Chapter 940: Commander Candidate
"There is also the Dao army, and the Shenxiang Sect has also recruited disciples in recent years, and today, it has an army of 500,000. Coupled with the vassals of all walks of life, it is by no means difficult to recruit a million Dao troops. ”
The Returning Dao person of Shenjing Peak also sighed: "Right now, I feel that the number of two million Dao troops is far from enough. Even with the addition of the many demon armies under the Ziyutian banner of the Beihai Dynasty, they can only have a slight advantage. ”
"Don't think about the Beihai Dynasty!"
Zhang Xin said indifferently: "Our sect can support the Beihai Dynasty to build Jingwei Island to resist the Taiyi Divine Sect." But if we join forces with Jingwei Island to attack the Terran Clan, what is the reason? It will also make our sect lose the people's hearts and minds. ”
"Just as the Divine Mighty True Monarch said! Although the North Sea Demon Spirit is different from other Demon Spirit Races, the people of the world will not see it that way. Therefore, this battle must not be taken into account by the Beihai Dynasty. In addition, as far as I know, on the Taiyi Continent, there are also a large number of Dao troops gathered now. The Department of Foreign Intelligence predicts that they are likely to force their way across the sea in the near future. ”
When Huang Ji said this, everyone in this hall couldn't help frowning.
Although the Sun Moon Xuanzong is now unprecedentedly powerful. But at this time, the Taiyi Divine Sect was still like a boulder pressing on their hearts.
It is said that a few decades ago, this sect had about five million Dao troops, and in recent years, in order to break through the Void Light Sea, the number of Dao troops of the Taiyi Divine Sect has also been constantly expanding, and it is not difficult to take out seven to eight million people. This amount seems to be similar to the current mobilization of the Dao army of the Sun Moon Xuanzong, but the problem is that the Taiyi Divine Sect has unified the Taiyi Continent, and there are no vassals under its command, all the Dao troops are trained as one, not only the formation is the same, but the practice is also the same system of exercises, and there is absolutely no stragglers.
In addition, there are also legal domains, the number of legal domains of the Taiyi Divine Sect has been as high as 450 in recent years, and the number of the powerhouses of the Heavenly Domain is 42, and the number of divine domains has not yet been discovered due to the blockade of the Taiyi Continent.
But with the passage of time, the strong foundation of the Taiyi Divine Sect will gradually explode to the point of shock.
"In fact, the time to attack the North Sea can be delayed until two years later, which is the best. The so-called state of full mobilization like the Divine Sect can only last for two years at most, but the problem is that the Taiyi Divine Sect will not give us so much time. ”
At this time, Zhuang Xuanzhao turned his eyes to Gui Zhenzi again: "I don't know how many troops Ziwei Xuanzong and Lushen Palace can take out this time." ”
Although the alliance between Sun and Moon Xuanzong and these two families was implemented by Zhang Xin a few years ago, now the latter has stepped down as the first pillar of heaven. And the Heavenly Pillar Conference of the Sun Moon Xuanzong is directly responsible to the sect master. Therefore, the Son of Guizhen, who is in charge of this matter, is undoubtedly much more appropriate.
"Ziwei Xuanzong's 300,000 Dao army, and the 1.4 million beast army under the Deer God Palace, will also set off from Luyuan Island one day after our sect sent troops. ”
Gui Zhenzi frowned and said: "Although the number of troops is a little less, the Central Plains has not been peaceful recently. In addition, the two families also took out money and hired 200,000 Dao troops each, which shows their sincerity. ”
Recently, in the Central Plains, the activities of the Divine Cult and the Open Heaven Dao have become more and more frequent, and it is a well-known fact that they have caused great disasters in the areas under the jurisdiction of various sects.
At this time, not only the Supreme Xuanzong began to taste the bitterness of conniving at the Divine Sect, but the power of the beast clan was also affected.
In the Central Plains, thousands of spirit beasts are joining the Divine Cult and becoming so-called 'beast soldiers' and 'holy beasts'.
The Divine Cult has the ability to help people improve their cultivation and prolong their lives, and it also has a large number of ancient potions, which has a huge temptation for both spiritual cultivation and spirit animals. In addition, the sects of the Central Plains have been fighting each other for many years, and there are discord and blood feuds between each family, and they cannot form a joint force under the call and threat of the Sun Moon Xuanzong like the north, so the altar of the Divine Sect in the Central Plains has grown to nearly 100 recently, with 700 million believers.
The Open Heaven Dao is mainly developing in the half-demon, and its strength is also developing rapidly. The Open Heaven Dao didn't know what technology it mastered, and with a little modulation of some so-called 'qualified' half-demons, it would give them amazing strength. And the number of half-demons in the Central Plains is no less than a billion people, and these are all natural soldiers of the Open Heaven Dao.
There are even spiritual cultivators and ordinary people who take the initiative to find the way to open heaven and ask to become half-demons.
Therefore, although Zhang Xin shook the fortress and dealt a heavy blow to the Divine Sect and the Open Heaven Dao again, it did not stop the expansion of these two families, but only delayed it slightly.
"These two families can send so many troops? At this time, it is very valuable. ”
The new Heavenly Domain, the Lord of the Qingtian Moon Clan, Moon God's heart, was a little surprised, and then he glanced at everyone present, and asked in a cold voice: "What I want to know most now is who the main general of this Western Expedition is. ”
The secular affairs of the Sun and Moon Xuanzong were of course decided by the Heavenly Pillar Conference. The so-called Supreme Council of Elders here can only be used to resolve matters that cannot be resolved by the Heavenly Pillar Conference.
However, when it comes to such a major matter as the commander of the Western Expeditionary Army, the Heavenly Pillar Council still needs to turn to the Council of Elders.
And the many heavenly domains here have a great impact on both the Ten Heavenly Pillars and the Elders.
In particular, after the number of Heavenly Domains of the sect increased to sixteen, the authority within the sect tended to be concentrated in the Supreme Council of Elders.
Therefore, recently, Zhang Xin has submitted a proposal to the Council of Elders, intending to expand the number of Heavenly Pillars to nineteen people in one fell swoop, corresponding to the nineteen Divine Realm Spirit Mountains of the Sun Moon Xuanzong.
He was well aware that the Council of Heavenly Pillars could only maintain its authority if it represented the interests of more people. And with the current number of heavenly pillars, it is undoubtedly insufficient.
After everyone present heard the words, they all focused their eyes in the direction of Zhang Xin. When it comes to war, the Shenwei Zhenjun, who once pacified the first battle in Tiandong, is undoubtedly expected by everyone.
Especially when the strength of the Sun Moon Xuanzong does not have too many advantages, only this one will reassure everyone present.
"This position of commander, junior brother, I naturally deserve it!"
Zhang Xin also knew that this battle was related to the luck of the Sun Moon Xuanzong in the next 10,000 years, so he did not shirk it.
However, he then changed his voice: "But Senior Brother Gong Tianlai and I are most likely going to have a big battle with Wen Feitian and others, but I am afraid that I will be flawless in command of the war at that time." Therefore, this handsome selection is the most important thing. ”
Hearing this, including Guizhenzi, they couldn't help frowning and looking at each other. At this critical time, instead of the deputy marshal who commanded the whole army, they did not have a suitable candidate.
Originally, Ling Tiejun and Wan Qi Tianzang were the most suitable, both of them were the first heavenly pillars in the past, and they were both extremely talented. However, the former lost his prestige in the gate because of the almost loss of the Shenyuan Divine Abyss, and the latter was also depressed because of Lin Jianyue's incident.
"I belong to my predecessor's first day pillar Zhen Jiucheng!"
Huang Ji sighed slightly: "This person's ability is well known! He has also assisted Shenwei Zhenjun in battle, so he must be able to cooperate tacitly, but the problem is that this person who forcibly crossed the super heavenly pillar level calamity was seriously injured after the catastrophe, and now he is in retreat and cultivation, and he is steadily cultivating." It is expected that it will be two months before it can be released. ”
"This man is the best person!"
Gui Zhenzi also sighed, his face distressed.
In fact, now in the sect, in addition to Zhang Xin, Ling Tiejun, Wan Qi Tianzang and Zhen Jiucheng, there are also fourteen predecessors of the First Heavenly Pillar, including Jian Tianxue, who are still alive. And the vast majority of all jurisdictions also have the experience of serving as a pillar of heaven.
But very few of them have really experienced large-scale battles, and only a few hundred years ago, the group that drove the Northern Divine Sect across the Luoyan River was reliable enough.
And then there are the elites who have experienced the test of cruel warfare after the crisis of the sect in the past fifty years. They not only have strong cultivation, but also have excellent records. and such as Ling Tiejun, Wan Qi Tianzang and Zhen Jiucheng, not only are they all super heavenly pillars, but they have also commanded major battles of more than 200,000 scales, not to mention Zhang Xin.
As for the level of the Heavenly Domain, it seems that Gong Tianlai, Zhuang Xuanzhao, Lihattian and others are all outstanding people in the world, but Gui Zhenzi will never consider it.
The two sides of this battle will definitely do whatever it takes, and although the Divine Authority True Monarch will personally participate in the Divine Domain War, the Heavenly Domain level will not be spared.
Therefore, the candidate for this commander can only be selected from the divine masters and legal domains within the sect. But there are really not many people who are really qualified and capable.
Gui Zhenzi even thought of Gao Yuande and Chu Beili, but unfortunately, these two people have been convicted of betrayal, and the former defected to the Divine Sect and has gradually been reused. The latter was convicted by the Discipline Hall and sent to the lowest level of the Fire Yama Prison, where he will experience the most extreme suffering in all his remaining lives.
But if these two people are still in the door, they must have been promoted to the jurisdiction one after another. The two also have enough ability to take over the position of deputy commander.
This must be the meaning of the so-called 'national disaster thinking about good generals' in the idioms left over from ancient times.
"If there's really no suitable candidate, wait until two months!"
Zhang Xin saw that all the Tianyu present had no intention of proposing the rest of the candidates for the time being, so he decisively made a decision.
He thought to himself that even if the time was delayed for another two months, the defensive ability of the Divine Sect would not be much stronger. In the past two years, the latter has done what should have been done.
As for himself, within these two months, he will definitely be able to get a powerful divine treasure and increase the combat power of two more powerful ones.
At this time, Yue Pingchao also suddenly spoke: "If it has to be postponed for another two months, then Yue thinks that it is better to put the time of the westward expedition three months later." ”
When many Heavenly Domains in the hall heard this, they couldn't help but turn their eyes in surprise.
At this time, although Yue Pingchao officially joined the Sun Moon Xuanzong, in the Council of Elders, this person has never said a word.
First, this has nothing to do with the various peaks of the Sun Moon Xuanzong, and the second is that the foundation is shallow, so he has maintained a detached state in the past few years.
Zhang Xin seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but look slightly moved.
And Yue Pingchao did not live up to his expectations, and said word by word: "Three months later, if my sect can provide all kinds of things worth 3.7 billion yuan, Yue Mou is seventy percent sure that he will impact the Divine Domain!"
When these words fell, everyone in the hall couldn't help but look ecstatic.
