Last Totem Novel - Chapter 425
Chapter 425 Counselor
“That’s a good question.” Zhao Wenke smiled and praised, but the person concerned was very unhappy. As he touched the hilt of the sword, he threatened, “Speak quickly!”
The former explained for two reasons:
Firstly, Desert Five had been a must for humans, demons, and bee ants for hundreds of years. Therefore, the human army stationed in Desert Five was extremely large, and its development was quite high. There were very few unknown dangers. Although there was a possibility of war breaking out at any time, it was still much safer than the abyss.
Second, Desert Five could use mecha, and ordinary soldiers could also play a good role. In the Bottomless Abyss, they could only rely on elites. If they were unlucky enough to encounter an Abyss Devil Dragon or some strange creature, ordinary soldiers wouldn’t even have a chance to escape. If you can’t wear power armor, you’ll most likely die there.
Simply put, Desert Five could use ordinary humans as its main force, while elites could be used as special forces to support, sneak attack, and expand its battle results. Moreover, it could change and retreat in time. Unlike the bottomless abyss, where one accidentally dies without a burial ground.
“Yes, continue.” Tie Zha nodded and said.
“Apart from Desert Five, we also need a few Mirror Sea oilfields so that fuel can be self-sufficient. If war breaks out in the central continent in the future, fuel will definitely be strictly controlled as a strategic material.”
“With enough minerals and fuel, and enough money, we will gradually expand our elite team.”
“At that time, you will need to find a tactical commander for yourself.”
“When the war was small, you can rely on combat experience and intelligence, and the situation on the battlefield. However, once the scale of the war expands to the level of the collapsed legion, it is necessary to systematically study military doctrine, involving specific tactical arrangements, the structure of the command center, coordinated operations between units, personnel deployment, logistical supplies, satellite communications, and other areas of knowledge. ”
“You won’t?” Tie Zha asked.
“I will, but I’m not proficient. I’m good at internal affairs and economic development. My knowledge structure is similar to that of Eva Green, the Temple’s think tank, but I’m not as intelligent and knowledgeable as she is.” Zhao Wenke took a deep breath and said, “The Red Rose of the Three Roses of the Temple, Elvis Shelley, who is known as the ‘Fox’, has excellent tactical talent, and Military Counselor William Reinhart’s tactical accomplishments are also excellent, but he is more skilled in grand strategic layout and is a military genius.” And even if we can’t match up to these two, we can’t be too far apart from each other. ”
“Do you know all these people?” Tie Zha couldn’t help but ask.
“The Great Prophet once said that a qualified counsellor must have an in-depth understanding of the leaders of the world’s major organizations and keep an eye on changes in the situation everywhere.” Zhao Wenke said modestly, “I’m not qualified yet. I only know a part of it. There’s still a lot I don’t understand.”
“So, as far as you know, in this world, what kind of person’s tactical cultivation is comparable to that of a fox or a military counselor?” Tie Zha asked.
“The Spirit Snake Holy Lady of the past, and the current High Priest of the Sun Snake Sect, Bi Qinglan. She is as versatile as William.” Zhao Wenke said.
“What else?” Tie Zha asked. It was impossible for him to find Bi Qinglan to be his tactical commander.
“The Eternal City’s Happiness Goddess, the Rain Prayer Sacrifice of Silver City No. 13, Muyu Ling Lan, may not be comparable to William, but they are not much inferior.” Zhao Wenke said.
“What else?” Tie Zha continued to ask.
“Wait …” Zhao Wenke hesitated. “I noticed that when I mentioned Eva Green and Mu Yu Ling Lan, the expression on your face seemed a little unnatural.”
“Is that so?” Tie Zha asked with a puzzled expression.
“Maybe I’m overthinking it.” Then Zhao Wenke continued, “I heard from a friend that he met a young noble with good tactical talent at the Central Silver City Military Academy. He is the president of the Iron Blood Hero Society, and his name is Tony Croydon.”
“This person is a radical member of the nobles. He is useless to us.” Tie Zha said. The accusation at the auction was made by this person behind the scenes. Later, Eva gathered some evidence and sent him to prison for defamation.
“Bring that Bi Qinglan clone over, Bi Tianye, and you can also be our tactical commander.” Zhao Wenke said.
“She will definitely agree, and then we will wait for her to sell us to the sea.” Said Tie Zha.
“Then for the time being, there is no suitable candidate.” Zhao Wenke spread out his hands and said.
Afterwards, the two of them chatted about some trivial matters and prepared to go to bed. However, at this time, Tie Zha discovered that there was only one bed in the room. The two of them could not sleep, so he could only go to the living room and ask for another room from Qin Father and Qin Mother, who were still watching TV.
“Come, have a cup of tea.” Father Qin greeted.
“What? Did you guys quarrel?” “Uh” Mother Qin’s question almost made Tie Zha choke and spit out a mouthful of tea.
“Old woman, don’t ask so much. Young people have young people’s affairs.” Father Qin said with a frown.
“No, it’s just that the bed is too small to sleep in.” Tie Zha explained, but it was getting darker and darker.
“This” Father Qin and Mother Qin exchanged a glance, then pointed at the bungalow to the east and said, “Old woman, let him sleep in Ke Er’s room.”
Not long after, Mother Qin tidied up the room, put on a clean quilt, and brought Tie Zha over.
“Ke’er sleeps here when she’s home. Don’t be disgusted ~” Mother Qin said.
Looking around, the furniture in this room was very simple. The walls were covered with yellowed awards. All kinds of books and small items were arranged neatly, which was in line with Qin Ke’er’s habits. Last summer, out of curiosity, he sneaked into the girls’ dormitory in Egret Lake. Qin Ke’er tidied up everything from the desk to the bed. However, Mu Qian He was a little careless. Not only was the table messy, but his bra was also casually thrown by the bed. When he accidentally saw it, his face turned red on the spot.
A few months have passed, and I wonder how they are now …
“Thank you.” As he thought about it, Tie Zha looked at Mother Qin and said seriously.
“Rest early. I’ll make you dumplings tomorrow morning.” Mother Qin said with a smile.
After Mother Qin left, Tie Zha took off her coat and poured it on the bed. She smelled the faint fragrance of the bedding and quickly fell asleep.
He was speechless all night …
The next morning, at dawn of the genius, Qin Baoshan went out and brought a few fellows from the village to Yanyang Town with three fire mule carts to purchase supplies.
After Tie Zha got up, Qin Ke’er’s fourth sister brought him a basin of water to wash him up. Looking at his white hands and pretty face, he actually had a trace of evil intent. He was immediately shocked, and hurriedly stuffed two gold coins over to let her play by herself.
After washing up, he put on a tarpaulin uniform, put on an armor belt, and left the room. At this moment in the courtyard, Zhao Wenke was slowly stroking his movements. From the looks of it, it was the Eight Trigrams Palm that Bi Tianye had used on the ship.
“Come and play?” Tie Zha stepped forward and asked.
“No, it’s not good to break something.” Zhao Wenke immediately put away his actions and said.
“Let’s go outside and fight.” Tie Zha insisted.
“Don’t bully me” Zhao Wenke said truthfully. Tie Zha was a traditional evolutionary and insect-like being. He was a Tier 7 Psionic Adept, so unless he used his Power Armor or comprehended the [Psionic Starsand], there was no chance of him being able to deal with it.
“I’ve eaten dumplings!” At this moment, Mother Qin’s voice came from the kitchen.
“Let’s go, let’s eat dumplings.” Zhao Wenke hurriedly greeted.
After eating a steaming bowl of bok choi stuffed dumplings and drinking some dumpling soup, Mother Qin let them go to the living room to drink tea and watch TV.
After sitting down, Zhao Wenke fiddled with the tea set and boiled the Far East White Tea.
The correct way to drink Far East white tea is to boil it, not to brew it. Spoon a pot of water and boil it over a charcoal fire. Then pour the tea leaves into a wooden bowl from a bamboo can. Add red dates, crystal sugar, Chinese wolfberry and chrysanthemum. When the water boils, pour it in and boil for five minutes. Finally, use a large porcelain bowl to finish it. You can drink it.
“Have you heard of Bi Hai Qing Cha?” Seeing that Zhao Wenke knew a lot about tea, Tie Zha asked.
“The famous tea of the Azure Snake Clan of the Far East comes from the depths of the Myriad Spirits Mountains.” Zhao Wenke replied.
“I heard that the first bubble is used to wash cups, isn’t it?” Tie Zha asked.
“Could it be that Bi Qinglan told you?” Zhao Wenke smiled and guessed.
“How did you know?” Tie Zha was puzzled.
“In the entire Central Silver City Military Academy, only she can get Bluesea Green Tea.” Zhao Wenke said.
“Jade Sea Green Tea is actually not tea. It is a wisp of green leaf that accompanied the emergence of the green bamboo in early spring. It is like a bamboo rather than a bamboo. Not only is it rare, it is also extremely exquisite from gathering to making.”
“Because the best thing to drink is the first brew, the tea leaves cannot be washed. Therefore, the process of making the tea leaves must be kept absolutely clean.”
“But absolute cleanliness doesn’t exist, so we can only retreat and pursue a spiritual cleanliness.”
“This kind of cleanliness, from collection to production, was carefully selected by a young girl in her teenage years. Therefore, the Green Tea of the Bluesea is also called Virgin Tea.”
“It’s so rare, and the gathering and production personnel are so harsh. Without enough power, it would be impossible to accomplish it.”
After listening to Zhao Wenke’s explanation, Tie Zha couldn’t help but recall Bi Qinglan’s arrogant appearance that day, and his teeth immediately itched with hatred.
“To be honest, I’ve only heard of it. I’ve never drunk it before.” Zhao Wenke picked up the teacup and took a sip.
“Right, I don’t want to contact William Reinhart now. What should Bi Qinglan do?” Tie Zha asked.
“Tell me you’ve already contacted her. Anyway, she can’t find out if it’s true or false.” Zhao Wenke said.
“If it’s not necessary, I don’t want to lie.” Tie Zha frowned and said.
“Then let me tell you.” Zhao Wenke laughed and said.
“There’s no difference, and …” Tie Zha shook his head and said, “Bi Qinglan is not easy to deceive.”
“En” Zhao Wenke pondered for a while and said, “We should go to Desert Five as soon as possible. If it can threaten her mining industry, she will naturally not make things difficult for you.”
“Sigh” Tie Zha couldn’t help but sigh. It seemed that this was the only way. This crazy woman really gave him a headache.
