Tang Guo's face turned pale when he heard this. The rest of the soldiers also withered. They didn't know what to say. After all, this was His Majesty, whom all the big shots in the military treated with reverence and respect.
Even Marshal Tang Tianjun, whom they revered the most, was well-behaved in front of him. How could they dare have any objections?
Tang Guo felt that if Ye Tianze went back and said this, his father would definitely skin him alive. In the end, he braced himself and said, "Your Majesty, just pretend that we didn't say anything. Otherwise, my father will beat the shit out of me."
"Why do I feel that you aren't afraid of your grandfather but your father?" Ye Tianze asked.
"My grandfather is easy to talk to, but my father isn't." Tang Guo smiled bitterly. "I heard from my grandfather that you are also easy to talk to, Your Majesty."
"Do you mean that your grandfather doesn't mean what he says?" Ye Tianze asked.
Tang Tianjun was speechless.
"Then are you afraid of me?" Ye Tianze asked.
"I'm not afraid, but I respect you from the bottom of my heart," Tang Tianjun said seriously before adding, "This is definitely not flattery."
"Alright." Ye Tianze became serious. "Generals of the Vulcan Legion's first fighting force, listen up. Your mission has now changed."
All the generals looked at him with solemn expressions.
"Although it's not good to jump ranks, things happened so suddenly that there was no time to inform the military."
Ye Tianze said, "From now on, all of you will be under my command. Your mission will be the same as before. You will still be fishing. However, this time, you have to prepare to wrap things up."
Tang Guo, who heard that there was hope, asked, "May I ask, Your Majesty, how exactly will this be carried out?"
Then, Ye Tianze gave them a mission. The general goal was to put on a show with them and kill the million-strong Mysterious Underworld army.
When Tang Guo heard this, he fell into deep thought and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend against the million-strong Mysterious Underworld army that has been lured in. Why don't we inform the military and mobilize the entire first division?"
"This was planned by the Mysterious Underworld Army. By the time you mobilize the first batch of troops, it will be too late!" Ye Tianze said. "However, it's good to send someone to inform them."
Tang Guo immediately ordered someone to inform the Vulcan Legion. However, he knew that even if he notified the Vulcan Legion as soon as possible, it would still take several months before the military headquarters made a decision and the first division was mobilized.
The First Division was the strongest fighting force in the Vulcan Legion, and even in the entire Never-Ending Army. Naturally, there were important considerations.
Therefore, the adjustment of the deployment might even affect the strategic deployment of the entire army.
Therefore, Ye Tianze didn't participate in the strategic deployment of the military headquarters. Transferring troops beyond his rank would obviously disrupt his own formation.
After all, if the first fighting force stationed in the Hell Path was transferred away or something happened, the defense of the Hell Path would be empty. If the enemy attacked from there, the entire army wouldn't have any buffer time to adjust.
This was the drawback of transferring troops beyond one's rank.
However, Ye Tianze naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity. If he could kill the million-strong Mysterious Underworld army there, the situation that the Desolate Tribe would face would be much easier.
Upon seeing Tang Guo's worried expression, Ye Tianze said, "Are you worried that we won't be able to win?"
"I participated in the previous battle. According to Your Majesty's information, 10,000 against a million. Even if we fight to the death, we still have no chance of winning."
Tang Guo was very rational. After all, he knew that war couldn't be won just by hot-bloodedness.
Ye Tianze patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are smarter than your grandfather."
Tang Guo smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, my grandfather didn't teach me this. My father taught me this. According to my father, my grandfather always liked to fight tough battles. Although he could defeat his opponents every time, he would suffer heavy losses even if he won. Therefore, my father said that unless there was no other choice, he definitely shouldn't copy my grandfather's tactics. My grandfather … I heard that he learned it from you. However, my father also said that the only person in the entire Desolate Tribe who can fight tough battles is you because you have sufficient strength. However, we are different. We can't compare to Your Majesty, so we have to use our brains and think more."
"Are you praising me or scolding me?" Ye Tianze said in annoyance.
"This … is definitely praising you."
Tang Guoguo smiled brightly. "If I could, I'd like to be like you and fight the enemy where they are the strongest. That way, once the enemy is defeated, the enemy will never be able to get up again. That's why you're so powerful."
"Don't flatter me."
Ye Tianze was very satisfied with Tang Guoguo and the warriors under his command.
Although Tang Guo was only a general in the first line of battle, he would definitely be a talented general when he grew up.
In this way, the talent echelon of the Desolate Tribe would continue to rise. In the future, Tang Tianjun and the others wouldn't need to command at the front line. They would only need to formulate strategies in the military headquarters or take action when faced with local peerless experts.
If Tang Tianjun and the others had to deal with everything in person, Ye Tianze would have been vigilant and worried. In such a situation, either the higher-ups were blind, or there was a problem with the hatching of the Primitive Tribe.
Ye Tianze hoped that the younger generation like Tang Guo could rise up. Only then could the entire Desolate Tribe truly rise up and become invincible.
Therefore, after the Desolate Tribe gained a foothold in the Bedlam, they didn't participate too much in the affairs of the lower realms.
The previous battle was completely controlled by the military headquarters. It was only when the military was powerless against the experts of the Peerless Path that Ye Tianze truly took action.
Then, Ye Tianze took out the Cloudsoaring Shuttle filled with resources and said, "This is for you. Use it well. How much you can achieve in the end will depend on yourselves!"
"Your Majesty, this is … the Cloudsoaring Shuttle?" Tang Guo swallowed hard.
"That's right!" Ye Tianze nodded.
"Can I use the Fiendcelestial Crossbow inside?" Tang Guo asked. "If you can, how many times can I use it?"
"Yes."
Ye Tianze said. "Most importantly, you have to use the Fiendcelestial Crossbow to shoot me once. Only then can I escape."
"This …" The group of soldiers was stunned.
They all knew how powerful the Cloudsoaring Shuttle was. An ultimate weapon like the Fiendcelestial Crossbow could kill an expert of the Peerless Path with a single shot. Of course, that was unless the opponent didn't dodge.
Wouldn't shooting their Majesty with a single shot be equivalent to taking their own life?
Tang Guo took the Cloudsoaring Shuttle and said, "Your Majesty, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Why are you being so wishy-washy like a woman? If I tell you to do it, just do it. You don't have to care so much. In any case, you have to create the illusion that I was killed by you. As for my safety, you don't have to worry about it."
Ye Tianze said.
Tang Guo immediately put away his timid expression when he heard that it was a military order. He said, "Yes, Your Majesty. I won't let you down."
Seeing him happily holding the Cloudsoaring Shuttle, Ye Tianze shuddered. Would this guy really not give him any face when the time came?
