Luo Ning said in a deep voice: "It's very simple. The key to the victory or defeat of a war is nothing more than soldiers, equipment, armor, military rations, etc. As long as there are sufficient reserves, the soldiers on the frontier will have the confidence to fight against the evil! But... the Babel Tower is up there.
After the first demonic invasion war, the losses were severe. Today's Tower of Babel only has 120,000 troops, more than half of which are under-trained recruits. Secondly, heavy artillery, artillery shells, crossbows, etc. are far from enough to cope with the next battle.
A war, I think the situation in Dragon Territory should be similar to ours in this regard."
Mingyuechi nodded: "The old commander is right, Longyu's troops, equipment, etc. are far from being able to support the next battle."
…
Lu Ning frowned slightly and said: "As for soldiers, recruitment is already happening everywhere. Aren't the dozens of counties under the jurisdiction of Bailu City in the north already recruiting new soldiers urgently?"
"yes."
Lin Xingchu handed over his hand: "Just recruiting soldiers requires food and salary, and under the current circumstances, Bailu City's finances are already stretched thin, let alone paying all the food and wages. After several battles, we don't even have enough to pay the existing sergeants.
, even now some soldiers of the patrol corps no longer receive monthly military pay."
"It has actually reached this point..."
Lu Ning gritted her silver teeth and said, "Hubu, how many gold coins do you have left that you can give to Duke Xingchu?"
"Running out."
The Minister of Household Affairs frowned: "The gold coins in the treasury are only enough to pay the 200,000 troops for half a year."
"Only two hundred thousand?"
Lu Ning was surprised: "There are at least 500,000 troops in the Northern Front, Dragon Domain, Tower of Babel and Bailu City alone. How will the military salaries of this mere 200,000 troops be rationed?"
Lin Xingchu clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the weather in the south is going well this year and the harvest is quite good. In addition, Tianfeng City's treasury is already strong. The general believes that Lord Tianmugong should allocate another 300,000 troops for food and salary. So
It is enough to cope with the tight situation on the northern front. Moreover, we should also recruit troops from dozens of counties in Lingnan. Otherwise, relying solely on the north will not have enough troops. After all, we not only have to deal with the first battle, but also the second battle behind it.
games, the third game and even more.”
"Mr. Tianmu, did you hear that?" Lu Ning lowered her eyes and looked at her grandfather.
Xiyang clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, the south is far from being as smooth as Duke Xingchu said. In fact, there has been an unprecedented locust plague. In addition, the people of the empire have no enough food to eat, so what else?
Can bear the burden of heavy taxes."
Lu Ning frowned lightly and said: "Grandpa, once the northern defense line is breached, the Xia clan will be doomed. I order you to provide a year's worth of food and salary for an army of 300,000 people. This is an imperial decree and you are not allowed to disobey it!"
"this……"
Xiyang gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee, and said, "I obey the order!"
"also."
Lu Ning's eyes were dark and he continued: "Within half a year, you must recruit and train 300,000 new soldiers and hand them over to Duke Xingchu. Do you understand? The south has abundant military resources, I know that."
"But..." Tianmu Gong looked troubled and said: "Three hundred thousand soldiers are equivalent to taking most of the young people in the south to serve as soldiers. Who will farm and who will weave?"
"Mr. Tianmu, do you want to resist the decree?" Lin Xingchu said calmly.
"No...I don't dare..."
Xiyang gritted his teeth: "Okay, I obey the order!"
Lu Ning took a deep look at her grandfather and said: "The war in Xueling is the biggest event of our Xia Clan. There is nothing more important than this. I hope all of you will do your best to protect our Xia Clan."
Fight for your homeland, instead of sitting back and watching the bloody battles in Dragon Domain, Babel Tower, and White Deer City, all you care about is your own pocket."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
All the ministers knelt down one after another.
Only the three of us from Longyu stood alone, a little embarrassed.
…
"Master Yuechi, what are your requests?" Lu Ning asked.
"The more heavy artillery and shells, the better."
"good."
Lu Ning looked at a civil servant wearing a black robe and said: "Lei Liesi, the firearms and baggage of Longyu will be handled by you, and it must be solved. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Just like that, after a while, the court dispersed.
Return to Dragon Domain and enter the command hall.
"really weird."
Feng Yu gently placed the war helmet on the table, frowned and said, "Lu Ning is too talkative today. It actually feels like he is a different person. Why?"
I smiled slightly and said, "This is now, then that is."
"How do you say that?" She was surprised.
Mingyuechi also cast a doubtful look.
I leaned on the window sill and said: "It's very simple. There used to be 400,000 forbidden troops, plus 100,000 elite Yanyang Legion as a trump card. Xiyang is Lu Ning's grandfather, and he is also Lu Ning's trump card. The army that Xiyang controlled in the past was enough
Fighting against Lin Xingchu and Luo Ning, but now the balance has been lost, Lu Ning has no trump card. To put it bluntly, with Lin Xingchu's military strength, it is just a thought to replace her, so Lu Ning begins to tremble. Her throne
It’s not that strong anymore.”
"It's a pity that Duke Xingchu doesn't have the desire to be a self-reliant mercenary." Mingyuechi said quietly.
"yes."
I frowned: "If Lin Xingchu was sitting on the throne, then many things could have been avoided. Maybe Li Yong would not have the chance to lead an army of 500,000 people into the depths of the Northern Territory."
"correct."
Mingyuechi smiled slightly and said: "Junior brother, there is one more thing I can only entrust you to do."
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"It's still a matter of money." She looked to the north and said: "According to the news brought back by the battle patrol dragon knight, after Li Yong ruled the Demon Realm, he opened the Demon Realm channel again and summoned a group of extremely elite demons from the Demon Realm.
The Crystal Knights have come to the real world. These Demonic Crystal Knights are extremely powerful, and their hearts have become magic crystals, which can provide powerful breath of demonic flames. Therefore... I order you to sneak into the depths of the Demonic Domain and kill at least 2,000 of them.
Magic Crystal Knight, then collect at least 500 magic crystals with a quality of 5 or above and bring them back to me. The more magic crystals you bring back, the more generous rewards I will give you!"
"Oh, is the magic crystal useful?" I asked.
"have."
She nodded and smiled: "Crush the magic crystals and add them to the shell fragments, which will cause more severe damage. Lei Liesi of the Xia clan has been purchasing high-quality magic crystals. One kilogram of magic crystals can be exchanged for at least 100,000 pieces.
Gold coins, so if you bring the magic crystal back, I can ask Feng Yu to go to Lei Liesi to exchange for money, so that we can have money to recruit troops."
"Can't you just ask Lu Ning for it..."
"We still need to make enough food and clothing by ourselves. After all, Lu Ning gave us luggage and supplies, but he was never willing to give us gold coins."
"That's right... okay, I'll go."
"Um!"
"Ding!"
System prompt: You have accepted the mission [Destroy the Demon Crystal Knight] (SS level ★★★)!
Mission content: Go to the Demonic Territory, kill at least 2,000 Magic Crystal Knights, and collect at least 500 high-quality Magic Crystals. The more Magic Crystals you bring back, the more generous rewards you will get!
…
Another exciting task, I like it!
He summoned the thunder that broke the wind and rushed out of Dragon City. His body disappeared into the snow curtain and merged with the vast flying snow north of Dragon City. In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the dragon city for dozens of miles and bypassed several
The defense line of the Demon Realm army continued to move forward. When they approached the mission destination, they found that they were already close to the palace of Liyong, the Lord of the Demon Realm. I hope I don't provoke him, otherwise I might have to go to waste again and use me.
The invincible return to the city method.
"Chichi~~~"
In the wind and snow, a very mighty knight appeared, holding an ice crystal long sword and riding a demon war horse. The armor all over his body was also inlaid with pieces of magic crystals. He looked like a luminous knight.
Like a war general, it shines brightly. The war horse snorts and spits out streams of flames. When it gets close enough, the attributes have already been read out——
【Magic Crystal Knight】(Spirit level monster)
Level:215
Attack:52000-68500
Defense:40000
Qi and blood: 800000
Skills: [Ice Crystal Stab] [Breath of Demonic Flame] [Potential Explosion]
Introduction: Demonic Crystal Knights are monsters from the depths of the Demonic Realm. These Demonic Crystal Knights possess such powerful magic flame power that they form a magic crystal heart in their bodies. They have strong combat power and once became one of the strongest armies in the entire Demonic Realm.
Now the Lord of the Demon Realm, Li Yong, has summoned these Demon Crystal Knights again, and is about to start a bloody storm.
Insight: Taking frost damage takes an additional 50% damage
…
With high health and high attack, I'm afraid it's a bit slow to kill. I can only rely on the effect of picking and slashing to quickly spawn monsters. However, since I want to pick and slash, I have to mass spawn, so I continue to move forward, and there are spawns every few meters on the map.
A Demonic Crystal Knight came out, with a moderate density, and rode past. In the blink of an eye, nearly two hundred Demonic Crystal Knights were attracted, and they turned around and started to attack.
The ice crystal long sword poked randomly, and suddenly "chichichi" burst out with damage figures close to 1w. I was stunned when I saw it. I kind of underestimated this level 215 super-advanced monster. Fortunately, Zhao Yun's famous general skill was activated, but
It is also safe. Continuous attacks can keep the blood volume above 50%. Summon dragons and wolves to assist in the battle and constantly move around to ensure that every time it attacks the half-blood magic crystal knight, there must be a lot of monsters behind it.
Otherwise, the effect of picking and slashing cannot be maximized.
For a moment, the "chichichi" indigo sword light erupted again and again, flying a series of magic crystal knights into the air, knocking away nearly 50% of their energy and blood, and killing them vividly!
After all the magic crystal knights are killed, clean up the battlefield. About every 5 magic crystal knights will burst out a magic crystal. The quality is between 1-10. Half of the magic crystals can be used as quest items. The quality is too high.
Throw away the low-quality ones directly. Magic crystals of the same quality can be overlapped, in groups of 100, which saves packaging space.
They continued to fight like this until about five o'clock in the evening. Suddenly, a loud bell echoed in the air, and the last general soul of the Tianxuan Group's studio finally awakened at this moment!
