At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

When evening came, Xia Yun and his group, who had already made sufficient preparations, left the grassland inn with more than sixty carriages.

However, Xia Yun did not take everyone with him on this trip.

Tuoba Jingcheng still stayed in the grassland inn, and there were twenty or thirty barbarian warriors following him.

Today, the Grassland Inn has become Xia Yun’s property in Lantuo City, and enjoys a very good reputation in the Mobei grassland.

It would be such a pity to give up just like that.

Therefore, Xia Yun not only kept Tuoba Jingcheng in the Grassland Inn, but also directly allocated 500,000 taels of silver to Tuoba Jingcheng as funds for his activities in Lantuo City.

Tuoba Jingcheng can use this money to expand his influence in Lantuo City and its nearby cities.

Of course, Xia Yun’s main idea is still to use the Prairie Inn as the first base of Blackwater Tower in the Dune Kingdom.

Soon, the moonlight covered the entire earth.

Xia Yun and his group of more than sixty carriages finally arrived at the East City Gate.

Due to the tragedy that happened last night, at this moment, even though it was already dark, the entire East City Gate was still on high alert.

Fifty or sixty armored guards, each holding a flintlock rifle, patrolled back and forth continuously.

At the same time, the general defending the city also set up a cordon at the gate. Anyone who wanted to enter or leave the city gate would be blocked inside the city gate, and people outside would not be able to enter either.

When Xia Yun and his party approached the city gate, the general guarding the city immediately stepped forward and blocked the way of the convoy with his hand.

"Stop! What do you do?"

Only a low shout was heard from the general defending the city, and the muzzles of a dozen flintlock rifles around were immediately pointed at Xia Yun and his group.

Since the language spoken by the generals defending the city was Dune language, Xiang Wentian and others could not understand it, and they became very alert.

Among them, only Xia Yun and Tuoba Jinghui could understand each other's words.

Xia Yun immediately gave Tuoba Jinghui a look.

Tuoba Jinghui walked forward and took out a golden token from his arms.

"We are the Imperial Court Caravan, please clear the way immediately."

Holding the token purchased by the imperial court, Tuoba Jinghui was full of vigor, without any fear on his face.

And what happened next directly proved the role of this token.

When the general defending the city saw the words on the token clearly, his expression suddenly became stern, and there was no trace of scolding on his face anymore.

Instead, there was a look of flattery.

"It turns out to be the Imperial Court Caravan. We are currently carrying out the mission of blocking Lantuo City. I am so sorry."

The general guarding the city first bowed to Xia Yun and his group with an apologetic look on his face, and then turned his gaze to the soldiers guarding the city gate.

"Open the city gates immediately and let the Royal Court caravan leave the city!"

At the command of the general defending the city, the soldiers guarding the city gate naturally did not dare to hesitate at all.

With a creaking sound coming from between the two gates, the city gate that was originally tightly closed slowly opened at this moment.

This is the status of the Royal Caravan in the Dune Dynasty.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as they have the token purchased by the imperial court, even though the Dune Dynasty is large, Xia Yun and others can go anywhere!

Soon, under the respectful gaze of the generals defending the city, Xia Yun and his group of more than 60 carriages drove out of Lantuo City openly.

After a quarter of an hour, Xia Yun and his group had all left the city.

The two city gates were closed again.

"This token is really useful. It actually made the general guarding the city open the gate."

After leaving the city, Xiang Wentian let down his guard a little. He had been prepared to fight at any time.

"This is a token purchased by the Imperial Court. In the entire Dune Kingdom, there are no more than twenty caravans that are qualified to possess this token. Of course, they dare not disobey."

Tuoba Jinghui smiled slightly.

Compared with Xia Yun, Xiang Wentian and others, he knew much more about the Dune Kingdom, and naturally he was aware of the importance of this royal court procurement token.

Because of this, when he passed through the city gate just now, Tuoba Jinghui's face did not show any panic from beginning to end.

"Marshal, where are we going next?"

At this time, Tuoba Jinghui looked at Xia Yun, who was in the lead, and asked.

"Juancheng!"

Xia Yun looked towards the west and responded immediately.

According to the map, Juan City is about four hundred kilometers away from Lantuo City.

The convoy will travel slowly along the way and will probably arrive at Lantuo City in ten days!

Soon, after confirming the direction of the destination, Xia Yun and his convoy of more than 60 vehicles immediately set out on their journey westward.

However, about two hours after the convoy left Lantuo City, it suddenly encountered a group of uninvited guests on the way.

"Everyone prepare to fight immediately!"

Looking at the dozens of black-clad cavalrymen appearing on the plain ahead, Xiang Wentian was the first to react. He let out a loud shout and drew his weapon from his waist.

The convoy of more than a hundred people also followed suit and showed a posture of being ready for battle.

As long as Xia Yun gave the order, they would knock down all the cavalry coming from afar without hesitation.

But at the critical moment, Xia Yun suddenly waved his hand.

"Put down your weapons."

There was no trace of panic on Xia Yun's face, only calmness and composure.

It was because he had already recognized the other party's origins.

Although Xiang Wentian and the others did not understand, they still followed Xia Yun's instructions, put away their weapons, and stayed where they were.

Just a few dozen breaths passed.

Dozens of black-clad cavalrymen arrived in front of Xia Yun's convoy. The burly man in the lead immediately dismounted and came straight to Xia Yun.

The guards on both sides originally wanted to stop them.

However, when the burly man took off his black mask, everyone who followed Xia Yun showed an incredible look on their faces.

"General Jiang Wenzhong pays respect to the Grand Marshal!"

The person who came was no one else but Xia Yun's trusted general, Jiang Wenzhong!

"Get up quickly."

Xia Yun smiled happily.

At the same time, a cry of surprise came from Xiang Wentian's mouth.

"General Jiang Wenzhong, why are you here?"

Xiang Wentian's pupils widened, with an expression of surprise and joy in his eyes.

"I came to Lantuo City on the orders of the Marshal, but I didn't expect to meet the Marshal halfway."

Jiang Wenzhong explained immediately.

Before this, when Xia Yun and his party were still in Lantuo City, Xia Yun sent people to the Utengger Prairie to contact Xu Wan'er in order to expand the power of the Black Water Tower into the Dune Kingdom.

And then, without waiting for Xia Yun to speak, Jiang Wenzhong suddenly shifted his gaze to the cavalry behind him.

"Marshal, Lady Wan'er is here too."

Jiang Wen reminded again.

Just this one sentence was like a bolt of thunder, exploding directly among Xia Yun and his group.
