Chapter 373 373 You did a good job, I must reward you
"It's just a small path, just to prevent the Han cavalry from attacking from the flank. The real magic to defeat a thousand enemies is the five heavenly books."

The Zhang Jiao in Mo Hao's body is not the one in history that he knows. This Zhang Jiao is just a symbol, and the source of this symbol is a combination of series such as "Three Kingdoms Kill" and "Three Kingdoms War Chronicle".

He even had some doubts as to whether this Zhang Jiao had integrated all the related images of [Zhang Jiao] in his game library.

For example, the Dynasty Three Kingdoms series, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, and even more bizarre sources.

In other words, this Zhang Jiao is truly capable of defeating a thousand men alone. He can launch a counterattack against the cavalry and destroy the entire enemy cavalry. He can also call the wind and rain, and summon thunder and lightning.

"Those five books? How powerful are they?"

Mo Hao had never used the five books in his hands. When he suddenly heard Zhang Jiao mention this, he became curious.

After all, if the nine-section staff is used well, it is not a problem to kill an entire cavalry regiment. A few deep pits suddenly appearing on the way of the cavalry charge are enough to knock them off their horses.

As a result, Zhang Jiao now said that the power of the five books is even greater than that of the Nine-Section Staff, which makes Mo Hao curious.

Zhang Jue did not hide it and said directly, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just push the [Book of Human Escape] to its limit and you can make the ground burn with flames and the sky rain with fire. The power is..."

"I still have the ability to burn down the city beneath my feet."

"But doing this will disturb the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth. You will have to rely on yourself to withstand the backlash. If you can't withstand it, you will die. You..." Zhang Jiao glanced at Mo Hao and shook his head. "With your current level of Taoism, none of the five books can push it to the limit. You can only destroy them to stimulate all the power, but this is really a waste of God's gift."

In other words, Mo Hao's strength is not enough. If he wants to use the maximum power of the five books, he can only use them as disposable items.

"What if I push all five books to their limit at the same time..."

Zhang Jue smiled, but that smile was like watching someone touch a leaky plug with a wet hand, "Guess how I died?"

"Dead from illness, ah, that's not right."

Mo Hao immediately realized that the Zhang Jiao in front of him was not a real person in history, so his death was definitely not an ordinary death from illness. He thought, "Is it related to those five books?"

"The consequence of using all five books at the same time and pushing their power to the limit is that for hundreds of years thereafter, the Han border and the Hu people's region were in turmoil and there was no peace. At the beginning, Liu Bang used the power of the Han River to attack from multiple directions from Hanzhong, but after that, the Han River was diverted and the Tianchi Lake disappeared."

"After the Yiling fire, Zhuge Kongming still had a chance to march north, but unfortunately the Han River was diverted so that food and grass could only be transported by land. Without the advantage of water transportation, it would be difficult to leave Hanzhong."

"I call this move [Severing the Dragon Vein] and [Cutting the National Fortune]. If you dare to risk it, I can still destroy his 400-year national fortune. But the price is a bit high, and he will be annihilated both physically and spiritually."

Mo Hao asked, "How long will the effect of this move last?"

"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is in chaos. It will take at least three hundred years to recover to its original state. But it's hard to say exactly how long it will take, but it will definitely take three or four hundred years."

Thanks to his relatively good historical performance, Mo Hao silently calculated the total time of the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty and the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China.

The answer is three hundred and sixty-nine years.

In other words, this thing is guaranteed to create a chaotic era of the Three Kingdoms, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, and the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China.

So if I use it myself, what will it look like according to the current situation in the world?
Mo Hao didn't need to think too much about the answer. After the First World War, there would definitely be the Second World War.

……

That night, William returned with the news of Congressman Martin's death.

Not only did he lead a team to assassinate Congressman Martin, he even burned his house to ashes and faked a home invasion and murder.

At the same time, all traces were cleared. Even if someone suspected that this was not a burglary, there was no relevant evidence to accuse Mo Hao. As long as there was no evidence, even if the nobles and the Congress only needed to suspect, they could take action. This also bought Mo Hao half a month.

Even if a member of parliament died, it would take at least half a month to deal with him given the bureaucratic speed of Congress and the nobles.

Before that, they will eat up all of Congressman Martin's estate.

Oh, no, it should be said that we will find an illegitimate child for Congressman Martin whose existence is unknown, and then keep him for safekeeping and return him to him when he comes of age.

This was indeed a rather immoral act, but it was because Congressman Martin was young and strong that he was killed before he even thought about having a child.

William's on-site falsification invisibly bought Mo Hao absolutely precious time.

As for half a month or even longer, it would not be a matter of Congress and the nobles dealing with Mo Hao.

But the question is whether Mo Hao can tolerate their problems.

Realizing this, Mo Hao patted William's shoulder vigorously, "William, you did a good job, you did a good job, I must reward you heavily."

Mo Hao is not very good at leading an army, but he only needs to know the most basic things.

That is, rewards and punishments are clear, rewards are given for good work, and punishments are given for poor work. There are strict standards and absolutely no double standards.

As long as you do this, your leadership level will be up to standard.

But what to reward William with?
This made Mo Hao think for a while. As for the military power, the number of soldiers on hand was not that large now, and if there were more, William's position would also rise. Just promoting the military rank was obviously fooling people.

Money, the empire's currency has now depreciated to the point where it can't even be used to buy firewood, and can only be burned directly.

The denomination is so large that it is terrifying. Mo Hao dares to guarantee that the paper money he burns during the Qingming Festival may not have such a huge denomination.

As for gold, after conquering the city, this batch of gold will be needed to rebuild the monetary security system, and it cannot be moved around at will.

After thinking it over, all Mo Hao could give was strength.

He took out an automatic syringe filled with dark red liquid. Looking at the liquid inside, he could vaguely see a vortex spinning continuously.

When William saw it for the first time, he had a feeling that this thing could bring him infinite power.

"This is the super soldier serum we developed. After injection, it can give you several times the physical fitness, but there is a certain probability that you will die. It is up to you to decide whether to use it."

It's called Super Soldier Serum, but it's actually the blood of the Great Snake. It was some kind of army-building plan that Mo Hao came up with after he was strengthened by the blood of the Celestial Gods and found Dr. Agumon.

In essence, the plan is to create a group of soldiers with the blood of the gods in heaven, with strong qualities and extraordinary powers, and most importantly, they will be loyal to Mo Hao, who is the source of their bloodline.

However, this plan has not yet been fully launched. According to Dr. Agumon, he should either build a cloning center now, or wait until the Heavenly Book World expands to the national level and many production lines are in place before considering this issue.

At this time, what Mo Hao took out as a reward for William was the semi-finished product that Dr. Agumon had made after researching it.

The diluted blood of the snake will minimize the mental impact on the user. After all, what is needed is a controllable army rather than a group of berserkers.

But correspondingly, the probability of exploding and dying after a failed enhancement also increases.
