Chapter 639: Special Forces

~8 min read 1,490 words

This moment.

Many people exclaimed in shock at the same time!

These Barbarians actually made a move!

A general on the city wall, holding a "Telescope" produced in Liangzhou, saw this scene and cursed angrily: "These Barbarians are completely shameless!"

Liu Zheng and the two others had their expressions change simultaneously.

Eight arrows flew over at high speed.

The mere sound of them piercing the air was deafening and ear-piercing, showing just how fast and powerful these incoming arrows were!

And these eight arrows were all aimed at the Horse Carriage at the same time.

They were aimed directly at the two people inside the carriage!

Especially Liu Zheng!

The air.

Froze in this instant.

Too fast!

These cold arrows came too fast and too suddenly!

Many people's faces changed drastically.

If anything happened to the Prefect Liu, they would all have to die with him!

However, the group of soldiers following them had absolutely no Method to intercept them! These few arrows seemed to represent the invincible military might of the Grassland Barbarians!

"Prefect Liu, watch out!"

"Watch out!"

These Barbarians truly do not play by the rules!

Could it be that Prefect Liu is really going to die here?

"Zhebie, what are you doing!"

Over there, Temujin's expression also changed greatly, and he shouted angrily.

Zhebie feigned a look of horror: "Great Khan, it must be those brats who lost their sense of proportion during training, this, this, this..."

Temujin roared: "I'll deal with you later!"

However, no matter what, there was no Method at this moment.

Temujin frowned deeply; could it be that he really had to tear off the mask with the Longyan Dynasty here?

He knew that the archery skills of the brats under his command were astonishing; once they caught the unsuspecting off guard, these frail Han people would have almost no way to resist!

Was he really going to die?

Once an attack from these eight angles arrived, almost no one could survive!

Temujin felt extremely conflicted inside.

However, just at this moment.

Only to hear Pei Qianyun give a fierce shout, and then, a scene appeared that instantly stunned these Grassland Barbarians.

"Sending a friend a thousand miles, we must eventually part! Huobu, let us meet again in Liangzhou another day!"

Chuan-Shu Ancient Road.

Qin Zhangfeng and Pei Yanran were saying goodbye to Huobu Quli once again.

Yes.

After staying in Liangshan for so long, they should also leave this place and return to Liangzhou.

During this period, the reconstruction of the Wangbei Academy was basically completed. In addition, one hundred thousand slaves from the Western Ocean also began to be dispersed throughout Liangshan. Rhodes even found quite a few talents from the Western Ocean among these people. He inquired a bit and only then learned that this was the period of the Glorious Revolution in Britain. It was a non-violent coup launched by the bourgeoisie and the New Aristocracy of Britain to overthrow the rule of James II and prevent the restoration of Catholicism. This also led to a large number of Catholic believers like Rhodes, who had been devout to Jesus since childhood, fleeing Britain to find the "doctrine" in their hearts; the outcome of doing so naturally had only one end.

On the ocean, there is no Jesus, only wind, rain, and pirates.

Thus, they were treated as slaves and sold to Longyan.

These talents were exactly what Rhodes needed. Therefore, when Qin Zhangfeng was happily informed by Rhodes that the Scientific Research Laboratory the young master wanted could be officially established, Qin Zhangfeng then began to pack his belongings, intending to leave.

Huobu Quli was on his horse, very reluctant to part.

These people were here to build Liangshan, and he could feel the young master's attitude toward Liangshan, which was completely different from that toward the Southern Barbarian Lands!

His heart was naturally very moved.

"Good! When you arrive in Liangzhou, you must prepare good wine for me!"

Huobu laughed heartily.

Qin Zhangfeng also laughed: "We can have nothing else, but fine wine cannot be missing!"

"Let's go, brothers, heading home!"

"Heading home!"

This time, following Qin Zhangfeng were also those veteran soldiers who were retiring; counting it up, they had already stayed in Liangshan for three or four months. Returning this time, what awaited them was work rearranged after retirement, far from the battlefield, and their wives and children waiting for them at home.

"Move out!"

Three thousand veterans surrounded the general and the general's wife.

"Sharpening swords in the Gobi desert!"

"Sharpening swords in the Gobi desert!"

"Vigorously dancing the heroic spirit of the west!"

"Vigorously dancing the heroic spirit of the west!"

"The battlefield is full of the elegance of ordering troops!"

"Looking down at the sky with a heart to serve the country!"

"Forward!"

"Advance!"

"Advance, advance!"

"We are the invincible Long Tassel of the Desert!"

The majestic and imposing Liangzhou Army song echoed through the air.

Passersby stepped aside one after another, filled with envy.

……

After arranging matters in Liangzhou, Jiang Xuan traveled without pause to Yintan City.

"Jiang Xuan, greetings to you, sir!"

Qing Yangshuo looked at Jiang Xuan and smiled with gratification: "Little Xuanzi has grown up too."

These words left Jiang Xuan looking embarrassed, not knowing how to respond.

"Oh my, why have you gotten so dark? Let me take a look, little brother!"

Zheng Yue Ru, however, felt immense heartache.

Jiang Xuan laughed heartily: "Sister, for a soldier, how could I be so fair and tender! Do you really think everyone is a young master? He can be a scholar-general in white, but we can't!"

Zheng Yue Ru scolded him with a smile: "I think you tanned yourself on purpose, didn't you? Where is the sunscreen the young master gave you?"

Over the past few years, the bond between the two as siblings had grown deeper day by day. Zheng Yue Ru had no reservations with him and rubbed his head with heartache.

Jiang Xuan puffed out his chest and held his head high, feigning maturity: "Sister, I'm not small anymore; I'm already a grown man!"

Qing Yangshuo and Zheng Yue Ru laughed incessantly.

"Sir, I have returned this time with a major mission!"

Jiang Xuan suddenly straightened his expression and said solemnly.

Qing Yangshuo narrowed his eyes: "What mission?"

Jiang Xuan did not avoid Zheng Yue Ru and smiled: "The young master sent me back to build an elite force!"

"Elite?"

Qing Yangshuo's eyes lit up.

Jiang Xuan nodded: "In the young master's words, it is a Special Forces unit!"

"Special Forces..."

Qing Yangshuo repeated the words a few times, then suddenly smiled: "Is the young master setting us another difficult problem? If I guess correctly, this so-called Special Forces will have higher requirements for Weaponry and Equipment, is that so or not?"

The three of them laughed heartily.

Following this, Jiang Xuan explained Liu Zheng's ideas.

The military downsizing work was still underway.

During this period, the Liangzhou Army had also entered a transitional phase of intensive training.

The number of usable soldiers was down to only two hundred thousand.

But Liu Zheng had always emphasized that the strength of an army lies in its quality, not its quantity.

This time!

The elite troops were coming!

The Special Forces must be equipped with the most elite and advanced weapons and the most advanced equipment. Moreover, Liu Zheng had also created a precise and rigorous training plan for them! Not only that, he had also assigned specialized nutritional physicians to this unit, responsible for observing their physical endurance and various limits, and supplementing them with sufficient energy and nutrition every day. They were to have complete, state-of-the-art logistical support.

Qing Yangshuo looked at the plan Jiang Xuan had brought back and was slightly moved: "A unit like this consumes an extraordinary amount of resources. How many men does the young master intend to build it with?"

"In the name of Dark Night, we will build three thousand!"

Jiang Xuan laughed: "To train one elite soldier to success requires at least one hundred gold!"

"What?"

Zheng Yue Ru was the Chief Manager and now the undisputed richest woman in Longyan; her expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

Good heavens!

One hundred gold!

You must know that one hundred gold could support one thousand soldiers for a year!

One hundred gold, three thousand men... that would be three hundred thousand gold?

This wasn't just robbing money; this was simply burning money!

Jiang Xuan chuckled: "Sister, that's just to train them to success; according to the young master's plan, the later maintenance is also quite expensive..."

"Pfft..."

Zheng Yue Ru's face darkened.

Good grief.

So you all are just biting your fingers without feeling the pain, right? Is making money easy? I scrape and save here and there, but I can't withstand you all shoveling it away!

"Sister..."

"Sister, what's wrong with you!"

"Sister, don't cry!"

"Get lost!"
