Book 1: The Earth Demon Prince Chapter 201: The Execution Division
Only then did everyone present relax their hearts, but they were still frowning, and a Supreme Elder sighed: "Now, there are only a few people left in this Eternal Night City to guard it, and the other domains are roughly the same, where are there still many people going to reinforce it, how can this be good?"
"In fact, before coming back, the Demon Emperor convened us and others to discuss several times, and now there are only two ways to go, one is that we can rely on the power of the terrain to fight a war of attrition with them, but in this way, the already scarce reserve supply resources of my earth demon are even more insufficient, if it is not solved in time, I am afraid it will be difficult to support it anymore. ”
"The second is to win over those neutral forces that have not yet participated in the war, form an alliance with them, and promise enough benefits for them to send troops to help, and defeat the God and Demon Dynasty in one fell swoop while the other party's help has not yet arrived. Seeing the appearance of everyone, the old man was obviously expected, and his face did not change much, and he spoke again.
"Judging from the current situation, these two strategies seem to be quite difficult to exercise, this supply alone is a huge difficulty, and the God and Demon Dynasty must also take action, if you want to let the clan send troops to help, it is even more difficult. ”
"That's right, the Demon Emperor will let the old decay come back, they will start a tug-of-war with the enemy in front, try to consume the opponent's troops, and we are to solve the problem of supply and help, everyone obeys!"
Li Mingchang said, his face suddenly became serious, and he took out a black token engraved with wolf patterns, and everyone looked at this token, and they all touched their chests with their hands, some bent over, and some knelt down.
"According to the command of the Wolf Emperor, temporarily seal Yeyang as the Execution Division, in charge of the Night Wolf Order, responsible for fund-raising and help-seeking matters, and if necessary, you can recruit and transfer manpower from all over the Demon Country, Li Mingchang assists, and limits it to 20 years, raise weapons, resources, and pills used by the army for 50 years, and obtain the support of more than two clans, and dispose of it after the expiration of military law. ”
"What! Li Xiang? Did I hear it wrong, or did you always say it wrong? Is this really an order from the Wolf Emperor?"
"Ridiculous, how could the Wolf Emperor give such an order and put a stinky hairy boy in charge, what can he do, a person who has not yet been forged?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone showed surprise on their faces, their faces were full of disbelief, and they frowned, and several people from the Blood Wolf Clan spoke without saying anything.
"What is he doing? He actually put Yang'er in charge of this kind of big thing, and he has to be dealt with by military law, I have to go to the front line and let him give an explanation!" Han Qinglan also showed a look of anger, blaming Ye Changfeng for how could he give Yeyang such a task.
Yeyang was also taken aback, but quickly calmed down again, and held Han Qinglan's hand and comforted him: "Mother, don't blame my father, he handed over the task to me out of trust in me, not to mention that with Grandpa Li's help, there will be no problem!"
There was a lot of discussion in the hall, and I saw Li Mingchang cough lightly twice, so he put away his dissatisfaction and quieted down, for this ordinary old man, they were still very shocked in their hearts.
Although Li Mingchang is only an old servant of the Ye family in name, his unfathomable strength makes everyone dare not despise it in the slightest, even if Ye Changfeng deals with political affairs, his assistance is indispensable, and vaguely, he is already the secret prime minister of the Earth Demon Country.
Seeing that no one was making noise anymore, Li Mingchang set his eyes on Yeyang: "Shaoyang, can you take the order?"
"Yeyang receives the order, and he will not insult the mission!" Yeyang's face was solemn, he half-knelt on the ground, and took the night wolf order with both hands.
Seeing this, everyone sighed and shook their heads, and several people from the Blood Wolf Clan also sneered, no one was optimistic about Yeyang, but they didn't dare to say more, they all hugged their fists and said, "I've seen the Execution Division!"
"Shaoyang, do you have any tasks now, do you need help and manpower transfer?" Li Mingchang asked.
"Each ministry has its own duties, and no normal affairs can be left behind, waiting for orders for the time being, and the juniors still need a few months to understand the specific affairs, and there is no task release and manpower transfer. Yeyang accepted the token and replied.
Li Mingchang smiled and nodded at him, obviously agreeing with his approach: "Okay, then this conference will come to an end, please go back!"
......
On the street dotted with lights in Eternal Night City, an old man and a young man were walking slowly, and the old man looked at the young man: "Shaoyang, are you still wondering why Changfeng gave you this task, maybe you still complain a little about him?"
Yeyang nodded: "Doubts are certain, but there is nothing to complain about, but I feel a little excited, and I can't help but give it a go." ”
"Oh, it seems that all these years of travel have changed you a lot, and to tell you the truth, I mentioned this to him at first. The old man flashed a hint of surprise and said.
"Well, but now that it's been taken, it doesn't matter who proposed it, all we have to do now is to finish it, and do it beautifully. The young man clenched his fists and said in high spirits.
"Okay, good, good, with ambition, you're one step closer to completion, but don't be too presumptuous, this task is not so easy to solve. The old man laughed, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
"Okay, I will, Grandpa Li will tell me about the affairs of the Earth Demon Kingdom now!"
"No problem, you want to know about which mission. ”
"Let's talk about the backup supplies first, you always have to eat the meal one bite at a time, right?"
"Well, there are three things in the supplies needed for the march and the war, one is the cultivation resources, the cultivation resources such as the demon crystal are the foundation of the battle, and the demon crystal can not only improve the strength of the army, but also an important supplement after the war. ”
"The second is the elixir herbs, these things are the top priority of the marching battle, not to mention the army, even in peacetime, you have to prepare a lot, just imagine, after a big war, not to mention the soldiers who died in battle, if there is no treatment of the elixir, how many seriously injured people will die with hatred, and how many people will affect the play of the next battle because of their injuries, carefully calculated, this consumption is too terrifying. ”
"The third is weapons and equipment, which is also an indispensable thing for fighting a war, equipment can greatly improve the combat ability of soldiers, and good protective gear can also reduce unnecessary damage. ”
"What is the source of these resources of our Earth Demon Country?" Hearing Li Mingchang's words, Yeyang thought for a moment, and then asked.
"In terms of demon crystals, there is still a large ore vein in the territory of our demon country, four medium-sized ore veins, and eighteen small ore veins, which can mine more than 100 million demon crystals every year, and there are also some industries in various places, with an income of about 50 million, which adds up to nearly 200 million, and the minimum consumption of the army is also 300 million per year, and there is a difference of at least 100 million, and it is 5 billion in fifty years. ”
"As for the elixir, it has always been provided by the Jade Rabbit Clan, and the annual production volume is only enough for seventy percent of the army's expenditure, and the refining weapon that the Iron Bull Clan is responsible for is not much different from this. Li Mingchang said in detail in 1510.
"And how much is left in the treasury?"
"The country's income has not been very much over the years, the treasury has always been empty, and the war expenditures over the years, except for the reserves that cannot be used, are only enough for twenty years. Li Mingchang sighed helplessly.
"So, we just need to accumulate resources for another thirty years, hehe, Grandpa Li, it seems that we have completed six tenths of this task!" Yeyang suddenly laughed.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Mingchang asked, puzzled.
Yeyang took out a storage ring, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Li, I got some things outside, and I think it's enough for ten years' expenses." ”
Li Mingchang took the ring and just smiled lightly: "Shaoyang, I know that you have gained a lot outside, but compared to what you need, I'm afraid it will ......."
He was teaching Yeyang earnestly, casually probing into the space, but the words couldn't help but stop, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, and then he laughed dryly twice, and put away the storage ring full of treasures: "I didn't expect that you had such a big harvest outside, but I underestimated you." ”
What was sent just now was the remuneration and compensation given to him by Feng Yan and others in the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, and the property sent by several bigwigs together was enough for the ten years of expenses of the Demon Kingdom, Yeyang scratched his head: "I just had a good opportunity, I got the corpse of the scourge in the Disaster Realm, and the Heavenly Demon Kingdom just needed it, so I just got some thanks." ”
"It turns out that you took the bone of the scourge fighting beast, and after so many years, its remnant soul is just about to run out of oil, so I deliberately opened the cave to find the host, but looking at the current appearance, it was destroyed by you. Li Mingchang was a little surprised again and sighed.
"What? Listening to Grandpa Li's tone, it seems that he is quite familiar with him, has Grandpa Li heard of this scourge?" Yeyang listened to his words and was immediately curious.
"How can I have seen it, it's just that I've seen records in ancient books, okay, don't talk too much, Shaoyang, how are you going to complete this task?" Li Mingchang also seemed to react and said too much, so he changed the topic and asked.
Although Yeyang was still curious, he was also very interested and didn't ask any more, this old man with a mysterious identity couldn't see through it like this, so he replied seriously: "Grandpa Li, I want to know some specific details, can you tell me what to do?"
"I can't help you, but I suggest you go to the Ink Night Pavilion and take a look, there are all the details you need, maybe after reading too many books, you can suddenly come up with something. The old man stroked his long beard and replied with a smile.
"That's right, thank you Grandpa Li for your suggestion, Shaoyang will go and see it tomorrow. Yeyang replied with his fists clenched, and the two talked for a long time before leaving.
