Chapter 175: Appointment
"Your Majesty, are you waiting for the cold winter to pass? If you start the army now, I'm afraid it's already a cold winter when you reach the border. One of the lords and factions suggested.
It's just that the decision of war or peace is in the hands of the old king, and they just go through the form.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The giant's combat power in the cold winter is extremely high, and the actions of our soldiers will be affected. ”
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
A group of parliamentarians did not recommend starting the war now, and if you want to start a war, it is better to choose the spring and summer seasons, the giants are afraid of the heat, and strenuous exercise will quickly lead to a decrease in physical strength.
Moreover, it takes a certain amount of time to prepare troops in a hurry, both logistics and armaments, and fighting a war is the most troublesome thing, especially this kind of war with little oil and water.
"I have made up my mind, and I have summoned you here to inform you to pacify the people of the various realms, and at the same time to prepare for the logistics and armament of the various legions."
"Total war, begun." The old king's words revealed an unshakable determination, and several councillors who still wanted to refute closed their mouths in amusement.
"Your Majesty, who is the commander-in-chief?"
"Yue Jun."
"And the Nine Emperor Princes will also go this time." After the old king said this, he carefully observed the faces of several councillors.
Some praise, some oppose. However, those who oppose it are all worried about the safety of the Nine Emperor Princes, and no one questions his ability.
It makes sense for the old king to send the Nine Emperor Princes, the first inscription weapon must be watched by a trustworthy person, and this person is not chosen by the Nine Emperor Princes.
Second, the Nine Emperor Princes who have made meritorious contributions can gain more popular support, and the great achievement of destroying giants is enough to pass on the praises of a thousand years.
The old king couldn't go on a personal expedition, except for some reason, he had to shake the mess in the imperial capital.
The political turmoil set off some time ago was too serious, and the power of the entire imperial capital was reshuffled, and the remnants of the void were not known to be hidden.
Those re-elected officials need to choose their own circles, if the old king does not sit in the imperial capital, it is difficult to destroy the giants, and the family will be gone.
The Nine Emperors still have to go through training, and he himself has unspeakable hardships.
"Your Majesty has made up your mind, and we will receive the order."
The parliamentarians agreed one after another, but in fact, they were polarized, and sometimes they were also shown to the old king, and the parliamentarians of the main battle faction were also greedy, and some were even more ruthless than the main and faction.
They did this to show that parliamentarians from both factions would never wear a pair of pants and that the old king was the real top of the pyramid of power.
A group of parliamentarians discussed the preparation of armaments and food, and the operation of military salaries, and sometimes there were disagreements and quarrels, and there was a great momentum of fighting.
The council quarreled noisily for two or three hours, and at last some difficult matters were settled by the old king.
"Go ahead and the meeting is over."
A group of parliamentarians bowed and left, leaving the old king alone in the council chamber of the university.
He had sat in this position for decades, during which time he had witnessed countless desires and intrigues, and the old king was now really tired.
"Ahem, ahem!" The old king coughed so violently that he couldn't stop even when he covered his mouth.
Since ancient times, there has been a law that if you cover your mouth and cough, you will vomit blood, and it is difficult for the old king to escape. After coughing for a while, the old king let go of his hand, and his palms were covered with scarlet blood.
He was terminally ill, otherwise how could he be so vigorous, the words of the councillors the old king understood, but his time was running out.
"Your Majesty, the Nine Emperor Princes have arrived." The voice of the black-robed man came from the side.
"Biography."
When the Nine Emperors arrived at the council hall, they were shocked to see the old king with a sluggish expression.
"Out of the way." The old king's expression perked up, and the majesty of his eyes made the Nine Emperor Princes fear again.
"Remember what I said the other day?"
"Yes."
"It is true that the Cult of God can be replaced, but it cannot solve the root cause. The people are ignorant, they need to be enlightened, and there is no way to do it before. ”
"After destroying the giants, you have to control the Divine Cult in a relaxed manner, slowly reduce their influence, and only let this group of people carry forward their teachings, and everything related to civil affairs will be blocked in all aspects."
"There is no problem with agriculture and the economy, but the main peace faction and the main battle faction are just a way to balance, and this balance must not be broken, and it is far more troublesome for one party to dominate than to compete with two parties."
"Remember, if the tail is not big, you have to make up your mind, just like what I did a few days ago, you have an inscription weapon is the strongest deterrent, and all cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are small ants." The old king's words were sonorous and powerful, and then he explained other important things.
"Father, what about Maudecaesar? The man was alert, and seemed to know that the end of the inscription was his own death. ”
"Keep him first, it's best to be able to pick out his inscription, and you can't kill him."
"Erchen understands."
……
Su Ming was exercising in the Nine Emperors' dormitory, and the battle in the past few days had increased his swordsmanship proficiency to Lv3 (11%), and the more he got to the back, the more difficult it was to improve his swordsmanship.
Regarding Doyle's heavy slashing ability, Su Ming can refer to it, there is no need to delve into it. His kendo is developed by qi, and the power of his skills is definitely more practical than that of swords.
When the Nine Emperor Princes came back, they saw Su Ming wielding a weapon. A body of tight muscles drenched in the light, and the look of exercise was meticulous.
"Your Highness is back."
"Master Caesar is admirable, I don't know when I will learn a new inscription from you?" The Nine Emperor Princes asked tentatively.
"Has Your Majesty decided on the time to attack?"
"It should be tomorrow, after the Pope has read the new doctrine, my father will also issue a proclamation against the giants." Fire Book Bar
The Nine Emperor Princes didn't get angry because Su Ming diverted the topic, if it didn't work once, it would be twice, and it was a big deal to exchange it for energy crystals.
"By the way, I'm going to use an inscription. Knife. Su Ming stretched out his hand to ask for it, and the Nine Emperor Princes thought about it for a while and took it out of his arms.
The inscriptions of Long Yuan and Dong Xuan were somewhat damaged, and the failure of the Imperial God Peak caused the durability and toughness of his weapons to decrease, so Long Yuan was cut out of many holes.
"It was given to His Highness, but it was somewhat damaged." Su Ming took out Doyle's ancient sword and handed it to the Nine Emperor Princes, although he couldn't take it away, he could give it to the aborigines.
"It turned out to be the ancient sword Liufang!" Emperor Chen apparently recognized the origin of the sword.
"I hope Your Highness doesn't pay the bills." Su Ming was still very worried about the remaining 20 energy crystals.
"Definitely, definitely!"
Su Ming carved the inscription fluently, the business of the inscription master is almost a monopoly, if the inscription of a certain redeemer's weapon is damaged, and he still wants this effect, he can only find the original inscription master to repair it.
After carving the inscription, Su Ming took advantage of the sword flower in his hand, and the growth of the two weapons was slow, and it was estimated that the end of this world task would only reach 30% progress.
"Your Highness, I'm leaving." Su Ming put on his shirt and inserted the weapon back into the sheath, the old king arranged a position for him, and he had to report.
Su Ming originally wanted to refuse, but the task reward could not be changed when it appeared, so it was better to follow the rhythm of the Void Realm for now.
The old king asked him to take office, and Su Ming went to toss and toss. After the start of the war, he may have to lead the army to rush and kill, and the kind of good thing that destroys thousands of giants with a single cannon cannot fall on his head.
The Nine Emperors flexibly rotated the inscription in their hands. Knife, looking at Su Ming in the distance, a playful smile leaked from the corner of his mouth.
After the last change of the Brown Satin Legion, the commander has been demoted by the old king, and Su Ming made the old king trustworthy for the time being, at least his loyalty has not changed.
Both the Shimmering Legion and the Brown Satin Legion are responsible for protecting the Imperial Capital, with the difference being that the Shone Legion is more akin to the Forbidden Army and is closer to the old king.
The dog that had bitten its owner would be suspicious, and the old king later found a reason to transfer the former commander of the Brown Satin Legion.
The military region of the Brown Satin Legion is in the east of the imperial capital, and after coming to the inside of the military region, the soldiers inside are lazy and lazy, and they are now looked down upon by many peers and people, and even their families don't have a good face for them.
"Hello sir!" A soldier at the door saluted straight, and although the soldiers on the side didn't understand why their brother respected a centurion so much, they still stood upright and saluted together.
"Isn't that Caesar? I heard that he lives in the palace now, why did he come here? The soldier standing guard recognized Su Ming's appearance, and said to his companion after seeing him leave.
"Your message is too slow! He's the commander now! ”
"Huh? That's it? Just him? ”
"Silly. Force! Be careful what you say, what are you thinking all day long? Don't even know that he killed the eldest prince and a large group of masters? ”
"Isn't it!"
……
When I came to the general's pavilion, after pushing the door open, there was a general sitting inside, who was reviewing the official documents of the legion, and the old king transferred the original commander away, and he was replacing him these days.
"Lord Caesar! Please! "This general used to be Su Ming's boss, but now the other party has become his boss, and the general is very fast.
"General Leonard, let the other generals see me." Su Ming sat in his own commander's position and said.
"Yes, my lord!" Leonard turned to leave.
The Commander's office pavilion is decorated with a streamlined interior, with frosted glass windows that keep the interior private and bright.
A desk, a bookcase, a meeting table, a few stools. Except for some durable plant embellishments, the others are slightly monotonous.
On the desk are all messy official documents, military expenses, food and grass, military salaries, the distribution of officers, and so on.
The handsome seals and talismans were neatly placed, and Su Ming leaned back in his chair and waited for the group of generals to arrive.
About ten minutes later, dozens of generals walked in together. Su Ming crossed his legs on the table and glanced at it roughly.
"As you can see, I am now the commander of the brown satin, and I call you all right, so that you can get to know me again."
"Except the Lord will take the others away."
There were only about 10 generals left in the room, and it was a weird feeling to see the former centurion's subordinates now sitting in front of them with a big grin.
"How's the grain and grass ready?" Su Ming didn't have much management experience, so he asked casually.
"Complete."
"Where's the armament?"
"For the time being, only one batch has come, and the follow-up may be a little later."
"How's the soldiers doing?"
"As you can see, morale is low." Several generals smiled awkwardly.
They don't want to do this kind of thing, and now the entire brown satin army is labeled as a "traitor", and there are people who blame it wherever they go, not to mention how embarrassing it is.
"Order, 10 bounties for killing a giant."
"Really?" Several generals asked in astonishment, Su Ming came up with a big sum, and 10 gold coins were enough to pay an ordinary soldier for two or three years.
"Whoa!" Su Ming casually took out a few boxes of gold coins, about tens of thousands.
These things are all hidden savings, and Su Ming feels that he has collected some of them.
"Each of you will have one gold coin, and you will share the rest equally. Go out to eat, drink and have fun, and don't let me see a bunch of cowardly faces. ”
"The reward in the back is advanced from the military salary in advance."
Su Ming's attitude towards this group of soldiers didn't matter, it was just that the morale of the soldiers was higher, and it would be more efficient to kill giants.
