Chronicles of Celestial Origins

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Tangning was sitting cross-legged in the room. There was a knock on the door. He stood up and opened the door. Zhang Han led a man with a broad forehead and broad face to the front of the house.

Before he could speak, the man took the lead and said: "Fellow Taoist Tang, Master Zhuang has invited me, please come with me!"

"Okay." Tang Ning responded. The two of them jumped up and arrived in front of a palace. The man chatted with the disciples on duty in front of the palace for a few words and then entered the inner room.

Inside, Zhuang Zhongde and Bai Jintang were chatting. The man walked up to them, bowed and said, "Uncle, Tang Ning has been brought here and is waiting for you outside the hall."

Bai Jintang stood up and said, "Senior Brother Zhuang, I won't bother you too much and will take my leave first."

Zhuang Zhongde nodded and said: "Okay, next time I have a chance, I will go to Junior Brother Bai's house to visit him."

Not long after Tang Ning waited outside the palace, she saw Bai Jintang coming out of the palace and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Bai Jintang said: "I have inquired about the movements of the disciples in the past few days. This group of monks has been sent to various islands in Qinghai to build garrison fortifications. They should be on their way to the islands now. As for the specific distribution of the disciples, Which island is determined by the team responsible for transporting it, so there is no way to know. "

When Tangning heard this, she felt a little worried. Fortunately, the alliance troops in Mubei had not moved south yet and the war had not started yet, so she should not be in any danger.

Bai Jintang continued: "When I have the opportunity in the future, I will ask someone to find out about the disciple and see if she can be transferred from the front line."

"Thank you, senior." Tang Ning bowed and saluted.

"Let's go! Your transfer procedures have been completed, and my fleet is waiting outside."

"yes."

Bai Jintang waved his hand, and his spiritual power enveloped him and he flew into the sky. He walked all the way out of the headquarters camp. After walking for about half an hour, he came to a barren mountain. Above it, a wind spirit boat with a size of more than a thousand feet was parked in mid-air. .

The whole body of the Dharma boat was filled with brilliance, and the three characters "Feiyang" were engraved on the fluttering flags at the bow and stern.

Bai Jintang's escape light carried him to the top deck, and the garrison disciples on duty on both sides bowed their heads and saluted.

Bai Jintang nodded slightly and walked into the cabin.

There are three to four hundred feet of space inside, filled with many precision spiritual weapons. There are eight huge consoles on the left and right sides, with countless slots and buttons.

The cabin is divided into dozens of rooms. Overall, it is no different from the Wind Spirit Ship that Fang Dasheng had originally built.

There were more than ten figures sitting cross-legged in the cabin. When they saw the two people entering, they all stood up and saluted. Some called them Senior Bai, and some called them Uncle Bai.

Bai Jintang led him from the central passage in the cabin to the lowest level. There were several figures sitting cross-legged inside. Their lowest cultivation level had reached the realm of Nascent Soul, and two of them had even reached the realm of divine transformation.

Several people glanced at Tangning and then looked away. A burly man said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, have all the matters been settled?"

"Yes." Bai Jintang nodded slightly: "Let's set off!"

"Yes." Everyone was operating the console for a while, and the Wind Spirit Ship burst into light, followed by a loud rumble, and sped towards the southwest.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, Fellow Daoist Liu, this is Tang Ning, a disciple of the sect from Qinghai who came to help us. He is now transferred to our team. I have decided to keep him under the direct command of the alliance. What do you two think?"

The two of them glanced at him, and the man surnamed Liu said: "Fellow Daoist Bai can just decide on some small matters. There is no need to discuss it with us. Is this what Daoist Bai mentioned before?"

Bai Jintang said: "To be honest, he is the husband-in-law of my senior sister's beloved disciple. Before leaving, I was entrusted by him to transfer him out of the frontline headquarters."

"That's it." The man surnamed Liu nodded.

"Tangning, come with me." Bai Jintang led him into a room.

The interior is only a few feet in diameter, with a few cabinets placed on both sides, but otherwise, there is nothing else.

Bai Jintang said: "I am currently the captain of the seventh regiment of the third column of the fourth army of the Allied Army. There are more than a thousand monks in the entire regiment, all disciples of various Xuanmen sects. You have been at the headquarters for nearly a year. Do you want to come? Have a certain understanding of the Qingzhou Allied Forces as a whole."

"Our wing is composed of ten brigades and the wing's direct subordinates. The wing's direct subordinates have about a hundred people. The direct subordinates are divided into three parts. The main team is commanded by me, and the other two deputy teams are commanded by the wing inspector and the deputy captain. ”

"The two people just now are the stewards of the alliance. From now on, you join our team and are directly under the second team. Is there any problem?"

Tang Ning said: "This junior will follow the senior's arrangements."

"Our Fourth Army Corps is currently responsible for the security mission. It is mainly responsible for guarding Donglai County. Of course, it sometimes performs other tasks. I will let you familiarize yourself with the Feiyang Wind Spirit Ship later. You are at the headquarters. I have been in the subordinate team for a while, so I should know something about the red armored chariot!"

"Yes." Tangning responded: "This junior has been on duty with the team for half a year. He knows a little about the operation and use of the red armored chariot, but he is not familiar with it."

Bai Jintang said: "The Wind Spirit Ship and the Red Armored Chariot are essentially the same, but they are more sophisticated. Since you understand the structure of the Red Armored Chariot, I believe you should be able to quickly master the control of the Wind Spirit Ship."

Tangning nodded, hesitated for a while, and then asked, "Senior, this junior is confused about something. I don't know whether to ask or not."

"It doesn't matter if you have anything to say."

Tang Ning said: "This junior has been traveling all the way. Wherever he passed, he saw powerful warships and chariots coming one after another, all the way to the Qinghai Sea. It can be said that the flags covered the sun, and the boats were thousands of miles away. I was shocked, but also had a doubt. ”

"Take the red-armored chariot as an example. Although it is a third-level spiritual weapon, the cannonballs on it can cause damage to Yuanying-level monks. Based on this, the wind spirit ship is a fifth-level armament spiritual weapon, and the power of heavy artillery fire is It's enough to deal with a monk at the level of a god."

"Xuanmen has dominated the world for a long time, and its financial resources and manpower are far beyond the reach of the demons in Mubei. It also has such powerful spiritual weapons. But why is it that from top to bottom, no matter the posture or words, everyone adopts a defensive posture? , many people even hold a pessimistic attitude, thinking that Qinghai cannot be defended for a long time.”

"Are the demons in Mubei really that powerful? With the entire power of Qingzhou and Tai Xuanzong personally killing them, they can't be suppressed?"

Bai Jintang said: "I did not personally go to Mubei to participate in the war there, but the brothers who came back said that I know a little bit about them. How can I put it! The overall strength of Qingzhou Xuanmen is definitely no less than that of Mubei Alliance. Army, the problem is morale and combat effectiveness.”

"The biggest weakness of the monks is the human heart. Everyone has their own ideas. If the hearts of the people are not unified, the orders will be inconsistent. In addition, the intrigues between the various sects have led to a sharp decline in the overall combat effectiveness."

"To give a simple analogy, take your Xingang Xuanmen sect as an example. Qianyi Sect, Shuiyun Sect and Qingyang Sect are going to fight against the demons. The first question is who will take the lead, and no one is willing to put their sect at the forefront. "

"Then we start negotiating. The result will inevitably be that we cannot negotiate, and we cannot ignore the demon's offensive. In the end, we will make compromises. Each sect will send some disciples to the front line to fight against the demon."

"After the first issue is resolved, the second issue comes immediately, which is the issue of command authority. Who will command this combined army? After further negotiation, each of the three sects sent a command representative."

"This one serves as captain, and that one serves as deputy team leader and supervisor."

"But does this solve the problem?"

"The answer is obvious, the problem remains and only the surface of it is being addressed."

"The essence of command power is definitely not a piece of paper and a few names. The essence of power is from bottom to top."

"You must be recognized by everyone at the bottom before you truly have the power and your orders will be effective."

"The so-called captain, deputy captain, and inspector are just empty letters. Qian Yizong disciples will only obey the orders of the Qian Yizong senior officials. They will not care about your title of captain, deputy captain, or inspector. In the same way, Shuiyun Sect and Qingyang Sect are also average."

"How can a team with multiple orders form effective combat effectiveness?"

"Behind the issue of command authority, it reflects the decline of the overall combat effectiveness. Once they fight against the demons, if the Qian Yi Zong dies too many, they will of course find ways to reduce casualties and stay behind as much as possible."

"When Shuiyun Sect and Qingyang Sect saw this situation, they naturally didn't want to be the first ones and charged into the battle. Each of the three sects had their own ideas, and they all wanted to make the other party face the demons and attack them head-on. Naturally, they would be defeated."

"Not only are the various sects harboring evil intentions, but also the same among fellow sects. People's selfishness cannot be changed. If we look at the violent attacks of monsters and the death and injury of a large number of monks, how many people can stand up and fight against them? Come out!”

"At that time, they will have to look after themselves and become a piece of loose sand."

"This is the weakness of monks and humans, but for the demon clan, there is no such weakness."

"The demon clan has a strict hierarchy, and their way of thinking is completely different from that of the monks."

"They pay attention to the overall and racial nature. The subordinates are completely obedient to the superiors. The subordinates will carry out the orders of the superiors to the letter, even if it requires them to end their own lives."

"This way of thinking, placed on the confrontation between the two armies, makes them extremely powerful in combat. The demon clan's representative attack method is to launch a large-scale death charge. As long as the leader gives an order, all the demon clan will follow one after another. Charge at your opponent fearlessly."

"Even when they are injured, or when they think they can't complete the task, they take the initiative to explode the demon elixir to end their own lives in exchange for causing maximum damage to the enemy."
