Resonance alloy had a powerful use, at least in Fang Er's opinion.
This sort of thing had to be utilized as soon as possible.
He immediately had someone fetch Li Tai over, but upon meeting him, he discovered the fellow had already had it embedded in himself!
Under the sunlight, the coiled dragon emblem on Li Tai's forehead shone remarkably.
"Hahahaha, Headmaster, look quickly, isn't my current look dashing!"
As soon as he entered, he proudly pointed to his forehead and shouted.
Coiled dragon...
Fang Er glared at him, "Do you want your father to cripple you, or do you want Chengqian to cripple you?"
"Hehehehehe, not to that extent! Mine is four-clawed, it doesn't break taboos, what are you afraid of!"
Li Tai sat down brazenly, pulled out a mirror from his pocket, and kept examining the emblem on his head, showing no signs of worry.
Fang Er leaned in for a closer look. The coiled dragon indeed seemed to have four claws.
Only royalty could use patterns related to dragons.
Five claws denoted an emperor, four claws a king.
Thus, the coiled dragon on Li Tai's forehead was technically not a transgression, it was just that the emblem was small, and Fang Er hadn't seen it clearly at first.
Since this fellow had already had it embedded, he must have some understanding of resonance alloy.
Fang Er then asked, "What is the production output of this resonance alloy?"
Li Tai, without looking up, was still preening and fiddling with the emblem on his forehead.
"It's alright, it's no problem to produce a hundred to a hundred and eighty catties a day."
Fang Er pondered for a moment, then picked up paper and pen from Motorola's desk, and quickly sketched out a few designs, handing them over casually.
"Pass down an order to make a thousand of each emblem according to these designs first!"
"Headmaster, this is??"
Li Tai looked at the diagrams on the paper with some surprise. A golden saber, a flame, a tiger's head, and the last was the Chinese character 'Wei'!
"It's nothing, I'm planning to reorganize the Heavenly Fire Army and distribute these items accordingly."
The order was given to the workshop. Newly produced resonance alloy was sent to the production line, cut, carved, polished, and then gathered.
Zhu Zi and Ma Chao, who had gone to the Americas and Ryukyu, did not keep him waiting too long. On the third day, they brought the people back.
On the training ground of the Heavenly Fire Army, Yang Jiye stood with his seven sons behind him, and Yue Fei stood with the Yue Family Army behind him.
At the same time, Xiang Yu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and the Eighteen Riders of Yan Yun were all present.
A group of formidable generals stood there like immovable mountains, their gazes sharp as they looked towards the reviewing stand.
On the reviewing stand, Fang Er stood with his hands behind his back, while Li Shimin, Zhang Gongjin, Cheng Yaojin, and others were seated, waiting for his next arrangements.
Li Shimin already knew the purpose of these people rushing back from thousands of miles away.
In the past few days, he had learned from Cheng Yaojin about the series of events that had transpired in the main world after his return.
When he learned that he had narrowly missed out on Star Wars, Old Li was filled with regret.
In his own words, it was all Wang Xuance's stubbornness; without even giving him a chance to explain, he had been clubbed unconscious and carried back!
He couldn't say anything about this, as the stubborn fellow was acting under his own sister's orders!
Therefore, whether the Heavenly Fire Army expanded or not, he didn't care at all.
What he cared about now was whether he could tag along and have some fun when the Heavenly Fire Army expanded and went to conquer the vastness of space...
"Everyone!"
On the reviewing stand, Fang Er suddenly spoke.
His voice was amplified by the loudspeakers on all four sides of the training ground, reaching everyone's ears.
"I believe you have already learned about the war in the main world from others."
"The aliens are attempting to imprison Earth and prevent us from embarking on the path to the stars!"
"Therefore, effective immediately, I have decided to add three new armies!"
"The first is the Golden Saber Army, led by Yang Jiye as commander!"
"The second is the Beiwei Army, led by Yue Fei as commander!"
"The third is the Valiant Army, led by Meng Ben as commander!"
"With the establishment of these three armies, each commander shall select elite soldiers from their former units to enlist, with a quota of one thousand men!"
"Furthermore, the Torch Squad's designation is updated to the Thunder Fire Legion. In addition to the existing personnel, another thousand elites will be selected from the Heavenly Fire Army to join."
"I am giving you three days for reorganization. Three days from now, you will accompany me to another world to conquer the cosmos!"
His words were direct, without fiery mobilization or brainwashing rhetoric.
But for these elite soldiers and fierce generals who had been dormant for a long time, a life of peace was truly dull. To return to the battlefield was what most of them craved.
Only a world woven with blood and fire could reignite their hearts.
At the same time, the limited quota of one thousand men for each army also ignited their long-dormant fighting spirit.
In martial prowess, there is no second place.
At this moment, whether it was Yang Jiye, or Yue Fei and Meng Ben, they all quietly clenched their fists.
On the general's platform, Fang Er looked at everyone's reactions below, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
A moment later, he suddenly shouted.
"Award the banners!"
As his words fell, Wang Xuance, Xue Rengui, and Ge Luoyang stepped forward in order, forcefully unfurling the large banners they held.
The banners were all red, one embroidered with a golden saber, one with the character 'Wei', and the other with a tiger's head.
Without needing him to call them out, Yang Jiye, Yue Fei, and Meng Ben stepped forward proactively and received their respective banners.
Then, they cupped their fists in unison and declared, "Your subordinate shall not fail the Duke's trust!"
Following this, Fang Er declared the simple ceremony concluded. Yang Jiye and Yue Fei were sent back to North America by helicopter.
As for Meng Ben and the others, they found Wang Xuance, as their subordinates were not in the Great Tang and needed to be summoned from various worlds.
It wasn't that there was no one in the Great Tang for them to use, but old subordinates were always more convenient to work with.
As the people on the training ground gradually dispersed, Li Shimin finally stood up and, with a darkened face, complained to Fang Er.
"Kid, you're truly unfair!"
"Such an exciting event as Star Wars, and you didn't even inform this emperor?"
He had been staying home with Empress Zhangsun these past few days. With Li Xiuning around, he wouldn't dare to go out and fool around with Old Fang and the others even if he had ten times the courage.
Now that he had finally caught Fang Er, he had to vent his pent-up grievances!
Fang Er explained helplessly, "Father, this really isn't my fault!"
"When fighting breaks out, it's a matter of life and death in an instant, how could I have had the opportunity to send someone back to notify you?"
Li Shimin's eyes widened, "So? You didn't even include the Xuanjia Army in your expansion plans?"
"What's the matter, are you still planning to sneak out and have fun by yourself next time, leaving this emperor to watch the scenery in the Great Tang?"
"I'm telling you!"
"No matter what equipment you give these newly established three armies, the Xuanjia Army must also have a share!"
Fang Er: ...........
"Take the money!"
"Those spacecraft, I bought them with my own hard-earned cash!"
Taking you is impossible. What if you die out there, and I have to go to other worlds to find substitutes.
Like Chai Shao, I'd have to train them before bringing them back, which is too much trouble!
Li Shimin was instantly speechless. He stared blankly at Fang Er, pointing at him with one finger, unable to speak for a long time.
Those were interstellar spacecraft! A technology that the advanced main world hadn't developed. How could he have bought them?
