Chapter 387: Expansion
In the early morning of the next day, Murong Feng got up early to practice as usual, sitting on the balcony and breathing in the cold air of the winter morning, feeling refreshed like never before.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Lian'er brought in a basin of hot water. Murong Feng got up, washed up briefly under Lian'er's service, changed into a festive new outfit, and went to greet several elders one by one. Then we had breakfast with the family. On the way back to the courtyard, I met Mu Xue.
"What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? Murong Feng saw that she hadn't explained her intention for a long time, so he opened his mouth and asked directly.
Mu Xue twisted: "I, I'm here to say goodbye to you!" ”
"Oh, you're going back? That's right, if you've been out for a long time, your family must be worried about death, and it's time to go back. Murong Feng smiled.
Mu Xue snorted lightly: "I said I was leaving, you seem to be very happy?" ”
Murong Feng smiled and said: "It's not life and death, do you want me to write a poem to send you a thousand miles?" Come and play whenever you want to come back, you are always welcome at Yanziwu, don't forget that you are my Dharma Protector. ”
Mu Xue was suddenly laughed at angrily, and said angrily: "Who is rare to be your Protector of the Dharma!" I'm here to tell you that I may not be able to see each other for a long time after I go back this time, because after the Lantern Festival, it will be the beginning of the school season, and I am in my third year of high school this year, and I am going to prepare for the university entrance examination. ”
Murong Feng let out a reluctant sigh, took the initiative to hug her, and encouraged: "Come on!" The hope for the future of the country is all pinned on you! ”
Mu Xue immediately said madly: "Can we still communicate normally!" You give me a serious point! ”
Murong Feng laughed and said, "It's just a university entrance exam, how nervous you are about it!" Even if there are fewer opportunities to meet in the future, we can still get together more often in the game! ”
Mu Xue rolled her eyes. The emotions that were still a little reluctant in my heart were all lost by her. With an unhappy face, he took out a beautifully packaged brocade box and handed it to Murong Feng. Pouted and said, "Your parting gift, I'll open it after I leave!" ”
Murong Feng smiled, accepted the gift, and asked with a smile, "It seems that I also have to prepare a gift for you." ”
"No, I already have it." Mu Xue snorted: "The saber you gave me is the best gift, I will cherish it." ”
Murong Feng said, "Okay, I'll send you." Do you want to inform the other sisters? ”
Mu Xue shook her head and said, "No need, don't block the sisters for the New Year." Just like you said, it's not life and death, there will be opportunities to meet in the future. ”
Murong Feng nodded, took the initiative to take Mu Xue's hand and sent her to the spaceship. Until the spaceship disappeared into the clouds, a look of loss flashed on Murong Feng's face, and then returned to the small courtyard as usual.
At this time, Lian'er sent a copy of last night's battle report from Lin Lin, and Murong Feng couldn't help but sigh lightly after reading it: "I can't imagine how serious the damage caused by the explosion of that steel monster is!" Luckily, it was kept out of the fortress, otherwise the entire fortress would have been razed to the ground. ”
Lin Lin also made a special note on the losses of last night's battle at the back of the battle report, and the long list of numbers made Murong Feng, who had just received a huge amount of money, feel a sense of powerlessness. Fortunately, there is still a good piece of information at the end of the battle report, that is, after the explosion, a crack opened in the earth with the explosion as the center, and then it was filled with a gushing spring overnight, and it became a new moat running east-west to the north of the fortress! After discussion, Lin Lin, Qin Meng, and the others unanimously decided to rely on this ground rift to establish a new line of defense. The area, along with the surviving main body of the fortress, will be converted into a town. Now everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed, and he only waits for Murong Feng to sign the appropriation. To put it bluntly, "Hurry up and give the money!! ”
Murong Feng almost didn't laugh angrily after reading the battle report. Now that the orc army has suffered heavy losses, coupled with internal and external troubles, it is no longer able to continue the southward invasion. Spending a lot of money to build a fortress city is completely unnecessary in Murong Feng's opinion, after all, she positioned the Burning Legion as an offensive army, and passive defense every day is not her style!
Murong Feng thought about it for a while, asked Lian'er if she wanted a pen and paper, and immediately signed two orders with her own handwriting, and then handed them to Lian'er to execute! After reading these two orders, Lian'er asked in great surprise, "Miss, are you planning to expand the Burning Legion?" ”
"Well, yes." Murong Feng nodded and explained, "As the scale of the war continues to expand, the current few thousand men and horses are no longer enough to deal with the large-scale battles that may arise in the future. So I'm going to expand the number of the Burning Legion Legion directly to 10,000! Well, this is only the first phase of the expansion plan, and new recruits will be carried out as the scale of the battle expands in the future. ”
Lian'er frowned and said, "But the federal government, a private armed organization with a size of tens of thousands of people, will definitely not be approved." The last time we registered a private security company under the name of a security company, we have reached the maximum number of people! ”
Murong Feng said: "Well, I have already thought about this issue. I'll go to my grandfather later, ask him to come in, and start a veterans' game club in his name. You see that the big guilds in the game can pull thousands of people casually, has the federal government taken care of it? ”
Lian'er's eyes widened, she didn't expect Murong Feng to hit the old marshal on the head, and hearing that the name of this so-called club was obviously aimed at those veterans!
"Miss, you're not planning to recruit veterans this time, are you?" Lian'er said in astonishment.
Murong Feng smiled: "That's right, that's what I mean." Now the world is peaceful, and no major war has broken out. Many veterans' social security benefits are not as much as the salary of an ordinary white-collar worker, resulting in many veterans who have no skills to return to their old jobs to become interstellar mercenaries or even star thieves. Since they are all working for money, of course I can pay to recruit these people. After all, selling my life to me is not only legal, but also not life-threatening! ”
In fact, Murong Feng didn't say one more thing, that is, the real purpose of her asking her grandfather to come forward was actually to go to those veterans who were idle at home! After all, it is easy to get a thousand troops and it is difficult to find a general, especially in today's highly informationized interstellar warfare, the same army is completely divided between a trump card and a rabble in the hands of a mediocre talent and a famous general! Murong Feng can be regarded as a rainy day. After all, new expansions are gradually being opened as the game is being played. The future battlefield will definitely be a confrontation in the vast sea of stars. You want to rely on a group of ordinary players who have never received military training to command an interstellar war to win. It's crazy just to think about it!
"Miss, have you mentioned this matter to the marshal and his old man?" Lian'er asked.
Murong Feng shook his head and said, "Not yet, isn't this just about to talk about it." ”
Lian'er said embarrassedly: "Then what if he doesn't agree?" ”
Murong Feng smiled confidently and said, "I'm ninety percent sure that my grandfather will agree!" ”
Lian'er didn't know where Murong Feng got her confidence, but seeing that Murong Feng had made up her mind, she no longer persuaded her, so she had to let her go.
When Murong Feng came to the compound where his grandfather lived, he only heard a fierce quarrel coming from inside, which made Murong Feng wonder very much, could it be that someone came to the door to make trouble again during the Chinese New Year? When she pushed open the courtyard door and took a look, she found that it was a group of energetic old men arguing around a virtual deduction sand table.
Murong Feng tiptoed forward to take a look, only to find that this group of old men was actually playing a military exercise game called "Conquest".
For this "Campaign" game, in fact, Murong Feng has also heard of it, the predecessor of this game was developed by several retired staff officers when they had nothing to do, and put it on the Internet for the majority of military fans to entertain themselves. Later, the game was picked up by a game company and acquired its rights, and then the military exercise game called "Conquest" was developed.
After signing up as a gamer, players will start from the class, command their own squad of five, go through battles, and finally become the generalissimo in charge of thousands of troops.
And ten years have passed since the game opened for open beta, and it can be regarded as an extremely long-lived real-time strategy game.
At this moment, there are two starfleets with a total scale of about 100,000 on the virtual sand table are fighting fiercely in the starry sky, grandfather Murong Xiong commands the blue fleet, and another old man with a tiger's back commands the red fleet, and the two people command their own fleet, and the group of onlookers next to them are also divided into two factions of blind foaming at each other, and a few emotional old men are already rolling up their arms and sleeves and can't play in person!
Murong Feng recognized at a glance that the sturdy old man who was inseparable from his grandfather was one of the few remaining old marshals of the Federation, 'Tiger Shuai' Li Menghu!
Thinking back then, the four fierce generals under the command of Generalissimo Zhao Yunfei of the Federation, 'Lion Tiger Xiong Ying', now there are only two left. It's really embarrassing!
In the end, his grandfather Murong Xiong was judged to be a victory by the system by a very small advantage, and the angry tiger handsome almost lifted the virtual sand table. Fortunately, this virtual sand table is just a projection, otherwise it would really be lifted off by this tiger handsome.
Murong Xiong let out an arrogant laugh immediately after winning the victory, and his mouth was even more merciless to ridicule the other party, and the angry Li Menghu almost staged a real-life full martial arts.
"That plate just now doesn't count!" At this time, I heard Li Menghu say angrily: "This fucking system doesn't understand the real use of the double scissor strangulation tactic at all, Lao Tzu has already sent the tactical orders directly to the commander of each starship formation, and let you old bastard take advantage of the loophole!" It's such a fucking loser this set! ”
A group of old men immediately fought for Li Menghu, claiming that the game just now was clearly cheapened by the game setting, otherwise the person who won the final victory would definitely be Li Menghu! And a group of old men who supported Murong Xiong immediately hit back with all kinds of cynicism, laughing at the other party for not being able to afford to lose, blaming the game setting!
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insiders look at the doorway. Murong Feng didn't know anything about the command of the starfleet, but she knew how terrifying it was to 'send tactical orders directly to the commander of each starship formation'! You must know that this is a huge interstellar army composed of 100,000 starships, according to common sense, the supreme commander of the fleet can only give orders for the grand strategic direction through the joint staff at most, and it is impossible to have the energy and ability to issue tactical orders to every fleet formation commander, you must know that an interstellar army composed of 100,000 starships has hundreds of formation commanders! This is equivalent to dividing one's attention into hundreds, and then personally issuing different tactical actions to each starship formation, while also distracting himself from dealing with all kinds of cumbersome information fed back from the battlefield! Moreover, the tactical actions of these fleets must be coordinated with other formations, and there must be no deviation, otherwise it will be a catastrophic consequence! In addition to describing this kind of thing with madness, Murong Feng can't find any other adjectives to describe it!
"Is this the terrifying strength of the top 100 generals on the galaxy list? You must know that the tiger handsome in front of him is only two places higher than his grandfather on the list of famous generals! Murong Feng was amazed in his heart, and he really couldn't imagine how those famous players who were among the top ten had changed. State! Fortunately, the old guys in the current top ten are almost dead, and there are only three old immortal monsters left (to be continued......
