Chapter 1575: Hidden Strength
"To be honest, I didn't want to do this, breaking my principles for the sake of an ordinary sergeant's life, but I'm afraid it's even more difficult to repay the favor I owe you, so it's better to pay it back to you this time. Mi Wen said lightly, Ye Shikai never felt that a favor would be more important than a life, but Mi Wen was willing not to kill this sergeant, Ye Shikai was already satisfied.
"As for these black-clothed sergeants, they are not ordinary sergeants, but dead soldiers I recruited, last time in my barracks, I wanted to test your strength, but there was an accident, so this time, I want to test it again. The corners of Qi Wen's mouth rose slightly, and dozens of black-clothed people slowly stepped forward.
"Hey, you don't want to ......" Ye Shikai was faintly uneasy, and as he spoke, he was faintly ready to parry.
"As soon as we met, we had to fight. β
"That's it, don't worry, do it. β
"I'll go. β
Bang, bang.
In the blink of an eye, several dead soldiers with knives had rushed forward, Ye Shikai took out a metal sword from the storage ring, the sword had no eyes, Ye Shikai kept swinging his sword, and he blocked the combined attack of several people, but in the face of the siege of dozens of people, he still seemed powerless.
"Hey, didn't you say it's okay to get to the end, it's going to kill me. Ye Shikai couldn't help but complain.
"yes, then I don't know. Mi Wen waved his hand, and watched with "interest" on the side, as if watching a duel between a group of dead soldiers.
"It's funny. β
Whizzing.
As he spoke, several arrows shot out from the side, although the cold arrows were not above board, but they were very effective, Ye Shikai was busy parrying the sword blows in the front, and he had to dodge the attack from the shadows, and if he was not careful, the arrows grazed his armor and drew a white mark.
"Yes, I have some skills. Seeing that Ye Shikai was skilled in swordsmanship and did not fall behind, Mi Wen clapped his hands "encouragingly".
"yes, then I'll show you something more powerful. Ye Shikai snorted coldly, found a vacancy, and distanced himself from everyone.
"HadesβShadow Clone. β
In an instant, there were more than a dozen doppelgangers in the garden, exactly the same, making it difficult to distinguish, not only those dead soldiers, but even Qi Wen was shocked, this main magic skill needs to consume a lot of internal force, Ye Shikai has not used it for a long time, and it is difficult to exert all his skills for a while, but he also easily reversed the situation, if it is about one against one, he has an absolute advantage.
"Receive. β
Ye Shikai sighed lightly and withdrew his clone, and the dead man who fought fiercely was worried that he would have a back hand, so he didn't dare to approach for a while.
"Well, the temptation is over. β
"It's not bad, you didn't disappoint me. In the blink of an eye, Mi Wen had already flashed in front of him, and the distance between the two was not too close.
"Now that the temptation is over, I will take my leave. Ye Shikai turned around and left, if Mi Wen wanted to find out how deep his strength was, it would really disappoint her, Ye Shikai just showed a master skill, there are many "treasures" on him, and there are many "secrets", these are enough to shock her.
"Take that sergeant of yours away, I don't want to hear even a word come out of his mouth in the future about the murder in the city. β
"Got it. Ye Shikai nodded, Mi Wen found a death row prisoner to replace, which can be regarded as "hiding from the sky and crossing the sea", as the lord, she is naturally worried that the incident will happen and damage her reputation.

As soon as the day dawned, there was a human head hanging in the bazaar, and the surrounding people came forward to watch, Sun County Ling was "praising Ye Shikai's "righteous annihilation" below, and the crowd came with a burst of fierce applause from time to time, in order to avoid being discovered, he waited until the next day, he secretly took the sergeant out of the city, in order to prevent being recognized in the future, Ye Shikai sent him some silver, and placed him in a neighboring county, and the matter was over.
A month later.
One thing is right, as she said before, "killing" this sergeant, you can get the support of the people of the entire Linxiang City, and there are rumors in the streets and alleys that "General Ye who fought against the wolf clan is upright, kills the criminal sergeant, and reassures the people's hearts with military discipline", coupled with the "propaganda" of Sun County's order, Ye Shikai was shaped into a big hero, of course, his behavior can be regarded as a "hero".
"I heard that General Ye is recruiting troops in the south of the city, and anyone who enlists will be rewarded with five taels of silver each. β
"Yes, there is also a notice in the north of the city. β
"General Ye is a big hero, I'm going. β
"I'm going too. β
I heard that Ye Shikai was recruiting troops and horses in Linxiang City, many young and middle-aged people were like "obsessed", and actively signed up, many people went to the barracks to reward the sergeants, and even the blacksmith shop was building weapons day and night, and did not dare to relax at all, Ye Shikai was "unheard of", and the quota of 5,000 recruits was all recruited in just two days.
"Shangguan, how are you recovering from your injuries? Ye Shikai took the wine and meat and walked into Shangguan Jian's tent.
"Haha, God has eyes, he didn't want my life, you see, I'm back to normal. Shangguan Jian waved his fists and feet, not only did he recover well, but he was also in good spirits.
"By the way, Lao Ye, I heard that the people in the city are enthusiastically signing up, why are you only recruiting 5,000 people, now is a good opportunity for us to expand the army." β
"Of course I know, but the combat strength of an army is not determined by the number of people, the overall cohesion, the cooperation between the sergeants, these are very important, after the battle of Dongjun, our vitality is greatly damaged, only one-fifth of the veterans are left, if we want to expand the army, we must have enough captains, even chiefs, they directly determine the combat power of the recruits. β
"I see what you mean. Shangguan Jian nodded and said, the army is fighting, and the commanders are strategizing in the camp tents, but the actual executors of military orders are these "mainstays".
"So we can't be in a hurry, and since the new armament hasn't been built yet, we can't let the brothers go into battle with sticks. Ye Shikai sighed, although Mi Wen fully supported them, but there was still a gap between the strength of the rebel army and the Qin army, when he was in Dongjun, he had seen the armory of the Qin army with his own eyes, which was not comparable to the rebel army.
"Well, I'm healed now, I've been idle for so long, my bones are about to loosen, if you lack officers, I'll help you train. β
"Hmm. β
"In addition, I expect that within a year, the Qin army will not move south, and the two sides will have a stalemate in Nanyang County and Nanjun area, and we will have plenty of time. β
"A year, why do you say that. β
