A few captains might do so out of respect for their colleagues, but the ghost catchers would never look down on them.
The abilities of these five thieves were not very good to begin with, and the abilities of the new recruits they recruited were also useless. However, the five thieves happened to occupy a direct position under Kong Hanan, which had long aroused envy.
The subordinates of the Black and White Impermanence are not so bad. They are ghosts converted from national martyrs and they obey orders.
The monks under Ye Qisi, the Asuras under Shura Wu, as well as the Underworld Dog Clan, the Li Geng Clan, and the Underworld Bee Clan, have been waiting for them to make a fool of themselves.
As soon as the words "Special Operations Team" were spoken, everyone burst into laughter.
Kong Hanan stopped their mockery.
"There are three thousand great ways in this world, countless minor ones, and countless inferior methods. However, if used properly, they may have miraculous effects."
"Before you joined my army, your status was not high. I promised you a future, so why can't I allow them to display their talents?"
Kong Hanan's words caused the hall to be silent for a moment.
Although Qin Guang and Gu Qiang were prominent in their lifetime, they eventually returned to dust, and the power of several demon tribes was indeed weakened.
Although Niu Dou, Ma Mian, Ye Qisi came from a prominent family, they were all ordinary underworld demons without any status before.
Not to mention Shura Wu, he was a defeated prisoner of war.
Although several cultivators, including Yang Lin, have some experience, they are not considered outstanding in the vast sea of ghosts.
But it was this group of people, under the leadership of Kong Hanan, who built the foundation of the underworld from scratch.
Everyone in the hall asked themselves honestly that if they were in his place, they might not be as good as Kong Hanan.
Various magical tactics, policies and ideas often make them applaud and sigh.
Having narrowly escaped death many times, although it seemed easy, it was also like being on the edge of an abyss. Looking back, one can't help but admire it.
Kong Hanan didn't care what they thought and gave orders to the five thieves.
"You want to try, I allow you to, but be careful. First, find out the exact location of Jianmen Pass. Come back and discuss it with me and Qin Jijiu, and then make a detailed plan. I will keep the benefits on Luofeng Mountain for you. If you succeed, I will promote you to a higher rank."
Jianmen Pass was shielded by Confucianism based on national destiny, and its specific location may have shifted. Even the "Jiangge County Satellite Positioning Map" given by the Martial Saint has a large black area.
If they find the position, they will succeed.
The five thieves clasped their fists.
"Don't worry, General. I will live up to your trust."
Kong Hanan nodded.
"Do you have anything else to report?"
Compared to before when he had to arrange everything, this time it is much easier.
Qin Guang has sorted out most of the matters. Except for a few individual cases, Qin Guang will report most of them afterwards, and Kong Hanan only needs to nod.
The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other, stepped out and bowed.
"General, we two feel we are close to a breakthrough, and would like to request leave for a retreat."
Both of them are considered the leaders of the ten captains under Kong Hanan's command in terms of combat power and the strength of their teams. Kong Hanan is very concerned about their situation.
"How long do you need to stay in seclusion?"
The two said, "Retreat in the underworld for a year."
One year in the underworld is one day in the human world...
That's okay.
Kong Hanan nodded in agreement.
Ye Qisi also came out to pay his respects.
"General, now that I have been promoted to the Ghost King realm, within the Yeqi tribe, I am allowed to have over ten thousand Earth-Walking Yakshas as vassals. I am requesting leave to return to the tribe to recruit subordinates."
He couldn't stand the life of a blacksmith anymore. The Yaksha clan was the second largest race in the underworld, so how could they be weaker than cattle and horses?
Although the equipment would be cut off for a while, Kong Hanan agreed.
Jianmen Pass is a sword hanging over his head, and the layout of the Witch Temple in the underworld is also unknown. He really needs to expand his combat power.
Seeing that there were no other captains reporting, Qin Guang stepped out.
"General, the construction of Wrongful Death City is almost complete and can accommodate 500,000 ghosts. Qinguang City is also nearing completion and can accommodate 300,000 dead souls."
"Currently, the number of souls that have come to the underworld from Jiange County, plus the people who were previously swept through the ghost caves and my mausoleum, totals over 400,000. The number of ghosts is still increasing, but some of the souls have fulfilled their wishes and have been reincarnated, so the number may not increase anymore."
"Through selection and training, we now have 40,000 temporary employees in the Netherworld. We also have nearly 50,000 temporary workers from the Ligeng tribe, the Ox and Horse tribe, and the Nether Dog and Nether Bee tribe."
Not all members of the Hades Bee and Hades Dog tribes are soldiers; they are more responsible for production tasks.
But with so many more subordinates, even though they were temporary workers, it still put a lot of pressure on Kong Hanan.
No wonder Qin Guang didn't let him distribute benefits before.
"Even with the Soul Honey of the Nether Bees and the Nether Candles of the Nether Dogs, plus the Ligeng cloth developed by Miss Xiaowan, we still can't make ends meet. The loan you obtained from the God of Wealth can barely sustain the Netherworld's operations for fifty years..."
Fifty years is fifty days in the human world...
Not counting the various previous cost-saving policies...
Kong Hanan felt even more pressure.
“Finally, there’s the diplomatic situation.
Thanks to the efforts of the Ligeng tribe, we formed an alliance with the Bird-beak tribe, the Ox-demon tribe, and the Horse-demon tribe.
Thanks to the two captains, the Niu Ma tribe has a very good impression of our underworld and has sent many more people.
The Birdbeak Tribe is aloof in nature, and forming an alliance with them is already difficult. We also have to provide them with some supplies every year in exchange for their cooperation."
"etc!"
Kong Hanan frowned and interrupted Qin Guang.
"Provide supplies? The Birdbeak Tribe wants us to provide them?"
Qin Guang smiled bitterly and said, "General, there is no way..."
Although the Bird-beak Clan is not very powerful, the magical powers they possess are very restraining to those in the underworld.
Their magical power is Yin Thunder.
Yin Lei is also known as dirty water thunder.
In rainy weather, there are rumbling thunder and flashing lightning, shaking the earth and thundering with great force. That is Yang Lei.
