If it were someone else who had just cultivated and advanced to a small realm, he still wouldn't be able to stay in seclusion for a few days happily? After leaving customs, there will definitely be a big feast to celebrate. In the secular world, no matter how big a family is, if there is a child at the ninth level of the God Converging Realm in the family, they will definitely be happy from ear to ear.
For most monks in the secular world, reaching the ninth level of the God Gathering Realm is already an elusive realm.
But Shen Hao didn't have the time, mood or conditions to hold a banquet, let alone the time. Even the joy after the breakthrough only lasted a short time in his heart.
As long as you can break through once a month or two, you will be very calm.
In fact, there are quite a few people in the Supervisory Envoy who have cultivated to the lower realms of the God-Gathering Realm, and they are also at the Yuan Dan Realm. For example, Shen Hao's current adjutant, Li Jiang, is a master of the second level of the Yuan Dan Realm. Therefore, although Shen Hao's breakthrough was silent, it was still noticed later. However, apart from handing over Daoxi, there is really no other ostentation that can be shown at this time.
"Sir, the general manager of Daoxing issued an urgent order from the Yamen. All central personnel of the border army should prepare to leave the border immediately. When the order arrives, they will leave the border and go south together according to the command!"
The day after Shen Hao completed his breakthrough, an order from the general manager of the military affairs department was handed over to Shen Hao. It is a widely circulated order. It is obvious that the border army inspector is also a member of the "central establishment" and needs to pack up the baggage and equipment and make all preparations as soon as possible.
Daily affairs are prepared by Zhang Yezai. Before receiving the order, Zhang Ye was still wondering why Shen Hao asked him to prepare as much luggage as possible, including weapons, consumables and medicinal materials, as if he was ready to go to the front line. At that time, Zhang Ye actually had some disapproval. But now the order really came.
How do you say this? I can only say that Mr. Shen is far-sighted and has clever calculations!
"Sir, according to your instructions, the spell-breaking arrows and various offensive and defensive talismans have been prepared according to the maximum carrying capacity. The storage bags are now filled with medicines, elixirs, and array disks according to your requirements. However, the pan-spiritual stone We haven’t received much, and the reserves here have been emptied by the army’s baggage camp. We inspectors went to ask for the rations that were not given, and we had to queue behind the army to provide them.”
"What about personnel?"
"There is no problem with personnel. Excluding the manpower that has been dispersed, there are a total of 318 people accompanying the team this time, including your fifty personal guards. They are all ready and ready to leave at any time."
Don't think that there are a lot of these people. In fact, the total number of supervisors in the border army does not exceed a thousand. The people who are sent out are all outstanding in all aspects, and the rest are either adjutants like Li Jiang or Zhang Ye. , or they are personal guards and general personnel engaged in daily affairs.
"Have you contacted the Daoxing General Manager Yamen? What are the regulations there?"
"Sir, according to the rules, we sent a note to the Daoxing General Manager's Yamen to ask which army we were traveling with, but we haven't received a response so far. However, according to the rules of the military, our supervisory envoy will follow the Chinese Army and set up camp in the Chinese Army. Inside Dazhai."
Shen Hao nodded and said, "Brothers, have you done what I asked you to do with your attire?"
"It's all done, sir. According to your instructions, in addition to the Yanji Dao, each person is also equipped with a short crossbow and a spell-breaking arrow, as well as three attack, three defense and six talismans." With this outfit, Zhang Ye dared to say that it was fine. Even Zuo Yuliang's personal soldiers did not have such luxury.
The reason why Shen Hao wants such extravagant equipment for his subordinates is that firstly, there are not many people, and Xuanqing Guard has the financial resources and confidence; secondly, they are here as supervisors, no better than Xuanqing Guards everywhere. After all, fighting is not their daily routine. , so most of the supervisors are proficient in battle formations and combined attack techniques. For these people, if there is any emergency, it is more reliable to rely on breaking magic arrows and talismans.
"Okay. I'll tell you to go down and sleep in your clothes tonight and wait for departure at any time."
"Yes! That subordinate will resign now."
Zhang Ye left in a hurry. The entire inspector's official residence was also busy. Shen Hao soon received another copper bar, this time written by Jiang Cheng, the governor of Jingxi who was far away in the imperial city.
After unfolding, it was just like Jiang Cheng's usual tone, without much rhetoric, and the language was simple and straightforward. First, he praised Shen Hao's series of actions in the southern frontier army, and then followed up with a warning, saying that no matter how the military situation in the south changed, Shen Hao should follow Zuo Yuliang, talk less, watch more, listen more, and learn more. Just be content with your duties and don't get into trouble.
If the copper bar reaches here, forget it and it is a normal exchange of messages. But at the end of the copper strip, there was something similar to a private message. It was Jiang Chengzai who was explaining to Shen Hao as a teacher.
The content of the explanation was not about worldliness or spiritual practice, but the question about the teleportation circle that Shen Hao had attached to the end of the report note when he was confused.
Why can't the dynasty set up teleportation arrays in barbarian areas?
Jiang Cheng's answers were all written in the copper strip, which made Shen Hao's eyes twitch.
The content was as concise and concise as the previous official business. To sum it up in one sentence: It’s not that the country doesn’t want to be realistic, it’s that it can’t.
This is similar to the reason Shen Hao judged before. But when Jiang Cheng elaborated on the reason in his next words, Shen Hao's brows gradually furrowed.
"The construction and structure of the teleportation array, and even the characterization of the array patterns, are still the biggest problem for the array masters. As far as I know, there are no array masters in the country who can set up the teleportation array."
The above are Jiang Cheng’s original words. At the same time, Shen Hao was surprised: If there were no formation masters who could set up teleportation arrays in the old Jing Dynasty, how did the teleportation arrays in the major cities of the country come from? Where did those small teleportation circles in the army come from?
Later, in a private message, Jiang Cheng gave an unexpected answer: All teleportation arrays are based on something called the "array cornerstone." This is true whether it is the large teleportation arrays in major cities or the small teleportation arrays in the military. Although it seems to be built with ordinary formation details such as formation patterns, it is actually something similar to an formation disk, but it is much larger than the formation disk.
The so-called cornerstone of the formation, Jiang Cheng, also knew this and didn't know why. He even bluntly said that these things were only the content that he had the right to consult after he became the governor of the town, and they were classified as state secrets. As for how the foundation stone came from, it is not known. We only know that the foundation stone was not made by the formation master, it was a mystery.
The last and most critical point. That is, these formation cornerstones can only be activated by mana within a specific range to produce the ability to teleport over long distances. Beyond this range, it will look like an ordinary stone.
Therefore, something that is extremely convenient and has a huge effect, such as the teleportation circle, cannot be used in the barbarian territory at all.
This can be regarded as clearing up Shen Hao's doubts. But new questions emerged and continued to linger in Shen Hao's mind.
"Where did those formation foundation stones come from?"
...
PS: There will be another chapter in the afternoon. People are not doing well these two days. It should be restored tomorrow. Hand over.
