C296 Red Stone Stronghold

Walking into the bustling temporary market, Lin Yun was in a good mood.    

    

The refugees' settlement had extended for nearly twenty miles. From the east to the Red Stone, the ancient path, from the south to the Shen Family Fort, and from the north to the Skyhill Mountain Range, it could be said that the refugee settlement was larger than the Fengyang City.    

    

However, although it was large, there were no defensive fortifications. Not to mention the attack of the human army, even a small portion of the Magic Beast would not be able to stop it. This was not what Lin Yun wanted to see.    

    

When he arrived at the ancient path of the Red Stone, he suddenly remembered the Cloud Guards that came with him to explore the ancient path of the Red Stone many years ago.    

    

At that time, he originally intended to focus on nurturing this Cloud Guards, but he was delayed due to various accidents.    

    

When he thought up to here, he immediately asked a Cloud Guards beside him, "Is Lin Zhi still working in the Cloud Guards?"    

    

Hearing this, one of the Cloud Guards hurriedly replied, "Reporting to the Young Lord, Lin Zhi was transferred to the Shen Family Fort by Commander Lu many years ago!"    

    

"He was transferred away! What position does he hold now?"    

    

"Reporting to the Young Lord, Lin Zhi is the first person from the Cloud Guards to receive the Young Lord's support. He is now the Chief Steward of the Shen Family Fort."    

    

"It's a pity that he is in charge of internal affairs. You, quickly bring my orders and order him to meet me on the Red Stone's ancient path!"    

    

"ITEM2!"    

    

Lin Zhi had left a deep impression on Lin Yun after the exchange many years ago. This man was smart, bold, and meticulous. He was a rare talent. Managing internal affairs was a waste of his talent, so Lin Yun wanted to find something for him to do.    

    

This ancient path of Red Stone was the only pass in the eastern region to enter the Fengyang City. It could be said that this place was the throat of Fengyang City.    

    

After passing the ancient path of Red Stone, it would be a flat plain of Fengyang. Once this place was occupied by the enemy, it would be difficult to defend Fengyang.    

    

Therefore, Lin Yun planned to build a defensive fortification here. He would send an army to guard this place all year round to prevent the enemy from entering. Otherwise, it would be troublesome.    

    

Currently, the Loongteng Empire was in chaos. It was possible that a certain army would suddenly attack them one day. Therefore, Lin Yun had to make sufficient preparations.    

    

He planned to build several cities outside the city and protect the Fengyang City in the middle. Then, he would build a defensive line on the northern Sky Mountain, build a cavalry camp in the southern Shen Family Fort, and use the cavalry to stop the enemies coming from the south.    

    

However, the prerequisite was that there had to be sufficient troops to guard the city. Therefore, after building the city and fortifications, he had to expand his army to defend such a long front.    

    

As he was thinking! He climbed up the mountain of Red Stone. At the peak of the mountain where rocks were rolling, he gazed at the plains in the east, and his mind gradually became absent-minded.    

    

The matter became more and more complicated, making him have to change his plans and plans again and again. Aman's departure and Xiao Qingling's disappearance made him even more depressed.    

    

Now, he wanted to save Lin Wanquan, but he was unable to extricate himself. Fengyang City had become the target of public criticism. Although it was safe for the time being, Lin Yun knew very well that Fengyang City would become a place that militants would fight for in the future.    

    

This was caused by the geographical location. Fengyang City was located at the border of the three empires. The west side was the Xifan Empire, and the south side was Ao Lai. Although the west side of the Wind Mist State was blocked by the Magic Beast bush, the west side of the Wind Mist State was still in the north. However, there was also a conflict of interest. Because the Fengyang City was the bridgehead between the Wind Mist Kingdom and the south, if this country occupied this place... Then his tentacles would be able to reach the south plain. Therefore, the Fengyang City had a strategic significance to the Wind Mist Country.    

    

As for the Aolai Kingdom in the south, it was needless to say. They had never stopped opening the path to the Magic Beast bush. If the Loong family had not been guarding the border all this time, the army of Aolai Kingdom would have come here a long time ago.    

    

Comparatively speaking, the Xifan Empire posed the least threat because there was no benefit that they could get in Fengyang. However, they would not sit idly by and watch the Fengyang City fall into the hands of other countries.    

    

Therefore, to Lin Yun, he had enemies from all directions.    

    

In the past, there was still the Loong family that was holding him back. Now that the Loong family was finished, the Mist Wind Empire and Aolai Kingdom could not hold on for long. A war could break out at any time.    

    

It could be said that Lin Yun's heart was heavy at this moment. Although his combat strength was heaven defying, he was unable to defend against the armies of a few countries by himself. He was already worried about Zhong Zhong.    

    

A haze of haze covered Lin Yun's face. He turned around and saw the two Cloud Guards who had rushed up the mountain. One of them was Lin Zhi, who had come with him all those years ago.    

    

At this time, Lin Zhizhi had already stepped into the peak of Five Elements King Stage. With the enhancement of the Inheritance Pool's bloodline, his combat strength had probably reached the limit of the five elements.    

    

The moment he saw Lin Yun, he dashed towards him.    

    

"Lin Zhi greets the Great General!"    

    

"Get up!"    

    

" Thank you, Great General! "    

    

Lin Yun looked at him calmly and continued, "Do you remember this place?"    

    

"Reporting to Great General, this subordinate remembers!"    

    

"Yes! I plan to build a fortress here, build fortifications on both sides of the ancient road, and stop the enemies from Donglai. How many troops do you think we need to defend against them?"    

    

Hearing this, Lin Zhi's dark face revealed a contemplative look. After a while, he slowly said, "I think ten thousand people are enough!"    

    

"Oh?" Lin Yun was curious. He tilted his head and looked at Lin Yun for a while before he asked, "There is a large plain ahead that can accommodate millions of soldiers at the same time. How are you going to defend ten thousand people?"    

    

"General, as long as we defend the ancient road, the rolling stones on both sides of the slope only need to be equipped with defensive weapons. If the enemies charge together, we will throw the stones down. Even if there are millions of soldiers, there is nothing we can do about it."    

    

"Haha... What if the enemy attacks from a long distance?"    

    

"Hehe... General, our fortifications must be set up in a special way. I thought we were going to build a wall on the mountain and dig trenches behind the wall. We just need to leave a hole in the wall to shoot arrows. When the enemy charges, we will go up the wall and start a fire. When they attack from afar, we'll hide in the trenches and shoot arrows. That way, we'll be able to minimize our losses."    

    

"Not bad, wonderful, truly wonderful! Hahaha... You are indeed a talented general!" Lin Yun laughed loudly and patted his shoulder lightly.    

    

Lin Zhi was praised by Lin Yun. He scratched his head in a simple and honest manner, which made Lin Yun admire him even more. He immediately asked, "Do you want to lead the army?"    

    

"General... I..."    

    

"No need to hesitate. Just think, don't think if you don't want to!"    

    

"General! I think Commander Lu Lin wants me to go to the Shen Family Fort to be a butler, I'm about to suffocate, I've been wanting to lead troops to war for a long time!"    

    

"Alright, I'll give you this chance now. From now on... You are the general of the Red Stone Fortress. You must build the defensive fortifications here in a short period of time. Then I will give you thirty thousand soldiers of the Black Iron Army. You must guard this pass well. Don't let me down. "    

    

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhi's face turned red with excitement. He shouted excitedly, "Lin Zhi will not let down the great general's expectations. He will definitely guard the ancient path of Red Stone!"    

    

"Alright, you go and find Shangling to lead the men now! Don't slack off!"    

    

"Yes! Your subordinate will retire!"    

    

After he finished speaking, Lin Zhi excitedly ran down the slope. He was like a bird that had taken off its cage, cheerful to the point of being unable to find the north.    

    

Lin Yun smiled as he watched him leave. He also went down the Red Stone mountain range and rode on the Hell Stallion. He started inspecting the settlement again.    

    

Every time he walked to a settlement, he would let the Cloud Guards who accompanied him record all his thoughts. It was only when night fell that he returned to Fengyang City with some tiredness.    

    

The next day, Lu Lin brought Tieh Jier and Lu Xian to the Xifan Empire.    

    

On the third day, the construction of the city outside of the city started. The entire Fengyang City was mobilized. All the Black Iron Army, except for the Tiger Protection Legion guarding the northern mine, joined the construction team.    

    

For a moment, the busy atmosphere spread to every corner.    

    

Mountain opening and stone breaking, the neighing of warhorses, the incessant shouting!    

    

New buildings were erected one after another. Everything was about to start anew!
