Chapter 240: A huge amount of spoils, this time the harvest is huge
"Is this the famous Arabian dragon horse in the rumors?"
"They look no different from dragon-scale horses except that their dragon scales are pitch black."
The next morning, after Li Dingguo explained some matters to Wei Ying and Liang Liping, he brought Xiao Shitou to the Western treasure ship docked at the big pier.
Looking at the three foals that were staying obediently on the deck under the care of the golden eagle, he exclaimed in surprise.
His main purpose today was to come and see how rich the spoils he had obtained after this surprise attack were.
By the way, let’s take a look at the three ponies that were knocked unconscious by his martial arts skills during the battle last night.
After rushing onto the white barbarian's top-quality treasure ship with the golden eagle last night, Li Dingguo's powerful spiritual sense discovered these three strange ponies. In order to prevent them from running around, he used sonic attacks and knocked them unconscious instantly.
Unfortunately, this time the large fleet of white barbarians did not bring any other magic dragon horses, which made Li Dingguo feel a little disappointed.
This kind of high-quality spiritual beast that can be compared with the dragon-scale horse is extremely rare.
At least this was definitely the case within the Ming Dynasty.
But for those white barbarians, as long as someone offers a high enough price, they are so greedy that they can even sell their souls to the devil.
In the eyes of the white barbarians who have no stance but only interests, there is nothing that cannot be betrayed.
In recent years, as the scale of trade between a large number of white Hu people overseas and the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty has become increasingly larger, the coastal gentry and aristocratic families in the Ming Empire have seen the possibility of trading this kind of top-grade spiritual beast warhorse with each other.
If nothing unexpected happens, it won’t be long before many wealthy and powerful families in the Ming Dynasty will purchase a large number of Arabian magic dragon horses from these white barbarians.
Not surprisingly, thanks to Li Dingguo's top-level talent for affinity with spirit beasts, the three foals quickly accepted him and were easily tamed.
"Commander-in-chief, these three foals are so impressive."
Little Stone looked at the three foals with envy. He tried to go forward and touch their fur with his hand. Seeing that they were not angry, he said happily.
"Little Stone, if you can become a warrior within seven days, one of these three ponies will be your mount in the future."
Li Dingguo said to Xiao Shitou with a smile.
This morning, while Li Dingguo was doing morning exercises, he taught him some basic knowledge of martial arts. After that, he taught him the Tiger Roar Fist. Surprisingly, he was able to practice the Tiger Roar Fist quite well in no time.
Judging from Li Dingguo's experience in cultivation, this little stone is an uncanny genius whose talent is no less than that of Ai Nengqi.
If Li Dingguo had not come to Lingshan Island this time, or had been a step late, Xiao Shitou would have disappeared silently from this world, killed by Baldy, the lackey of the eldest son of the Jia family.
In this magical world, there must be a large number of undiscovered geniuses.
But the vast majority of them never had the chance to grow up and died early.
"Really?"
When Little Stone heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. He patted his sturdy chest and said, "Don't worry, Commander. I think the Tiger Roar Fist you taught me this morning is easy to learn."
"I will definitely be able to stimulate the power of Qi and blood within seven days and break through to become a warrior!"
Although he is a little silly, he is definitely not stupid and has a great talent for martial arts.
He must have been certain about what he said.
"That's good."
Li Dingguo encouraged him and said, "I have already instructed your sister to go to the large number of people who have just joined our Fuxing Army this afternoon and select 200 young men and women who have performed well in the past two days of labor."
"Tomorrow morning, I will begin teaching them the introductory knowledge of various martial arts, and will also pass on the Tiger Roar Fist."
"Little Stone, you must not fall behind them. Strive to be the first to break through and become a warrior of this Renaissance Army!"
"Your sisters Liang Liping and Wei Ying will also take turns learning martial arts knowledge and Tiger Roar Fist starting tomorrow."
"I will prepare the corresponding training resources for you today."
"After you, the first batch of candidates, break through and become warriors, you will all be assigned to the new recruits battalions and serve as instructors. You will be responsible for teaching all the new recruits, learning the basics of martial arts and practicing Tiger Roar Fist!"
“This time, even an octogenarian is eligible to learn.”
He said so, of course, for a reason.
Li Dingguo had just been checking the various supplies stored on the two top-grade treasure ships here, and was surprised to find that on the flagship treasure ship of the Tartar navy alone, there were enough elixirs for 30,000 people to use for a month!
With so many different kinds of elixirs to trade with those white bird people, it can be said that Huang Taiji invested a lot of money this time.
Although these elixirs are medium and low-level, they just meet Li Dingguo's needs.
Once he uses the Human Emperor Cauldron to refine them into various low-level elixirs in batches, it will definitely be a huge blessing for the hundreds of thousands of people here.
For example, a first-level rejuvenation pill can restore the body of an octogenarian to its healthiest state, and can greatly restore the vital energy in their bodies. By then, even an octogenarian, if he has the talent for martial arts, can break through and stimulate his own blood and energy and become a warrior!
Among all the known forces in the world today, it is estimated that only Li Dingguo can do such a magical thing.
After all, the alchemy furnace used to refine ancient elixirs is not so easy to obtain.
The knowledge inheritance of alchemy and refining equipment from the ancient myths and legends is even rarer.
At least in the past two years, Li Dingguo has not heard of any forces having such treasures as elixirs circulating.
Because there are so many kinds of spiritual herbs and roots harvested this time, once they are refined into a large number of elixirs of various levels, the second revival army that Lingshan Island is forming will be expected to develop much faster than the revival army outside the Great Wall in the future.
Li Dingguo will transplant those spiritual herbs that contain rich vitality and cultivate and multiply them on this Lingshan Island so that he can achieve self-sufficiency in various spiritual herbs and roots in the future.
This time, a large number of magic cores of various levels were harvested, enough for Li Dingguo to set up several large-scale spirit gathering formations on this Lingshan Island.
Even in the near future, he would set up a small Five Elements Sky-covering Array on this Lingshan Island.
Use ancient formations to cover and protect this large island, and hide it from outsiders, so as to prevent sea beasts or foreign fleets passing by from discovering the true situation here.
It was with these trump cards in hand that Li Dingguo made up his mind to occupy Lingshan Island and use it as the second base of the Fuxing Army in the future.
"Commander-in-chief, don't worry, I will definitely take first place!"
"I am confident that I can break through and become a warrior soldier within the deadline!"
As soon as Li Dingguo finished speaking, Xiao Shitou slapped his chest.
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, the joy on his face became even stronger. He had already made up his mind that he would go back today and start teaching his sister martial arts, passing on his own training experience and instructing her in practicing the Tiger Roar Fist.
"Little Stone, you stay here and play with these three ponies for a while. I'm going to take a quick look at all the treasures and supplies on the treasure ship."
"Then I will instruct Wei Ying to dispatch a team of more reliable personnel to guard the large dock here day and night, responsible for guarding these treasure ships and the goods and supplies."
"But in the short term, all the treasure ships here will not allow anyone other than us to board the ship."
Li Dingguo had already planned that he would not allow anyone other than himself, Xiao Shitou, Liang Liping and Wei Ying to board the ship until the training of the new army's recruits was completed and they were initially on the right track.
There is no way. Human hearts are unpredictable. There are too many precious treasures and materials on these dozens of treasure ships.
After seeing this huge temptation with one's own eyes and experiencing it up close, not many people can resist it.
"Oh."
"Commander-in-chief, just go and do your thing. I'll just play here by myself."
Little Shitou was very obedient. He started playing with the three foals on the boat and did not continue to follow Li Dingguo to check on the various supplies so as not to cause trouble.
Li Dingguo used his physical skills and ran around. It took him about two hours to roughly check the huge amount of supplies on these treasure ships.
When he returned to Xiao Shitou, his face was full of joy.
The amount of wealth and supplies on these huge treasure ships is simply too much.
Its value exceeds the total of all the wealth and materials previously obtained since the establishment of the Restoration Army!
It is conceivable how huge the gains were from the success of Li Dingguo's operation of taking advantage of the situation this time!
Especially the three million or so magic cores of various levels, which simply left Li Dingguo dumbfounded!
He guessed that those overseas white barbarians had many ways to obtain strategic materials such as magic cores, and it was not difficult to obtain them.
However, no one would have expected that this large fleet of white barbarians from the Trench Territory would carry so many magic cores of various levels to conduct a big deal with the Later Jin Tartars.
This is more than double the transaction volume that the intelligence personnel had previously mentioned to Li Dingguo!
So many magic cores of various levels are enough for the navy that Lingshan Island is about to form to use for several years and can meet the consumption needs of dozens of major wars.
This made Li Dingguo happy and gave him enough confidence that he could defend Lingshan Island.
When I have time, I will transform and upgrade the psychic cannons and spiritual crossbow carts on these treasure ships and refine them into magical weapons.
Once the enemy dares to attack, they will first be subjected to a round of artillery fire to see if they can withstand this level of concentrated fire.
After his own large fleet was formally organized, it was time for Li Dingguo to order an active attack.
At that time, it would no longer be a passive attack, but a round of major expansion would begin.
The new army he was forming now was located in the densely populated heartland of the Ming Dynasty and it was impossible for it to miss this opportunity for rapid development and growth.
As long as the population resources and cultivation resources can be quickly resolved, with Li Dingguo's cheating development model, it would be very simple and easy to replicate an elite navy in Jiaozhou Bay.
