Zhou Shu looked at Yin Yuzhu opposite him angrily and said.
"I want to make a deal with you!"
Yin Yuzhu didn't pay attention to Zhou Shu's tone, stared at him, and said seriously.
"Why do you?"
Zhou Shu snorted coldly.
"Just because I have been living in the demon world for hundreds of years!"
Yin Yuzhu said, "Based on my understanding of the demon world, I know more than all of you combined!"
"You want to survive in the demon world, I can help you!"
When she spoke, her little face raised slightly, looking confident.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly and looked at the Yin Yuzhu carefully.
That's right, she has a loli face, but she is actually an old guy.
An old guy who has lived for thousands of years! Although she has been sleeping most of the time for more than a thousand years, the total time she has been awake must have been at least one or two hundred years, right?
All in all, the time she has to live in the demon world may even be longer than the time she lived in the Ten Kingdoms Continent.
"Without you, we can still survive in the demon world."
Zhou Shu said coldly.
Yin Yuzhu has lived in the demon world for hundreds of years, but so what?
If Zhou Shu is willing, he can surpass Yin Yuzhu in this in minutes.
Don’t forget, Zhou Shu has Zhuang Zhou’s dream of a butterfly!
If he takes the risk and dreams of monsters at any time, his knowledge of the monster world will definitely increase rapidly.
But if you really do that, it will feel a bit like seeking death.
Zhuang Zhou's Mengdie Mind Technique is not something that can be used casually.
"If you want to make a deal with me, you must first show your value."
Zhou Shu continued.
"Isn't it just about benefits?"
Yin Yuzhu curled her lips in disdain and said, "I see how miserable you people are. I know that there is a rat tribe not far from here. They like to hide things. If we kill them, they will probably be enough for you."
It’s been a while.”
"Do you think we can eat what rats eat?"
Zhou Shu said.
"Are you stupid or am I stupid?"
Yin Yuzhu rolled her eyes and said, "Rat clan, not rats! Monster beasts are different from ordinary beasts, okay?"
"The food the rats eat is not necessarily worse than what you eat. And if you go and hide in this hole first, what is the difference between you and the ground rats?"
She looked around with some disgust. There was nothing in this cave, it was extremely shabby.
"Tell me first, what do you want?"
Zhou Shu looked at Yin Yuzhu and knew that she would not reveal the location of the rat tribe easily.
"First of all, I am not a prisoner, you cannot restrict my freedom."
Yin Yuzhu raised her green-green fingers and said, "Secondly, you must meet my requirements for my food, clothing, and housing."
"Give up."
Zhou Shu didn't even think about it, got up and walked out.
"Stop!"
Yin Yuzhu said angrily, "Why don't you act according to common sense? The price is not right, you bargain! I didn't say you can't bargain!"
"The location of the rat tribe, the daily meals, and an extra fish for you, the rest is non-negotiable."
Zhou Shu said coldly, "If you agree, it's a deal. If you don't, forget it."
Yin Yuzhu's eyes widened, and she couldn't figure out why the man in front of her was so shameless, and his good skin was wasted!
I have such important information, why do you want to add one piece of fish to my meal every day?
Do you think I am a little girl who has never seen the world?
"No, at least two! One steamed, one braised!"
Yin Yuzhu said angrily.
"No, only grilled fish."
Zhou Shu said, everything in the camp is getting started, and the soldiers are making do with what they have to eat. She still wants to order food?
I don’t even get this kind of treatment!
Yin Yuzhu breathed heavily, her chest heaving violently. For a long time, she wanted to grit her teeth and say, "Okay, deal!"
"Exit the previous cave entrance, one hundred and thirty miles to the southwest. The rat clan's lair is underground, and the entrance is at - remember it, so you don't blame me for not finding a place when the time comes."
Yin Yuzhu said something like big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate, and then started to drive people away.
Zhou Shu didn't intend to stay with her any longer, so he ordered Wang Xin to take good care of her, and then went straight to the place where the army was forged.
"Your Majesty."
When Xiao Jianghe saw Zhou Shu, he bowed respectfully.
"Jianghe, come to life."
Zhou Shu said that originally he wanted Xiao Jianghe to take care of Yin Yuzhu, but after thinking about the task of killing the rat tribe, he thought it would be most appropriate to send the guilty army there.
The guilty army, the former Wei soldiers, were the elite of the Wei Dynasty. In terms of individual strength, they were stronger than Mi Ziwen's armor-piercing soldiers.
Originally, the Hundred Battles Armor-Piercing Soldiers wore Cangyun Armor and were stronger than the Sin Army. However, in the previous battles, the Hundred Battles Armor-Piercing Soldiers were human shields and suffered heavy casualties. They have not yet recovered their strength.
Although the Sin Army also suffered a lot of casualties, they still have a total of 6,000 people, accounting for one-fifth of the Ten-Nation Alliance Army.
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Xiao Jianghe said seriously.
"According to this, there is a demon tribe more than a hundred miles away, which is the rat tribe."
"According to the intelligence, their strength is not too strong. You led people to destroy them."
Zhou Shu gave the order directly.
"Understood."
Xiao Jianghe said, he was about to get up and take action.
"Wait a minute."
Zhou Shu stopped him, "Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Go to Deputy Pavilion Master Shi. There are still some idle Qiankun bracelets in the pavilion. You all should take them with you to hold the trophies."
Before leaving the battlefield of Ten Kingdoms Martial Arts, Zhou Shu asked all the weapon casters to work hard to cast the Qiankun Bracelet. In the end, they cast dozens of Qiankun Bracelets.
When they broke out of the siege, some generals carrying the Qiankun Bracelets died in battle, and the Qiankun Bracelets were not retrieved.
After arriving at this camp, the Qiankun bracelets that were originally distributed were all taken back. After all, they were only temporarily lent to the soldiers. Most of the Qiankun bracelets are the public finances of Huaxia Pavilion. Unless they have made meritorious contributions,
Only then will one be rewarded.
According to the current rules of Huaxia Pavilion, when someone needs it, they can apply to borrow the Qiankun Bracelet. After all, it is much more convenient to use it to carry things.
"I understand, my lord, do you have anything else to explain?"
Xiao Jianghe said.
Zhou Shu pondered for a moment, and since Xiao Jianghe led his army to surrender to him, he has never been far behind in killing the enemy. He has seen the performance of the whole army.
He is still very satisfied with Sin Army now.
"Although the intelligence says that this rat tribe is not strong, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems. Remember, the safety of our brothers is the top priority in everything."
Zhou Shu said solemnly, "You can leave the green hills without worrying about having firewood. If something goes wrong, retreat first."
"I have sixteen words of motto, please remember it."
"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!"
Xiao Jianghe looked solemn. The more he thought about these sixteen words, the more subtle they became, and his respect for Zhou Shu in his heart reached a higher level.
Sure enough, he is worthy of being a prince. He keeps saying that he does not know how to lead troops in war, but he casually says that it is the supreme art of war.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice!"
Xiao Jianghe said sincerely.
"Okay, let's go. When you come back, I will give you a lot of rewards."
Zhou Shu said with a smile.
"Pa bang bang——"
Just as Xiao Jianghe left, he saw Meng Bai walking over, clapping his hands.
"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!"
Meng Bai said with emotion, "Sixteen words capture the essence of guerrilla warfare."
"It's a pity that, my lord, you are not determined to lead the army. Otherwise, I am afraid that the number one general in the Ten Kingdoms would have to be you."
Meng Bai was also filled with emotion. When he met Zhou Shu at the beginning of the year, he once had the idea of accepting Zhou Shu as his disciple. However, he was about to go on an expedition and wanted to observe Zhou Shu before making a decision.
As a result, by the time he returned from the expedition, Zhou Shu had already become famous. If he wanted to accept a disciple, he was no longer qualified...
And then——
Zhou Shu took one step at a time, and now his status and status were above him. It was too late for him to regret it.
Originally, he didn't think about this incident very much, but just after hearing Zhou Shu's sixteen-character motto, he felt a wave of regret in his heart.
Why did you put on airs back then?
How great would it be if we directly accepted him as a disciple?
What a good young man in the art of war. He has never led an army, yet he can speak such admonitions that understand the essence of the art of war. If he had devoted himself to the art of war, then I would be in vain, wouldn’t he have a successor?
Thinking of this, he wanted to slap himself a few times.
"General, don't say that. I am a layman in the art of war."
Zhou Shu shook his head and said, "I just said it casually, it can't be taken seriously."
Meng Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "My lord, you just said it casually, and you made so many people in the art of war feel ashamed."
"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue them. These sixteen words can be regarded as the highest principles for us to settle down and live our lives now."
Meng Bai continued, "My lord, it's a pity that you don't practice the art of war."
"Nothing to regret."
Zhou Shu shook his head and said, "Forging soldiers alone is enough for me to study. We have no shortage of famous generals now. Why should I bother to do that?"
"General, what do you want from me?"
Zhou Shu changed the subject and asked.
"I'm going to go out to explore the terrain and come here to tell you, Your Majesty." Meng Bai said, "General Wang and General Tang have already been dispatched. In the next few days, Your Majesty, you will have to worry more about the camp."
"I'm here, don't worry."
Zhou Shu said, this is the lair that Yaolian chose for himself. There is no demon king nearby, not even a big demon.
Meng Bai and the others are all at the first level of martial arts. If you be careful, you shouldn't encounter any accidents.
It is also a good thing for them to go out and familiarize themselves with the terrain. After all, they will have to take root here for a long time. As generals, it will definitely not work if they are not familiar with the terrain.
"Your Majesty, I just heard you say that you want General Xiao to leave the camp. Is it really okay?"
Meng Bai hesitated for a moment, then asked.
"No problem."
Zhou Shu said.
"That's good."
Meng Bai nodded.
"By the way, I almost forgot."
Zhou Shu stopped Meng Bai who was about to leave, patted his head, and said, "General, Deputy Pavilion Master Shi and I have formulated a points system. All weapon casters in the camp can obtain points to exchange for weapons.
The secret recipe and the art of forging weapons."
"I thought that there must be incentives in the military to increase the enthusiasm of the soldiers."
Meng Bai nodded. The current situation of the Ten-Nation Alliance is a bit special. They don't know if they can return to the Ten-Nation Continent alive. Even if they can return, it will be a troublesome matter for each country to determine this military merit.
Meng Bai, Wang Mu and others have also been discussing this matter for a long time, but now they have problems even surviving, so how can they get any rewards?
"Your Majesty, when we get back on our feet, this matter will definitely be put on the agenda."
Meng Bai said, "Now we have nothing, the reward——"
"Who said we have nothing?"
Zhou Shu asked rhetorically, "There are a lot of materials for making soldiers in the warehouse of the Demon Realm Branch of Huaxia Pavilion."
"General, even if you have established a good system and rewards, don't worry. I'm not exaggerating. I still have some good things in my hands."
Zhou Shu continued, "You can use points to exchange for high-grade weapons, or even exchange for the Qiankun Bracelet."
Points, in Meng Bai's view, are military merit. This kind of thing has its own examples in the military, so it is not difficult.
"I understand. I will discuss it with General Wang and the others later."
"Okay, you can just contact Deputy Pavilion Master Shi directly."
Zhou Shu nodded and said, he still has some marrow-cleansing pills and realm-breaking pills in his body, which can also fill up some reward pools.
In the demon world, the strength of the Ten-Nation Alliance is his strength, so it is not the time to hide his secrets.
There is also the casting of weapons, which must be accelerated——
After Meng Bai left, Zhou Shu thought for a while, got up and went to the foundry house under construction.
The cave discovered by Yaolian covers a huge area from the underground to the mountainside.
In order to prevent the movement of the forging soldiers from affecting the rest of the soldiers, the foundry room was deliberately located far away from the largest cave.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Zhou Shu walked through a long corridor and came to a cave.
Shi Songtao, Li Chengliang and others are busy polishing the stone walls and installing the casting furnace.
"Your Majesty."
Seeing Zhou Shu, all the smiths greeted him one after another.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Zhou Shu waved his hand, "Do you need my help?"
"No need."
Shi Songtao opened his mouth and said, "Pavilion Master, this place will be completed soon. When the time comes, we can start forging troops immediately."
Shi Songtao said with some excitement that in Huaxia Pavilion, casting soldiers was the most important thing, and building the casting house with his own hands gave Shi Songtao a great sense of accomplishment.
"Your Majesty, Deputy Pavilion Master Shi has already told us about the points system of Huaxia Pavilion. I would like to ask, can iron smelters also use points to redeem it?"
The master craftsman Li Chengliang asked.
He had once seen Zhou Shu use his iron hand, which made him envious. No weapon maker could refuse the temptation of forging weapons with his bare hands.
If possible, Li Chengliang would even be willing to use all his wealth, including all the secret weapons-making recipes in his mind, in exchange for the training methods of the iron-smelting hand.
Of course, he knows that may not be enough.
"Of course."
Zhou Shu nodded and said, "But I have something to say first. It is extremely difficult to practice the iron hand. It is not something that ordinary people can achieve. I do not recommend that you exchange it."
Everyone nodded, but it was obvious that they might not listen to Zhou Shu's words.
Before meeting each other, everyone thought that they would be unique geniuses, and no one thought that they could not become an ironsmith.
Zhou Shu didn't say much. As long as they accumulated enough points and exchanged them for iron-making hands, Zhou Shu would not refuse.
"I am now releasing the first mission of the Huaxia Pavilion Demon Realm branch."
Zhou Shu coughed lightly and said, "I want to forge a weapon now, and I need five people to help me. The task reward is 10 points. Who is willing to take the task?"
