Gu Mu took several of his men and left angrily, and the night banquet continued
"Everyone, this attack on Blackscale City is the largest battle our army has fought on the battlefield in the past hundred years.
Not only is it of great significance, it will also completely change the offensive and defensive patterns on the battlefield, which is very important to each of us.
I hope that everyone, no matter how powerful they are, including families and chambers of commerce, can participate and contribute if they have the money and the strength to do so.
For this reason, I specially set up affiliated coalition forces at the gray stone base in the rear, and established five affiliated armies: giant Rakshasa, violent wind, violent rain, sky thunder, and lightning."
The second clone held a wine glass, stood among a large group of affiliated forces, and delivered a speech passionately.
Originally, he wanted to use this gathering to inspire the affiliated forces of the First Face Group to provide money and effort to form an affiliated force army.
But as soon as he started talking, he reacted temporarily.
Since we want to organize these chaotic forces, why not combine the five affiliated legions that are being formed in the country?
Anyway, he is short of money now, so all the expenses can be paid from public funds, which solves his urgent need.
Moreover, his five affiliated legions have already taken shape. They can be directly brought to the Gray Stone Base and then joined by other affiliated forces of the first face group. They will soon take shape and form combat effectiveness.
There are too many people, no more than a legion of two million people.
This arrangement also has the biggest advantage. With more than half of his people, he can firmly control the newly formed subsidiary legion.
For longer-term considerations, the Langya Empire's influence can be extended to the first face group through these subsidiary forces.
"Commander-in-Chief, are there any practical benefits to our efforts?"
"Commander-in-Chief, we small and medium-sized forces are said to be affiliated forces, but in fact they are self-sufficient. Survival is not easy, so there is no extra strength."
"That is, our sect's strongest army has been drafted away, and we still need to pay for it?"
However, the representatives of affiliated forces, large and small, at the scene did not buy it, few supported it, and many offered opinions.
"Quiet!"
The second clone didn't take it seriously and raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Of course there are benefits, and we will never let everyone pay for it in vain.
After occupying Black Scale City, there are thousands of untapped resources and minerals in this war zone.
There are also non-important military resources, shops, etc. in Blackscale City, as well as future taxes, which will be allocated according to the size of military achievements.
I, Chi Man, will never make a mistake!"
"Undeveloped resources and minerals are unclaimed land, why should we distribute them?" a young force representative shouted unconvinced.
The second clone didn't pay attention at all. There is no free benefit in this world. I believe most people present will understand.
If I don’t understand, I can only say that I still lack the beating from society.
Sure enough, an obviously older companion next to him scolded the young man in a low voice: "Stop shouting. Do you think that the big forces will give up those unowned resources to us after they worked so hard to capture Black Scale City?"
"If that's the case, it's okay. If we want to get those mineral resources after the war, the price we have to pay may be even greater."
The Huayun Sect rules a smaller plane in the First Face Group, and its strength is second only to the eight major sects. It represents Elder Gu Hua, and originally attended the banquet just to socialize.
After hearing the promise of the second clone, his eyes gleamed. This may be an opportunity for the sect to take a further step.
Gu Hua was still hesitating, but Cui Qi, the elder of the Jinshi Sect beside him, could no longer bear it and said loudly: "Commander-in-Chief, our Jinshi Sect is willing to send 300,000 troops.
It’s just that our forces are not as good as the big sects and lack equipment, especially starships.”
"Yes, our starships are all bought from big forces at high prices, and most of them are old items that have been eliminated.
Even if we form a legion, we won’t be able to fight, right?”
As soon as Cui Qi finished speaking, Gu Hua beside him was unwilling to wait any longer and immediately said: "Commander-in-Chief, if you can provide a starship, our Huayun Sect is willing to send 500,000 troops."
"Provide starships?" The second clone hesitated.
He originally thought that these forces in the First Face Group, especially Huayun Sect and Jinshi Sect, which were only second to the eight major sects, should be quite wealthy.
Putting together to form an affiliated legion, not to mention making a huge fortune, he wouldn't have to pay for it. Unexpectedly, he didn't even have a starship.
In fact, he was wrong. These sects do have money, but starships cannot be built by ordinary forces, and the resources and technical reserves required are too complicated.
Even the starships built by his Langya Kingdom are just experimental products.
"Commander-in-Chief, we can pay for it!"
Suddenly, a round fat man shouted, and it was like a fairy voice that woke up the second clone.
I wish I could slap myself, you are such a pig!
If you don’t have a starship, you can have money and resources!
The second clone immediately changed his voice: "There is no problem at all in providing a starship.
The preferential price is three million spiritual stones for one ship, or two scrapped ships plus one million for a brand new starship!"
"Three million spirit stones are so cheap. If we buy it from a big influence, the minimum price is five million, and we still need to provide some materials."
"Yes, it's a good deal to use two old ships plus one million, right?"
"I'll trade. I, the Black Water Tribe, will use ten old ships plus five million to trade for five new ones!"
The people around him were shocked at first, and then they were ecstatic and shouted wildly.
The number of starships can be said to be a measure of a force's strength. Whoever has more starships is more powerful.
Even if you have money, you can't buy it on weekdays. What's more, with the war going on, the eight major sects have even fewer for sale.
Now someone has finally sold it, and it's so cheap. You can't miss it even if you sell it. Whoever misses it will regret it for a hundred years.
"I, the Jinshi Sect, are buying two hundred ships in cash!" Cui Qi raised his hand in the air, completely ignoring his status as a ninth-level powerhouse. His eyes were blood red as if he was about to fight with someone.
"We, the Huayun Sect, are also buying two hundred ships, which contain 300 million spiritual stones, as an advance payment!" Gu Hua followed closely, and he became even more ruthless.
Directly use force to send three rings containing 100 million spiritual stones to the second clone's hand with spiritual power.
"There are also five hundred starships from our Lingshi Sect, followed by 1.5 billion Lingshi!"
The most ruthless one is the fat man, the young master of the Lingshi Sect who can't spend all his money.
The ten big golden rings on his hands, together with the big gold chain around his neck, were pulled off and flew to the second clone's hand.
"I~~~like fat people~~~~!"
The second clone bit his tongue hard before looking away from the pile of golden rings in his hand.
He felt that the fat man was his lucky star!
This is 1.8 billion spiritual stones. He has never seen so many spiritual stones before. He has made a fortune!
Looking back, it will be enough to expand the army by another 30 million, and there is still more to spend!
There is no need to worry about domestic resettlement, coastal suppression of survivors, investment in research and development, etc.
