Chapter Seventy-Six: The Whole City Worships the Immortals of Chu
Mo Wentian rubbed the bridge of his nose and thought.
But after a round of brains, he didn't come up with a way to deal with it.
Add money? The Mo family is not short of money, but no matter how rich they are, they can't withstand the burning of the army, and now the military salary is twice as high as that of the empire, and in addition, there are more people, and the Mo family is afraid that they will not be able to hold it.
So what to do? Treat the people as their own?
That's even more impossible, and the people aren't stupid.
If they can enter the Mo family, they may be willing to go to the Guangyu Empire, but the Mo family still needs to save face.
For someone as powerful as Uncle Wu, he had to wait until the Mo family formed an army before he was regarded as the Mo family.
This road is not working.
"How many people are being recruited now?"
"Five thousand."
Mo Wentian has a headache, what are you doing with five thousand, do you want to deliver food to people?
Mo Shiheng was embarrassed to say that among the five thousand people, more than half of them were the guards of the Mo family's children, and only more than a thousand were really recruited.
At this time, Mo Shilin spoke, "The head of the family doesn't need to be too worried, the god said that the Guangyu Empire is in civil strife, and the people's life should not be easy, as long as we go over to appease the people, and then promise heavy profits, we will definitely be able to raise a large number of troops." ”
Mo Wentian's eyes lit up, his mind was opened, yes, the Guangyu Empire is not so stable, and the difficulty of recruiting troops is definitely lower than that of the Holy Dragon Empire.
"Okay, according to what my uncle said, I will wait until I reach the Guangyu Empire to raise troops."
The matter of the army was settled, and the clan elders began to continue to report.
Mo Shiheng swept away the previous embarrassment, and said confidently, "These days, I have cleaned all the temples and altars in the city, and all those bird immortals before have been swept away by me, and now the whole Sword Pass City is worshipping Chu Immortals." ”
Mo Wentian"??? ”
Asked you to raise an army, how did you run to clean the altar?
No wonder only 5,000 people were recruited.
Looking at this positive appearance, I'm afraid it's not that I'm preoccupied with the altar, and I don't care about recruiting troops.
Before he could speak, someone began to accuse him.
Because he has targeted the head of the family before, Mo Shiheng has been relatively low-key recently, and now he can be regarded as finding an opportunity to speak.
"Mo Shiheng, why are you going to clean the altar without doing what the head of the family has arranged? Do you want the Mo family's thousand-year-old wish to be destroyed in your hands? ”
Mo Shiheng retorted confidently: "What are you yelling about? Who said I didn't recruit the army, didn't I recruit 5,000 men? People don't want to come, what can I do. Besides, I am a clan elder, do I have to do everything myself? ”
"Why are you so concerned about cleaning the altar?"
"Sweep the altar... Cleaning the altar is for the sake of the immortals, the Chu immortals are such good immortals, and they are willing to help us, is it wrong for me to let the people of the whole city worship him? ”
"Of course it's wrong, the god himself said that he doesn't need to be worshipped, you should put all your mind on recruiting troops."
"Wrong fart, can you control me?"
"Why can't you do it? As a clan elder, I can express my opinion on anything, and if you don't do it right, I just want to say it. ”
After saying this, Mo Shiheng was not ready to continue arguing with him, what was the point of quarrelling, he had to roll up his sleeves and do it.
The fist is the greatest truth.
Seeing that the gaffe was about to escalate, Mo Wentian was interested, fighting or something, he liked to watch it the most, especially the clan elder fighting.
Although Mo Shilin also wants to see Mo Shiheng beaten, now is not the time.
So he opened his mouth to block, "I want to fight, wait until the meeting is over, is this a place for fighting?" ”
He completely forgot that he had fought here before, and that the target was also Mo Shiheng.
The uncle came out to dissuade him, and Mo Wentian, as the head of the family, couldn't sit still even if he wanted to see the fight, so he said, "The two clan elders wait for the time being, let's have a meeting first." ”
Mo Shiheng took a sip, sat back in his seat, and the meeting continued.
Next, the other clan elders reported on the preparation of materials, money and grain, as well as the resettlement of the Mo family's industry.
Money, food, armor, weapons and other materials have been prepared.
The Mo family's industrial manor and shop, none of them are ready to give up, after all, it is just to save face, and it is impossible to really let the Mo family leave the Holy Dragon Empire and leave the ancestral land.
Leaving here, who will fight for face.
After these are settled, the personnel who will go out will be determined.
Half of them went on the expedition, and half stayed to watch the family to ensure the status of the Mo family.
Interestingly, the children of the Mo family all wanted to go on the expedition, and none of them were willing to stay and watch the family.
So in the end, the personnel chose to use the oldest and fairest method.
Lottery.
The people who were drawn to the expedition were naturally very happy, but those who were left behind were not happy, and they all had sad faces.
After that, in order to go out with the army, they used all kinds of methods, some drugged, some locked people up, and some children wanted to break their own brother's leg and go to the war in his place.
Thankfully, his father found out about it, and his own leg was broken.
Halfway through, there are also people who want to use a little more civilized means to get a place.
That is, buy, buy it for a big price.
But everyone is a child of the Mo family, what you have, even if I am almost there, I will never have it.
What, you can meet any request?
Are you kidding? What can you meet my requirements?
What could be more important than the Mo family's thousand-year-old wish.
Being able to participate in this matter and work hard for the Mo family's thousand-year-old wish is more important than anything else.
In this way, the only means of civilization disappeared.
The Mo family is still better at fists.
The clan is in turmoil.
The clan elders acquiesced to this situation, and in their opinion, those who were beaten must be inferior in strength.
Even his own brother can't beat him, what face do he have to go on the expedition?
Moreover, if it goes on like this, the children of the Mo family who set out in the end will definitely not have a weak hand.
At the end of the meeting, it was Mo Wu's turn to report.
"Commander, the five thousand troops have undergone preliminary training, and follow-up training can be carried out on the road, but in the end, it is only qualified after seeing blood."
"That is, the army... Forehead... The army can be pulled out now? ”
Mo Wentian was a little embarrassed, the five thousand army, I was really embarrassed to say that it was a big army.
"Yes."
"Okay, now that everything is ready, give the order, and go out tomorrow."
Mo Shiheng questioned, "Tomorrow? I'm afraid it's too late to worship the ancestors. ”
Going out to worship your ancestors? It's really not clear about this matter, and it's fun now.
"Uh... Then wait until the ancestors are worshiped before going on the expedition? ”
Mo Shilin shook his head, "It's not proper, in my opinion, it's better to wait for the foundation to lay before worshipping the ancestors." ”
He thought to himself, what if he first worships his ancestors and then goes out on the expedition, and fails? The Guangyu Empire is not weak, otherwise the previous head of the family would not have encountered danger to his life on the border.
Although there is the help of the gods, but what if? According to that person, there is more than one god in the world.
Mo Shichong also had the same idea in his heart, and the two clan elders with a normal painting style reached an agreement at this moment.
Mo Wentian thought, why didn't you say it earlier, wouldn't it be embarrassing to say it earlier?
"Okay, the meeting is over, let's go and prepare, and go out tomorrow."
The clan elders responded and got up to leave.
At this time, Mo Wentian suddenly spoke, "Wait, there is one more thing." ”
He looked at the elder of the Mo Shiheng clan, "The meeting is over, will the argument between the two clan elders continue?" ”
Looking at his excited face, a few question marks appeared in the hearts of all the clan elders.
The head of the house is really... It's peculiar.
But they loved it.
"yes, you still can't fight."
"Fight, fight."
"Come on, come on, let it go, make room for it."
Mo Shiheng scolded secretly, thinking to himself, if he didn't wear the inner armor today, he was afraid that he would suffer a big loss, which was inappropriate.
Thinking about it, he quickly left the council chamber.
