Li Mi laughed, "A behemoth? How does it compare to Leopard Court?"
"Of course, it's incomparable," Yang Lingkong said with a forced smile.
"The reason why Leopard Court did not come out is that we want you to be subordinate to the South. The Gardeners are good at fighting, and you don't actually want to make any moves in the future."
Since accepting the legacy of the Sun God Cult, this association has become far too bloated. However, they have also experienced a lot. Whether they dare to fight is one thing, but whether they can actually fight is the most important thing.
The hot spring club is actually quite elite.
They wanted to use their methods to annex Beiyuan and allow the subordinate Baoting to gain greater benefits.
Yang Lingkong is indeed a knife.
But he wasn't one of those gang members... with knives.
It was Leopard Court's sword!
...
At the same time, Qin Che and his two companions finally arrived at Yonghuan Fort.
"Is this the border of the Northern Plains?"
"Yonghuan Fort, the so-called copper wall and iron wall, has resisted many attacks. It has been here all year round and often goes south to harass the North Plain."
“There are many settlements of Beiyuan people around Yonghuanbao. They are mostly towns and villages. I estimate that the population is probably around 200,000 to 300,000.”
Qin Che heard Li Xin talking behind him and asked, "...What?"
"His name seems to be Xu Yisong, the general of Yonghuan Fort."
"Would you like to know more?"
Qin Che shook his head: "We don't have many informants on the border of Beiyuan, so we can't find out much."
"Sir, we were just passing through, why are you investigating them?"
"Understanding the power structure of Beiyuan will be helpful to us," Qin Che said with a smile.
The three entered Yonghuan Fort.
Trade is not prohibited here; caravans from all over are allowed to travel and sell goods.
Of course, bulk supplies are purchased in a unified manner, funded by the hot spring company and managed by a higher-level management.
"Is this Xu Yisong also...?" Qin Che asked.
"I think so, otherwise he wouldn't have become a general," Li Xin said, scratching his head.
Before they came here, they had asked around in Tongtieshan to learn about many things in the area.
Both Yonghuan Fort and Wumen Fort were guarded by generals.
However, it seems that the elite troops of Wumen Fort are more powerful, while the miscellaneous troops of Yonghuan Fort are weaker.
This has something to do with Xu Yisong.
Li Xin had a fairly detailed understanding of the situation.
Or rather, Yang Lingkong did not hide anything.
"If he is, how come he manages a bunch of ragtag people?" Qin Che asked.
Yonghuanbao was not even as lively and bustling as Tongtieshan.
At least the mining area over there is bustling with activity every day.
Yonghuan Fort, on the other hand, was much more desolate. Apart from the soldiers that could be seen everywhere, there were very few ordinary citizens and not many people on the streets.
Even caravans that come here to do business do not constitute a merchant organization.
They mainly sell daily necessities.
"Food, ammunition, and medicine are procured in a unified manner. Private sales are not allowed in Yonghuan Fort unless authorized by Xu Yisong," Li Xin said.
"The unified allocation of resources shows that Xu Yisong's ability to manage the fortress is outstanding."
Not long after the three entered the fortress, Little Stone found a place to stay and prepared to move in.
Suddenly, a large crowd surged through the streets, and a troop marched back to the fortress, their bodies stained with blood and filthy.
But each of them had a look of pride and high morale on their face.
"It seems we've won the battle," Qin Che smiled.
"To be so pathetic dealing with some mountain people, if it were the Leopard Court soldiers, they would be punished." Li Xin rolled his eyes, looking very disdainful.
"Don't underestimate the mountain people. Although their technology and equipment are backward, they are stronger and more experienced than ordinary people. The mountain people are fearless and would be a suicide squad on the battlefield."
Li Xin remained silent.
Because Qin Che's words make sense.
The notion that mountain peoples are better fighters than people from the northern plains has never changed.
This seems to be common knowledge that everyone agrees on.
The savages ran faster, jumped higher, shot arrows more fiercely, and killed more ruthlessly.
Unless you encounter a psionic unit.
The psionic army was incredibly strong, unmatched by anyone. But perhaps mortals were too weak, and savages were no match for them, given that they were psionic soldiers. Of course, it's hard to say for sure, but the psionic army swept through the battlefield as soon as they entered the fray.
When ordinary people encounter them, their morale will naturally plummet. Anyone facing a group of daredevils, even if their equipment is inferior, will tremble at the sight of these savages who have still managed to win many impressive battles.
Wild men are also very strong, but they don't know how strong they are. They are just technologically backward, but their other abilities are still quite good. Ordinary people would avoid them. It's not that simple. Of course, if it were in the past, it would be hard to say.
"If this were the era of cold weapons, mountain tribes would definitely be the strongest special forces," Qin Che commented.
Li Xin remained silent, but then said, "Don't brag, the Leopard Court Soldiers are the strongest special forces."
Qin Che smiled: "If Zhou Qing's genetic engineering project can be successfully completed, then we can be considered to have the strongest special forces."
...
On the street, the victorious soldiers were overjoyed and beaming with pride.
During this battle, they also captured many savage prisoners.
They were put in wooden prison carts, chained up, and sent back to collect their reward.
"How many did you arrest this time?"
"Hehe, not many, only about twenty."
"Goodness, they're trying to catch rabbits."
Where is your company?
“We only have a dozen or so men, but that’s enough. Take the reward back and distribute it to the brothers. Let’s go to Blue Bay for a feast.”
"Hahaha, all you ever think about are women. What kind of future do you have?"
