Chronicles of Celestial Origins

At night, while he was practicing with his eyes closed, a disciple knocked on the door.

"Uncle Tang, my disciple Zhang Qian, by order of Uncle Lingwan, please come to the house to have a brief introduction."

"Okay." Tang Ning responded and immediately arrived at his cave. In addition to Ling Wan, there was another man inside, the team manager Pang Tong.

He was originally wondering why Ling Wan came to talk to him in the middle of the night, but when he saw Pang Tong, he immediately understood his intention, which was just to win over the two of them and build a small mountain.

Only three of the ten stewards of the alliance are disciples of Taixuan Sect. As the supervisor, Ling Wan must win over these two if she wants to increase her voice in the alliance.

In the Qingzhou Alliance Army, the regiment is the basic combat unit and serves as a link between the past and the next.

In many years of confrontation with the rebels, the regiment is the lowest level of combat power and has the qualifications to fight independently. For example, when guarding a certain pavilion city, the column often requires several regiments to divide their troops to contain the enemy. At this time, The wing will have operational autonomy.

When it comes to operational decision-making, the top leaders of the wing may have disagreements. At this time, it depends on their respective influence. This is a matter of life and death and cannot be taken lightly.

"Senior Sister Ling." Tang Ning stepped forward and bowed.

Ling Wan is in her thirties, and is in the middle stage of becoming a god. Although she is a woman, she has a heroic demeanor and looks elegant.

"Junior Brother Tang is here, please take a seat."

Tang Ning took her seat as instructed.

"In fact, there is nothing particularly important in inviting two junior brothers here today. We will fight side by side in the same team for a long time in the future. We should understand each other. I hope that the two junior brothers will not find me noisy."

Pang Tong responded: "Sister Ling, you're welcome. Only three of us among the team leaders are disciples of the sect. The others are members of the aristocratic families and Netherworld Sea. I don't doubt their determination to fight against the rebels."

"It's just that they may not have the same ideas as us on some things. We are responsible not only for the sect and the coalition, but also for the hundreds of sect disciples in the brigade and squad. Senior Sister Ling serves as the supervisor of the headquarters and has a heavy responsibility in the coalition. "If you have any ideas, you can tell me at any time. If you need support, just ask."

Seeing that what he said was so straightforward, Tang Ning had no choice but to follow suit: "We should follow Senior Sister Ling's lead."

"I have some confidence in what these two junior brothers said." Ling Wan smiled and said: "Since this headquarters is a new reorganized team, the legion takes care of us and allocates a special fund to support all aspects of the team's expenses. There are about 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones. I have discussed it with fellow Taoist Zeng before. This fund will be distributed according to the old rules. I wonder what the two junior brothers think?"

"Senior Sister Ling takes charge of everything."

"Senior Sister Ling has the final say in this matter."

The two of them had no objection. Such a small amount of spirit stones was nothing to them, monks in the transformation stage. It was almost the cost of a month's worth of pills.

Tang Ning's heart suddenly moved: "Senior Sister Ling, what's the attitude of those people in Netherworld Sea towards this matter? I heard that they have very strict disciplines and have many rules regarding property. Are they willing to accept this distribution plan?"

After hearing what he said, Pang Tong also cast a curious look, obviously very interested in the comparison.

"I don't know what the other people's attitudes are. Fellow Taoist Jiang Yu didn't raise any objections."

………

While the three of them were chatting, in another cave, deputy captain Jiang Yu, Xu Wenruo, and Yuan Xiangdie gathered in a room.

"After today's discussion, Zeng Yang left me and Ling Wan behind and said that the legion would allocate an additional fund to the headquarters for various expenses. There are a total of 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones. According to their usual distribution plan, I see The two of them have made the decision, so they have not spoken out against it. What do the two fellow Taoists think? Should we accept this spiritual stone?"

Both of them looked at Xu Wenruo. Although Jiang Yu had better cultivation and a higher position in the coalition army, his status in the Nether Sea Branch of Donglai County was completely inferior to Xu Wenruo, especially since he also served as a supervisor in Yuanxian County. A number of people have been investigated and punished in the Yuanxian County branch over the years.

Even the deputy director of the Yuanxian County branch, a dignified mid-level monk in the Void Refining Stage, fell into his hands, which made him famous. Many managers in the branches in the following cities were afraid of and resentful to him.

Jiang Yu was originally the deputy director of Qianyue City under Yuanxian County. He had always been in awe of him and knew his connections and energy within the organization. When he was working in Qianyue City, he was often worried that he would cause trouble for him. Now he is assigned to the same team. Who dares to decide financial ownership without authorization?

Xu Wenruo smiled and said: "Why don't you accept the spiritual stones that are delivered to your door? If we don't accept this spiritual stone, wouldn't it be cheaper for them?"

"Then, after receiving this spiritual stone according to their distribution plan, should I report it to the superior organization?"

Xu Wenruo said: "I don't think it's necessary. It's impossible for the headquarters not to know about the allocation of funds for the Qingzhou Coalition. Since the higher-ups agreed to Xuanmen and the Jiang family's request to disrupt our scattered structure and join the Qingzhou Coalition, they didn't mention it specifically. This attitude should be tacit approval of this matter.”

"Having said that, for the long-term development of the organization, so many brothers in this department joined the Qingzhou Alliance Army and fought desperately with the rebels. They all risked their lives. The superiors should also give them some sweetness. These spiritual stones should not be turned over."

"Furthermore, the funds for the coalition are borne by Taixuanzong and the Jiang family, and the spiritual stones are not produced by the headquarters. They cannot be charged with embezzlement of property. If you two are worried, you should accept the spiritual stones first. If your superiors explicitly require it, Hand it in, it’s not too late to hand it in.”

After hearing his words, the two felt relieved.

"Since Fellow Daoist Xu has said so, let's just do as the Romans do and follow the allied forces' usual distribution plan!"

"I don't know why Taixuanzong and the Jiang family insist on letting their scattered organization join the Qingzhou Alliance. During the previous battle in Qinghai, didn't we also maintain an independent organization and form an alliance with them? Why does it have to be so complicated this time?"

"At this time, in the last Qinghai war, we had no territory in Qingzhou, and the Mubei demon directly threatened only Donglai County. In order to squeeze into Qingzhou and get a base, the headquarters participated in the war in Qinghai. What we gained There is only a small part of Donglai County and Qinghai territory under its jurisdiction, but so many brothers were killed and injured. It is difficult to say whether this transaction is a win or a loss. "

"But one thing is certain. If we hadn't helped the Qingzhou coalition defeat the Mubei demon back then, we wouldn't have been able to gain a place in Qingzhou, and we would have no reason or qualification to squeeze into the internal chaos of Qingzhou today."

"This time we have fully assisted Taixuanzong and Jiang Chang in defeating the rebels. The benefits gained are far greater than those in the Qinghai War. In the future, the entire Qingzhou will be a tripartite force of our own, Taixuanzong, and the Jiang family."

"Tai Xuanzong and the Jiang family are worried that if we maintain an independent establishment, we will not be able to work hard when fighting the rebels. If they lose too much fighting the rebels, and our headquarters maintains its strength, in the future when the three pillars of Qingzhou confront each other, , our strength will surpass them, so we insist on blending into the Qingzhou coalition. "

"Besides that! I think they have other considerations. The headquarters has always been strict, with strong centripetal force and cohesion, while the Qingzhou Alliance Army has lazy discipline. Joining the headquarters can improve the overall combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Alliance Army."

………

Time flies by like a flash, half a year passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, the rebels encountered almost no resistance and successfully captured Yuanxian County. The army has already moved to Yunxuan City to confront Yuanxia City. It may happen at any time Fighting broke out again.

In front of the meeting hall of the Third Wing of the Fifth Column, Tang Ning escaped from the light and walked straight into the inner room. Several people were already sitting inside. He nodded with a few people and then took a seat next to Ling Wan on the left.

As time went by, the wing stewards and captains of each brigade arrived one after another.

Zeng Yang saw that everyone had arrived and said, "After receiving the order from the legion, our column is required to set off immediately and go to Li Poting first. You go and prepare separately, assemble your team, and set off in two hours."

"Yes." The captains of each brigade stood up and responded, and filed out of the hall. As early as three months ago, the legion issued an order that no monks from the brigade were allowed to go out privately unless there were emergencies or special circumstances.

Since then, the news of the war has not stopped, and everyone knows that the war will come soon. Therefore, today the regiment suddenly held a meeting and announced that it would be stationed on the front line. Everyone was not surprised, but at most they were a little sad.

"The legion suddenly summoned its column to Li Poting. Are the rebels already preparing to attack Li Poting?" Pang Tong asked.

Libo Pavilion is located to the west of Yuanxia City, bordering Yunxuan City in Yuanxian County. The legion ordered the column to march into the pavilion. The first reaction of everyone was that the rebels were about to attack.

"The coalition forces are about to launch a counterattack against Yuanxian County, so they ordered the headquarters column to be the vanguard and attack Yunxuan City. They will first seize the three pavilion cities bordering the city as strongholds to wait for subsequent troops to advance. In addition to the headquarters column, the sixth The column and the seventh column were also ordered to garrison Zhangzhiting and Yuyating, and then they would launch an attack on Yunxuan City together with the headquarters column. "

Hearing what he said, everyone was a little surprised. They originally thought that the column went to Liboting to prevent the rebels from invading, but they never thought that they were going to counterattack Yuanxian County.
