Jiang Jiao's 8th Squadron has been on duty at Yongsheng Base recently, and most of the changes here were caused by him.
"Okay, Captain Jiang, I didn't expect you to have the ability in this area." Ding Kui saw the shadow of the formation from the scattered buildings.
"They are all old antiques. They are nothing in front of a magician." A shy smile appeared on Jiang Jiao's face.
"It is indeed a very ancient formation. The light and dark double demon-killing formation. As long as our magicians have the upper hand and drive the enemy's magicians far away, this formation can be worth ten thousand elite soldiers." Liang Chong's eyes were full of surprise.
Jiang Jiao was even more surprised than Liang Chong and said: "Commander Liang, you also know this formation. You are really knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and my subordinates admire it!"
"Wait a minute, what's the 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array'? Why haven't I heard of it?" Ding Kui was embarrassed. As the highest officer here and a child of the famous Wuxun family, he had never heard of such an array. Law.
Liang Chong looked at Jiang Jiao, and Jiang Jiao said sheepishly: "Commander Liang, please tell me, my subordinate only knows a little bit about how to arrange things, so I can't explain it clearly to Team D."
"When humans first fought against the demons, due to the huge difference in physical fitness, humans had to rely on various means to defeat the few demons. The 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array' is one of the earliest formations that appeared in humans. , the founder of the formation has not been found out, but it is certain that he belongs to the Shaodian tribe.
This formation has different layouts during the day and night, so it is called "Light and Dark". And because this formation is specifically designed to deal with demons without the ability to fly, it is called the Demon Elimination Array. The formation relies on disrupting the enemy's vision and hearing. , which plays the role of disintegrating the enemy's fighting spirit, dividing the enemy's formation and using illusions to attack the enemy.
After humans defeated the demons, this formation was used in wars between countries. However, a big loophole was quickly discovered, that is, magicians could see through the layout of the formation from the air. 'It rarely appears in human wars. The military has basically never used this formation since the founding of the Shaodian Kingdom, so you don't know."
Liang Chong explained in detail the history of the "Light and Dark Demonic Slayer Array".
"I have always suspected that I was wrong. It turns out that it really has a hallucinogenic effect. It maintains the advantage of magical power and the conditions are not too harsh. How come the military has not used it before?" Ding Kui didn't understand.
"First of all, this formation is mainly for defense. It takes a certain amount of time to set up. Our country will only use defensive formations in foreign wars. When resisting foreign attacks, it can rarely guarantee an absolute advantage in magical power." Liang Chong also learned from Seen in books.
"That's it, the main defense. If the 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array' is combined with the magic tower, wouldn't it be able to provide perfect defense?" Ding Kui always had some original ideas.
There is no way, people who practice both law and martial arts have their own ideas.
"Well, there is nothing wrong with saying that, but the magicians who are qualified to build the magic tower are all elemental level or above. They cannot participate in the war, so there has never been a 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array' in history. About the magic tower."
Liang Chong finally had the patience to explain to Ding Kui, but any other staff officer would just laugh.
"Only elemental magicians are qualified to build magic towers. No wonder I rarely see magic towers." This question has been hidden in Ding Kui's mind for a long time.
"I heard that it will cost a lot of resources. Ordinary magicians simply don't have such financial resources. Even ordinary elemental magicians may not really be able to build a magic tower."
Ding Kui glanced at Liang Chong and said, "Reading more is really useful. Brother Liang knows a lot."
"No matter how much I study, I will never have as novel an idea as you, hahaha." Liang Chong said half-jokingly.
"The huge resources are those controlled by the Magic Alliance, right? Otherwise, so many big families wouldn't be able to support a magic tower?"
"Yes, all countries have such regulations. All things that magicians can use must first be supplied to the Magic Association. Even the royal family cannot compete with them."
"How come I haven't heard of this rule?"
"This is an agreement secretly reached by the royal family and the Magic Association. This is recorded in historical records. There is no public information to confirm this statement, but the royal family acquiesces."
Jiang Jiao watched Ding Kui and Liang yelling at each other and couldn't get a word in. He didn't know whether to urge them to continue inspecting the base.
"Okay, let's ignore the magic tower for now. The base will use this 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array'. I will take care of the magic power. Fortunately, I have many magician friends."
Ding Kui calculated it and found that Ao Yu, Ao Yan and Shi Jiang could guarantee the air superiority of Yongsheng Base. With the assistance of the Giant Sheep City Magic Guild, there were only a few forces that could overwhelm him in the air.
"If the base is laid out according to the 'Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Formation', then the materials sent before will not be enough." Jiang Jiao was finally able to interject.
"It's simple. Just make a list of what you want. I can't build a magic tower. The 'Light and Dark Demon Slayer Array' is not short of money. I want to rejuvenate this ancient array." Ding Kui thought. Juyang City’s trade routes do not hesitate to invest in military strength.
If you, Zhang Jie, want to build a garrison base, how can you not exchange some benefits for the right of way on Nanqiu County's territory?
Ding Kui had money and Lu's Chamber of Commerce had the goods. Jiang Jiao quickly gathered the materials to set up the "Light and Dark Double Demon Slayer Array", and with the help of Liang Chong, he built the ancestral formation bit by bit.
Mongolians began to appear in Juyang City. The docks received transport ships from the southeast every day. Fruits from Mongolia were already on sale in the market. People kept looking at the vacant houses in the city, and construction craftsmen were busy on the wasteland outside the city.
"The Meng people negotiated good terms with Watson." Ding Kui saw the changes in Juyang City.
"It's not strange. It's abnormal if we can't negotiate well. Do you think City Master Qu is still worried about having no money? I dare say that the city with the highest tax revenue in Nanqiu County this year is Juyang City under Watson's rule." Fei Ze accompanied Ding Kui. Wandering on the street.
"How long can he sit in the position of city lord?"
"It's almost time." Fei Ze paid attention to his surroundings as he spoke, "Yesterday Lu Yang said someone from the Kong family was here."
"Who's here?" Ding Kui walked leisurely, his mental energy already monitoring the people around him.
"The specific status of a collateral clan elder in the Kong family is unclear."
"You write a letter to Kong Ren in my name. I can cooperate with the Kong family on the territory of Nanqiu County. It would be perfect if Li Yan can be replaced." Ding Kui took out a few silver coins from his pocket and threw them to him. A child begging for food.
He now carries loose money, copper plates, silver coins and gold coins with him.
"It's a bit difficult to replace Li Yan. Even Master Zhou Mu may not be able to replace him."
"Write it down. If you can't exchange it, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if they feel they owe me something. I can ask for it in other ways."
Fei Ze bowed his hand and said, "I have learned from my teachings, and my young master's ideas have become more and more comprehensive. It will make it easier for me to do things for you."
"I learned it all from you and Mr. Liu. Come with me to Huashan County tomorrow to see what's going on along the way."
Juyang City is not big, so Ding Kui and Liu Yu quickly walked around.
A fast horse ran toward the military camp. Ding Kui took one look and rushed forward.
"Captain D, Captain Xue is here." The female knight on the horse jumped off the horse and pulled Ding Kui and said excitedly.
"Isn't Xue Sheng always in the camp? Where did he come from?" Ding Kui was confused and touched the forehead of the female knight with his hand, "Are you burned? Bai Qian."
Bai Qian pouted and pushed Ding Kui's hand away, saying, "It's not Squadron Leader Xue Sheng, it's Xue Chong, Captain Xue."
Although Xue Chong has retired, people in the First Brigade will always call him Captain.
"Really? I'll go take a look first, and you can run back by yourself."
Ding Kui took the reins from Bai Qian's hand, jumped on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and urged the horse to run towards the military camp.
"This is so rude, leaving me as a girl here." Bai Qian stomped her feet angrily.
"Haha, in the eyes of the young master, you are just a soldier." Fei Ze naturally wanted to excuse Ding Kui.
"That's right, only a beauty like the eldest princess can fall in the captain's eyes." Bai Qian's tone was slightly sentimental.
Fei Ze smiled and said nothing. He was not in a position to comment on such matters.
"Captain Xue!" When Ding Kui saw Xue Chong from a distance, he jumped off his horse and ran over quickly.
"Haha, congratulations, it's been so long since we last met, and you have become the consort." Xue Chong opened his arms to Ding Kui.
"Hey!" Ding Kui gave Xue Chong a bear hug, "In front of the captain, my subordinates will always be your soldiers."
"Fortunately, I retired early, otherwise it would be a waste to let the flying general be a soldier. Tsk, tsk, tsk, my subordinate is the flying general, and I can brag to others for the rest of my life." Xue Chong is a little thinner than before, but he is very energetic.
"I'm really worried that you won't come." Ding Kui pulled Xue Chong towards his barracks.
"I'm not coming now. We have plenty of time to chat. Let's go see other colleagues first." Xue Chong grabbed Ding Kui with his backhand.
"Ding Yu, blow the assembly call! Brigade Xue is going to review the troops!" Ding Kui shouted loudly.
The horn sounded immediately, and Ding Yu pulled out a horn like a magic trick.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, neatly dressed soldiers ran out of the barracks quickly, and officers held military flags and ran to the designated location. The assembly number is different from the assembly number. Assembly means that they may go out at any time. Armor must be worn and weapons must be carried.
in hand.
Although most of the soldiers saw the one-armed Xue Chong, they all restrained their excitement and lined up faster.
Xue Chong nodded while looking at it and said: "Yes, everyone is still the same as before. No, it should be more like an elite force than before."
"Those are the soldiers you brought out. I will punish anyone who embarrasses you." Ding Kui raised his palm high, starting from his thumb, and curling up his fingers one by one until he clenched a fist.
At this time, Ding Yu trotted up to Ding Kui, stood at attention and said: "Report to the captain, there should be 900 people in the first brigade, but there are actually 900 people. Please review by the captain!"
