Zhan Long Chapter 1001- Ice Cavern

Afternoon, south gate of Tian Ling City. Ye Lai led a bunch of Xia Yu Army soldiers to recruit the incoming NPCs. Of course, many of the NPCs who came were Mercenaries, with some being Lumberjacks and Hunters. Most were civilians and only a handful were from the War College. After Owen died, Xia Yu Army lost its advantage and Ye Lai only took over for half a month. Naturally, he could not have done so much in this short time.

Lin Wan Er, Dong Cheng Yue, and I were strolling and we took a look. "Ye Lai, how many troops does the Xia Yu Army have now? Are you guys strong enough?"

Ye Lai's face became bitter. "We had five thousand; I've only managed to recruit seven thousand plus so far. Is that enough?

Ye Lai laughed. "How can I compare to you? You are the emperor's teacher, while I am just a piece of grass..."

"Okay, stop grumbling. I'll speak on your behalf next time so that the Xia Yu Army can be allowed to recruit students from War College."

"You really are my blood brother!"

I headed out of the city and straight towardthe Fire Crystal Basin. I brought the girls to tour the camp of the Barbarian Tribe; the moment I showed up, some chiefs of the tribe displayed grateful looks. They were probably happy that I had brou
