Chapter 17 Time is ruthless and the years fly by

After Ye Chen formulated a definite war plan, the entire empire ushered in an era of war.

Everyone respects martial arts and everyone strives to be martial.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the major military departments of the empire began to recruit large numbers of soldiers.

At the same time, a large number of militias will be trained to gradually transition to a state where everyone is a soldier in order to cope with the war thirty years later.

It can be predicted that after the Yanhuang Empire starts a global war in thirty years, it will inevitably need a large number of troops. By then, the existing troops will simply not be able to support the occupation of such a large base.

As news of the war preparations spread throughout the country, the people were in an uproar, followed by a frenzy.

Since Ye Chen established the empire, he has been brainwashing the people of the empire for nearly two hundred years, and this effort was not in vain.

Over the years, it can be said that 99% of the people in the entire empire are his fanatical followers.

See him as the only god.

Now, where his sword is pointing, the people's response is very enthusiastic, which can be seen.

Chuanyan Province, provincial capital, Ming capital.

"The latest Empire Weekly Report, the Emperor held a grand court meeting yesterday to determine the Empire's development plan for the next thirty years. The military departments of each province are fully engaged in war preparations."

"The latest Empire Weekly Report, the Emperor held a grand court meeting yesterday to determine the Empire's development plan for the next thirty years. The military departments of each province are fully engaged in war preparations."

On the wide streets, newsboys rode bicycles with thick copies of the Empire Weekly on their backs, shouting loudly along the city's streets and alleys.

Sun Yun, who was lying in the sun in the yard of his home, suddenly heard the voice of the newsboy outside and stood up with a start, "Preparing for the Thirty Years War, is the Empire going to start a war?"

Thinking of this, Sun Yun rushed to the door and opened it. He looked at the newspaper boy who had just passed by and shouted, "Xiao Hongzi, give me a weekly newspaper."

Hearing this, the newspaper boy who had just passed by stopped immediately. After seeing Sun Yun, he asked in surprise: "Brother Yun, when are you coming back?"

Sun Yun walked up to the newsboy and said with a smile, "I just came back from outside two days ago. By the way, give me a newspaper first. I just heard you shouting about war. What's going on?"

The newsboy quickly pulled out a newspaper from the cart and handed it to Sun Yun: "I only learned about this this morning. According to the weekly report, it said that the emperor suddenly convened a grand court meeting yesterday.

He ordered the formation of the Air Force and the Navy, which were combined with the Army to form three major forces. Thirty years later, he aimed at the entire world and started a war for world unification.

Therefore, the whole country must cooperate in this matter for the next thirty years and make every effort to accumulate the foundation for war. "

The newsboy's few short words had already stirred up a huge wave of shock in Sun Yun's heart.

At the same time, he quickly unfolded the newspaper in his hand and read the contents. As the newsboy said, the empire was actually going to send troops to the world to start a war for world unification.

"Damn it, I'm going to join the army, and no one can stop me this time."

After reading the newspaper, Sun Yun had only this one thought in his mind.

Anyone who is not a fool knows that this war information is a huge opportunity, an opportunity to achieve great things.

Since elementary school, they have learned from books about the empire that there are many countries outside the empire, and they also have a general understanding of the situations in those countries.

Compared with other countries, they feel proud because, in that era, the Yanhuang Empire was the most powerful.

Once the war starts, with the strength of the Yanhuang Empire, no country will be able to stop it.

Well, in such a favorable situation, anyone who is not a fool would know that they should get on board.

Low risk, high reward, is there anything better than this?

At the same time, young people like Sun Yun are everywhere across the country.

……

Imperial capital, Xuanhuang city, imperial palace.

Ye Chen looked at the two weapons exchanged from the system in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, because these two little gadgets were a little expensive. One of these two things was used to block the surrounding space to prevent the scum Sumali from escaping.

The other was to forcibly seize the opponent's dark silver weapon.

My biggest impression of the scumbag Sumali is that he looks neither male nor female. Apart from that, there is the flying knife made of dark silver in his hand.

It can be said that 80% of that guy's strength lies in that dark silver weapon.

This time, Ye Chen spent a lot of money to deal with the threat from Su Mali. He was determined that if he met the other party, he would not let him escape.

Otherwise, if the other party escapes, the threat will be great.

Although he now has the help of angels, having a gun himself and having other people's guns are two different concepts.

In the war of unification thirty years later, he only needs Azhui to help him intimidate the remnants of Denor and the scum Sumali, and the rest is his business.

And this is the best that Azhui can do.

After all, the unification war he initiated was a natural change of dynasties in the mortal kingdom, and Azhui could not help him at all because it conflicted with the order of justice.

Time flies, and ten years pass in a flash.

Yanhuang calendar, 210 years.

Ye Chen, who was handling things that day, suddenly heard Yuan Lan's report.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Guards just reported that General Long Yu has just passed away."

Hearing this, Ye Chen's movements suddenly paused. He put down the documents in his hand and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Is Long Yu gone? Alas, time is the most ruthless thing in the world."

"Yuan Lan, draft an imperial decree to posthumously confer the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery on Long Yu..."

"promise."

Hearing this, Yuan Lan immediately drafted an edict.

However, she was very uneasy in her heart, because this was the first marquis of the empire, from which it could be seen that Ye Chen valued Long Yu, his old friend.

From being the leader of his personal guards to the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard for more than a hundred years, Long Yu can be said to have made great contributions and hard work to the development of the empire.

The next day.

The empire held a grand ceremony to posthumously confer the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery on Long Yu of the Long family.

At the same time, a grand funeral was held.

For this reason, the capital of the Emperor of Heaven was packed with people, and everyone was discussing this matter. After all, this could be the first marquis since the founding of the empire. Although this marquis was conferred posthumously, a marquis is still a marquis.

The name Long Yu is destined to be recorded in history and passed down through the ages.

As the ceremony ended, the imperial capital fell silent again, but one could feel that the work spirit of officials from all over the country had been boosted by 30%.

Become a marquis. After Long Yu was conferred the title of marquis, who among the people who came after him would not want to be the next marquis, even if it was a posthumous title.

In the Yanhuang calendar, in 211, Yuanlong died of old age.

After hearing the news, Ye Chen was stunned. He didn't expect that in just less than two years, two old friends passed away one after another.

Walking out of the Qiankun Hall, Ye Chen looked at the deep starry sky outside and was very silent.

In the end, everything just turned into a sigh.
