"Thank you for your respect, Chief. I will do my best for the prosperity of our two tribes!" Yuan Fang said very seriously.
Long Junhai nodded and pointed at the blood-soaked street. "Look at all this blood on the ground. After it's mixed together, can you still tell which ones are from orcs and which ones are from humans?"
Yuan Fang was stunned. The other party was right. They were all bright red blood. After mixing together, how could there be any distinction between high and low?
Cleaning the streets, distributing food, allocating houses, everything was carried out in an orderly manner under Yuan Fang's command.
At this time, Long Junhai gathered all the human slaves in the city together, numbering tens of thousands.
"Before you met me, you were all slaves. Now that you are free, I don't want you to have any more slave mentality. I need an invincible and courageous team. From now on, our enemies will not only be minotaurs, but also werewolves, elves, demons, and gods! If you have the courage to follow me, take three steps forward. Those who don't want to follow me will be given houses and land. From now on, this Dragon City will be your home!"
Long Junhai did not deliberately incite the emotions of the crowd this time, because what he needed were followers who were truly courageous and brave.
Tens of thousands of slaves seemed very hesitant, because although they usually lived a hard life, their lives were more or less guaranteed. But once they joined Long Junhai's team, they would need to fight everywhere, especially when facing powerful enemies. How many people were willing to take such a risk?
A comfortable life and a stable home were enough for the former slaves, and they did not want to take any more risks.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Long Junhai smiled bitterly inwardly, and finally sighed and said, "A happy and stable life requires sufficient strength to defend it. I used to be a slave like you, but in order to survive and live a better life, I must bravely move forward! Everyone, rest up. In three days, the army will continue to march south. At that time, this Dragon City will be handed over to you to build."
After Long Junhai finished speaking, he was about to leave, but suddenly he saw a thin boy squeeze out from the crowd. He was about fifteen or sixteen years old, skinny and bony, but his eyes were bright and lively.
"Chief! I want to follow you!" The young man knelt on the ground and said seriously.
Long Junhai stopped and turned around to ask, "What's your name? Why are you following me?"
"To answer the chief, my name is Kunwu. My family is still enslaved in the imperial capital! I want to rescue them! I want my family to be reunited!"
The young man banged his head hard on the ground. Before meeting Long Junhai, he had never thought that he would be free. But now that the other party is going to continue attacking the Minotaur Empire, then perhaps there is a chance to rescue his family!
The boy's words touched a sore spot in everyone's heart. The slaves here were basically old, weak, sick and disabled. Because the strong young people were assigned to big cities, there was never a possibility for family reunion.
"I am Chu Yufeng! I am also willing to follow the leader! I hope to see my wife and children again in my lifetime!"
An uncle over fifty years old also knelt in front of Long Junhai. When he was young, he was a slave in the imperial capital and had his own wife and children. However, after he got older, he was assigned to more and more remote areas. It was basically impossible for him to return to the imperial capital!
The slaves of the Minotaur Empire are basically kept in the imperial capital. Women are only responsible for giving birth. Babies born after the age of ten will be assigned to remote areas to do hard labor. When they grow up and become strong, they will return to the large cities around the imperial capital. When they are old, they will be assigned to the border until they die. This is also the slave management method basically used in the Orc Continent.
Humans who had been slaves since childhood were still very intelligent, because basically everything in the entire Orc Continent was built by humans! It was just that their status was humble, and they worked for others from birth to death.
"Master Chief! I want to see my wife and children, too!"
"Master Chief, please take me with you!"
More and more people knelt in front of Long Junhai, and the hope that had been extinguished in their hearts for many years was ignited at this moment!
A smile finally appeared on Long Junhai's face. He said to everyone, "If you follow me, you will probably die before you see your loved ones. Are you all prepared for death?"
"I'm ready! I'm not afraid of death! If I hadn't met you, I might have starved to death or even been beaten to death by those damn minotaurs!"
"I don't regret it! At least I have tried my best to reunite my family!"
…
Those who can kneel in front of Long Junhai are people who are full of hope and have something to pursue in their hearts. They have no regrets!
"Very good. Since you have followed me, I cannot let you down. You are the first group of dragon warriors I have trained! Remember, you are fighting for yourself! Fight for your family! Fight for the hope in your hearts!"
An army with a soul is completely different from one without one. What is the soul of an army? Will! A will as strong as steel! An unbreakable faith!
The main reason why Long Junhai chose dragon warriors from among the slaves was that only those who had experienced pain and wanted to resist in their hearts would fight more desperately than others!
Among tens of thousands of people, more than 800 were willing to follow Long Junhai, which made him very satisfied. After all, many people had been enslaved for most of their lives, and their thoughts could not be changed all at once.
Long Junhai disbanded tens of thousands of people, leaving only the 800 or so people in front of him. He wanted to train the strongest and most loyal team as quickly as possible!
"Let me formally introduce myself to you all. My name is Long Junhai. Remember this name and let it become your faith! I can give you the power of the Dragon God, abundant food, and the best weapons, but you must show me your achievements! Within three days, you must have the power to kill a Minotaur in combat form! This is the minimum standard. If you fail to meet it, you will be eliminated from this team!"
Long Junhai's words startled everyone. They thought, "Impossible!" Killing a fighting minotaur in three days? They weren't even as strong as the average Dragon God Tribe member!
"Don't think it's impossible. I'll do my best to help you over the next three days. Of course, your own efforts are more important! Now I'll teach you the most basic fighting techniques. I hope you'll remember them firmly!"
After Long Junhai finished speaking, he immediately demonstrated a set of sword techniques. In close combat, sword techniques are the most practical. He taught some fighting skills to his tribesmen a long time ago, but with little success. This was mainly because it was difficult for the tribesmen with severe intellectual deficiencies to learn, and without three to five years of practice, there would be no significant results.
