Speaking of Tie Potian, Yue Shanggu was also full of praises.
"He is not a wise man, he is a loyal man. Tie Potian went to Qishan Fortress without any utilitarian thoughts. He simply wanted to help us solve our worries."
Chu Ming's evaluation of Tie Potian was higher and more pertinent.
The most loyal leader among the subordinate sects of Tiangong is the Holy Sword Sect.
"The news of Tiangong's unification of the Shanhai Continent has spread to every corner. Warriors from all over the country were initially somewhat suspicious of coming to Qishan Fortress, but now the momentum has begun to become enthusiastic."
Although the level of warriors from various places is generally low, under the protection of the formation, they can still pose a threat to the demons.
And because of the situation of the Southern Sect, Chu Ming had new ideas, and he decided to adjust his original plan.
Originally, Tiangong planned to build two large fortresses, Qishan Fortress and Wolong Fortress.
In fact, the construction of Wolong Fortress was mainly due to Chu Ming's personal feelings, and it did not have the same strategic significance as Qishan Fortress.
The natural mountain barrier that separates the Central Territory from the Southern Territory is called "Nanshan", and the barrier between the Central Territory and the Northern Territory is called "Beishan".
Since it was certain that the demons would enter the Shanhai Continent from the Western Region, Chu Ming made a strategy of abandoning the Western Continent based on the actual situation.
Then Qishan Fortress will surely bear the brunt of the demon invasion.
"If the demon clan encounters a setback in Qishan Fortress, or is unable to attack for a long time, will they adjust the direction of their attack?"
Chu Ming's sudden question caused the hall to fall into silence. After all, none of them had ever really dealt with the demons, so it was difficult to make a judgment.
"If the demons suffer heavy losses in Qishan Fortress, I think they will adjust the direction of their attack."
It was Wanwan who answered Chu Ming first.
Seeing everyone's looks, she continued, "Although we have not fought against the demons, through the performance of Peng Ao and Yu Mao, we can basically determine the cunning and selfish characteristics of the demons."
"Therefore, when they cannot capture Qishan Fortress, they will inevitably readjust their attack direction."
After listening to Wanwan's analysis, everyone agreed.
"The demons are likely to have contempt for the Shanhai Continent in their initial attack, but if they really suffer a setback, bypassing the Qishan Fortress will inevitably become their option."
Shen Luoyan also believed that the demons would not "fight to the death" with Tiangong in Qishan Fortress.
"Due to the special terrain of the mainland, even if the demons want to adjust, there are only two directions, which is to capture the southern domain and enter the central domain from the Nanshan Mountains. The other route is to enter the central domain from the northern domain."
Chu Ming summarized everyone's thoughts and pointed out the demon clan's next actions.
"The defensive advantages of Nanshan and Beishan are even better than Qishan. There is no even flat terrain on its front."
Song Que pointed out the geographical advantages of the southern and northern mountains.
Qishan Mountain is considered an internal mountain range in the Central Region, and is far less dangerous than the Nanshan Mountain and the Beishan Mountain that separate the two regions.
As long as a million-strong fortress is built in these two places, they can be defended impregnably.
"Now that the construction of Qishan Fortress has been completed, and the people will support it for half a year, I decided to build Nanshan Fortress and Beishan Fortress at the same time."
Since Yue Shanggu had been ordered by Chu Ming to accompany Song Que to guard Qishan Fortress, new candidates had to be considered when planning to build Nanshan Fortress and Beishan Fortress.
"Zhenjun Wen Qiong, led by Lord Tianyongxing, Lord Tianshaxing, Lord Diquanxing, Lord Dizhengxing, and Lord Dipixing, is responsible for preparing for the construction of Nanshan Fortress and will station it on site after it is completed."
Chu Ming knew that the "sweeping monk" was not good at secular affairs, so he sent Duan Yu, Dongfang Bubai, Ren Woxing, Yang Xiao, Fan Yao and others to Nanshan.
Except for Duan Yu, who is the guarantee of combat power, the other Westerners are good at organization and can make up for the shortcomings of the sweeping monk. "Zhencai Zhenjun will lead the Tianyi Star Lord, Tiansei Star Lord, Diji Star Lord, Earth Demon Star Lord, and Earth Evil Star Lord to be responsible for the preparation of the Beishan Fortress. After it is completed, they will also be stationed on the spot."
Although Xiang Yutian is not as indifferent to world affairs as the sweeping monk, he is free and uninhibited, so Chu Ming assigned Tu Fengsan, Nie Feng, Song Beifeng, Blood Knife Patriarch, and Yu Zhenzi to him.
Tu Fengsan and Song Beifeng were both mature and prudent people, and Tu Fengsan also had the ability to lead the overall situation.
Nie Feng's skills are very suitable for the environment in the Northern Territory. Like Duan Yu, he also serves as a guarantee of combat power.
The ancestor of Blood Knife and Yu Zhenzi are both "old and cunning" people, and all kinds of conspiracies and tricks are endless.
If the remnants of the Evil Alliance in the Northern Territory want to cause trouble for the construction of the Beishan Fortress, both of them are figures who can make them kneel down and call them "Grandmaster".
Of course, when it comes to scheming, Xiang Yutian is the least likely to be offended, but he is too lazy and many things fail to arouse his interest.
But this combination is more than enough to meet all challenges.
"Mr. Di Huixing is responsible for the central dispatch. The construction of these two fortresses is the most important thing at the moment. Other matters cannot hinder the progress of the project."
"Young master, don't worry, I understand."
After thinking about it, Chu Ming still handed over this task to Shen Luoyan. On the one hand, he trusted her ability, and on the other hand, because she was the general manager of Tiangong, and it was her duty to allocate material capital.
"Dixiong Xingjun, the task of coordinating and deploying warriors from various places will be left to you."
Originally, Yue Shanggu was also responsible for this work, but now he wants to put all his energy into Qishan Fortress.
Chu Ming handed it over to Jiang Wenqing. With her ability, she would definitely complete the task well.
"Sir, are there any time requirements for the construction of the two mountain fortresses?"
Not hearing that Chu Ming had specific requirements for the completion of the fortress, Xiang Yutian couldn't help but ask.
"I have absolute trust in you, Master, so I won't set a specific time."
"But the enemy situation is urgent, and no one can be sure when the demons will appear. Therefore, without sacrificing the people's strength, the sooner the two mountain fortresses are completed, the better."
Xiang Yutian still heard the answer he was most worried about.
I am afraid of this kind of task that has no specific date and is also competing with each other.
Looking at the sweeping monk's expression of indifference, Xiang Yutian knew that it would be impossible to negotiate friendly cooperation with the other party.
After all the tasks were assigned, Chu Ming planned to lead others back to the Heavenly Palace.
Just as everyone dispersed, Xiang Yutian was stopped by the sweeping monk.
"Zhencai Zhenjun, you and I must work together to shoulder this important task. We must not betray the trust of the young master."
The sweeper specially strengthened "Going Together", and Xiang Yutian immediately understood his intention.
"Please rest assured, Lord Wen Qiong, Yutian will definitely inform us of the progress at any time. We must maintain smooth communication and exchange progress in real time."
"Amitabha, there is no greater kindness!"
Xiang Yutian never expected that the sweeping monk would take the initiative to find him and put forward the importance of "moving forward together".
Sure enough, ginger is still spicy!
Naturally, this is just an episode. Just like the current Shanhai Continent, although unexpected situations inevitably occur, the overall development is in accordance with Chu Ming's plan.
Passing by Qishan Fortress, Chu Ming specially met with the senior officials of the Holy Sword Sect. This kind of different courtesy made Tie Potian and others smile.
For the loyal Holy Sword Sect, Chu Ming naturally did not hesitate to praise him, and more importantly, he gave generous rewards. This made other sects jealous and at the same time strengthened their belief in loyalty to Tiangong.
After Chu Ming stayed at Qishan Fortress for three days, he set off to return to Tiangong.
Everything was as Chu Ming expected. When they returned to the Heavenly Palace and everyone dispersed, "Tianlao" appeared in front of him.
"This old slave is guilty, please punish me."
Looking at Tianlao who was kneeling on the ground, he asked questions knowingly.
"What are you guilty of? How should I punish you?"
Perhaps because he had never seen this kind of attitude from Chu Ming, an anxious look appeared on Tianlao's face, showing his nervousness.
But only when facing Chu Ming can one feel the mountainous pressure. I don't know if it's because of Chu Ming's improvement in strength or because of his age. In short, his power is getting stronger and stronger.
"I shouldn't have concealed Yu Mao's affairs from you. I didn't expect that after being rigorously screened by the Heavenly Palace, such a scum would appear, and he is still the Emperor of Heaven."
"Because I was worried about shaking Tiangong's position in your heart, I chose to hide it."
"How could such a trivial matter shake my views on Tiangong?"
Hearing that Chu Ming didn't seem to accept his explanation, Tian Lao was so anxious that he knelt on the ground.
"From the beginning of entering Tiangong, I can feel that you don't attach great importance to Tiangong, and even have a trace of contempt. It seems that you don't take Tiangong seriously."
Hearing what Tianlao said, Chu Ming couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Is your perception so sensitive?"
He couldn't help but feel it in his heart.
Due to the existence of the "system", Tiangong is just the icing on the cake, and Chu Ming will naturally not regard it as fundamental.
But is it so obvious?
He was noticed by Tian Lao so easily.
"Have you misunderstood? How could I not value Tiangong?"
"I don't dare to speculate on your thoughts, but this kind of contempt can still be truly felt, for example, changing the title of Emperor of Heaven to Young Master."
"There are many examples like this. Although you are the master of Tiangong, you seem to disrespect Tiangong's tradition. Isn't it because you despise it from the bottom of your heart?"
Chu Ming had never discovered that Tianlao's words could be so sharp.
"Can't the Heavenly Palace have any restrictions on Yu Mao?"
"After discovering that he was controlled by the demons, I could only cancel his right to freely enter and exit the Heavenly Palace. I was powerless in other aspects. After all, he is the master of the Heavenly Palace."
"You can cancel his right to enter the Heavenly Palace, then can you also cancel my right?"
Hearing Chu Ming's question, Tianlao didn't answer. He just put his whole forehead on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head to look at him. "It seems that you are the real master of the Heavenly Palace."
Sure enough, as Chu Ming expected, Tianlao's control over the Tiangong was even greater than his, and he could also restrict him as the master.
