Chapter 417: New Legion Completed
[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission: forming a new legion; acquiring 300,000 new sets of armaments, dragon and tiger body-forging techniques, and the four-elephant killing formation. 】
Listening to the sudden sound of the notification tone, Lu Fan couldn't help but feel stunned.
Just when he was stunned, Jiang Shang's message requesting communication came from his mind.
Without any hesitation, Lu Fan immediately answered the call, and Jiang Shang's voice rang in his mind.
"Lord, preparations for the new legion have been completed..."
Jiang Shang reported to Lu Fan in great detail the success of the preparations for the new army, and also briefly talked about the problems currently encountered.
Lu Fan listened carefully to what Jiang Shang said.
The speed of preparing a new army was indeed beyond his imagination.
After all, it had been less than a month since he left Da Gan Man Tia Man Suan, plus the time given before.
In other words, Jiang Shang and others successfully organized a legion of 300,000 people in less than two months.
Although most of the people here are ordinary people, and cultivators only account for a very small part, Lu Fan is already very satisfied with this.
The problem Jiang Shang mentioned was not a big problem for Lu Fan.
Because the problem is that the new legion lacks armaments and resources, and it also lacks food and grass.
Previously, the northern border only needed to support the Zhenbei Army, and the food and grass resources were barely enough.
But now there is not only the Zhenbei Army, but also 300,000 new legions, plus newly recruited patrol guards and guards.
Not to mention the many cities that are in a state of recovery.
No matter what you do, you need a lot of food and resources to maintain, otherwise all progress will stop.
After all, soldiers need to eat.
Even if there is no war, the soldiers cannot be allowed to starve, otherwise the soldiers will have to rebel.
After all, ordinary monks join the legion not to go hungry, while ordinary cultivators join the legion to obtain training resources.
These two basic conditions must be met.
Although he asked Shen Wansan to form the Beigan Chamber of Commerce, he also took over a lot of wealth resources from the three major families.
However, the Pekan Chamber of Commerce has not been established for a long time and its resources are very limited. It is simply not enough to support the development of the entire northern territory.
After Jiang Shang finished reporting everything, Lu Fan pondered for a moment and then said:
"Ziya, don't worry about military supplies, food, grass and other resources. I will arrange for someone to deliver them to you.
The next focus is to train the new legions and speed up the recovery of the abandoned cities in the north..."
Although he recycled most of the resources to the system and exchanged them for points, he also left some storage rings, which included the resources and food that the Tuoba family sent to Tiannan City.
In addition, we have just completed the mission and obtained 300,000 sets of new armaments. There is no need to worry about this issue at all.
Moreover, the Tianxiang and Chiyang Holy Cult members in Daqian can now be mobilized, and they can also loot a lot of resources in a short period of time.
In this way, after Lu Fan quickly arranged and explained, he ended the interrogation with Jiang Shang.
Tong Tian, Xiao Yi and others thought Lu Fan was thinking about something, so no one bothered him just now.
After finishing the interrogation, Lu Fan said directly to Tong Tian: "Let the members in Daqian control the ten first-rate forces and eight major families as quickly as possible, as well as other second-rate forces."
Now that the Chiyang Holy Sect is effectively in his own hands, it is naturally much easier to do these things.
The only thing I need to worry about is taking advantage of my father.
But at the moment, the power I control is strong enough, so what if my father knows about it.
Anyway, his goal is to be the leader of the Nine Continents, and he really doesn't like a small leader.
If the advantageous father does not go against him, then everything will be fine, but if he goes against himself, there is nothing he can do.
Of course, it would be too cruel to kill him. After all, he was the father in name only, and he didn't want to be known as a patricide.
But there is no problem in putting him under house arrest and becoming a puppet emperor.
When Tong Tian heard Lu Fan's order, he couldn't help but have a look of astonishment on his face.
After all, Lu Fan is the prince of Daqian, how could he issue such an order.
However, he naturally did not dare to question Lu Fan, so he nodded without hesitation.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Your Highness, if you encounter someone from the imperial court, then..."
Before Tong Tian finished speaking, Lu Fan said directly: "Try not to have a conflict. If it is really unavoidable, then kill him."
At the very least, the Chiyang Holy Sect will soon become a force under his command, but the Daqian Court has little to do with him for the time being.
Before you surrender to yourself, you can only be an enemy, or an insignificant stranger.
As long as it's not one of your own, there's no need to hold back.
After receiving Lu Fan's clear instructions, Tong Tian felt relieved and nodded to express his understanding.
After telling Tong Tian, Lu Fan looked at Xiao Yi and Shi Yongxiong and said: "Then you two will go back separately and proceed as planned. If there is any situation, please report to me in time."
With that said, he took out three sound transmission jade tablets and handed them to Tong Tian, Xiao Yi and Shi Yongxiong respectively.
After the three of them carefully put away the jade tablet, Lu Fan didn't want to stay here too long.
Immediately, he was escorted by Tong Tian and others all the way to the valley, and all the members he saw saluted with great respect.
Now they all know that from now on they will only be loyal to one person, and that is Lu Fan.
After saying goodbye to Tong Tian and others briefly, Lu Fan took Xiahou Dun and Di Qing and left here directly.
Shi Yongxiong and Wu Xian did not leave with them.
Because they still need to improve their chances to prevent any flaws from being exposed when they return to report.
After all, Lu Fan's order is to inform the leader of Xuanjin Holy Church that they have reached a cooperation with Chiyang Holy Church.
Then find a way to lead the leader of Xuanjin Holy Church and many powerful people of Xuanjin Holy Church to Daqian one by one.
This will also make it easier for Lu Fan to catch those guys in one fell swoop.
This task is not easy, so they naturally have to discuss it carefully to avoid any mistakes.
After Lu Fan left the base with Xiahou Dun and Di Qing, he returned directly to Tianwu Imperial Capital.
Things went much more smoothly than he thought, which made Lu Fan feel very good.
Although he did not gain any cultivation resources this time, it was more worthwhile to be able to subdue Tong Tian, Xiao Yi and others than to obtain a large amount of resources.
Soon Lu Fan and the other two returned to Tianwu Imperial Capital.
It was already early in the morning, and it would be dawn soon, but the city was still brightly lit and bustling with people.
After all, for cultivators, sleep is not necessary, and a simple meditation for a while can restore sufficient state.
Except for some cultivators who practice all the time, most cultivators spend their time in taverns or large and small shops and stalls.
Because most cultivators know very well that it is impossible to get a significant improvement through hard practice.
Instead of wasting time on hard practice, it is better to go to the mountains outside to kill a few fierce beasts in exchange for cultivation resources to improve cultivation.
Lu Fan was not very interested in these bustles.
After entering the imperial capital, Lu Fan took Xiahou Dun and Di Qing back to the inn.
When Lu Fan took Xiahou Dun and Di Qing into the courtyard of the inn, he was stunned...
