Chapter 198: Joining the Army
Leaving the legend in Hornstone City, without a trace of nostalgia, Qin Ping came to the Iron-Blooded Roaring Legion.
The establishment of the Iron Roar Legion is a typical command system, generally thirty regular soldiers for a battalion, with one commander. For every ten Commanders, there is a Great Commander. Among the three to five commanders, there is a general.
The entire Iron-Blooded Roaring Legion, with about 3,000 regular soldiers, is composed of almost a hundred battalions, ten commanders, three generals, and a two-star general who sits in command of the whole army.
This is the strength of the legion on paper, and as for how many powerful people are hidden under the paper, I am afraid that only people who are extremely familiar with the legion can really know.
Qin Ping is actually no stranger to this legion. From Ma Lin and his entourage, Qin Ping really got a lot of information. Especially the second time, the information obtained from Guo Linsong covered almost all aspects of this legion. In addition, Tieyun Dao also provided him with a lot of useful information.
Qin Ping didn't have a black eye, but came prepared.
"Chen Fan, we're meeting again!"
Inside the big tent, General Hong Gufeng Hong personally met with Qin Ping. It was he who united Mu Xuanliu and sent a formal invitation to Qin Ping to join the army. Now that Qin Ping has come to the legion, he is naturally under his command. Although in terms of identity, as one of the three major one-star generals in the legion, Hong Gufeng has no need to meet a recruit in person. But obviously, the rookie in front of him is not simple. That's the new King of Beasts who hasn't tasted defeat in Hornrock. The young man in front of him had already brought huge profits to the legion before he joined the army, and after repeated verification and observation, he did not find anything suspicious.
Such a good seedling, once he grows up, can definitely become a mainstay in the army, and he has the grace of knowing things, and he will inevitably be a big talent under him in the future. Receiving it in person can bring you closer to your feelings, so why not.
"Subordinates meet General Hong!"
Qin Ping bowed slightly, always calm and calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
"No need to be polite!"
Hong Gufeng waved his hand, not angry but self-assured, looked at Qin Ping, frowned slightly, and sighed: "It seems that you took Shen Xiao's move that day, and your cultivation has improved again!"
It was no wonder that Hong Gufeng sighed like this, because even if it was him, a dignified ninth-grade beast master, he couldn't detect the wild aura on Qin Ping's body. If he hadn't known earlier about the power of the young man in front of him, he would definitely think that Qin Ping was an ordinary person who was completely unable to cultivate.
"It's true that there is a little improvement, but compared to the general, it's still too bad!"
Qin Ping smiled slightly, modestly, with a few compliments.
Hong Gufeng laughed, and didn't care much about these personal secrets, and raised his eyes to sweep the other people in the tent: "The ranks are all my old subordinates, it's not a secret, Chen Fan is a rare talent, I don't know who you want?"
Hearing these words, Qin Ping couldn't help but feel slightly shocked, only to know that the four people in the tent were not simple, they were actually the great commanders under Hong Gufeng.
As everyone knows, among the ten commanders, there is only one great commander. Generally speaking, a battalion of troops under the Grand Commander is the elite battalion of the ten.
Hong Gufeng asked the four commanders to pick it personally, there is no doubt that Qin Ping will directly enter the elite camp nine times out of ten, and the starting point is naturally much higher than that of ordinary soldiers.
From this small detail, Qin Ping also realized Hong Gufeng's sincerity.
"It seems that it is the same everywhere, and ability is the last word. It's a pity that I, Qin Ping, are not here to serve your Roaring Kingdom!"
Qin Ping sighed in his heart, and saw the four great commanders exchanging glances. In a moment, a middle-aged man with a resolute face and a burly figure stepped forward and said, "General, we have already had some plans before. At the moment, I am short of competent manpower, and my brothers are interested in taking care of me, so I am welcome!"
"Xie Ao, then I'll hand over my Chen Fan to you!"
Hong Gufeng nodded, raised his hand and waved, and a military badge flew straight towards Xie Ao Xie Commander. Xie Ao stretched out his hand to catch it, turned to look at Qin Ping and said, "Hurry up and sacrifice blood! From now on, you will be a member of my Xie Ao!"
Qin Ping took the military card thrown by Xie Ao, looked at it carefully, and found that it was similar to the military merit coat of arms of the Kingdom of Mountains and Seas, except that the military card of the Roaring Kingdom, with a bear on one side and a wolf on the other, was the symbol of the Roaring Kingdom - the roar of the earth and the roar of the storm. Without much hesitation, Qin Ping quickly refined the general's card.
General Hong Gufeng then stared at him and said a few words of encouragement, and Qin Ping withdrew from the big tent with Xie Ao and went straight to the camp.
It is a complex of buildings made of cut and regular stones, detached, with courtyards in front and back, and equipped with servants' dwellings, animal houses, etc., the area is not small, no more, no less, the whole is thirty rooms.
Xie Ao's style of action is very decisive and concise, with the demeanor of an iron-blooded soldier, and he has not spoken much along the way. When Chen Fan was brought to his residence, all kinds of orders were ordered, and everything was arranged, the other members of the camp were already waiting in the open space in front of the barracks.
At a glance, Qin Ping found that this battalion was not full, and he only had twenty-one people, and a small half of them were injured.
"Could it be that there has been a war on the grassland in the past month?"
Qin Ping's heart couldn't help but sink. For the past month, he has been busy with cultivation and beast fighting, living in seclusion, and knows almost nothing about things outside the city. Judging from the previous situation, there is a real possibility of a big war on the steppe in January.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a newcomer to our camp, Chen Fan. Although Chen Fan is a newcomer in the army, in the Hornstone City in the rear, he is the famous king of beasts, and he is by no means an unknown person. When you join our army, you are comrades. If they are comrades, they are brothers. I hope that the rank can get familiar with it as soon as possible and have a good relationship!"
Xie Ao's voice was hard and powerful, but there was a trace of misery, and he turned his head to look at Qin Ping and said, "Okay, you can introduce yourself to you! Later, you still have a character to complete!"
The atmosphere here made Qin Ping feel that something was wrong. From ordinary soldiers to the commander Xie Ao, there was a tragic aura of grief and indignation on his body.
Qin Ping nodded, introduced himself concisely, and was quite curious about the so-called task.
"Bring it on!"
Xie Ao didn't talk nonsense, but his face became more and more cold, and he waved his hand violently, letting out a shout full of iron-blooded murderous aura.
Several warriors in front of him received the order, dodged out of the queue, and in a short time, seven bloodstained and miserable figures came to the clearing, roughly pressed them to the ground, and knelt in a row horizontally.
It was seven beast masters, from the second rank to the fifth grade, from young to middle-aged, all from the advance army of the Mountain and Sea Kingdom. That's actually seven captives. Qin Ping recognized their origins almost at a glance.
His nerves tensed for a moment, but reason was telling him to hold his breath.
"Three days ago, we had a bloody battle on the front line, losing 10 of our comrades. ”
Xie Ao's face was expressionless, and he looked straight at Qin Ping with iron-blooded eyes and said, "Soldiers, you must see blood." We've killed too much, and these seven captives are a gift from your brothers!"
With a bang, Xie Ao suddenly pulled out the saber on his body, handed it to Qin Ping, and ordered in a deep voice: "Chop off their heads, before the barracks!"
"It's a temptation! It's definitely a temptation!"
In Qin Ping's heart, a voice was telling him. His origin is untraceable, and the people of the legion will definitely not easily believe him, so all kinds of temptations must be indispensable. It's just that Qin Ping didn't expect that the first problem Xie Ao gave him was to execute the captives of the Shanhai Kingdom.
Dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at him for a moment.
What should Qin Ping do?
If he really came from the Kingdom of Mountains and Seas, he must be unbearable, and maybe he would have to show some flaws.
However, he is not!
"Poor people, I'm sorry! let me give you a good time!"
Qin Ping sighed in his heart, but his face was solemn, and he reached out and took the battle knife in Xie Ao's hand, and his posture looked very decisive. It is true that Qin Ping is not a hard-hearted person. After all, his position is on the side of the Mountain and Sea Kingdom, and he feels pity for these seven people in his heart. However, he knew very well that since these seven people had become prisoners, they would definitely not end well.
Where there is war, there will be sacrifice.
After listening to Xie Ao's words, he already knew why there was a tragic aura of grief and anger on the people here, because they had just suffered a heavy defeat and lost a full ten people, equivalent to one-third of a battalion.
Teng Teng, Qin Ping held a knife in his hand and strode to the front of the seven people.
"Even if we die, we will not die well. When the army of mountains and seas comes, you will be wiped out, and there will be no place to bury you!"
"Shame on me for not dying on the battlefield!"
“...... But beg to die!"
"Little thief, do it quickly, what are you waiting for?"
......
Looking at Qin Ping in front of him, the seven people who were already seriously injured suddenly let out a long howl of grief and indignation.
When Qin Ping heard this, his heart was depressed, his face sank suddenly, and he shouted: "Don't worry, my knife is very fast, on the Huangquan Road, you can still go together!"
Click......
The knife fell back and forth a few times, blood splattered, and people's heads rolled. Qin Ping's knife was indeed neat and tight.
Qin Ping's battalion, led by the commander Xie Ao, is an elite battalion, and its members are all fierce generals in the army, named Gang Wolf.
After the previous battle, the wolf suffered heavy losses, lost one-third of its personnel, and there were many seriously wounded, and it is currently in a period of recuperation, and there are no important military operations.
After the initial contact, Qin Ping and the soldiers in the camp gradually became acquainted.
In this world, the weak eat the strong, and the strong are respected, and in the army that pursues force, it is naturally the world of the strong.
Gang Wolf is worthy of being an elite battalion, according to Qin Ping's secret observation, it can be said that it is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and there are five five-grade beast masters, all of whom are iron-blooded, ancient and profound.
In terms of realm cultivation alone, Qin Ping is the existence at the bottom. Although he was recommended by Hong Gufeng and blessed with the name of the King of Beasts, he still did not receive respect in the true sense, or recognition.
There is a tradition in the Iron Roar Legion, and the soldiers of each battalion often hold some exchange activities, whether the content is combat skills, or cultivation experience, or analysis of the enemy...... All in all, very flexible. Its purpose is to increase the cohesion of the Legion and provide an opportunity to get to know each other and communicate with each other.
“...... Warframes, weapons, elixir supplies, and even mounts, all of which need to be exchanged for military merit. The Legion's treasury is very rich, as long as you have enough ability, you can have almost anything you want!"
In the huge stone barracks, the sound of muffled stuffiness resounded. I saw a big man puff up his chest, his eyebrows fluttering and he said loudly, his broad palm clicking on the armor on his body.
On this day, it was the time for the Gang Wolf Camp to hold internal exchange activities.
Looking at the proud and flaunting appearance of the big man in front of him, Qin Ping was really a little crying and laughing. To be honest, the other party's equipment, in his opinion, is actually just like that. After all, it was just a beast weapon made in batches by the refiner, although the grade was as high as five grades. In terms of defensive capabilities, it can't be compared to his Ten Thousand Spirit Horn Divine Armor at all.
But he can't deny that such a pair of armor is indeed not ordinary. It's more of a symbol of glory.
"These things outside the body are still secondary, Xiao Chen, you have an extraordinary background, you may indeed be unsightly!"
The big man probably saw the contempt hidden under Qin Ping's calmness, his voice sank suddenly, his arm suddenly poked out, Pu Fan's big palm opened in front of Qin Ping, and between the five fingers, a violent force suddenly rose like a flame.
"Is this ......?!"
As soon as he felt this energy, Qin Ping's complexion changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but show a look of surprise. That power is not simple, it is full of the smell of iron and blood, violent and condensed, as if it has been precipitated by time, it is not like a force at all, but a more intelligent power.
"Surprised, isn't it? This is what the Legion is all about!"
The big man grinned, and the smug color on his face was even stronger: "Barbarian level ancient beast technique, the unique secret method of cultivating the beast element." Only in the Legion can you learn your hands just by working hard!"
What that power was, Qin Ping naturally knew in his heart. It's just that he didn't expect that the rough man in front of him would be able to cultivate. I didn't expect that in this iron-blooded roaring army, there was actually the inheritance of such beast techniques.
The Barbarian Grade Ancient Beast Recipe was already extremely rare, not to mention the Beast Recipe that specialized in cultivating the Beast Yuan. This kind of beast trick, if it is in the outside world, is simply a secret that cannot be passed on, enough to become the foundation of the prosperity of a party's power, and it is absolutely impossible to spread it easily.
Regarding all this, in the information that Qin Ping had obtained before, it was not mentioned at all.
The Beast Yuan is more advanced than Gang Force, and it is a terrifying force that can truly hurt people in the air. In the previous advance army of the Kingdom of Mountains and Seas, there was no way to exchange it at all. In other words, no matter how many military merit points you have, there is no way to redeem them.
With this group of beast elements alone, Qin Ping knew that the strength of the big man in front of him was by no means as simple as it seemed, and if he was against it, he might not have a chance of winning.
This kind of power, even Shen Xiao, who had a great damage to his bones, did not cultivate.
Not to mention how the big man in front of him obtained such an amazing inheritance, the fact that he was able to cultivate it alone was enough to show that this person had a body of creation, an extraordinary bloodline, and a talent that ordinary people could not match.
"Kuroko, don't show off here. Now who doesn't know that you are the first person under the command of the Great Commander to cultivate the Beast Yuan. ”
"Yes, if you continue to show off like this every day, the brothers will not be happy!"
"I see you, it's better to be modest. The war opened, and the legion threw out the Bear King Dayuan trick to boost the hearts of the army, although you were the first to learn, it is inevitable that someone will come first in the future, but surpass you. Be a man, or keep a low profile!"
......
After listening to everyone's squeezing and ridicule, Qin Ping suddenly realized in his heart. No wonder he didn't know before, it turned out that this Bear King Dayuan Jue was a hole card that the Iron-blooded Roaring Legion had only recently revealed. Dare to love this guy nicknamed Da Hei, since he has made a small achievement in cultivating this beast technique, he has not been less prominent in front of people, which makes everyone a little impatient.
Da Hei shrunk his neck, hurriedly collected the "supernatural power", and snorted coldly a little: "Didn't I let Xiao Chen know the essence of our legion?"
"Amazing, it seems that I, Chen Fan, have not come to the wrong place!"
When Qin Ping heard this, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but sigh. The Great Yuan Jue of the Bear King really made him excited.
"Work hard, as long as you have 30 million military merits, you can get it!"
When Da Hei heard this, he raised his hand and patted Qin Ping on the shoulder, and the smugness could not be concealed at all.
"Thirty million?"
Not only Qin Ping was taken aback, but even the other fighters were all gloomy. That's a terrifying number.
To be honest, everyone is too envious. This person could only be regarded as a mid-stream in the army, but he had an opportunity that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve. Two years ago, during a mission, Dahei accidentally found a stone egg in the depths of a mountain stream, which was actually the egg of a fierce bird in the wilderness. Unexpected gains of heavy treasures, but Da Hei was not carried away. He knew that this egg fell into his hands, which was tantamount to a pearl secretly cast, not only was it difficult to shine, but if it was not done well, it would lead to death. After several trade-offs, he chose to hand over the half-petrified egg to the legion, and was finally valued by a prominent beast soul master, who felt his loyalty and selflessness, and actually rewarded 30 million military merit points in one go. If it weren't for that, how could he be the first to learn the Great Yuan Trick of the Bear King!
However, in addition to good luck, Daikoku is also really talented. After getting the Great Yuan Jue of the Bear King, it didn't take long for him to practice a little success.
Now, everyone knows that Da Hei's bloodline happens to have some kind of natural fit with this ancient beast technique.
This is really a matter of destiny and envy.
Today's Da Hei, with this Bear King Great Yuan Technique, is increasing in strength day by day, and has already become one of the most powerful people in Gangwolf, and in the foreseeable future, it will become even stronger, until everyone is far away.
As you can see with your own eyes, these beast tricks do have the effect of turning decay into magic. It's no wonder that everyone's words are a little sour, and it is difficult to hide their envy.
