Douluo's Peerless Confrontation

Chapter 326: Taking on the role of city lord, Yancheng

"Okay." Jing Chen nodded. Since the other party has made arrangements and the soldiers who arranged for him are also within the acceptable range, he naturally has no reason to refuse.
"When the time comes, I will lead the strong men of my family to help your Majesty block some rebels. I will definitely live up to the soldiers your Majesty entrusted to me."

"You lead the strong men of the family?" Emperor Dou Ling was stunned and understood the meaning of Jing Chen's words. He wanted to keep those strong men by his side.
"This is not good." Emperor Dou Ling was a little reluctant and wanted to say, you are a child, so don't waste the strength of these strong men.
It’s okay to give you three thousand soldiers to play with, there’s no need to keep those strong men by your side, isn’t this nonsense?
But considering that saying this might hurt Jing Chen and make him dissatisfied with him, which would affect the cooperation between Dou Ling Empire and Samsara Shop, he didn't say anything.
"Those strong men in my family are not willing to listen to other people's orders. If they are allowed to follow those generals on the battlefield and listen to their orders, they will definitely feel dissatisfied."

"It's different when they follow me. They won't have any rejection mentality. This will also make it easier to command operations better."

Emperor Dou Ling thought about it carefully and found that it made some sense. Ordinary generals really couldn't restrain these powerful men with super Douluo cultivation.
Ao Yue, who entered the battlefield very early and helped the Douling Empire deal with the rebels, proved this point.
He obeyed the rules on the front line, no one could order him, and he was semi-cooperative with the arrangements of the generals.
In the letters sent from the generals on the front line, there were complaints about this super Douluo, accusing him of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and not wanting to sacrifice his life at all.
Once the opponent is stronger, he will choose to avoid fighting. Strong does not mean stronger than him, but means stronger than ordinary titled Douluo.
As long as it was a soul master of level 94 or above, he would avoid it as much as possible, not wanting to risk serious injury or even kill it.
Regarding this situation, Emperor Dou Ling was also helpless. The other party was not under the direct control of Dou Ling Empire, and he had no way to force him to order anything.
If the new Super Douluo are as negative as Ao Yue, then it's really not a good thing.
"That's okay." Emperor Dou Ling agreed to Jing Chen's request and let the super Douluo who came to help follow him and not be commanded by the frontline generals.
"Your Majesty, the rebels are three city passes away from Wuling City. If they are not stopped, they will probably attack Wuling City soon."

"Wuling City is the first store of our Samsara Shop in the Douling Empire. I live there now, so naturally I don't want it to be captured."

"If not, just let me take people to guard the city in front of Wuling City," Jing Chen volunteered.
Because of the support from Shrek Academy, the rebels also consciously moved towards Wuling City.
Jing Chen has no doubt that when the rebels reach Wuling City, the strong men from Shrek Academy will show up and attack them.
When the time comes, they will be attacked by a group of strong men and thousands or even tens of thousands of soul masters. Under such circumstances, they may really be in danger.
Jingchen wants the rebellion supported by Shrek to cause chaos in the Dou Ling Empire, but he doesn't want the situation to get too out of control.
If these rebels really occupy the Douling Empire, it will be more difficult for him to take advantage of the situation in the future. This is not what he wants to see.
Originally, Emperor Dou Ling wanted Jing Chen to go to other battlefields, but he thought that Wuling City was indeed facing the threat of rebels.
Moreover, there are quite a few rebels gathered in Wuling City. It would be a good thing if they could be eliminated with the help of Jing Chen and others.
"Then I will appoint you as the deputy city lord of Yan City, granting you the same power as the city lord, and you can dispatch troops and generals to consolidate the city's defense."

Emperor Dou Ling spread out a map and pointed at one of the cities. This city was located on a strategic line with Wuling City, with a city in between.
Now that the rebels have attacked the city in front of Yancheng, it is already too late to appoint Jing Chen there.
He also chose Yancheng, which had not faced the rebels head-on, and planned to let Jing Chen lead a group of powerful men to guard it.
He made Jing Chen the deputy city lord because of his identity and the fact that he had several super Douluo with him. Otherwise, how could he easily appoint the deputy city lord?
Moreover, Jing Chen, the deputy city lord, has power comparable to that of the city lord. This status does not match Jing Chen's age.
Jingchen did not agree directly, but asked about the situation in Yancheng, and all the questions he asked were relatively private military issues.
Emperor Dou Ling did not hide anything. Since he wanted to rely on the power of Jing Chen and others, he would naturally not hide anything on military issues.
After all, they are about to go to the front line. If they hide something, it may lead to bloodshed and sacrifice. This is not a small matter.
Emperor Dou Ling asked people to find documents that recorded the detailed situation of Yan City. This kind of document would be updated every two years to allow the emperor to easily know the status of each city.
Through this document, Jingchen also had a certain understanding of the situation in Yancheng. The military strength of this city can only be said to be average.
The permanent military strength is about [-], and there are about [-] soul masters. This kind of military strength seems pretty good, but it is not enough when facing the rebels who often number tens of thousands.
"Your Majesty, with the military strength of Lin City, it will be difficult to stop the rebel attack." Is Jing Chen doing this?
"It is naturally difficult for them to stop the rebel attack with their own strength, but with the help of strong men like you, it may be different."

A look of embarrassment flashed across Emperor Dou Ling's face, and then he was full of expectations, hoping that Jing Chen and others would surprise him.
A strong Super Douluo has a relatively large impact on the battlefield. With several Super Douluo, the impact will be even greater.
Although Yancheng's city defense force is not strong, once a few super Douluo join, it is possible for them to block the rebel attack.
"Let's give it a try and try our best to protect Yancheng, but I hope that when I arrive in Yancheng, the city lord will not block some of my military arrangements."

Jingchen said that this kind of more difficult challenge is more in line with his heart, and he needs such an opportunity to make a name for himself.
"Don't worry, I will ask the Lord of Yancheng to cooperate with you as much as possible. The battle will be based on your decision at that time," Emperor Dou Ling promised.
Even if Jing Chen didn't say it, he would still explain it like this. With these super Douluo that Jing Chen was going to bring, the city lord of Yan City should also rely on his opinion.
Otherwise, if there is a conflict between the two sides, then the city lord of Yancheng will only be beaten. How many super Douluo can he get?
Emperor Dou Ling immediately handwritten a letter of appointment, and the moment it was stamped with the jade seal, Jing Chen became the deputy city lord of Yancheng.
"I will immediately send a message to the Lord of Yancheng, explaining your appointment and the privileges granted," Emperor Dou Ling said.
"Okay." Jing Chen smiled and nodded, and said, "I'll go back to my family first, and I'll arrive in Yancheng in about four days."

"Almost, my letter to the Lord of Yancheng should have arrived by then. Many things will go smoothly after you arrive." Emperor Dou Ling made an estimate and said.
Four days later, we arrived at Yancheng. This city is not small, but it is not very big either. It covers an area of ​​only about [-]% of Wuling City, and the city walls are lower than Wuling City.
After Jingchen stayed in the manor for four days, he brought Snow Emperor, Xiaobai, and Taitan to Yancheng.
The three super Douluo he was talking about were the Snow Emperor and the three others. The Ice Emperor and Ice King stayed behind in Wuling City and trained in the manor.
Yancheng, the City Lord's Mansion, after Jingchen showed the token and appointment certificate given to him by Emperor Dou Ling, he was warmly invited to be a guest in the City Lord's Mansion.
The city lord of Yancheng is an old man who is over sixty years old. He is not very strong. This is not strong, naturally compared to Jing Chen and others.
His soul power is level 81, which is considered very strong compared to other soul masters in Yancheng. He is the strongest person in Yancheng.
But for those strong men like Jing Chen and Snow Emperor who have reached the title level, they are a bit weak. They can easily defeat or even kill them.
"Please come this way..." The city lord of Yancheng kept his posture very low, and enthusiastically and politely led Jing Chen and others to the lobby of the city lord's mansion.
His politeness was not only due to Jing Chen's status as appointed by the emperor, but also his fear of their strength.
Emperor Dou Ling's letter to him clearly mentioned that coming with Jing Chen were several powerful men with super Douluo cultivation.
For a Soul Douluo like him, Titled Douluo were very powerful beings and could not compete with them, let alone Super Douluo. This kind of strong person was the existence that he needed to look up to.
Along the way, the surrounding soldiers were frightened by the huge Titan Snow Demon King. When he passed by, these soldiers were frightened. The pressure brought by that size was great.
Not to mention these soldiers, even Contra, the Lord of Yancheng City, was panicked when facing the huge Titan Snow Demon King.
This was the first time he had seen such a huge person. In front of him, he looked like a child, only half his height.
Even though the human body formed by the albino transformation is relatively large, it still looks a bit small compared to the Titan Snow Demon King.
With this comparison, people are not so surprised by his size, and the visual shock it brings is not very strong.
"Please take a seat." After entering the hall, the Lord of Yancheng quickly motioned for Jing Chen to sit down and greeted the Snow Emperor and others warmly and politely.
Jing Chen did not hesitate to sit on the main seat and said to the Lord of Yancheng: "Old Lord, please come and sit too."

"This is your territory, but you are acting very reserved. This is unnecessary. We are not vicious people, so there is no need to be too nervous."

He could naturally see the nervousness of the city lord of Yancheng. This was a sign of awe for their strength. They were cautious in their words and deeds, for fear of making mistakes.
"This..." The Lord of Yancheng was stunned for a moment, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should sit on the main seat.
"Just come and sit down," Jing Chen said again. The Lord of Yancheng smiled politely and sat down next to Jing Chen nervously.
"The chair you have here is a bit small." Xiaobai and Taitan Snow Demon King looked at the small chair with helpless expressions on their faces and couldn't help complaining.
As soon as they opened their mouths, the Lord of Yancheng stood up in panic and wanted to explain, fearing to offend these two super powerful men.
"City Lord, they just said it casually and didn't mean anything else. Just sit down and sit down." Jing Chen spoke before the City Lord of Yancheng spoke.
He was also very helpless towards the uneasy appearance of the Lord of Yancheng. If this continued, it would not be easy to talk about serious matters.
"You two, just stand behind me. It'll be fine if you stand for a while," Snow Emperor said.
"Okay" Xiaobai and the Titan Snow Demon King stood behind the Snow Emperor obediently. The Lord of Yancheng was dumbfounded at this scene.
He could feel that the strength of these two people was very terrifying. Why would such a strong man be so respectful to this teenage girl?
He had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't ask them out. He could only hold them in, becoming even more curious about the Snow Emperor's strength and identity.
"City Lord, Your Majesty should have told you the purpose of my coming this time," Jing Chen said to the Lord of Yancheng.
"As I said, don't worry, Young Master Jing. I will try my best to cooperate with you in guarding Yan City. All troop movements will be subject to your orders."

The Lord of Yancheng immediately replied. After knowing the identity and strength of the other party, he had no desire to be greedy for power at all.
Even if he is asked to give up his position as city lord, it doesn't really matter. Anyway, he, the city lord, is about to retire. It's almost the same if he leaves early and leaves late.
"With your cooperation, City Lord, it would be great. Can you tell me in detail about the current situation in Yancheng?" Jing Chen said.
The information I learned from Emperor Dou Ling was only approximate, and obviously not as detailed as the information I learned from the city lord himself.
The Lord of Yancheng told the current military situation in Yancheng in detail without any concealment. At the end of the sentence, he sighed:
"With the strength of our city, we cannot stop the rebels at all. Once the rebels attack the city, it is estimated that the city will fall in less than ten days."

"Before, I was worried about the safety of the officers and people in the city. If the city is breached, they will definitely suffer."

"But now that you are here, I see hope. Maybe we can hold on to Yancheng this time and avoid being trampled by the rebels."

Although the lord of Yancheng is a little timid, he is still very kind to the people and his soldiers, and he is concerned about their safety.
Jingchen was a little bit impressed by the city lord of Yancheng, who was very cautious about this and treated them as if they were trying to please and flatter them.
From his words, we can feel that this is a relatively competent city lord who has lived up to the people in the city and the soldiers who worked hard for him.
"I don't dare to say that I will definitely be able to defend Yancheng, but I will definitely try my best," Jing Chen said, unable to give too many guarantees.
After all, he still doesn't know the specific situation on the rebel side, so it would be very irresponsible to blindly make guarantees.
It can only be said that he is relatively confident in guarding Yancheng. If they can't be solved by a few of them with super Douluo combat power, then let Yiyi take action.
With Yiyi's terrifying combat power, it is not an exaggeration to say that it can withstand a hundred thousand knights, and it is even a bit underestimated.
