Chapter 587: A Storm

Huang Baiyan, who was consulting Zhang Hao, looked at the young secretary who rushed in excitedly, with a sympathetic face.

It's been three years, and you haven't inquired about those rumors and the like?

As the saying goes, there is no impermeable wall in the world, the relationship between Zhang Hao and Liu Xinyu was rumored as early as three years ago, and the rumors have become more and more "detailed" in the past three years.

Huang Baiyan looked at Zhang Hao carefully, and saw that Zhang Hao's complexion changed slightly, but there was also a hint of joy. Seeing Zhang Hao's joy, Huang Baiyan was excited:

Okay, this kid must be Zhang Hao's! In the future, the Dayang Group will also be stable.

Zhang Hao took the newspaper and read it, it was published in the official newspaper of the country of Qixia, "Pearl Daily". Also, such news is not usually published in newspapers.

Nowadays, there are dozens of newspapers in the country of Qixia, but there are still only two most authoritative newspapers:

Dayang Group's "Dayang Daily", and the official "Pearl Daily".

Zhang Hao folded the newspaper and put it away, nodded to the secretary, and said that he knew, so he asked the secretary to stand next to him and listen to the conversation.

The secretaries around Zhang Hao are not very old, and they are all seeds who have graduated from the 'Beidou Academy' in recent years.

It has been seven years since the Beidou Academy, and among the first batch of students, the oldest is 16 years old, and these people have become talents, and even the elites among them can already take charge on their own. A large number of them have entered the important departments of the Dayang Group, such as scientific research, management, military, and even the political level of Ninghe County.

Among them, particularly outstanding management talents will get an opportunity to 'intern next to Zhang Hao', and after studying by Zhang Hao's side for three or five months, they will be parachuted into other important departments.

In the past two years, Zhang Hao has often kept three to five secretaries around him, who are responsible for handling different things, and what they mainly learn from Zhang Hao is the game between the upper echelons of the major forces.

These students are the first batch in the known world to receive a comprehensive education, in addition to spiritual practice, they also study astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry, mathematics, finance, politics, law and management, etc., and in the last two years, they have to choose a major according to their strengths.

The vigorous development of Dayang Group in the past two years is closely related to the injection of these talents.

These young people are full of vigor and forge ahead.

Zhang Hao and Huang Baiyan continued to discuss, and the secretary next to him continued to listen, during which Zhang Hao and Huang Baiyan also asked him a few questions, and finally Huang Baiyan asked Zhang Hao for someone - this secretary is very good, just enough to assist Huang Baiyan in managing the 'Atlantic Group'.

"Would you like to go over?" Zhang Hao asked the secretary beside him.

"Yes!" shouted the other man.

"Then go for it, let it go, and don't be afraid of mistakes. ”

"Yes!"

After the two left, Zhang Hao took out the newspaper again and read it carefully, smiled and shook his head: Next, there will be a little trouble.

In fact, Liu Xinyu had a pregnancy reaction as early as four months ago, but her stomach has become more and more obvious recently, but she can't hide it.

The child is his own. Zhang Hao was 100% sure that the cultivator was very powerful, he could feel the connection with the unborn child in the bloodline, and he could already tell that it was a boy.

got up and came to the window, looking at the bustling city outside, Zhang Hao had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

It's been eight years since I came to this world unconsciously, and now I have my own descendants, which is a happy thing. But...... It seems that this matter cannot be made public...... And the child can only have the surname 'Liu'! The only thing Zhang Hao can do is to take a name: Liu Xinhai

But what made Zhang Hao even more entangled was that there seemed to be no movement between himself and Zhou Xueyao. Cultivators are powerful, but it seems that it is also somewhat difficult to conceive offspring.

At dinner in the evening, Zhou Xueyao looked at Zhang Hao with a cold face. Fairy Zhou clasped his hands to his chest and leaned against the wall with a sneer. There are only a few glasses of cold water on the table.

Paper can't hold the fire, Zhou Xueyao discovered Zhang Hao's 'derailment' three years ago, but today ......

After watching it for a while, Zhou Xueyao suddenly burst into tears.

Zhang Hao suddenly panicked.

It wasn't until the second half of the night that Zhang Hao signed countless unequal treaties before he finally fell asleep tightly with Zhou Xueyao in his arms.

After that, the country of Qixia boiled for a few days, and things calmed down; after the empress had a queen, it was always a good phenomenon, and Liu Xinyu also publicly said: It is a boy, and his name has been decided: Liu Xinhai.

The word "Xinhai" can be said to be a portrayal of the development of the country of Qixia in recent years. Because of the development of the ocean, there is now the country of Qixia.

This unborn child has been identified as the crown prince.

This matter is very important to the political stability of the country of Qixia. In traditional centralized rule, a stable empire needs a sun and a moon. The sun is the emperor himself, and the moon is the crown prince.

The emperor has a queen, which is the premise of a country's stability - at least the civil and military officials, the powerful and the common people, etc., know that even if the emperor dies, the country will be stable and life will continue.

But in the midst of the calm, there is a storm brewing and gradually fermenting.

That is, the war that took place in the Continent of Turbulence, the war between the Holy Fire Sect and the Red Lotus Sect.

Five days after the news of the Empress spread, the war between the Holy Fire Sect and the Red Lotus Sect came into the public's attention. In the past three days, a decisive battle broke out between the two sides at the position of the 'Quicksand River North Directive'. It is less than a thousand kilometers away from the base of the Holy Fire Sect, Jiuyang Mountain!

This has hit the doorstep, and the Holy Fire Cult has gone crazy!

The first crazy move the Holy Fire Sect made was to trade the three northern kingdoms to the Ming Sect, and among these three countries, there was the Jiangxia Kingdom!

Jiang Xiaguo was previously promised to the Ocean Group by the Red Lotus Sect in the form of an empty glove white wolf. Later, the Red Lotus Sect landed from the north, so that the entire territory of Jiangxia Kingdom fell.

However, as long as the Holy Fire Sect has not perished, Jiang Xia Kingdom still belongs to the Holy Fire Sect in name! And now the Holy Fire Sect has given Jiang Xia Guo as an add-on to the Ming Sect, and the Ming Sect has even swallowed it in one gulp.

Things are suddenly interesting.

After that, the Ming Sect provided a huge amount of resources to the Holy Fire Sect. Include...... The diffusion of industrial technology is very serious, mainly because everyone is not stupid, and with the Dayang Group as a reference, three years is enough to change everything.

So a strange decisive battle broke out.

The Red Lotus Sect itself is very large and powerful, and it is also supported by the Ocean Group.

The Holy Fire Sect is already weak, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the shelf is still there, and there is a strong Ming Sect behind it, which is very convenient for the Ming Sect and the Holy Fire Sect to be in contact with the whole territory.

So in this contest, there is also a contest between the Ocean Group and Mingjiao.

The decisive battle that broke out here on the northern tributary of the Liusha River exceeded 10 million casualties on both sides in three days, and the artillery fire changed the terrain for thousands of miles.

How crazy are these three days?

The official newspaper of the Red Lotus Sect published a piece of news: In three days, the Red Lotus Sect fired 8.5 million shells and 120 million bullets, and more than 30,000 runes were used, more than 15 million regiments were mobilized, a total of 26 charges were made, 7.2 million enemies were killed, and 1.5 million prisoners were captured.

Among them, 822 people were killed in the incarnation period (including the Golden Body Realm) and 116 people were captured.

But the Holy Fire Cult also published the news: in three days, the Holy Fire Cult fired 6.7 million shells, 98 million bullets, 100,000 runes and other talisman treasures, mobilized 13 million legions, charged 18 times, killed 6.1 million enemies, and captured more than 2 million.

Among them, 917 people were killed and 83 were captured.

After the news spread, the entire cultivation world was in an uproar. Especially here in the Ocean Group, in the West of the Fertile Continent and other places.

What everyone sees is not who wins, but ...... The new era is even more cruel!

To be sure, the data on both sides are exaggerated. But even if they are all discounted, the two sides combined, there are at least thousands of deaths or captives in the Transformation Stage, and more than 8 million casualties!

And this is just a decisive battle.

In fact, before that, the small decisive battles had broken out many times on both sides, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

But what is most concerning to people, or what makes military strategists and wise men more concerned, is the news revealed behind this decisive battle:

The application of the telegraph changed the battle, and many times the war was only a head-on collision;

Steel began to be used in large quantities, and began to replace dark iron on the battlefield;

Soldiers on both sides began to arm a large number of magic weapons made of steel, including armor, so that the number of casualties was reduced;

There is also - in the case of crazy artillery attacks, the Yuan Infant cannot guarantee safety on the battlefield.

However, the next day, another piece of news was exposed: under the influence of Xinglin Hall, the price of cultivation resources has been greatly reduced in the past three years, so that there has been an explosive period in cultivation;

In other words, almost all of the dead and wounded on the battlefield this time were cultivators above the foundation building stage!

Such a decisive battle was even more tragic than the confrontation between the Loose Sect and the Xuanzhen Sect at the beginning.

On the battlefield, mountains were flattened, river valleys were filled, large rivers were diverted and flooded. The decisive battle area has become a dead land.

A decisive battle has heralded the beginning of a new era.

This is the age of industry, but also the age of capital!

Up to now, the Red Lotus Sect's public financial report on the war is: 320 million high-grade spirit stones for military expenditure.

The Holy Fire Cult is not public, but the Holy Fire Cult has 'sold' five countries to the Ming Sect before and after, accounting for almost one-third of the Holy Fire Cult's area.

On the contrary, Mingjiao disclosed a set of data: In recent times, the foreign trade turnover has reached 400 million high-grade spirit stones!

Although not all of the Sect is exported to the Holy Fire Cult, most of the arms and elixirs are currently supporting the Holy Fire Cult.

Counting the consumption of the Holy Fire Cult itself, the military expenditure is probably no less than 300 million.

After these news spread, the whole society was in an uproar.

War is already frightening and strange, and it is even more expensive.

And that's where the storm began. The casualties of the war have aroused fierce opposition from the righteous and the righteous.

Before the 'Atlantic Group' prepared for its first voyage, the head of the Immortal Yin Sect came to the Ocean Group in person!

(It's a big turn these days, and it's not easy to write.) Thank you for your understanding. )
