Chapter 14 Planning (Seeking Collection, Seeking Promotion)

  In the second war zone of Longhua City, a young man with a pale face lay on his bed in a huge tent. Several people wearing silver armor stood around the bed, and the most striking one was a man sitting in front of the bed wearing golden armor.

  "General, is that Counselor Zhang?"

  Qin Xiao Tian withdrew his hand from Zhang Hua Ming's pulse, a smile on his face: "You all don't have to worry, this kid is fine, he just got hurt again after forcing himself to use Wu Yuan, so the meridians were injured again. As long as he calms down and recuperates for a few months, he will recover."

  "Haha! As long as nothing's wrong, that's all that matters." Wang Xiong said with a delighted expression.

  Qin Xiao Tian saw the expression on Wang Xiong's face and felt a strange, no, jealous feeling in his heart. Three days ago, after Wang Xiong returned with Zhang Hua Ming, he made a bizarre request to Qin Xiao Tian: give up his position as a general and go serve under Zhang Hua Ming instead. What kind of position is that? It's the highest position under one person, but above all others! At any time, he could be promoted to become a general, yet this kid didn't want it and was willing to run to serve under Zhang Hua Ming instead? Moreover, he swore that even if he were just a lowly soldier, he would still do it. If Qin Xiao Tian hadn't been present at the time, he believed Wang Hu's three kids would have beaten up Zhang Hua Ming on the spot.

  When the three brothers, Wang Hu San, heard their fourth brother's words, they cast their eyes on him, and at this moment, they still couldn't understand where the charm of Zhang Hua Ming, the chief of staff, lay. He was able to make his fourth brother, a single muscle, give up his identity as a general and become a small soldier by his side. It was really incomprehensible. Not only that, but among the more than 500 people who returned this time, the soldiers were also in a similar state, and they all forgot their previous positions and units, calling themselves the chief of staff's guards, making the battalion commanders under the Wang Hu four brothers so angry that they almost vomited blood.

  Cough! Cough! A fit of coughing erupted, and Zhang Huaming, lying on the bed, opened his eyes.

  "Hey kiddo, how are you feeling?" Qin Xiao Tian quickly sat down beside the bed, his face full of concern as he asked.

  Zhang Huaming had just awakened from his coma, and for a moment, his mind was still unclear. After taking a few deep breaths, his brain returned to normal operation. When he saw that the person in front of him was Qin Xiaotian, he understood where he was now. It seemed that Wang Xiong had carried him on his back and escaped from the enemy's pursuit, returning to the headquarters of the Ferocious Tiger Squad, Longhua City.

  "It's okay, I won't die."

  Qin Xiao Tian heard Zhang Hua Ming's hoarse voice, and upon seeing his parched appearance, he immediately beckoned with his hand. Wang Hu, who was standing beside him, quickly handed over a bowl of clear water.

  Gulp! After Zhang Huaming downed a bowl of clear water in one breath, he felt much more spirited and hastily asked Wang Xiong: "Wang Biaojiang, are all the brothers safe?"

  Wang Xiong had not expected that his chief of staff's first words upon waking up would be to ask this question, and he was slightly taken aback for a moment before immediately responding: "Chief of Staff, over 500 people have returned."

  "Over 500 people?" Zhang Huaming's expression sank instantly upon hearing this number, and a hint of sadness appeared on his face.

  Qin Xiao Tian saw Zhang Hua Ming's expression and immediately knew what he was thinking. He comforted him, "Don't be sad, kid. The fact that over 500 people were able to return is already far beyond my expectations. This is war, there are always casualties. Cheer up and focus on recovering your health, I still have a score to settle with you."

  "Settle accounts?" Zhang Huaming was stunned when he heard this sentence.

  "What kind of trick did you use, kid? You actually made this mixed-up little guy give up his position and come under your command as a small soldier. And those more than 500 people who came back, every single one of them said they wanted to stay and be your soldiers too." Qin Xiao Tian laughed and scolded Zhang Hua Ming, who was still in a daze, but anyone with discerning eyes could tell that what he just said was just joking.

  "Ah!" Zhang Huaming was stunned by Qin Xiao Tian's words, his eyes drifting towards Wang Xiong who was grinning from ear to ear. He was no longer the same person he was when he first crossed over, he understood the concept of hierarchy in the military and didn't believe that just because he had released some aura, these people would all submit to him.

  Wang Xiong felt the inquiring gazes of the crowd, stretched out his palm and scratched the back of his head, laughing: "General, Chief of Staff, three brothers, I don't know why either, but I have a feeling that following Chief of Staff will make me stronger, even more powerful."

  Wang Hu's three older brothers heard their fourth brother's words and instantly rolled their eyes in silence. Is this a reason? To believe in that vague feeling? But their fourth brother actually did such a thing, betting his entire future on that vague feeling.

  Qin Xiao Tian was speechless upon hearing this answer, and he looked at Zhang Hua Ming who was lying on the bed with a pale face. How could he see that this kid, apart from having fairer skin and higher cultivation, had anything attractive about him? If one were to say what was attractive, it would be his handsome appearance, and if one were to say what was attractive, it would be attractive to girls! How could it possibly attract Wang Xiong, that mixed-up kid?!

  Zhang Huaming heard Wang Xiong's words, his heart slightly shook, and the gaze towards Wang Xiong had a hint of appreciation. In his mind, he secretly thought: "This little rascal's eyes are indeed venomous. Once I recover from my injuries, I won't mind teaching him a profound martial art."

  Wang Xiong never thought that this decision would become the starting point for him to stand at the pinnacle of the Martial Continent, and later also became one of the four great golden pillars under Zhang Huaming.

  "General, I didn't expect it to be like this..." Zhang Huaming said with an embarrassed expression on his face. After all, if things went on like this, the Tiger Corps would fall into chaos, and these results were exactly what he wanted. Although his face and tone showed embarrassment, in fact, he was secretly delighted.

  "Alright." Qin Xiao Tian casually waved his hand and said, "Don't underestimate the military discipline of the Hu Tiger Squad. Since this kid is willing to follow you, let him be. I will adjust the necessary positions from my Imperial Guard. You take good care of your injuries, I look forward to fighting alongside you again, and lead these kids well."

  "General, don't worry, I will take good care of these brothers."

  "Alright, we'll wait."

  A month later, Zhang Huaming's injury had recovered to about 70%, and he also began to organize the troops. In his month of recuperation, he had already outlined the path ahead and the training for the more than 500 people left behind. Since he wanted to cultivate his own men, he had to work hard again, and there were many martial arts secrets in his mind.

  In the early morning, in the second war zone at the foot of Longshan Mountain, more than 500 people were divided into five small teams and stood in a row. In front of them, on top of a giant stone, stood a young man.

  "Everyone, I'm saying it again. If anyone wants to quit now, there's still time. But once you start training, don't say I didn't warn you about the casualties."

  One second...

  Ten seconds...

  Thirty seconds passed, and the more than 500 people below still didn't have a single person retreat. Zhang Huaming saw this scene, and a relieved smile appeared on his face as he nodded and said: "Since none of you are retreating, then I'll say something about the rules below. Everyone must remember the contents inside. If one day you violate my rules, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will definitely kill you."

  "Article 1: Unconditional obedience to orders, remember, it is unconditional obedience, and obedience to the commands of one person only."

  "Article 2: Obey, obey, and obey."

  "Article 3: Those who engage in mutual slaughter shall be put to death without pardon."

  "Article 4: Whoever commits an act against morality shall be put to death without pardon."

  "Article 5..."

  "I'm giving you one last chance to reconsider, if you leave now it's still not too late." Zhang Huaming listed out ten rules, each with the three loud words "kill without pardon", he believed that the over 500 people in front of him would absolutely not think he was joking.

  Quiet, quiet, extremely quiet. Wang Xiong and more than 500 people all had a look of confusion on their faces, they felt that their chief of staff didn't seem like a military general, but rather like those who recruit disciples in the gate schools.

  "Chief of Staff, I have a question, I don't know if it's appropriate to ask or not?" Wang Xiong, this impatient man, couldn't help but blurt out the question.

  "Say."

  "I'd like to ask, can what the Chief of Staff said yesterday be done?"

  Zhang Huaming heard Wang Xiong's question and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, saying firmly: "I can do it."

  Wang Xiong heard this sentence, his eyes suddenly emitted a sharp light, and he immediately retreated.

  Zhang Huaming's eyes scanned over the more than 500 people in front of him one by one, and he said loudly: "Does anyone have any further questions?"

  "No!" More than 500 people responded in unison.

  "Alright, disperse now. Starting tomorrow, I will make you all stronger, but if anyone cannot withstand the training or bear my coaching during the training period, then I will also expel each and every one of you from the team." With that, Zhang Huaming waved his hand and left first.

  After Zhang Huaming left, he first went to Qin Xiao Tian's place and then went to the military supplies department of the Mop Tiger Team before returning to his own tent.
