With Qianye's order, the entire dark fire immediately ran at full speed.
After a while, the heads of various departments of the mercenary group and generals gathered in the command room. Qianye sat high on the throne, looking at the room full of people, he felt a kind of satisfied joy.
Those who are qualified to enter the command room, except for the heads of various departments, must be generals. In the past, the number of chief officers of the Dark Fire logistics department exceeded that of front-line commanders and generals, and there were few of them sitting in the large command room. But now, as Qianye looked around, most of them were generals, and their auras were stirring with each other, so that the faces of those civilian chiefs who were one level behind in combat power were all pale, and they were weak like they might faint at any time.
The generals naturally discovered this, but they not only did not hold back, but also released their breath as if showing off, like a peacock in heat, trying to suppress the rival in love.
Compared with the past, the number of generals in the conference room has more than doubled. Looking around, there are close to thirty generals, and they are no small forces anywhere.
Most of the newly added generals are survivors of the Battle of Baicheng. During the period when Qianye went to the Northland to practice, they were not idle. The materials of the force vortex, each of which has been accumulated to the point where it is possible to impact the generals, will eventually successfully condense the force vortex. At its peak, three people became generals in one day.
In addition to the Baicheng mercenaries, there were two recently recruited generals in the conference room, and they all came here with their own small mercenary regiments. According to the rules set by Song Zining, as soon as these people came, the troops would be reorganized and dispersed into various troops.
Seeing that the dark fire was so powerful, the two generals didn't dare to say anything, and accepted the reorganization obediently.
The compilation went so smoothly, without a trace of backlash, even for high-ranking and influential figures such as the Zhao Clan, I'm afraid it's rare. Of course, many of the mercenary generals in the meeting room had already exhausted their potential when they broke through to war generals, and their majors in martial arts were not enough to allow them to break through the limit of their potential, let alone the precise design of supporting equipment, combat skills and even Comrades who can support each other. In terms of actual combat power, ten Zhao faction generals assembled can completely defeat ten mercenary generals.
However, in a neutral place, it was already an unprecedented event. What can be compared with the dark fire at this moment is probably only a few forces such as the Blood Throne and the Heavenly King's Mansion.
Thinking of the Heavenly King's Mansion, Qianye's heart skipped a beat before he remembered what he had overlooked. After so many days, those old "friends" seemed to have disappeared, and he almost forgot them.
But he put this matter aside first, looked around at the generals, and said: "After the first battle in Baicheng, many old brothers have grown up, which is very good! You have expected that I will lead you to lay a new world. So now is the opportunity, Zheng’s civil turmoil, we need to send troops to help them stabilize the situation. Do you have any ideas?”
A general scratched his head, and asked in embarrassment: "Where is Zheng Guo? Besides, although they are in civil turmoil, it seems that they have nothing to do with us, right? Some... are born without a name!"
Everyone is not stupid. The so-called sending troops to stabilize the situation is the same as saying that you want to help maintain order in a certain big city on a neutral ground, but you have to use a name to cover it up, right? Of course, it is not impossible to eat hard, it is easy to become a target of public criticism.
Qianye smiled slightly, and said: "Where is Zheng Guo? Recite all the information. As for the question of the teacher who is unknown, so many princes in Zheng Guo want to be superior. Pick a weak point from among them and ask him to come forward and invite us to settle in, won’t it be enough?”
The generals felt that they were reasonable and nodded their heads desperately. At the same time, many of them also looked bitter. Letting them go into battle to kill the enemy is a no-brainer, but memorizing information will really kill them.
Qianye didn't care about this, so he waved his hand to dismiss the meeting, and checked randomly tomorrow morning. If anyone couldn't recite it, he would be locked up in a dark room and dedicated to memorizing it until he could recite it.
The scale of Dark Fire is not small at the moment, and the expansion of the army has just been completed. In fact, the preparation of a large army for war cannot be completed in a day or two. During this time, it is just time to make a more detailed plan. Qianye is going to lead the elite army that has just been formed according to the standard of the Red Scorpion to fight first, and then transfer three divisions to follow up. The main duties of these three divisions are not actually fighting, but occupying territory and maintaining law and order.
The mobilization work was done by the people below, while Qianye himself started other preparations, at least a little bit, and needed to break up with the Heavenly King's Mansion.
Qin Lu, the imperial capital, everyone has been in a hurry these days, and an invisible tense atmosphere hangs over everyone's heart.
Since the Battle of the Floating Continent, strange scenes have often appeared in the imperial capital. Most of the ordinary people living in the imperial capital and at the foot of the emperor have some relatives and friends who have been working in some key departments, so all kinds of rumors and rumors continue to spread. In large and small taverns and restaurants, when the wine is hot, there are always people who tell the secrets of the heavenly kings and generals vividly, as if they saw it with their own eyes.
Now that the news of the great victory came, everyone was excited at the beginning, but those who are really in important positions know more or less the inside story.
This battle was a miserable victory.
In this battle of national destiny, the imperial family can be said to have done their best. Even Princess Haimi, who had lived in seclusion for many years, led the battle, and even talented princes and daughters like the Fourteenth Prince and the Nineteenth Princess died in battle. battlefield. In particular, the death of the fourteenth prince directly affected the pattern of candidates for the crown prince.
Fortunately, Emperor Hao swept away the past and hid, and gradually showed his edge. Judging from his current momentum, the matter of being the crown prince is still far away.
But the aftermath of the fall of the Longevity King is the real big deal. After his death, in response to the bloody funeral, Emperor Hao took control of the imperial capital and the core area of Qin Lu by means of thunder, but that was only a stopgap measure. It is not easy to completely uproot the Changshengwang lineage. This imperial family and heavenly king has been in business for more than a hundred years, and is intertwined in many fields. In addition, the various bloodlines of the royal family are entangled, and they are related by marriage to almost all the powerful and upper-middle-rank families in the empire. This clean-up is bound to take years.
For some high-ranking people, Lin Xitang's disappearance is another important matter. It is no secret that Lin Xitang suddenly appeared in Fulu, took action to kill the prime minister, and rearranged the battle situation. And the few real Ge Kui in the court began to weave charges against the right ministers, which also let the people around them see the direction of the wind early, so that they would not do stupid things.
After that, Lin Xitang went out to fight against the void, and there was no news about it. Emperor Hao refused to admit that Lin Xitang had died in battle, and only thought that he was missing. Someone reported the news from Yongye's interior, and he was furious, demoting that person three levels in a row. None of the important ministers came forward to remonstrate, and all of them kept silent by coincidence. On the surface, they did not want to offend Longyan, but in fact, they either experienced the battle of Fulu personally, or had detailed information in their hands, and they were extremely emotional towards this emperor teacher. complex.
What's more, the news from Yongye's side is similar to no news, just a result, without process details. This matter is also very strange in the Yongye camp. Blood Prince Habs didn't go to the council to report on his duties at all, and returned directly to the castle to close the door and refuse visitors. It is said that he was seriously injured and lay in the ancient blood pool. Not to mention the dignitaries of the other races on the Eternal Night Fleet, no one dared to say more, the Demon Emperor was there at the time, and the nonsense was that he lived for too long
As a result, the court never mentioned anything about the emperor's teacher. But experienced generals know that there is little luck in that situation, and nine out of ten Lin Xitang has already fallen.
After Lin Xitang left, many people really realized his importance. No matter how many major events in the empire have passed through his hands, they are all handled with ease. When it was time to take over, I realized that it was far from that simple. He is like the beam and pillar of the house, usually placed there, people coming and going will not pay special attention to it, but once it is lost, it makes people suddenly become uneasy, as if something will fall on the head at any time.
During this period of time, the court was going up and down, everyone was so busy that the speed of driving on the street was almost ten percent faster.
In the Imperial Army, Song Zining was discussing matters with several generals, and they joked with each other from time to time, showing that they were very familiar. These generals were all Zhang Boqian's direct descendants, they had worked with Song Zining for a period of time, and they had a good relationship with each other. After Zhang Boqian resigned as Marshal as usual, they will transfer to the military department. At this moment, they are discussing with Song Zining about the allocation of a batch of military equipment.
At this moment, Song Zining's relatives walked in, whispered something in Song Zining's ear. Song Zining's expression changed when he heard it. He was calm at first, then changed color, then was shocked, and finally became very weird. He seemed to want to laugh, but he reluctantly held back.
"Qi Shao, why are you so happy?" Someone asked right away. Most of them still used the old address for each other, even though Song Zining had cut off from the Song Clan again, these people were still used to Qi Shao.
Hearing this question, Song Zining smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that idiot Qianye suddenly started to become smarter."
The name Qianye was originally taboo in the military, but it was different after the Battle of Fulu. Originally, many militant young generals in the military headquarters and many generals who were fighting on the front line had a good impression of Qianye, but they were quite contemptuous of Li Fengshui's methods. Up to now, although Qianye's identity is still taboo in the military, it has changed in a different way, and no one mentions his blood identity.
Hearing what Song Zining said, several generals looked at each other, and the youngest one smiled wryly, "Lord Qianye, I'm afraid you're not an idiot, are you?"
Song Zining said lightly, "Since when was he ever smart?"
The young general let out a long breath, and said, "Seventh Young Master dares to say that! In front of Lord Qianye, I feel like I can't breathe."
After the Battle of Baicheng, these generals participated in the handover and the aftermath. They all met Qianye, and they all felt the same way, and nodded one after another.
Song Zining laughed, and said, "Don't be so nervous, Qianye is a nice person, oh, I mean, he's easy to bully."
"Who dares to bully Master Qianye? Are you impatient?" The general expressed the feelings of everyone.
Song Zining laughed, and stopped talking about this topic, but returned to the discussion on military supplies.
Outside Tingchao City, a huge shadow swept across the ground and flew towards the ancient totem battle fort. I heard that some people in Chaocheng had already noticed the phenomenon, and they climbed up to the heights one after another, watching the huge monster in the sky flickering and disappearing in the clouds.
The ancient totem battle castle sounded the alarm early on, and all the crossbows on the fort were raised, aiming at the approaching giant beast. The crossbowmen stared at the dragon ship in the front sight, their palms sweating layer by layer.
"Steady, everyone! No one is allowed to shoot without an order!" The officers shouted hoarsely, lest someone accidentally step on the firing pedal of the ballista.
The powerhouses with sharp eyesight have already seen that what is flying slowly is not a giant void beast, but has obvious traces of artificial creation. This is even more shocking. They never imagined that there would be such a floating ship in the world.
An old werewolf stared at the dragon ship for a long time, and suddenly lost his voice: "Hall of Valor! Go and inform the chief!"
The Wolf King's voice sounded behind him, "No, I've already seen it."
A group of werewolf powerhouses turned their heads one after another, and when they saw the wolf king appear behind him at some point, they hurriedly saluted.
The Wolf King narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the Hall of Valor, and said after a while: "Everyone relax. Wait for Qianye to come down, and bring him to see me."
After all, he went straight back to the main building of the castle, never looking at the Hall of Valor again.
