Transmigration begins with archery training

Did they come back alive?

Chen Sanshi sneered inwardly.

He came back alive, but what about Li Dazhi, Xia Erniu, and the others?

evidence.

If it's so hard to find, then fucking stop looking!

Is organ refining a distant concept?

Xiang Tingchun clearly didn't want to escalate the situation.

Because Luo Dongquan was his most trusted confidant.

Procedural justice is not possible.

The only outcome can be justice.

Chen Sanshi remained expressionless, only saying, "I humbly request that you, Commander, provide relief to the families of our fallen brothers!"

"More than that?"

Xiang Tingchun was overjoyed: "Once this matter is reported to the court, it will surely cause a stir throughout the court and the country! You will all be rewarded for this trip!"

"Listen up, officers and soldiers of Dasheng!"

Outside the city wall.

A lone cavalryman arrived at the city wall and shouted, "If you don't send His Highness out, we will surely massacre Poyang!"

"Then you're welcome to give it a try!"

Xiang Tingchun said, enunciating each word clearly, "I'll be waiting for you right here!"

"Alright! You just wait!"

The barbarian cavalry gradually retreated, disappearing into the distance.

Sieges are not something that can be done on a whim; they require a great deal of preparation.

Today, it can be considered that a challenge has been issued.

……

Seven days later, a battle report from a remote border county will be delivered by the Ministry of War to the Grand Secretariat, then forwarded to the Directorate of Ceremonial, and finally to the Palace of Longevity, where it will be read aloud by the Grand Eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial.

"On the second day of the eleventh month, Chen Sanshi, a sixth-rank military officer from Poyang County, led a 10-man night raiding squad deep into enemy territory. Surrounded by two thousand cavalry, they captured Prince Yuwen Jiu alive and returned unharmed."

"interesting."

Behind the curtain, the sound remained utterly still.

"Unfortunately, I was born in the wrong place."

"Enough. I have three treasures, the first of which is compassion."

"Give this young captain a chance."

The day after returning to the city.

The news of Chen Sanshi capturing the prince alive spread throughout Poyang.

His reputation almost directly surpassed that of Xiang Tingchun.

Two hundred more people from Poyang County came to join the army.

Xiang Tingchun accepted all comers and submitted a petition to the Commander-in-Chief's Office, requesting a temporary expansion of the Thousand-Household Garrison.

As war approaches.

The higher-ups will certainly not refuse.

In addition, Xiang Tingchun requested the allocation of troops to strengthen the defense of Poyang.

A great battle is about to begin!

Based on the findings of Chen Sanshi and his group, the Xihe tribe conservatively increased its troop strength to 5,000.

It's hard to say.

It really is related to the fairy treasure.

Next, the Witch God Church might infiltrate Poyang.

There's no way we can leave.

He didn't have a choice in the first place.

If I had joined a martial arts school, I might still be at Tianyuan Martial Arts School sucking up to Brother Liang, without even getting a bone-training technique.

Joining the army means acquiring martial arts skills, but it requires risking your life.

Every choice comes with its own price.

The only thing Chen Sanshi can do is keep getting stronger!

This trip to the grasslands was quite fruitful.

[Technique: Undying Golden Serpent Spear - Upper Level (Mastered)]

【Progress: 885/1000】

A life-or-death struggle, blood pumping.

The spiritual grains he ate before leaving were almost completely digested, and his proficiency in the cultivation technique suddenly increased dramatically, reaching an absurdly fast speed.

In the next few days, I should be able to break through to the skin training stage.

There's no need to announce it to the world; we can just make the breakthrough quietly.

It was originally to showcase talent.

That's about it.

Next, we still need to deal with internal organ cultivators like Yuan Zhi and Luo Dongquan; there's no need to make them wary.

the most critical.

Before undergoing internal organ refinement, there's no way to get promoted.

Why bother?

[Tracing the Clues and Hiding the Trail (Minor Success)]

Progress: (109/500)

Talk about it.

Xiao Xun deserves at least half the credit for surviving this time!

It lacks the incredible speed of the White Swan Horse.

It was absolutely impossible for Chen Sanshi to capture the Ninth Prince alive in such a short time.

Aside from the improvement of various proficiency levels.

The biggest gain.

This must be the sword!

"Keng——"

Chen Sanshi drew his sword, startling Lan Jie'er in his arms.

The two were on the brink of life and death.

After meeting, they cherished each other's company for a whole night.

This sword.

The scabbard is mainly made of ebony, with vine-like patterns outlined on the surface in gold, and a red gemstone inlaid in the center, which shines brightly in the candlelight.

The sword is three feet and six inches long, corresponding to the 360 ​​cycles of the heavens; it is one inch and eight-tenths wide, corresponding to half of the Heavenly Dipper. It is flawless, gleaming with a cold light, and its sharpness is imposing. It feels neither too heavy nor too light, just right.

"The Sword that Suppresses the Mountains!"

Chen Sanshi had read about it in a book.

The unified dynasty before the Great Prosperity was called the Great Yan.

This Zhenyue Sword was forged by the Emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, but who would have thought that it would fall into the hands of the Yuwen family a hundred years later?

After the fall of the Great Yan Kingdom.

The Central Plains region entered a period of division and fragmentation that lasted for more than a century.

People from other ethnic groups began to "Sinicize" themselves, reading books written by people from the Central Plains, wearing clothes written by people from the Central Plains, and speaking the language of people from the Central Plains.

Later, they were driven back to the grasslands by Cao Xie, the founding emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty. Over the past three hundred years, the "Sinicization" of the barbarians has regressed considerably, but their language has remained the same.

"What a sword!"

Chen Sanshi loved it dearly.

This sword almost destroyed his reed spear, and it has been sent to the forge for repairs.

After returning to Poyang, no one mentioned the sword to him, so it naturally belonged to him.

After practicing skin training, I'll also take some time to practice swordsmanship!

As for Prince Yuwen the Ninth...

It seems they were escorted to the prefectural city overnight, and then sent to the capital.

The prince has a noble status.

They have no right to decide whether to stay or leave.

"This is quite a great achievement. I wonder if the old emperor can give me something nice."

Chen Sanshi pondered to himself.

However, during the war, the distance between the northern border and the capital was very far, and it was unknown how long it would take to travel back and forth.

The most important thing right now is to improve our strength.

The next day.

Chen Sanshi arrived at the military camp.

Zhu Tong, Xu Bin, and others were all present and unharmed.

The fact that six of them survived was largely due to the composure under pressure resulting from the combination of the chariot formation and the commander's skill in leading troops.

Otherwise, they wouldn't last even a few minutes; they would be crushed instantly.

"Wang Li, you should know Li Dazhi and the others, right?"

Chen Sanshi took out twenty taels of silver: "Find some time to deliver the silver to their house, and while you're at it, check if the commander has paid the promised funeral expenses and compensation. If there are any problems, come back and let me know."

Although he was only a low-ranking soldier.

That's a human life too.

Unlike Xiang Tingchun, he didn't view casualties as just numbers; he would help out within his capabilities.

He didn't trust the officials to handle their affairs.

Who knows if the promised compensation will be withheld?

"Zhu Tong, needless to say, your healing garrison will cover the costs. I'll also cover all the resources you need for your cultivation and Blood Refining Realm cultivation. You can drink as much Blood Replenishing Soup and Vitality Replenishing Soup as you like."

Chen Sanshi said generously.

Xiang Tingchun couldn't afford to appreciate good things.

Blood-nourishing soup and vital energy-nourishing soup should still be given as a reward.

Otherwise, the ghost would still follow him.

"Thank you, sir!"

Zhu Tong and others clasped their hands in greeting.

These poor guys are desperately in need of tonics; otherwise, their cultivation speed would be far greater than it is now.
