Chapter 155 Total War: The Eve of War

Mu Zhe stood in a laboratory, in front of him was a holographic map showing the situation of the whole continent.

The map was additionally marked by "Wei Dao" and there were many small circles, which represented the range of activities of the students in the academy.

The war is about to begin, but what Mu Zhe is most concerned about is not the war itself, but how the students will behave in this war.

For Mu Zhe, with him around, the outcome of the war has long been doomed.

He even wanted to let the students in the academy show their achievements during this period of time through this war.

It has been five months since the opening of the academy, and most of the disciples in the academy have been studying for about five months. It is time for a semester exam to test the actual level of the students!

Although this war was caused by Mu Zhe's temporary change of mind, it does not mean that Mu Zhe made the decision blindly and without thinking.

In fact, he did some simulations through "micro-channel".

The reason why Mu Zhe really made up his mind to start the war is the students in the academy.

Although many of them did not have soul power before and had only practiced for about five months, but with the Spirit Gathering Formation, the cultivation skills explained to them by Mu Zhe and the method of nourishing the soul, they did not Not so weak.

The weakest physical quality in the academy now has the physical quality of an eleventh and second-level soul master.

Those with strong talents already have the physical fitness of ordinary soul masters.

Although they were not considered strong, Mu Zhe didn't let them go directly to the battlefield, Mu Zhe just let them take advantage of the turmoil of the war to change their situation.

Mu Zhe didn't ask how far they could do it, he just asked them to do their best.

Apply what you have learned.

Mu Zhe didn't know what the students would do.

However, he is looking forward to it.

A group of children who have learned "new ideas", Mu Zhe is looking forward to the changes they can bring to the world.

"Relax to show yourself!"

Looking at the holographic map in front of him, Mu Zhe murmured, I am your most solid backing.

The screen turns.

At this time, Ning Yurong was wearing a gorgeous robe, and walked into a luxurious mansion in the capital of the Star Luo Empire.

He came to meet the head of the Zhu family, an ambitious businessman and politician who controlled most of the wealth of the Star Luo Empire.

Ning Yurong walked into Zhu's living room with a smile, followed by two Qibao Liulizong disciples holding boxes.

He saw Zhu Tianxiang, the head of the Zhu family, a middle-aged man with a handsome face and noble temperament, but there was a trace of uneasiness and anxiety in his eyes.

"Director Ning, welcome to Zhu's house." Zhu Tianxiang got up and greeted him.

With the popularity of the bio-bracelet in the Star Luo Empire, Ning Yurong's status as the sales manager of the bio-bracelet has also increased.

"Patriarch Zhu, I have admired your name for a long time." Ning Yurong responded politely.

"Please sit down."

Zhu Tianxiang signaled Ning Fengzhi to sit on the sofa opposite him, and then asked, "I wonder what is the important matter of Ning Sect Master's visit this time?"

"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just want to discuss a cooperation with Patriarch Zhu." Ning Yurong said lightly.

"Cooperation?" Zhu Tianxiang's heart moved. He knew that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is one of the largest commercial powers in the Heaven Dou Empire, and it is also the seller of the popular biological bracelets. Huge opportunity.

"Yes, cooperation."

Ning Yurong nodded, and then signaled the disciple behind him to open the box.

Inside the box are rows of biological bracelets, each exuding brilliance and aura.

This high-end wristband is very popular in the market, and the price is also very high.

"These are Contra-level biological bracelets?" Zhu Tianxiang asked in surprise.

"That's right." Ning Yurong smiled,

"These are the latest batch of Contra-level biological bracelets from our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. They are of high quality and have remarkable effects."

"Of course, our cooperation is related to this bracelet, but not all of them. Do you know the business model of bonds? We are willing to entrust Zhu's family to issue a special bond called biological bracelet bonds."

"Bio-bracelet bonds?"

Zhu Tianxiang was taken aback.

"Yes." Ning Yurong continued.

"The characteristic of this bond is that each bond comes with a biological bracelet, and bond holders can exchange the bracelet or sell the bond at any time."

"The interest rate of the bond fluctuates according to the market price of the biological bracelet. If the price of the bracelet rises, the interest rate will also rise, and vice versa. The term of the bond is one year, and you can choose to renew or redeem the principal after maturity. "

"In this way, this bond can not only meet the market's demand for biological bracelets, but also attract a large amount of funds into the Zhu family's control."

"Patriarch Zhu might as well think about it. With the popularity of biological bracelets, the market will soon be flooded with such bonds."

"What will the royal family think? Will it block or join? Will they take the risk of offending all the forces that buy bonds? The final result is that the economic power of the empire will be controlled by the party that has the power to issue bonds."

Ning Yurong's words were full of temptation and provocation, he knew the Zhu family's ambitions.

If the Zhu family can gain an advantage in this secret competition with the royal family, the Zhu family will definitely be moved.

"This..." Zhu Tianxiang was shaken in his heart. He felt that what Ning Fengzhi said was reasonable. This kind of bond is indeed a good opportunity, but he also had some doubts, "What is the risk of this kind of bond? Can the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect guarantee Are the bracelets available?"

"Risk?" Ning Yurong smiled,
"You can rest assured that the risk of this bond is very low."

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School only needs to provide a part of the biological bracelet as collateral, and the rest will be managed by the Zhu family. We will give the Zhu family a certain commission and share as a return for cooperation."

"As for the supply of bracelets, you don't have to worry. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has sufficient inventory and production capacity, and there will never be a shortage of goods."

"Then..." Zhu Tianxiang wanted to ask something else, but was interrupted by Ning Yurong.

"Master Zhu, you don't need to hesitate any longer. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as you agree to cooperate with us, you can immediately get these Contra-level bracelets."

"Patriarch Zhu might as well think about it, even if the bond issue doesn't go well at the beginning, you can still use the bracelet in your hand to get more bargaining chips, can't you?"

Ning Yurong's persuasion gradually affected Zhu Tianxiang's judgment, making him feel that this was an opportunity that must be seized.

Zhu Tianxiang was moved by Ning Fengzhi's words. He looked at the biological hand in front of him, and he felt that he had seen the glory of the future, and his ambition grew wantonly under the water of these visions.

"Ok."

He finally said, "I promise to cooperate with you."

"Great." Ning Yurong showed a satisfied smile, "Then, please sign this contract."

Ning Fengzhi took over the contract from his disciple and handed it to Zhu Tianxiang.

Zhu Tianxiang borrowed the contract, looked at it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he signed his name on the contract.

In this way, a seemingly beautiful cooperation began.

On the other side, in the Heaven Dou Empire, the storm of war has already begun to rage.

After meeting with Ning Fengzhi, Qian Renxue informed the ministers of the Qibao Glazed Tile Sect's attitude. The finance minister who was originally strongly opposed fell silent after hearing the news. With the wisdom of the finance minister, he had already foreseen what would happen later. What, Da Qibao Glazed Tile Sect has stated that this war will be inevitable.

Back in the bedroom, Qian Renxue began to study the mountain-like dossier
She needs to choose a suitable person to grant the call-up order. The previous deal between her and Ning Fengzhi has been widely circulated in the empire. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has received the call-up order from the royal family, and is using the large amount of cash obtained from the sale of biological bracelets to continuously buy war materials. With the recruitment of mercenaries, this made other forces who were still hesitating whether to pledge allegiance to the new king lose their restraint and swore allegiance. They were eager to obtain a call-up order.

Those forces hope to expand their power through the call-up order to protect themselves in the chaotic situation at this time, and to obtain more military industry in future wars to promote titles and fiefdoms.

Qian Renxue knows that the call-up order is something that needs to be treated with caution, and it will greatly change the distribution of power within the empire, so she tends to choose those loyal new nobles who are passionate about war and promotion to grant the call-up order. Before that, the distribution of interests of those great noble border lords and legion commanders also needs to be taken into consideration.

Qian Renxue picked up a file with a name written on it: Li Fengyang.

Li Fengyang is a newly promoted nobleman.

He was originally a commoner-born soul master, but with his hard work and talent, he stood out in the soul master academy and became an excellent soul master.

After graduating, Li Fengyang joined the Royal Guards and became an officer.

Li Fengyang performed outstandingly during his service, made many military exploits, was appreciated and promoted by Emperor Xue Ye, was named a first-class baron, and took charge of a territory.

Qian Renxue looked at Li Fengyang's information, wondering if this would be someone worth using.

In a short time, Qian Renxue finished reading Li Fengyang's information.It was decided to give Li Fengyang some privileges and powers, so that he could recruit more mercenaries and soul masters in his territory, so that he could provide her with more military support.

She picked up the parchment, wrote Li Fengyang's name and the specific restrictions of the conscription order on it, and stamped it with the royal seal.

She said to the attendants beside her: "Give this call-up order to Baron Li Fengyang, and tell him that this is my reward for my loyalty and dedication to him."

"I hope he can use the call-up order reasonably and responsibly, provide me with more military support, and win this war for me."

The attendant responded, took the call-up order, and retreated.

Qian Renxue continued to pick up another file, on which was written a name: Khaled Stravinsky.

Khalid is an old nobleman, he is a duke, and he is in charge of Oakland, a vast territory in the south of the empire.

He is a strong man at the level of a soul emperor, possessing great strength and influence, and he also has many allies and followers within the empire.

It's just that he doesn't have much interest and desire for war and promotion, he cares more about his own interests and safety.

Khalid is a cautious and shrewd person, and Qian Renxue's passionate "Holy Vengeance" plan did not make him think.

However, he will not reject this opportunity to plot interests in this war. He hopes to gain a higher status and power through his own strategies and means.

Qian Renxue looked at Khalid's information, and the duke was also a good starting point.

Qian Renxue picked up a piece of golden parchment, and wrote Khaled Stravinsky's name and the number of draft orders on it.She said to the servants beside her:

"Give this call-up to Duke Khalid Stravinsky and tell him that I hope he will use it reasonably and responsibly to provide me with some military support and to win this war for me."

"However, this call-up order is not unconditional. He must complete the following tasks or goals within two weeks, otherwise I will withdraw his call-up order and give him some punishment."

"The first task or goal is that he must provide at least [-] cavalry to the royal family within two weeks, and include them in the troop register and hand them over to the royal family. These cavalry must have undergone strict training and assessment, and must be equipped with good horses and weapons."

"The second task or goal is that he must provide the royal family with supplies of at least 500 million gold coins within two weeks, and transport them to the place designated by the royal family. These supplies must be legal and legitimate, and include food, medicine, Weapons, equipment, and other supplies.”

"The third task or goal is that he must send out his auxiliary soldiers and some scouts within two weeks. These auxiliary soldiers and scouts must be his loyal subordinates, and there must be at least 5000 of them."

"These will be the requirements of the royal family to the Grand Duke of the Empire. The Grand Duke enjoys such status and authority in the Empire, and must also offer their strength and loyalty to the Empire when the Empire needs it."

The attendant responded, took the call-up order, and retreated.

Later, in order to ensure the smooth implementation of her war plan, and to supervise and restrict the actions and performance of various nobles or legions, Qian Renxue sent some reliable and capable people to supervise and assist them in using the call-up orders.

These people are all her cronies or senior generals of the Imperial Army. They all have great strength and prestige, as well as strict discipline and loyalty.

the other side.

After Duke Khalid received the call-up order, he was filled with hesitation and anxiety.

The new king had moved too quickly, and he had intended to remain silent amidst the storm.

With his grand duke's authority and status, he can jump out of the chessboard and become a member of the trader. He doesn't need to compete with those forces, he just needs to guard his fiefdom and wait for the olive branches thrown by various forces before the dust settles. Xue's move by the flag pushed it into a corner.

"Although the emperor's reward is tempting, the order is a challenge that is difficult to complete."

The Duke couldn't help but stroked his beard
"The cavalry, retinues, and scouts, the emperor is very familiar with the attitude of the enemy and the situation of the territory, and the intelligence methods of the old emperor are still so awe-inspiring."

The Emperor’s recruitment happened to be on the Duke’s point. The Duke neither wanted to reject the royal family’s early expression of attitude, nor did he want to reject the Emperor’s reward. After all, in this environment, the role of the call-up order is well known.

The military force and resources needed by the emperor also cleverly bypassed the elite heavy infantry regiment that the Duke relied on most.

After careful consideration, Khaled Stravinsky decided to accept Qian Renxue's call-up.

He intends to use his wealth and connections to accomplish the goals of the royal family, but he will not take too many risks and dangers.

He said to his confidants:
"It is our opportunity and our challenge to collect this call-up order. We must use this opportunity to expand our power and influence, and we must also respond to this challenge to ensure our interests and safety."

"You go to contact some reliable and capable mercenaries or soul masters, let them join our army, you can give them some favorable treatment and conditions. However, we must ensure their quantity and quality, as well as their loyalty and obedience. "

"And tell those trusted nobles or merchants who have cooperated with us to provide us with some supplies, and give them some "reasonable" prices and returns."

"We have to complete these tasks or goals within two weeks, and make it clear to the emperor. But you have to remember, no matter what, the interests of the Oak Territory should be your primary goal."

At this time, in all parts of the Tiandou Empire, those lords and legions who expressed their neutral stance have received orders from the new emperor. The war gears of the empire are slowly turning, and Qian Renxue and Qibao Liulizong are responsible for using their intelligence and wealth. Lubricate this massive machine and make it spin faster and faster.
