"Those damn fellows, despicable, shameless bastards!" Mo De's face flushed red with anger. Strands of Origin Energy shot out from his body, forming small vortexes of Origin Energy in the space. After a while, he calmed his anger and slowly withdrew the Origin Energy that had penetrated his body. He grabbed Mo Gu's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, brother. I will definitely avenge you. Now, hey, you go rest first. "
Mogu grabbed the baron's arm and said, "Don't underestimate them. Sur City must have some ulterior motives for asking us for so many weapons and equipment. "
"Plot? Could it be that they dare to attack with their little strength? " Mo De sneered, "Give me another month. When the army is rested and the recruits have completed their initial run-in, I will let those country bumpkins in Sur City know how powerful they are."
"Alright, I believe in your judgment. Now that I am no longer the leader of the Knight Regiment, you can let Legg take my place. Of my captains, Legg is the most qualified candidate to replace me. "
"I understand. I will take care of this matter. Don't worry."
Only then did Mo Gu leave.
After he left, Mo De was the only one left in the study. The Baron suddenly kicked the desk. The desk broke into pieces and everything fell to the ground. Mo De gasped for breath and said hatefully, "Damn it, a large ransom actually gave me a cripple!"
Mo Gu naturally did not hear what he said.
Why? In order not to affect the morale of the army, Mo De announced that Legg would temporarily take over the position of Guild Leader of the Knight Regiment because Mo Gu was temporarily recuperating from his injuries. This decision attracted more or less speculation, but it was not enough to cause a huge uproar. A week after Mo Gu's return, the recruited recruits finished their training and were brought back to Storm City to be scattered into the two legions. They began to train with the veterans in order to complete the run-in stage as soon as possible.
Just as Storm City was about to launch a counterattack to recover the humiliation of losing all his face. Sur City was also preparing to attack Storm City.
Allen arrived at the barracks early in the morning. In the barracks training ground, there were two groups of people training. One group was led by Regis and Belmond as instructors. They selected young men with good potential from the recruits for intensive training. The selected young warriors were all people who specialized in speed and explosion. Regis instructed them in swordsmanship, while Belmond taught them concealment, tracking, and assassination.
There weren't many people in this group, only ten. They would form a special team that would specialize in mobile guerrilla warfare and assassination. This team had been officially named "Dark Moon Blade". It was conceivable that when this Dark Moon Blade team was formed and strengthened, they would be the Grim Reaper on the battlefield.
The other group was the King Of The Mountains. The King Of The Mountains Army was originally made up of pure Baymond people. Ten of them stayed in Purple Roland Harbor. This time, Broy picked out another twenty people from the city guards and mixed them with the previous Baymonds to train together. Those who were chosen were all warriors with strong physiques and great endurance. Now that Storm City provided fine iron, the blacksmiths in the city would soon be able to make a batch of qualified warhammers for their use.
The two troops had their own characteristics. They occupied both sides of the training ground. Everyone was fully focused and did every movement with all their might. This was because they knew that the more standard their movements were during training, the more likely they would be to survive on the battlefield.
Allen circled the training ground and was very satisfied with the two troops. These could be considered the two official special squads since the establishment of the hunting squad. As for the Blazing Battle Soldiers brought from the clan, they were handed over to Lucy and Adele. In this way, the military power in Allen's hands was gradually becoming more and more obvious.
The Mountain King, who was in charge of attacking, the Dark Moon Blade, who specialized in guerrilla warfare and assassination, and the Blazing Battle Soldiers, who were in charge of long-range firepower support. From these three squads, it could already be seen that there was a clear division of labor, each of them performing their own duties and cooperating with each other. Of course, according to Lucy's previous plan, there was still a lack of commandos that could pierce through, as well as elite combat strength that was only responsible to Allen.
These things would have to be slowly supplemented in the future.
"Young Master Allen." City Defense Captain Matto walked out of his office and shouted to Allen on the training ground, "Lord Edward is looking for you. He wants to invite you to the City Lord's Mansion."
"I see." Allen said.
He rode a warhorse from the camp and left. A few minutes later, Allen arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. After handing the horse over to the servant, Allen went to the study alone. There was a model on Edward's desk. It was a tactical sand table. It couldn't be said to be exquisite, but at least it showed the location of Storm City and several towns in the territory, making it convenient for Allen to carry out tactical deductions.
Seeing Allen come in, Edward raised his head and said, "There will be a hundred-man mercenary group from the Adventurers Association this afternoon." That's the best team they can find. I've already been given the list to me in advance. The leader of the mercenary group, Hansen, is a Level 15 Knight. There are twenty core members, with an average level of around Level 8. The others are ordinary warriors, but they are all experienced fellows. "
"Sounds good." Allen said.
"But there's still a gap between our troops and Storm City's, so how are you going to fight this battle?" Edward frowned.
Allen smiled. "Time difference."
Edward shrugged and said, "Alright, it's good that you're confident. Anyway, I'm not good at this kind of thing. I can only manage internal affairs for you."
"That's already helped a lot." Allen walked to the window and looked at the world outside. "After taking down Storm City, we can almost leave the border. I will be in charge of continuing to explore outwards in order to obtain more territory and manpower. As for our rear base, it will be up to you to take care of it. "
Edward nodded and said, "I will find and train some outstanding managers. After all, I can't do it alone."
In the afternoon, a team arrived at Sur City. It was the Rangers, a mercenary group that the Adventurers Association had found for Allen. The leader of the Rangers, Hansen, was sitting on a Blood Rock Lizard, a giant lizard the size of a warhorse. His entire body was covered in dark red scales, and there were black spikes on his head and tail. Hansen sat on top of a seat tightly tied to his back, and there was a spear and an axe on both sides.
Behind this rather distinctive mount was a Horse Team. There were cavalry and carriages in the Horse Team. As for the Rangers, the weapons and equipment they carried also had their own characteristics. Apart from the common standard equipment such as guns and swords, there were also tower shields that were as tall as a person, two-meter-long sabers, or dragon spears that were used to fight against cavalry.
Although there weren't many humans in the Rangers, judging from their equipment, they could tell that they had a meticulous division of labor. Once they cooperated in battle, they would be able to display tremendous combat strength on a local battlefield.
Since the hotels in Sur City were limited and could not accommodate the entire mercenary group, Edward simply sent them to the barracks of the city guards. The mercenaries had no objections. Not to mention the barracks, they could even sleep in the trenches when they needed it. These were all fellows who could truly fight. For mercenary groups like this, they accepted a wide range of tasks. Most of them were hired by various noble forces to participate in the capture of territories.
In the barracks, they saw the soldiers of the city guards who were training. The Rangers' warriors all had smiling expressions on their faces. In their eyes, the soldiers of Sur City were very ordinary. However, when they saw the training of the Dark Moon Blade, the smiles on the mercenaries' faces gradually disappeared. The Dark Moon Blade's swordsmanship was simple and neat. There were no unnecessary movements, and every strike went straight for the vital points. This could be seen from the traces of swords piercing through the chests and throats of the puppets that were used as practice puppets.
When they saw the training of the King Of Mountains troops, even Hansen couldn't help but stop and observe. Under Broy's arrangements, the King Of Mountains troops were divided into two groups to fight against each other. Each group consisted of three people to form a combat unit. When defending, he was as steady as a rock, and when attacking, he was unstoppable. Especially the warriors of the King Of Mountains, each of them had a fine iron warhammer in their hands. Coupled with their strong physique and astonishing arm strength, the howl of the warhammer piercing through the air was like muffled thunder, causing the hearts of the mercenaries to palpitate.
Especially those warriors with tower shields, they couldn't help but imagine fighting against the King Of Mountains. Then they discovered that the ten tower shield soldiers on their side could not withstand a round of berserk attacks from this squad.
"Guild Leader Hansen."
Hansen came back to his senses and saw a silver youth in front of him. The eye-catching silver head immediately let Hansen know the identity of the other party. He jumped off the lizard and stretched out his hand. "Nice to meet you, Sir Allen," he said.
"You've worked hard from afar." Allen saw that they were sizing up his two teams and said, "The Rangers have a lot of combat experience. Our army has just been established. There are many aspects that we would like to consult your group on."
Hansen laughed and said, "Your Excellency, you are being modest. Your two teams have their own strengths. If we were to make an enemy of such a warrior, we would also have a headache. "
"Thank you, Guild Leader Hansen. Please follow me. The space is limited, please forgive me. "
After arranging the Rangers' residences, Allen invited Hansen and the other core members of the hunting squad to the City Lord's Mansion. In Edward's study, everyone held a battle meeting. After discussion and consultation, a plan to attack Storm City was decided.
Two days later, Allen left with a team. The team included experts like Regis, Broy, and Belmore, as well as members of the King Of Mountains and Dark Blade squads. After they left, the atmosphere in the forest where Bai resided was not as oppressive as before, all because the Black Twilight King Snake had also quietly left. Bai moved alone, moving in the direction of Storm City with Allen's team.
