I really became a king.

Chapter 492: The Military Office and the Brave Soldiers Camp
Jiang Yi has always regarded Tian Buyi as a talented person to be trained to be able to stand on his own in the future.

Among the eight tribes of Western Xinjiang, his status is second only to the veteran Lin Yizi. Even Jiang Yi's elder brother Jiang Zhongshan is slightly lower than him.

Tian Buyi has been working diligently for these years since he joined Jiang Yi, and the knot in his heart from those years has long been untied.

After hearing Jiang Yi's question, he thought for a while and replied: "Your Majesty, although the Chihan Land is a barren land, its location is too sensitive.

It runs across the north and south, and is adjacent to the Dali Nine Borders. It is not suitable to station too many troops there."

Jiang Yi nodded, but if no troops were stationed there, it would not take long before Prince Yi's rule over it would be in name only.

In other words, for this army, quality is more important than quantity; it must have strong mobility and the ability to reach all areas of the drought-stricken land in a short period of time.

In addition, the strength must be strong enough to deter the bandits who rely on underground canyons for survival.

"What do you think about the Hanzu Camp, Your Majesty?" Tian Buyi advised carefully.

A battalion of brave soldiers? Their fighting power was no problem. Besides, the bandits were not large in size, so a battalion of ninety-nine people could handle them without any problems.

But the drought-stricken land is too large, and ninety-nine people alone may not be able to take care of such a large area.

As if knowing Jiang Yi's concerns, Tian Buyi spoke again: "Your Majesty, we can think of a way to enhance the mobility of the Hanzu Battalion, such as... equipping them with mounts from the Youfeng Cavalry."

Jiang Yi glanced at Tian Buyi and said with a smile, "It seems that even you are not immune to this and have set your eyes on my Taotie mount."

Without waiting for Tian Buyi to say anything, he spoke again: "It is no problem to equip the Hanzu Battalion with these mounts, but you guys should forget about it, because I don't have that many."

Tian Buyi shook his head regretfully. The Youfengqi's mount was as strong as a ferocious beast, but as fast as lightning. If he could equip it, the combat effectiveness of his army would soar.

Jiang Yi didn't want to dampen the hopes of his generals, so he said, "I know what you are thinking, don't worry, there will be mounts.

The most urgent task now is to stabilize the situation in Western Xinjiang as soon as possible. Besides keeping a low profile, there are still many places waiting for you to develop."

Jiang Yi's words were suggestive, and Tian Buyi understood it, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

Not long after, Kongtong Mountain issued a transfer order.

The Hanzu Camp, which was originally stationed at the foot of Kongtong Mountain, moved to garrison in the area of ​​Chihan under the leadership of Commander Chilie.

When the news came out, the capital of Dali and the Quanshi Dynasty, which bordered the Red Drought Land, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Hanzu Battalion was powerful, it only had ninety-nine people and would not pose a threat to them.

However, what caught their attention was the new mount of the Hanzu Camp. It was actually a black-maned war wolf. Although not as tall as the mount of the Youfeng Cavalry, it was much taller than an ordinary warhorse.

The most important thing is its speed, which is completely incomparable to that of a warhorse. Moreover, its bared teeth, especially its two big fangs, are extremely aggressive.

This is the fourth special mount to appear under Prince Yi’s Mansion.

The first type is the mount of the personal soldiers who previously belonged to Prince Duan - the bullfighting beast, known as the "Bullfighting Iron Cavalry", which was basically incorporated into Jiang Yi's personal army camp.

The second type is the patrol beast, which is known for its speed. There are only a few thousand of them, and Jiang Yi organized them into a scout force. However, compared with the black-maned war wolf, its speed is still a bit slower, not to mention the Taotie beast, which is simply incomparable.

The third type is the Taotie beast of [Youfeng Taoist Soldiers], which is as powerful as a mountain and as fast as lightning.

The fourth type is the black-maned war wolf. Although there are not many of them, only ninety-nine of them, this is enough to show that Prince Yi’s Mansion has mastered the origin of this mount.

These four special mounts are not products of the Wild Continent. For example, the bullfighting beast was obtained by Prince Duan Jiang Lie from a secluded sect at a great cost in his early years.

As for the origin, it is the blessed land of the secluded sect.

Thousands of patrolling horn beasts were also taken by Jiang Yi from the secluded sects, and they also came from the cave paradise of the secluded sects. Therefore, all forces speculated that the mounts of Youfengqi and the black-maned war wolves should also come from the cave paradise!
After reaching this conclusion, all forces were shocked, which meant that Prince Yi's Mansion controlled at least one blessed land.

Where did they come from? You know, all the blessed places in the entire Manghuang Continent, whether big or small, are in the hands of the secular sects.

Even in the eight secular dynasties, there is no blessed land, only a pseudo-cave paradise. To put it bluntly, the spiritual energy is much richer than that of the outside world.

But now, Prince Yi Jiang Yi actually controls the blessed land, and judging from the quality attributes of the Youfeng mount and the black-maned war wolf, it is probably not an ordinary blessed land.

Because the higher the grade of the blessed land, the more powerful the mount it nurtures.

Why is there a blessed place in Prince Yi’s Mansion?
Many people thought of the Battle of Hanshan City three years ago. During the Battle of Hanshan City, wars broke out inexplicably in many places in the Manghuang Continent, and the party that took the initiative to initiate the war was more or less related to Prince Yi.

Was all this premeditated? Unfortunately, they had no way to verify it. Even the Inushi Dynasty, which participated in the battle of Hanshan City, knew nothing about it.

The only two mysterious elves who knew the inside story are both dead.

Jiang Yi ignored the various opinions from the outside world.

After discussing with his trusted subordinates, Jiang Yi set up the headquarters of the Hanzu Camp to the north of Heshuo, near Xuantong Prefecture.

Because there are 100,000 troops stationed in Heshuo from the Military Yamen, plus the garrison at the East Demon Realm Pass, it is enough to radiate to the drought-stricken area south of Heshuo.

As for the area north of Heshuo, it can be filled by the Hanzu Camp.

Originally, Jiang Yi planned to use Taotie as the new mount for the Hanzu Camp, but when he accidentally discovered an extremely powerful attribute of the Blackmane Wolf, he immediately changed his mind.

Because the black-maned war wolf is super thirst-resistant and can go without water for months after drinking a lot.

It can withstand both thirst and hunger, and after a full meal, it can go without food for a month.

After discovering this attribute of the Black Maned War Wolf, Jiang Yi felt like he had found a treasure. It was simply tailor-made for the Red Drought Land.

There is no better mount for the Reddish Lands than the Blackmane War Wolf.

Therefore, the entire fierce soldier camp was equipped with black-maned war wolves, and only through some special animal taming methods deduced by the golden man could the black-maned war wolves be made docile and obedient.

Without this method of taming the beast, even if you get the Black-maned War Wolf, you won't be able to ride it.

The same is true for the Taotie mount in this regard.

However, considering that there are only ninety-nine people in the brave soldier camp, if any emergency occurs, ninety-nine people may not be able to cope with it.

Jiang Yi then moved the Xingwu Yamen of the Shen Ce Mansion to the drought-stricken area.

The Martial Arts Office of the Shen Ce Mansion is filled with secular martial arts masters recruited by Jiang Yi.

In recent years, its presence in the Prince Yi's Palace has been very weak, and it can be said that it has almost no presence at all.

However, this time Jiang Yi planned to let the Xingwu Yamen officially come to the fore. In order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Xingwu Yamen, Jiang Yi even transferred Xing Kui, the eighth-level martial arts master, to the Xingjun Yamen.

With Xing Kui in charge, and assisted by Zhang Zhiyuan and other secular martial arts masters, the combat effectiveness of the Xingwu Yamen soared.

After some consideration, Jiang Yi set up the base camp of Xingwu Yanmen at the northernmost end of the red drought land.

It is close to the Inushi Dynasty and also close to the Northern Frontier. Most importantly, it is adjacent to Mount Futu, one of the Seven Sects and Eight Schools (you can check out the power map in the related part of the work).
