Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Chapter 244. A New Type of Militia

When Zhang He led the Blackwater Army to Jiehe to fight against the demon army, the Blackwater County behind was also preparing for battle.

In Zhaoling City, there is a compound surrounded by high walls. The surrounding area of ​​the compound is heavily guarded, and outsiders are not allowed to get close.

At this time, all the refiners in Heishui County had gathered in the compound, and they were working overtime to refine spiritual tools.

Every evening, a group of blackwater troops would send a batch of refining materials, and at the same time transport away the refined spiritual tools.

Under the circumstances that many refiners are working hard, more than one hundred spiritual tools can be refined every day.

These refined spiritual tools will be immediately distributed to the militiamen.

There are currently 100,000 militiamen in Heishui County, all of whom are ordinary tenants. They usually farm and only practice when they are free. Naturally, their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the army composed of cultivators.

It's just that the expenses required to support an army of cultivators are really too high. The price of a pill for an ordinary Qi cultivator is enough to make more than 1,000 tenants work for you.

But what you pay for is what you get, if you let the tenants go into battle with big swords and long grass, how is it different from directly feeding the monsters?

So Zhang He's plan is to allocate at least 40,000 spiritual tools to the 100,000 militiamen.

If possible, of course he would like to equip all the militiamen with spiritual weapons.

It's just that the manufacturing cost of spiritual tools is not cheap. Based on the market price, a spiritual tool of the same quality costs at least 80 spirit stones.

Heishui County develops and refines it by itself, and the cost is much cheaper, and the cost price is about 20 spirit stones.

40,000 pieces would cost 800,000 spirit stones, which was already an astronomical figure compared to the income of Heishui County. In order to refine these spirit tools, the old bottom had been emptied.

Fortunately, this spiritual tool developed by Huya is mainly made of copper. Heishui County has its own copper veins, so there is no need to spend too much spiritual stone to buy raw materials.

Ten thousand spirit implements have been saved before, and all of them have been distributed during this period of time.

The militiamen who have received the spiritual tools have already started training and practicing.

Every village has a grain drying field, which is used to dry grain during busy farming seasons, and becomes a training ground for militiamen during slack farming seasons.

Fighting with spiritual weapons is fundamentally different from the swords, guns, swords and halberds used before.

Especially the soldiers who use spiritual tools now are ordinary tenants, but they need to fight against the ferocious army of demons.

This should be something that cultivators can only do, but now it has fallen to them.

On a grain drying field, more than 50 militiamen from the whole village gathered here, arranged in three neat rows.

Each of them holds a cylinder as thick as a forearm, with one end of the cylinder aligned forward.

Listen, everyone, imagine that there is an army of demons in front of you, and they will rush to tear your bodies apart, trample your crops, and kill your parents and children.

What you have to do now is to pick up the weapons in your hands and blast them to pieces.

A teacher was agitating loudly beside him, his eloquence was not very good, and he had to ponder over these words for a long time last night before he could come up with them.

Now, I will give each of you a chance to try out the operation of spiritual tools. I hope you can grasp it well. You must know that once you bombard it, it is worth several thousand taels of silver.

This huge amount was enough to shock the militiamen present and the surrounding audience to their jaws.

One tael of silver is enough for one person to eat and drink for a whole year, which is equivalent to blowing out one's thousand years of food all at once.

Under this world, Mr. Zhang is kind. In order for you to keep your homeland, he is willing to sponsor such a precious thing for you to use. It is really a blessing for you to meet such a kind person like Mr. Zhang.

The militiaman was still holding the spiritual tool, maintaining a posture, and could not move without orders. He was still a little tired at first, and there were inevitably some complaints in his heart.

However, everyone was moved by what the teacher said.

Yes, Mr. Zhang is for everyone to keep the crops in his field, and for everyone to protect their parents, wives and children.

Mr. Zhang even took out such a precious magic weapon of the fairy family,

I'm really worried about everyone's safety.

For Mr. Zhang's deep affection, how can I live up to it? What's the point of being tired?

If it wasn't for you, why would Mr. Zhang need to take the Black Water Army and run so far to find the demon army? All this is not to prevent the demon army from coming here.

You have to know that Mr. Zhang's whole family is an immortal master, even the big yellow dog raised by them is an immortal dog. Immortal masters can fly. When a monster comes, Mr. Zhang can pack up his bed and fly away.

The more the teacher said, the smoother his mouth became, and he had already moved all the tenants to tears.

Someone advised Mr. Zhang to leave with gold and silver treasures before, and come back after the demon army has left. Guess what Mr. Zhang said?

Seeing that all the onlookers looked over, and the militiamen with spiritual tools pricked up their ears to listen, the corners of the teacher's mouth twitched slightly in satisfaction.

Mr. Zhang said, of course I can leave, but what about the more than 2 million people in Heishui County?

Once the army of demons came, they would definitely destroy the crops they worked so hard to plant, eat their flesh and blood, and suck their bone marrow dry.

For the more than 2 million people in Heishui County, I can't leave even if I die in battle.

If Zhang He heard these words here, he would be so embarrassed that he would pull out a city.

But many of the tenants present were so moved that they wept loudly and vowed to destroy all the monsters, and they must not disappoint Mr. Zhang's painstaking efforts.

Apart from farming, the tenants of the Great Zhou Dynasty seldom come into contact with other things. Even the actors have never seen the opera. Their thinking is relatively simple and they are easy to be influenced.

Seeing that the results of ideological work were not bad, the teacher struck while the iron was hot and pointed to a stone wall 20 feet away in front of him.

From now on, everyone, come one by one, and use the spiritual tools in your hands to shoot at this stone wall.

The effective range of this spiritual tool is 20 feet, about 60 meters, which is about the same as the attack distance of a monk in the late stage of Qi training.

The first militiaman walked out of the team, holding the spiritual tool tightly with both hands. Although he had been holding it for several days, he was still very nervous in his heart. The blow out this time would be his meal money for a thousand years.

According to the main points taught in the lesson, put the spirit tool flat in front of you, aiming at the stone wall in front of you.

boom!

A ball of fire shot out from the spiritual tool, and hit the opposite stone wall with a bang, and the flames rose up all at once.

After a while, the flames were extinguished, and everyone saw that a large area of ​​the original stone wall had melted, forming a deep pit.

This fairy baby is really powerful, worthy of a thousand years of food money.

If anyone is bombarded like this, even his bones will be turned into ashes.

With the first one, when the second one stepped forward to operate the spiritual tool bombardment, he was no longer so nervous, and his heart was faintly excited.
