"When ye Qinglin ascended the throne, even Ge Zhenren led his disciples to the King City to congratulate, but Chen Zhenren and Princess Dong invited me to Lukai gorge at this time. Why?" Miao Mingcheng stopped over the Tianxuan lake with his lynx spirit beast. He really couldn''t figure out the intentions of Chen Hai and Dong Ning.
Chen Hai and Dong Ning invited Ge Xuanqiao to meet him when they went to the King City of Western Qiang. Presumably, some people didn''t want Ge Xuanqiao to know, or taiweizong and Dong behind Ge Xuanqiao. But then again, as the daughter of Dong Shou, the Marquis of Qin, what would Dong Ning do behind her back?
Miao Mingcheng is full of doubts.
Since persuading Zhang Xiong to be imprisoned in Lucheng, Chen Hai and Dong Ning''s many actions, including allowing the demon temple to actually separate Changle City, have actually suppressed Dong''s possible ambition for Pinglu oasis, which Miao Mingcheng can''t understand.
"Is it difficult for immortal Miao to be afraid that I have laid a snare in this castle?" Chen Hai said with a smile.
Miao Mingcheng smiled, but he didn''t worry about it.
Chen Haizhen wanted to get rid of him. He has been in Lucheng these days, with more than ten disciples around him. He has no chance to escape. Even if Chen Hai wants to cover the eyes and ears of the world, he can use other means or excuses to lure him out of Lucheng, or send someone to assassinate him when he goes to the King City of Western Qiang to participate in Ye Qinglin''s succession ceremony. In this way, he can also blame other forces. There is really no need to lay a snare in lukaixia.
Chen Hai invited Miao Mingcheng to follow him and Dong Ning into the castle.
Flying over the cloud shrouded city wall, Miao Mingcheng saw that a corner of the hanging lake was surrounded by the city wall. There were waterways inside and outside the castle. There was also a small lake dock port in the southeast corner of the castle. At this time, he saw a prismatic ship sealed with iron armor stopping in front of the dock port.
Miao Mingcheng realized that the two prismatic shadows at the bottom of the lake he had just seen were the potential bottom of the lake.
At this time, someone unloaded a truck of black mud glittering with metal light from the prismatic cabin and transported it to the building north of the city base. Miao Mingcheng could feel that there were two small flame gathering runes running there.
Miao Mingcheng has been collecting information about juquanling these days. Seeing this scene, he can naturally see what secrets are hidden in Bailu Kaixia.
In the battle of Yuchi City, the number of quenched gold arrows shot by the Jingjue army far exceeded their previous estimation. Miao Mingcheng thought that taiweizong had another secret channel. He bypassed the eyes and ears of the demon temple and imported a large number of quenched gold arrows into Lucheng. Who knows that lukaixia has such a secret.
At the same time, Miao Mingcheng doesn''t know why Chen Hai revealed such a secret to him. Doesn''t he know how many forces will jump over and compete frantically once the secret is revealed?
Chen Hai stared at Miao Mingcheng''s suspicious pupils and said with a smile:
"The core components needed to manufacture a divine aircraft chariot or a medium-sized divine aircraft crossbow, as well as 20000 kg of Grade 8 quenched gold and iron materials, and change a grade 8 spiritual bird or grade 7 spiritual beast in the demon Temple -- will the demon Temple suffer from such a deal?"
"..." Miao Mingcheng stared at Chen Hai in disbelief and then looked at Dong Ning. He couldn''t believe what Chen Hai said at this time.
Both Shenji chariots and medium-sized Shenji crossbows have weaknesses, but their power has also been tested in the battlefield at the West foot of tieleling.
The demon temple is stronger than the Royal beast, and is not good at refining tools and mechanism puppetry. This is also an important reason why the demon temple was badly damaged in the western expedition more than 20 years ago.
In recent years, the demon temple has retreated to the depths of Dajin mountain to rest and recuperate. Its strength has been restored. It has gathered thousands of disciples again, and there will be thousands of elite disciples above the spirit realm. However, due to the serious weakening of its control over the countries in the eastern region of Jinzhou in recent 20 years, the disadvantages of the demon temple in tool refining and mechanism puppet art have been more exposed.
After all, it takes huge manpower to mine and smelt the extremely precious gold and iron of the smelter and the puppet of the manufacturing mechanism. This is not something that can be completed independently by retreating into the demon Temple deep in Dajin mountain and having only thousands of disciples at this time.
You know, in the mines and smelters at the east foot of tieleling, the Zhang family in Lucheng used four or five thousand slaves to work hard. Only three or five million kilograms of precision forged iron and tens of thousands of kilograms of the most common quenched gold iron are produced every year.
In the Tahe oasis, which is more than twice as large as Pinglu, the gold and iron smelting materials that can be refined every year in the mines and refineries controlled by the various Zong valve tribes are only 300000 or 400000 kilograms.
Miao Mingcheng is very confused. He doesn''t believe it. Chen Hai and Dong Ning don''t know what it will mean if the demon Temple gets a stable supply of quenched gold and iron; I don''t believe that taiweizong will tolerate Chen Hai and Dong Ning to supply a large number of high-quality quenched gold and iron materials to the demon temple.
At this time, the demon temple is about to regain full control of the Tibetan and Qiang countries located in the south of the Tahe oasis. Even so, all the gold and iron mines in the Tibetan and Qiang countries can smelt only tens of thousands of kilograms of ordinary nine grade gold and iron materials every year, which can be converted into forty or fifty thousand kilograms of eight grade gold and iron materials.
For the sect with only thousands of disciples, 40000 or 50000 kilograms of high-quality gold and iron materials are barely enough. After all, hundreds of xuanbing armor can be refined every year, which is enough to make up for consumption.
However, there are too few countries with a population of 56 million, 200000 troops and frequent wars.
If the demon temple is a pure sect, many elite disciples need to refine magic weapons and spirit swords, and there is a stronger demand for pure xuantai refined iron, Zichen placer gold and other precious gold and iron. However, the demon Temple wants to support the Tibetan and Qiang countries to unify Tahe oasis, and even continue to expand its forces to the periphery to restore the great glory of ruling the eastern region of Jinzhou in those years. The key is to provide sufficient gold and iron materials.
In front of the Shenji chariot and Shenji crossbow, the strong in the Mingqiao realm and even the daodan realm also appear vulnerable.
The battle of yuchicheng further showed that the quenched gold and iron materials that can be supplied in large quantities are the strategic materials that really determine the strength of the two forces.
Now the demon temple can exchange 20000 kg of high-quality quenched gold and iron with a level 8 spirit bird or a level 7 spirit beast. It also comes with a set of core components of a divine machine chariot or a medium-sized divine machine crossbow?
Miao Ming Chengdu is a little hard to believe that Chen Hai offered this condition.
"I believe the demon temple is not the enemy of Jingjue City, and I hope the demon Temple believes that Jingjue city will not be the enemy of the demon temple in the future," Chen Hai and Dong Ning looked at each other and continued to say to Miao Mingcheng, "Of course, if the demon Temple wants to secretly trade quenched gold and iron materials with us, the premise is that the demon Temple needs to ensure that it will no longer try to disturb the situation of Pinglu oasis - the primary goal of the Tibetan and Qiang country is to unify Tahe oasis. After the Tibetan and Qiang countries unify Tahe oasis, to the west of Tahe oasis, they control the mohuo religion of large tribes such as Nica and the barbarians south of Dajinshan, Is the imminent enemy of the demon temple at this time. "
"If I know well, immortal Chen is a disciple of taiweizong, and Princess Dong is the daughter of marquis Dong..." Miao Mingcheng still can''t believe it. Chen Hai and Dong Ning dare to make such a deal with the demon temple without telling taiweizong.
Although the two sects have not completely torn their faces at this time, whether it is the demon temple or too Weizong, weakening each other is the fundamental policy of the sect.
Chen Hai and Dong Ning trade with the demon temple without telling taiweizong, which can be said to be a betrayal of the clan and clan.
"As I said before, I believe the demon temple is not our enemy. Even if zongmen has misunderstandings for a while, they will come to understand in the end," Chen Hai said with a smile, "Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding by the sect, the news can''t be concealed. The demon temple can only claim internally or externally that what we trade is only the parts of the divine aircraft chariot or the divine aircraft crossbow. The demon temple has mastered a high-quality mine from other places..."
The use of Shenji crossbow with a large number of quenched gold arrows will enhance its power to the extreme. If juquanling simply supplies Shenji crossbow and Shenji chariot parts to the demon temple through Jingjue City, taiweizong can''t say anything. After all, juquanling will supply arms and war equipment to the outside world to support itself in the future -- juquanling''s war equipment and ordnance are not specially supplied for Hexi family.
In addition, Shenji crossbows and Shenji chariots can only be regarded as middle and low-level goods in mechanism puppetry. Once they are used on a large scale, it is not difficult for each family to imitate them.
The core problem is the supply of a large number of quenched gold and iron materials.
"I have to go back to zongmen for this matter." Miao Mingcheng said solemnly.
The demon temple is not simply a problem of supplying medium and low-level spiritual birds and animals. At the same time, it is necessary to spread the driving methods of medium and low-level spiritual birds and animals. Miao Mingcheng can''t make a decision at this time.
Many religious sects in Yanzhou have the tradition of raising spiritual birds and animals. These spiritual birds and animals have been raised in the religious sects since childhood. They are very close to their children. Naturally, there is no problem of control, but this training method takes a long time.
In fact, most of the spirit birds and spirit beasts supplied by the demon temple are captured from the wasteland south of Wushaoling and Dajinshan, and controlled by special animal control methods.
Taiweizong''s method of training and raising black feather spirit vultures was established based on the taiweishan mountain and the vast area of Hexi controlled by Dong. Even so, taiweizong can supply 30 or 50 medium and low-level spirit birds every year. Once a large-scale war breaks out, it is not enough to make up for the damage of the war.
Chen Hai wants to expand the scale of Jingjue army''s war bird camp in a short time, and wants to integrate hundreds of war animals into Jingjue army. The only object of cooperation is the demon temple.
Chen Hai did not urge Miao Mingcheng either, saying: "I can''t see my identity after all, and I won''t go to the king''s city to congratulate Ye Qinglin on his succession. I''ll wait here for more days and wait for the good news from immortal Miao -- however, to show our sincerity and not to fool the demon temple, immortal Miao can visit our smelting furnace, and the demon Temple won''t worry that we can''t supply so much gold and iron..."
Lukaixia has built two smelting furnaces, with a daily output of 10000 kg of quenched gold and iron, which Miao Mingcheng never dared to imagine in the past.
But the demon temple has lost the opportunity to completely control Pinglu oasis. Perhaps it is the best choice for the demon temple to choose to trade with the Jingjue capital guard.
