Six hundred and ninetieth chapter crab(1/2)
"Brother, let us follow you from now on!"
"Follow you to conquer the world, be energetic!"
"Yes, from now on you will be our boss, and you can do whatever you say!"
Since that night, the dandies and little girls who originally followed Queen Roadhog have asked to join Chen Xing's expeditionary force.
Although these motorcycle gangs are all marginal figures in the family, they are also the children of powerful people who have received aristocratic education since childhood. As the saying goes, there are three nails in a broken ship, and a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, but their abilities are still much stronger than ordinary people.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reading recently to catch up on books, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available. 】
This is also the reason why Ye Yang Qingyan integrated this force. It was not just a hobby of racing, but also a consideration of profit.
What Chen Xing lacks most now is manpower. Naturally, he accepts all comers. What's more, although these people seem cynical and unreliable, their physical fitness and combat effectiveness are there. As long as they are well trained, they can be a powerful force.
strength.
Chen Xing then formed a motorized rapid combat force based on these people at the suggestion of Ye Yang Qingyan.
All members of this unit drive cruise motorcycles and use their excellent mobility to enter the battlefield and perform raids, support and other tasks. As for investigation, a major matter related to the life and death of the legion, Chen Xing still leaves it to the master group. This group of second-rate idiots are too
I was wandering around and couldn't carry out any important tasks.
After that, it was calm for a while.
The expeditionary force has begun to take shape, but it is only beginning to take shape. After using up the human resources on hand, subsequent recruitment will become increasingly difficult.
The main components of the current expeditionary force are the regular combat troops of the original North Bridge Regiment, the remaining personnel of the Thunder Light Regiment and the Master Regiment, the military police transferred from the Gray Corner City Family Force, and a dozen people from the Northern Wilderness Edge Town who have friendship with the Hanged Skull Alliance.
Troops, troops extorted from the dignitaries of Lizard City, the motorcycle gang led by Ye Yang Qingyan.
Their total number is less than 20,000, which is only the first step towards the expeditionary force's establishment of 100,000.
But the second step is extremely difficult and difficult.
There are many trees on the hills of the Lizard City, and they have formed a fixed circle for thousands of years, which is not something that an outsider can easily break.
Unless you are a king-level powerhouse like Aaliyah, who is powerful enough to ignore most of the social rules and defeat ten guilds with one force to break the situation.
Obviously Chen Xing does not have this ability, and Aaliyah cannot completely ignore the feelings of other subordinates and force them to cooperate with Chen Xing. If she really wants to do this, it will be to force the mud up the wall, which will not only cause widespread dissatisfaction, but also
It will also make Chen Xing's subsequent work more difficult to carry out, which can be said to be meaningless.
While Chen Xing was worried about the next step of recruitment, in a side hall of the Red Castle of Dragon City, the Alluring Princess Lacey Maris was meeting with her eldest brother, Gavin, the first heir to the Red Dragon Principality.
Maris got together. Also attending the party were several young talents who were quite famous in the aristocratic circles of the Northern Alliance, including Ricardo, the "eagle owl on the shoulders of the dragon".
"I have to say that this rural nobleman who was born as a mercenary is really surprising. In such a big environment, he was able to get 20,000 people by deception. It really shouldn't be underestimated."
"But his limit has only reached this point. If he goes further, he probably won't be able to recruit even one person."
"You know, the sky in the Lizard City always belongs to the red dragon."
A young noble held a glass of wine and chatted. His tone was frivolous, and he was very disdainful of the rising star commander of the expeditionary force.
"I always feel that a group of lions bullying a little hamster is a bit of a fuss." Gavin Maris's expression was a bit lazy and casual, and he seemed to be not very interested.
"I don't know why, but this guy reminds me of a crab that was run over by a wheel." A young nobleman joked.
"That must be the freshwater lake crab in autumn." Another young noble added, which immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Autumn is the reproductive period of crabs, and a lot of "crab paste" will accumulate in the body. Once it is crushed, it will flow red, yellow, white and green all over the ground.
"Gentlemen, now is not the time to relax!" Lacey said in a cold tone, "As long as he doesn't get out of our sight for a day, there can't be any negligence."
"Only his body is the safest." She concluded.
The young talents wisely kept their mouths shut, and only the least-eyed guy would oppose Princess Qingcheng's opinion in person.
In terms of talent, knowledge, and strength, Lacey Maris is undoubtedly the leader of the younger generation in Ambergris River. She was promoted to the Holy Realm at a young age, won the favor of the secondary false god Manticore, and has extremely high military talent.
, Machiavellian strategy, proficient in everything.
Coupled with her stunning appearance, most men would not dare to speak when they see her.
However, there was someone present who ignored all this.
"My dear sister, why have you become so timid?" Gavin Maris mocked, "Now you are like a little girl who is frightened by cockroaches."
"Gavin Maris, I don't want to argue with you now." Lacey said with a cold face, "Please remember, that is our common enemy." She emphasized, "The Maris family's common enemy."
"Okay, okay..." Gavin Maris shrugged in resignation, "It's all up to you, my dear sister."
"But..." The Red Dragon Prince paused, "I really can't think of anything else that person can do."
"It is impossible for any nobles in the country to respond to him. We have also reached an agreement with the Gray Horn City family not to send additional soldiers."
"And the military budget of the expeditionary force is not enough for him to hire an outside mercenary group."
"It seems to me that he is at the end of his rope," said Gavin Maris, and then he turned back to Ricardo and said, "Am I right, my dearest friend?"
All eyes are on this young military genius. If there is something worth pondering besides Lacey, then the other one is him.
Ricardo put down the wine glass in his hand, thought seriously for a while, and said, "I think so too. Unless there is a miracle, I can't think of any way to make him conjure the remaining 80,000 people."
"Even if it were me, in his environment, I would be helpless."
Lacey nodded and admitted, "That's true. Even if it were me, I wouldn't be able to think of a solution."
"That's right!" Gavin Maris put one hand on Lacey's shoulder and the other on Ricardo's shoulder, "Not even the two smartest and wisest geniuses in our Lizard City can think of a way.
, what kind of waves can a country nobleman with a mercenary background make?"
He smiled slightly and said, "As far as I know, crabs can't swim."
"Hahaha!"
Gavin Maris' words made the scene lively again, with bursts of laughter.
At this time, Chen Xing was still thinking sadly in the military tent in Beiqiao Town.
The current situation is that the nobles of the Red Dragon Principality seem to have reached some kind of agreement and are avoiding him.
There was no one to apply for conscription through conventional channels, so the situation was very difficult.
If an expeditionary force cannot recruit men, it will become a joke. With only 20,000 people, it cannot even fight a decent battle.
"Lord Commander, there is a group of mercenaries outside asking to see you."
While he was thinking, the messenger came in to report.
"Let them in."
Chen Xing put away his thoughts and met the visitor. There was no point in rushing about this kind of thing. He could only take his time and find a solution.
If there is no other way, you can only stand by and wait for the opportunity to appear.
"Sir, do you still remember me?" A mercenary in his thirties walked in, smiling broadly and extending his hand.
"Wu Erxiong!"
Chen Xing's eyes lit up and he stepped forward to hold the other person's hand. This Wu Erxiong was the Red Nation mercenary he met when he was adventuring in the Goddess Plane of the Green Continent, the leader of the Bear Hug Group, and his hometown was near the Stinky Water Lake.
"I heard that your Excellency has become the commander-in-chief, so I shamelessly brought my brothers here to beg for food. I hope that Your Excellency will not dislike us." Wu Erxiong said with a smile.
"Great!" Just when he was worried that there was no one around, an old friend suddenly came to join him, which made Chen Xing unhappy.
"I also brought a friend here." Wu Erxiong whistled, and a silly-looking mercenary in his thirties ran in.
"Zeng Daming!"
Chen Xing immediately called out the other person's name. He was also someone he met in the goddess plane of Greenland.
"Hehehehe, it's me!" Zeng Daming touched his head and said, "After I left last time, Erxiong and I got in touch, and we often drank together when nothing happened. I found out in the news that day that you had become the commander-in-chief.
, I just want to come over and join you."
Zeng Daming rubbed his hands and said, "If the boss doesn't mind, just bring some brothers with you."
"What are you talking about? It's too late for me to be happy that you can come!" Chen Xing grabbed Zeng Daming's shoulders hard and felt a little excited. They just met by chance, but they didn't expect that the other party would always remember him and would remember him whenever he had the chance.
Come and flee.
At this moment, the messenger ran in again.
"Lord Commander, there is a man outside who claims to be a veteran of the Hexi Regiment asking to see him."
One wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen.
"A veteran of the Hexi Regiment?" Chen Xing frowned slightly. He didn't have a very good impression of the Hexi Regiment, but the other party claimed to be a veteran and was obviously not the leader of the Hexi Regiment.
"Invite him in."
Not long after, a skinny middle-aged mercenary opened the curtain and walked in. He was hunched over and estimated to be about forty or fifty years old.
"It's you!" Chen Xing said in surprise.
He knew this mercenary. He was the logistics soldier of the Hexi Regiment whom he met on the way to support Tie Nuo.
"Sir, you still remember me!" The veteran was both happy and a little surprised, "I didn't expect that you still remember me. I'm just a little person. I thought you had forgotten me a long time ago."
"Don't say that. Without your guidance, we might not be able to find our teammates," Chen Xing said.
When he mentioned his old friend, the veteran looked a little gloomy, "We have all heard about Captain Tienuo..."
