Chapter 635: Building an Army with All-out Effort
Chapter 635: Building an Army with All-out Effort
Outside the White Paper Fairy City.
The camp of ghost soldiers.
Sun Lingtong glanced around, and everything he saw and heard was transmitted to Ning Zhuo through the life-saving thread.
Ning Zhuo then "saw" a large number of ghost soldiers taking some ointment.
The ghost soldiers opened the ointment and applied it evenly on their bodies.
When the ointment is patted and applied, it often makes the sound of a living creature dying tragically.
These sounds will be absorbed into the bodies of the Yin soldiers and quickly dissipate.
Sun Lingtong explained at the right time: "I have inquired about it. This kind of medicine is called the Lost Sound Paste."
"It is made of Nether Grass, Moon Shadow Dew, and Ghost Flower Mud. Now the entire army of ghost soldiers will apply this ointment on time every day."
"At first, the drug has no effect at all, but as it is used more often, it will gradually accumulate, and eventually the sound of death will transform the soul and form a heavy armor protection effect."
Sun Lingtong finally added: "But because this medicine temporarily transforms the soul, once the effect wears off, the soul will become extremely weak. If other pills are not taken later, it will also lead to huge sequelae such as soul deformity, memory confusion, and loss of intelligence."
Ning Zhuo suddenly remembered that when he was participating in the war between the two countries, the two countries' armies increased their own dangerous operations of heavy equipment.
He realized the seriousness of the problem: "So, the Yin army is actively preparing for a decisive battle!"
"When this army of ghost soldiers first arrived, their size was not large. But after experiencing so many ghost waves, they have continuously absorbed ghosts from them, and with the continuous increase in troops from Wangchuan Hell, their size has now approached 100,000!"
"If the entire army attacks, can Baizhi Xiancheng hold on?"
Ning Zhuo felt tremendous pressure.
Although he was the deputy city lord, in fact, the White Paper City Lord had not really delegated power to him. Therefore, Ning Zhuo still knew nothing about the background of the White Paper Immortal City.
At most, I know that the paper statue has the combat power of Nascent Soul.
"And the real key to this war lies not in the White Paper Immortal City, but in the Wangchuan Underworld!"
Ning Zhuo learned the overall intelligence thanks to Meng Yaoyin's arrangement.
However, he did not leak out the information about the Heavenly Ghost's transformation into a living being and the Lord of Wangchuan's century-long plot.
Because keeping these secrets does not prevent Baizhi City Lord, Yang Sanyan, Wen Runyu and others from actively defending.
Sun Lingtong asked: "Xiaozhuo, we don't have much time left."
"How is the Qingjiao Army?"
"Can you ensure that they have the courage to fight to the death in the underworld at the last moment?"
"Even if you use the life-threatening thread to control Qing Chi, this little girl may have the support of the army, but can she force the Qing Jiao army to risk their lives to kill the enemy?"
Ning Zhuo sighed: "This needs careful planning."
He cut off contact with Sun Lingtong, thought for a moment, and called Qing Chi.
When Qing Chi heard that Ning Zhuo wanted to see her, she immediately smiled and ran straight to Ning Zhuo's residence.
"Xiao Ma, did you miss me?" Qing Chi was as enthusiastic as ever.
"You are always busy practicing, or helping the city lord."
"Now that you have found the traitor, you can take a good rest. I will accompany you and we can do something we love!"
Qing Chi's eyes were burning.
Ning Zhuo's scalp began to feel numb.
He coughed and said, "Miss Qingchi, although we have found a traitor, we didn't capture him alive, so we can't get the key information."
“We don’t know whether there are other traitors.”
"Under these circumstances, it is best for us to remain as cautious and vigilant as before and not let our guard down."
"Besides, the enemy forces outside the city are approaching 100,000 in size. The situation in Baizhi Xiancheng is critical, and we have no right to relax!"
Although Qing Chi loves Jiao Ma very much, he also knows the big picture.
She sighed, "Thanks to you, Xiao Ma, we were able to secure investment from the Wanxiang Sect. Now, we have passed the military supply test. We also have two points on the military system, and we have a foundation."
"Once I figure out the third rule, we can move on to the next stage."
"Once the weapons are built, our Qingjiao Army will be officially established."
"It's a pity that we are still a step late. If we could have successfully established the army earlier, we could have sent out the entire army as soon as the enemy began to station, and perhaps we could have wiped out the enemy."
"Not only is it easy for the enemy to gain a foothold now, but it is also massive. If our Qingjiao Army goes out of the city to fight, we will definitely die!"
Ning Zhuo pondered in silence.
He has a different view on this.
"This is most likely the evolution of the destiny of the Yang world."
"Yang Tian wanted to punish Wang Chuan Mansion Lord, so he made various arrangements."
"According to the plan provided by the Gray Bone Elder, the Qingjiao Army is a powerful weapon against the Lord of Wangchuan Mansion!"
"Under normal circumstances, it would be too difficult to establish a new army. Not only does it require resources, but it also requires consensus from all parties. Baizhi Xiancheng is rich in resources, so why doesn't it have a cultivation army yet?"
Ning Zhuo has been here for a long time and gradually realized the deeper structure here.
"Since it is heaven's arrangement, I should bring the Qingjiao Army to the stage where it belongs."
"But before that, we still have to do our best to strengthen this army."
"I think that the heavens chose me as their savior because they took into account what I have in my hands."
"In this case, I will obey God's will."
Ning Zhuo had already made up his mind, and with this in mind, he took out a helmet.
Qing Chi immediately cast a curious look and saw that the helmet was semicircular, with a wide face and the top slightly tilted back, like a phoenix about to spread its wings. It was bronze in color, with many scratches and pits on the surface, all of which were traces of battle.
Qing Chi said in amazement: "Oh, this is a military weapon!"
“Although after the military system, there are military weapons.”
"But it's too early for me at this time."
The ghost girl then gazed at Ning Zhuo affectionately: "Xiao Ma, I knew you loved me. You have already prepared many treasures for me. Although this weapon is incomplete, I like it very much."
"Thank you!"
Ning Zhuo immediately became serious: "Miss Qingchi, you think too much. This weapon is not a gift to you. I just lend it to you for use."
"It is one of the components of the soldier's helmet."
Ghost girl:?
Ning Zhuo saw her puzzled look and realized that she knew nothing about soldiers wearing the same helmets, so he told her the details.
Qing Chi couldn't help but look at the helmet again: "It turns out it's a treasure. But with such a great origin, what use is it to us?"
Ning Zhuo said, "We have to add this."
Qing Chi then saw the young man take out a book.
This book is made of metal.
There are four big characters on the cover - Gao Sheng's suicide note. The strokes are vigorous and powerful. When people take a look at it, it is as if a violent storm is coming towards them, and they feel an indescribable sense of oppression.
"Is this a military book?" Qing Chi was delighted. "I have read many military books and it doesn't seem difficult."
She took the "Gao Sheng's Last Letter" curiously, flipped through it for a few times, and asked doubtfully: "Oh, this book is too damaged, the contents inside are not complete at all."
Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "These two things should be used together. You try it, the effect should be very good." At the beginning, Sun Ning and the other person used these two treasures. One of them comprehended the Light Body Swift Wind Formation, and the other one comprehended the Warrior Recovery Technique.
Ning Zhuo is optimistic about Qing Chi's talent in military strategy and thinks she will gain more.
Qing Chi nodded: "Okay, Xiao Ma, I'll listen to you. Please teach me how to use it."
After Ning Zhuo's instructions, Qing Chi put on a round helmet, infused his spiritual consciousness into the military book, closed his eyes and meditated carefully.
Ning Zhuo was watching from the side and soon his face showed a strange expression.
He saw the soldiers' helmets and "Gao Sheng's Last Letter" glowing together, and echoing with them were the military forces within Qing Chi's body!
The light of the three connected into one, shining for a full stick of incense before dissipating at the same time.
"How is it? Have you figured out anything?" Ning Zhuo waited patiently for Qing Chi to slowly open his eyes and asked immediately.
Seeing Ning Zhuo's concerned look, Qing Chi felt a warm feeling in his heart.
She was very excited: "I have learned two military tactics. One is called [Money Connects Ghosts], and the other is [Money to Buy Life]."
Ning Zhuo was surprised, but soon accepted it.
He was looking forward to Qing Chi's talent in military affairs.
Judging from the facts, Ning Zhuo was right, Qing Chi was indeed extraordinary!
"Tell me in detail." Ning Zhuo asked again.
Qing Chi did not hide anything from his sweetheart and told her the whole story directly.
The military strategy [Qian Tong Gui] can consume military funds and recruit a group of ghosts as soldiers to supplement the Qingjiao army.
The military strategy [Buying Life Money] consumes military expenses and forms a powerful healing force to heal the entire army.
"Both are quite practical!" Ning Zhuo nodded, feeling happy but also strange. "Why are they both related to military spending?"
Qing Chi scratched his head embarrassedly: "Maybe I have been stimulated by the cost of building the army recently. I can't earn so much money even if I work hard for hundreds of lifetimes!"
Ning Zhuo looked at Qing Chi and did not hide his admiration: "You are extremely talented in military strategy, Miss Qing Chi, you must not underestimate yourself, you will achieve great success in the future."
Qing Chi was so happy that he almost jumped up: "Xiao Ma, you think so highly of me? Haha, I knew you wanted to cultivate me and let me take you far away in the future, right?"
Ning Zhuo coughed twice and flatly denied: "No."
"Okay, let's not talk about anything else."
"Do you still remember the spell [Human-Ghost Face Reading] that Qing Jiaojun mastered?"
The military branch grew steadily with the funding from the Wanxiang Sect, and the Qingjiao Army was also trained by the military branch, and subsequently mastered a variety of magic spells.
One of them is called [Human-Ghost Face Reading]. This spell can make the ghost soldiers among them temporarily transform into pure human or ghost appearance.
When they transform into human form, they are human beings. When they transform into ghost form, they are ghosts!
Ning Zhuo said: "You have been deeply influenced by the military branch when you comprehended the military strategy this time. I suggest that you immediately undergo special training. Mastering the two military strategies as soon as possible will be very beneficial to the Qingjiao Army. In future fierce battles, it can save many lives."
Half of the people in Qingjiao’s army are related to Qingchi.
After hearing what Ning Zhuo said, Qing Chi also became serious and said, "I will definitely practice well!"
Ning Zhuo then stepped forward again and asked the city lord to open her secret training room so that she could use the time in it to develop and gain more practice for Qing Chi.
As a result, on the third day, Qing Chi ran excitedly to Ning Zhuo's residence.
"Xiao Ma, I have figured out the third military system!"
As soon as he said this, Qing Chi's stomach started to growl.
Ning Zhuo was eating. He smiled when he heard the voice and said, "Have you eaten yet? If not, let's eat together and talk while we eat."
Qing Chi trained hard, almost day and night, and he was eager to master the two military tactics as soon as possible so that he could save the lives of one or two relatives and friends in battle.
She really didn't eat it.
He sat down immediately and took a few bites of the food: "Pah!"
Qing Chi spat it out directly: "What is this thing? Is it for human consumption?"
Ning Zhuo shook his head seriously: "Although the taste is not very good, it can increase your foundation. Do you know how much the mouthful of spit you just spit is worth?"
Ning Zhuo reported a number, which immediately made Qing Chi's face change. He glared at the spiritual food and said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have wasted it like this. I'll eat it. No matter how bitter it is, I can eat it!"
Qing Chi swallowed the spiritual food with a distorted face, feeling both pain and joy.
These spiritual foods have excellent effects but terrible taste. They are made by an old spiritual chef from the dark cuisine school.
It turned out that the old man in the kitchen had agreed to the city lord's clone and chose to plead guilty, and he wanted to use his life to stabilize the morale of the citizens. As a result, Ning Zhuo found out the traitor and indirectly saved his life.
After the old man learned about it, he immediately found Ning Zhuo and said that the grace of salvation must be repaid and that he wanted to do his best to help Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo arranged for him to prepare spiritual food for him.
While eating, Ning Zhuo asked Qing Chi what the third military system was.
Qing Chi replied: "It's called father and son fighting together!"
Ning Zhuo immediately understood what triggered Qing Chi to comprehend this.
Qing Chi was determined to master the two military tactics he had learned before, and he realized more deeply that the Qingjiao Army had two major groups, one was the Qing family of the ghost race, and the other was the Jiao family of the human race. No matter which family it was, Qing Chi felt that they were related to him.
From this, he understood the military system of fathers and sons fighting in battle.
In this way, the three military systems are complete.
They are: strict discipline, one term of training is ten years of preparation, and father and son fight together in battle.
These three military systems laid the foundation for the basic style of the Qingjiao Army.
First, they have strict military discipline.
Second, their military expenditure is not low.
Third, they are related.
After that, you can build an army and continue to add military systems. But as long as you have three, you can proceed to the next round.
"It's time to prepare the weapons." Ning Zhuo stood up.
Qing Chi: "Don't you want to eat?"
Ning Zhuo shook his head: "I am just trying it out, these are all prepared for the Qingjiao Army."
"I'm going to look for someone right now to see if I can get some funding to help us get through this military equipment issue."
“Although there are still several stages behind military equipment, they are all the way to a strong army and elite soldiers.”
"As long as the weapons are completed, the army will be established!"
Qing Chi was surprised again, looking at the table full of spiritual food: "Give all this to our Qingjiao Army, isn't it too extravagant?"
Ning Zhuo shook his head.
This was nothing when it came to the final battle. Ning Zhuo had also obtained the consent of the Lord of White Paper City and the old man of Spiritual Kitchen.
The spiritual food was prepared by the old spiritual chef, and the meal expenses were paid by the Lord of Baizhi City.
Ning Zhuo was only responsible for persuading the two of them before.
