I.. Am God?

Duke Verimont answered that he will send an envoy to check them, reaching halfway through Cane and Matthias' goal of establishing ties with the Dukedom of Verimont.

Qinshan Commerce also formed itself with the help of the people of the Gongsun Faction and some of the Commoner Faction that wanted to slowly get into contact with their new Emperor's men.

With the resources that the allies gave, Matthias arranged 10 mu of land for farming and another ten for orchards.

Quarries were also constructed on mountains that were examined by experts in the mining industries and were assured by Matthias. Men were recruited to excavate and mine.

The skeletons of academies and schools slowly formed and the Ministry of Education that Matthias established already started hiring teachers.

Jobs of all types started to appear across Qin. The dynasty's economy started to slowly crank up its gears.

The army of the Yuan Empire is also nearing. With Black and the Order's sneak assaults, Yuan's 900,000 men army went down to a number of 750,000 men. Although it wasn't much, the lesser, the better. A 150,000-men decrease could influence a lot when it comes to the battlefield.

On the 20th day, Matthias rode on Typhoon, his pet Light Draconic Griffin from the Spirit Realm at the time when he became a Tamer, on his way to the City of Silturk, the next city to be besieged by Guan Shaoming's army.

When he arrived, he was welcomed by his million-men army. Banners of the Qin Dynasty, a sanguine-colored Coiling Dragon with a black background, were fluttering with the wind.

The men that were once farmers, vendors, homeless, ex-convicts, commoners, and lowly guards became disciplined, strong, stout, and powerful soldiers of Qin. They stood in a straight formation, surrounding the sides of the roads, holding their banners of war. They were donned in full body armor coated in bronze, and their dagger-axes stood firm. With a tang sword on their waist and a dagger with it, they are still fully armed whenever their dagger-axes break.

Behind the rows of soldiers were Qin's source of pride since their inception; Their Qin Crossbows. When all of it is loaded, expect 600,000 arrow bolts that could puncture a 20-inch wall of a Titanium Vault to rain down on the enemy and destroy their lines.

Even behind those crossbowmen are the artilleries of Qin; Trebuchets, Catapults, and Shinanhai, a tower-like weapon that uses spirit energy to release strong waves of pressure and force towards the enemy.

The walls were also reinforced with Immortal Territory Runes that strengthened the materials of the walls to make it thicker and harder.

There were also the evacuating civilians of Silturk. With the help of the volunteering soldiers, they were organised and in order.

When the army saw Matthias, they stood straight and placed their fists on their chests and knelt, "Greetings, Your Majesty Highest Grand General!" The soldiers shouted simultaneously.

Matthias waved his hand down as an answer.

Cane, who was behind Matthias, looked at the organized army with a smile.

Behind Matthias and Cane were 20,000 men on their Black Dragon Horses. Their armor was as black as their steed, and their cape featured a red Coiling Dragon slithering up. In front of their armor was the face of a horse, and their helmets were designed like a kabuto.

They held their guandao blade down as their steeds trotted on their way inside the city.

This was Qin's new regiment; The Qin Harvesters. It sounded lame, but it is their purpose in the battlefield. They shall harvest the heads and lives and feet of their enemies. They were made to destroy enemy lines.

Matthias trained them using his powers as a god. He created a secret realm and sent his future soldiers there. It was a literal hellhole.

It was just like Matheon's Endless Hell, but the demons were a copy of the soldiers and they knew formations and teamwork.

The soldiers of Qin saw their clones being organized and strong while they themselves only knew the basics.

Some broke down while others became worked up. Those who broke down were healed mentally by the secret realm and the men who were worked up fought and also learned their formations.

The Qin Harvesters were the hardest ones that passed the secret realm. They were sent to another part of the secret realm where the Black Dragon Horses were. They chose their steeds and trained for years inside the secret realms, hacking and slashing using their blades, arranging their formations, and countering anti-cavalry formations.

"Y-Your Majesty, where did this army come from?" A general that was assigned to the Silturk City Battlefield gulped as he looked at the army behind him.

Looking at them, even the trained men of the Gongsun Faction were nervous.

They were filled with a murderous, cold-blooded, and basically a terrifying aura that could make anyone piss themselves.

Matthias smiled as he looked at them. It was natural to feel frightened with the Harvesters' aura. They slaughtered armies after armies, died and got rebirth, and slaughtered once more. Their aura was filled with blood and death.

"At ease." Matthias said to his shivering army, "The Qin Harvesters are soldiers and citizens of Qin, trained to destroy our enemies!"

"As expected of Your Majesty!"

"His Majesty solved our predicament?"

The soldiers of Qin were amazed.

Suddenly…

"TUN!!"

A loud trumpet resounded beyond the southern gate of the city.

Hearing that, Matthias went solemn, "The rebels have come."

The generals were also alerted, "Men! Defend the city!"

With that order, the Qin soldiers inside Silturk City went into their respective positions.

Matthias raised his hand and waved it down slightly, signaling the cavalry to go forward.

He then lightly tapped Typhoon. Typhoon screeched and galloped. Behind them, the Black Dragon Horses also galloped towards the Southern Gate.

Following them were the soldiers of Qin wielding their dagger-axes.

The crossbowmen positioned themselves up on the walls and aimed at their enemies.

Matthias then shouted at the generals who were also preparing, "Sound the horns!"

,m "Yes, Your Majesty!" The generals bowed and signaled their men.

Those men then raised their banners and waved them.

The men atop the city towers then sounded the gongs and the horns, symbolizing Silturk City's preparation for war.
