"I'm not short of cultivation methods. I even have many improved versions that are suitable for spreading throughout the world so that many people can practice cultivation. But the relevant cultivation elixirs are a real problem. Not only do they need them, but I don't even have any myself."
Zhang Mingtu fell into deep thought, but he did not dwell on this for too long, after all, he had the secret orders from the third prince and the eldest prince.
Since you can pick up a lot of armor near the base, it is reasonable to accidentally pick up a large number of elixirs in the future.
"It's just that time is too tight!"
Twenty years is indeed a bit tight for Zhang Mingtu, as the time and accumulation are too short.
After all, he is not like other characters. His family background is too ordinary, and he has accumulated too little in all aspects, especially the accumulation related to the uprising.
"Time is tight and the task is heavy!"
Zhang Mingtu sighed softly, indeed feeling a certain amount of pressure.
"But it's not so bad. I can take advantage of the situation. Both the Third Prince and the First Prince have accumulated a lot of power. There are even many people who want to join them, but they have no connections. Now I can provide them with a way."
"After all, I can be said to teach everyone. As long as you have the ability, I will give you a chance."
"If we don't have guns or cannons, the enemy will make them for us. If we don't have weapons, armor, or cultivation elixirs, the enemy will provide them!"
In this regard, Zhang Mingtu remains cautiously optimistic.
Today, his accumulation of various kinds of knowledge related to cultivation is not inferior to any top family.
Whether it is military formations and commanders related to war, or elixirs and secret records related to cultivation, his accumulation is not inferior to anyone else, and is even more comprehensive.
After all, Yu Zhifu and Qi Guangji, who achieved the most brilliant achievements in these two directions, had worked with Zhang Mingtu for a long time.
In terms of military strength, Zhang Mingtu was far inferior to Yu Zhifu at the beginning.
Later, especially in the recent future brother simulation, he basically surpassed Yu Zhifu.
As for the commander of the army, Zhang Mingtu was originally far behind Qi Guangji. After several lifetimes of hard work, he finally matched Qi Guangji.
In both aspects, he can be considered the best in the world.
Even in terms of understanding of future combat, Zhang Mingtu surpasses Qi Guangji.
The most important thing in war is to know both yourself and your enemy. Qi Guangji has reached an unprecedented level in knowing himself. Zhang Mingtu believes that he cannot match Qi Guangji's control over the army.
But if commanding an army to fight against an unknown enemy, Zhang Mingtu would have a great advantage in this regard.
"After all, I've deduced this many times. Although the battle situation and formations will change, the enemy commander and the other commanders won't change much. I know both myself and the enemy. In this respect, I'm better than Qi Guangji."
Just like dealing with the Nine Lives Pagoda and the Four Seas Magic Circle of the Rising Sun Country, if Qi Guangji were to attack it, he would need a long period of trial and understanding before he could gain some control over the Nine Lives Pagoda and the Four Seas Magic Circle.
However, Zhang Mingtu can easily destroy everything and directly attack the Jiushengfutu Sihaizhen magic circle, and minimize the losses.
In terms of martial arts, Zhang Mingtu, who once helped Yu Zhifu revise the sword manual many times, can be said to be the best in the world in terms of his understanding of martial arts and various cultivation elixirs.
"The only thing we lack now is the resources for cultivation."
Zhang Mingtu took note that this was a big problem.
Those who are inclined to the lineage of the Third Prince and the First Prince would be willing to make certain investments in Zhang Mingtu, but if they really want to build a strong and useful army, it is not enough to rely solely on these occasional allies.
It is necessary to build an institution that can generate wealth continuously and use this wealth to provide sufficient support for the military.
“Alas, I still have to do business!”
Zhang Mingtu sighed rather melancholy, and had a clear understanding of the difficulties and problems he would encounter in the future.
But he was not too depressed, after all, the economic lifeline is the center of an empire.
As long as their wallets are full and their soldiers are paid enough, they are really willing to fight to the death.
His future brother was successful because he paid his subordinates enough salaries and gave them corresponding farmland to cultivate.
Without knowing many details, they were all willing to follow Zhang Mingtu to Kyoto without turning back.
Compared to the insatiable greed of many aristocratic families and wealthy families, the vast majority of ordinary people do not ask for much, or even very little.
After the emergence of good varieties, the wealthy families would increase taxes proportionally, while many ordinary people only wanted something that could fill their stomachs, and they did not dare to pursue anything more.
"So there's really something wrong with this kind of world!"
Zhang Mingtu let out a light breath, and inexplicably recalled the scene in his mind when his future brother led tens of thousands of troops to Kyoto.
Zhang Mingtu did not hide the huge problems and difficulties he would encounter in going to Kyoto.
He openly and frankly stated that they might die and have no place to be buried if they went to Kyoto, but those tens of thousands of people did not retreat and still firmly followed Zhang Mingtu.
"If you don't let me down, then I won't let you down either."
As he wrote this, Zhang Mingtu felt inexplicably heavy in his heart.
But soon he relaxed again.
