The army marched out of the city and poured into the northern border.
Judging from the entire procession of the team, there was no intention to hide Xingzang at all.
On the contrary, there was a lot of noise and noise, and it was obvious that they were going out for a hunting trip.
The army was not marching very fast, it was a long snake, it was not hurried or slow, and one did not know what the mutant beasts would think if they saw it.
Fortunately, the army of mutated beasts had already retreated without a trace, and not even a small beast of the beast soldier level could be seen around the cold winter.
Therefore, the human army marched forward without any scruples, and there was not much to worry about.
Speaking of which, there are approximately more than 15,000 personnel of various types participating in field combat operations.
There are 10,000 troops stationed in the winter, at the front of the team.
Following closely behind were Zhongdu warriors, numbering more than a hundred.
After that, there are personnel from the Imperial Winter Palace, the Imperial Martial Arts Department Winter Bureau and related institutions, the number of whom is about three hundred.
The remaining four or five thousand people are various social warriors, including casual warriors, wilderness warriors, collectors and personnel from other empires.
At this moment, Lin Jie was leading the Zhongdu warriors to follow the Winter garrison.
However, he looked obviously a little uneasy.
At this time, Wang Ying, who was as fat as a ball, stepped forward.
"Is he not coming?" Wang Ying looked at the team of social warriors.
"Probably not." Lin Jie frowned, "If anything changes, there's no way he won't tell me."
"Not necessarily." Wang Ying put his hands on his round belly, "It's possible that he overslept, or was delayed by other things, or even deliberately didn't want to say anything."
"Haha," Lin Jie laughed, "don't tell me, this guy can really do such a thing."
"Then what should we do?" Wang Ying rubbed his belly, "If he really doesn't come, we Zhongdu warriors need to be careful."
"What?" Lin Jie looked at the other party with a smile, "Do you also feel that this trip to the north is unsafe?"
"That's not true," Wang Ying scratched his head, "I'm just used to him being around the team. Once I know he's not coming, I always feel like something is missing somewhere."
"Haha," Lin Jie shrugged, "It seems that Lao Ye charges the protection fee as he should. Even you, Wang Ying, feel this way, and of course others do too.
That’s why he dared to openly collect protection fees and made hundreds of millions in vain.”
"Not that many, right?" Wang Ying looked surprised.
"Haha, you don't care about this kind of thing." Lin Jie spread his hands, "Actually, you can probably figure it out yourself.
We have more than 100 people.
The protection fees defrauded by him ranged from a million to several million per person.
In total, isn’t it just a few hundred million?”
"Then Lao Ye is really cruel." Military warrior Wang Ying smiled bitterly, "I really don't understand why he did this?
Obviously he can maintain his tall image."
"Haha, I thought so too at first." Lin Jie shrugged, "But now I think it's okay for him to collect protection money.
The key is that after receiving the protection fee, he should fulfill his due responsibilities and obligations.
But what about him?
Let's see.
No one was seen.
So, now I suddenly feel that maybe he has another purpose in collecting the protection money."
"What purpose?" Wang Ying was slightly startled, "Playing missing?"
"Haha," Lin Jie grinned and shook his head, "Although Lao Ye sometimes does things strangely and even unethically, he is definitely not the kind of person who absconds with money.
You underestimate him too much.
I think that by forcefully collecting protection money and making everyone have opinions and even anger towards him, he wants to tell us in this way that only strength and strength can give people a real right to speak.
Therefore, this can be regarded as a disguised form of encouragement and encouragement.”
"It's not that complicated, right?" Wang Ying scratched his head, "I think he might just be doing it for money and doesn't want his protection of Zhongdu warriors to be in vain."
"If that's the case, that's a good thing." Lin Jie looked around, then at the team of social warriors hanging far behind him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I hope he won't break his promise.
I also hope he can pay attention to his own safety.
I didn't expect that.
The marching speed of the winter garrison was so slow, and it was still in great fanfare.
If this continues, even if there are a few beast general-level mutant beasts ahead, they will probably be frightened and disappear, right?"
"Yeah," Wang Ying laughed, "Maybe we should prepare to get nothing."
"Haha, it's okay, it's impossible to get nothing." Lin Jie glanced at the team of social warriors behind him, "There are those collectors who can't afford to go early, so there's no need to worry about this at all.
However, we should be careful. If such a large team is attacked, it will definitely become chaotic.
Once our team is scattered, it is not easy to get it back together.
Therefore, we must link the team members in the name of the team.
As long as the team is there, the team members are there, and no one can be missing.
In addition, the various teams must be linked together in the name of the Zhongdu warrior team.
As long as the team is there, the team is there, and one cannot be missing.
In this way, we Zhongdu warriors have woven a big network.
As long as there is one node, our entire Zhongdu warrior team also exists.
However, these things are easier said than done.
To achieve this, I think we must continue to hone and practice it from now on, so as not to be in a hurry when it comes time to use it and delay important events."
"Okay," Wang Ying nodded, "Shall I call the captains of each team over now?"
"Okay, you go." Lin Jie continued, "But you have to emphasize that after the captain leaves the team, the deputy captain must immediately perform the captain's duties and will not be relieved until the captain returns."
"Understood." Wang Ying smiled and said, "Everyone knows this. I think they are doing better than when we were in the army."
"That's fine." Lin Jie shrugged, "Wang Ying, if Lao Ye really doesn't show up this time, then the burden of leading the Zhongdu warrior team will fall on both of us."
"Well," Wang Ying nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely do my best."
"By the way, Wang Ying, when do you plan to break through?" Lin Jie smiled, "You have been at the peak of high-level martial arts warriors for a long time, what are you waiting for?"
"Money." Wang Ying said with a smile, "Of course what I am waiting for now is money. Without this thing, there will be no resources. Without resources, I will not be able to develop martial arts in the future in the process of leaping from a martial arts warrior to a martial arts warrior.
Make the road wide enough.
If you can't feel it now, it will be uncomfortable if you really become a martial arts warrior."
"Okay." Lin Jie nodded, "However, when it comes to a critical moment, when it's time to make a breakthrough, make a breakthrough. Don't let small things lead to big losses."
"Understood." Wang Ying smiled and replied, "If you lose your life, then why don't you think about the development of martial arts?"
