Chapter 43: The Great Defeat (11)
This time, Ishinuma did not hide his intentions.
The purpose of recruiting demons into the army is to be able to drive the puppets and powerful offensive magic weapons brought by the human beings.
Iinuma is ready to continue the attack with a team of his own and the enlisted demons!
Hearing Ishinuma say this, several officers present immediately made a unanimous judgment.
This stone head is absolutely insane!
I really can't see it, it's easy to understand that those spirits in the fire and water are easy to go crazy, such a guy who pops out of a stone can be stimulated to go crazy, it's not easy, it's definitely not easy.
Why didn't I see that this guy was a madman, and he had followed him all the way, if he knew that this was the case, he would have died a long time ago.
However, a few officers didn't dare to say to their faces that Ishinuma was crazy, this guy was the master who dared to fight with the human mage, in case the excitement was too big, and he stabbed the stone spear first when he got angry, it would be a big deal. Although several officers felt that their intelligence and spiritual values were a little higher than Ishinuma's, their physical and martial arts values were a little lower than Ishinuma's even if they were tied together.
So they only dared to hold on to the fact that the conscription of evil spirits was not in line with the laws of the dynasty.
As long as the demons can't be recruited, Ishinuma won't have enough men, and it will be impossible for him to continue to attack. Now none of the defeated soldiers in the team are stupid, who will go with him to death!
Ishinuma didn't expect these short-sighted guys to understand their lofty ambitions, and he didn't force them, he only insisted that the matter of recruiting evil ghosts was so decided, and that any punishment of the dynasty in the future would be borne by him, and it would not affect all the brothers, and said that this battle was completely voluntary, and those who wanted to go with him were welcome, and took the initiative to stay and garrison this important logistics base. But he also made it clear that this matter was by no means up to these officers to make the decisions for the soldiers under them, and all the soldiers must be summoned to make it clear in person.
So the officers went to gather their ranks and prepare for the meeting.
Ishinuma, on the other hand, took a few of his subordinates down to meet the captured demons.
At this time, there were more than 1,000 evil ghosts captured here in the logistics base settlement, and basically none of the construction workers escaped, except for a few who were eaten at the beginning, the others were captured alive.
The demons now regret a little, but there is no regret medicine to take in the world, so they can only wait anxiously for it to fall.
Iinuma summoned all the captured demons.
More than 1,000 evil ghosts are really not much, in hell places, there are not many others, just many ghosts, every year there are countless ghosts from the world into hell, usually you can catch a thousand 800 casually, in the usual time no one will pay attention.
But now it's different, more than a thousand evil ghosts mean more than a thousand powerful puppets!
The appearance of the puppet has fundamentally changed the status of evil spirits in hell.
Iinuma didn't know that his decision was actually prescient.
Just when he was arguing with the low-ranking officers that it was not in accordance with the laws of the dynasty to recruit demons.
The high-level of the dynasty who had already achieved a great victory at the canyon pass immediately passed the law of conscripting evil ghosts, and the main purpose of this law was to recruit the army of demon puppets of the scattered human westward army!
While Ishinuma was still nervous about preparing to recruit more than a thousand demons into the army, tens of thousands of demon puppets had been recruited on the battlefield in the rear, and a separate combat corps had been formed.
Ishinuma didn't know anything about it.
At this moment, facing more than a thousand evil spirits, he first announced his identity, the vanguard officer of the dynasty's Eastern Expeditionary Army.
Whether it is the Eastern Crusade Army or the vanguard officer, it is a non-existent thing, but there are no other spirits who know that it is not.
After announcing this identity, Ishinuma then stated his intention to recruit these demons into the army, and made it clear that as long as the demons joined the Imperial Crusade Army, they could enjoy legitimate national treatment and would no longer be a low-level race.
Demons have always been the lowest race in the hell of this layer, and being able to upgrade to the national of the Fire Tree Dynasty can be said to be a change from a crow to a phoenix, and if it is placed in the past, it can definitely attract the vast majority of evil ghosts. Ishinuma had personally seen tens of thousands of demons fighting to the death against each other for a specially approved normal national identity.
But this time, the temptation was not so spiritual.
The demons are treacherous and insidious at both ends, but they definitely have nothing to do with the word stupid.
As soon as Ishinuma mentioned that he wanted to recruit them into the army, they guessed Ishinuma's intentions, and didn't they want them to fly the puppets to fight against the humans?
Just kidding, the methods of those humans are clearly ruthless, and the shadow of that massacre still hovers in the hearts of every demon and native, even the demon and natives who were captured later will be organized to watch the relevant footage of that * before they officially work.
What is the difference between fighting humans and sending them to death? Even if you have normal national treatment, you don't have a chance to enjoy it!
Ishinuma had expected the silence of the demons, and he was not in a hurry, and said that this conscription was completely voluntary, and that he would lead the team to continue to attack and advance eastward in the near future, and they would be taken over by another team that would come with him, and wait for the arrival of the large army in the rear, and the commander of the army would decide their fate.
When Iinuma was talking about this, he gave a small hint that the so-called other team was the part that ate on the street when he was hunting evil spirits before, and if he hadn't stopped it, what would have happened if he fell into the hands of such a team? Before the so-called large army catches up, they will be eaten and wiped out, and there will be no one left.
If you are called to join the army, you may die later, but if you are not called back, you will die.
The shrewd demons immediately made the right choice and enthusiastically responded to the call to join the Imperial Crusade en masse.
In order to ensure absolute control over the demons, Iinuma extracted some of the souls of all the demons.
This is a natural skill that every hellish race has, but if the demons are not willing, extracting souls will be a lot of work and effort, and Ishinuma does not have that much time and manpower.
Spirits that have been extracted from their souls tend to be a little dull and less agile in their movements.
But the advantage is that it can ensure that these demons are absolutely obedient to orders.
When Yong Bowen first established the Hell Colony, he also used spells to extract the spirits of evil spirits, but he soon found that those evil spirits had become mentally retarded despite their absolute obedience to orders, and most of the work in Hell was obviously beyond the capacity of the mentally retarded, so he quickly stopped this method.
After completing the formation of the demon puppet army, Ishinuma arranged for his cronies to take the evil ghost to open the demon puppet, while he rushed to attend the all-soldier meeting.
At the meeting, Ishinuma announced his idea to continue to attack and advance eastward, which caused a great uproar, and the defeated soldiers, who did not have much guts, were almost frightened by Iinuma's crazy idea, and shouted to leave, at this time they suddenly remembered that they were not affiliated with Ishinuma, but they simply forgot that it was through the light of Ishinuma that they were able to live in peace.
However, Iinuma did not force it, and kept his promise at the officers' meeting, and all soldiers came and went freely, and could choose independently, only to say a common saying in the hell of this layer at the end: "True warmth can only come from the cracks in the ground and the fire", which is probably the meaning of seeking wealth and danger.
