Chapter 89: Nameless Acquisition

  It was already high noon, but in this extremely northern and desolate land, the temperature was always extremely low all year round. Even if the sun was as big as a jade plate, Jiang Hao couldn't feel much warmth, only some coolness.

  In the midst of the mountain valley, there was an exceptionally flat and protruding giant rock, with an area of several hundred square meters. On it were randomly placed some square tables, on which, apart from some leftover cold food, were those dice and gambling tools.

  Jiang Hao followed Lei Xiang and walked directly to this place. Under the giant stone, there were about a hundred people standing there, including Chen Hao and others. These should be those war masters. They could at least be considered as a small team leader in the military department. Compared with those soldiers, the fierce aura and killing intent on their bodies were much thicker. So many people gathered together, looking at each other with furrowed brows and occasionally pushing and shoving.

  Jiang Hao glanced up at the giant stone, took a look at the remaining food on the table, and was shocked in his heart. Those steamed buns had quite a few black spots on them, as if they had grown mold, and apart from these steamed buns, there seemed to be nothing else. He didn't expect that these soldiers usually ate such things.

  When they saw Jiang Hao arrive, the warriors finally calmed down completely. Looking at Jiang Hao's eyes, they all had a hint of frenzy. Most of them had seen Jiang Hao defeat Lei Xiang and Tu Lei Qian, and from Chen Huan's mouth, they knew that this new military commander was also a Dan master with exceptionally strong spiritual power.

  For a military department, having Dan Shi join is absolutely enviable. Here, the role of Dan Shi can be equivalent to hundreds of elite troops. However, there are two reasons why this is not possible: first, the number of Dan Shi is extremely small; second, most Dan Shi are proud and arrogant people who would not stoop to refining elixirs for some rough and unrefined martial artists. Therefore, only a very small part of the military department has Dan Shi.

  In the eight legions of the Fia Empire, the Golden Eagle Legion undoubtedly has the best resources in the empire, and this naturally includes Dan medicine. It is said that there is even a person who has entered the Dan stage in the Golden Eagle Legion, while the other legions basically do not have any, and can only occasionally receive some low-level Dan medicine distributed by the empire.

  Jiang Hao's performance over the past two days has almost made these soldiers and military personnel forget their unhappiness about Ouyang Sheng's departure, and they even feel a kind of pleasure like a long-awaited rain, but this seems to be a morbid pleasure.

  As soon as Jiang Hao stepped onto the giant rock, those martial artists all looked up at him with eyes that surprisingly had flames bursting out of them.

  Jiang Hao glanced down and felt a numbness in his heart, being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes was absolutely not a pleasant thing, the feeling was like a young wife being stripped naked and examined by a group of men.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Jiang Hao, your new army commander. I think you all know some things about me. I'm sure Deputy Commander Lei Xiang and Chen Huan have told you something about what I've proposed, but here I'll say it again, hoping everyone will listen clearly."

  The people below did not speak, but just looked at Jiang Hao.

  "Now that you all acknowledge me as your commander, from now on we are brothers. I won't object to you drinking and gambling, but private fights are not allowed; otherwise, military law will be enforced."

  "As for cultivation, I won't force you, but I can guarantee that as long as any one of you makes progress in your cultivation, I will definitely reward you. Of course, ordinary soldiers are treated equally."

  "I don't care how Ou Yang treats you in daily life, but my most basic requirement for you is to keep your own lives safe. I appreciate your bravery, but my army doesn't need reckless heroes."

  Jiang Hao paused for a moment before continuing, "Everyone must know about the Golden Eagle Military Unit. What makes them the first military unit? Are you guys inferior to them just because you're human?"

  "Spare me, they're not even better than us in terms of resources. If we really compare, it's still unclear who'll win or lose." The crowd erupted into a chorus of roars, clearly dissatisfied with the Golden Eagle Army.

  "I know you're all dissatisfied, I'm also dissatisfied. So we must work even harder to cultivate ourselves. As for you, I will hold nothing back. Starting tomorrow, I'll give you extra meals. If you don't eat enough, how can you have the energy to cultivate?"

  At this time, a weak voice came, "General Jiang Huo, our military department has no surplus grain, and the military salary has not been issued yet. If we add meals, it may be a bit difficult." He was a short and thin man, with a shovel in his hand, his clothes were covered with oil stains and stove ash, but his eyes were bright and seemed to have some longing gaze at Jiang Huo.

  Jiang Hao furrowed his brow and looked at Lei Xiang.

  "Commander, this is our army's chef, who is also a war master himself. However, he has no interest in fighting and instead has a unique passion for cooking. If not for the lack of ingredients, he wouldn't have used moldy flour to make buns for us to eat." Lei Xiang hastily said.

  Jiang Hao nodded, having already made up his mind. With a wave of his right hand, a pale blue card appeared in his hand. This was the one he had exchanged for with Lei Lang's beast core at the Treasure Pavilion. Of course, aside from that, there were also several tens of thousands of gold coins he had obtained from that Water Attribute warrior who had ambushed him. Adding them all up, he had around a million or so.

  Jiang Hao flicked his hand and the card was already in Lei Xiang's hand.

  "What's this?" Lei Xiang looked at the card in his hand and asked in confusion.

  "There's almost a million gold coins in here, you can go to any exchange house in the empire to cash it out, it should be universally accepted across the continent. You can go find my second brother or big brother, either one is fine, ask them to help get more food back, remember to get good stuff, and throw away all those moldy things." Jiang Hao said.

  "One million gold coins?"

  Lei Xiang's face showed a hint of shock. To think that the average monthly expenses of an ordinary family of three wouldn't exceed a few gold coins, and in a year, it wouldn't even reach one hundred gold coins. One million gold coins was already a staggering sum for Lei Xiang and his family. "All this is used to buy food?"

  Jiang Hao nodded and said, "That's right, since we're all brothers, I naturally want you to eat well first. This little money doesn't count for much, in the future we'll have even more resources." After finishing speaking, Jiang Hao looked at Lei Xiang with a profound gaze.

  About a hundred warriors on the scene suddenly boiled over when they heard this, and it's said that they couldn't even remember how long it had been since they'd last eaten meat. The tapeworms in their bellies were almost dying of starvation. When Jiang Heng took out 1 million to buy them food, these men who normally didn't shed a tear even when bleeding from wounds couldn't help but feel gratitude and excitement.

  Chen Hao took a step forward, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, "Commander, I'd like to thank you on behalf of my brothers. In the Huantian Military Department, including myself, there are 122 people in total, all of whom are here. Among them, there are 30 five-star warriors or above, and 100 squad leaders, each leading around 500 soldiers."

  From Chen Huan's eyes, Jiang Hao saw sincerity, and his heart was also delighted. The war book said it well, "Only the selfless dedication will get more, treat people with sincerity, and their hearts must be kind."

  Jiang Hao waved his hand and said, "Brother Chen Hao, in terms of seniority, you are all older than me, so I can only be considered a junior. So from now on, let's treat each other as equals, what do you think?"

  Chen Hao's face was flushed with anger, and he secretly sighed in his heart, "Ouyang Sheng Jun, I have followed you through many battles for years, and we have been through life and death together. I have already repaid your kindness. This military commander is not old, but he has always been very good to us. I, Chen Hao, cannot be a petty person anymore."

  Thinking of this, Chen Hao looked at Lei Xiang and responded with a heavy tone.

  Jiang Hao smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I'll announce something. I'm going to form an elite squad, and its members will be all of you strong warriors. This team will be directly led by Vice Commander Lei Xiang. As for the name, I haven't thought of one yet, so let's just call it 'Nameless' for now. Also, spread the word: no matter who it is, as long as they break through to the Warrior Sage level, they can join this elite squad."

  Jiang Hao paused for a moment, then continued, "This small team will receive the most direct resource supply, but at the same time, it also needs to bear considerable responsibility. Of course, Vice Commander Lei Xiang will conduct regular assessments of you all. Those who are not qualified will be directly kicked out of the Nameless Team. Does anyone have any opinions?"

  As soon as Jiang Hao's words fell, the people below were all stunned, and for a while, they lost their voices. Many people cast their eyes on Lei Xiang's body.

  "What are you looking at? Got an itch for something? If you've got a problem, spit it out, don't give me that wishy-washy nonsense!" Lei Xiang bellowed.

  "General, I don't know what responsibilities we need to bear?" a red-faced man shouted.

  Jiang Hao smiled and said, "Everyone can rest assured, it's mainly that sometimes special tasks need to be carried out, of course I will definitely go with you, and I certainly won't let you do anything that goes against heaven and reason."

  "Then we can still drink and gamble with dice?" The red-faced man continued.

  Jiang Hao nodded and said, "Of course, but you have to be mindful of moderation. There aren't many rules here."

  The crowd responded with thunderous applause, and their eyes also lit up with joy. For these hot-blooded men, without wine, even going to the battlefield would be unenthusiastic. Jiang Huan did not prohibit them from drinking, which made their last bit of resistance to this young commander also disperse.

  "If everyone has no other opinions, then this matter is settled. Each team leader will pass it down, Vice General Lei Xiang, the food issue is entrusted to you, let's disperse." Jiang Huan waved his hand and said, and in the next moment, his figure had disappeared from in front of everyone.

  Lei Xiang was just about to leave when he heard Jiang Huan's voice behind him, "Deputy General Lei Xiang, can you come to my tent tonight? We need to discuss how to deal with those titanium crystals."

  Lei Xiang was taken aback for a moment, let out a light laugh, glanced in the direction Jiang Hao had left, and nodded slightly.
