Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

How could Cheng Feng have foreseen that his simple gathering of his disciples would cause such astonishment among the spies outside the gate and their masters behind the scenes, even shocking the entire Qingxi County?

After all, this small county town only had about twenty thousand residents, and that didn't even include the population of the villages outside the city. The four major gangs each had about eight hundred members, making them evenly matched and equally powerful.

Wang Hu had once warned Cheng Feng: "A large gang with a thousand members must never appear in the county town. This is a lesson learned from the past! Once the number exceeds the limit, it will attract the attention of the government. If there is even a slight act of resistance, the government will definitely send a large army to suppress it."

Cheng Feng thought to himself that he currently only had about five hundred people, far from the size of those big gangs! Therefore, he had no idea that his sudden gathering of so many disciples would cause the county's upper echelons to focus their attention on him.

But even if he knew, so what? Cheng Feng wasn't afraid at all. After all, a blacksmith needs a strong body!

When the time came, he would just have the Three Halls guard the perimeter, the Training Camp provide support from the center, and the Human Hall take care of internal affairs. By dividing the responsibilities, he could easily manage everything!

At this moment, many disciples were standing in front of the newly built platform, while Cheng Feng was sitting upright on the head seat of the high platform, overlooking the crowd below.

The disciples of the Human Hall stood in the front, the disciples of the Training Camp were in the middle, and the disciples of the Three Halls were arranged on the outermost perimeter.

He Wu looked at Cheng Feng, whom he had once been in close contact with, now sitting high above, and couldn't help but feel a strong sense of envy: "A real man should be like him!"

The Cheng brothers, Cheng Shu and Cheng Lei, watched their brother sitting on the high platform and sighed inwardly, finally feeling closer to their brother.

Sun Gui, Zhou Hai, Li Yang, and the other elders who had joined the Hongmen the earliest, watched the Hongmen grow step by step into such a powerful force today. The initial discomfort with Cheng Feng's previous plans and regulations had completely disappeared, replaced only by deep respect and admiration.

They had stayed in the Tiger Head Gang for at least ten years, but they had never seen such a grand and magnificent scene.

Under Cheng Feng's leadership, the Hongmen had achieved such amazing achievements in less than two years, and its future development was limitless!

Looking at the crowd below, each person stood as straight as a javelin, their eyes firm, not looking sideways, their heads held high, and their formation was neat and uniform, like a well-trained army.

Cheng Feng felt a strong sense of satisfaction and pride in his heart. He slowly stood up and looked down at the crowd from above.

He said in a loud voice: "Back then, I, Cheng Feng, was just a fishmonger on the street, working hard for a living every day. However, fate is always full of surprises and variables."

"A chance encounter allowed me to create the Hongmen. Today, our Hongmen has grown and become stronger. The disciples are divided into inner disciples and outer disciples according to their organization."

"Many people dream of becoming inner disciples, but this is by no means easy. I have even heard some rumors. But I don't care,"

"Because what our Hongmen needs are true elites, who must have the strength to fight ten or even a hundred men alone!"

"If you don't have such ability, then what qualifications do you have to step into the realm of inner disciples?"

"What are you here in the Hongmen for? Is it for the so-called brotherhood? Or is it to stand out and bring glory to your ancestors?"

"No, neither of those! What you are pursuing is actually the generous treatment enjoyed by inner disciples – food, drink, and money to take. On weekdays, if you have money to spare, you can even go to Yichun Garden to find some women for pleasure!"

"You must have heard about it outside, the treatment in the Hongmen is no worse than any other gang, and even surpasses them,"

"But even with such generous conditions, some of you can't even complete the most basic training subjects in the training camp. What qualifications do you have to enter the Hongmen?"

"You might as well ask those disciples who have already entered the sect, which one of them didn't pass the test of the training camp with their own true skills to enter the sect?"

"This is an opportunity that people have won through their own efforts. If you can't do it, then it's a problem with your own ability. Stop complaining meaninglessly, and don't say things like I'm being partial."

"Now, the strength of the Hongmen is growing stronger, but the territory is no longer enough for the development of the many brothers. Now I will give you a great opportunity."

"Those small gangs next door, like the Small Knife Gang and the Walking Stick Gang, simply don't have the strength to occupy so much territory. Tonight, let's take them down in one fell swoop! Do you think that's right?"

The disciples below the stage had fiery flames flickering in their eyes, and they echoed Cheng Feng's words with excitement: "Right! Right! Right!"

After only three responses, the entire audience quickly returned to silence. This was actually the meeting discipline that Cheng Feng had specially arranged. From the current situation, it was clear that Wang Hu had organized it quite well.

After shouting, everyone's blood seemed to be ignited, boiling endlessly.

"Very good! Don't you crave opportunities? Don't you want to learn martial arts? Don't you want silver? Today, this sect leader will give you this opportunity! Let us conquer those weak gangs around us!"

"The top ten who make great contributions will receive generous rewards and enter the training camp for advanced studies; the top twenty who make contributions will also receive rewards. As for the others, the rewards will be determined according to their respective merits. Now, immediately follow your captains and act strictly according to the plan!"

The disciples below the stage shouted in unison: "Yes, sir!" Their voices were like thunder, resounding through the clouds.

Cheng Feng finally understood why men craved power. This feeling was indeed intoxicating, but he kept a clear head. Only with enough strength could he truly grasp power. Otherwise, he would have died in the hands of the Blood Wolf Gang disciples when he met Lin Wan'er, let alone the glory of today.

As for the strategy, it had already been formulated before departure. Wang Hu, Sun Gui, Zhou Hai, Li Yang, and others had clearly planned their goals. They were confident and ready for battle!

Even during the opening meeting, there were disciples keeping watch, just to ensure success in one fell swoop.

Wang Hu shouted: "Human Hall disciples, gather!"

Sun Gui shouted: "Gui Hall disciples, assemble!"

Zhou Hai shouted: "Hai Hall disciples, gather here!"

Li Yang shouted: "Yang Hall disciples, gather here!"

Baibai shouted: "Training Camp disciples, assemble!"

The disciples, full of enthusiasm, followed their leaders to carry out their missions and make contributions.
