Zhang Tie's meritorious deeds in the theater of operations were really honorable to his ancestors.
According to the regulation of Taixia Country, unless one killed a demon, one could not be conferred a title of nobility. Zhang Tie's dad's title of nobility was almost the only title that could be conferred by Xuanyuan Hill. This title of nobility was inferior to the title of king, duke, marquis, count, viscount and baron. It was not conferred by the Heavens Fortune List; instead, it was the only title that could be conferred by Xuanyuan Hill. This title of nobility symbolized honor, namely, those who had made great contributions to humans in the holy war even though they had not killed demons on the battlefield.
Zhang Tie's dad and mom were both conferred by Xuanyuan Hill, which meant that Xuanyuan Hill appreciated them for having such a son.
Zhang Tie's meritorious deeds not only solved the food problem in the theater of operations at the critical moment and stabilized the morale of the army in Taixia Country but also invented Fiery Oil, all-purpose medicament and the first human air force in this age …
The fighter planes used by air forces in Taixia Country were invented by Zhang Tie; the dual-drive engine was invented by Zhang Tie; the Fiery Oil used by the dual-drive engine was invented by Zhang Tie; even the Flight Handbook and Air Combat Handbook were compiled by Zhang Tie based on his own experience. To a certain extent, Zhang Tie was the father of human air forces in Black Iron Age.
When Zhang Tie's dad and mom officially became members of the nobles in Taixia Country, Meng Shidao officially took over the office of prime minister in Xuanyuan Hill and became one of the top three chancellors in Taixia Country.
Previously, Zhang Tie was worried that Meng Shidao would bring too much stress to Huaiyuan Palace and Zhang Tie's family. However, Zhang Tie didn't worry about that now. Because in July, Zuoqiu Mingyue, the commander-in-chief of the western theater of operations of Taixia Country, one of the top three chancellors in Taixia Country who was also one of the top three chancellors in Taixia Country and ruled the western theater of operations of Taixia Country, submitted an official letter to Xuanyuan Hill, requesting Xuanyuan Hill to list Fiery Oil as the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country.
The moment Zuoqiu Mingyue submitted an official letter, it had attracted the attention of the entire world. The increase or decrease of any material in the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country was a major event that was related to the stability of the country. Additionally, since the first holy war broke out, the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country had remained unchanged for hundreds of years. To some extent, if Fiery Oil was listed as the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country, it meant that the use of Fiery Oil would be promoted to a national policy.
Besides Zuoqiu Mingyue, all the commanders of the top four armies of Taixia Country, Lord Guangnan's Mansion, Northeast Military Region, clans affiliated to Heavens Fortune Sect, major clans across Taixia Country, provincial governors and prefectural governors even Human Rune Instrument Masters Union had requested Xuanyuan Hill to list Fiery Oil as the storage of the top 6 warehouses of Taixia Country.
As it was a major event to increase or decrease the storage of the top six warehouses of Hua Country, the procedure had to be very meticulous. Generally, the first step of increasing or decreasing the storage of the top six warehouses of Hua Country was to create a great momentum among the people, have a great foundation of usage and a relatively high voice. After that, at least a prefectural governor of Taixia Country would submit an official letter to the top three chancellors of Taixia Country for negotiation. After the three chancellors of Taixia Country reached a consensus, Emperor Xuanyuan would make a decision and announce it to the public.
As Zuoqiu Mingyue was the commander-in-chief of Taixia Country, the moment he submitted an official letter, the procedure had come to the last two steps. As long as the three chancellors of Taixia Country reached a consensus and the crown prince who was in charge of the country agreed with it, it would be fixed.
Nobody dared doubt that there was anything wrong with Zuoqiu Mingyue's official letter. Because of the benefits of Fiery Oil, anyone with discerning eyes had already seen it. Additionally, with the invasion of demons, Fiery Oil had long been spread across Taixia Country in the momentum of a prairie fire, affecting numerous people's nerves and eyesight.
After Zuoqiu Mingyue submitted an official letter, the news from Xuanyuan Hill was that the minister of public works agreed with this opinion very much. Therefore, the last person to decide whether Fiery Oil should be listed in the storage of the top six warehouses of Hua Country was Meng Shidao who had just become the prime minister of Taixia Country. As long as the three chancellors of Taixia Country agreed with it, the crown prince who was in charge of the national seal of Xuanyuan Hill would definitely agree with it. Even Emperor Xuanyuan would not reject the unanimous decision of the three chancellors of Taixia Country, not to mention the crown prince. If the three chancellors of Taixia Country agreed with it, people across Taixia Country would not doubt the three chancellors of Taixia Country; instead, they would doubt whether the crown prince had the ability to supervise the country. As long as the crown prince had a normal IQ, he would not dig a pit for himself on this issue …
Everyone was paying attention to Meng Shidao.
In the entire July, the atmosphere in Xuanyuan Hill was a bit weird. When Meng Shidao became the prime minister of Taixia Country and numerous backbones of the Gobbling Party across Taixia Country started to cheer up, the first problem in front of Meng Shidao was whether to list Fiery Oil as the storage of the top six warehouses of Hua Country.
Fiery Oil belonged to Zhang Tie; however, Zhang Tie was the grand elder of Huaiyuan Palace. The resentment between Meng Shidao and the Gobbling Party against Huaiyuan Palace was known across the world. As long as Zhang Clan's Fiery Oil became the storage of the top six warehouses of Hua Country, the rise or fall of Zhang Clan would be related to the safety and stability of Taixia Country. By then, who would dare offend Huaiyuan Palace or Zhang Clan casually …
If Meng Shidao agreed, he would set up a powerful enemy for himself; if Meng Shidao didn't agree, the integrity of this new premier of Taixia Country would be ruined in the mouth of the public. As a result, Meng Shidao's image and prestige that he had been painstakingly building would suffer a destructive strike …
All the people across the world were waiting for Meng Shidao's final opinion.
Everyone was waiting for a good show, except for Zhang Tie.
Besides grains, the moment the corns started to be reaped, all the Fiery Oil bases across the theater of operations had been busy. The first batch of Fiery Oil produced by the Fiery Oil bases across the theater of operations had been delivered to the arsenals across the country. The arsenals across the theater of operations had long been waiting for the arrival of Fiery Oil. They worked in three shifts 24 hours a day and soon produced the first batch of Fiery Oil equipment.
On July 29, Zhang Tie escorted the first batch of Fiery Oil equipment to the frontline corps of Taixia Country with the help of the first batch of Fiery Oil equipment in the rear of the theater of operations.
Standing at the prow of the airboat, Zhang Tie watched the billows and clouds as he was thinking about Fiery Oil. This was a major event for Taixia Country and Zhang Clan. Previously, Zhang Tie thought that all-purpose medicament would be the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country; he had not imagined that Fiery Oil could catch up with it and become an important resource to resist demons at once, which attracted the attention of all the people across the world …
Would Meng Shidao disagree with it?
If it was someone else, it would be a dilemma; however, it was Meng Shidao …
When Zhang Tie was standing at the prow of the airboat, Lu Yanyu hurriedly walked out of the hatch door behind him.
At the sight of Zhang Tie's back, Lu Yanyu took in a deep breath as he tried to calm himself down. At the same time, he slowed down his footsteps.
"Commander-in-chief, I've just received the news that Xuanyuan Hill has already officially issued the new decree on the top six warehouses of Taixia Country 10 minutes ago and listed Fiery Oil as the storage of the top six warehouses of Taixia Country. The new decree has already been delivered to all the provinces across the country through the Finance Minister's Mansion. Congratulations, commander-in-chief …"
