Chapter 67: Mountain Castle

"The military office looks deserted. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

While waiting for the head of the affairs department, Wang Cheng glanced into the affairs office and said.

"This is the norm, although the army can exchange various cultivation resources through military merits, but if you want to get military merits, you can only go to the front line to kill the swamp clan, just maintain order, patrol, garrison places, etc., the military merit obtained is too little, and it is too dangerous to go to the front line to kill the swamp clan, and the death rate is amazing......"

Wu Xin introduced, and halfway through speaking, he lowered his voice slightly: "There are many factors that cause this situation, such as the death rate...... How can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, and no matter how top a genius is, what is the point of falling if he fails to grow up......? The military department pays attention to rules, fairness and justice, even if you have a star source talent of 10, you have to start from scratch when you join the military department, and every bit of merit has to be obtained by your own efforts, but if this kind of genius joins the star refiner organization, he will immediately be focused on training, and will be accepted as a disciple by the star refiner and given a lot of resources, etc., in this way, the talents of the military department will naturally wither gradually...... If it weren't for the fact that the military department had mastered many secret techniques and treasures that the Star Refiner Organization did not have, and not all martial artists were qualified to join the Star Refiner Organization, it would be very problematic whether the Imperial Army would be able to get the replenishment of troops. ”

Wang Cheng thought of the Wang family's approach to the imperial conscription order......

Send twenty people to complete the mission......

It's just to complete the task assigned by the empire and send twenty people to make up the number......

From this we can see the status of the military department in the minds of the people.

Ordinary people have no choice before they enter the military department, and how can those geniuses who think they are gifted can stand the same treatment as ordinary people and climb up step by step?

Furthermore, in the main city of the firmament and the great city of the Star Rail, the Star Refiner Organization and the Flame Sword were the real overlords, occupying four-fifths of the power, and those true geniuses had already been swept away by the Flame Sword and Star Refiner Organization.

The waiting time was not long, and the sound of footsteps soon came from outside, and then a middle-aged man in soft armor came to the hall with a subordinate who looked like a clerk.

"Director Zhao. ”

Seeing the middle-aged man coming, Wu Xin hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The middle-aged man nodded, but his eyes fell on Wang Cheng, and when he felt that Wang Cheng's not very strong body actually contained a terrifying power of qi and blood, he couldn't help but light up: "Okay! Yes, your Wang family really sent a good seedling this time, your name is Wang Cheng?"

"Wang Cheng has seen Director Zhao. ”

"Haha, although the military department has a saying that military orders are like mountains, but when performing military affairs, most of the time we are still very casual, I see that the light in your eyes has broken the spiritual barrier, and the body is strong...... You're almost at the limit of your physical body, right? Put it on the battlefield is definitely a tiger general, okay, you have the status of a knight, come, choose, which unit you want to go to, where to carry out the mission. ”

Director Zhao said, with a wave of his virtual hand, a three-dimensional map was projected in the hall.

This map is the territory of the entire Star Rail City, and the cities have been under its jurisdiction.

The whole map, the north is calm, but in the south in the lower right corner, it is full of red areas of different sizes, and the red areas record a lot of information about the swamp tribe and the local garrison, and the situation is clear at a glance.

"There are traces of a large number of swamp fishmen in the south of our star rail city, and there are sixteen swamp fish-man force groups entrenched in that area, which contain ninety percent of the military strength of our star rail city, among which the crimson area represents the critical area, there are a large number of fish-man warriors, fish-man kings, and fish-man warlocks, among which the fish-man warlocks in these three places have domesticated a lot of swamp giant crocodiles, those giant crocodiles have thick skin and thick flesh, and their toughness is amazing, and they can resist all star magic below the fourth order, I don't recommend you go over these areas, and the remaining red areas, In the pale red area, the level of danger is correspondingly reduced, but there are also fish-man warlocks in the red area, but the creatures they domesticate are not as terrifying as the swamp crocodile. ”

Director Zhao explained to Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng stared at the three-dimensional map and judged carefully, and from time to time he clicked on those red areas and light red areas to understand the number of fish people in it and the number of surrounding garrisons.

Wang Xuanji, Wu Xin and others also followed suit.

"Young master, I think this place is very good. ”

After a moment, Wu Xin suddenly pointed to a pale red area on the map and said, "Here, there is a water area that is one hundred and sixty kilometers long, and the number of fishmen living in it is around 6,000 to 10,000, and we have 4,000 troops here, in addition to twenty-four star cultivators......"

"Here. ”

Before Wu Xin finished speaking, Wang Cheng had already pointed to a red area on the map and said, "Director Zhao, I choose to clear here." ”

"Oh, Lake of Sin?"

Seeing the place chosen by Wang Cheng, Director Zhao was slightly stunned: "Are you sure?The Sin Lake is a red area, four hundred and thirty kilometers longitudinal and horizontal, and the location is far away, and it has already reached the border between our Star Rail City and the Riyan City. The density of the fish-man warriors is extremely large, with a preliminary estimate of more than 60,000 people, plus this area belongs to the border, and the military bosses of the Star Rail City and the Riyan City have been arguing about who is responsible for clearing them, so that the garrison has not been much, and there are only a thousand people defending against a mountain castle. ”

"My strength, the income from merit to deal with ordinary fishmen is too slow, and the number of fishman warriors in the pale red area is too small, this area is the best, although the number of forty thousand fishmen is a lot, it can be scattered in a range of three hundred and thirty kilometers, and the density is not as exaggerated as we imagined, plus the fishman king and fishman warlock here are scarce, it is the best place for me to win merit. ”

"Okay, it's rare that you don't want to defend the city but take the initiative, the supreme governor of the mountain castle is Viscount Xiao Luo, he has sent several letters for help not long ago, you have just in time, he has six star refiners under him, with your knighthood, you can also get a good status, if you really have the courage to take the initiative, I can give you the position of vanguard officer." ”

"Thank you. ”

Director Zhao nodded, then took out a pen and paper, and quickly wrote out a letter of appointment: "Go, I hope to hear the good news of your contributions to the front line." ”

Wang Cheng took the letter of appointment, bowed slightly, and walked out of the hall.

At this time, an adjutant strode in from outside and said, "My lord, those who took over the task have already arrived, and they are the experienced trainees of the Flame Sword Headquarters. ”

It was because they had the intention of using those areas as a place of training, so they refused to cooperate with us to completely defeat the fish-man tribe...... These people from the Star Refiner Organization really damn it!"

A hint of anger flashed across Director Zhao's face.

"Your Excellency is angry, the situation in the corroded swamp is already critical, and we need to use their power to break the deadlock there......

The adjutant hurriedly whispered comfort.

At this time, Wang Cheng had already walked out of the hall, and he couldn't hear the next conversation clearly, but Director Zhao's reaction and the information of the conversation made him a little strange: "What happened just now? That Director Zhao is very hostile to the people of the Star Refiner Organization?"

"This ......"

Wu Xin looked around, and when he noticed that no one was paying attention to them, he whispered: "Actually, this is a way for the Star Refiner Organization to weaken the influence of the Empire, sir, the map you just saw, although there are many fish people, but if all the Star Refiners in the Star Rail City are united, it will not be difficult to spend a year or two to clean up all those swamp fish people...... But those star refiners are either family elders, or some members of the star refiner organization, and the star refiners who really belong to the military department are not as good as one-fifth of the total number, just like the mountain castle that you are going to, sir, among the six star refiners, it is estimated that there is only one who really belongs to the military department, and the remaining few are all hired by the military department for a lot of money. ”

"Hire ......"

"Yes, hire! The military department can't resist the attack of the fishmen, so it has to spend resources to hire those strong people of the Star Refiner Organization, so that the Star Refiner Organization can obtain resources from the military department and expand its influence. ”

"The military department resists the invasion of the fishmen, and it can be called to defend the country, once the military headquarters is defeated and the fishmen invade, those star refiner organizations will not have a good time, isn't this the Jade Burning Bureau?"

Wu Xin smiled bitterly: "Sir, you think too simply, I said before, the star refiner of a big city, the military department only accounts for one-fifth, the fish man can defeat the military department, not necessarily the star refiner organization, once the military department gives up that land, the star refiner organization will immediately rush up, and after defeating the fish man, take those lands for themselves, because these lands are recovered by them, the Changfeng Empire has to admit their ownership, otherwise how do you think the main city of the sky and the main city of the sun occupied by the flame sword came from?"

When Wang Cheng heard this, he immediately understood the difficult situation of the Changfeng Empire at the moment.

Due to the emergence of the Swamp Clan, this great empire has lost its influence as before, and many Star Refiner organizations have also taken the opportunity to rise and strengthen themselves by constantly sucking the blood of the empire......

"In the final analysis, the Star Refiner Organization has risen, the influence of the Empire is not as good as before, and there are powerful forces in the void but they cannot be unified because of the different minds of the kings, so they are contained by the Star Refiner Organization, unless the Empire is willing to give up most of the soil shrinking forces, otherwise this situation is difficult to change, and in doing so, the Empire may have preserved its vitality, but most of the territory has fallen into the hands of the Star Refiner Organization, and the result will still not change, this is a Yang Scheme! The Empire is still holding on to every inch of land, and it is just unwilling to fail and survive. ”

Wang Cheng nodded, not dwelling on this topic any longer: "It's still early, let's set off directly to the mountain castle." ”

"Yes!"
