely busy.
But it was all worth it.
After this series of events was completed.
With the three barbarian tribes united, the situation was finally stabilized.
Lu Yuan and Xiao Hua accompanied Xiao Shi back to the Northern Barbarian Imperial City, and another month passed.
A lot has happened during this period.
But all of these are good things, and the development of Nancheng is becoming more stable.
With monthly revenue approaching 10 billion, half of it becomes taxes for the imperial court, while the rest goes into the Prince's residence.
Then there were the local warlords. After receiving the surrender of the two barbarian tribes, they all knew in their hearts that if they did not surrender, they would face certain death.
Therefore, after Xiao's return.
The generals of the twelve vassal states immediately led their families to the capital to pay their respects, displaying great deference.
He relinquished his military power, hoping only that the Xiao family would spare his and his family's lives.
However, as the empress of the Northern Barbarians, Empress Xiao was quite shrewd. She not only pardoned the twelve vassal states but also granted them mansions in the capital so that their families could live there.
The children of the household went directly to the academy to cultivate.
As for them, they went back to guard their respective areas.
However, their respective garrisons were switched.
After several months of reorganization, the Northern Barbarians were completely unified.
The Xiao family also officially announced to the world that the Northern Barbarians would be renamed the Great Qin, and the academy established by Lu Yuan would be named the Great Qin Academy, making him the first academy master.
At the same time, he was promoted to General of the Cavalry, commanding all the beast cavalry and tiger warriors in the land.
Currently, the Qin Dynasty's beast cavalry is divided into three parts: beast cavalry, wolf cavalry, and blood cavalry.
The total is 1.2 million.
This scale is quite large.
With the number of Tiger Warriors increasing to 100,000, Lu Yuan now wields immense power and influence.
However, no one dared to say anything.
After all, their achievements speak for themselves.
Moreover, his relationship with the Xiao family mother and daughter was known throughout the court.
His Majesty is clearly grooming Lu Yuan as his successor, and it is inevitable that the Crown Princess will marry him in the future.
The members of the royal family were very satisfied, not to mention the others.
On this day, Lu Yuan was chatting and drinking with Xiao Hua in the Prince's mansion while watching the enchanting dance of the maids below, quite enjoying himself.
Several months have passed since we returned to Qin, and the court has finally stabilized.
As the General of the Cavalry, he really deserves to enjoy himself.
However, just after he had drunk a glass of wine, he saw Wei Yong rush in.
As more and more teachers were trained within the academy.
Wei Yong was transferred back to the Prince's Mansion to liaise with Tianwang Village.
Now that the constraints of cultivation resources are gone, his cultivation level has reached the Innate Realm.
He was already quite talented, and after following Lu Yuan, he displayed a tenacity that others lacked.
Therefore, his cultivation level increased significantly.
As soon as he came in, Lu Yuan knew that something must have happened.
After glancing at Xiao Hua, he slowly said, "Wait here for a moment, I'll be right back."
After saying that, he headed out of the hall.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Hua couldn't help but purse his lips. He knew that Wei Yong had been in charge of investigating news from Dayong, and he assumed that it was a letter from Zhou Hongling.
That's why Lu Yuan didn't dare let himself know.
I didn't pay much attention to it.
As soon as they stepped out of the main hall, Lu Yuan looked at Wei Yong and asked, "What happened?"
"Yes, the Crown Prince of Dayong wants to meet with you, saying he has important matters to discuss," Wei Yong replied immediately.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, understanding that after the Northern Barbarians were unified and incorporated into the Great Qin, the Great Yong was now in a hurry.
That's why the Crown Prince of Dayong sought him out.
"Are you in a hurry?" Lu Yuan asked softly.
"It seems quite urgent. The news came two months ago, but you were busy with the unification of Qin at the time, so the matter was put on hold. Now they're urging us again," Wei Yong said hurriedly.
Lu Yuan nodded. It was already summer, and the Great Yong would be sending troops around next year.
If they're contacting me at this time, they must want to discuss attacking the Qin Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan's lips curled up. This was a good opportunity, so he said calmly, "Okay, I understand. Tell Wu Han that we'll set off tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Highness," Wei Yong replied and stepped back.
Lu Yuan then returned to the main hall.
As soon as I sat down, Xiao Hua's gaze fell upon me.
After noticing the interrogative look in her eyes, Lu Yuan chuckled and said, "I have to go to the buffer zone tomorrow; something happened with a friend."
Could you please tell my aunt for me?
"What friend? More like a confidante," Xiao Hua said, her tone tinged with bitterness.
However, after saying that, he nodded and said, "I will tell my mother when I get back today, but you must be careful. The buffer zone, although it is still called the buffer zone, has almost become the territory of Dayong."
Tianwangzhai has developed very rapidly.
According to our scouts, Dayong still wants to seize our grasslands. Their cavalry is not powerful enough, and they have been trying to plunder the wastelands of our Great Qin as a horse-breeding ground.
Although you and Tianwangzhai are friends, you are now on opposing sides.
Xiao Hua's voice was filled with worry.
They were afraid that Lu Yuan might be in danger.
After all, under normal circumstances, this is indeed something to pay attention to.
However, what she didn't know was that Tianwang Village actually belonged to Lu Yuan.
"Yes, I understand, don't worry," Lu Yuan said casually, leaning back in his chair.
At the same time, he raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Xiao Hua; it was just that this matter was too important.
It concerns the lives of Wu Han and the others; if he were to speak out, it would be irresponsible of his brothers.
Therefore, this secret must continue to be hidden.
It wasn't until the Great Yong Dynasty went to war with the Northern Barbarians that the world learned of this.
"Don't be so casual. I know you're capable, but Yuan-ge, do you know how worried I was about you during the last Northern Expedition? Not for yourself, but for me, for Mother, for Aunt, you have to take care of yourself." Xiao Hua's eyes reddened slightly as she said this.
Lu Yuan pulled her close and whispered, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Suddenly making such an intimate gesture, Xiao Hua's face instantly flushed red, her mind went blank, and all her resentment vanished in an instant.
After what seemed like an eternity, she finally sat up straight, straightened her clothes, and said, "I'm going back now. You're going out tomorrow, so get your things ready."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Lu Yuan smiled and shook his head.
After waving his hand to dismiss the maids,
After saying goodbye to my mother in the backyard and having a meal, I went to the backyard.
He then returned to his own courtyard.
[Seventh-grade cultivation technique "Primordial Golden Body" (30035/30000 perfect, should I break through?)]
[Sixth-Rank Kung Fu Technique "Bone-Melting Meteor Fist"] (1201/1000 Minor Success, Breakthrough?)
Although Lu Yuan had been very busy since returning from the border, he was on the verge of breaking through in both of these cultivation techniques.
Therefore, although he did not spend too much time cultivating, he still met the requirements for a breakthrough today.
Lu Yuan did not hesitate and immediately chose to break through.
Then, a golden glow emanated from her body, and every cell seemed to be undergoing a transformation.
It is more powerful than before, and its defense is stronger.
[Seventh-Rank Cultivation Technique: Primordial Golden Body (35/30000 Perfection)]
Next, the arms changed; the joints became larger, and the strength increased.
It had a faint scarlet glow on it when it landed on the ground.
"laugh!"
The bluestone floor was instantly corroded without him exerting any force.
Even Lu Yuan didn't expect this.
When this hits someone, it leaves patches all over their body.
[Sixth-Rank Kung Fu Technique: Bone-Melting Meteor Fist] (201/10000 Great Success)
This breakthrough in strength has raised Lu Yuan's combat power to a new level.
It is much stronger than before.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, dressed lightly and simply, he walked out of the Prince's mansion and saw Xiao Hua waiting for him.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, she said softly, "Brother Yuan, take care on your journey."
Her eyes showed signs of fatigue, indicating that the girl hadn't slept all night.
Lu Yuan nodded: "I know, you should go back and rest."
Lu Yuan nodded: "I know, you should go back and rest."
After saying that, he flashed away and flew off.
After landing again, they were already outside the city.
Now that we've reached the Divine Palace Realm, unless it's a large-scale military expedition, there's no need to ride a horse anymore; one person can actually be faster.
The next period of time was just tedious travel.
However, along the way, he encountered many tribes in the wilderness, which seemed much more prosperous than before.
Caravans from within the Great Wall passed through every ethnic group in an endless stream.
Horses, cattle, and sheep surrounded the tribe.
Smoke rises from the chimneys, creating a rather harmonious scene.
During this period, with the money in hand, the lives of people in various regions were greatly improved.
After all, a large portion of the northern barbarians could actually become soldiers as soon as they mounted a horse.
The imperial court improved the treatment of the army.
It has a direct impact on ordinary people.
By the time Lu Yuan arrived at Tianwang Village, it was already half a month later.
I haven't been back for a year, and Tianwangzhai has changed a lot.
Lu Yuan, wearing a mask, stood at the foot of Tianwang Village, which had now been completely transformed into a giant city.
Based on speculation, the population inside has likely increased significantly.
Sunlight shone on his bronze mask as the jade pendant was taken out.
The guards outside the city gate were already kneeling.
Some people even ran inside, clearly to inform Wu Han.
A short while later, Wu Han came out with Man Tuo and Fan Chen. Upon seeing Lu Yuan, Wu Han bowed and said, "Greetings, Chief."
As for Man Tuo and Fan Chen, they knelt down on the ground.
"Greetings, Chieftain."
Lu Yuan waved his hand: "Get up, everyone, no need to be so polite."
After saying that, he stepped inside.
The three followed closely behind.
Along the way, Lu Yuan saw the dense population in the city and the buildings that were constantly being expanded, and said to Wu Han, "The population has increased quite a bit, hasn't it?"
Wu Han smiled wryly and said, "Now several imperial caravans stop here, and some people have simply bought houses and sent people to stay here permanently."
There were also some fugitives from Dayong and Dayu who had fled here with their families, hoping to save their lives. We took them in as well; they were all quite capable.
They were all registered and would unconditionally join the army during wartime.
Even those with the lowest cultivation levels are at the True Essence Realm.
When Wu Han said this, a glint flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes. That was not bad.
Judging from the number of people, there should be quite a few. Although they are all江湖人士 (jianghu figures) and not suitable for joining the army, they are capable individuals and can be used as scouts or assassins.
"Approximately how many people are there?"
"There are about 100,000, the strongest of whom are in the Void Realm," Wu Han quickly replied.
As they spoke, the group entered the main hall of Lu Yuan's residence.
Once seated, he continued, "How has the Crown Prince been supporting us lately?"
"The efforts are very strong, especially after the name of the Great Qin Kingdom was changed, it has begun to match the resources of the Imperial Guard, and the soldiers' cultivation levels are improving very quickly."
A smile appeared on Lu Yuan's lips.
It seems that Dayong is truly preparing to have Tianwangzhai take the lead in attacking Daqin after the war begins.
In this way, the battlefield can be pushed into the buffer zone, which will not affect the internal affairs of Dayong. They only need to provide resources.
This is a great idea.
It was also very clever, but Lu Yuan felt like laughing, but because of Man Tuo and Fan Chen, he couldn't show it.
He simply said, "Hmm, not bad. Train hard and don't let the Crown Prince down."
Then he continued, "When does the Crown Prince arrange for us to meet?"
"We'll set off tomorrow for Youzhou City. It's said that His Highness the Crown Prince has built a temporary palace there, and it seems he's planning something big in the Northern Frontier. That place will become his command center," Wu Han said softly.
Lu Yuan nodded: "Alright, in that case, Man Tuo will come with me tomorrow."
"Yes, sir!" Man Tuo replied immediately when he heard that Lu Yuan was going to take him along.
An excited look appeared on his face.
After all, the opportunity to work under the Great Chieftain is different. I heard that in the entire Heavenly King Village, there is no one else like him except Wu Han.
