C124 Recruiting Troops
C124 Recruiting Troops
Hearing this! All the Cloud Guards's faces were filled with excitement. They didn't know why, but it was because of Lin Yun's last sentence!
This was too tempting! In the Celestial Spirit Continent, without any family power, it was impossible to find a spiritual object that could improve the energy vein.
The Cloud Guards was an elite of the Black Iron Guards, and all of them were at the peak of the Four-Yang. Their background wasn't high, and their talent wasn't that great. Most of them were at least at the Fourth Grade, and their cultivation had already reached its peak!
As Spirit Beings, which one of them didn't yearn for a higher realm?! No one was willing to stay at the low level of their cultivation for the rest of their lives. All they wanted was to become a Venerable and become a Saint.
Therefore, when Lin Yun said this, they almost went crazy! After spending a long time with Lin Yun, they had more or less understood Lin Yun's temperament.
Usually, Lin Yun would not say anything that could not be fulfilled. Only when it could be fulfilled could Lin Yun promise. Therefore, they did not doubt Lin Yun's words. Instead, they subconsciously believed it!
Looking at them who were excited, Lin Yun's tone suddenly changed. He said coldly, Lin Yun..." Of course! If someone betrays me, I will not let them off lightly. You should know my temper. If you fall into my hands, there will be no good result!"
The Cloud Guards instantly regained their senses, but none of them showed any signs of fear. Instead, their faces were filled with determination!
Lin Yun was quite satisfied. He nodded slightly and said to Lin Zhi, "This is the first place! Secondly, if hundreds of thousands of people want to pass through the Red Stone Mountain, they must pass through the ancient path. It is impossible to climb the mountain because it will cause chaos. As long as they are qualified generals. None of them would do such a thing. So, as long as we lie in ambush at the top of the mountain, Once they enter the ancient path of Red Stone, they will launch a pincer attack from the front and back. Hehe! What do you think the consequences will be?"
Hearing that! Lin Zhi did not think about it at all. He subconsciously said, "They will definitely be in chaos. At that time, I'm afraid they will forcefully split into several segments. As long as we block the two exits, hundreds of thousands of people will only be equivalent to a few hundred thousand people! At that time, the outcome will be hard to predict! "
" Un! Your analysis is correct. You did not directly say that we will win, which proves that you are a cautious person. I, Lin Yun, happen to be such a person, so I admire such people very much. However, you still neglected one point! "
" Young Master, please speak clearly! "
"You neglected the length of the ancient path in Red Stone! In my opinion, this ancient path is only four or five miles long, even if ten people are standing side by side. If the predecessors stick to their descendants, they can only accommodate around thirty thousand people at most. Compared to several hundred thousand people, this was only a very small portion. Therefore, outside of the ancient path, their main force was still there. We are courting death by attacking like this!"
Lin Zhi broke out in a cold sweat and said in shame, "Your subordinate is still too stupid! I didn't even think of this! "
"Hehe! It's normal that you didn't think of that. Because you didn't bring any soldiers with you, you ignored all these problems!"
"Then... if that's the case! Then we won't be able to win! "
"Hehe! That might not be the case! Hundreds of thousands of people will pass through the ancient path. All we need to do is set up an ambush at the exit! They can only retreat! After that, they will give up on passing through the ancient path and climb the mountain instead! At that time, we will roll down the huge rocks on the mountain top! What do you think they can do to me?"
" Good idea! As expected, Young Master is still the best! I really can't match up to you. "
" Hehe! Let's stop here today, let's go back! According to my estimation, the army of Loongteng Empire will arrive within half a month!"
" Ah? Why is that so?"
"Hehe! Don't ask why. Use your brain more."
"Er... Your subordinate understands!"
Although Lin Zhi said that he understood, his expression was extremely doubtful! He had no idea how Lin Yun had predicted that the Empire's army would arrive within half a month.
In fact, this was only a simple logical deduction. It was just that he did not expect it.
Jingyang City was thousands of kilometers away from Fengyang City. Even the fastest warhorse would need five or six days to finish it.
Now! It had been less than ten days since Lin Yun wiped out Loong Shi's army, and the capital would probably only receive the news! Therefore, even if they immediately sent troops, they were afraid that they would only be able to set off!
However, the speed of the army was definitely much slower. They might not even arrive in Fengyang City in half a month!
Of course! This was only Lin Yun's deduction! Whether or not an army was coming was still unknown!
After returning to Fengyang City, Lin Yun began to get busy! He recruited blacksmiths everywhere in Fengyang City. Those who were willing to submit to him all had people bring them into Lin's Mansion. Those who refused to submit, he directly ordered people to drive them out of the city.
Almost all of the blacksmiths here were born in Fengyang City, and they were all procrastinated. Many people were unwilling to leave their homes, so they could only agree to enter Lin's Mansion! Some of them were quite strong-willed. They actually built wooden houses a few kilometers away from Fengyang City. Forcefully forming a small village surprised Lin Yun!
However! Lin Yun was not so easy to deal with. He sent Black Iron Guards to harass these strong-willed blacksmiths every day, making them unable to sleep! Many people surrendered just like that!
However, there was still a tough battle between them and the Black Iron Guards! The outcome was self-evident. All the resisting blacksmiths were captured alive! Although the blacksmiths were Spirit Beings, they had spent all their time forging! How high would their cultivation base be! In addition to the huge difference in numbers, their defeat was inevitable.
Three days later, all the blacksmiths in Fengyang City were swept clean by Lin Yun. All the weapon shops were closed, causing the price of weapons in Fengyang City to soar. It even increased by more than ten times, causing the Spirit Beings in the Fengyang City to complain incessantly.
Just as they were about to leave Fengyang City, the Lin family released a notice! The general meaning was that as long as they joined Lin's Mansion, they would be able to receive weapons for free! There were even Heaven Grade weapons.
At first, no one believed the notice of the Lin's Mansion! However, when the substitute team revealed their weapons, All the Spirit Beings in the Fengyang City went crazy! Within a day! There was almost no peace in front of the main gate of the Lin's Mansion. It was always crowded with people. Lin Wanquan couldn't stop smiling from his mouth!
Within a few days! The Dragon Slayer Army of Lin family had increased to more than fifty thousand people! The huge Lin's Mansion was actually filled to the brim!
Even Lin Yun was surprised by this result! His original goal was to recruit one or two hundred thousand people, but he didn't expect that it would attract so many Spirit Beings.
How could he know that within a thousand miles, there was only one Fengyang City that could be considered a city, and five hundred miles to the north was also a cluster of Magic Beast?
The cluster of Magic Beast was a no man's land. There were countless treasures in it, and spiritual herbs were everywhere. It was a place where countless lowest level Spirit Beings yearned to train and seek treasures!
Hence, it caused the Fengyang City to be filled with people. Adventure and treasure hunting required equipment. However, the low level Spirit Beings could only be used to buy Black Grade or even Human Grade weapons and equipment. Hence, it was often used up and replaced very frequently.
Now, Lin Yun was going all out. How could these Spirit Beings not be attracted?
Of course! Lin Yun was not someone who would recruit anyone. He requested that the lowest cultivation base be at the Second Profound Realm. Age must not exceed thirty. But even so, it still attracted countless people. Most of them were planning to slip away after getting the equipment!
However! They had fallen into Lin Yun's trap and were unable to climb out!
This was because, after the recruitment had stopped, Lin Yun had actually ordered the doors of the prefecture to be closed. All the new Dragon Slayer Army were arranged to stay in a courtyard in Lin's Mansion, and they were led by teams of Black Iron Guards and guards! As long as someone wanted to escape, they would be beheaded.
After killing nearly a hundred people, these people were finally frightened, and no longer dared to run away.
However! What they did not know was that a plan that could scare them was coming!
