After saying goodbye to the local king, Xu Lei and others rode their horses and whipped them, leaving the small country of Niu Mao, which they had guessed was destined to be.
"Xiao Lei, what should we do next?" Su Mu asked.
Xu Lei leaned against the soft and solid backrest of the carriage and concentrated. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Recruiting troops!"
"Recruiting soldiers?" Su Mu said excitedly, "Haha, this is OK, now I guess there are more people joining our Demon Sword Sect. As long as we open the cauldron, we will definitely squeeze the threshold!"
"Brother San, where are you planning to set up the headquarters of the Demon Sword Sect?" Ding Xiaodou asked the most critical question. All sects, big or small, have their own headquarters. If you want to recruit soldiers, the location of the headquarters must be established first.
Xu Lei moved his shoulders and said, "I thought about several places, but in the end I rejected them myself. Our current goal is the Holy Spirits. I believe that when we grow stronger, the old thief Nalan will definitely not sit idly by and will definitely lead people to kill them, so we cannot set up a headquarters like other sects."
"If you don't have a headquarters? How can you recruit soldiers?" Li Yan asked. After hearing this, the rest of the people looked incredible. Without a headquarters, there was no place to settle. How can they develop?
Xu Lei said, "I have thought of a solution. Our situation is quite special, so we cannot completely imitate other sects. We must take a path that suits us."
Xu Lei said, taking out a few pieces of parchment from his arms and handing them to several people one by one.
"The basic direction of the development of the Demon Sword Sect is written on it, you can take a look first."
After taking the parchment, the few people looked confused, but they still looked through it carefully. The more they turned to the back, the more surprised the people's faces were, and there was also a hint of excitement.
"Xiao Lei, I have never heard of your thoughts before!" Su Mu sighed after reading them, looking at Xu Lei.
Xu Lei nodded, "Yes, I was a little unacceptable when I thought about this idea before, but we really have no better way."
After reading it, Yang Weiwei nodded and said, "I agree with Xiao Lei's plan. Although it sounds a bit incredible, I think this novel way of breaking up the whole into pieces is extremely survivable and adaptable in the world, flexible and mobile, and able to face various possibilities of being attacked!"
Li Yan also said that he and Yang Weiwei have been in the world for five years. His understanding of the world and some rules in the world are deeper than that of the others. As soon as he read Xu Lei's plan, he quickly found the advantages contained in it.
Xu Lei's plan is actually very simple. To put it simply, it is to break the whole into pieces and not set up a specific headquarters. This benefit may be their headquarters anytime, anywhere. As long as their people are, the headquarters will be the headquarters. The recruitment of gang members will be carried out in the form of branch rudders, which greatly increases the breadth. As long as the right forces on this continent can be absorbed, a branch rudder is set up at each place, and then it grows little by little, and finally forms a qualitative change.
"When the time is ripe, we will immediately summon all our troops to enter the Holy Spirits of All Spirits, and take off the dog head of the old thief Nalan!" Xu Lei said sternly, a chill flashing in his eyes.
The few people walked and stopped all the way, and half a month passed in a flash. What was disappointing was that they had never encountered a decent force along the way. Xu Lei's principle of recruiting gang members was to rather have nothing than be too much, and to only pursue excellence rather than too much, so he still gained nothing.
Woo--
When several people walked to a city, a warning horn suddenly came.
Since the war between the Hualong Empire and the Nuel Empire, unprecedented conflicts and wars have appeared in the whole world. The smoke of gunpowder has spread throughout the continent. All countries are involved in wars. The pattern of the world is changing every day. Countless countries are destroyed every day, and countless countries have announced their foundings.
In fact, most of these so-called new "founding" countries are just independent cities. The world is in chaos. After the war comes, the defenders of the city declare their independence as countries. Some of these cities and countries are completely destroyed within a day. Such things are happening on the mainland every day.
Xu Lei and others were already numb to the sound of such warning horns, and I don’t know how many such sounds I heard along the way.
"Are you annoying? You're fighting again!" Li Yan was sleepy and felt very dissatisfied by the sound of the horns. He cursed angrily and rubbed his eyes, "I'll go down and take a look."
As soon as Li Yan got off the carriage, Xu Lei and others heard a fight, and quickly jumped out of the carriage. They happened to see Li Yan dropping several soldiers in armor to the ground.
"Pull your dog's eyes open. I'm not a person like you. Why do you want me to go up to the top of the city to defend the city?" Li Yan pointed to several soldiers on the ground who were knocked to the ground and cursed.
"What's going on?" Xu Lei asked.
Li Yan spat on the ground and said angrily, "As soon as I got out of the car, these guys came up, and they wanted to pull me up to the top of the city without saying anything, saying that they wanted me to help them defend the city!"
Li Yan just took a little action to teach the soldiers a lesson, and in order to take serious measures, the soldiers were not seriously injured. One of them struggled from the ground, wiping the blood stains on the corner of his mouth, and shouting to Li Yan, "Your Majesty the King has an order that everyone in the city, regardless of gender, age, must participate in defending the city, otherwise they will be killed without any quasi-degree!
"Don't kill your mother!" Li Yan just woke up and had a bad temper. While talking, he wanted to take action, but Xu Lei reached out to stop him. Xu Lei looked at the soldiers and said politely, "We are not people here, we are just passing by."
"It's not okay to pass by. His Majesty the King said that as long as you are a person in the city, no matter whether you are a local or not, you must participate in defending the city!" After saying that, the soldier saw Xu Lei's kind face, and was a little afraid of the fist of the red-haired guy, and added, "Besides, once the city is broken, the enemy will not be massacred regardless of whether you are from here or not!"
"Fart..." Li Yan said as he was about to start fighting again.
Xu Lei raised his hand to stop Li Yan, thought to him and asked the soldier, "How long has it been since you founded the country?"
The soldier didn't know why the other party asked this question suddenly, but looking at the other party's temperament and dress, he didn't look like an ordinary person, and he still answered politely, "It's been nearly a year since His Majesty the King declared independence."
"Can you take us to see your king?" After hearing this, Xu Lei quickly thought for a moment and asked quickly.
The soldier was stunned and looked at Xu Lei and others with confusion.
"You just do whatever you ask you to do. Isn't it enough to beat you just now?" Li Yan saw that the other party didn't say anything, and kicked him again. This time Xu Lei did not stop him again.
At this moment, a pair of soldiers who were about to rush to the city happened to pass by here. Seeing this scene, he surrounded Xu Lei and others without saying anything.
"His Majesty the King has an order. Those who violate the order during the war will be killed without mercy!" One of the leaders shouted.
The soldier who was kicked over by Li Yan also felt confident and pulled out the demon sword and shouted sternly, "Just because you want to see His Majesty the King, you can see him as soon as you see him. Why don't you guard the city for me quickly, otherwise don't blame my sword for not recognizing anyone! Damn, this red-haired ghost stays behind and dares to hit me..."
While the soldier was cursing, Xu Lei suddenly stretched out his palm like lightning, grabbed the soldier's knife with his bare hands, and pulled it hard and snatched it over.
The soldier suddenly realized that he was about to attack and suddenly became stunned.
After Xu Lei snatched the knife, he actually put his empty hand in his hand and frustrated it hard, turning the pure steel-made one into a twist!
"You...you are the soul warrior?" The soldier looked at Xu Lei and others in horror, because only the soul warriors have such powerful power. In their small "country", the soul warriors seem particularly precious.
Xu Lei didn't say anything, but just gave Li Yan a wink. Li Yan understood and copied with one hand, and the fire stick with a fiery red light immediately appeared in his palm.
Hey--
Li Yan pointed at a tree on the street, and the tree started to burn with a crackling sound, instantly burning into a piece of coke!
"Six...six-star war soul general!" The captain of the team leader almost fell to the ground with a chin. He himself was a one-star war soul sergeant. He had seen the highest level in his life, and his current commander was just a four-star war soul lieutenant. However, he would not have seen the existence of a legendary six-star war spirit lieutenant with his own eyes.
When the soldiers heard this scream, they opened their mouths together. This is a six-star war soul general!
Xu Lei smiled and said to the stupid leader of the army, "You can take us to see your king now. Maybe we can help you defend the city if we are happy."
"This...of course!" The captain of the army was so excited that he couldn't speak. If several high-level war soul powerhouses helped defend the city, the matter would be easy, and it was directly related to his own wealth and life.
"I'll report to His Majesty the King later!" The captain rushed to the dumb soldiers, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you serve the masters!" After saying that, he ran to report.
The remaining soldiers immediately surrounded Xu Lei and others, serving them carefully as old men, serving them with tea and water, which made the few people feel a little unnatural.
After a while, the captain ran over and there was also an exquisite carriage coming together.
"Our Majesty has seen you in person!" said the captain of the army, and quickly pulled the curtain of the sedan chair and walked out of the middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes. His demeanor looked pretty good, and it seemed that he was definitely the king here.
"Are you high-level soul warriors?" After the king looked at Xu Lei and others, he looked puzzled. He just heard the report that several high-level soul warriors were about to see him. He was in a panic and rushed over in person.
This time the situation he faced was worse than ever. This time the enemy had unprecedentedly grown in terms of quantity and strength. This time it was the third attack by the enemy on them. The first two times had caused most of his troops to lose. This time it seemed to be in danger. When he heard several war soul masters appear, he immediately rushed over as if he had caught a life-saving straw.
However, when he saw Xu Lei and others, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, because these people were too young. In his mind, those who could cultivate the Six-Star War Soul General should be the kind of person with white hair and beard.
Xu Lei saw the king's doubts and smiled, "Your Majesty the King, don't have to be confused, your soldiers dare not lie to you. We are all war spirits with more than five stars. Now we want to make a deal with you. I wonder if Your Majesty the King is willing?"
