Chapter 1578: Dongfang Ancestor
"You have done well in the past few years, but it is not enough, there are thousands of magic guilds in the country, hundreds of thousands of registered magicians, and at least tens of millions of gold coins are consumed every month.
You've only solved a few counties' problems, but you've brought hope, magic is profitable for people's livelihoods, and magicians can support themselves.
I will do my best to promote the laying of railways and the application of railcars, where there are railways, there will be magicians to eat, provided that they are not controlled by others. ”
The last few words are particularly heavy.
To build railroad tracks and lay railways, you must rely on earth magicians, and this is their ancestor in front of you, Ding Kui knows how important Dongfang Wang's promise is.
"Has no one done anything like this before?" Ding Kui felt a heavy burden on his shoulders.
Helping the Magic Guild reduce its dependence on the imperial court, how far-reaching the impact will be He is afraid when he thinks about it, there is a good side, and there is also an extremely dangerous side.
"You don't understand! This civil strife has led to the death of a large number of magicians, and we see a crisis! Magicians should try to stay away from war, especially civil strife, and it is a great sorrow to die at the hands of their own people. Dongfang Wang's tone was heavy.
He has been in Shaodian for more than 200 years, and his affection for his home country is indescribable.
Magicians are no better than knights, there is no bloodline, and in good times you can find new magicians everywhere, and at worst you don't have any.
Accompanying mages have strict rules to keep losses within acceptable limits when attacking other countries or resisting invasions.
However, this civil strife broke out suddenly, and the magicians in the four western states and those who rushed to the war suffered heavy losses, and the magic society faced the dilemma of having the fewest magicians in history.
"If magicians are integrated into people's livelihood and become like a chamber of commerce, I think magicians can be stripped of war. This is Dongfang Wang's wish.
"Impossible! Unless the Grand Alliance decrees death, the imperial courts of all countries will not give up using magicians to fight. Ding Kui poured a basin of cold water.
Dongfang Wang was a little lonely after hearing this.
"Well, the big leagues don't make such rules. His voice was full of melancholy, "I think it is possible to reduce the size of the mages in the army, mages are not a threat to the rule of the imperial court, we just want to live well." ”
"Okay! I've helped with this!" Ding Kui was deeply moved, "Without magicians, the lives of low-level soldiers are more valuable, and many people will die less in each battle." ”
He has a much deeper understanding of warfare than Dongfang Wang, and has fought many battles in Nannuma Prefecture without magicians, and when soldiers become the protagonists of the battlefield, all commanders do not want their casualties to be too large.
On the contrary, there is a large killing weapon in the army, and ordinary soldiers are more likely to be sacrificed.
The two reached a consensus and followed to finalize the details directly. Dongfang Wang has managed the Magic Federation for many years, and his negotiation methods are no less than Ding Kui's.
"Loss, loss, how do you feel that I am repaying the favor. Ding Kui had the word "heartache" written on his face.
"Hahaha, I'll take advantage of your junior?" Dongfang Wang was amused again.
It's been a long time since anyone dared to be so presumptuous in front of him.
"Aren't you going to attack the Yang family's territory, don't worry! I'll find someone to tell Yang Xu, if he dares to violate the rules of the Grand Alliance and do something to you in private, my Shenfeng Valley will fight to the end with the Yang family. Dongfang Wang put down his arrogance.
Ding Kui got up and bowed to the ground: "Thank you Dongfang Ancestor for your protection!"
Dongfang Wang and Ding Zhen have an old relationship, and it is not wrong for him to call Lao Zu, the key is to bring the relationship closer.
He knew that the Shenkong Gate, could think of the Shenfeng Valley, and could be in charge of a country's magic guild, and its strength was by no means lower than that of the Shenkong Gate, and a Yang family without a martial god would definitely not dare to confront it.
......
"Well, look forward to the camp gate, let's go out to patrol the post. Ding Cai led a team of people out of the barracks gate.
The 74th Division was stationed in Xingchao County with the Eighth Army Corps to prepare for the southward crossing of the river.
"Wait!"
Ding Cai and the others trembled when they heard the voice, their faces turned pale, and beads of sweat slowly appeared on the back of their heads.
They slowly turned around and saw a dazzling set of general armor.
"Why didn't I know you were going to patrol the post?" Fan Yuzhen walked over with a sneer.
"It's an order from Lord Ding. "The group of people who are going to leave the camp gate has taken a step back, except for Ding Cai.
Green tendons appeared on Ding Cai's forehead.
"Oh, sir, there's a bit of a registration in the military order book. ”
He hurriedly came to Fan Yuzhen's side and whispered in her ear: "Give me some face, and I'll explain to you later." ”
In front of the door, whether it was the guards or the people brought by Ding Cai, they all turned their heads to look elsewhere, not daring to look at the couple brushing the flower gun.
Fan Yuzhen gritted her back molars and said, "You'd better explain it to me." ”
Falsely passing on military orders is a big crime, and she has to give Ding Cai a step down.
"Haha, hehe, that, please go down with your subordinates to check the military order book. Ding Cai dragged his wife into the camp.
The group that had been following him scattered in a hurry.
"Isn't this the fact that the escort army has just arrived in the next town, I heard that a wonderful performance has been arranged tonight. Ding Cai cautiously explained.
"The Eighth Army is also here for the Art Troupe, and they will come to us to perform tomorrow, why are you in a hurry?
Fan Yuzhen is not a jealous person, but she can't help but sarcastically mock Ding Cai.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Ding Cai hurriedly shook his hand, "I mainly want to meet a few brothers, inquire about the military situation, and watch the performance just by the way." Besides, what is there to see in the grass platform team of our legion. ”
"Hey, aren't you the first loyal servant, and you still ask others to inquire about the military situation, and I will be ashamed of you when you say it. "How can Fan Yuzhen be so easy not to fool.
"When my lord is too busy, it's normal to forget to inform me. Fortunately, Ding Cai is thick-skinned, and others can't see it when he blushes.
Fan Yuzhen said: "The entry of the art troupe into the regular army is one of the key points of military reform, and military reform is the brainchild of the master. ”
"You can't sue the black!" Ding Cai's heart was empty, "I boasted about Haikou in front of my new colleagues, and I just wanted to take them to see the world, and I will definitely cheer when the art troupe of our legion comes tomorrow." ”
If someone else said this, he would definitely turn his face, and he would desperately show his loyalty to the master, but he would have no temper when he was scolded by Fan Yuzhen.
"The Judge Advocate General's is active again, and you beware of being caught hurting your feet. Fan Yuzhen was furious.
"It's okay!" Ding Cai blinked, "I pressed a forged military order under the military order book, and it is true that you use the big seal." ”
"Nonsense! Your brigade will be responsible for logistics in the next six months!" Fan Yuzhen was a little relieved.
"Ahh
The river is about to be crossed, and logistical work is the last thing all officers and men want to do, and who knows what the battle situation will be like after half a year.
