Chapter 616: Chapter 566: To What Extent Has He Cultivated?
“You must be aware that almost half of these millions of troops were gathered from the various provinces’ paths and guard homes. It is manageable to gather them for a short time, but if they stay here for an extended period, what would happen to the safety of the paths and provinces throughout the world?” Gu Ji looked at Wang Bo’an with a furrowed brow.
This is no small matter. The troops from the world’s guard homes are the key to maintaining stability in each province within the borders of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. If these guard troops were absent for a long time, the provinces and paths would likely become unstable.
Furthermore, these millions of troops, even if we were to re-recruit and train them, would take time. Not to mention the resources that would be consumed, time in itself would be scarce.
Wang Bo’an seemed to have thought of this before, and he didn’t mind Gu Ji’s worries at all. He laughed and said, “Mr. Gu, you’re overthinking. There’s no need to keep all these millions of soldiers here. When the time comes, we would only need to keep a third of the soldiers.”
“Is a third of the soldiers enough to hold on?” Gu Ji asked uncertainly.
The number of soldiers Wang Bo’an was talking about was far less than he thought. He wasn’t heartless. Gu Ji didn’t want to see an adverse outcome because there were too few soldiers on guard.
Wang Bo’an confidently said, “It is entirely sufficient. If it weren’t for this time’s training, I wouldn’t have brought so many soldiers.”
Indeed, the number of soldiers Wang Bo’an brought this time was already excessive. He brought all these soldiers to conduct training, letting more soldiers participate in these wars to create even stronger warriors.
According to his plan, once the situation completely calms down, all he needs to do is leave a third of the soldiers to maintain the current situation.
Moreover, this third of the soldiers doesn’t need to consist entirely of battle-hardened veterans; half of them can be veterans, while the rest could continue to be newly recruited soldiers from the various provinces’ paths and guard homes. They can use this place as a training field, sharpening more warriors.
“Oh Bo’an, why didn’t you tell us your plan earlier? You made me worry for nothing. But if this is the case, then it is the best possible outcome.” All of Gu Ji’s concerns were gone.
However, when he realized that Wang Bo’an had been prepared all along, he couldn’t help but sigh: “I originally thought that my military talent wasn’t up to par with yours, but now I know it’s incomparable.”
Wang Bo’an laughed, staying silent.
Gu Ji only sighed. When the other party didn’t respond, he didn’t press further.
He changed the subject, asking about another matter: “It’s been thirty years; I’m curious, what realm of cultivation has Brother Bo’an reached?”
Gu Ji was curious about Wang Bo’an’s current level of cultivation, and he believed that many others were curious as well.
Everyone knew that Wang Bo’an, besides showing his talent in leading troops, also demonstrated an astonishing talent for cultivation. His exceptional talent impressed many people deeply.
In many people’s views, Wang Bo’an’s talent was top-tier, surpassing even Zhao Baiyang and Xue Wuheng. In this world, there were only a few, like Pei Xuanjing the National Preceptor, who could outperform him.
Therefore, not long ago when Zhao Baiyang and Xue Wuheng made their moves and shocked the world, many interested parties naturally turned their attention to Wang Bo’an, wanting to know what step he’d reached. Whether he was in the Spirit Realm Sixth Level, or even beyond.
Wang Bo’an laughingly asked in return, “Is it you who’s curious, Mr. Gu, or the Elder?”
“Haha, just as the elder predicted, truly can’t hide anything from you.” Gu Ji smiled bitterly and shook his head, “The elder also wants to know how far your power has come?”
Wang Qiong, as the Ministry of War’s Secretary, knowing the potential situation the Great Ming Divine Dynasty may face, naturally wants to understand the powers the Great Ming Divine Dynasty currently has.
As for Wang Bo’an, a standout with exceptional talent for cultivation, knowing how far he’s come is critical. Only then can Wang Qiong better respond to any situations.
“Haha,” Wang Bo’an chuckled. Gu Ji didn’t rush him and simply waited silently for his answer while guessing Wang Bo’an’s progress in his heart.
Based on his understanding and Wang Bo’an’s shown talent, he should have at least reached the Spirit Realm Sixth Level…
……
“Brother Yu, where do you think our superior, Bo’an, has reached in his cultivation?” Qi Yuanjing asked with a smile.
Qi Yuanjing was appointed a Commanding Officer for this expeditionary force. He was a genuine military hero of Great Ming, with ancestors who were the personal bodyguards of the first emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty. Although they died in battle, they left a legacy, bestowing the hereditary military position of ‘Mingwei General’ on their descendants.
Despite the countless military homes with such legacies in the six hundred year old Great Ming Empire, many have declined. But the Qi family began to rise again in his father’s era and was the Emperor’s most trusted. His father is still serving in Tiandu as the Vice General of the Shenji Battalion.
Being able to serve as a Vice General in one of the three major battalions, the Shenji Battalion, indicates the significance of the Qi family. Qi Yuanjing also became a Commanding Officer at a young age and had control over several Thousands of Households units.
He and Yu Xunya, who had a similar background, were close in age and cultivation and were both admired by Wang Bo’an. They were quite close to one another.
Although drinking was forbidden in the military, the two of them were chatting while drinking tea.
The ‘superior’ Qi Yuanjing referred to was their superior, the commander Wang Bo’an.
They both greatly admired their superior and were also extremely curious about how far he’d come in his cultivation.
“He must’ve reached at least the Spirit Realm Sixth Level.” Yu Xunya said slowly while putting a piece of meat into his mouth with a dagger.
He and Qi Yuanjing were at almost the same level, they had just reached the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm not long ago. They depended on the help of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty and found it would be hard to progress further in a short period. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Their understanding made them realize how difficult it was to advance within the Nine Realms of Spirits, it was genuinely hard.
Knowing that their combat with the Demon Race was coming up, these commanding officers, besides their commanding talent, also needed enough power to handle various dangers.
“Do you think there’s a chance that our superior has already broken through to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm?” Qi Yuanjing cut a piece of meat with his dagger and asked casually.
