Chapter 126: A new and vibrant force, Li Dingguo's ambition "who is it?" "Send your name!" "Otherwise, we'll have to shoot!" When everyone approached the valley, a warning suddenly came from the nearby dense forest. It should be the people arranged by Hongmei to take turns to be on guard day and night. With Hongmei's wicked intelligence and overall perspective, she would of course be able to quickly form a sentinel to guard the valley day and night. "Wei Jinfan, it's me!" "I brought Cao Yongxiang and the others here from Dingbian City tonight!" Li Dingguo had a very strong mental power and could clearly hear that this was the voice of Wei Jinfan, the talented girl under Hongmei, so he immediately shouted to her. "It's the boss and the others who have arrived!"
"All clear!" In a dense forest in the dark, Wei Jinfan's surprised voice sounded again. “Swoosh!”… Several figures flashed out from the dense forest. Several warriors led by Wei Jinfan leaped over and quickly arrived in front of Li Dingguo. "Boss, Cao Yongxiang, Tang Guangqiang, and all of you, why are you here tonight?" "Did something big happen in Dingbian City?" "Could it be..." She is not stupid, but very smart and can easily guess some things. To be chosen by Li Dingguo and Hongmei as the head of the intelligence department, Wei Jinfan is not only very smart, but also has strong analytical skills. In this respect, she is even no worse than Hongmei. "Wei Jinfan, you guessed right." Li Dingguo nodded and said, "The rebels under the Eighth King have been defeated, and their defeat was inexplicable and tragic!" "Today at dusk, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao, the most famous uncle and nephew of Yansui Town, led 3,000 elite border cavalrymen to attack suddenly. They rushed straight into Dingbian City without any casualties." "In front of this powerful army, we, the soldiers of the rebel army, were caught off guard and had no power to resist. We collapsed in an instant." "Not only has Dingbian City fallen into the hands of the government troops, but even the Eighth King himself is unknown whether he is alive or dead." "But one thing is certain, no matter whether the core leaders of the rebel army such as the Eight Great Kings are dead or alive, they will not be able to return to Dingbian City for at least a long time." "Luckily we escaped in time. We first waited until dark at the land temple where we had lived for three years before. Then, we took advantage of the fact that the government troops had no time to defend the city wall tonight and quietly climbed over the city wall and escaped. Then we came directly here." He gave Wei Jinfan and the others a brief explanation of the causes and consequences of the incident. "It has come to this, what can we do about it?"
"Wei Jinfan, you guys continue to be on guard here. Xiangzi and I will go in first and meet Xiao Douya and the others first." After saying that, Li Dingguo led the team members along the rugged mountain path and soon entered the valley. "Wow! So many people!" "I just heard what the boss said, but I didn't think much of it. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I can't believe it!" "Our life will be so interesting with so many brothers and sisters in the future!" "The order here is in good order, and it looks much better than the original rebel army!"... Everyone looked around the small valley and saw that the valley was brightly lit and crowded with people, and it was very lively. Several large circles of wooden sheds have been built in the valley and on the hills on the side. They are large in scale but very neat and orderly. These large wooden sheds are arranged very logically, without even a hint of disorder. In the middle of the valley, a large square was built, which is now crowded with people. At this time, there were about 1,500 young men and women practicing Tiger Roar Fist in the big square. They were lined up in teams of 150 men each, with ten teams arranged in neat rows. The sounds of their breathing and chanting echoed in the valley as they practiced each move. In the middle of the big square, on a platform several meters high, Hongmei and Xiaodouya stood with their hands behind their backs, supervising and teaching the orphans to practice the Tiger Roar Fist. As there were too many orphan beggars gathered, it was inconvenient to provide individual training. Hongmei discussed with Xiao Douya and Wang Qiang and decided to group 1,500 people into batches for centralized training on how to become warriors. Different from the warrior selection adopted by the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong, the warrior selection here did not give up on anyone and gave a chance to all orphans who came to this valley, regardless of gender. In this way, we will not miss any young boy or girl who is qualified to break through and become a warrior, and we can select warriors to the greatest extent possible in order to maximize benefits. Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiao Douya, who were once orphans and beggars, knew very well how much these people wanted to change their destiny. Although most people here are timid and cowardly now, it is because their previous status and position were too humble. Once this type of people become warriors and have the opportunity to change their destiny, they will be even more fanatical than some daring people. Compared with Zhang Xianzhong, Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiao Douya thought more long-term and would not miss any genius among them. In this end-of-dynasty era, without a strong team to back you up, it would be difficult to survive even if you were a Qi Refining master. Even a great master like Cao Bianjiao would be killed if facing a powerful Tartar army that formed a military killing formation to attack, and the probability of his death was very high. After several discussions with Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiaodouya have formulated and promulgated relatively complete rules and regulations in order to formalize their own forces as soon as possible. Li Dingguo has always believed that people have seven emotions and six desires, and it is impossible to manage a team simply by relying on self-awareness or making big promises. Only by formulating reasonable rules and regulations with strict rewards and punishments, and setting an example by ourselves, and having everyone from top to bottom strictly abide by and implement them, can we prevent all future chaos to the greatest extent possible. This new team of theirs must formulate a series of rules and regulations suitable for long-term development from the very beginning of its formation. In the future, they will not change their rules every day, but will only continue to improve and supplement them. Li Dingguo had lived two lives and was well aware of the huge harm of changing various rules and regulations every day. Once any rules and regulations that affected the general public were implemented, the larger the scope of involvement, the more difficult it would be to change them. Otherwise, it will gradually lose its credibility, which will greatly disrupt internal order and lose the hearts of the people.
No matter how powerful a team is, once it loses its credibility and the hearts of the people, it will be not far from destruction. This is the law of historical development and cannot be changed by human will. Any rules and systems in a booming force must be repeatedly discussed before they can be formally implemented. If one only focuses on the present and lacks foresight, he or she will not be able to manage a large force at all, let alone develop it in a healthy way. The power of those in power to do whatever they want, no matter how powerful it is at present, is destined to disappear quickly and be eliminated and submerged by the torrent of history. The existing rules and regulations that Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiao Douya have agreed upon are all very strict, not only considering the present but also the future. This is the real century-long plan. It is not because you are in a high position and have great power, and you can't achieve long-term success by talking nonsense, getting hot-headed, and casually promulgating some rules and regulations. "Big brother!" The little bean sprout standing on the high platform had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Li Dingguo who had suddenly arrived. He cheered immediately, jumped down from the platform and ran towards this side. Behind her followed two furry, half-grown dogs. After more than twenty days of careful feeding, these two top-quality spirit dogs grew at a rapid rate. With adequate nutritional intake, they weigh about twenty pounds and can run around with Xiao Douya and stay inseparable from her. Although the two half-grown dogs are not yet capable of guarding the house, they are not harmless puppies. Judging from the aura they are emitting now, they have reached the early stage of the second-level spirit beast, which is enough to bite to death most of the first-level monsters or the first-level martial artists. Their speed now is not slower than that of the bean sprouts running at full speed, and they are more flexible. "Brother Dingguo?" Hongmei soon discovered Li Dingguo, Cao Yongxiang and others, and followed closely behind Xiaodouya, leaping over. In just a few blinks of an eye, the two of them came in front of Li Dingguo with blushing faces. "Woooo..." Seeing their master coming, the two top-quality spirit dogs were extremely happy. They rushed to Li Dingguo's side, jumping around him and looking very excited. "Ha ha……" Li Dingguo put the spiritual weapon spear aside, stroked the heads of the two spiritual dogs with one hand each, and said with a smile, "Da Huang, Xiao Huang, you two have grown too fast in the past few days, almost changing every day." "In another month or two, I wouldn't be surprised if you guys weigh 100 to 180 kilograms." When high-quality spiritual beasts grow up, their size will not be small. Even spirit dogs are much larger than ordinary dogs, weighing at least two or three hundred kilograms. At that time, even Li Dingguo would be knocked to the ground by them if he was not careful. "Brother, I feed Da Huang and Xiao Huang well every day. In recent days, I feed them with Level 2 spiritual rice porridge and Level 2 monster meat!"
She looked up at Li Dingguo's little face, which was full of an expression that said, "Come and praise me." "Little Bean Sprout, you put your heart into it." Li Dingguo looked at the girl with approval, praising her generously and sincerely. These two top-grade spirit dogs will be of great help to me in the future. Even if it consumes a lot of resources, I must train them as soon as possible. When they grow up and become fourth-level spirit beasts, not only will their team be much safer where they are stationed. When our team is on a long expedition, with their vigilance, we can basically prevent ourselves from being ambushed by the enemy. This kind of invisible great gain cannot be compensated by any amount of cultivation resources. "Brother Dingguo, Xiangzi, why did you bring people here at night today?" "Could it be..." With Hongmei's terrific intelligence, she immediately realized something as soon as the words came out of her mouth, and stared at Li Dingguo. "This is what happened..." Li Dingguo repeated to Hongmei and Xiaodouya what he had said to Wei Jinfan before, and then said, "A blessing in disguise." "For our team, this disaster may be an opportunity for us to rise quickly!" "Cao Wenzhao's elite cavalry, and even Hong Chengchou's army that will arrive in Dingbian City in a few days, are destined not to stay in Dingbian City for long." "They will soon leave the Dingbian City area and advance towards the important town of Shenmu in the northeast to deal with Ma Jinzhong, who led 100,000 people. Then they will enter Jin Province in order to destroy the rebel alliance established by Wang Jiayin!" "Once the main forces of the Yansui Town soldiers leave, there will be a long vacuum period for the entire Yansui Town government's military strength." "As a new force, we can initiate the plan that has been agreed upon and take advantage of the opportunity to grow and develop." After several discussions with Hongmei, Li Dingguo had a complete plan for his newly formed team. He didn't want to be like those chaotic rebel armies, being chased by government troops for years and running around. For a long period of time, I wasted my time and accomplished nothing. Since he could not survive in the troubled times, he would let this new force he created grow rapidly. Until it becomes a truly powerful army that no one dares to provoke. (End of this chapter)
