The young general, who should have been at his checkpoint, was instead on the city wall, speaking to a fat man trapped in a chair.

This fat man was obese, with a mild expression. Just by looking at his appearance, there was no sign of majesty whatsoever.

But the soldiers guarding the city wall stood at attention, their demeanor cold and rigid. Yet, he sat alone, naturally exuding an air of aloof superiority.

This is a test. Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate.

"That's it. To dare to touch the resources of Chong Xuan Sheng, I will strip him bare!" The fat man said fiercely.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

"What about the rest of the Sihai Merchant Alliance" the young general asked. "Are they following precedent"

“All Qiren will be detained for inspection to ensure they are free of plague before being allowed back home. Foreigners are strictly prohibited from leaving the country, and any who attempt to cross the border will be killed without mercy! As for members of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance... regardless of their nationality, all their money and goods will be confiscated, and they will all be detained.”

Chong Xuan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is there anything unclear about my uncle's military order"

Here is your translated text:

His uncle, naturally, was Chong Xuan Chulian, a man known for his brutality.

It was also this time that the highest-ranking general who led the Qiu Sha Army arrived.

This military order, before the terms of execution were specified, had no limitations.

That is to say, not only are people from weak countries like Yang and Rong forbidden from entering, but anyone residing in Yang, regardless of their origin – even those from powerful nations like Jing, Chu, Qin, or Mu – will also be excluded.

This is the domineering force of Qi as the overlord of the East, and also Chong Xuan Chu Liang's unabashed killing intent.

He is a completely different person in his normal state and when leading an army.

"Very clear!" the young general stated immediately.

Then go.

Behind Chongxuan Sheng stood Shi Fourteen, clad in full armor.

Compared to Chongxuan Sheng, who wears wide robes and sleeves like a close-fitting battle suit, Fourteenth's temperament fits in better with this county town on the border.

No matter what Chongxuansheng said to Shi Fourteen, she remained as silent as ever. Chongxuansheng didn't mind this at all.

"I came so suddenly, do you think Jiang Wang would mind"

Before Fourteen could answer, he continued, "To harbor resentment is human nature. I hope Mr. Qian gets his frustrations out."

If Qian Shi learned that he had been repeatedly thwarted and couldn't escape, despite receiving advance warnings, all because of Zhong Xuan Sheng's secret manipulation, he wouldn't know if he would regret his extortion in Qingyang Town.

Maybe, maybe not, but it doesn't matter anyway.

Because there's no such thing as a regret pill!

Zhong Xuan Sheng stood on the tower, looking out at the distance. He couldn't help but say: "To still use my uncle's name to suppress the army makes me very uncomfortable."

>

He carries many worries in his heart at all times, thinking too much, and his body is increasingly reluctant to move.

Such a massive physique, once it moved, had to be worth the effort put in.

“I'm too fat, that's why.”

Zhong Xuan stood up, leaning on the handrail, at the head of this Bai Chuan City.

“This chair... is too small!”

Qingyang Town.

Jiang Wang gathered all the people in the town into the town center, and for a time, it was overcrowded.

He confiscated all the supplies and implemented a rationing system, limiting each person's portion to ensure everyone had enough to eat.

No one understood his decision. To everyone else, the only way to combat the plague was to isolate the inside from the outside and halt the transmission. Even though the plague had mutated and become more dangerous, the core principles of dealing with it shouldn't have changed.

Qingyang Town has always done things this way.

Suddenly changing tactics and gathering people together was undoubtedly a risky decision. Even though the Qingyang Town region was now almost entirely under control of the plague.

But in Jiang Wang's view, the plague harming extraordinary cultivators meant that the only force capable of directly confronting the plague had been lost. Before a new alternative method emerged, the situation's collapse was almost inevitable.

In some extreme situations, humans can be more terrifying than the plague!

Those situations Jiang Wang didn't want to imagine, but couldn't deny their existence.

At the end of the day, his actions weren't about combating the plague after its transformation, but...about combating the potential riots that could erupt after a collapse in order.

In the Illusory Realm of Emptiness, Chong Xuan Sheng remained silent. Jiang Wang speculated that this was likely related to the military secrets he had mentioned before. However, now that he was in Yang Guo, he couldn't fathom who Qi Guo's military might was directed at, nor could he discern Chong Xuan Sheng's role within it all.

But there is no doubt that the Zhu Xianzun he has never met has put immense pressure on Chongxuan Sheng. To such an extent, this fat man has never dared to relax, even today when he has the qualification to gamble with others, he often walks on eggshells.

Jiang Wang could only do his best, both to strengthen his own abilities and to bolster his influence. He couldn't concern himself with anything else for now; there was nothing he could do about it.

At this time, he was still unaware that the massive army of the State of Qi had encircled the State of Yang. With the might of the State of Qi, it could easily cut off all contact between inside and outside of the State of Yang, leaving its people blind, deaf, and mute.

Needless to say, since Qi State had been a vassal of Yang State for many years, Yang State had always taken Qi State lightly and made no preparations against it. To prepare defenses would be to harbor ulterior motives, which Yang State dared not do.

Therefore, the sudden and well-executed military campaign by Qi State against the besieged Lock Yang State was so unexpected.

Of course, at this moment, Jiang Wang believed that the State of Yang would eventually receive aid from the State of Qi. After all, the State of Yang was a vassal state of the State of Qi, and in a sense, it represented the face of the State of Qi. The State of Qi could not simply ignore it.

>

All he has done so far in preparation is to hold out until Qi's reinforcements arrive.

Based on his interactions with numerous officials in Yang Guo, the entire bureaucracy of Yang Guo seems to lack ambition and suffers from blind arrogance.

There was a hegemonious country nearby, leaving them with no room for expansion. Those who lacked ambition, represented by the city lord of Yecheng, could even be said to be simply occupying their positions without any real effort.

And the arrogance lies in this: officials like Yang Gu, represented by the magistrate of Rizhao County, proudly identify as belonging to Qi State. They take pride in Qi State's glory as their own, and consider Qi State's strength as their own. They are all, in spirit, citizens of Qi.

At least based on what Jiang Wang had heard and seen, he didn't believe that the Yang Kingdom would perform well in the face of this plague. At least there was a high chance that Rizhao County would collapse.

Although he speculated thus, Jiang Wang was unable to save the entire Rizhao County. A town like Qingyang was already his current limit.

Even Qingyang Town, he didn't have complete confidence that he could keep it safe.

But once he secured it, he could leverage the foundation of Qingyang Town to maximize his and Chong Xuan Sheng's gains.

Imagine a collapsed Yangguo, a nation in ruins, rebuilding itself from the ashes. How many opportunities lie within such devastation

No matter how powerful external forces are, or how many people covet this place, no one can surpass the innate advantages of Qingyang Town.

The premise of everything hinges on whether Qingyang Town can become the unyielding banner amidst the ruins.

These things were entirely Jiang Wang's independent thinking.

From the State of Zhuang to the State of Yun, then to the Heavenly Protected Nation, and finally to the State of Qi and now the State of Yang, everything he saw left him confused and lost. He constantly pondered the meaning of a nation and the power of its systems.

Now I have some ideas, though they may not be fully developed yet, they are already very clear.eces of the Jiuzhang Jade Bi, he should get seven pieces. If there are eight pieces, he should get eight pieces.Only then would he live up to his name, Dou Zhao, and be worthy of the Heavenly Blazing...
