Now that the Spirit Gathering Formation had been upgraded, the disciples could quickly break through.
Next, what he needed to do was to fill up all the members and trigger a real sect mission to improve the sect.
"But …"
Jun Changxiao murmured, "With the recent frequent recruitment, it will be very difficult to recruit a youth with good aptitude in Azure Sun County."
The System said, "Doesn't the host like challenges? If you recruit the lowest aptitude, you will definitely be able to fill it up quickly. "
"Get lost." Jun Changxiao said.
In the past, he liked challenges and nurtured low-grade youths.
However, the key was that he couldn't recruit anyone at that time, so he could only choose low-grade ones.
Now, it was different.
The sect had enough prestige, and its rank had increased from seventh-rate to sixth-rate.
Moreover, disciples like Li Fei and Tian Qi had been nurtured into talents, which was enough to prove that he had the ability to turn something rotten into something magical.
Therefore, the future disciples would definitely have to have a high requirement for spirit roots.
Developing a sect was not like opening a welfare institute. Martial cultivators with higher aptitudes would naturally be nurtured faster than those with lower aptitudes.
The System said, "Host, you are now as arrogant as you were when we met in the martial world."
"Arrogant your sister."
Jun Changxiao cursed. He held his chin and said, "You can recruit from other counties."
The System said, "It's fine for cultivators from other counties to join Iron Bone, but if the host recruits from other counties, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble."
Jun Changxiao was silent.
There were many people in the Falling Star Continent, but there were only a few talents.
Going to other people's territory to recruit disciples was indeed no different from going to cause trouble.
"Damn it."
Jun Changxiao collapsed. "Do we really have to recruit low-grade youths and rely on various resources to slowly improve?"
"Sect Master."
At this moment, Li Qingyang walked into the main hall and said, "Thank you for your visit, City Lord."
"Please." Jun Changxiao said.
… …
In the main hall.
Xie Guangkun sat down and said with a worried expression, "Sect Master Jun, the thing that I have been worried about is finally coming!"
"What is it?" Jun Changxiao asked.
Xie Guangkun took out a letter and said, "This is the letter of persuasion sent by the True Yang County Chief yesterday."
"Oh?"
Jun Changxiao took it and opened the envelope.
The general idea was for Qingyang City to surrender. Otherwise, the city would be besieged soon.
"Hehe."
Jun Changxiao said, "So open and aboveboard?"
Xie Guangkun sighed and said, "According to this Xie's information, Zhenyang County's 200,000 strong army has split into two groups and is heading towards Huayang County and Heyang County."
"If the two counties are breached, wouldn't our Azure Sun County be sandwiched?" Jun Changxiao said.
"That's right." Xie Guangkun said.
Jun Changxiao rubbed his chin and said, "This Zhenyang County's County Chief is truly an ambitious and ruthless person."
Xie Guangkun continued, "The True Sun County has sent two hundred thousand soldiers this time. The White Tiger Legion led by General Bai Ruihu not only has a high cultivation, but they are also well-equipped. They are the elites of the elites. If they come, our Azure Sun County will be in danger."
"How long will it take for them to get here?" Jun Changxiao asked.
Xie Guangkun said, "If Huayang County and Heyang County choose to resist, it will take about a year and a half. If they choose to surrender, Zhenyang County's army will march straight in and reach Azure Sun County within a month."
"A month, huh?"
Jun Changxiao said, "Mayor Xie, how many soldiers does Azure Sun City have?"
"Fifty thousand." Xie Guangkun said.
Azure Sun City had a population of three million six hundred thousand. However, those who were qualified to enter the battlefield were at least Martial Disciples. Therefore, there were not many of them.
Moreover, Zhenyang County had sent their elites. If ordinary first and second grade Martial Disciples were to enter the battlefield, it would be the same as sending them to their deaths.
Jun Changxiao frowned and said, "That's a bit too little."
He was not an expert in this kind of military matters. Therefore, he called Xue Rengui over and informed him of the situation. He asked, "Hall Master Xue, what do you think?"
Xue Rengui frowned and said, "This Zhenyang County's Bai Ruihu seems to be one of the top ten generals in Yangzhou."
"That's right." Xie Guangkun said.
Jun Changxiao was speechless.
Not only was it an elite army, but it was also one of the top ten generals.
Zhenyang County's invasion this time showed that they were determined to win.
Xue Rengui said, "Based on the current situation, we can only choose to defend to the death. As for how long we can defend, it depends on when the other party chooses to attack."
It was very pessimistic.
However, there was no other way.
The disparity in military strength and strength was too great. It was too difficult to contend against the elite army of Zhenyang County.
"Sigh."
Xie Guangkun let out a long sigh. His eyes were filled with determination as he said, "Even if I have to sacrifice every single one of my soldiers, I will defend Azure Sun City to the death!"
His home was not to be invaded!
Surrender? Only a coward would do such a thing!
… …
Xie Guangkun left. He had to prepare for the upcoming war. He had already made up his mind to live and die with Azure Sun City.
"Hall Master Xue."
Jun Changxiao said, "Is there no better way?"
Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "Sect Master, Azure Sun County is only a grade nine city. If we are targeted by a large county, we will only be exterminated."
The big fish would eat the small fish. This was an unchanging fact.
Jun Changxiao sat on the chair and supported his chin with his hands. He said with a firm gaze, "My Iron Bone is in Azure Sun City. Naturally, I cannot stand by and do nothing."
Xue Rengui said, "Sect Master, we are a powerful sect. We don't have to participate in the war."
"My Iron Bone disciples are mostly from Azure Sun City. This is their home and their loved ones. How can we watch as it is invaded by foreign enemies?"
Huaxia had experienced a hundred years of humiliation. Many men had shed their blood for their home. Although Jun Changxiao was born in a prosperous era, he knew that every man had a responsibility when his country was in trouble.
Now that he had transmigrated to another world, he was not only a man of Azure Sun City, but also a man of Huaxia. When his home was invaded, he would definitely share it and not choose to live an ignoble existence.
"Understood."
Xue Rengui said solemnly, "If Sect Master wants to defend Azure Sun City, I believe that we can expand the members of Wolf Rider Hall and form a cavalry division. We can catch them off guard and catch them off guard."
It was impossible to directly confront Zhenyang County's army. Therefore, they could only rely on their strengths.
A Wolf Rider Hall equipped with Hurricane Wolves was undoubtedly Iron Bone's strength. It was also the most suitable for killing enemies on the battlefield. As long as they had perfect coordination, it would not be a problem for them to fight one hundred enemies, let alone ten enemies.
In the era of cold weapons, the strongest army was definitely cavalry.
With a strong cavalry, they would definitely be successful.
In the past, the Mongol Empire had almost conquered Europe by relying on cavalry.
Although the Song Dynasty had a strong economy, they had lost the thirteen prefectures of Yanyun and did not have a suitable horse farm. They were unable to form a strong cavalry division and were suppressed by Liao, Xixia, Jin, and Mongolia.
Of course, this cavalry division mainly relied on horses.
Jun Changxiao's Wolf Rider Hall mainly relied on Hurricane Wolves. The two were not on the same level.
Xue Rengui was confident that as long as they had a certain number of members and went through strict training, they would be able to create a strong cavalry division.
Jun Changxiao said, "There are only about a thousand Hurricane Wolves. I can only equip Wolf Rider Hall with another five hundred disciples."
He had brought the Hurricane Wolves back to the sect in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to prepare for a rainy day. It was reasonable that they would be of use in today's war.
Xue Rengui thought for a while and said, "A cavalry division of a thousand people, as long as they are well trained, it will not be a problem to fight against an army of tens of thousands."
"What if they are equipped with excellent equipment?" Jun Changxiao asked.
Xue Rengui said, "Then they will be like a tiger that has grown wings!"
"I will gather the disciples. You go and pick five hundred."
Jun Changxiao added, "However, time is limited. They must be trained within a month."
Xue Rengui said confidently, "My sect's disciples have strong bodies and a good foundation. They will definitely train faster than ordinary men. Not to mention a month, half a month will be enough!"
