It's just that the time was too long back then, and the truth of the facts has been obliterated in the long river of time, and it is no longer known.

For Qianye, it was enough to confirm that Nangong Xiaoniao was Nangong Yuqing's descendant, and he could finally fulfill the entrustment of the Black Wing King.

"Little Bird, these things are for you." With that said, Qianye took out two boxes, put them on the table, and pushed them in front of Nangong Xiaoniao.

"This is, you gave me a gift?" Nangong Xiaoniao opened the first box, and suddenly exclaimed: "Level 7 gun!!"

The gift An Duya left to Nangong Yuqing is naturally a high-quality gift in its class. In terms of quality alone, it is as good as Zhao Jundu's blue sky. However, such a gun is obviously too advanced for Nangong Xiaoniao, and it is not something that a rookie like her who is not even a general can use. Don't talk about self-defense and killing the enemy, even firing a single shot can drain her force, and she can't afford serious injuries.

Nangong Xiaoniao, who was born in Red Scorpion, naturally understood this truth, so after the initial surprise, she was embarrassed. Facing a good gun and being unable to use it is the most painful moment for every soldier.

She casually opened the second box, and inside were two six-level short swords. Just looking at the force arrays that seemed to flow with brilliance on the blades, she knew that they were good things. Unfortunately, at Nangong Xiaoniao's current level, they were also unable to play their role. .

"Don't worry, there are still some." Qianye avoided the source of these weapons and the topic of whether Nangong Xiaoniao could use them, and placed two boxes on the table. This time there are two gold boxes, which are used to encapsulate high-grade materials.

Nangong Xiaoniao's hands trembled slightly, and she opened the lids one by one, with another low cry.

As a genius of mechanical structure, she can tell at a glance that the box of full mithril original force physical ammunition has special craftsmanship, and it may be specially designed for the seventh-level gun. If she uses it to study it, her own firearms manufacturing Ability can be improved to a higher level.

In addition, a box full of liquid Mithril has always been a hard currency for bartering in the high-end material market, and its value is enough to buy Dark Fire. Nangong Xiaoniao is very familiar with this aspect of going to the market, and immediately converted a bunch of raw materials for the production of top-level firearms and force arrays according to the black market price. Adding them together, even if a little wasted, you can still create a level 8 sniper shot.

Among the force guns, if they are of the same level, the larger the size, the more materials they will consume. Machine guns are the only ones that can consume more than sniper rifles. However, among the top-level force guns, there are very few machine guns, and the reason is very simple. Few people's force is deep enough to drive the force machine gun.

Nangong Xiaoniao raised her head and asked, "Do you want me to build a level eight gun?"

"A tier-8 gun? Of course not. These things are also for you. Even if you make a tier-8 gun, that's for your use."

"I... mine?" Nangong Xiaoniao opened her mouth wide and didn't know what to say.

"It's yours." Qianye emphasized.

"But… "

"It's nothing but, all these things belong to you, as for the others, you don't have to worry about them." Before Qianye came to find Nangong Xiaoniao, he thought about it over and over again, thinking that it's better not to tell her the origin of these things for the time being.

The identity of the Black Wing Monarch is too sensitive, no matter which camp he is in Yongye or Liming, it is enough to attract the attention of the big shots. Now Nangong Xiaoniao is unable to protect himself at all, and Qianye has no ability to protect her.

Nangong Xiaoniao always nodded obediently to Qianye's words, and this time was no exception.

Qianye thought for a while, and then carefully instructed: "Try not to let people see these things. If you need to change any materials, ask Song Hu to do it through several channels."

Nangong Xiaoniao agreed, and Qianye felt relieved. She is now living in Heiliu, and this place has basically become Qianye's private domain. Even if there is any order from the expeditionary army headquarters, it must be discussed. Under Song Zining's painstaking management, the dark fire after the bloody Iron Curtain was dominated by one family in Sanhe County. No matter who wanted to reach out, he had to weigh the loss.

Before leaving, Qianye still felt a little uneasy, and asked one more question: "When you were in the Red Scorpion or Nangong Family, did anyone mention your background or bloodline?"

"No, what's the matter?" Nangong Xiaoniao looked confused.

"It's nothing, it's fine if you don't have one." Qianye said a few more words before returning home.

But he was always a little restless, and he didn't even have a good dinner. Yetong saw it and asked, "Anything on your mind?"

Qianye nodded and said, "I always feel that this matter is not that simple. For example, why did Nangong Yuanbo disregard his identity back then, for example, why did the people behind the Red Scorpion Legion treat Xiaoniao differently? In addition, The bird's talent in machinery and force arrays is a bit terrifying, and it's hard to explain it with normal reasons."

Yetong smiled slightly and said, "You think too much, the blood on the little bird is already very thin, and I was the only one who discovered it. You have been with her for so long, don't you feel nothing? Besides, the Black Wing King Your bloodline is not only powerful, but also ever-changing. Take the ability of bloodline lurking as an example, there will always be some performance. When I first met you, I was still bleeding, and you didn't realize that I was a bloodline. "

"I hope so." Qianye sighed, a shadow still lingering in his heart.

Qianye was not able to stay in Heiliu City for a long time. According to the news that Song Zining kept sending, the empire should have been secretly mobilized among elite legions, powerful families, and high-ranking families. The family of the middle and lower grades finally turned into a full-scale mobilization.

After several battles, although Qianye's accumulated military achievements have not been conferred a knighthood, his rank has been promoted to brigadier general, and he will be within the scope of the second batch of mobilization at the latest. So he seized the time, besides spending more time with Yetong, he reorganized the dark fire, trained personnel, and arranged defenses.

The current territory of the Heiliu City Defense Zone has expanded westward by nearly ten times, and it is almost the size of a complete county. Including the werewolf Viscount Bruce and his tribe.

Although the werewolves secretly surrendered to Qianye, they still couldn't openly appear in the human-occupied area, otherwise hunters and mercenaries would swarm to them like sharks smelling blood.

The trouble is, most of this land was originally the territory of Earl Stuka the Nerubian, which meant that few human races lived on this land, except for slaves and human races raised as rations.

But there are also advantages, that is, the land is quite rich in mineral resources, and it seems that there are still many good things that have not been discovered. At least according to Zhao Yuying's original judgment, it is very likely that there is a precious crystal iron vein hidden under this land.

It's just that the war has just subsided, and what Qianye has to do now is to consolidate the defense of this land, build a few strategic points that Song Zining has found into fortresses, and station troops, so that the vast war zone can be digested slowly. As for mining, it can only be put in the back for the time being. Anyway, Dark Fire has made great achievements, and the military rewards from the empire alone will be enough for the military expenditure in the coming year.

As the central base of the entire region, Heiliu City also needs to be expanded. This is Song Zining's specialty, so before Qi Shao returned to the empire, he had already left behind a detailed plan for the expansion of Heiliu City.

This plan will double the urban area of Heiliu City, enough to accommodate 200,000 permanent residents. The defense system was planned by Nangong Xiaoniao. She gave up the traditional model of sticking to the city wall, and established a defense system that uses fortress guns as the fulcrum, can move quickly, and has powerful firepower defenders.

Needless to say the benefits of this defense, but the disadvantage is also quite obvious, that is, it costs money. The establishment and maintenance of powerful mobile firepower requires a lot of money, and this level of military expenditure is simply unaffordable for ordinary expeditionary forces. There is a famous saying in the expeditionary force: "A shell is more expensive than a human life."

Only with the support of Song Zining's Ningyuan Group, as well as the large number of military merit awards laid down by Qianye and others, can Heiliu City and Dark Fire maintain such a luxurious defense system.

However, everything has both pros and cons. Such an expensive military expenditure brings an unexpected benefit. Those mercenaries and hunters are all knowledgeable. After seeing the defense of Heiliu City, many mercenary groups and hunter groups intend to set up the base Moved to the black stream.

It is precisely because of this that Heiliu City has become more prosperous day by day, and the income on Dark Fire's account is also increasing. Those mercenary hunters who don't know where they will die tomorrow are not so happy to spend money.

All in all, although the current Heiliu City is still full of scars left by the war, it is already flourishing, and even some veteran Yongye indigenous residents privately began to compare it with the Millennium Fortified City, Dark Blood City, and it won’t be long. , a newborn black stream will appear in front of Qianye. It's just that by that time, Qianye should already be on another battlefield.

In addition to normal development, Qianye also discovered that Song Zining had left behind some strange arrangements. The Seventh Young Master of the Song Dynasty gathered many veterans who had followed Qianye for a long time, and equipped him with a luxurious lineup of officers, including Duan Hao, Ah Qi, and Ah Jiu.

This army is small in scale, has outstanding combat power, and is extremely well-equipped. It has already surpassed the main army of the empire. Song Zining even prepared two airships specially for this unit. Although they were a bit old, they could still send them hundreds of kilometers away in one day.

Such a team is somewhat similar to the elite legion in the imperial army system, Qianye has always been a little puzzled about its purpose. At least for now, the Heiliu, who is eager to digest the sudden expansion of its territory by ten times, does not need this kind of force that is more suitable for undertaking elite assault missions. And from the point of view of staffing, this army is absolutely loyal to Qianye and Song Zining, more like a gendarme for internal suppression.

Qianye felt that he was far behind Song Zining in terms of leading troops and training, so there must be deep meaning behind such a setup. So after he had seen the roster and equipment of this army, he stopped asking more questions.

The next few days will be spent in such a simple and busy life. After taking over the current dark fire and black current, Qianye realized how insignificant the mercenary group affairs that he thought were busy in the past were so insignificant. Now there are more than a hundred documents on his desk every day, and it takes more than half a day just to read each page carefully, let alone make a decision.

After only a few days of work, Qianye felt extremely overwhelmed, and admired Song Zining who could handle everything in an orderly manner. What he couldn't figure out was that this seventh young master didn't waste time hanging out with women, and often wrote and painted artfully. How could he still have time to finish all these trivial things
