A Realistic Mount & Blade Game
#192 - Zhang Bo, who added fuel to the fire
"I see it. It's quite good. It really is a creation of the Spirit Realm. The power of the rules contained within is quite enviable," Zhang Bo said, nodding at this time, especially when he looked at the long-handled scythe that had been placed in the corner, his eyes revealing some amazement.
Of course, he could see that this kind of weapon was a weapon modified from some farm tools, but just based on the power of the rules contained in it, it was not something that weapons in the Blue Star world could compare with.
After all, only weapons with the power of rules can harm those undead monsters or Spirit Realm creatures.
"I have to say that although the technology level of the human race in the Spirit Realm is not as strong as our Blue Star world, the things they make contain the power of rules, which is also their advantage."
Zhang Caidong also saw that Zhang Bo was looking at the long-handled scythe, and without hesitation, he walked over again, picked it up, and handed it to Zhang Bo, saying, "Take a look at it too. I found that the forging process of this long-handled scythe is rough, but it is also quite decent, and it is better than the curved knives in the hands of those gnolls I had before."
"Yes, I also found out that these are some farm tools that are made in batches, or weapons that have been modified."
Zhang Bo also picked up the long-handled scythe at this time, and said with surprise in his eyes: "This shows that the human force behind him has definitely formed a large scale, otherwise, look at those ordinary recruits, why would they have weapons that are almost the same in style, almost identical?"
What Zhang Bo said at this time was not only this long-handled scythe, but also the long-handled scythes in the hands of those Swadian recruits outside, which were all the same.
This was the conclusion he reached after careful observation.
And he also found that those Swadian recruits, whether it was the long-handled scythe, the old wooden shield, or the wooden stick.
Even the weapons in the hands of other so-called Swadian militiamen, as well as the various weapons in the hands of light infantry and various soldiers.
They are all standardized equipment, all the same, as if they were carved out of the same mold.
Including their clothes, armor, helmets, etc.
They are all the same.
This all shows that these soldiers have a completely standardized, scaled, and extremely strict and unified military supply system or logistics department.
And this is what only a large force can have.
How could Zhang Bo not be secretly shocked? After all, his current idea is to split this human force called Deherim.
Then stir up waves in it, so that the development speed of this force slows down, and then give the Green Leaf Group behind him some opportunities.
If he could destroy this human force called Deherim, cause infighting among the people in this force, and start conflicts between each other, that is what he would be willing to do.
Instead of watching this human force slowly develop and gradually unite most people, everything looks thriving.
This is not what Zhang Bo wants to see, and it also goes against his original intention.
Especially Zhang Caidong in front of him, looking at his current appearance, he seems to be more and more yearning for that young man named Shen Mu.
He even really has the appearance of being loyal to Shen Mu.
Zhang Bo now feels annoyed in his heart. If Zhang Caidong is not controlled by him, and he really respects that guy named Shen Mu and is willing to be loyal to him, then when he wants to bring people from the Green Leaf Group to attack Deherim in the future, there may be bigger problems.
Especially once he brings people from the Green Leaf Group to attack Deherim, then as long as Zhang Caidong does not cooperate with him, he will return without success, and even be exposed and even face life-threatening dangers.
These are the problems that Zhang Bo is afraid of, but they have really appeared.
"The problem is getting bigger and bigger." Zhang Bo couldn't help but frown in his heart at this time, especially when he looked at Zhang Caidong next to him, who was still talking to him about how generous and great Master Shen Mu was, he felt even more annoyed.
"That's true, but it also shows the strength of the human force behind Master Shen Mu." Zhang Caidong nodded, with a little more rejoicing on his face: "Fortunately, we joined Master Shen Mu together, and didn't die with the Diesel Company. This is also a wise choice we made."
Zhang Caidong didn't know Zhang Bo's psychological activities at this time, and thought that Zhang Bo wanted to know more about Master Shen Mu's generosity.
So he simply said a lot of what he knew.
"…" Zhang Bo was really a little helpless about this, and he was even more speechless about Zhang Caidong's last words about wanting to give him a place and let him obtain the transformation of the Spirit Realm human race.
After all, he doesn't need Shen Mu to transform him into a Spirit Realm Commander, because he himself has the soul-level resonance of the Little Spirit, and has the Little Spirit race as his Spirit Realm follower, and he also believes in these smart and loyal little guys.
Especially in the research of spells, these little spirits can often give him a lot of help. After all, in the fantasy crystal wall system, little spirits themselves are common assistants to mages.
Now let him accept some Spirit Realm human race, that is obviously not very realistic.
"I don't really need the transformation from Master Shen Mu, after all, I am a divination mage, and most of the things I come into contact with are related to mages." Zhang Bo said at this time: "But I think, you should give that place to someone else, I really don't need it here."
Zhang Bo declined the transformation place.
"Brother Bo, this is a place that I worked so hard to get for you, do you really not need it? And Master Shen Mu is really quite generous. If it were placed in other forces, it would be impossible to be so generous to us, to complete the transformation and gift, and give us the Spirit Realm human race as followers."
Zhang Caidong was a little stunned when he heard this.
After all, he really felt how important it was to have the amplification of his whole body and the weapons and equipment with the power of rules on his body after completing the transformation.
And how precious it is.
Others want it but can't get it, but Zhang Bo, whom he trusts so much, actually wants to push it out, which is completely unexpected to him.
"I am a divination mage. Look at these Swadian recruits behind you, they are all melee units. You can't always let me carry the same weapon as you to chop those undead monsters, right?"
Zhang Bo shrugged his shoulders at this moment, as if feeling a bit absurd, and smiled at Zhang Cai Dong: "I know your intentions towards me, but these intentions really can't be used on me."
"I see, I really didn't consider that properly." Zhang Cai Dong was stunned for a moment.
Then he helplessly reached out and pinched the center of his eyebrows.
Because what Zhang Bo said was true.
Zhang Bo was, after all, a prophecy-type mage. You couldn't really have him carrying a long-handled scythe to chop up undead monsters. That would be like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
Using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. It wasn't a matter of being a good fit, but whether it addressed the essence of the problem.
"Bo-ge, I was so focused on getting you a spot, but I forgot your biggest identity issue as a prophecy-type mage." Zhang Cai Dong sighed, regretting that the spot couldn't be used by Zhang Bo.
But he also understood that as long as a prophecy-type mage grew and reached a higher level, they would definitely be valued, so it didn't matter whether they completed the transformation now.
Or rather, it wasn't just about the prophecy-type mage issue, but that any spellcaster had a bright future.
Spellcaster, this was a very good class to transfer to.
They were the so-called 'mage lords' among the classes, natural nobles, and in the later stages, they often wielded great power, equivalent to a version T0 class transfer.
"It's good that you understand. But with this spot, you can also win over someone else." Zhang Bo suddenly thought of something, gestured for Zhang Cai Dong to sit down at the table, and personally poured him a glass of water, saying as if instructing him: "Yesterday, didn't you say that Lord Shen Mu arranged for a guy named Sun Zhiru to become your deputy? And he's a deputy in the entire senior management."
"Yes, that's right." Zhang Cai Dong nodded, also telling Zhang Bo about the two spots he had given away.
At this moment, a glint flashed in Zhang Bo's eyes, as if he had sensed an opportunity to sow discord.
But he didn't directly instigate anything. Instead, he picked up his own glass of water, took a couple of sips, and nodded in faint agreement: "That's right, I also think you did well. Giving these two spots away both respects Sun Zhiru and is equivalent to respecting Lord Shen Mu. After all, everyone knows that Sun Zhiru is a Blue Star human that Lord Shen Mu personally designated to be your deputy."
"Of course." Zhang Cai Dong seemed to think of something, pursed his lips, nodded, and didn't say much.
After all, everyone understood the reasoning behind it.
In the workplace, leaders would never allow one person to hold too much power, as that would be equivalent to sidelining the leader. Although Zhang Cai Dong was indeed very grateful and indebted to Shen Mu now.
But he also understood that his current power was too great and that he indeed needed to share some of it.
Of course, he understood the reasoning, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Everyone wanted power, and giving away his own power was like cutting off his own flesh. Zhang Cai Dong had only enjoyed a few days of being able to do whatever he wanted with great power, and now he had an extra deputy, which did make him feel a little regret.
Of course, this regret would definitely not turn into the motivation to betray Shen Mu, especially now that Shen Mu had arranged for him to complete the transformation and had also given him 10 Swadian recruits as his followers.
It was just a regret.
"And I have a small suggestion." Zhang Bo then fueled the flames, as if deeply considering things for Zhang Cai Dong.
"Bo-ge, tell me," Zhang Cai Dong looked at Zhang Bo.
"I think you should also give my spot to Sun Zhiru, giving him three spots. That way, you can get along with him a little better. After all, although this deputy is here to assist you, you must let Lord Shen Mu see that you also respect him very much, just because he is your deputy designated by Lord Shen Mu."
Zhang Bo briefly explained why he was advising this.
"Respecting Sun Zhiru is respecting Lord Shen Mu?" Zhang Cai Dong looked thoughtful, and reached out to touch the stubble on his chin, with a look in his eyes as if he had thought of something.
"That's right, we will all have to rely on Lord Shen Mu in the future, and we must not have any problems with our attitude." Zhang Bo gently patted Zhang Cai Dong's arm: "Of course, we don't know what we think in our hearts, but we must do a good job on the surface. You understand these principles. Don't let the matter of Sun Zhiru cause some small friction between you and Lord Shen Mu, that would be bad."
"That's indeed the case." Zhang Cai Dong nodded, these were all big truths.
Looking at Zhang Cai Dong's thoughtful look, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Bo's mouth.
True instigation is never about deliberately picking on things or causing small problems that lead to big conflicts.
Instead, it's about fueling the flames, pushing the wave up little by little.
Yes, Zhang Cai Dong didn't want to have any conflicts or frictions with anyone now.
But once Zhang Cai Dong slowly gave away his power and showed great respect to this Sun Zhiru, it would definitely cause Zhang Cai Dong's own inner resentment. After all, taking power away from him was like cutting off his flesh, and anyone would feel uncomfortable.
Slowly, if there were too many of these knots, wouldn't they become the fuse for friction?
Moreover, once Zhang Cai Dong started to give away power, the other 15 brothers who were his insiders at the time would smell the blood like vultures due to the dispersal of power and start to calculate.
See if Zhang Cai Dong would distribute the power to them, or whether they could get greater benefits.
Wouldn't their small group start to slowly split apart?
In that case, he could muddle the waters from the inside, start to win over some of his own people, and then win over Sun Zhiru.
Then, he could push the boat along, causing Sun Zhiru, who had already caused dissatisfaction among these small groups, to cause some conflicts with these small groups again.
Wouldn't this originally solid Deherim start to enter the backstabbing stage of infighting?
That's what Zhang Bo thought, and that's what he planned to do next.
And he felt quite proud of his own wisdom.
