Chapter 101: Reinforcements Arrive at First Dawn
This golden-haired man stood still for at least half an aisle, the figure sitting in front of him didn't seem to have any movement, but this golden-haired man remained bowed, without a hint of impatience on his face.
"As far as I know, in the past fifty years, the only ones who have broken through to the ninth rank faster than me are you." The figure sitting cross-legged on the ground suddenly spoke up after nearly half an eon had passed.
"I dare not, the three elders are deeply favored by the beast god, and I am so foolish, how can I be mentioned in the same breath as you." Kane replied with an unchanged expression to the other's praise.
"The favor of the Beast God is an exception, but I broke through to the 9th rank at the age of 34, you broke through to the 9th rank at the age of 37, your cultivation speed is not much slower than mine. Your strength and talent are also a genius in any race on the mainland."
"But just now, I made you wait for so long, yet your breathing remained calm and unchanged, without a hint of impatience. Your mental state is much stronger than Gaya's." Listening to the words from the figure sitting in the lotus position, it seemed that he had intentionally made his opponent wait earlier.
"You're overpraising me, General Kane breaking through the 9th rank isn't much slower than I am, it's just that I'm lucky." Cain seems to not be very concerned about the praise from this powerful elder, his expression remains calm.
"Guyana's kid was able to break through the 9th rank because the vice president of the Fire Bath Association had a 9th rank magic core on him, plus a earth system magic core collected by the Weilin family. The family set up an advancement formation for him, so he could break through the 9th rank bottleneck and catch up with you. But even though he's several years older than you, it still took him several years longer to break through the 9th rank."
The figure sitting on the ground suddenly stood up, turned around and slowly walked to the edge of the field. There were several fire-red stones there, emitting a faint glow outward. All the light in the field came from them.
This figure stretched out his hand, a layer of golden light flashed in his palm, and a fiery red stone block flew into his palm.
"Those under me do not understand the elder's intention." Upon hearing Gaya's reason for breaking through, Cain slightly raised his head to look at the figure with its back to him, a hint of odd color flashing across his face. He fell silent for a long time before opening his mouth to ask.
"'I must remember that in this life, I am first a Beamon, and secondly belong to my own family.' This is the house rule our Wylin family learned from your Sobel family, I think you also remember." The figure lightly blew off the dust on the stone in his hand and said without looking back.
"I will remember this family rule for the rest of my life." The other party still did not answer his question, but Cain regained his composure once again and said respectfully in a low voice.
"Yes, every living being in the world has its own strengths. Mice are good at digging holes, dwarves are good at forging, Gaya is good at leading troops, and you are suitable for cultivation..." As he said this, the figure finally turned his head around, with a few strands of golden hair shining on his face and skin without any wrinkles, indicating that he seemed to be very young.
"After spending over a decade striving for that position, it's not just my pursuit, but also what the Sobel family needs. I absolutely cannot give up." Upon hearing this, Cain finally understood his intention, and with a hint of disdain in his eyes, he replied humbly yet calmly.
"It's not that easy to give up on the efforts of a lifetime with just two or three sentences from me! Only, after two years, I hope you will continue to work hard regardless of winning or losing, and with your talents, you will make a name for yourself in the future. Don't take some things too seriously."
Furthermore, if we want to exist on the mainland like the Mongols, we need more and stronger strongmen, that's why I asked you about that house rule." It seemed as though he hadn't grasped the meaning behind Cain's words at all, yet Augustus still spoke calmly.
"Ah, I misunderstood the Third Elder's meaning just now. Please punish me, Third Elder." Upon hearing Yuedai mention the family rules again and thinking of this Third Elder's usual behavior, Kain realized his mistake after a while and hastily apologized to the other party.
"Take this, it may help you hold your ground." Ignoring Cain's words of apology, Octavius stretched out his hand and tossed a gray cloth-wrapped object at Cain.
"What's this?" Cain hastily reached out to catch the package and asked in puzzlement.
"It's nothing, ten days ago a Wind Speech Sect and a Peiping Family's mid-term Dou Zun came to the fort to investigate, let me kill them, this is what I found, take a look." Yu Da Wei explained lightly and walked back to the center of the field to sit down.
"Ah...... I'll take my leave." Hearing the explanation from Yu Dafu, Cain, who was quite frightened, wanted to say something else, but saw that the other had already waved his hand to signal him to leave. Understanding the personality of this elder, Cain didn't dare ask anything more and could only bow his head and leave.
One
One, one
Two
"Four Eyes"
"Get up", "Get up, get up"
"As he" echoed in a low voice with the calls of several Mongol warriors beside him, the veins on his bare arms showed slight tremors, and the sturdy muscles of his arms were like a volcano about to erupt, making the skin on his arms full of golden long hair swell like an inflated balloon.
Liu Yu's hands were clasped together, holding a giant crossbow that was about four meters long, with the largest arc exceeding 2.5 meters, made entirely of fine steel, pure black in color, and shaped like an ancient warrior's hand-held crossbow.
Shortly after Liu Yu returned to the fortress, he found that more than a thousand meters behind the fortress, outside the four camps of other troops who came to support them, there were many new military tents. Some of the tents had not been set up yet, and many Mongolian warriors were setting up camp.
Look at these Beamon warriors who are setting up camp, their faces all look tired. Many of the Beamon and Wolf Tribe warriors who didn't have sentry duty ran over to help them out. Liu Yue wasn't a lazy person either, so he naturally joined in as well, helping two Beamon set up military tents and move things around.
When helping the friendly army, he didn't forget to get close, after a few affectionate words, Liu Yu knew that these Bi Mon warriors belonged to the second regular army of the Bi Mon tribe, and this time they were all here with their main force.
When mentioning the Second Regiment, many familiar faces would emerge in Liu Yu's mind: his elder cousin Bo Nan, Bu Ga Ning of the Suo Bo family, and Victor, Elina's early love interest. All three were serving in the Second Regiment. However, what left the deepest impression on Liu Yu was its formidable combat power.
When the Baimon tribe divided its ten divisions into infantry and cavalry, there were two exceptions: the First Division of the Baimon Tribe and the Second Division of the Baimon Tribe.
The special thing about the first division is that it doesn't have its own lieutenant, and its highest official is the Grand Lieutenant, a division personally managed by the kingdom's highest military officer. As the ace division of the Beastman Kingdom, its combat power and achievements are naturally not to be mentioned.
And the second battalion was another trump card in Bimon's hand, this battalion had produced countless famous generals and strong men. In the history of the Beastman Kingdom that Liu Yu read, many later became Beast King, Da Wei, and Da Zhanglao of the Bimon tribe were once the lieutenant of the Second Battalion, such as his grandfather Kluo Wang, father Gaya, and elder Mikail, all of whom had been lieutenants of the Second Battalion.
As for the name of the second lieutenant, Liu Yu had heard it many times before. That was Kayne Sobel. The current only qualified and powerful general of the Beastman Kingdom who could compete with his father Gaya for the throne, also led the Second Legion to do several earth-shattering things.
Nine years ago, Kain led the Second Regiment on the border, facing a 20,000-strong full-strength legion of the Farnod Empire. One thousand Beimon warriors fought against 20,000 enemy soldiers, and after a fierce battle that lasted for a day, the Second Regiment managed to defeat them. At that time, this victory shook the entire Beastman Kingdom, and that battle became Kain's claim to fame.
For these two crack divisions, the Mongolian Military Affairs Department certainly has more requirements. The First and Second Divisions were cultivated as both cavalry and infantry when they were divided into cavalry and infantry divisions. They have been stationed on the border for much longer than the other eight divisions of the Mongolian Army, and often rotate in both southern and northern directions, sometimes as cavalry and sometimes as infantry.
After accumulating for hundreds of years, although there have been countless replacements of old and new, the traditional Wangpai teacher has been preserved. The warriors of these two teachers are absolutely elite in terms of riding, building fortifications, operating siege engines, and tactical literacy.
