Chapter 107: Making Arrangements
After confirming that the gold-tier slinger specialization skill book was in his inventory, Luo Ji didn’t forget his original goal.
He quickly searched for shield-axeman and spent 660,000 civilization points to buy a silver-tier shield-Axeman specialization skill book.
With these purchases, the civilization points Luo Ji had earned from selling the elixir of immortality were almost entirely depleted.
Looking at the two skill books he impulsively bought, there was no debate in Luo Ji’s mind about who would receive the gold-tier slinger specialization skill book.
When defense and slinger were combined, who else could it be but Zhao Pan among Luo Ji’s subordinates?
However, the silver-tier shield-Axeman specialization skill book left him a bit conflicted.
Luo Yong or Liu Zheng?
Who should get it?
As he pondered, Luo Ji’s brows furrowed together.
From the perspective of loyalty, Luo Yong, with his full loyalty, was his devoted confidant.
However, Liu Zheng, whose loyalty had reached 91 points, was also unlikely to betray him.
Comparing their attribute panels, both had their strengths. After some deliberation, Luo Ji ultimately chose Luo Yong.
He didn’t deny his favoritism towards Luo Yong, but what of it?
After simply calling the two over, he directly used the skill books, bestowing the two troop commanding specialization skills upon Luo Yong and Zhao Pan respectively.
While admonishing Luo Yong to train the shield-axemen well, he also took a moment to check Zhao Pan’s attribute panel.
Thinking about it, he realized he hadn’t checked Zhao Pan’s panel in a while.
Upon seeing it now, he was astonished.
The changes were truly significant.
Both his intelligence and leadership, which were originally two stars, had now increased to three stars, and the number of skills in his skill bar had also increased significantly.
There was inspire morale, sling mastery, and the gold-tier slinger specialization skill he had just given him.
Of course, there was also that annoying fishing skill!
Oh dear, his stomach started to ache again.
He really wanted to quickly build a military academy to remove that eyesore of a skill!
In any case, that was for later.
For now, he needed to focus on the task at hand.
Since he had already spent one million civilization points, how could he not further develop slingers?
With this thought, Luo Ji organized his thoughts and immediately spoke.
“Zhao Pan, I have a task for you.”
“Chief, please give your command.”
Zhao Pan replied calmly.
“I’ll give you ten slots. Select ten tribal members to join the Slinger unit. You decide how and whom to choose. Afterward, these slingers will also be trained by you.”
Luo Ji paused before continuing.
“You don’t have much time. There are only a few days left until the outsiders invade. Therefore, the task is quite challenging. I don’t expect you to train ten new recruits into expert marksmen in just a few days, but at least they need to use them competently, understand?”
“I guarantee to complete the mission.”
“Good, you two get to work.”
Leaving Luo Ji’s tent, before Zhao Pan could even organize his selection plan for the slingers, Luo Yong, walking beside him, directly punched him.
“Look at you!”
“From the chief’s stance, he’s going to develop the slinger unit.”
“You’ve finally found your true calling!”
A while ago, Luo Ji had continuously favored the archer team, causing the slingers to have no opportunities to showcase their skills.
Luo Yong witnessed this and secretly worried for his comrade.
Now, hearing Luo Ji’s new command, Luo Yong was genuinely happy for Zhao Pan from the bottom of his heart.
Zhao Pan also chuckled in response, indicating that he was indeed in a good mood at the moment.
“How can I compare to you?”
“Haven’t you seen how formidable the shield-axemen unit was after the battle a few days ago?”
“Now that unit is under your command, are you happy?”
Regarding the slinger issue, Zhao Pan had already come to terms with it after a heart-to-heart talk with Luo Ji.
On the other hand, ever since Liu Zheng arrived, whenever a fierce general was needed in battle, Luo Ji tended to favor sending out Liu Zheng, while Luo Yong himself had become Luo Ji’s personal bodyguard.
Of course, Luo Yong would never shirk from such an important duty as protecting the chief!
It was just that sometimes, seeing Liu Zheng charging into battle, he couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.
Upon mentioning this, Luo Yong scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, but the smug expression on his face couldn’t be hidden.
Seeing Luo Yong like this, Zhao Pan felt a strange sense of worry and quickly reminded him.
“Don’t get carried away, kid.”
“The Chief clearly favored you this time.”
“Be modest when you meet Liu Zheng later.”
“We’re all on the same side now, don’t sour our relationship and cause trouble for the Chief later!”
Luo Yong’s expression visibly straightened, but he still stubbornly retorted.
“I know, I know, I have it handled.”
“I still need to train the shield-axeman unit, so I’m off first!”
Watching Luo Yong’s retreating figure, Zhao Pan sighed, wondering if he had truly taken the advice to heart.
But he couldn’t dwell on it, the task the Chief had assigned him was indeed challenging.
To train a group of new slingers to a respectable level within just a few days, he had to race against time!
With Luo Ji’s approval, Zhao Pan was now free to act.
He directly issued a conscription order throughout the tribe and instructed the Armament Department to prepare slings and stones for the selection.
He had the tribal members who signed up take turns using slings in the open space outside the camp.
Ultimately, based on their performance, Zhao Pan would personally decide whom to accept.
For the people of the ancient era, who usually had little to do, this was clearly a big event.
It attracted many idle individuals to watch, and even Luo Ji was eventually drawn in, coming over to join the fun and expressing his approval of Zhao Pan’s selection method.
However, before he could watch for long, Zhou Yue, clad in shield-axeman gear, rushed over with a frantic expression.
“Chief, Chief, this is bad, this is bad…”
Seeing Zhou Yue completely out of breath and barely able to speak, Luo Ji was exasperated.
“Zhou Yue, is it just my imagination?”
“Every time you come running, it’s never good news!”
Hearing this, Zhou Yue looked as if he was about to cry.
“Chief, it’s not that! It’s just that I’m the fastest runner in the unit, so whenever something happens, I’m the one who rushes to report to you…”
“Alright, alright.”
Luo Ji waved his hand.
“Tell me, what happened now?”
“It’s the captain, the captain and Liu Zheng are fighting!”
