Astral Apostle

   Chapter 229 Changes

  Huyang, Cangshui Village, Hall.

  Tan Peng and other leaders gathered and were meeting with the imperial envoy.

   "...Tan Zhaizhu, these are the benefits of accepting the security, I wonder what you think?"

The    messenger cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

Tan Peng patted his bald head with a sarcastic tone: "The imperial court is still the same old way, giving some false titles and wanting to make people die. I'm not a fan of officials, and I hate those officials the most in my life. Don't think of me taking refuge in the court."

The messenger endured his anger and said: "One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. You and Chen Feng have become a force of water and fire. Isn't it a good thing to have the help of the imperial court? I don't know why Tanzhai master is so conflicted, a green forest overlord like Yanbei Tianwangzhai, some time ago. It is the right way to be recruited as well.”

   Tan Peng's face immediately sank when he heard the words, he slammed the armrest of the chair, spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and cursed:

"Fuck your grandma! I thought that Yanbei Tianwangzhai was a hero, but I didn't realize it was a bunch of eggless things. The court threw a few pieces of meat and bones, and they imitated the dogs. Eyes, immediately turn around and bite the green forest brothers, you dare to compare me with this group of rats?"

  In June, Yanbei Tianwangzhai was publicly recruited. The owner of the village, Lu Longchuan, and a group of important leaders went to Beijing to face the holy, and won the imperial decree, and then began to pacify the Yanbei and Taidong bandits for the imperial court.

This incident caused an uproar on the Green Forest Road, with some who scorned and despised, and some who admired and yearned for it. The reputation of Tianwangzhai became mixed for a while... In any case, since he joined the imperial court, the title of the Green Forest Overlord is no one. Call again.

  At that time, although the Huyang battle was fierce, it also received rumors. Tan Peng was one of the people who despised the actions of Tianwangzhai.

   At this time, a leader next to him couldn't sit still, twisted his body, coughed and said:

   "Tianwangzhai was recruited, perhaps to find a way out for the brothers in the village, but not necessarily for fame and fortune... Besides, that Chen Fengyong won the third army, we also need help."

   Mentioned Chen Feng, and many of the leaders present showed fear.

   They fought with Chen Feng for more than a month. They thought they could take advantage of the situation, but they were repelled again and again.

   Every time they remembered the scene of Chen Feng in the battlefield, the leaders would have lingering fears.

   Tan Peng heard the words and snorted coldly: "What kind of way out is Zhao An? Then what happened to Wan Chunyang, you haven't seen it?"

   Isn't that your fault!

  The corners of the mouths of many leaders twitched.

   To say that Wan Chunyang was also wronged, was stabbed in the back by his teammates, and was cut off by Chen Feng before he sacrificed the flag. Before his death, the one who hated the most was not Chen Feng, but you!

   But the winner is the king and the loser. Everyone, as the one who took advantage, will not speak for Wan Chunyang. It's just that this person is too stupid, and he actually dares to trust his teammates. Maybe he thinks that the court has the bottom line and everything will be worry-free.

  The court messenger gritted his teeth and said, "I hope Tanzhai Master thinks twice..."

  Tan Peng interrupted him and said categorically: "The matter of recruiting security will never be mentioned again."

   A haze flashed in the eyes of the imperial envoy.

   This fellow is stunned now that he will not be recruited, and he does not dare to think about what he will do in the future!

  The expressions of the leaders changed, but they still held back and did not speak.

Seeing this, the imperial envoy had a plan in his mind, stood up calmly, and said: "Tan Zhai master has too deep a prejudice against the imperial court, since he is unwilling to recruit security, then I will not stay any longer. If Guizhai changes his mind, the imperial court is still willing to recruit security. "

After   , he said goodbye and was led away by the minions.

   After the outsiders left, finally a leader couldn't help it and asked:

   "Zhaizhu, we will not be recruited, and we will lose both in a fight with Chen Feng in the future. Wouldn't the court take advantage of it?"

  Tan Peng hummed: "You don't have to work hard with Chen Feng for recruiting security? It's the same with the imperial court taking advantage of it."

"That's a bad statement. If my vitality is seriously damaged, the imperial court may send troops to kill us. If we are recruited, the imperial court will not deal with our own people... We can still follow the example of our predecessors and make a contribution. Dangdang."

   "Innocent! I have made up my mind, I will never try to curry favor with those officials, and I will never mention this matter again."

  Tan Peng waved his hand to interrupt, not wanting to argue.

   The leaders had to shut up and looked at each other with uncertain eyes.

  …

the other side.

After    Chen Feng's troops repelled Tan Peng, they withdrew to the stockade and began to rectify them intensively, recruiting soldiers and replenishing their troops.

  Most of the soldiers did not mean to die rather than give in. Moreover, Chen Feng's martial and bravery overwhelmed the contemporary era. He was a well-known figure.

  Compared with the few months before the war, the troops under Chen Feng’s command increased rather than decreased. It can be said that wars are supported by wars.

   However, these soldiers need to be trained, and the original soldiers also need to rest. At the same time, the supplies need to be re-stocked and stored, so everyone is not in a hurry to start the war again and concentrate on recuperating.

   On this day, Zhou Jing and the leaders stood on the cliff, overlooking the lake, and inspected the scene of the naval drill.

   But seeing thousands of sails racing, teams of warships are constantly changing according to their flags, which is quite organized.

"good."

   Zhou Jing nodded secretly, analyzing and calculating in his heart.

   At present, the soldiers under his command are not good soldiers and strong generals, but the continuous victories have led to the momentum of the rainbow.

   He has captured a lot of warships of officers and soldiers in the past few months. All kinds of water warfare weapons are available. The army is also dominated by sailors. It is quite outstanding in the field of water warfare.

   However, due to the single type of arms, the level of his troops in land combat is relatively average, and there are basically no cavalry. It is not easy to play outside the boundary of Huyang, where the water network is dense.

   The current strength of the army, it is acceptable to stick to Huyang, and it is not suitable to fight in other places.

   Zhou Jing is also aware of this problem, and he can only solve it slowly by practicing, not in a hurry.

   In his plan, after dominating Huyang, he would accumulate grain and build high walls. After he had done enough preparations, he would find someone to rise from the ground up, so he had time to train soldiers and leaders.

   is just right, through the time of development, let the influence caused by yourself slowly penetrate and ferment, and at the same time, you can develop steadily.

   In addition, those detainees of various factions have already written their cheats and handed them over.

   After Zhou Jing confirmed the authenticity, he fulfilled the agreement and let them leave in disgrace.

The secrets of the major sects are now in his hands, not only to provide them to his soldiers, but also to send people to teach nearby villagers, and to spread them unscrupulously... These futures may be their own sources of soldiers, martial arts training is not an overnight thing, just sow and cultivate first .

   Those who are most interested in martial arts secrets are naturally scattered people from all walks of life, regardless of Zhou Jing's reputation for evil ways, flocking to come to study.

   Zhou Jing refused to come, and chose an island in Yueshan Lake for people from all corners of the world to stay. For a time, it became a martial arts holy place spread by word of mouth in all corners of the world.

   Although people with mediocre aptitudes accounted for the majority, but after brainstorming, these people actually showed signs of introducing new martial arts of various schools.

  The major sects watched the leak of the secret skills, and they were heartbroken, but there was nothing they could do. In the mind that everyone could take advantage of themselves and could not fall behind others, they also sent people to learn martial arts from other sects.

  The view of the door was abruptly broken, and the entire river and lake were rolled up, and there were signs of a prosperous martial arts for a while.

In addition, during the shuttle, Zhou Jing has used three copies of [Auxiliary Function Upgrades] to upgrade [Map Radar], [Follower Function], [Character Level System], which not only meet his own needs, but also test each auxiliary function. Feature upgrade route differences.

  [Map Radar] has always been quite useful. After the upgrade, the detection range has been greatly increased, and the function has been enhanced. It not only detects familiar and unfamiliar targets, but also marks the degree of threat.

   And according to the introduction, items with special characteristics may also be displayed on the radar, but Zhou Jing has not encountered them yet, so I don't know what "speciality" means.

The upgrade route of [Map Radar] is obviously to improve the detection distance and the richness of target identification information. Zhou Jing couldn't help but wonder, if he upgraded several times, would he be able to directly distinguish aboriginals and foreign explorers one day... Not impossible , because the explorers are contaminated with astral energy when they shuttle, perhaps this is a factor that can be detected by the panel.

   The [Follower Function] was upgraded, and the effect was as expected. The second follower slot was opened, and the quality of the follower template was improved.

   The [Character Level System] upgrade direction is simple and direct, from the upper limit of level 10 to level 18, and the additional attribute range obtained by each level has changed from 0~2 points to 1~3 points. If the character is good, the extra bonus of the full level reaches 40+, which is enough to make a single attribute cross the first level, and the bonus is greatly improved.

   After this period of battle, Chen Feng's character level has already reached the limit, and now there is more room for further upgrades.

   is just the extra attribute points obtained from the previous upgrade, and will not be blessed by the auxiliary function upgrade, so there is no additional attribute for compensation. However, it can be compensated. When Chen Feng is transformed into an Eternal Apostle and released again, the auxiliary function can be reset.

  Because there has been a war for the past six months, Zhou Jing shuttles to Chen Feng every time, and Bill can only stock up.

He checked the log and found that Bill was doing well. He followed the emperor to the capital and had a meal in the Sitian prison. Because of his supernatural powers and detached status, he has been providing medicinal pills for the emperor and various dignitaries, so his position is stable, and he is still in a good position. Favored letter.

   "The battle in Huyang is still not going away. I'll go to Bill's body when I have time in the future... But there's nothing serious about him that I need to take care of myself, so it's okay if I can't go to him."

   Zhou Jing secretly said.

   Just when his mind drifted away, a leader who was in charge of inquiring about news suddenly ran over and hurriedly reported:

   "Zhaizhu, I have something urgent to report!"

   Zhou Jing regained his senses and turned to look at him: "What's the matter?"

   The leader took a deep breath and said:

   "Tan Peng is dead!"

"what?"

   This news was too sudden, not only Zhou Jing, but the rest of the leaders were also startled.

   "What's going on, tell me in detail!"

   Guo Haishen urged.

   The leader explained: "I found out the news not long ago that Tan Peng was poisoned and killed, and the second leader of the village had to take his place and vowed to avenge their village master."

   Fang Zhen said in surprise: "Strange, this Tan Peng is staying in his own base camp, how could he be succeeded by someone, who poisoned him?"

   Hearing this, the leader had a weird expression and hesitantly said:

   "That group of people released rumors, claiming that our village owner is in the same boat as them. We must have done this kind of thing. We were afraid of their power, so we bought people and poisoned Tan Peng. It has spread on the road..."

   "What did I do?" Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, and then he was amused: "Because I am an enemy, any dirty water can be splashed on me, and you can frame me casually, right?"

  Fang Zhen said categorically: "My second brother would not do such a thing. It must have been due to civil turmoil in Tan Peng Village, and power was seized, but I don't know why... The second master who took over the position is the most suspicious."

  Guo Haishen sighed a little: "It's a pity that Tan Peng has just grown up, and before the chair is hot, he was assassinated."

  Du Ying's eyes brightened, and he immediately said:

   "This is a strange matter, the enemy's heart is floating, and it is possible to divide and win over. Moreover, the enemy's leader is newly mourned, and there will be chaos inside. This is a God-given opportunity, and the time does not wait for me!"

   Zhou Jing squinted his eyes and said decisively: "Come on Qi Erlang, follow me on the expedition!"

   He had planned to exercise the army until around October, and then fight with Tan Peng, but he didn't expect the enemy to suddenly reveal his flaws, so he could only be embarrassed.

   Seize this opportunity to start, maybe you can get twice the result with half the effort, and make Huyang in one fell swoop.
