Chapter 833 Planning
The two brothers Wang Hong were talking, and Xiaopeng had already swept away all the food and wine on the table before they had eaten a few mouthfuls.
Xiaopeng, as a spirit beast in the transformation stage, has a huge body, and naturally eats a lot. He swallows everything in one gulp. There is enough food on this table to fit between his teeth.
Wang Hongzheng wanted to reprimand Xiaopeng, but he sensed in his consciousness that all the other ministers under him had also arrived, so he simply asked the two maids to set up another big banquet.
All of the subordinates came to see him. They haven't seen each other for a hundred years. There must be many things to report to him. It's good to talk while eating.
Soon Xu Lun, Chen Xiaofeng and others arrived one after another. After saluting Wang Hong, they were all invited to sit at the banquet.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty on leaving the customs, everyone, please drink up this cup!" Xu Lun was the first to raise his glass to congratulate.
After Wang Hong and his subordinates drank several cups of spiritual wine, they began to report to Wang Hong the situation in these years.
The general situation has been mentioned by Wang Yi just now. In a word, life is not easy for the human race now. Their own strength is the weakest and there is great external pressure.
Of course, there is also good news here. For example, although the army of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom lost more than one million yuan, the overall strength of the army has not declined much.
After more than a hundred years of fighting, the soldiers of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom are growing rapidly under the test of life and death. With the support of a large amount of resources, everyone's strength is rapidly improving.
In this year, there were more than 100 newly-promoted powerhouses of the God Transformation stage, plus the original 60 or so God Transformation monks, and after removing more than 20 people who died in battle, the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom still has a hundred Multiple Gods.
The remaining Nascent Soul and Golden Core stage monks have also produced many, and now among the more than four million troops, the weakest ones have also reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
In the army, the positions of small captains who only command five people are all held by Jindan monks. As for the squadron leaders who command hundreds of people, they have already reached the Nascent Soul Stage.
At the same time, the Ministry of Industry led by Chen Xiaofeng has also made great achievements in recent years. The Ministry of Industry has cultivated a large number of talents of various types, and the finished products refined every year can earn massive resources for the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
After listening to everyone's reports, Wang Hong pondered for a while: "Luo Zhongjie, you continue to recruit new soldiers and expand the army to eight million people.
At the same time, some old soldiers can gradually withdraw from the army. "
"The minister takes orders!"
Luo Zhongjie quickly responded. The army has lost a lot of manpower over the years. If the remaining people only have the foundation cultivation, their lifespan will only be two hundred years old.
The soldiers recruited in the last batch, if they didn’t break through and get promoted, they should be old by now. For those who are nearing their lifespan, it’s better to let them go back to enjoy their old age.
But in this way, the number of recruits will increase significantly. Fortunately, schools have spread all over the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, and a large number of students graduate every year, so there is still no need to worry about the number of recruits.
"Chen Xiaofeng, in the next time, your Ministry of Industry can do its best to refine giant crossbows and crossbow bolts, and store them in the warehouse for the time being, not for sale."
"Your Majesty, there is no problem with the manpower for refining the giant crossbow, but there is a shortage of materials."
Chen Xiaofeng said with a bit of embarrassment that there are not many spirit wood materials needed to refine the giant crossbow in Xiaoyuanjie. Although large-scale planting has been carried out in various parts of the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom, they have not yet reached the mature and usable standard.
With the current scale of the Ministry of Industry, the existing materials simply cannot support the Ministry of Industry's full refining efforts, nor can it produce many finished products. For millions of troops, it is not very useful and cannot affect the battle situation.
"When I went to the secret realm last time, I collected a lot of materials, which should be able to support use for a period of time."
Some have even grown for tens of thousands of years, and now most of them have been cut down by him, and now they are just taken out for use.
Immediately took out several magic weapons for storage and threw them to Chen Xiaofeng.
Chen Xiaofeng took the magic weapon of storage, glanced inside with his spiritual sense, suddenly his pupils shrank slightly, and his face was full of joy.
"Your Majesty, do you have more of this kind of spirit wood?" Chen Xiaofeng took out a huge spirit wood from the treasure storage as he spoke.
Wang Hong glanced at it, and it turned out to be a piece of ten thousand-year-old hibiscus wood that he had mixed in.
There are quite a few ten thousand-year spiritual woods in the space, and this kind of hibiscus wood also has hundreds of roots. He only took out two at random this time.
"There are still some, what's the use for you, this doesn't seem to be the spiritual material for refining the giant crossbow?"
"Although this object is not a spiritual material for refining a giant crossbow, my subordinates are researching and refining a combat-type puppet, and the finished product should have the strength close to the transformation of a **** in the late stage of Nascent Soul.
It's just that there is still a lack of a main material as the core, and I think this thing is just right. "
Everyone sitting here heard the words, and they were all moved. It is not easy to refine high-level puppets. The Great Chu Immortal Kingdom has refined many puppets before, and the strongest ones can only reach the early stage of Yuanying.
Now if this puppet is successfully refined, even if it only has the strength of the late Nascent Soul, it will be considered a major breakthrough.
"I still have some 10,000-year-old hibiscus wood in my hand, so I'll give it to you. If it's not enough, you can come to me again." Wang Hong took out ten more hibiscus woods and gave them to Chen Xiaofeng.
Chen Xiaofeng took the hibiscus wood a little excitedly, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Wang Hong again: "Your Majesty, I have another idea, but it also needs a lot of spiritual materials."
"What idea, you can just say it, if it is feasible, you can think of a way in terms of materials."
Wang Hong didn't know what other ideas Chen Xiaofeng had. Many of Chen Xiaofeng's ideas were far-fetched and far-fetched, but some ideas were really good. For example, the giant crossbow he worked out made a great contribution to the Great Chu Immortal Kingdom.
"I think we can refine a puppet army and let the puppet army charge forward and do some dangerous tasks.
Just wanting to refine a puppet army also requires a lot of spiritual materials. "
"Some methods are feasible, but how many puppets do you plan to refine? How many materials do you need?"
Wang Hong supported Chen Xiaofeng's idea. After he left the customs, he learned of the current situation of the human race, so he intends to expand the army, increase combat effectiveness, and fight a turnaround.
So just now Luo Zhongjie was asked to recruit troops, and the Ministry of Industry was asked to refine the giant crossbow, all of which were prepared for this.
He has thought about the idea of the puppet army for a long time, but a small number is useless, and a large number will cost too much to consume.
Now his space area has reached 3,000 mu, and all kinds of spiritual wood and other spiritual materials planted in it have matured for several rounds, and the accumulated materials are already quite a few, which should be able to support the construction of this army.
"I plan to refine a legion composed of 100,000 puppets. I don't understand military affairs. The specific composition of arms needs to be discussed with the generals of the Ministry of War to formulate.
So the list of required materials cannot be listed in detail yet. "
"Okay! You will preside over the discussion on this matter, and just report the result to me." Wang Hong left the matter to Chen Xiaofeng.
