Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The Xuanling Ship and several Xuanyuan Ships filed back to Fengqian Valley. The people directly under the brigade transported the injured monks of the brigade to the Fengling Ship of the alliance, and sent them to Huangyue Mountain together with several other injured monks from the brigade, and placed them in the rear for recuperation. Rested.

Tangning returned to the room and dug out the seized storage bag. The items inside were mediocre. There were only a few hundred high-grade spiritual stones, two mediocre magic weapons, some fourth-grade low-grade elixirs, and a few cultivation materials. Nothing of particular value.

………

In the spacious and bright stone room, everyone gathered together. The brigade was directly under the original twenty-man squad. One person was missing and two were injured. Now there are only seventeen people left.

"I personally saw fellow Taoist Yuan Cheng of the third team being hit in the front by a cannonball from the opponent's spiritual weapon armor. His chest was pierced, and his whole body was deformed and shriveled. His appearance was horrible."

"When I was fighting against a monk on the other side, a cannonball happened to fall in front of me. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"That's nothing to you. After I killed a monk from the rebels, I happened to be targeted by a Xuanyuan ship from the other side. If the rebels hadn't retreated, it would have been difficult for me to retreat."

"But having said that, if you get injured in this battle, it's not a bad thing. You can rest in peace at the rear."

"It also depends on the specific injury. A minor injury like that of Senior Han from our team is acceptable. If it is an injury that shatters the golden core like Daoist Ma Xian from the second team, are you willing to do the same?"

Everyone was chatting indoors about the fierce battle with the rebels. After about half an hour, Ma Yu came in from the outside, went to the main seat above and took a seat, and said: "It depends on everyone to defeat the rebels this time." We worked together, and just now I went to the team to discuss matters. Senior Jiang Huan also emphatically praised several of our participating teams and said that he would take credit for us. "

"Fellow Daoist Han Jue and Daoist Zhang Zixiang were injured and were sent to Yuanxian County to recuperate. As for whether the alliance will provide us with additional manpower, it is not yet known."

"It is understood that the rebels dispatched a total of three regiments this time, divided into three groups. One group attacked Xuanying Pavilion, one group attacked Huangyue Mountain, and one group attacked Tianyi Mountain."

"And behind them, they found about a column of troops. The rebels were defeated just now. When the Huang Yueshan camp was pursuing them, they also discovered the opponent's supporting team, so they did not continue to pursue them."

"This is enough to show that the rebels are well prepared this time and will never give up because of a small defeat."

"The coalition speculates that the rebels are just testing the attack this time to find out the actual strength of our troops. Although the rebels have temporarily retreated, they will come back soon. The coalition requires all departments to be ready to fight at any time, so we are prohibited from doing so. Everyone is out."

"This is a fierce battle with the rebels. If any of you fellow Taoists have made meritorious deeds by killing the enemy, please let me know and I will report it to the alliance."

As soon as Ma Yu finished speaking, Tang Ning turned his hand over, stood up and handed him a token: "Tang was lucky enough to kill a Nascent Soul monk during the previous battle against the rebels. This man's surname was Zhang Minsui, and he was the leader of the first army of the rebels. Captain of the Fourth Squadron of the Fifth Brigade of the Sixth Column."

Everyone looked at him sideways, and Ma Yu smiled and said: "Senior Brother Tang is indeed the strongest fighter in our team. In this small test, he killed a rebel Nascent Soul monk."

"By luck, I got to kill a golden elixir monk from the rebel army. This person's surname is Xu Mingzhenxuan. He is a disciple of the seventh team of the fourth team of the first column of the first column of the rebel army." A man below stood up and said, handing over A token.

"Junior kills a golden elixir monk, this person's last name is..."

The coalition forces have clear reward standards for killing enemies.

According to the standards of the coalition forces, if a junior Jindan monk is killed, he will be rewarded with 100,000 spiritual stones and one point of meritorious deeds.

A monk in the middle stage of Jindan will be rewarded with 200,000 spiritual stones and two merit points.

A late-stage Jindan monk will be rewarded with 400,000 spiritual stones and four merit points.

A monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul will be rewarded with one million spiritual stones and ten merit points.

A monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul will be rewarded with two million spiritual stones and twenty merit points.

And so on...

Since the monk Tang Ning killed was the team leader, according to regulations, an additional ten points of merit should be recorded, which was equivalent to twenty points of merit.

The meritorious service of the coalition forces cannot be exchanged for corresponding spiritual stones and items like Taixuanzong, but it is the criterion for promotion and transfer within the coalition forces.

When the coalition was formed, all positions were transferred at the same level. The monks who originally held similar positions as team captains in various cultivating families still served as team captains in the coalition.

But there are always casualties in wars, not to mention monks at the level of team leader, even the top brass of the legion are inevitable.

When the leader of the team is killed, a qualified monk needs to be promoted to the command position.

This qualification is merit points, and obtaining ten merit points is enough to qualify as the team leader.

Thirty points of merit are enough to qualify as a brigade steward.

With fifty points of merit, you can serve as the deputy captain of the brigade.

With 70 points of merit, one can serve as a brigade inspector.

With ninety points of merit, one can serve as the captain of the brigade.

With 200 points of merit, you can serve as a wing steward.

And so on......

In addition, there are additional rewards within Taixuan Sect for disciples who are sent to the front line to participate in the war and obtain meritorious service. The points of coalition meritorious service obtained during the war will be counted as the basis, and then ten times more will be calculated into the disciple's personal meritorious service value.

For example, Tang Ning killed the rebel Nascent Soul early stage monk and received 20 points of merit from the coalition. After returning to the sect, her merit points will be increased by 200 points.

Moreover, after being promoted in the alliance, the salary was paid according to the current position. Tang Ning is now in the late Nascent Soul cultivation level, and her salary is 48 million per year.

According to Taixuanzong's regulations, the team leader will receive an additional 10 million spiritual stones every year, and the team manager will receive an additional 15 million spiritual stones.

If he could hold an official position in the coalition forces, Emperor Taixuanzong would also provide him with additional salary based on his position in the coalition forces.

Inside the house, several people reported their gains one by one. A total of three people had made gains. Except for Tang Ning, the other two were all Golden Core cultivators.

Ma Yu said a bunch of high-sounding and insignificant words. After the discussion, everyone left.

…

At night, at the border of Xuanying Pavilion, many warships were suspended in the air in strict formation.

In the distance, a faint light flickered, and a row of warships came towards them.

On the deck of the Tianling ship, several rays of light fell and went straight into the cabin.

In the room, everyone gathered together. A man came in from outside and bowed to Ding Ying, who was sitting on the throne.

"Fellow Daoist Huang is back, please take a seat." The man followed the instructions and took his seat.

"I'm relieved that everyone has returned safely. Fellow Daoist Yang, please tell me about the situation you know first!"

A short and fat man below said: "I led the 8th Regiment to attack Xuanying Pavilion. Two or three thousand miles away, I encountered an attack from Xuanying Pavilion's garrison. The other party was very cautious. Maybe they were worried that we had an ambush, so they only dispatched troops at first. After the two sides exchanged fire, about half an hour later, the other side's support team poured out from Tingcheng, so we did not continue to struggle and issued a retreat order, and they did not pursue it. "

"I captured a Nascent Soul cultivator from the other side. He was the deputy captain of the Fourth Brigade of the Third Wing of the Seventh Column. According to his account, there were two or three regiments in Xuanying Pavilion, and the overall commander was the Seventh Column. Deputy Captain Huang Xian, but a teleportation array has been built inside Xuanying Pavilion, and the high-level monks at the rear can support the front line at any time."

Ding Ying nodded and looked at the other man: "Fellow Daoist Huang, how is the situation over there?"

The man surnamed Huang responded: "As far as I know, there is a regiment in Huang Yueshan, which belongs to the fifth regiment of the enemy's fifth column. The two small battalions on the left and right sides each have about half the strength of the regiment, and they are the seventh. The commander of the sixth and seventh regiments of the column is Yang Ye, the inspector of the seventh column. "

"Where is Fellow Daoist Yang?"

"Like fellow Daoist Huang, I have a regiment in Tianyi Mountain, which belongs to the eighth regiment of the seventh column. The small battalions on the left and right sides each have half a regiment of troops. The ninth and tenth regiments belong to the seventh column. The commander is Hou Baolin, the officer in charge of the seventh column.”

Ding Ying pondered and said: "So, the total strength of the seven camps in Xuanying Pavilion is six to seven regiments. What are the casualties among your various units in this battle?"

"Our headquarters engaged in a battle with the enemy. Currently, one hundred and three people are missing and 91 injured."

"Eighty-seven people from our headquarters are missing and 62 injured."

"Ninety-one people are missing from our headquarters and 70 are injured."

The man surnamed Yang said: "Fellow Daoist Ding, the opponent has six or seven regiments of troops, as well as large defensive formations and solid fortifications. It is difficult for us to conquer with our current manpower. If we attack forcefully, it will only increase casualties. I think it is better to attack them with force." Fellow Daoist Fang's troops will be transferred back. Otherwise, our wounded troops will not be enough."

"I agree with what Yang Daoyou said. There are five or six regiments in Xuanying Pavilion, and there will be many if they want to come to Huang Yanting. It is simply impossible to divide the troops to attack them. For the current plan, we can only concentrate our forces to attack a pavilion first. City, and then wait for follow-up support to arrive.”

"What do fellow Taoists think?" Ding Ying looked at the crowd and asked.

Several people nodded in agreement.

"In that case, Fellow Daoist Yang, would you please go to Huang Yanting to recall Fellow Daoist Fang's troops. We will build a defensive formation here as a base."
