Fighting is about fighting for money and food. Lin Xiao looked at this report and realized this sentence again. The same is true in the world of immortality. Fighting is about fighting for resources. After a battle, the Tiansheng Sect’s many years of savings were gone. Even the money they had made by turning into warmongers was gone.
All the Xuan Jings were thrown in.
"How to award rewards is a problem. If you don't do it right, big trouble will happen."
The next thing that gives Lin Xiao a headache is the rewards for these 6,000 or 7,000 people. It's okay for the Tiansheng Sect. If it's really not possible, use the sect's merits to top it first, but those casual cultivators and other sect disciples will not recognize your merits.
point.
The only thing Tiansheng Sect can get now is the corpses of more than 10,000 monster beasts. Of course, this is also a huge wealth, and its value will not be less than several million Xuanjing, but it cannot be used at any time.
, those monster materials are given to casual cultivators, but they can’t use them either.
Lin Xiao rubbed his head, stood up and left the camp, patrolling the camp. The entire camp was filled with the smell of blood and screams, all coming from the wounded. After the excitement, the entire camp fell into a trap again.
In the doldrums.
Things harm their own kind, and when the monks see the corpses, they will also feel sentimental. They were once living people, but now they are all dead.
"Head"
"Chief Zhang, how are the statistics of the battle achievements going?"
"It's not out yet. It still takes time. I don't have enough manpower. There are too many things that need to be counted."
"It's okay. If you have time, I will send an order. Regardless of their status, the monks participating in this battle will receive two rewards. The first one is the reward they deserve for their military merits, and the second one is awarded by our Tiansheng Sect. It is regarded as a heavenly reward.
The Holy Sect’s sincerity for the human race”
"Ah, Master, this, this, our financial resources will be beyond our reach."
"It's okay. We have food and shelter. Since we want to get two rewards, we have to give us time to make statistics. The Black Wind Valley camp will begin to retreat tomorrow. All of them will be withdrawn to Gongming City. Only two hundred people will be left here to guard and monitor.
In addition, we should change the method of rewards and tell them directly that we can’t bring out more elixirs, magic weapons, or talismans now, so the rewards can be converted into mysterious crystals or monster materials, which they can choose by themselves, but the price will be higher.
According to the market price”
"I understand, Master"
Zhang Mingtang was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately understood that six to seven thousand people had gathered in Gongming City, and everyone had materials for rewards. They would not have to spend the money in Gongming City by then, and even the Tiansheng Sect would have the right to negotiate.
At that time, the value of various resources must have plummeted. In fact, Tiansheng Sect did not need to pay so much, but it had gained a good reputation. Zhang Mingtang couldn't help but praise Lin Xiao in his heart.
Lin Xiao didn't know what he was thinking. He just felt that the Black Wind Valley was not suitable for staying for a long time. It had no profound energy at all and was not conducive to cultivation and healing. In fact, the place where you really want to stay for a long time must be a place with spiritual veins.
Just fine.
Soon Zhang Mingtang spread the news, and the whole camp immediately became excited. Everyone's favorability towards Tiansheng Sect also exploded. After all, the disciples of Tiansheng Sect took the lead in this battle, and now they are so generous. Naturally,
I think Tiansheng Sect is pretty good.
By the next day, the monks in the Black Wind Valley camp began to retreat. The disciples of the Tiansheng Sect rushed back from Jingzhou and killed hundreds of dragon horses. They could no longer be used as war horses, but they could still be used to pull carts.
Yes, hundreds of vehicles were pulling the seriously injured people on the ground, and special escorts were also sent out.
Then came the casual cultivators and the other sect disciples. After the Tiansheng sect disciples were gone, it was another day before hundreds of carriages came back to pick up the trophies, mainly the flesh and blood of the monster beasts.
Hundreds of people worked for three or four days to extract all the more than 10,000 monster beasts, separate the inner elixirs, fur, bones, claws, tusks, etc. and get millions of kilograms of flesh and blood.
Don't waste it. If you don't finish it, it's good to go back and make it into jerky or something like that.
All the storage bags that Tiansheng Sect can use are full, but hundreds of cars still can't pull it, and it will take at least two or three trips.
"Master, this is the material for the fourth-level mutated wind-chasing wolf."
Zhang Mingtang handed over the materials of the fourth-level monster to Lin Xiao alone. This was Lin Xiao's trophy. No one dared to swallow it, and the other monks could not use it.
"Not bad, we finally recovered some losses."
Lin Xiao nodded. The price of monster materials increases with the grade. An ordinary first-level monster only costs about a dozen yuan to a hundred mysterious crystals, a second-level monster costs several hundred to several thousand mysterious crystals, and a third-level monster costs
Thousands to tens of thousands, at least 100,000 mysterious crystals for the fourth level. When the time comes, bring them to Qi State, and maybe you can create a fourth level magic weapon.
In fact, Lin Xiao suffered the biggest loss in this battlefield. There were more than 100 dead disciples alone. The system deducted more than 10,000 points from him. He also spent 3,000 on protective shields, and there were more than 2,000 scattered others.
, Fortunately, he asked Zhang Mingtang to accept a group of disciples before the war, otherwise the points would really be cleared.
"Master, now that the crisis in our Tiansheng Sect has been resolved, how do we deliver the news?"
"Exaggerate the casualties several times and tell others that the Tiansheng Sect is unable to fight anymore and don't expect us to come to the rescue."
"Here, head, the other states and counties are easy to talk about, but the Danyang Sect..."
"Same, don't forget, the beast tide is not over yet, who knows when it will start fighting again, and there is also the Thorn God. If you don't retain some strength, you don't know how you will die by then."
"I understand. If the casualties are exaggerated three times, it's more than half."
Zhang Mingtang replied that of the eight thousand people, only a thousand or so were actually killed, including more than a hundred from the Tiansheng Sect and two to three hundred from the other sects. The rest were casual cultivators, but there were actually many injured.
Need time to recuperate.
"In addition, you can't transfer all our people to Gongming City. You know what virtues the casual cultivators have. Then they will definitely fall into a carnival. To put it harshly, they will become degenerate and relaxed. We need to transfer more of our people there.
Shanmen and Baiwu Mountain, if you practice diligently, many people will surely break through. We must learn from it and then stand up."
"clear"
"In addition, spread out more spies. The intelligent beast has not been killed yet, and it is a fox. Foxes always hold grudges, and they might come back, so we must be vigilant."
"Yes, I will leave this matter to Bai Xixi and Li Mingyang. I will leave a few more in Zifu at the Black Wind Valley camp."
"Okay, I need to go to Gongming City to take charge. If you message me about anything, I will come immediately."
Lin Xiao nodded, and then returned to Gongming City with a group of disciples. Gongming City was large and could accommodate tens of thousands of people, so it was not crowded when so many people came in.
After another three days, the statistics of Tiansheng Sect's battle achievements have been released. Everyone can go to Tiansheng Sect's management office in Gongming City to redeem their battle merit rewards and get the money. Most people fell into a carnival, except for a few people.
, chose to retreat.
Lin Xiao also understood these reactions. During those days of the war, everyone was under great mental pressure. Now they need to relax and vent their energy, so the wine and meat in Gongming City have become extremely popular. Even rice wine, which has always been a bad seller, has been sold out.
, and the theater was packed every day.
After the war, drinking a glass of wine and listening to an opera became something that many people found extremely satisfying.
However, the disciples of the Tiansheng Sect still did not relax. Thousands of people were still stationed in Baiwu Mountain and the mountain gate, patrolling day and night, and spies riding intact dragon horses continued to enter the Chen Kingdom to inquire for news.
The Siming Mountain side also received a message from Lin Xiao. After knowing that the Tiansheng Sect was unable to fight anymore, they were very disappointed. Wang Dao did not have the courage of Lin Xiao to launch a desperate charge to defeat the monster and continue to play a war of attrition.
Five days later, a piece of bad news came. Because the monks in Baiyan Prefecture were not united, the border defense line was breached by monsters. At least three thousand monks were killed in battle, and thousands more casual cultivators fled. Among the remaining people, some from the eastern prefectures and counties
Disillusioned with the internal strife in Baiyan Prefecture, the supporting troops no longer directly assisted in the battle and returned to Baiyan Prefecture to station defense at the border of Baima Prefecture.
The entire Baiyan State suddenly entered a state of collapse. Except for garrisoning a few third-level spiritual mountains, the remaining monks had no ability to fight back. They could only allow tens of thousands of monsters to wreak havoc. Watching them break through the low-level spiritual mountains one after another, countless mortal monks fell to the ground.
For food for monsters.
Moreover, the collapse of Baiyan Prefecture also led to loopholes in the defense lines of the two prefectures and counties in the north and south of Baiyan Prefecture. To the south of Baiyan Prefecture is Tiannan Prefecture, and to the south of Tiannan Prefecture is Tianyun Prefecture.
Originally, Tiannan Prefecture was not very strong, and put 70% to 80% of its strength on the western border defense line. Now that Baiyan Prefecture collapses, it is very likely that tens of thousands of monsters will go south. If they really do that,
Tiannanzhou may also be defeated because of this.
Therefore, Tiannan Prefecture had to abandon the border defense line and retreat to two third-level spiritual mountains. The remaining troops were deployed at the border with Baiyan Prefecture. In the hinterland of Tiannan Prefecture, a stricter wall clearing was implemented, giving up one or two
The lower level Lingshan Mountains were then gathered into the state, and all the people in the state were the third level Lingshan Mountains. For this reason, Tiannanzhou still had to give up millions of mortals.
What Wang Dao was most worried about has happened. If Tiannan Prefecture collapses, then Tianyun Prefecture will follow. With the strength of Tianyun Prefecture, it will be extremely difficult to fight on two fronts. Maybe some territory will have to be given up by then.
, gathered the troops, and as a result, Tianyun State's strength will suffer heavy losses again.
This is an unsolvable problem. In addition to strength, it cannot be solved by ingenuity. Wang Dao repeatedly sent messages to Lin Xiao, but Lin Xiao could not come up with a better solution.
However, when Lin Xiao heard that the mortals from Tiannan Prefecture had begun to move to Tianyun Prefecture, he immediately became interested and immediately sent a message to Wang Dao, asking him to open the border and let those mortals in. If Tianyun Prefecture was lucky enough not to be invaded,
If it is broken, then these mortals will be of great use in the future.
Wang Dao agreed. Anyway, these mortals will die if they don't run away. Even if Tianyun State is attacked, they will die. So what if we give them a little hope?
So soon, Tiannan Prefecture set off a trend of people going south to seek refuge. Countless mortals went south along the road. The sadness was naturally extremely unbearable. However, Lin Xiao sent people to Tianluo City. Once there were people from Tiannan Prefecture,
When the mortals came in, their children were immediately tested for their spirits. As long as they had spiritual roots, they were immediately brought back to the Tiansheng Sect. Their mortal family members were also brought along. Wang Dao was stunned by Lin Xiao's actions.
