C404 Departure
No matter how powerful electrical type Magic Gun were, their opponent still had a God-given Divine Staff. In terms of might, they were definitely not weaker than Demon Spiritualist. Furthermore, there were only a thousand people at the tenth rank of the Divine Weapon Camp, while there were a total of five hundred thousand people at the Western Legion. The difference in strength was completely out of proportion.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian's back was drenched in cold sweat for the second time.
He picked up a towel and wiped off the sweat on his forehead. However, Ye Tian laughed at himself and then said: "What are you afraid of? Aren't there still those two containers?"
Of the two containers, one of them could release the level eight Devil Beast, the Netherworld Spirit, while the other could release a level nine Undead, Death Spirit Knight.
With these two to fight against an army of five hundred thousand Oca, there wouldn't be any problem for them to be of equal strength. The only problem was the difference in numbers.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian shouted once again, "Bi Ling, inform Lee Chengtian to continue collecting Black Crystal from the surrounding towns, the more the better."
Separated by the yard, Bi Ling, who was still immersed in the wonderful feeling of having sex with Ye Tian, heard Ye Tian's shout from a distance. She blushed and replied, "Understood, master."
This promise was thin, soft, and bashful. It was completely unlike Bi Ling's usual capable and decisive style. Ye Tian, on the other hand, felt an itch in his heart once again.
An hour later, Lee Chengtian arrived at Qinghee Pavilion and entered the main hall to meet Ye Tian.
"Commander-in-chief, I have already sent out some logistics troops to check all the towns and markets within a radius of five kilometers. The rest of the Black Crystal have also been gathered here. Every shop that sells Black Crystal has also arranged for a logistics unit to be stationed, so these people that have been in the business of selling Black Crystal for a long time can move the Black Crystal from the other regions as soon as possible. "
At this point, Lee Chengtian paused for a while and continued, "According to my estimates, in just a day or two, the amount of Black Crystal that we have in our arsenal will reach at least a hundred tons."
Ye Tian nodded, and continued: "You should know, that the reason the Core Crystal Rifle is called the Core Crystal Rifle, is because its striking power is transformed from the Black Crystal. Therefore, to Tianyang Legion, a Black Crystal is life, and is also battle power. Black Crystal must not be broken, once it is broken, we will lose the source of attack and support. Tianyang Legion's rifle team will once again be reduced to ordinary soldiers. "
Lee Chengtian nodded seriously.
Ye Tian continued: "Although there are only 100,000 cartridges for the first batch, each soldier in your rifle team can only carry 10, it's still enough to ambush Oca Seventh Legion once. Time is of the essence, Royal Labor Union will only allow Mister to produce the first batch of bullets, and after that, there will be an endless stream of bullets reaching the Tianyang Pass. "
Hearing Ye Tian's words, Lee Chengtian felt reassured. A stone that was hanging in the air finally fell to the ground. Honestly speaking, although Lee Chengtian greatly desired the Core Crystal Rifle's attack power, after obtaining the Core Crystal Rifle, the shellless bullets could only be produced by Royal Labor Union.
This also meant that the battle power and lifeline of Tianyang Legion would be controlled by the Imperial Household Department, led by Ye Tian.
However, Lee Chengtian did not regret this point. It was not an exaggeration to say that putting aside the elements of a magic martial skill, Core Crystal Rifle was undoubtedly the most advanced and most lethal new weapon in the entire continent. To be able to possess such a weapon as soon as possible, would have a leaps and bounds in terms of the casualty rate and fighting strength of Tianyang Legion soldiers.
Besides, Lee Chengtian already had a heart full of admiration for Ye Tian even though they hadn't known each other for long.
Ye Tian wasn't as scheming and deceitful as the legend said. On the contrary, he was magnanimous and forgiving. Being able to follow Commander-in-chief, regardless of whether it was a general or a soldier, was a rare blessing.
And what was even more crucial was that this young Commander-in-chief actually never used soldiers as cannon fodder, and instead kept the soldiers' lives safe at all times. He would rather stand on top of the city walls of Tianyang Pass and defend himself from the attacks of Oca Devil Spirit Mage Group, than to let the soldiers that were guarding the Tianyang Pass suffer any injuries.
In fact, it was not only in Lee Chengtian's heart. Even in the hearts of every single soldier of the Tianyang Pass army of one hundred thousand, Wu Tie, who was standing on top of the city walls of Tianyang Pass and blocking all the fireballs in the sky by himself, was branded into the hearts of every single one of them.
Looking at Lee Chengtian's back, Ye Tian chuckled. A bigger and more grand plan was slowly taking shape in his heart.
First, he allowed the Core Crystal Rifle's equipment to agitate Lee Chengtian's appetite. When he continued to taste the benefits and sweetness of the Core Crystal Rifle in battle, he began to list the rest of the Tianyang Legion among the Core Crystal Rifle.
As long as the Core Crystal Rifle's design, production, and supply of shellless bullets were all in the Royal Labor Union's hands, then the life vein of the Tianyang Legion would forever be in Ye Tian's hands.
At that time, even if Lee Chengtian didn't want to listen to what Ye Tian had to say, he was afraid that he wouldn't make it.
If Tianyang Legion were to be equipped with Core Crystal Rifle as a whole, coupled with the corresponding training methods and combat methods, and after showing a fighting strength that could jump over, it would definitely cause a huge shock to Wu Annbang's Sunshine Legion as well as to the other large Legions of the empire.
As a result, more and more of the army would want to equip the Core Crystal Rifle.
At that time, even if Military Court were to deliberately obstruct him, with the soldiers' morale being so high, the soldiers' combat power and the rate of casualties would greatly increase. Hence, the soldiers would have no choice but to use their Military Court to conceal their selfish thoughts.
Think about it, if all of the Empire's armies were to be equipped with Core Crystal Rifle in the future and used the shellless bullets supplied by the Royal Labor Union, it would mean that Ye Tian would be able to control almost all of the Empire's army's lifeline.
At that time, Ye Tian's Imperial Household Department would be able to reverse the situation and destroy the entire Military Court.
This was Ye Tian's goal.
Controlling the advanced weapons, monopolizing the production of the military, grabbing onto the lifeline of the army, grabbing onto the neck of the army, looking at the entire empire, regardless of whether it was Military Court or the Internal Affairs Bureau, who would be able to contend against them?
Ye Tian laughed as he thought about it.
After laughing for a while, Ye Tian focused his attention back on the Black Crystal's stock. According to the energy obtained from the conversion of one kilogram of Black Crystal, it was roughly equivalent to the mana of one Primary Magic Mentor. One kilogram of Black Crystal was enough for a beginner Beast Devil Summoner to summon ten seventh level Devil Beast, a hundred Sixth Level Devil Beast, or a thousand fifth level Devil Beast.
Similarly, a fifty kilogram Black Crystal could summon ten ninth level Devil Beast, a hundred eighth level Devil Beast, or a thousand seventh level Devil Beast from a high level Beast Devil Summoner.
Looking at the size of the Western Legion's army of five hundred thousand, every single soldier had combat power that was not inferior to the Demon Spiritualist, equivalent to a Advanced Devil Spirit Master. Therefore, no matter if it was Departed Soul Summoner or the Devil Beast's summoner, the level of the undead and Devil Beast that they summoned could not be lower than their Sixth Level.
In Ye Tian's plan, the best scenario would be a level seven undead and a level seven Devil Beast. Under a one on one situation, it was just right that they could pressure Advanced Devil Spirit Master, and just barely restrain Oca.
The problem now was that in a 1v1 situation, both the Undead and Devil Beast would be slightly superior. However, he did not know if the current quantity of Black Crystal would be able to reach the level of being able to compete with the Western Legion.
Ye Tian lowered his head again and started to calculate carefully.
One kilogram of Black Crystal could release ten of the seventh level of Devil Beast or a seventh level of Undead. From this calculation, one ton of the Black Crystal could release ten thousand of the seventh level of Devil Beast or a seventh level of Undead.
The current stock of Black Crystal inside the Tianyang Pass city wall was thirty tons. According to Lee Chengtian's estimations, within a day or two, the amount of Black Crystal that can be collected from all over the city would reach over a hundred tons.
Thinking about that, Ye Tian smiled in satisfaction. A hundred tons of Black Crystal meant a million Level 7 Devil Beast or Level 7 Undead.
Ye Tian smiled proudly as he said, "I have a million man army in my hands now."
Evening, ten o'clock.
In the training grounds inside the Tianyang Pass city wall, many flags were fluttering in the air, and soldiers were streaming in like a forest. The one hundred thousand great army and ten thousand troops had already completed their final assembly.
Ye Tian arrived at the training field on time and saw that there was an army of one hundred and ten thousand people.
In the last square formation of Tianyang Legion, Ye Tian saw a rifle team that was all equipped with Core Crystal Rifle.
Nodding his head in satisfaction, Ye Tian told Lee Chengtian and Lin Qiyu, "On this trip, if we can win, we win. If the timing is wrong and our luck is bad, even if we lose, we have to return alive. In the end, he had to retreat unscathed and not fight to the death. "Both of you, remember, although winning the war is the basic duty of an army general, the lives of soldiers are more important than any other battle."
Hearing Ye Tian's words, Lin Qiyu and Lee Chengtian both nodded their heads and replied seriously.
Ye Tian let out a long sigh of relief. Looking at the skyline above the Tianyang Pass city wall, he let out a pretty sunset glow and then softly said: "Alright, let's go."
Lee Chengtian replied, "Yes."
Lin Qiyu performed a standard military salute.
Immediately after, Lee Chengtian waved at the Tianyang Pass city gate. Amidst a long howl, the soldiers on duty at the gates responsible for the Tianyang Pass began to spin the enormous winch.
A series of "quack quack" sounds could be heard as the huge gates of the Tianyang Pass finally slowly opened.
Fifty kilometers north of Tianyang Pass, in the main camp of Oca, Gilki was sitting in the middle of a tent with a dark expression. Felman walked up and observed Gilki's face nervously. He then slowly said, "Sir, the scouts at the front have sent over some information."
Gilki coldly snorted and said: "You even have an observer planted in front of you? Are you thinking of counterattacking? "
Felman was speechless.
Based on their hearts, they had always been victorious in terms of Far North Ice Plain. This made it so that the Magic Spirit Mage Group which caused the Ice Origin Realm people to hide everywhere and win their illustrious reputation, was actually completely annihilated by an army of ten thousand outside of Tianyang Pass.
Such a tragic defeat, as the commander, Felman naturally could not shirk his responsibilities.
Felman himself was aware of this fact, so every time Gilki got angry, he would never be able to differentiate between the two.
Snorting again, Gilki opened his mouth and said: "What intelligence? Speak."2
Felman said: "The Tianyang Pass city gates are wide open, and several tens of thousands of troops have rushed out."
Hearing Felman's words, Gilki raised his head, looked at Felman, and continued to ask: "Oh? The Tianyang Legion actually left the city? "What is the direction of their march?"
Felman continued: "After the Tianyang Legion left the city, after walking five kilometers, they arrived at Hexi Ridge and split into four different directions. According to the observations of the observers, the Divine Weapon Camp s and Tianyang Legion s are divided into at least four different paths. Among them, the Tianyang Legion is following the west side of the river and heading northwest.
