After Wu Zhidong came to Yantaiguan and took up command, except for the craftsman camp and the guard camp, which were still Chen Hai's private guards, the other generals and soldiers in Beiling fortress were registered and naturalized. Now the craftsman camp has a scale of 3,000 people. They will all move to Tianying City with Jiang Yuwei - Jiang Ze is accepted by Jiang Jin as his direct disciple. The middle and low-level military attachés stationed in Beiling Fortress will be recommended and selected from among the inner and outer disciples of Wanxian Mountain and Yuanyang Sect. Chen Hai is completely surrounded by Of the personal guards under his control, there was actually a guard camp of a thousand people left.
If he hadn't also known about Chen Hai's dual identity as a human and a demon, Sha Tianhe would have been confused at this time as to why Jiang Yuwei could still stand so firmly on Chen Hai's side.
Sha Tianhe guessed that Chen Hai might let him go to Tianying City soon.
Sha Tianhe himself also thought about going to Tianying City, thinking that he might be able to really find the feeling of "home" there. On the one hand, Beiling Fortress was too close to the battlefield, and on the other hand, there was a possibility of being handed over by a transfer order at any time. , you can never feel like you are doing business in a down-to-earth manner.
Lu Shaoshang also came from a poor family. After greeting his master, he took out a letter from his pocket and gave it to Chen Hai, saying: "I came here in a hurry this time and did not come to see you in advance. Master asked me to send this letter to you." A letter for you."
However, the Dongdu Jiang family is indeed a descendant of Jiang Jin. At this time, Jiang Jin asked the Dongdu Jiang family to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. For most of the children of the Dongdu Jiang family, it was an unspeakable feeling. Jiang Zhen couldn't refuse, Jiang Yin couldn't refuse, and Chen Hai, as an "outsider", was not qualified to make irresponsible remarks.
If it completely overlaps, for those peerless experts in the three realms of heaven who have practiced for tens of thousands of years, the direct bloodline inheritance will last for one or two thousand generations. If they are all recognized as direct branches, the number of direct descendants will be one Extremely scary data.
However, the identification of the Jiang family's main sect or direct branch does not completely coincide with the inheritance of blood.
Lu Shaoshang was born in a poor family. He cultivated in the middle stage of Taoism. He was very accomplished in weapon refining. He was able to enter Jiang Yin's sect to practice. He was one of the seven grand master-level weapon refiners in the Jade Emperor Peak Weapon Refining Institute. He originally had He is qualified to hold an important position in the Craftsmanship Department under the jurisdiction of Zhuguo General Mansion.
In addition to more than 10,000 craftsmen, the Craftsmanship Department has a lot of property, large and small, including sixty or seventy large and small furnaces.
Jiang Jin enlisted Jiang Zhen to pry open the walls of Tianying City. Jiang Yin really had no reason to directly block it, but Jiang Yin sent Lu Shaoshang to serve as Chen Hai's deputy and the master craftsman of Yantai Pass Craftsmanship Department, that is, The chief craftsman is also a firm supporter of Chen Hai.
The demon soldiers on Tiancheng Mountain have also begun to gather on a large scale. I believe that Xuanyuan Shangdian will speed up the recruitment of troops and horses from Yongjing and other places. The war in Tianluo Valley will become more intense day by day. Chen Hai doesn't know What will be the final outcome? Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen did not take it seriously at this time. He said to Jiang Yuwei: "It's okay. You just came here. Maybe you don't know some things. After five years of running in, , Wu Zhidong has completely lost patience with the Craftsmanship Department at Yantaiguan, and has just decided that I should also lead the Craftsmanship Department, and also move the Craftsmanship Department to Beiling fortress. Before you came here, I was considering going to Yantai Pass Guan met the garrison general and discussed the move of the Craftsmanship Department to the north... Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen transferred manpower from Tianying City, which should not affect the supply of ordnance to Yantai Pass. Jiang Jin probably borrowed so many people for his own reason. Strengthening the Jiang Clan's sect's casting of heavy-bore crossbows and other weapons is not entirely a bad thing... "
As for the Tianji Puppet Technique from which the Tianji War Machinery comes, it is not that it has not been developed and inherited in the Xingheng Domain. However, most of the disciples of the Tianji Puppet Technique inheritance in the Xingheng Domain want to refine a bottle of handed down magic like the Xuanjin Puppet. Who would think of helping civilians who have no cultivation base to refine heavenly weapons
Jiang Jin is the oldest and most senior person in the Jiang family. At this time, countless members of the Jiang family, including Jiang Yuwei, are of his bloodline, because Jiang Yuwei calls him the ancestor of the clan.
Chen Hai glanced at Qin Qian in confusion. Could it be that before he was about to take over the Craftsmanship Department, someone had inserted another important person into the Craftsmanship Department
After taking the letter that contained Jiang Yin's aura of heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, Chen Hai felt a warm current in his heart;
Although furnace smelting and craftsmen had all moved here one after another before, the office of the Craftsmanship Department arrived in Beijing only on the last day of the 23rd year of Jianxing, accompanied by Qin Qian. Lingsai or Beiling City is more suitable to join Chen Hai.
Although Chen Hai has dual identities of human and demon, he has understood the sword intention of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, so he is absolutely recognized by Jiang Yin. In addition to the Black Wind Army, Chen Hai also has more hidden resources and strength. These are not What Jiang Yin gave directly must have been approved by Jiang Yin; and the Tianji fragments that Jiang Yuwei received back then were actually written by Chen Hai. First, he could see the posture of Jiang Yuwei and Chen Hai when they were asking for advice on Tianji puppetry. Second, Chen Hai's innovation of Tianji war machines in addition to the Tianji fragments can also make Sha Tianhe confirm this point.
Sha Tianhe guessed that Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen probably misjudged Jiang Yuwei's position, so their actions seemed a little hasty, right? He looked at Chen Hai, wondering what targeted actions Chen Hai would take towards Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen's infidelity.
After all, Jiang He and Chen Hai fought side by side in Quyan Valley, and both trained under Jiang Yin's knees. Jiang Yuwei's disciple was True Monarch Yu Cang, and compared with Jiang He, there was an extra layer between him and Chen Hai.
Chen Hai's attainment of Tianji war machinery is actually far superior to that of Tianji Fragments, which is enough to prove a lot of things.
In addition to ordinary craftsmen and master craftsmen, the Craftsmanship Department also has more than 20 miscellaneous officials such as senior craftsmen, junior craftsmen, and principals.
…
At this time, the Tianji war machinery is still at a very low stage compared to the weapon refining system in the Xingheng Domain that can refine Dao weapons. The most core advantage is that it can be cast quickly and in large quantities, which is very important to the user. It can be said that there is almost no requirement for cultivation.
Chen Hai was stunned for a moment when he heard the title "junior brother".
Jiang Yinxin just chatted about some household matters, but Chen Hai still knew that the master sent Lu Shaoshang here, and he still hoped that he would be less reserved and pass on more of the secret war machine-making methods to benefit the northwest frontier army and strengthen the imperial defense. The strength of the demons, perhaps the master has also noticed something strange about the dynamics of the demons...
Chen Hai severely defeated the private soldiers of the Wu clan in Quyan Valley, until he officially became a disciple of Jiang Yin, and became a true disciple of Jade Emperor Peak of Wanxian Mountain like Jiang Yuwei. During this period, Jiang Yuwei and the others were training in the Flame Lake God Tower, and their relationship with each other was very strong. There is no direct intersection between them.
As for Tianying City, Chen Hai asked Jiang Yuwei to take control. On the one hand, Jiang Yuwei could be trusted, but also because Jiang Yuwei was the most important member of the Jiang family in the Eastern Capital and could confuse Jiang Zhen. But in fact, the actual affairs within Tianying City were , under Jiang Yuwei's arrangements over the years, they were mainly direct descendants recruited and cultivated by Chen Hai in recent years. Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen suddenly transferred a quarter of the craftsmen and craftsmen, and there were not even any particularly big ones. Influence.
From what Sha Tianhe affirmed about Chen Hai, he knew that Chen Hai had the ability to counterattack Jiang Jin and Jiang Zhen's sexual immorality at this time.
"Ah, Third Senior Brother!" Chen Hai quickly bowed to Lu Shaoshang. He did not expect that his master would assign Lu Shaoshang to him.
As the existing ancestor of the Jiang family in Dongdu, Jiang Zhen is actually the eleventh generation grandson of Jiang Jin. He is just the founder of the Jiang family in Dongdu. He is the concubine of Jiang Jin. There are eleven generations between him, so naturally he is early. He was kicked out of the Jiang clan's clan.
Although Chen Hai has too many secrets that Sha Tianhe has not been able to see through after being with Chen Hai for so many years, there are a few things that he is very sure of:
The establishment of Beiling Fortress was extremely special. Initially, the garrison was composed entirely of disciples from Beiling Valley Villa. Later, it was greatly expanded with Jiang Mingchuan's tacit approval, making the Beiling Fortress garrison have the nature of a private army. In public and private documents, Everyone is also accustomed to calling them the Black Wind Army.
In the past, Jiang Yuwei could be said to have obeyed her master's orders and stood with Chen Hai. Even the Jiang family of Dongdu at that time also chose to cooperate in depth with the Black Wind Army. However, now the Jiang family of Dongdu is completely leaning towards Jiang Jin's side. Jiang Yuwei is still firmly on the side of the Black Wind Army, which probably surprises most people, right
Jiang Yuwei stayed in Beiling for more than half a month. Chen Hai imparted some of his latest insights to her and asked her to secretly arrange for the most core craftsmen to trial-produce a six-bore crossbow and the latest type of wind flame power box.
Seeing that Chen Hai had no worries, Jiang Yuwei felt slightly less anxious.
Now that the craftsmanship camp is moved to Tianying City, the craftsmanship strength at the northern foot of Dongdu Mountain will only become stronger.
After that, Chen Hai went to Yantai Pass to serve as Army Sima, and then also took charge of Beiling Fortress. In the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between Jiang Yuwei and Chen Hai could not be closer than the relationship between Jiang He and Chen Hai.
"After these years of operation in Tianying City, there are only 12,300 skilled craftsmen and craftsmen in total. The ancestor of our sect said it was borrowing, and more than 3,000 people were taken away at once. The impact is still quite big..." Jiang Yuwei said worriedly that the current losses were acceptable, but she was actually more worried that if they were allowed to fight without any indication, Jiang Jin would take further actions against them.
Yes, in the eyes of outsiders, when Chen Hai first appeared, he was just a guest who was taken in by Jiang Yuwei after he went to Beiling fortress to lead the army; and Chen Hai had not been a guest for a few days in Beiling fortress, because Zhu Mingwei and Wei Han When the children from a poor family fell out with Jiang Han and were forced to flee into the Falling Star Sea with others, they finally helped Jiujunguo get a turn of events, and then they formed the real Black Wind Army and returned to the mainland.
After Jiang Yuwei led the craftsman camp to leave, it soon reached the 23rd year of Jianxing.
Qin Qian smiled and said, "It's really interesting. You both practiced under Lord Jiang Yinzhen, but you didn't even recognize him before. Master Chen, Lu Shaoshang is a great craftsman who was just recommended by Lord Jiang Yinzhen to join the craftsmanship department!"
Chen Hai continued: "The craftsmanship camp in Beilingsai is not in the organization sequence of Yantaiguan. Now Wu Zhidong wants to move the craftsmanship department into Beilingsai. In order to avoid confusion, the craftsmanship camp must be dismantled or dismantled. I can only move to Tianying City with you - in the future, there may be no need to continue to maintain the name of Black Wind Army on Beiling Fortress... "
It's just that most of these people are disciples of the Jade Emperor Peak Weapon Refining Institute. Before, Qin Qian, as the chief historian, could not command him. Now Wu Zhidong throws them to Beiling Fortress and listens to Chen Hai's orders. Chen Hai doesn't know. They were thinking about how to torment him, so before he officially took over as the Chief Craftsman, even though they went back to Yantai Pass and met with Wu Zhidong, they did not go to the Craftsman's Office to cause trouble.
Seeing Chen Hai's confusion, the man smiled and said, "Junior brother, I never thought that a senior brother like me would end up working under you. Please don't embarrass me."
The Black Wind Army can indeed be said to exist in name only in Beiling Fortress, and the main body has already moved into Tianying City.
However, this time, Qin Qian accompanied the officials from the Craftsmanship Department, headed by a middle-aged man dressed in black robes, something Chen Hai had never seen before.
On the basis of the original craftsman's camp, Beiling Fortress expanded a fortress outside the east city, built more than 2,000 houses and more than 20 large and small workshops. The craftsmanship department finally officially moved into Beiling Fortress and accepted the Chen Dynasty. The control of the sea.
