God Emperor of Sword Domain

Chapter 513 The Location of Floating Cloud City
"Young Master, when will you leave for Liuyun City? Fang will come to practice for you." Fang Qiangxiao saw that it was getting late and he was almost drunk. He was about to go home, thinking about practicing again in two days.

After careful consideration, Ye Xuan said: "Since you have to leave, then don't procrastinate. I didn't intend to stay in Chaohua for a long time, but I didn't expect to stay for half a year. Since I have to leave, then go briskly. Tomorrow Let’s go and return to Floating Cloud City as soon as possible, so we can arrange things earlier.”

Floating Cloud City is located at the southern end of Panlong Mountain Range, which happens to be the junction of Donglu State, Longyuan State, and Nanhuang State.

Although it is located at the junction of the three states, there are many deserts in Longyuan Prefecture and Nanhuang Prefecture, so Floating Cloud City is not close to the station of Longyuan Army, it is thousands of miles away.

In addition, the road from Floating Cloud City to Longyuan Prefecture is rough and difficult, so Floating Cloud City is not an important traffic route.

Therefore, Floating Cloud City is usually not a battleground between the two countries, but once a war breaks out in Longyuan Prefecture, Floating Cloud City will still be more or less affected.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, are you in such a hurry?" Fang Qiangxiao frowned slightly.

"The flames of war in Longyuan Prefecture are renewed, and there will definitely be turmoil in Floating Cloud City. I need to go back and deal with some things." Ye Xuan replied.

Fang Qiangxiao nodded and said: "Since that's the case, then Fang won't leave tonight. The three of you and I will get drunk, how about it?"

"Okay!" Ye Xuan felt that Fang Qiangxiao's words were quite elegant, so he asked, "Brother Fang looks like a Confucian scholar, but he doesn't look like a general."

"Don't be a big brother like a young master. When he was young, Qiang Xiao liked to study more. Later, when he was traveling in Longyuan Prefecture, he saw some things that made him want to join the army." Fang Qiangxiao replied.

Mo Wu suddenly became a little silent.

Fang Qiangxiao looked at him and asked, "Mo Wu, why didn't you talk? Didn't you have a high spirit just now?"

Mo Wu glanced at Ye Xuan, and said: "I can't hide things, I just said it straight, I want to go to Longyuan Prefecture to kill the sky demon, I don't want to stay in Floating Cloud City."

Ever since Ye Xuan gave him his name, he decided that he would follow this young master for the rest of his life, but he still wanted to join the Longyuan Army to kill the Heavenly Demon.

"If you really want to go, I'll ask for another letter to let you go." Ye Xuan didn't care about it.

"No." Mo Wu shook his head with a serious expression, and said, "Brother Fang is right, my life was saved by the young master, and my name was given by the young master, and I have to follow the young master from now on."

Ye Xuan couldn't help but find it funny: "Then I'll hide in Floating Cloud City from now on and won't come out, are you willing too?"

Mo Wu's expression became even more sad, but he still affirmed: "Then I can only wait until I am old, the young master doesn't need me anymore, and I will go to Longyuan Prefecture to be an old soldier and kill the sky demon."

Fang Qiangxiao couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and said: "The muscles of your body really grow into your brain."

Mo Wu looked at Fang Qiangxiao with a puzzled face, not understanding the meaning of these words.

"Mo Wu, you are not smart, but you are wise. Knowing what to do is right, which is very important." Fang Qiangxiao said with a smile.

"What does Brother Fang mean? I still don't understand." Mo Wu frowned even tighter.

Fang Qiangxiao explained: "It means that you are a fool, you know who to listen to. I will remember clearly in the future, and I will follow you wholeheartedly. I guarantee that you will enter the ancient kingdom of the sky demon and avenge your mother one day."

"Really?" Mo Wu's eyes widened, and his emotions immediately rose.

Fang Gunxiao took out a map of Longyuan Prefecture and its surroundings, and spread it on the stone table.

This map mainly draws the topography of Longyuan State, but it also includes some places around Longyuan State.

In the upper right corner of the map, Floating Cloud City happened to be included.

Fang Gunxiao knocked on the wall where Liuyun City was located and said, "Did you see it? Liuyun City."

As he spoke, he slid his finger across the Yuelong Canyon to the west of Floating Cloud City, and said, "There is still this place, Yuelong Canyon."

In the end, he moved his finger downwards, and said in Tufang City, which is thousands of miles away from Floating Cloud City, "There is still here, Tufang City."

Mo Wu tilted his head and stared at the map, but couldn't see any way out.

Fang Gunxiao continued pointing at Tufang City, and explained: "Tufang City, a very desolate city in the Dragon Bone Wasteland. Almost no one lives there, but the Longyuan Army has to use heavy troops to garrison it. For this, the Longyuan Army needs to consume a lot of The supplies here, a desolate city, but it takes supplies to garrison, do you know why?"

"I don't know." Mo Wu shook his head vigorously, like a rattle.

Ye Xuan and Fang Qiangxiao had already thought of it together, with a smile on his face, no need to explain, just look at each other to know what the other party was thinking.

"Because of this." Fang Gunxiao pointed to the Yuelong Canyon again, and explained, "Yuelong Canyon, this is the only shortcut to enter the human territory from the Far West except for the Snow River..."

"...If the Sky Demon Race passes through the Yuelong Canyon, they can directly reach the back of our Longyuan army. If they don't garrison troops in Tufang City, then the Longyuan army may be attacked from behind at any time."

Mo Wu nodded, but he had a new question, pointing at Floating Cloud City and said, "Then why isn't the Longyuan Army stationed in Floating Cloud City, and the young master is in Floating Cloud City, wouldn't it be better?"

Fang Qiangxiao shook his head and said with a smile: "There are too many reasons for not stationing troops in Floating Cloud City. First, the thousand-mile journey from Floating Cloud City to Tufang City is very difficult. Garrisoning troops in Floating Cloud City, the delivery of supplies will become a big problem."

"Secondly, Liuyun City is in the territory of Donglu State, not within the general's fiefdom. If you want to garrison troops in Floating Cloud City, you will have a lot of troubles. The garrisons in Yuanzhou are almost separated and cannot be coordinated from head to tail, so the garrisons in Floating Cloud City are equivalent to a free meal for the Sky Monster Clan."

"Fourth..."

Fang Qiangxiao wanted to continue talking, but Mo Wu had already held his head and said, "Needless to say, my head was blown up. Anyway, Floating Cloud City cannot garrison troops."

Fang Qiangxiao showed a smile, changed the topic, and said, "Okay then. Let's continue to talk about why the young master is in a hurry to return to Liuyun City."

Mo Wu wanted to hear this, so he immediately became serious.

"Although Floating Cloud City cannot be garrisoned by the Longyuan Army, if Floating Cloud City can develop into a mighty city, then even if there is no garrison, Floating Cloud City's own strength can resist the siege of a small army of Sky Monster Clan. "Fang Gunxiao said.

Mo Wu didn't know much about Liuyun City, so he asked: "Then Liuyun City is a heroic city?"

"Not yet, even a year ago, Floating Cloud City was still a first-class small city." Fang Qiangxiao replied.

When Mo Wu heard that Liuyun City was a first-class small city a year ago, his expression drooped.

He walked all the way from Longyuanzhou to Chaohua, had seen many cities, and knew the levels of human cities very well.

So as soon as he heard about a first-level small city, he knew it was a city that couldn't be smaller. The city wall could be jumped over with a single vertical leap, and even human warriors couldn't stop it, let alone sky monsters.

Fang Qiangxiao changed the topic, and continued: "However, I inquired about the son's news with Director Qin, and learned that after the son became the city lord, he developed Liuyun City from a first-level small city to a third-level city in just half a year. If it continues to develop at this speed, it is very hopeful that it will develop into a mighty city. At that time, Floating Cloud City will be able to share the pressure behind the Longyuan Army, and the help to the Longyuan Army is a blessing from heaven!"
