Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 152 The Ruins
Demon army headquarters.
The holy envoy with twin ponytails was sitting on a chair, listening to the chief of staff report on the latest battlefield information:
"Guo Huaian has already established a firm foothold in Wumeng Town and Qitu Mountain. He now has a complete and solid flank. It is no longer easy for us to make a breakthrough.
"There is news from Jizhou City that a large number of retired soldiers from Dusi have been recruited. Currently, nearly [-] people are undergoing training. It is expected that the field army will be replenished in the near future, and there may be more in the future.
"Several military factories and arms sects in Lingdong have received new orders from Dusi, and the production of various weapons and ammunition is being stepped up overnight.
"Major farms and food processing plants have also received new large-volume orders... Some major hospitals in various cities have also received dispatch orders, and a large number of doctors and nurses are preparing to go to field hospitals...
"The imperial envoy from the capital of Yan Kingdom arrived in Jizhou City. His first action was to concentrate his efforts on tracking down our agents and spies in the urban area. A large number of sects are undergoing strict interrogation and screening..."
After telling all the news, the chief of staff paused and made a final summary:
"As we had expected, under the dual pressure of the sudden attack of the miscellaneous army and the advance of the border troops into the Changling Mountains, the war machine of the Yanguoling East Military Region was completely activated.
“Their attention has been completely directed to the battlefield.
"Our first phase operational objectives were successfully achieved."
The Holy Envoy nodded slightly when he heard this, and turned to look at the old man in black robe: "How are you preparing for the Changling Mountains?"
The old man said calmly and calmly: "The monks are already in place, the array layout is completed, and the ruins can be opened at any time."
The Holy Envoy stood up, his big shining eyes full of brilliance: "Give me the order to start action plan No. [-] immediately!"
The chief of staff and the old man in black robe accepted the order and said yes.
......
Street tavern.
Aunt Yun, who was manicuring her nails, glanced up at the short-haired man standing upright in the room: "I thought you could bring Yang Jing's head back this time."
The short-haired man raised his head slightly: "That kid is as timid as a mouse. He ran away before I even finished warming up. He ran too fast and there was nothing I could do."
Aunt Yun said "ha": "Are you being merciful? Last time he let you live, and this time you will reciprocate?"
The short-haired man suddenly became furious, his face flushed and he said: "I am incompatible with him, how could I intentionally let him go? If I encounter him next time, I will behead this thief!"
Aunt Yun wanted to say something else, but the man sitting at the tea table making tea spoke first:
"Winning or losing is common for military strategists, not to mention catching and fighting each other. It is easy to defeat the opponent, but it is indeed much more difficult to capture and kill them."
The speaker was a middle-aged man with an average build and average appearance. He asked the short-haired man to sit down and drink tea: "Jiang Bai, have you seen Su An?"
The short-haired man took the tea cup and drank it without saying anything. Then he scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, Lao Su. I was too preoccupied with fighting Yang Jing to pay attention to him."
Aunt Yun rolled her eyes aside.
The ordinary man said, "It doesn't matter."
Jiang Bai was a little embarrassed: "How about I go find him specially? Isn't it just a familiar face? I'll treat him to a drink. That's okay, right?"
Aunt Yun sneered and said to the ordinary man: "What am I saying, he shouldn't be allowed to take this task. He's a rough guy with a head full of muscles and can't do anything but fight."
Jiang Bai defended himself angrily: "Who said I can do nothing but fight? I can also lead troops. Last time at the border of Bohai Country, I took down one of their divisions with a company!"
Aunt Yun chuckled: "If you leave a company of soldiers outside and fire blanks, and you go in and blast the division headquarters yourself, does that mean you can lead troops?"
Jiang Bai wanted to refute, but couldn't find the words. He scratched his head and head anxiously, and finally muttered: "They were attracting the enemy's attention from the periphery, why are they called blank guns?"
Aunt Yun was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore and concentrated on her fingernails.
"According to the latest news, the ruins of the Changling Mountains are about to be opened. The Yan State authorities are not aware of this yet, so we have to remind them."
With that said, the ordinary man looked at Jiang Bai, "You go first to explore the path. The opening of the ruins is of great importance. We must get the 'core'."
Jiang Bai was immediately overjoyed, and his chest muscles thumped loudly: "Don't worry, I'll take care of this!" With that, he turned around and went out to make preparations.
Aunt Yun glanced at the ordinary man, frowned and said, "Old Su, is it appropriate to leave this matter to him?"
The ordinary man said calmly: "Don't he like fighting? Let him attract the firepower first."
Aunt Yun suddenly understood, and her eyes when looking at ordinary men were a little more strange and wary.
The demon clan had been preparing for a long time in the Changling Mountains and was very powerful. Jiang Bai ran over recklessly, saying that he was exploring the way but actually he was beaten, and he was probably going to be beaten badly.
"Don't look at me like that, who told him not to care about Su An?
"The imperial envoy from the imperial court is here. He is Wang Changqing's old boss. The Zhengyang Sect is bound to die, and the Anxia Sect is about to be overthrown quickly. However, they have insufficient background, especially lack of experts to take charge."
The ordinary man snorted coldly, "I finally got the opportunity to look familiar, but I let him miss it in vain. Next time I want him to help Su An, get on Su An's line, and naturally work as a bodyguard by Su An's side. I don’t know how long it will take yet.
"There are rewards and punishments, and I am acting impartially."
Aunt Yun pouted: "Don't explain, your mind has always been as big as the eye of a needle."
The man didn't respond and just drank his tea.
......
On the third day after returning to Jizhou City, Su An received a call from Wang Zhe, asking him to come over to discuss dividing the Zhengyang Sect's industry.
Under the auspices of the imperial minister whom Su An had never met, the Zhengyang Sect was officially treated as an internal enemy.
However, everything was done covertly, and only high-level officials were involved, and the government did not issue an explicit announcement announcing their crimes.
Not long ago, the government just said that they have nothing to do with the demon clan, and the slap in the face cannot come so quickly.
The Zhengyang Sect, which has been growing for 100 years, is a behemoth with billions of assets. Chen Bushi was completely kicked out, and the wealth was divided among the chief envoys and other people. Su An, who played a key role, was divided by one party. [-]% of the profit.
The Anxia Sect could not afford so much wealth, so the Anxia League entered the scene as a whole.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su An reformed the Anxia League system, increased the authority of the alliance leader, and gave himself more binding force on the sects under his command. This part was mainly reflected in personnel rights and financial rights.
From then on, the Anxia League was no longer a loose alliance that came and went freely. The threshold for each sect to join the Anxia League was raised, and they were subject to greater supervision, and withdrawing was tantamount to betrayal.
In Su An's vision, all the sects in the Anxia League would exist as subsidiaries of the Anxia Sect in the future and would be completely under his control, but this would take time to progress.
This time, Su An hurriedly established the Presbyterian Council, with a quota of six people, to jointly decide on major alliance matters. This undoubtedly reduced the status and influence of the patriarchs who had not joined the Presbyterian Council.
Normally, this kind of reform would only force people out of the Anxia League, but now that the huge temptation of interests is in front of them, the situation is different.
Zhang Yuying, Zheng Nanzhi, Zhao Xiaokui, Sun Zongsheng and other three-star sect leaders who were able to get a lot of Zhengyang Sect cakes and become elders to expand their power in the alliance were the first to agree, and the matter was settled.
Within ten days, the Anxia League established a firm foothold in Changxing District.
During this period, Zheng Nanzhi took the lead in charging and running. Not only did he have a correct attitude, but he also showed outstanding talents in dancing and meticulous work, which impressed Su An.
Under Zheng Nanzhi's promotion, four three-star sects in Changxing District joined the Anxia League, and two other four-star sects conveyed goodwill and expressed that the two sides could cooperate.
As for the two-star sect Su An, he already looked down on it, but he still symbolically recruited a few outstanding ones with good reputations.
When the Anxia League entered Changxing District, it would have been resisted by local xenophobic forces. Even if it took over the Zhengyang Sect's subsidiary, there would be constant trouble in the future. However, due to Zheng Nanzhi's matchmaking and multi-party lobbying, the Anxia League no longer had to worry too much about this. question.
Before that, Su An didn't have a very good impression of Zheng Nanzhi.
Although the other party acted gentle and considerate, Su An was not a person who would be defeated by sugar-coated bullets. The more the other party took the initiative to show off his charm and seduce him, the more disgusted he became.
But this time Zheng Nanzhi's performance made Su An realize that this beautiful leader who was always close to him intentionally or unintentionally was not only capable but also enterprising, and they were like-minded.
......
"Next step, you should seek to be promoted to a four-star sect."
At the celebration banquet within the Anxia League, Su Anru said to Zhao Xiaokui, Sun Zongsheng and others.
"The alliance is developing rapidly. If we don't work hard, we may not be able to keep up with the leader. This matter must be taken seriously by the Liuli Sect."
Speaking of this, Zhao Xiaokui glanced at Sun Zongsheng, "The fittest will survive the waves, and the weak will be kicked out. Sun Zongsheng, don't you think so?"
Liuli Sect was on the list of recruits in the last period. Zhao Xiaokui has made many military achievements. Now he is not far from the four-star sect, so he is full of confidence. Xingsheng Sect has not yet set foot on the battlefield.
Sun Zongsheng looked serious: "What Sect Master Zhao said is true, the time of war is the time for our generation to make contributions.
"I gained a lot of wealth from following the alliance leader. Money should be spent when it should be spent. Today I have purchased a lot of sophisticated weapons and equipment. I will definitely gain something when I step on the battlefield!"
The latter words were said to Su An, which was equivalent to expressing determination.
Sun Zongsheng had always been cautious and conservative, unwilling to take too many risks, but now he was afraid of losing impression points in front of Su An. He fell behind step by step and became aggressive.
Su An raised his glass: "Then I'll be waiting to celebrate for Sect Leader Sun."
"Old Sun, you should have been so proactive a long time ago, otherwise you wouldn't have broken through the seventh level by now. I like you, come on, do it!" Zhao Xiaokui applauded, and it was rare that he did not continue to run against Sun Zongsheng.
Everyone then raised their glasses and drank freely, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
