Chapter 470 Eighteen Thousand Troops

After the meeting, it was already the next morning.

Everyone left Star-Moon Castle and returned to their respective places.

Weilin walked out of the castle, climbed the inner wall, and looked out to the outer city. On the training ground, his aunt was training the Star-Moon Castle guards.

"How is the Star-Moon Castle guards now?"

"Master, under the training of Lady Flora, the strength of the Star-Moon Castle guards has improved greatly. Two hundred and thirty-six people have broken through the bronze warriors, and five have grown into silver warriors."

After Hilda finished speaking, Sisina saw this and added: "Every three days, Lady Flora will summon the resting guards for training. This has been the case since she became the instructor of the Star-Moon Castle guards."

Hearing the explanations of his two maids, Weilin could feel that his aunt had a strong competitive spirit.

However, this is also a good thing. Under her training, the Star-Moon Castle guards may be able to catch up with the second-level troops.

"Katarina, the two of you should teach her more."

"Yes, Master." Hilda and Sisina lowered their heads and replied.

After enjoying a moment of peace, Weilin asked his two maids to do the work, and he went to the griffin's nest leisurely.

"My Lord." Seeing Weilin's figure, Eunice put the mutant griffin cub in her hand in the soft quilt and saluted.

The mutant griffin Xing, who was sleeping nearby, heard the sound, opened his eyes, ran out of the nest, and laid Weilin on the ground.

"You are a father, but you are still like this." Weilin stroked Xing's feathers and said with a smile.

"Shashasha"

Xing rolled his eyes, climbed up from Weilin, picked up his two children, put them in Weilin's arms, and gently flapped his wings.

The two little guys are like their father, with snow-white feathers on their torsos and blue feathers on their heads and wings.

The mutant griffin cub turned his eyes curiously, looking at the strange creature in front of him, without any fear, and gently arched Weilin's chest with his head.

Weilin held the two cubs, teased the two little guys, and entered the nest.

The two female griffins looked at Weilin's figure, calling happily, expressing their inner emotions.

"Is it pregnant again?" Weilin pointed at the belly of the female griffin and asked uncertainly.

Hearing this, Eunice nodded and confirmed: "Yes, Lord, in January this year, Xiaoxue and Xiaoyu were pregnant again."

"Really high yield!" Weilin couldn't help but sigh.

"Shashasha"

Xing called a little dissatisfied, and gently nudged Weilin with his head.

"Okay, okay, change the name, call it many children and good fortune, not high yield, okay."

"Shashasha"

Seeing his master change his words, Xing accepted this new name.

"I look forward to the day when you speak soon." Weilin stroked Xing's hair and said with a smile.

By sensing the magic power in each other's body, Xing is still a mid-level silver, and his two wives are low-level silver. If they want to be promoted to the gold level, it will take at least twenty years.

"Shaha"

Xing nodded heavily, as if to tell Weilin that he would work hard.

After leaving the griffin's nest, Weilin went to see the three wind wolves and two rock giant lizards.

…

In mid-May, at the border of Xifeng Town, Xifeng County, the six battalions of Qixingling gathered again.

Eighteen thousand soldiers, with a thousand men in a formation, were strictly lined up, their battle robes and armors were shining, their swords, spears and halberds were sharp as new, and the whole army exuded a majestic and solemn atmosphere.

Standing on the high platform built of huge stones, Weilin felt a sense of heroism.

This army loyal to him was the result of his efforts for more than 20 years. Thinking back to the beginning, when he arrived in Qixingling to open up, his army was less than three digits.

"My Lord, all 3,126 soldiers of the Qixing Battalion salute you."

Cassius, a knight in silver-white armor, stepped forward solemnly, put his right hand on his chest, bowed and saluted, and reported loudly to Weilin, his voice was loud and firm, full of pride and loyalty.

The soldiers of the first three phalanxes beat their chests and saluted, bowing their heads to express their high respect to the lord.

"My Lord, 3,116 soldiers of the third battalion salute you." The high-level silver warrior Ideng stepped forward to salute and reported loudly in a low and powerful voice, full of determination and courage.

Greg followed closely behind, with a gentle and firm tone, and replied respectfully: "My Lord, 3,086 soldiers of the fourth battalion salute you."

"My Lord, 3,136 soldiers of the fifth battalion salute you." Ixus stepped forward and reported loudly, his voice was high and passionate.

"The 3,063 warriors of the Seventh Battalion pay their sincerest respects to you, my Lord." Imogen stepped forward and replied, her tone steady and powerful, showing her determination and loyalty.

Orion, as the last commander, stepped forward, stood beside Imogen, and said respectfully: "The 3,165 warriors of the Eighth Battalion will become the strongest shield in your hands. I salute you on behalf of the Eighth Battalion."

All 18,000 warriors maintained a salute posture, waiting for Weilin's next step.

"This battle aims to eliminate the monster clans that invaded the Qixing Territory. Take up your weapons and bring me victory."

"Loyalty, victory."

The voices of 18,000 people echoed between the empty sky and earth.

At this moment, Weilin felt an unprecedented achievement.

"Let's go."

Cassius jumped on his horse and led the troops into the wilderness.

Wei Lin walked down the platform, rode on the red phosphorus horse, led the guards and the silver wolf knights led by Kyle, commanded the fourth and fifth battalions, and marched towards the gray wilderness as the central army.

The seventh and eighth battalions were the rear army, responsible for escorting the supplies and food for the entire army.

This war was the first war that Wei Lin took the initiative to initiate.

"It's a pity that the second and sixth battalions need to be stationed in Qixing County and Luming County, otherwise it would be a grand occasion to assemble eight battalions and 24,000 troops." Wei Lin felt a little regretful about this oath.

Hearing this, Kyle whispered: "My Lord, this is your first time, but it is definitely not the last time."

"Haha, you're right, this is the first time, but it is definitely not the last time. After all, the garrison troops are insufficient. When Qixing County develops for another ten years, we will start to expand the garrison troops, and the standing army will be dedicated to fighting and training." Wei Lin couldn't help but imagine the scene of commanding tens of thousands of troops.

During the war between the kingdom and the dwarves, as the commander of the 135th Legion, although he also commanded 60,000 troops and the nobles under him obeyed his orders, they were not his own troops after all.

In addition, Weilin finally understood why some lords would gather their troops for training every once in a while. The feeling of facing tens of thousands of troops made him unforgettable for a long time.
