Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

"I used to think he was a man of courage and wisdom, and I thought he would be a man of great potential, but I never thought he would follow a madman."

At this point, Huo Xiuwen felt a chill in his heart. He was shocked to realize what kind of person he was dealing with.

Li Yuan, who was still young, was bold enough to take Jiguanshan quietly, forcing him to agree.

He originally thought that he was unwilling to accept the status quo and knew that he had no ability, so he wanted to find a capable person to lead his brothers to fight. Li Yuan just happened to meet him and met his requirements, so he followed him.

But this time Li Yuan took him to eliminate the surrounding bandits, and his methods were ruthless and cruel beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Only later did he realize why Li Yuan took him out. It might be to stop him from having any other thoughts and let him know what would happen if he rebelled.

Huo Xiuping spoke with all his conscience, being a bandit like he was was already a act of conscience. After he expanded Jiguanshan, he only gained fame but did not do anything earth-shaking.

But this time, Li Yuan wiped out all the small bandit nests in the surrounding area and spread the word that it was Ji Guanshan who did it. His words implied that he wanted to bring Ji Guanshan down and tie him together with him.

The other people who were brought here did not dare to act rashly because Li Yuan had the thousand men from Jiguanshan behind him.

In the future, Jiguanshan may have missed the best time to resist, and the people brought over and the people from Jiguanshan may restrain each other.

He had no doubt that as long as Li Yuan was given some time, these more than 2,000 people would be loyal and follow his lead.

But Huo Xiuwen didn't understand one thing amidst all the twists and turns.

Since Li Yuan dared to take them down with dozens of people and claimed that he had external aid, why did he go to the trouble of taking down the surrounding bandit dens and the opposing forces in Jiguanshan?

……

This person Li Yuan!!

Huo Xiuwen suddenly thought of something. Since Li Yuan would do anything he could, why couldn't we say that he would cheat and deceive?

This person has been deceiving them from the beginning to the end.

There was no so-called external aid at all. Li Yuan actually brought dozens of people up the mountain and captured Jiguanshan!

This madman! !

Wei Qiqi saw Huo Xiuwen finish talking to him, and then his expression became distorted and ferocious, and his heart was in turmoil.

Huo Xiuwen's description of Xiaobao as a lunatic frightened her more than anything Li Yuan had done.

During this period of time, she always thought about Xiaobao's abnormality, but she didn't find anything.

But she thought that people who were too smart and close to evil were always prone to going crazy and falling into the devil's trap.

She was afraid that Li Yuan would fall into his own confusion and go astray.

When she first came here, the system told her to hold on to Li Yuan if she wanted to survive, and the words had never left her mind.

Li Yuan's subsequent behavior was consistent with her various speculations. He was accomplished in both civil and military affairs, calm and self-controlled, and could do whatever he wanted to do from childhood to adulthood.

People who are extremely self-disciplined have stronger and more paranoid personalities than others.

Once one falls into madness, it will be a disaster for the people around him, the people below him, and the common people.

She couldn't let Li Yuan become such a person.

She had been with him for so many years, she had put so much effort into recognizing him as her own family member, she would never let him go astray.

"Qiniang, what are you talking about?"

Li Yuan's voice came from behind. He was very close. Wei Qiqi turned around and faced Li Yuan's chin.

"woke up?"

Wei Qiqi looked at Li Yuan, the dark grey in his eyes faded a lot, he changed out of his bloody clothes, and looked refreshed.

She looked at them with a smile on her face, which was nothing like what she had imagined.

Maybe she was overthinking it?

"Well, I came here when I woke up." Seeing that Wei Qiqi did not answer the question directly, Li Yuan did not ask any more questions.

But when Wei Qiqi turned around, her eyes fell on Huo Xiuwen with coldness, and the warning in them was self-evident.

Huo Xiuwen was stunned by what he saw, then turned around in panic.

After Li Yuan rested for two days, Wei Qiqi and Li Yuan began to prepare for training.

There is a large plain behind Jiguan Mountain, and behind the plain is a dense forest.

It can accommodate two thousand people and is still spacious, making it very suitable for training.

Li Yuan discussed matters with everyone, and brought Wei Qiqi with him before doing anything.

Therefore, when everyone saw Wei Qiqi sitting in a high position, they were mixed with thoughts.

Cheng Feiyue and Dai Jiangong were responsible for the statistics. There were a total of 2,432 people. Excluding the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, there were less than 2,000 people who could be used.

Li Yuan redivided the two thousand people and temporarily selected a few people who he remembered and were relatively capable.

All these hundred households came here today to obey Li Yuan's orders.

"This is the list and record, divided into two copies and both are here." Cheng Feiyue placed the two books in his hand on Li Yuan's desk.

The name Li Yuan is written at the very front, followed by the names of the centurions and others.

The names that follow are divided into two columns, one column for the people from Jiguanshan, and the other column for the people from various places brought here.

Li Yuan handed the list to Wei Qiqi, "Qiniang, I leave it to you."

Wei Qiqi nodded. She and Li Yuan planned to reshuffle all the people here so that the people of Jiguanshan and people from other places could integrate faster and generate more cohesion.

"Everyone must come to the rear for training at 7:00 tomorrow. I will train them personally."

Li Yuan looked at the twenty people below and spoke in a slow and gentle voice, but no one would take his words lightly anymore. Everyone had seen what kind of person he was. His deeds had spread throughout the Jiguan Mountain, and everyone was terrified.

"You must be well prepared. Pay more attention to your subordinates. Take notes of those who have problems or abnormalities. Don't let a bad apple spoil the whole barrel."

The people below obeyed and shouted, and then Li Yuan continued to announce: "From now on, you and your brothers are no longer bandits, you are soldiers, my soldiers."

"I will distribute your food and money. If you unfortunately die in battle, we will take care of the people you care about and handle your funeral if they need help."

Li Yuan put out the weights little by little.

"I tell you this in advance so that you can be mentally prepared. Whether the road ahead will lead to higher and higher goals or a dead end is up to you."

"The challenge day will be in two days. I hope you can establish your identities. After all, you are my choice."

His words lightly lifted the hearts of the centurions below him, and they felt that they must hold on to their positions at all costs.

Wei Qiqi rearranged the people so that every hundred people included a centurion, and two thousand people had exactly twenty centurions.

Since we don’t know them well yet, Jian Feng, Jian Yu, Cheng Feiyue, Dai Jiangong and others are all in charge of management. If suitable candidates are found in the future, they will take their places.

According to Wei Qiqi's training method, the morning training content includes morning jogging, crawling, climbing over obstacles, and hiding.

The afternoon training content was that the centurions taught how to kill people in the fastest way on the battlefield.

It sounds like that's all there is, but when you break it down, you'll find it's extremely complicated.

No one knows what kind of iron-blooded army this training method born from Wei Qiqi will become in the future.

People all over the world were terrified when they heard about it, and it laid the foundation for the next hundred years.
