This speed t the requirents of the Ten Suns Cave Heaven for the Military Minister of Agriculture Officer.
But it was still slightly slow. If not for planting near the volcano, this speed would be greatly weakened, and the survival rate wouldn’t reach one hundred percent.
At this mont, Zhao Xing didn’t need to take action. First, harvest a batch of new seeds to expand production.
So Chen Shijie sent soone to pick the seeds and start replanting.
When the third batch was harvested and replanting began again.
Jiang Ming arrived at the Cloud Rain Ship. He drove a flying boat and brought a group of Zhenhai Army’s Minister of Agriculture Officers.
"Brother Chen, can my people help out too?"
Chen Shijie looked at the Minister of Agriculture Officers behind Jiang Ming and instantly understood Jiang Ming’s intentions.
He probably saw sothing, so he wanted to get involved.
"Commander Jiang." Chen Shijie looked at Jiang Ming’s hopeful eyes, "Your people can help, but they must follow my commands."
"Besides, if the Commandant wants deep collaboration, it’s best to write to Marquis Lan."
"We can’t decide on the later matters."
Chen Shijie spoke very frankly. Attacking Fire Dragon Pass wasn’t sothing Jiang Ming could join in just because he wanted to.
He was just a Commandant with only thirty thousand auxiliary troops, and they were naval forces.
Attacking Fire Dragon Pass wouldn’t be of much use.
Furthermore, the Divine Might Army didn’t lack collaborators, as Xia Jing already ca over the day before yesterday.
The Xuanjia Army was much stronger than the Zhenhai Army, wasn’t it?
It wasn’t the Zhenhai Army’s turn anyhow.
"Brother, you know what you’re doing. I’ve already inford General Lan about this. I believe there will be news soon." Jiang Ming said gratefully, "I just want to help out now."
"They’re all under your command."
"Alright." Chen Shijie nodded. Just helping to plant so Earth Fire Lotuses wouldn’t steal any credit.
The current demand for fire-resistant materials in the Military Realm was enormously high, and one Nine-Section Camp couldn’t handle it all.
Helping others was helping oneself.
.....
Zhao Xing woke up after sleeping for two and a half days. His Life Soul had rested, and he woke up refreshed.
He found that he had reached the thirty-ninth rank of Gathering Essence.
"Only one more rank to break through to the Sixth Grade Heavenly Gang Realm."
"Since being conferred the title, my realm finally stabilized today." Zhao Xing thought privately.
Previously, after becoming a seventh-rank, his realm hadn’t moved.
Mainly because the speed of his upgrades was too fast, and his skill and Dao comprehension gradually balanced out.
Now that there was so improvent, it proved the foundation of the seventh-rank realm was solid.
He walked out of the room, through the corridor of the ship, and to the front deck.
Zhao Xing saw Chen Shijie discussing with a group of Minister of Agriculture Officers and Commanders.
When he ca over, Chen Shijie imdiately ended the discussion, "Awake?"
"Hmm, how’s the situation?"
He had been sleeping on the Cloud Rain Ship and glanced down. It seed many lotuses had already blood.
"There are already one hundred and twenty thousand Earth Fire Lotuses," Chen Shijie said, "I’ve already ordered a stop to replanting and to maintain this scale for now."
"One hundred and twenty thousand? That’s quick." Zhao Xing was surprised.
"The Divine Might Army alone has over a thousand Minister of Agriculture Officers. The Zhenhai Army and the Xuanjia Army also sent so people to help."
"One hundred and twenty thousand is still the result of my controlled planting. With a fifth-level fire vein, replanting third-tier Earth Fire Lotuses is not difficult."
"There are fewer fourth-tier ones, but there’s also ten thousand of them."
As long as the environntal conditions were sufficient, a thousand Military Minister of Agriculture Officers could easily produce one hundred thousand third-tier plants in a day.
The Divine Might Army’s thousand Minister of Agriculture Officers were no amateurs.
A portion of elites was drawn from Wen Shaoyang’s Division. When Xia Jing ca over, he also brought so elite Minister of Agriculture Officers from the Xuanjia Army.
The Zhenhai Army provided dozens of people, and additionally, talented Minister of Agriculture Officers like Han Bing were drawn from the supply city in the rear.
"Has Wang Ji arrived?" Zhao Xing asked.
"He has arrived. The setup of the Earth Fire Cultivation Array is already one-quarter complete." Chen Shijie pointed to a corner of the volcano.
"I don’t know the difficulty of planting fifth-order Earth Fire Lotuses, so I have set up arrays at the foot and the waist of the mountain."
"I didn’t send anyone to the top. I’ll wait for you to wake up to handle it."
"Wang Ji is now in charge of an array at the lower waist of the mountain."
Zhao Xing nodded. Old Chen was ticulous and thorough in his work.
He didn’t need to think about anything else upon waking up; he just needed to cast the spells.
No wonder he liked partnering with Chen Shijie.
Because Old Chen was highly efficient, a perfect adjutant!
"Then I’ll go cast the spells first."
"Wait." Chen Shijie called Zhao Xing again, "Don’t rush, there’s soone you need to et first."
"Who?"
"Xia Jing brought so people along. He said you must be present for this collaboration, so Liao Rulong and Pu Zhong ca along as well."
Zhao Xing revealed a hint of a smile.
Good brothers, loyal indeed!
No wonder back in Cloud City he liked partnering with Xia Jing. He knew the ropes!
Xia Jing wanted to collaborate with the Divine Might Army because he had the confidence, as the Xuanjia Army was inherently stronger than the Divine Might Army.
The Xuanjia Army had Minister of Agriculture Officers mastering high-order magic from the Self Sect, while the Divine Might Army had none.
Xia Jing, being a top-tier genius, started as a proper seventh-rank and was also a princely heir.
He was fully qualified to represent the Xuanjia Army for this operation at Fire Dragon Pass.
He specifically asked for Zhao Xing to be present because he wanted to include Zhao Xing in the high-level command structure.
Why?
Because in the Great Zhou’s distribution of collective military rits, the proportion for commanders was significant.
For example, once Fire Dragon Pass was captured, the greatest rit would go to Liao Rulong.
Because he was the commander of this army, whether he was just watching from Zhixiu City, the result would be the sa.
Of course, rights and duties were equivalent. If the siege failed and the losses were heavy, Liao Rulong’s rits would be heavily deducted.
