Before leaving the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournant space, Zhou Shu had asked all the forgers to forge the Cosmic Bangles with all their might. In the end, they had managed to forge dozens of Cosmic Bangles.
When they rushed out of the encirclent, so of the generals with the Cosmic Bangles had died in battle, and these Cosmic Bangles couldn’t be retrieved.
After arriving at this camp, the originally distributed Cosmic Bangles were all collected back. After all, they were only temporarily lent to the soldier. Most of the Cosmic Bangles were public assets of the Huaxia Pavilion, and people would only be rewarded with a Cosmic Bangle if they made a contribution.
According to the current rules of the Huaxia Pavilion, when soone needed a Cosmic Bangle, they could apply to borrow one. After all, it was much more convenient to use it to carry things.
“I understand. Do you have any other instructions, Your Highness?” Xiao Jianghe said.
Zhou Shu pondered for a mont. Ever since Xiao Jianghe had led the army to follow him, he had never fallen behind in battle. He had seen everything the Criminal Army did.
He was very satisfied with the Criminal Army.
“While the information says that this rat race is not strong, there is no guarantee that there will be no problem. Rember, the brothers’ safety is the priority,” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “Where there’s life, there’s hope. If sothing goes wrong, retreat first.
“I have so advice for you. Bear this in mind.
“When the enemy advances, I retreat. When the enemy is stationed, I disrupt them. When the enemy is tired, I fight. When the enemy retreats, I go after them!”
Xiao Jianghe’s expression turned solemn. The more he thought about these words, the more exquisite they beca. His respect for Zhou Shu rose to another level.
As expected of His Highness. He keeps saying that he doesn’t know how to lead troops to war, but his casual words are supre military tactics.
“Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness!” Xiao Jianghe said sincerely.
......
“Alright, go. When you co back, I’ll reward you heavily, “Zhou Shu said with a smile.
Clap clap clap!
Xiao Jianghe had just left when Zhou Shu saw ng Bai clapping his hands and walking over.
“When the enemy advances, I retreat. When the enemy is stationed, I disrupt them. When the enemy is tired, I fight. When the enemy retreats, I go after them!” ng Bai sighed. “These words are the essence of guerrilla warfare.
“Unfortunately, Your Highness, your ambition is not to lead the army. Otherwise, the number one general of the Ten Nations would probably be you.”
ng Bai was filled with emotion. When he first t Zhou Shu, he had thought of taking him in as his disciple. But at the ti, he was about to set off on an expedition and wanted to observe him before making a decision.
In the end, when he returned from the expedition, Zhou Shu had already beco famous. He was no longer qualified to take him in as a disciple…
And then…
Zhou Shu rose to his current status one step at a ti. Now, his status was already above ng Bai’s. It was too late for regrets.
Originally, he didn’t really think about this anymore. But when he heard Zhou Shu’s words, he felt a wave of regret.
Why did I put on airs back then?
If only I had managed to take him in as my disciple…
What a promising general. He has never led an army before, but he can already make such a statent about the essence of the art of war. If he focused on the art of war, wouldn’t I, ng Bai, have a successor?
The thought made him want to slap himself.
“Don’t say that, Great General. I’m an amateur in the art of war.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “I was just saying it casually. You can’t take it seriously.”
ng Bai shook his head with a bitter smile. “Your Highness, your casual sayings can make countless people feel ashad of themselves.
“‘When the enemy advances, I retreat. When the enemy is stationed, I disrupt them. When the enemy is tired, I fight. When the enemy retreats, I go after them!’ These words can completely be regarded as the highest principle for us to settle down now.”
ng Bai continued, “It’s a pity that you don’t cultivate the art of war, Your Highness.”
“It’s no pity.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Just forging alone is enough. We don’t lack generals now. Why would I waste my effort?”
Zhou Shu changed the topic. “What can I do for you, Great General?”
“I’m going out to scout the terrain, so I ca to tell you, Your Highness,” ng Bai said. “General Wang and General Tang have already been mobilized. In the next few days, you’ll have to watch over the camp.”
“I’ll be around. Don’t worry.”
This was the lair Yao Lian had chosen for himself. Not only were there no Demon Kings around, but there weren’t even Great Demons.
ng Bai and the others were all first-rank martial artists. As long as they were careful, they shouldn’t encounter any accidents.
It was also a good thing for them to go out and familiarize themselves with the terrain. After all, they would have to take root here for a long ti in the future. As generals, they definitely had to familiarize themselves with the terrain.
ng Bai hesitated before asking, “Your Highness, I just heard you say that you want General Xiao to leave the camp. Is that really okay?”
“No problem,” Zhou Shu said.
“That’s good.” ng Bai nodded.
“Oh yes, I almost forgot.” Zhou Shu stopped ng Bai, who was about to leave. He touched his hair and said, “Great General, Deputy Pavilion Master Shi and I have set up a points system. All forgers in the camp can exchange points for secret forging formulas and forging techniques.
“I think the military also needs a reward system to increase the enthusiasm of the soldiers.”
ng Bai nodded. The situation of the Ten Nations Alliance was a little special. They still didn’t know if they could return to the Ten Nations Continent alive. Even if they could, it would be troubleso for the various nations to decide the military rits.
ng Bai, Wang Mu, and the others had long been discussing this matter. But they even had problems surviving now, so how could they provide any rewards?
“Your Highness, when we settle down, we will definitely work on this matter,” ng Bai said, “Now that we have nothing, the rewards—”
“Who says we have nothing left?” Zhou Shu asked. “There are many forging materials in the storeroom of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch.
“Great General, feel free to set up the system. Don’t worry about the rewards. I’m not bragging, but I still have so good things.”
“You can use points to exchange for ranked weapons or even Cosmic Bangles.”
In ng Bai’s opinion, points were just military rits. There were cases of this in the army, so it wasn’t difficult.
“I understand. I’ll discuss it with General Wang and the others later.”
“Alright, just contact Deputy Pavilion Master Shi directly.” Zhou Shu nodded. He still had so Essence Cleansing Pills and Breakthrough Pills on him, which could also enrich his reward vault.
In the Demon Realm, the strength of the Ten Nations Alliance was his strength, so it wasn’t the ti to keep things secret.
And the forging of weapons had to be quickened…
After ng Bai left, Zhou Shu thought for a mont and got up to go to the forging room that was being built.
The karst cave that Yao Lian had discovered was gigantic.
In order not to let the noise of the forging affect the soldiers’ rest, a place farther from the largest cave had been specially chosen.
Zhou Shu passed through a long passageway and ca to a cave.
Shi Songtao, Li Chengliang, and the others were busy polishing the stone walls and installing the forging furnaces.
“Your Highness,” the forgers greeted when they saw Zhou Shu.
“Good work, everyone.” Zhou Shu waved his hand. “Is there anything I can help you with?”
“No,” Shi Songtao said. “Pavilion Master, this place is about to be completed. We will be able to start forging very soon.”
Shi Songtao spoke excitedly. Forging was what the Huaxia Pavilion was good at, and Shi Songtao felt a sense of accomplishnt when he personally built the forging room.
“Your Highness, Deputy Pavilion Master Shi has already told us about the points system of the Huaxia Pavilion. I want to ask, can the Iron Slting Hands Technique be exchanged with points?” Grand Craftsman Li Chengliang asked.
He had once seen Zhou Shu use the Iron Slting Hands Technique, which made him extrely envious. No forger could refuse the temptation of forging with their bare hands.
If possible, Li Chengliang was even willing to use all his wealth, including all the secret forging formulas he had, to exchange for the cultivation thod of the Iron Slting Hands Technique.
Of course, he knew it might not be enough.
“Of course.” Zhou Shu nodded. “But I have to say this first. The Iron Slting Hands Technique is extrely difficult to cultivate. It’s not sothing that ordinary people can master. I don’t recomnd you exchange it.”
Everyone nodded, but it was obvious that they might not listen to Zhou Shu.
Before they t, everyone thought that they were one in a million geniuses. No one would think that they wouldn’t be able to master the Iron Slting Hands Technique.
Zhou Shu didn’t say anything. As long as they accumulated enough points, he wouldn’t refuse them to exchange for the Iron Slting Hands Technique.
Zhou Shu coughed lightly and said, “I’m now issuing the first mission of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch.
“I need five people to help forge a weapon. The mission reward is ten points. Who is willing to accept the mission?”
