Chapter 219: They are all so daring, right?
The teammates in "Five Dragons" are more amazing than those in "Nine Dragons".
Zhang Zhiwei felt that if her strength had not been forged through the 'Red Dust Heart Refining' and was still in the early stages of foundation building, she would not be able to perform sophisticated spells like 'Silk Manipulation' to manipulate puppets due to the constraints of her spiritual consciousness and total spiritual power.
Having lost her most powerful arm, the 'puppet' which appeared most frequently in this instance, Zhang Zhiwei thought that she would most likely lose with regret.
"If I hadn't been here, Ma Qing would have probably just been killing people in this dungeon."
The ability of the cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building, that is, above the fifth level, has already had some dimensionality reduction implications for the Ming Dynasty where "Five Dragons in One Dynasty" is located.
Zhang Zhiwei gradually realized the impact of cross-level strength on the difficulty of the dungeon.
But...it would be better to just attack from a lower dimension.
This is a game of life where your life is at stake. Only those who want to crush the opponent should fight against each other with equal strength and make a heart-pounding fight.
Therefore, in order to make up for his emotional regrets and lack of experience, after Zhang Zhiwei had basically cleared out the taskers, his favorite thing to do was to watch the protagonists in the front stage from behind the scenes.
The wisdom of the ancients actually lies mainly in their continuation of ancient methods.
In this chaotic era, those who fight on the battlefield or play political games are more charismatic than the investors who once waltzed on Street.
Compared with the Qing Dynasty, which lacked too much culture, when doing things in the Ming Dynasty, in most cases, she only needed to make a start and at most do the work of "threading the needle".
The rest, the part concerning the inner court public opinion war was given to Xu Yihua, the part concerning the ideas that the people needed to implement in detail was given to Zhu Gaochi, the main strategic ideas and plan formulation were given to the monks, and the practical work was given to Zhu Di.
For example, the weapon improvements that have been implemented recently.
All she did was to list the evolution history and direction of weapons from ancient times to the present, in terms of length, style, design, material, etc., and then marked the two completely different armies that the Prince of Yan's Mansion now needs to face - the Nanjing City Imperial Guards and the Mongols in the north.
Zhu Gaochi was best at making summaries, but after all, he had never been to the battlefield in person due to physical reasons, so it was just talk on paper.
After summarizing his thoughts and ideas, he went directly to Zhu Di.
After just one week of discussion and model demonstration, a revolutionary firearm and long weapons that far exceeded the length and weight of today's weapons and were convenient for immediate combat came into being.
Attack and defense equipment, infantry shield formations... and so on. Surrounding the mineral veins near the Shenyang Garrison, large-scale manufacturing of weapons, as well as the covert agriculture and breeding industries were also in full swing.
In just one year, this group of people had figured out the reproduction and raising methods of broiler chickens, ducks and other poultry that are specifically used for food.
Indeed, these achievements are inseparable from Zhang Zhiwei's matchmaking.
But what she gave to the Zhu family in this life was not a simple and clear instruction manual, but probably just a hypothetical proposal with 100% feasibility.
Not only that, being able to connect the dots is the most valuable.
If she was like an omnipotent mother in the Qing Dynasty, here she is more like a boss who is only responsible for highlighting grand ideals.
Just give a little detail, and the employees who pay her can make her a colorful black.
With a family like this, it is hard to imagine why the Ming Dynasty only lasted for a short 276 years.
But in this world, the Ming Dynasty would not be like this.
Because... after breaking through the foundation-building stage, her lifespan will be more than two hundred and seventy-six years.
Immortal cultivators have a long lifespan, and Zhang Zhiwei is not going to waste this advantage.
Committing suicide at a young age, just once is enough.
She is very busy and has a lot to do.

Time passed slowly, and the day of Zhu Yuanzhang's death was approaching.
Ma Qingye, who injected death energy into Zhu Yuanzhang's body, was able to accurately determine the date of Zhu Yuanzhang's death, and even used it to set a countdown for her personal action goals.
The 30th year of Hongwu, the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
There are only eight months left.
No one can expect to have a good time this New Year.
Ma Qing had already predicted that Zhu Yuanzhang would not die at the scheduled time.
Her dead energy was gradually eroding the dragon energy. At the same time, Zhu Yunwen was acting like "I'm so pissed off, what can you do to me?"
Zhu Yunwen had political acumen, but not much.
You can't say he's bad, because compared to the Bao Zong, the Crooked Neck Zong, and the lecherous Taoist priest, he still has certain abilities. It's just that due to the mindless flattery of the civil officials and the limitations of being raised by a young woman, he lacks the so-called sense of security and self-confidence.
His disadvantages stem from his limited vision and his incapable character.
It's a waste of his father's title as the strongest crown prince.
If a child born to a concubine really has a potential impact on the genes of the offspring, then?
It's so fucking metaphysical that it makes no sense.
Ma Qing also rubbed her temples, but fortunately she was now in Nanjing City. Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was in his twilight years and Nanjing City's luck as a capital was about to end, there was not much dragon energy to help her practice, but the eighth level of foundation building was close to perfection, and she felt more confident.
Now Zhu Yunwen has the military power in his hands. As the official history states, he started with 200,000 imperial troops, and he has not lost a single general or minister.
Zhu Yuanzhang left many military generals to Zhu Yunwen, including the older generation such as Guo Ying, Yu Tongyuan, Gu Cheng, Geng Bingwen, and He Fu; the Mesozoic generation who could connect the past and the future such as Song Sheng, Qu Neng, Teng Ju, and Yang Wen; and the new generation of young generals were all under Yang Wen's command. There are two who can leave their names in history, Wu Gao and Ping An.
These people are not a 'rabble'.
Gu Cheng is as brave as Chang Yuchun, Yang Wen is the one who conquered Mongolia and defeated the Jurchens, and Song Sheng is the god of war in the northwest who is in his prime. The only thing they lack compared to Lan Yu is arrogance and fame.
Zhu Yunwen was not without subordinates. He had a lot of them, compared to the three or two under Zhu Di, and their ranks were so numerous that they could be harvested with a sickle.
They did not "let go" just because their opponent was Zhu Di.
In history, Yu Tongyuan and his son, Qu Neng and his son, and Teng Ju all died in famous battles and defended the front lines to stop Zhu Di's Jingnan campaign.
Rather than saying that they let it go, it would be more accurate to say that Zhu Di was assisted by God, or rather that Zhu Yunwen was not good at employing people, and that he was a group of bookworms who had no idea how to fight a war and were only good at talking about it on paper!
Back then, Zhu Yunwen used a strategy to encircle Peking from all sides, but Zhu Di managed to find a way out. He successively broke through the Dezhou Corps, crossed the Xuzhou Jining supply line, and then defeated Yuan Yu Corps, Huai'an recruits group, and the entire Gaozigang Navy.
It was just because Zhu Di had too few soldiers and generals, and he could not defend the city as long as he retreated, so he went straight to Nanjing to steal the house...
An Lushan, who also started an uprising in the north, had a territory several times larger than Zhu Di's and an army several times larger than Zhu Di's, but he still failed to seize the throne...but Zhu Di did it.
Fortunately, she was cautious and kept a trick up her sleeve. She practiced hard for hundreds of years in the Ming Dynasty and improved her skills.
Otherwise... meeting Zhu Di, who was blessed by heaven and had strong personal strength, and who also ran into a puppeteer who was rich and powerful and also had some tricks up his sleeve, she would really be helpless!
Insidious! They are all so stubborn, right?
What about the recommended strength level for clearing the Ming Dynasty promotion dungeon: Early Foundation Building?!
Shouldn't the numbers below ten that are classified as early be one, two, and three?
How come she secretly rolled eight, and the odds of winning are still only 20-80! !
