At dawn, Zhao Cheng took the remaining fifty people and went first to where Wu Yuan camped. Wu Yuan and his party traveled lightly and simply, with not much left, apart from a simple tent and some water.
There was very little clean water left by Wu Yuan, but there was a kind of medicinal powder that could be mixed into the water in the mountains and forests to purify the water and make it barely drinkable. However, you should not drink too much, as drinking too much would damage your body.
In the wild, not all water is drinkable. A lot of water looks clear, but after drinking it, it has various side effects, such as poisoning or diarrhea. As for the medicinal powder, it is a by-product of Taoist alchemy. .
Undoubtedly, for Zhao Cheng and his party who were almost at the end of their rope, these things left by Wu Yuan could be said to solve their urgent needs.
The most important thing is that after killing Wu Yuan, a powerful enemy, although half of his own party died, the survivors did not feel much sadness, but their morale was greatly boosted.
On the one hand, those who survived were rewarded, and on the other hand, the complete annihilation of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in this battle undoubtedly gave the remaining Huang Tianjun confidence and more expectations for the future.
As for Pao Ze's death, death is the most common thing in this era, and death is not worth mentioning in the face of rewards.
In these troubled times, human life is as thin as weeds.
Furthermore, the old soldiers of Huang Tianjun were all refugees who could no longer survive. It made little difference to them whether they were killed or starved to death.
Their logic is very simple. If you follow Zhao Cheng, although you may die, you can also win. If you win, you will gain merit, get rewards, have meat to eat in the future, and even return home with honor.
As for whether Huang Tianjun can conquer the world in the end, the big soldiers don't care about this...
At least it looks good in front of me, and that's enough.
Zhao Cheng has a very clear grasp of the various thoughts of his subordinates. Those who have read some books, such as Wang Shouzheng and Wei Ye, think a little further. For the rest, their knowledge is not enough to support their thoughts. too far.
After a night of fighting, although there had been some repairs, the remaining fifty or so people were already very tired.
Therefore, after accepting Wu Yuan's legacy, Zhao Cheng ordered the entire army to rest in Wu Yuan's camp for two hours before issuing post-war rewards.
Or a promotion, or a bounty.
After some rewards, there were even more captains than soldiers.
But this was also created intentionally by Zhao Cheng.
This kind of organizational structure will naturally not work for a long time, but now it is used for a short time, but there is no problem.
Just imagine, all the officers were rewarded by him. Later, if he found more remnants of Huang Tian's troops, he could just break them up and collect them. There would be no problems in using them.
Because the officers were the first soldiers to follow him.
In this case, the officers will have a feeling that they have a close relationship with the superior officer who promoted them, and they are closer by nature.
It will also make the officers who join later have a feeling that this superior officer has unparalleled prestige and it is difficult for him to have other thoughts.
The so-called authority is established bit by bit.
And this is just the beginning. In the future, Zhao Cheng also plans to set up a school in the military. All officers with a high enough position must study for a period of time, and he himself will naturally be the principal.
In this case, all high-level officials were nominally his students, and in the inherent concepts of this era, the relationship between teachers and students was undoubtedly very close.
The superior should keep a distance from his subordinates. If he does not keep the distance, his subordinates will be arrogant and have no respect. However, they should not be overly interested. In addition to pure interests, there must be other emotional aspects. link.
At this moment, Zhao Cheng looked at the excited expressions of his men after receiving the reward, but countless things from the past, present and future flashed through his mind.
Throughout the ages, when those in power had not yet aspired to dominate the world, they either set up schools or formed sworn sworn disciples, using the relationship between masters and apprentices, and the relationship between brothers to let heroes be used for their own use. At that time, the distance between the superiors and the inferiors was still small. It doesn’t have to be particularly big, but after you aspire to dominate the world, you need to greatly widen the distance from those below you.
The distinction between monarch and minister is above all ties, and anyone who dares to cross it will be killed.
Therefore, the emperor has no relatives!
Of course, Zhao Cheng is not the emperor yet, so he doesn't need to stay too far away from his subordinates.
However, among these people, none of them are so talented. Zhao Cheng needs a close relationship to maintain his emotional state.
All kinds of thoughts were going through his mind, but Zhao Cheng's expression did not change at all. His spiritual world has evolved in many ways, and even turned false into true. There have been countless changes in dynasties and the rise and fall of civilizations. Any template can be used. turn up.
It's just that although there is a spiritual world, only a small part of it has been practiced.
He didn't put much effort into the disputes in this world. He just made a script first, and then everything followed the script without any variables.
Only the void, or the demonic fetus transformed into doomsday, is the place where his mental power should be fulfilled.
He had no foundation in this world before. Although his extradimensional body was extraordinary, due to the obstruction of the Dark Emperor, he was missing a perspective.
Now, his foundation in this world is getting deeper and deeper, his Tao seed has bloomed to the sixth level, and the missing perspective is constantly being replenished.
In fact, his own understanding of the earth and the void from a transcendental perspective, and the various knowledge he had learned from this world, collided with the gains from another perspective, and a subtle change immediately occurred.
From a transcendent perspective, the earth is matter and the void is energy. The structure of the world here shows a transformation of mass and energy that contains the way of immortality. Matter rises into energy and condenses in the void, but will eventually fall into the void. earth.
But when you look down and look up, you get another feeling: substance is not substance, energy is not energy, emptiness is reality, and the earth is emptiness...
What this world shows to Zhao Cheng is undoubtedly a structural state of quality and energy, and the rest are superficial.
This is undoubtedly something brand new. Therefore, under the reflection of the soul, although Zhao Cheng cannot observe the part that has been eroded by the demon fetus, even if it is only a part, it still makes Zhao Cheng's own material body in the unified system. The structure, the energy structure, changes dramatically.
In particular, the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle that constitutes his own Tao Fruit belongs to the structure of Neng Shen. Because the carrier becomes more stable, more possibilities immediately burst out.
Almost every moment, he was stronger and more perfect than the previous moment, but the real barrier finally appeared, that is, no matter how he changed, how he adjusted, how he approached absolute perfection, he was always just a little short of it.
Infinitely close, after all, does not mean arrival.
