Chapter 178: Countdown to War

As he spoke, it was the clouds' turn to choose a camping spot.

The clouds walked very slowly, he thought as he walked, and when he stood in front of the map, he had already considered his choice, only to see him casually, marking the map on Moyun Ridge The lights were lit.

There was a whisper in the conference room, Qi Shao's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly stopped the cloud that wanted to turn around and leave, and asked kindly: "Moyunling is about five hundred miles away from Xiulu Town, and Xiulu Town is about three hundred miles away from Jieyin City. ”

After a pause, Qi Shao slowly continued: "The first wave of clans fought for four years before advancing the battle line to a place about a thousand miles away from the affiliated cities of each sect, and now, you want to establish a city at the end of this front, have you considered it, once your city is established, your clan will become the salient of the entire front, so that once the demon clan launches an attack, the first thing to bear the brunt of is the location where your clan is located." And as far as I know, the strength of your team is not outstanding......"

At this time, Jin Teng Zhenjun on the rostrum interjected: "Qingzhu's seventh team, although it is not ranked first in numbers, but its strength is really good, cough ...... They're really good. ”

Can Jin Teng Zhenjun say that Yun Duo's team has two Jin Dan, can he say that Yun Duo himself is a master who can challenge beyond the ranks?

I can't say that.

Because, the fact that there are two Jin Dan in the cloud team is not a very honorable thing - it involves a scandal in the door.

Until now, the people in the sect still do not admit that many of the foundation building monks of the Iris Valley faction have successfully concluded the Jindan to become Jindan monks, but admit that there are two Jindan monks in the cloud team. It is equivalent to exposing the infighting in the door to the world.

However, Jin Teng couldn't help but stop it - because the seventh team was super strong, the door center set the seventh team as the trial point in the door, which no one could hide, and with the passage of time. Sooner or later, it will be exposed. And the safety of this trial team is related to whether those second-generation people in the gate can have fun in the demon beast forest.

So, if the reckless behavior of the clouds cannot be stopped...... Ah, at this time, I'm afraid it's too late for Menzhong to consider another trial team.

Jin Teng knew many insider stories that low-level monks were not allowed to know, such as: Jin Sheng Zhenjun, the host of the previous wave of clans, was ambushed by the demon clan near Moyun Ridge, resulting in serious injuries. When the news that he would lead the second wave of the team to participate in the battle was confirmed, Jin Sheng Zhenjun once secretly told him. The terrain around Moyunling is complicated, and once the team advances to the vicinity of Moyunling, they must remember to be careful, and if possible, it is best to avoid the Moyunling area.

These insiders are bound to be unaware, but ...... Jin Teng Zhenjun's tone paused slightly, and immediately changed the topic: "There is a Qingyun Dapeng entrenched on Moyun Ridge. This Dapeng is already the sixth order, so it's so. Within a range of five hundred miles near Moyun Ridge, particularly powerful demon beasts did not dare to survive.

Ahem, in other words, the area around Moyun Ridge is also a suitable place to camp, as long as you can deal with Qingyun Dapeng, you don't have to worry about the attacks of other demon beasts......"

Qi Shao immediately added: "Kunpeng uses dragons as food. I like to feed on long insects and monsters, and there is this Qingyun Dapeng, and ordinary demon beasts generally dare not approach Moyunling.

However, the speed of Qingyun Dapeng is too fast, and it is instantaneous, so it is not easy to encircle and suppress Qingyun Dapeng. Moreover, the area around Moyunling is mountainous and the mountains are undulating, so this terrain is most suitable for ambushing monks, but if you can occupy Moyunling......"

Qi Shao groaned, of course he knew that the first wave of the Xuantianmen team had suffered a big loss near Moyunling, and he was thinking about the wording in his mind, at this time, Yun Duo, who had already considered the pros and cons, replied calmly: "I have already thought about it, so I will camp in Moyunling." ”

After a pause, without waiting for Qi Shao and Jin Teng to come up with a wording, Yun Duo followed up and added: "The affairs of the world have always been how high the benefits are, how big the risks are, and the benefits without risks are terrifying to enjoy, for fear that there are some unknown traps buried in this benefit."

Moyunling protrudes about 300 miles from the other teams, almost at the edge of the battle line formed by the first wave of teams, I know this, but the second wave of teams, since they want to continue to move forward, they must always cross this edge and continue to move forward, at this time, camping on the edge of the battle line, the distance to enter the battlefield is the shortest, and the ability to support the battlefield is immeasurable......"

Yun Duo's gaze swept over, and he found that his overseers Ji Wuyuan and Qian Sen's faces were green, he smiled proudly in his heart, and continued: "...... Once the teams enter the battlefield, if we have a temporary camp near Moyunling, the teams will have a strong support point at the edge of the battle line. ”

These words made Jin Teng and Qi Shao's eyes gradually light up, and the persuasion they had thought of immediately looked at and gave up...... Wait, see what he can say.

I only listened to Yunduo continue to explain: "Moyunling is backed by mountains, the river valley in front of it is enough to develop millions of acres of arable land, and the mountains behind it contain twenty-one metal mines, as long as we gain a firm foothold in Moyunling, this place can develop into a very prosperous big city in the future, and I am sure that the development potential of this city in the future is ......."

Yun Duo suddenly paused, and added carefully: "...... It's huge. ”

Yunduo's pause, everyone understands, it is estimated that Yunduo originally wanted to say that the development potential of building a city in Moyunling is much greater than that of the towns chosen by other teams.

Everyone is from the same sect, and it is not good to belittle others and elevate themselves at will, so Yunduo only talks about the potential of building in Moyunling here, avoiding comparisons with each other. This, everyone understands in seconds.

Of course, a few of you here are not fools, Yunduo established a team camp in Moyunling, which contains huge strategic value and economic value, everyone can see - Moyunling is located on the edge of the battle line formed by the first wave of clans, and the strategic goal of the second wave of clans is to continue to advance into the depths of the forest, and strive to push the city line into the forest for another 500 miles.

If Yunduo can really gain a foothold on Moyun Ridge, then the cities behind him will become inner cities. In this way, the purpose of expanding the range of activities of human habitation has been achieved.

Of course, the first few teams that built the city. Although it is now the inner city of Moyunling, these teams that have set up temporary camps on the inner line are also tasked with advancing the front - which means that if they encounter any unexpected situation in the battle, Moyunling will be their only support point, and if they can't figure it out, it will be the only way to escape.

Kinten hasn't thought it through yet. Qi Shao had already decided, and he interjected categorically: "I don't know what confidence you have to guarantee that you can build a city on Moyunling, but I admire your courage and courage."

Building a city in Moyunling is crucial to the entire battle situation, and I have the right to decide to tilt resources in your favor, so what support do you need, I can think about it......"

Yun Duo shook his head slightly: "Speaking of resource tilt." My expectations are not too high, I only ask for a concession, and I ask for certain specific policies for the Moyunling area. ”

Don't want money and policy, this novel approach made Qi Shao's eyes shine.

To be honest, Qi Shao didn't have much of the resources in his hands, and now that the war had lasted for four years, the battles of the various sects were already very weak. And since the war in the monster forest was ignited. The sources of various cultivation resources are also becoming more and more narrow, resulting in more and more scarce resources. The elixir and weapon resources that Qi Shao can now grasp in his hands. Actually, there are not many sincerity.

As for the manpower issue, the monks who can fight in the Demon Beast Forest, Qi Shao can't command them—because the manpower is managed by the various sects themselves. Therefore, a small number of people Qi Shao can mobilize, such as the war overseer, but Qi Shao can't expect them to really obey his orders. Sacrifice one's life and forget to die to fight for other factions.

All Qi Shao could think of was to let the other teams move their camps closer to the Moyun Ridge area, so that the seventh team could get some support points, and by the way, supply the other party with some scarce elixirs and spirit stones. But...... If there are more people, there must be fewer people. This involves the interests of many parties, so what Qi Shao said in his mouth was very generous, but he was actually apprehensive in his heart.

Now, Yunduo only asks for policy tilt and no money, and Qi Shao is very satisfied with this.

To be honest, in a powerful society, the last thing that those in power are afraid of is to give others policy preferences, because in a powerful society, those in power seek to maximize their interests by renting power, and the so-called power leasing is nothing more than allowing the other party to violate the ban and exceed the existing rules.

"Ha, I don't have much power in my hands, Qingzhu Zhenren, what are your requirements? Let's hear it first, if it is within the scope of my power, I can make an exception for you, but ......."

Yun Duo immediately continued: "Of course, I don't ask much, if I can gain a foothold in Moyunling, the temporary camp of the seventh clan can be opened to other clans, and other clans are allowed to come to my camp to settle down temporarily, or set off from my camp to the depths of the forest......"

Qi Shao let out a long breath, this was exactly what he was for. He nodded heavily: "Okay, if the camp you set up can be open to other clans, then things will be easier, and I can give you greater convenience within my power, such as ......"

Yun Duo nodded, and took Qi Shao's words confidently: "To build a city, the amount of materials required is extremely large, especially to build a city on Moyun Ridge, which is equivalent to putting a knife on the throat of a demon beast, just to maintain the operation of the protective array, the number of spirit stones consumed every day is a terrifying amount."

Therefore, I asked for the opening of a cargo delivery line in the camp of the clan, so that I could purchase the necessary supplies for the operation of the city from the rear......"

Qi Shao was slightly stunned, he never imagined that Yunduo's request was so simple, of course, Qi Shao also understood the meaning of this request - it was nothing more than money. More than 90% of the cultivation resources in the cultivation world are produced in the Demon Beast Forest, and Qingyun has opened a cargo express line, does he only want to transmit goods in one direction to the front line?

It's nothing, though. Qi Shao nodded without hesitation: "I agreed, it's not a big deal, well, your camp is at the forefront, I allow you to open a trading market in the camp and trade with the monks in the forest, and the profits from the market are allowed for you to keep for yourself to maintain the operation of the city." ”

Qi Shao's last statement made Yun Duo slightly stunned for a moment-why, the city he built, the profits he obtained by fighting life and death in the forest, still need to hand over profits to others? So, will the person who collects this profit extend a protective hand when he is in danger?

They won't.

Yun Duo knew that Qi Shao's philosophy was different from his own. In the eyes of these people in Qi Shao, the people of the mundane world are just like the cattle, horses and sheep they raise, they are objects. In times of crisis, they don't care about the life and death of ordinary people, but sacrifice ordinary people to "take care of the overall situation", but the benefits obtained by ordinary people. but they will be at their disposal.

By extension, the monks in the sect are also equivalent to the cattle, horses and sheep of the upper class, and the interests they generate must of course be controlled by the upper class, otherwise it will subvert their three views.

Well, the clouds don't want to argue with them right and who is wrong right now. He didn't want to give the benefits obtained by Moyunling to others, Qi Shao's order seemed to be a gift, and in the eyes of Yunduo, it was simply a snake to add to it, but ...... Since it's cheap to stand, don't sell it, which doesn't prevent him from making a grateful appearance.

He rushed to Qi Shao again and again: "Thank you." Qi Zhenren, thank you Qi Zhenren for your support, since that's the case, there's no problem, I'll go down first, and let the eighth team come and choose. ”

Qi Shao was in a good mood, he nodded with satisfaction, and reminded the following teams in a loud voice: "The seventh team chooses to build a city in the area of Moyunling, if the seventh team can gain a firm foothold." The rest of the teams will benefit, so. The rest of the people choose to camp at a camping point, so they might as well be closer to Moyunling, so that they can huddle together and keep each other warm. ”

The leaders of the eighth and ninth teams, who were waiting for the candidates in the audience, rolled their eyes and thought to themselves: "Jin Sheng Zhenjun has not been able to gain a firm foothold near Moyunling. Team 7 ...... Hey, mourn for their teammates. ”

The people who despise Yunduo, as well as Qi Shao on the stage, never thought that the express delivery business that Yunduo said was actually a long-distance teleportation array, and it was not only about goods. And also...... Mortal.

But this point, the members of the seventh team in the audience had already vaguely guessed, after all, as soon as Yun Duo came back, he began to build his strange long-distance teleportation array in the annex of Xuantianmen, and the nature of his teleportation array was not hidden from everyone. It is reported that Yunduo has begun to contact Upper Valley City in South Korea to inform them to prepare certain procurement materials and manpower. And the South Korean side actually had a response, Yunduo's purchase list was transmitted, and the other party replied with a quotation .......

Yunduo, who had chosen the temporary camp, did not stay in place for long, and directly led his team back to the other garden.

As soon as he entered the door, Yun Duo immediately gathered his own men, and he looked at everyone's faces repeatedly, wondering for the right people in his heart.

After being stared at for too long, Chang Lei couldn't help but interject: "Uncle Shi, what are you thinking about, say it, let us hear it?"

Yun Duo's gaze swept over Ding Ling, thought for a while, and shook his head gently: "I want to leave a person in charge of presiding over the teleportation array in Fenglingdu, this person's character must be extremely strong, not afraid of the oppression of others, and know how to protect his own interests." ”

Chang Lei puffed up his chest: "Where does Uncle Shi look, isn't such a person me?"

Yun Duo shook his head: "None of the fighters belonging to the clan can be left, we have been training and cooperating with each other for several years, and we will change hands again...... Square peg. ”

Biting is not suitable to stay, on the one hand, he is now the only Jindan monk in the team who can fight, on the other hand, Biting is weak after all, and it is okay to say in the face of others, once he faces the oppression of the powerful Yuanying boss, Biting will ...... Immediately knelt down.

Qingzhu is also not suitable, although he is nominally a Jindan monk who leads the team, but Qinglin's same personality is not firm, and besides, Qinglin is in charge of instrument manufacturing...... Yun Duo's head turned, okay, this human hand, it really has to be a green coffin.

The part presided over by Qinglin belongs to the category of logistics supply. The various materials on the front line are not complete, and if Qinglin sits in Fenglingdu, it will be able to collect more comprehensive materials. Although he has a little weak character, however, the worldview of this world is to obey the powerful, and if Yun Duo wants to choose a person who meets his own conditions, he may have to cultivate it himself, and this training process may take more than two generations of people to complete.

Because of the change of people's thinking, a generation is completely unable to do it, he must first cultivate a generation, create a man-made relevant cultural atmosphere, and then spend several generations to let people live in this specific cultural atmosphere at all times, so that it is possible to achieve a real change of thinking.

It may take two or three generations of sustained effort, and it is impossible for him to pick and choose from among the crowd now.

In this case, it is a green alder.

Yun Duo gave a little green liner and ordered: "It's Senior Brother, Senior Brother stays in Fenglingdu, what kind of manpower you need, you can choose, even if you recruit a few casual cultivators from outside." I left that teleportation array, and my senior brother's task was to take care of the teleportation array in Fenglingdu, and by the way, he was responsible for maintaining our cargo delivery network, and at the same time responsible for collecting refining materials. ”

As for how to maintain the transit maintenance conveyor array of goods, Yunduo did not give too many instructions. Qingzhu is a Jindan monk, let him establish his own power from now on, if Qingzhu can't even do this, then he will simply go home and sleep.

Yun Duo didn't leave more than enough manpower for Qing Chun, and he left half of the Qi cultivation cultivator who was in charge of the book house in the refining workshop, and he took the rest with him. The people who originally belonged to the Alchemy Workshop of Iris Valley, the personnel in charge of production and production in the Refining Workshop, and the monks who were selected to participate in the war, he had to take them all away.

Walking out of this pupil-shaped city along the protective embankment of Fenglingdu, someone reminded him: "Master, let's leave like this, what should that county official Liu Ziqing do, don't you still have to assign us some secular personnel?"

Yun Duo looked back at the majestic Fenglingdu, at this time, in the Fenglingdu conference room, the teams had finished the camp selection work, and the remaining teams were stationed behind Moyunling, close to the location where Yunduo camped, and there was only a joint team composed of four sects, including Liuyun Sect, Taixuan Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain, and Tiancang Mountain.

At this moment, in the other two ferries on the river, the pre-war mobilization work of the rest of the alliance teams is also nearing the end - this means that the second Demon Beast Forest War has begun.

In the seventh team, except for Liu Ziqing, there should be no one who has not arrived - the two war overseers also did not appear. (To be continued......)
