**【General’s Summon Card: The host can randomly summon a general from the land of Xia.】
**【Note: The summoned general will have 100% loyalty to the host.】
Five thousand years of history.
The land of Xia boasts countless famous generals.
Those who have left their names are all formidable figures.
If it were someone like Zhang Liang or Zhuge Liang, they could help with strategies and guide the realm.
Or one could enjoy the company of someone like Liu Shan and remain oblivious to the world.
If it were generals like Dian Wei or Lü Bu with outstanding combat prowess, they would be perfect for fighting enemies and gaining points.
But… I hope my luck isn’t bad enough to summon Zhao Kuo or Ma Ji?
Forget it! Ye Chen decisively clicked to use the general summon card.
Another flash of golden light, and an electronic voice sounded:
【Congratulations to the host for using the General Card, obtaining general: Zhao Zilong!】
Zhao Zilong?!
This is a general from the Three Kingdoms era, known for his excellence!
He entered and exited the battlefield seven times, with unparalleled loyalty and esteemed character!
Ye Chen swallowed hard, extremely excited.
He quickly scanned for Zhao Zilong’s figure.
But he only saw the dumb face of the captain of the personal guards:
“Your Highness, what’s wrong?”
“……”
Ye Chen was momentarily silent.
This damn system isn’t bugged, is it?
He hurriedly inquired in his mind:
“Where’s Zilong?”
Fortunately, the system would take care of every lost child.
【General: Zhao Yun: Note: To avoid shocking the world, the general will arrive on his own after a few days】
Holding the mindset that good things come with patience.
Ye Chen ignored the irritating sound in his mind.
After tending to the wounded personal guards from the battle.
Ye Chen instructed to set out again.
Now thoroughly far from the capital.
Arriving at the second city north of the capital.
The further north one goes, the more desolate the cities become due to the harsh climate.
The common people seen along the way were mostly emaciated.
Ambushes by mountain bandits, horse thieves, and marauders were also becoming more frequent.
Although Ye Chen was a prince.
The rewards are high, and brave men are plentiful.
In this world where food is scarce, fear has long been set aside.
Even with a hundred men, despite being a solid wall of bronze and iron.
Many people were injured.
Seeing the weary personal guards, Ye Chen had to slow down the march.
At the same time, when passing through a county, he found some doctors to treat their ailments.
Huai Bei Post Station.
Ye Chen noticed the sky was dim, and it was getting late.
He opened the door, intending to assemble the troops.
As he reached the stairs, he heard a loud voice from below.
“Please inform, I am here to join His Highness Ye Chen!”
“What is your surname and given name? State your name and whether you have a household registration?”
The captain of the personal guards questioned.
“I am Zhao Yun, courtesy name Zilong, as for this…”
Seeing that the person in front could not state his identity, the captain’s face darkened.
“Alright, you can’t even state your identity…”
Before he could speak further, hurried footsteps were heard behind him.
The prince, who had shown no emotions these days, actually approached the unknown person with a smile.
“Subordinate Zhao Zilong, paying respects to His Highness!”
Zhao Zilong immediately knelt and bowed before Ye Chen!
“Rise!”
Ye Chen looked at the imposing general in front of him, overjoyed.
He arrived just in time!
“From now on, you will be my personal guard!”
The captain of the personal guards was confused but thought of the changes brought by Ye Chen in recent days and chose to leave without saying a word to assemble the troops.
However.
Not long after.
He discovered.
The prince’s high regard for Zhao Zilong was not unfounded!
With Zhao Zilong’s addition, the combat effectiveness of the entire personal guard team improved significantly.
When encountering ambushes in the forest, on paths, or in the wilderness.
This seemingly unremarkable Zhao Zilong could truly fight against hundreds!
He and the prince were like a meat grinder, ruthlessly killing the passing bandits!
The personal guards were of little help.
In such a situation, the personal guard team went from initially opposing the prince.
To later, they were entirely devoted and willingly loyal!
Some even imagined:
Since a powerhouse like Zilong is so loyal to His Highness.
It’s conceivable that His Highness might have been pretending all along!
As they neared the northern frontier, many mountain bandits along the way had already received word.
The useless prince’s team is not to be underestimated!
As a result, the points and attributes Ye Chen obtained were steadily decreasing.
However, he did not lose heart.
Because in three days, they would reach the northern frontier!
At the same time, his strength attribute had reached ten points.
He was now able to match Zhao Yun in combat and challenge the entire personal guard team!
……
Northern Frontier Yuzhou City.
Three days passed in a flash.
“Report, General, the Seventh Prince has arrived outside Yuzhou City and is now coming to report to the General!”
Inside the tent, with flickering candlelight.
The dark-colored tent mixed with the faint smell of leather and iron, behind which the commander of the northern frontier, An Lushui, sneered coldly.
“Report? An exiled prince deserves my personal reception?”
“Send him to the death camp!”
The lieutenant below hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.
The death camp was a place for cannon fodder.
The place where soldiers fought on the front lines…
Seeing the subordinate’s lack of response, An Lushui said languidly:
“Why haven’t you gone to take care of it?”
“A prince who is a waste is always in the military camp, for me, it’s not a good thing…”
……
“From now on, you will be stationed here!”
Moments later.
Ye Chen and his party arrived at the death camp.
A vast area.
Only this place seemed isolated from the world.
The tents here were dilapidated, with rusted weapons hanging aside, and a foul smell of decay coming from everywhere.
The lieutenant, having made this statement, prepared to leave.
Seeing the dilapidated and shaky tents, the personal guards were enraged!
According to the rules, although the prince was exiled, he should have been treated as one of the hundred generals appointed by the emperor and entered the formal military camp!
Now, they dared to assign them to this death camp?
Even if they themselves could endure, the prince was a noble person!
And moreover, what is the death camp? It’s a place where one survives by luck, and today’s survival doesn’t guarantee tomorrow!
In battle, one has a nine out of ten chance of dying!
The captain of the personal guards stepped forward, grabbing the lieutenant by the collar.
“Is this the will of the commanding general?!”
“Don’t you fear we will report this to the emperor?”
His gaze was like a predatory tiger, causing the lieutenant to shiver.
The lieutenant swallowed and angrily said:
“Show some respect to this lieutenant! Such disrespect is a breach of military orders!”
“As for whether it is the commanding general’s will, you are not qualified to know!”
The captain of the personal guards was furious, raising his fist, ready to strike the lieutenant.
At this moment.
Ye Chen waved his hand:
“I think the death camp is quite good.”
