In a secret location at the back of the plain, Zhu'er, who was wearing a green hairpin, opened her pink mouth wide, looking at the murderous scene in front of her with some surprise, and said,
"Meng Zhao, when did you have so many warriors under your command? I remember when we came, there were only a few hundred people, right?"
Meng Zhao wore a jade crown on his head, a purple outfit, and cloud boots on his feet. His fair and handsome face was full of joy, and he said,
"Yes, when we first arrived in Lingwu City, all the warriors from our Meng family could only gather 600 people. However, after wiping out the seven gangs, we gained a lot. Now we are recruiting warriors from outside, and the results are quite fruitful. These thousand people
The strength is not too weak even in Lingwu City. It should be enough to defeat the Iron Hand Association."
Han Lu was also on the side, but her face was also a little worried.
"But Master, many of these people are not our old people. Will they run away in the face of the battle, or only do superficial things and not contribute to their work? If this is the case, I am afraid it will hinder your plan."
Meng Zhao nodded, but was not too worried.
"Normally speaking, this is possible. Don't look at the aura of these thousands of people, who are sonorous and powerful, like wolves and tigers, and like an army of the imperial court. In fact, many of them are just influenced and forced by the situation present and inspired
With a moment of bloody courage, when it comes time to fight, there will definitely be people who shrink back and act sneaky.
But it doesn’t matter.
With me, the loyal warriors of the Meng family, as the backbone, the overall structure is firmly established. As long as we don't experience a major defeat, they will never collapse. Their role is only to involve the middle and lower-level members of the Iron Hand Society.
The real showdown lies in the confrontation between the innately strong ones, and I have other plans, so nothing can go wrong."
Meng Zhao has done a lot of research on the Iron Hands Association. Even if the Iron Hands Association has a lot of background, and even the person behind Tie Xiongfei helps secretly, two to three more innate masters are already overwhelming. Compared with his strong men, they are still far inferior. This is a complete crushing of hard power, so these thousands of people have such a posture, which is enough to support his arrangement.
One of the reasons why these thousands of warriors were mobilized to participate in the attack on the Iron Hands Association was to train troops.
Through a big battle, or even a great victory, the entire team can be tempered, people's hearts can be stabilized, their wills can be gathered together, and everyone can understand that they are fighting for Meng Zhao. This is the most important core idea.
If such a powerful force cannot serve him, then it is worse than nothing.
At the same time, we will eliminate some people who have bad intentions or are indeed incompetent, streamline and purify the warriors, and thus determine the general framework of future military force.
To put it bluntly, these thousand people will most likely be the framework of a large army in the future, enough to serve as various basic officers, allowing Meng Zhao to deeply control an army of tens of thousands or even more.
The second purpose is to suppress the possible backlash of the Iron Hand Society and take over as much of the Iron Hand Society's territory and assets as possible. This requires the help of a large number of people, not only to frighten the people of the Iron Hand Society, but also to guard against being taken over by others.
When it comes to picking peaches, there are more than a thousand warriors, which is more than enough.
Although Meng Zhao hated Tie Xiongfei for sending people to poison and assassinate him, the reason why he made such a big fuss and spent so much effort to deal with the Iron Hand Society was that revenge was secondary. His real intention was to take this opportunity to reach into the inner city of Lingwu and devour him.
Iron Hands Club, strengthen the strength of your men.
Therefore, the Iron Hand Club's frame can be broken, but its basic strength and vitality cannot be damaged, otherwise the battle will not be considered a success.
"Okay, they are leaving soon, let's go back.
It's a pity that a poisoned person like me can't see the glory of the Meng family warriors with my own eyes."
This is probably what Meng Zhao regrets the most. It is indeed a pity that he has such a mighty and majestic army, but cannot witness the power of his bloody battle.
Zhu Er and Han Lu, on the other hand, smiled slightly. They were actually very satisfied with their current lives, especially since Meng Zhao was pretending to be ill and would not show up for a short time. He could only accompany them to live an idyllic life. They were still very happy.
.
When the morning sun rises, the vast and boundless Lingwu City begins a new day of operation. When streets and morning markets are opened one after another, the Meng family warriors, in batches, are headed for different destinations under the leadership of different masters.
Go.
Han Pu, Cao Zhan, Xue Huaiyong, and Jia Qiang led a group of three hundred warriors and were about to go to the Taigucang Pier in the inner city of the Iron Hands.
Taikoucang Wharf is where the tributaries of the Wu River in the south of Lingwu inner city gather. The total length of the shoreline is 2,700 meters, and there are 120 berths. The total area of the cargo yard is more than 200 acres. If you convert it, it is
With an area of more than 130,000 square meters, it is the largest medium-sized wharf in Lingwu City, earning the Iron Hands a huge amount of wealth every year.
Because this pier is so important, it is a key location for the Iron Hands. In normal times, 800 people from the official gang guard the pier in the morning and evening to maintain order at the pier and punish those who do not follow the rules.
In addition, there are thousands of hard workers in loading and unloading. When necessary, they will become a force that cannot be ignored.
With so many people, they all obey the orders of Lou Guanlan, the deputy gang leader of the Iron Hand Society. In other words, the person in charge here is the innate master Lou Guanlan.
The deputy gang leader is in charge, and this place is too important. There may be innate people recruited in advance to hide here. Therefore, this group of people will gather three innate martial arts experts, Han Pu, Xue Huaiyong, and Jia Qiang, to prevent unexpected events. Han Pu, in particular, has profound cultivation, a star, a magical sword in his hand, and an innate fighting power. It can be said that there are few rivals. He is the leader of this group of people.
Halfway through the journey, Han Pu ordered his people to repair on the spot and wait for a while. Hundreds of people acted according to the order. Although there were occasional gossips, they did not dare to make mistakes.
Xue Huaiyong and Jia Qiang were quite puzzled, and even questioned Han Pu's order.
They have newly joined Meng Zhao's command and have not yet made any achievements, but they enjoy a large amount of training resources and benefits. They are planning to take this opportunity to show off their skills so that the old men under Meng Zhao's command will not dare to look down on them, for fear that Han Pu will be slow to act and delay the opportunity to fight.
Guanlan ran away.
However, the two of them had been in the Meng family for some time, and they knew that Han Pu not only had outstanding personal abilities, but that his sister was also someone close to Meng Zhao, and was very likely to be accepted as a concubine. Her status was different from ordinary, so they could only raise objections tactfully.<
/p>
Han Pu smiled slightly and reassured the two of them,
"As the saying goes, a good meal is never afraid of being late. The battle in Taikoucang cannot be ignored. I stay here to wait for the surprise army sent by the young master.
Don’t worry, it’s the same for everyone, we can still move fast.”
Xue Huaiyong and Jia Qiang were relieved, but they were curious about what kind of extraordinary soldiers Han Pu valued so much?
Fortunately, within a short time, the two people's doubts were answered, but some of their palms were sweating and their hearts were nervous.
This so-called surprise army only has about fifty people, but they are all wearing iron armor and riding on tall and strong black-scale horses with the blood of ferocious beasts. Everyone is holding a spear, a powerful crossbow, and a round shield, and they have a killing momentum. Give them
All pose great threats.
To say they are samurai, it would be more appropriate to describe them as an army.
