Chapter 467: For Home and Country (Combined Chapter)

Main General's Tent.

Sun Gan sat in the main seat, smiling, and gestured for Ning Zhuo to sit on his left.

He leaned toward Ning Zhuo: "Military Advisor Ning is truly a young talent, a man of great appearance!"

Ning Zhuo smiled, his upper body straight, bowing slightly: "General Sun flatters me. Did you summon me this time to ask me to divine whether returning to the city is safe?"

Sun Gan's pupils shrank slightly, no longer leaning toward Ning Zhuo, but sitting upright against the back of the chair, with a non-committal smile on his face: "Could it be that Military Advisor Ning came here this time having already divined it, calculating that my army is going to return to the city?"

Ning Zhuo shook his head slightly: "I am actually not good at divination. It's just that when certain crises come, I feel depressed and have a premonition. Only at such moments can I divine a relatively correct result."

"As for our army returning to the city, this doesn't need to be calculated at all."

But Sun Gan also lost all face as a main general in this battle. Xu Xu Dali did not obey him, Shuang Jing would not give him a good look, and as for Mu Lan, she came from the Upper General's Mansion and ignored him.

The correct version is on 6/9*shu. ba! 【6*9*s*h*u-b-】

Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "Actually, even without powerful enemies like Long Ye, it's the same."

"The Southern Bean Country needs a weak Two-Pillar Country."

"Our side is the rear army, and we are going to gather with the main force. But not long ago, on the way to march, our army suffered an ambush and suffered heavy losses."

"After returning to Canglin Immortal City, just wait to be held accountable!"

"This Nascent Soul great cultivator's Earth Path technique is truly too powerful."

He briefly told the story of this trip, and also mentioned Shuang Jing's banquet.

The quarrel between Xu Xu Dali and Sun Gan was not stopped.

"Compared to us participating in the war ourselves, I thought of a relatively safe way that can also make money."

As for the Fire Cloud Camp, they marched at high altitude and used key means to defeat Long Ye, so others would not point fingers at them.

If the Golden Halberd Army suffered some losses, it would be fine.

"But besides these military supplies? We can sell more things. Thousand Peaks Forest is extremely in need of these military preparations. Isn't it?"

Sun Sun Lingtong wiped the tip of his nose: "Hmph, say whatever you want."

Ning Zhuo told Sun Sun Lingtong about how he saved his life through the Directional Escape Talisman.

It was a prison cart.

Sun Sun Lingtong took a deep breath, and an excited flush appeared on his face: "Exciting, too exciting."

Xu Xu Dali stepped forward, passed Shuang Jing, pushed Shuang Jing who was blocking the way, walked to Sun Gan, glared at him across the table, and roared: "Hurry up and bring up the pension, otherwise you won't have a good time today!!"

Ning Zhuo gave a wry smile: "Sun Gan and Xu Xu Dali are arguing."

"What Military Advisor Ning said is extremely reasonable! Our army has fought against the Shi Zhong Old Monster and knows very well that this cultivator looks honest on the outside but is actually very cunning and treacherous. In the previous great battle, the Shi Zhong Old Monster contributed the least, but his merit was the greatest!"

"Compared to the gains, we only lost 30% of the Western Pure Land."

"Especially this time, the Three Generals Camp made a contribution by capturing Ma Ma Feitui alive, which is a great merit."

Sun Sun Lingtong's expression changed: "What?"

Ning Zhuo returned to the carriage he was in before.

Shuang Jing couldn't wait to respond immediately, while Mu Lan was busy comforting the whole army.

Sun Sun Lingtong nodded repeatedly, agreeing: "Don't forget, Xiaozhuo. Thousand Peaks Forest has major awards, and the Two-Pillar Country here also has rewards!"

Ning Zhuo smiled and said a few words to excuse Zhang Hei.

A pool of Earth Milk Pure Spirit magic power, three Sage Light Universal Illumination Towers, hundreds of White Feather Light Dust horses, as well as Jade Armor, Startling Light Spears, Moon Phase Shields, and many other military supplies.

Sun Gan patted the table: "Shut up, you brute."

"So, the hard work of the previous battle was worth it." Ning Zhuo sighed.

The four of them were relaxed and harmonious, and when they talked about the rewards, they were all looking forward to them.

"Such a life is truly too beautiful!"

"There is one thing I didn't tell you before, I almost lost my life in this ambush battle."

Ning Zhuo, who wrote a prophecy poem and won the attention of many main generals, and whose status soared, also followed behind the three generals and brushed a wave of reputation.

Ning Zhuo immediately understood: "General Liu is referring to military expenses?"

Liu Er sighed: "Military Advisor is right, the three of us also felt that way just now. But there is a difficulty right now!"

"Thousand Peaks Forest cannot fall, and the Two-Pillar Country cannot stop."

Just as he was about to continue speaking, the tent curtain was lifted again.

If it were a normal day, Sun Gan would not be too worried about these idle gossips.

Ning Zhuo observed his words and expressions, and seeing Sun Gan's solemn expression, he guessed that the Golden Halberd Army probably did not have a powerful means to restrain the Earth Path technique.

The corners of Ning Zhuo's mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, then he forcibly smoothed them out: "Boss, the Shi Zhong Old Monster is good at Earth Path techniques and keeps stealing military supplies, isn't that normal?"

"General Shuang." Ning Zhuo bowed and greeted.

Ning Zhuo restrained his intoxicated look: "Boss, we must be cautious."

The army walked around the city, and most of the cultivators went out of the city to camp.

"But our previous military expenses were already stretched."

A burly Nascent Soul body cultivator broke in from the outside, it was Xu Xu Dali.

Ning Zhuo continued: "Thousand Peaks Forest's side is unpredictable."

Sun Sun Lingtong was aroused by curiosity and asked immediately.

The pride on Sun Sun Lingtong's face finally subsided.

Ning Zhuo shook his head and emphasized again: "No, no, no, we are enduring humiliation for the sake of home and country."

Liu Er's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that Shuang Jing was likely to recruit Ning Zhuo, and the smile on his face became more enthusiastic.

"We can also sell the stolen military equipment to Thousand Peaks Forest."

"He escapes underground, as if entering an uninhabited land!"

"Doesn't our army need training? Having only the One-Word Long Snake Array and the Triangle Arrow Array is far from enough. At least there must be a defensive battle array, right?"

"How do you say?" Ning Zhuo asked.

Sun Gan, who entered the city later, rode a horse and waved all the way, looking like a victorious return.

Sun Gan led the rear army and returned to Canglin Immortal City again.

Ning Zhuo took a deep breath: "This is war wealth, this feeling is truly wonderful."

A few days later.

Ma Ma Feitui was escorted in a prison cart.

"So, what are we still staying here for? Waiting for those bastards in Thousand Peaks Forest to turn back and attack?"

He had just finished counting.

In this case, if unfavorable discussions about him spread in the army, they would inevitably be tightly grasped by the avengers and used as favorable evidence to attack Sun Gan.

Ning Zhuo was about to speak when the tent curtain was lifted and Shuang Jing walked in directly.

Shuang Jing shrugged: "Our army has been completely crippled, what are we preparing? I just want to return to Canglin Immortal City as soon as possible and ask for help from the King's Capital!"

"Result!" Xu Xu Dali raised the jade slip in his hand, "And you gave us so little pension? Do you know that many people donated their lives for the country not long ago, but you are stingy and thin-skinned, what kind of stinginess and thinness is this!"

Xu Xu Dali was injured and in poor condition.

"Let's stir up the war here and turn the world upside down!"

Sun Gan and Xu Xu Dali immediately fell into a quarrel.

Ning Zhuo also waved his hand, interrupting Liu Er's subsequent thanks: "I met General Liu, General Generals Generals Guan, and General Zhang, and we were very compatible. Plus, I have family feuds with the Six Caves Sect, so helping with all my might is my original intention."

"On the other hand, doesn't the Two-Pillar Country have needs?"

"Our army will definitely be rewarded, and this reward can be used as military expenses."

The first to enter the city was not the Golden Halberd Army, nor the Fire Cloud Camp.

Sun Sun Lingtong laughed: "I wouldn't mind having such a war a dozen more times."

"The longer this great war lasts, the better!"

Although there is no evidence, such a perception will greatly damage Sun Gan's reputation and prestige.

And this time, other armies also formed arrays one after another, no longer rushing as fast as before.

Speaking of this, Ning Zhuo couldn't help but show a strange look. The biggest gain was *Gao Sheng's Last Will*, the value of which was immeasurable! "Getting rich! We got rich in one battle!" Sun Sun Lingtong danced in the mechanical wandering dragon.

Sun Gan took a deep breath and said slowly: "What you said is reasonable."

Ning Zhuo returned the salute.

Liu Er sighed: "Exactly! We have many casualties and need to take out a large sum of money for pensions to stabilize the army's heart."

Zhang Hei grinned and patted Ning Zhuo's shoulder hard, making Ning Zhuo wince in pain.

Sun Gan was entangled and was arguing with the red-faced Xu Xu Dali, so he couldn't take care of Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo also smiled. At this moment, he felt that he had gotten rid of poverty and pain.

Communicating with Shuang Jing definitely has no harm.

Ning Zhuo naturally would not hide it from Sun Sun Lingtong: "I was also reminded by Long Ye's transaction request before I left."

Sun Sun Lingtong was puzzled: "It is reasonable that Thousand Peaks Forest has no country support and is short of military equipment."

"I'm just being close to our military advisor!"

He is now very worried that those people in the King's Capital will blame him because their children sacrificed, and come to trouble him.

"The total strength has been lost by more than half, even if we rush to gather with the main force, it has lost its original meaning."

The Three Generals Camp marched in a One-Word Long Snake Array again.

"This bit of payment is just a drop in the bucket compared to the harvest!"

Ning Zhuo's impression of Shuang Jing is not bad: "This high-door child, although arrogant, has a pattern. In the previous battle, he took the initiative to order the continuous replenishment of the armory to delay the 'Shi Zhong Old Monster', this strategy is excellent!"

Sun Sun Lingtong told the details.

This would never have happened before this battle.

Ning Zhuo's words hit his heart exactly.

"Moreover, most armies suffered heavy losses, only Sun's Golden Halberd Army did not lose a single person. It doesn't sound good to say this out."

"Our army suffered heavy losses, if we continue to move forward and encounter an ambush again, what should we do?"

Sun Gan snorted coldly: "My Golden Halberd Army is here, what is there to fear!"

"Military Advisor, you're back so soon?" The three generals stood up, Liu Er full of spring breeze, took the initiative to welcome him.

Liu Er waved his hand repeatedly: "Military Advisor, this money is worth spending, too worth it! If it weren't for the Military Advisor's calculation, our situation at this moment would inevitably be more miserable than the Savage Demon Camp."

"Fighting on the battlefield is indeed dangerous!" Sun Sun Lingtong said in a deep voice.

But now there is a big trouble—the White Jade Camp suffered heavy losses, leaving only more than a hundred people. Too many high-door and noble children were lost in this ambush battle.

"Not only that, I will immediately send a message to my Ning family to explain the latest situation, hoping that the family ancestor will lift the restrictions and allow me to use more treasure materials, so that I can subsidize the Three Generals Camp."

"Will our good luck continue forever? This is almost impossible."

So, the result was naturally Sun Gan's victory.

"So, the best digestion method is to sell to Thousand Peaks Forest."

Apparently, Shuang Jing also realized the precision of the prophecy poem. This heavy loss made him understand the four words "war is dangerous," so he lowered his status to make friends and tried to use every factor to win.

Ning Zhuo knew the opportunity, stood up, and bowed to Sun Gan to leave.

"We can't use these military supplies we snatched, and it's difficult to send them back to the family or the Ten Thousand Medicines Gate."

Among them, there are more than 80 Foundation Establishment-level White Feather Light Dust horses and more than 380 Qi Refining-level ones, totaling more than 460. The market price is 11.32 million medium-grade spirit stones.

"Fun, really fun!"

Sun Gan frowned and stared at Shuang Jing: "General Shuang, you have barged into my camp without reporting; what is the reason for this? At this hour, you should be inspecting your own camp and comforting your wounded and defeated soldiers."

Sun Sun Lingtong understood immediately and slapped his palm: "Wonderful, two-pillar country army is not short of military equipment, we will work hard to create this demand."

As the biggest victim, Shuang Jing had a deep impression of the Shi Zhong Old Monster. When speaking at this time, he subconsciously gritted his teeth, his face full of hatred and anger.

Ning Zhuo returned to the Three Generals Camp, and the three generals were discussing affairs.

Liu Er grabbed Ning Zhuo's arm and brought him to sit down: "We were just discussing future plans. Military Advisor has outstanding strategies, and his achievements are obvious to all, please teach me."

And as the three generals who captured Ma Ma Feitui alive, they followed Sun Gan closely.

"Xiaozhuo, it's right that you and I traveled the world together."

Xu Xu Dali's face surged with blood: "Sun Gan, you villain! You failed to lead the army this time, and you want to push the blame on me. I don't believe the civil and military officials in the King's Capital will let you turn black and white and avoid the heavy!"

Sun Gan, as the leader, must take responsibility.

"Such a Nascent Soul cultivator might be hiding under our noses right now, quietly listening to the conversation between me and General Sun."

On the right is Heavy-Duty Blood Ape · Fang Yuan Yuan Dasheng, on the left is Buddha Doctor · Meng Meng Meng Yaoyin, still double protection.

Sun Gan didn't want to stay too long, so he ordered the camp to return to the city early the next morning.

Ning Zhuo smiled: "That's right. Before, I set up an array to divine, and it also cost a lot of military expenses."

Sun Gan tapped the armrest of the seat with his finger and pondered without speaking.

Zhang Hei retracted his reddened palm and called out in pain: "Big Brother, you hit harder than me."

Shuang Jing shook his head, gave a wry smile to Ning Zhuo, and then gestured to the tent curtain.

"I have watched the battle video at least three times. The Shi Zhong Old Monster is inconsistent with the existing intelligence. This cultivator is deep in the city, flexible in mind, and has harvested the most spoils of war. He is the biggest winner of this battle."

Now the whole army has not lost a single person, but other armies have suffered heavy losses. If others know about this, they may think that Sun Gan prioritized self-preservation and chose to sacrifice friendly forces to exchange for his own battle results.

In the mechanical wandering dragon, Sun Sun Lingtong transmitted his divine sense, reporting to Ning Zhuo happily: "Xiaozhuo, we have gained a lot this time!"

Liu Er bowed and apologized to Ning Zhuo on behalf of Zhang Hei.

The total market price of the above is 30.54 million medium-grade spirit stones.

Ning Zhuo: "Walking by the river often, how can you not get your shoes wet? Boss, my thoughts are different from yours. It's better to have fewer such experiences and be more stable."

"For the sake of the country, we must give full play to our abilities, relieve the worries of the monarch, and seek welfare for the people of our Southern Bean Country."

Liu Er was moved. Generals Generals Guan Hong looked at Ning Zhuo more pleasingly.

Xu Xu Dali held the jade slip, with anger on his face, and questioned Sun Gan: "Sun Gan! What are you doing? Our army suffered heavy casualties and bore the greatest offensive, winning the most precious reaction time for you."

"The Red Flower Camp and the Three Generals Camp have many reductions. Only the Fire Cloud Camp and the Golden Halberd Army did not lose a single person."

Liu Er immediately took action, patted Zhang Hei's palm heavily, his expression changed, and he scolded on the spot: "Third Brother, how can you be so rude to the Military Advisor!"

"Why does the Two-Pillar Country military also lack military equipment? It shouldn't be."

Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "I originally thought that our army would return to Canglin Immortal City. This visit to Sun Gan also basically confirmed this guess."

"Shut up!" Sun Gan was furious, stood up from his seat, and shouted at Xu Xu Dali, "General Xu, you'd better be clear, I am the main general of the rear army now. And you are a defeated general, what qualifications do you have to shout in front of me?"

The city people cheered when they saw this.

"At this point, the Fire Cloud Camp has been exposed and no longer has the role of a surprise force. And Long Ye survived, and the Ginseng Dragon King is stronger in vitality, so treating Long Ye is naturally easy."

Ning Zhuo agreed immediately, expressing that he was flattered.

Under the surging crowd, Sun Gan might be impeached to lose the position of main general and be replaced by others!

Shuang Jing and Ning Zhuo walked out of the tent one after another. The former immediately invited Ning Zhuo to have a banquet when he returned to Canglin Immortal City, hoping that Ning Zhuo would appreciate the light.

Military armories like Jade Armor and Startling Light Spears were robbed seven times later, with a total estimated price of about 3.5 million medium-grade spirit stones.

Sun Gan narrowed his eyes, and his expression sank a little.

In the end, Xu Xu Dali and Sun Gan flew into the clouds and fought a battle. Sun Gan, as the commander of the Imperial Guard, had outstanding strength and well-equipped equipment, and originally occupied the advantage.

"I can also contribute to the military expenses."

"What I am more worried about is the Shi Zhong Old Monster!"

"The Savage Demon Camp only has the main general and personal guards left, and the White Jade Camp only has more than a hundred people left, which is miserable."

"This arrangement is naturally more beneficial than harmful to our army."

Ning Zhuo coughed twice: "Boss, as citizens of Southern Bean Country, we received a secret commission from the royal family member Zhu Zhu Zhu Xuanji before going abroad."

Shuang Jing is a Nascent Soul cultivator, Ning Zhuo is only Foundation Establishment, but the former's attitude is quite kind and gentle.

Ning Zhuo stayed in the city and went directly to the Golden Profit Master to purchase many treasure materials, intending to repair the Ten Thousand Mile Wandering Dragon independently.

The rewards of the Two-Pillar Country were very fast.

The day after entering the city, an envoy came with an imperial edict.

The rewards specifically requested by Ning Zhuo also followed!
