Sword Conquers Heaven

The Divine Thunder Castle was facing its biggest crisis in the past hundred years, facing a tiger and wolf army that was three times stronger than itself. It seemed to be powerless. Although they had recruited a large number of strong men, their combat strength was weak. They could only barely help defend the city walls. They were the cannon fodder at the bottom.    

    

Fortunately, the military issued a recruitment order to recruit all the mercenaries in the country, which temporarily solved the military problem.    

    

Lei Kesi had a total of eighty thousand registered mercenaries. Apart from those who had participated in the defense at the eastern border, they could probably summon around sixty thousand people.    

    

Mercenaries were always on the brink of death. They were much more powerful than ordinary men. Although they were lacking in military discipline, their combat strength was definitely several times stronger than ordinary people.    

    

This time, all the mercenaries would form a special legion, called the Third Corp in Divine Thunder Castle.    

    

Over ten thousand mercenaries had already reported in these few days. The first batch that arrived had already been assigned, forming a new wave of combat strength.    

    

Qin Feng and Liu Dekuai found the sixth concentration camp, where the new batch of mercenaries gathered. This was a spacious house, enough to accommodate more than a hundred people. If they squeezed, it would not be a problem to fit 200 people.    

    

However, it was still considered spacious and empty. There were no more than 50 or 60 people inside.    

    

Qin Feng's arrival attracted quite a number of gazes. Immediately, bursts of laughter sounded.    

    

"Heh, isn't this the famous one who can run away quickly?"    

    

"Haha, it's true. Why did you bring a little brat along?"    

    

"You even brought a child with you when you participated in the battle. You're really talented. You won't be a deserter here, will you?"    

    

"Hahaha!"    

    

Laughter rang out continuously. It was obvious that this mister was very famous for "slipping away quickly." However, it was also true. It was difficult to not have a name for such a special name.    

    

Liu Dekuai did not care about the laughter. One hand reached into his shirt and grabbed his chest. The other hand grabbed the stubble and smiled.    

    

Qin Feng was already used to this. He turned a deaf ear to it and found an empty spot to sit down.    

    

Liu Dekuai laughed foolishly along the way. He did not return the smile. He waved at the people in the room and came to Qin Feng's side. He sat down on his butt.    

    

Qin Feng glanced at this strange big man and then closed his eyes to rest.    

    

Not long after, many mercenaries came. When there were more people, it became more and more noisy. Some of them were old friends or enemies. They could not help quarreling and almost started fighting.    

    

The room was noisy, but Qin Feng was calm and did not care about it. Liu Dekuai leaned against the wall and admired the noise in front of him. He had a smile on his face as if he enjoyed the scene.    

    

Night gradually fell, and more than a hundred people had gathered in the room. A soldier came in and invited everyone to have a meal.    

    

They squeezed out of the room and followed the soldier to an extremely wide open space. There were over a hundred large pots on the open space, and they were steaming.    

    

Seven or eight people surrounded a large pot and began to eat. Although the food was very ordinary, it was at least steaming hot. It was much better than the rations that mercenaries usually ate.    

    

After the meal, several soldiers gathered a group of mercenaries and began to teach the general knowledge of the army, especially military discipline.    

    

Since they were about to participate in the war, it was necessary to have some understanding of the situation in the army. Qin Feng listened carefully and remembered.    

    

There were strict ranks in the army, and the official positions were clearly defined.    

    

The five of them were in the same group, the officer was in the captain's group, the ten were in the captain's group, and the fifty were in the earl's group. The hundred of them were the centurions. Above the centurions were the garrison chiefs, who were in charge of five hundred people. Above the garrison chiefs were Curved Master. In charge of a thousand people. Next was the Junior Domain Chief. Above the Junior Domain Chief was the Grand Domain Chief. He was in charge of five thousand soldiers, and he was assisted by the Vice General.    

    

Above the Great General was the Commander and Vice Commander. The Commander was the leader of a military camp and could control the life and death of ten thousand people. In the past, Commander Xiao from the Feiyu Country Qin Feng met was a Vice Domain Chief.    

    

There were also many official positions above, but this time, the highest position that mercenaries could take was the vice commander-in-chief, so he did not say much.    

    

Usually, the positions above the garrison commander required a certain amount of Cultivation Level as the foundation. In the army, if you did not have enough Cultivation Level, you would at most stop at the centurion position.    

    

And for the group of mercenaries like Qin Feng, after they were assigned, they would also be assigned according to their strength. The requirements would be slightly higher than the average army.    

    

In addition to the organization of the army and the official position, as well as the military discipline, there was also a simple introduction of the missions that the mercenaries would be assigned in the future.    

    

There were mountains on both sides of Divine Thunder Castle as a natural barrier, but that was relative to ordinary soldiers. For the strong people in Cultivation Level, it was still possible to surpass them, especially the mercenaries who often appeared in the mountains and forests. Crossing over the mountains was not a difficult task. Therefore, apart from guarding the Divine Thunder Castle, they also needed to send a portion of their forces to spread out in the mountains on both sides of the mountain to be on guard. This could also effectively prevent spies from infiltrating.    

    

The Third Corp was built for this aspect. Mercenaries had rich experience in this aspect, and relatively speaking, they did not need much military cooperation. They could fight alone in the forest and maximize the advantages of mercenaries.    

    

Apart from being on guard in the mountains, the Third Corp would also carry out some special missions. They needed to have strong abilities as a foundation.    

    

The person who explained to Qin Feng and the others was an old earl. He had left the front line a long time ago, but was called back because of the emergency. He had a great understanding of military affairs and had told Qin Feng and the others many things related to it, which made Qin Feng and the others gain a lot.    

    

"Alright, that's all for today. You guys go back and have a good rest. I reckon there will be a distribution order tomorrow. At that time, it will be difficult for you guys to have a good rest. I hope that all of you can help us defend Divine Thunder Castle together. " The elder left, his back looking a little hunched.    

    

Qin Feng followed the crowd to the sixth concentration camp.    

    

It was late at night, and there was a wooden rack on both sides of the road. There was a brazier on the wooden rack, and the flames were emitting a bright light. Oil lamps were lit in the houses, and the streets were filled with light. There were very few of them. It was dark, and there were soldiers patrolling. It would be extremely difficult for spies to sneak in.    

    

The slovenly Liu Dekuai had always been by Qin Feng's side, and had even pulled a young mercenary in his twenties over. He spoke with confidence and confidence.    

    

The young mercenary's name was Xiao Ci, and he had come here alone. It was said that he had just become a mercenary for more than a month and had only accepted two of the simplest missions. He did not have much combat experience, but he did not expect to encounter a war here. He braced himself and joined the army. He seemed to be a little nervous, always submissive. He was pulled by Liu Dekuai and spat on his face, but he did not dodge nor wipe his face.    

    

Just as the three of them were about to reach the sixth concentration camp, a tall and burly figure walked past Qin Feng. When Qin Feng saw that person's face, he was pleasantly surprised and shouted at him, "Uncle Guo!"    

    

"En?" That person stopped to look at Qin Feng and instantly cried out in surprise," Young regiment leader! "    

    

This man was Aa Guo the Saboteur. He did not expect to meet him here.    

    

"Haha, young leader, you are still alive! This is great!" Aa Guo quickly walked over and hugged Qin Feng excitedly.    

    

He used a lot of strength in his excitement. Luckily, Qin Feng's body was extremely strong, otherwise, he would have been crushed by Qin Feng.    

    

"Uncle Guo, you have to lower your strength. My small body can't take it anymore!" Qin Feng joked.
