Chapter 174: Mercenaries

The whole of the Phong Ming Kingdom was opposed to being coerced and lured by the North Vietnamese State to send troops.

Feng Ming Kingdom only has 50,000 troops, and it was only after Chenguang came back from Shengzi Mountain that he and Si Yujin were finally put in order. Although the combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the regular armies of other countries, and even the "army" is very reluctant, it is their country's own army, and in the eyes of a group of courtiers, these 50,000 people staying at home to grow some food and get rid of pests are better than going out to serve as human shields.

Chenguang agreed to Han Zheng's request to cooperate in sending troops.

Although the people of Feng Mingguo did not dare to object, they had a stomach full of resentment against Chenguang's dictatorship.

Si Yujin was angry, he was just angry at the ant-like Beiyue Kingdom's insult and contempt for Feng Yingguo, but Si Yujin was surprised that Chenguang had successfully predicted that Han Zheng would send someone to come, and at the same time, his feelings about Chenguang in his heart became more and more complicated.

Si Yujin knew a long time ago that Chenguang's so-called prophecy was not based on the innate spiritual power of the women of the Feng Netherworld, she relied on her own predictions, and most of them would predict correctly, which was actually a more terrifying thing than having a strong prophetic spiritual power.

The Foggy Valley near the Huai Hill is the most special area in the Phoenix Underworld, here is more terrible than any forbidden place in the past, the Foggy Valley is shrouded in dense fog all the year round, and it is impossible to discern the direction after entering, since ancient times, the people who went in did not come out alive, and over time, this place has become the famous devil zone in the Phoenix Underworld.

But now, this is the main production area of the Feng Netherworld mine, and the place where the Feng Netherworld army is stationed and trained.

After passing through the Foggy Valley, it is a place that is more refreshing and cool than any other region in the country, and Chenguang has brought Shen Run to the abandoned mine once.

But the real Chenghuai Hill Mine Group is not here, this is the gold mine developed by the Feng Ming Kingdom before, and the mining was soon stopped because of the limitation of mining skills.

The real Chenghuaiqiu Mine is in the Rainbow Valley three hundred miles west of here, and now there are 50,000 soldiers of the Feng Ming Kingdom stationed in the Rainbow Valley, and those people are practicing while mining, so the truth is that they only become soldiers when they are fighting, and they are usually miners.

This is also something that can't be helped, the Feng Ming Kingdom itself has a small population, and because of the natural environment, there are very few people who are naturally strong, and it is already a miracle for Chenguang to recruit 50,000 people from all over the country.

Because the treatment of the army is the best among all the industries in the Feng Ming Kingdom, the people of the Feng Ming Kingdom are proud to be able to enter the army to serve.

Feng Ming Kingdom also did its best to build an army, although it did not care about the development of military strength and disregard the life and death of the people like the North Yue Kingdom, but Chenguang actually understood Han Zheng's mind very well, after all, military strength is the foundation of the country.

Chenguang, the craftsman sent by Long Xiguo to assist in the mining of Feng Ming Kingdom, did not expel him after the retreat, nor did he kill him directly, she used heavy profits to leave this group of people, because Feng Ming Kingdom was the most short of craftsmen.

Chenguang didn't care if they really surrendered, they couldn't escape, they could only serve her seriously, and that was enough for Chenguang.

The gold mine in cooperation with Long Xiguo is still being mined, but Feng Yingguo is in retreat, so the cooperation agreement signed with Shen Run is unilaterally nullified.

Chenguang doesn't think this is dishonest at all, on the one hand, the cooperation between Feng Mingguo and Long Xiguo was originally based on harmony, and now that the harmony is over, of course she has to take it back, and in the past two years, Long Xiguo has also made a lot of money from the unequal agreement, and she didn't care.

Besides, Long Xi is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, Shen Run is too busy to take care of himself, how can he have the time to come over to teach her a lesson because of the breach of the contract in Feng Yingguo, even if he wants to teach a lesson, he has to wait for Long Xi Kingdom to stabilize, and who knows what the situation in the Seven Kingdoms will be at that time.

She took advantage of the fire to rob and was not trustworthy, what could Shen Run do?

The morning light is triumphant.

Nowadays, in addition to a small number of soldiers from the Phoenix Netherworld who are training day and night in the old mines near Foggy Valley, more of them are mercenaries hired by Chenguang from the people of various countries.

For example, in addition to the official army of the imperial court, the people of many countries have hidden organizations that can help fight the war by giving money, and they dare not call themselves 'army' on the surface, but in fact, these people gather together, and the strength is almost the same as the regular army.

These organizations are doing all kinds of knife licking work in the people, such as the major dart bureaus on the white road, or the gangs that sell goods by water and land, and then the bandits and horse bandits on the underworld, if these people guess their image through various rumors, these people give the impression that they are probably a group of folk rabble, gangsters who do evil, but in fact, many of these people are similar to the official army of the imperial court. The only thing lacking is armament and a justifiable title.

These people, like the regular army, act as a team every day, although they have not experienced wars between countries, but they experience life and death battles most of the time, and that is their daily life. Moreover, many of these people have entered the army and finally retired for various reasons.

Chenguang also knew in her heart that summoning a group of troops that were not considered an army was probably the next policy, but there were few people in Feng Mingguo, so she could only accept her fate and fight, as long as it was not a good strategy.

She spent a lot of money to hire about 30,000 people from other countries and through various channels to form a new army.

It took a lot of work to get these people in through the gates of various countries.

Sitting on the small stone lookout, looking at the rabble that she had hired at great expense, she leaned her chin against a recess in the lookout, and put her hands on the backs of her hands, looking at the soldiers who were practicing below with a pair of big black eyes.

It is indeed a group of rabble, they don't listen to the orders of the commander of the Feng Ming Kingdom at all, they stand there crookedly, let the general blow his beard and jump his feet, do everything, and don't understand what military regulations and military discipline are at all, and they are not as neat as the waste army of Feng Ming Kingdom that has just started training and has not even killed anyone.

Si Yujin clasped his arms in his hands, stood next to Chenguang and frowned, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, in his words, this is not an army, this is a group of hooligans who are worse than dung maggots.

Chenguang holds his cheek with one hand.

These people do have all kinds of shortcomings, but there is one thing that Chenguang thinks they can win against the main army, that is, the ruthlessness of licking blood with the head of the knife, and the fierce light that looks at everyone full of murderous energy, at first glance, it is not on the right path. The unrestrained evil path, as long as it is played well, will be stronger than the righteous path.

They don't need to be smart, they don't have to be neat and heroic, and Chenguang didn't hire them to do that. They just need to kill her, follow the instructions of the upper peak and let them kill wherever they want, and kill them until they are killed, don't stop, don't need to think, don't need to stop, just take money to do things, and maintain fierce combat effectiveness.

As for whether they will be able to come back alive after the war, to be honest, these are only hired by her, and she doesn't care.
