Wu Sheng praised Li Chengdao for being smarter and more capable than Li Yuanba, but Li Chengdao bowed his head and remained silent.
Li Yuanba was a stain on the Li family, and Li Chengdao didn't want to answer the question, lest Wu Sheng think carefully about Li Yuanba's affairs.
"Separate these barbarians. As long as I am strong and strong, the rest can be used as meat and vegetables, and the corpses can be used as puppets."
There are 80,000 barbarians, but it would be good to have 20,000 strong men who can be trained to become dead soldiers.
Eighty thousand men, half men and half women. There are only 40,000 men. Among the 40,000 men, half are strong, that is, 20,000.
"This slave takes the order."
Li Chengdao immediately went down to do some work.
The demon looked at the ghost girl, but the ghost girl didn't speak.
Wu Sheng handed over the task, and Li Chengdao immediately took it. This was to gain benefits.
The martial saint leads the dead soldiers, and the ghost girl leads the ghost soldiers.
Now Wu Sheng has no generals under his command. After Li Chengdao trained these barbarians into dead soldiers, Li Chengdao became the general who commanded the army.
From then on, he was no longer a dog slave, but a general of the ghost clan.
Li Chengdao fabricated lies and deceived the barbarians, saying that Wusheng Guinu had arrived and would turn these barbarians into immortals.
Men and women are separated, and the stronger men are given priority.
Manzi didn't know whether it was true or not, but Manzi who was in good health rushed to join the first batch.
The ghost girl turned around and asked Wu Sheng: "Husband, do you want to use Li Chengdao?"
The Martial Saint left behind many generals, especially at the mountaintop lake outside the Hera Pass, there were almost fifty generals.
When he was sleeping, Wu Sheng ordered the demon spirit to send someone to guard him.
But the demon spirit didn't send anyone to guard it at all, and Long Chen killed all the generals and dead soldiers.
In the end, only Xia Feng and Qin Hao were left.
Xia Feng was beheaded by Long Chen in the valley, Qin Hao was nowhere to be found, Wu Sheng had no generals available under his command, and he urgently needed someone to lead the army.
What does it sound like for a mighty martial sage who doesn’t even have a general named Zhen under his command?
"Yes, he has good cultivation, is smart enough, and is a capable general."
Wu Sheng admitted his intention.
The ghost girl said worriedly: "Back then, Li Yuanba..."
Wu Sheng said: "Li Chengdao and Long Chen have a family feud and a national hatred. They are fighting to the death. It is impossible for Li Chengdao to seek refuge with Long Chen."
Li Chengdao planned to kill the Long family, and Long Chen led his troops to destroy Nanliang.
Long Chen hated Li Chengdao, and Li Chengdao also hated Long Chen. The two were incompatible with each other and could not live together.
"Yes, but the army must be controlled by the husband."
The ghost girl reminded Wu Sheng that after the barbarian army is trained, it must be controlled by Wu Sheng to prevent Li Yuanba from running away with his soldiers like before.
Although Li Yuanba is capricious, he has a knack for winning people's hearts.
The soldiers under his command were completely devoted to Li Yuanba. Wherever Li Yuanba went, the soldiers went.
"I see."
Wu Sheng sent a message to Yuecheng and ordered the 10,000 dead soldiers stationed in Yuecheng to set off immediately and rush to the mountain pass camp.
In half a day, Li Chengdao sorted it out, and 24,000 strong barbarians were selected.
Li Chengdao selected three tribal leaders as generals, each of whom commanded the barbarians of his own tribe.
Returning to the Martial Saint, Li Chengdao knelt down and kowtowed: "I have selected twenty-four thousand six hundred and seventy-seven strong men according to the king's instructions."
Wu Sheng nodded and said with satisfaction: "Okay, let them station in the military camp on the left."
Li Chengdao sent an order to the three leaders, and the barbarians stationed themselves in the military camp on the left.
Returning to her body, the ghost girl asked: "Is there any news about Wang Er?"
The purpose of the ghost girl's trip was to ask about the ghost fetus.
Li Chengdao looked ashamed, knelt down and kowtowed, and bowed to the ghost girl: "Back to the queen, my subordinates are incompetent. They searched all over Xixia, Eastern Zhou and Daliang, but they couldn't find any trace of the Son, and General Qin Hao couldn't find it either."
The unknown feeling in the ghost girl's heart became stronger and stronger.
Maybe, my precious son is really dead.
No, how could my son die? My son is the Son of God.
"Look again, Wang Er must be somewhere, we must find him."
The ghost girl was unwilling to give in and ordered Li Chengdao to continue searching.
Li Chengdao kowtowed and agreed: "I have received the order, and I will look for you again."
The bodies of Gui Tai and Qin Hao have long been gone. Even if the ghost girl digs three feet into the ground, she still won't be able to find them.
The ghost girl had been pregnant for two hundred years before the ghost fetus was left, and she couldn't bear to part with it.
Relatively speaking, Wu Sheng is not that concerned about ghost fetuses.
"How are the armors and weapons ordered by this king prepared?"
Li Chengdao reported back: "The slaves sneaked back to Daliang and found their former ministers. They are secretly building ordnance. Tens of thousands of them have been made and are being transported to the east near Shuohai City via waterways."
"My slave is bold and asks the king to send troops to help my slave go to Shuohai City to receive weapons."
The ghost girl frowned and said, "Why was it transported to Shuohai City?"
Shuohai City is in the east, very far away from the ice sheet, one is in the west and the other is in the east.
Li Chengdao explained: "The defenses in Xixia and Eastern Zhou were too tight, and the transportation of tens of thousands of ordnance could not be concealed, so we arrived at Shuohai City by water."
Ordnance and armor are very heavy and must be transported by horse-drawn carriage. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty is Long Chen’s base camp, so taking the Eastern Zhou route is definitely not possible.
Tens of thousands of barbarians were captured in Xixia, and the defense must have been very strict.
Therefore, neither Xixia nor Eastern Zhou could go, and could only go by sea.
Although Shuohai City is far away, it is safer.
Wu Sheng said: "The sea route is also possible. Shuohai City is on the border of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the defense there is not strict."
"Just wait a few days. When these people are trained, I will bring them to you."
Wu Sheng didn't want to use his own dead soldiers, but wanted to use these new people.
Li Chengdao was impatient, worried about delaying the matter, but did not dare to object.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Chengdao retreated.
The useful barbarians have been selected, and the rest are old, weak, women and children with no use.
The ghost girl ordered that each of the tens of thousands of newly selected ghost soldiers be given a taste of human blood, so that these ghost soldiers would fall in love with the taste of human blood and stimulate their desire to invade the Central Plains.
The demon spirit had been waiting for a long time and immediately commanded the ghost soldiers to separate.
There are almost 60,000 people left. If they are all taken down, every ghost soldier can taste a mouthful of human blood.
The ghost soldier drank human blood for the first time, and he had never felt that warm feeling before.
After drinking the blood, the ghost soldiers began to eat human flesh, digging out the hearts and livers for a full meal.
All 60,000 people were eaten in less than an hour.
It's ridiculous that the barbarian wanted to become an immortal, but in the end his body was gone.
After drinking human blood, the barbarian began to mutate, his muscles became stronger, his canine teeth slowly grew longer, and his cultivation began to grow.
These ghost soldiers howled and howled, saying that they had not drunk enough and wanted more human blood and flesh.
The demon spirits appease the ghost soldiers and let them wait for winter to come.
When the blizzard comes, they can eat human flesh and drink human blood as much as they want.
The ghost soldiers are very much looking forward to the coming of winter.
...
Cloud City.
Long Chen rode to the east gate, and the soldiers on the city immediately reported to Donna.
By the time Donna came out, Long Chen had already arrived at the General's Mansion.
"How's the situation?"
Long Chen dismounted and Donna replied: "Everything is normal in Cloud City. All the barbarians who left the border have been withdrawn. Those who were kidnapped have not been recovered."
Long Chen nodded and said: "My fault, I didn't stop the barbarians when they came out of seclusion. Who did this? Li Chengdao or the ghost?"
Long Chen only read Feng He's letter and didn't know the specific situation.
