Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

Zhao Hongying was startled by this sudden scene.

She wanted to block Xia Mingyuan, but turned around with a puzzled look on her face, "Husband, are these soldiers yours? Where did they come from?"

Xia Mingyuan smiled and said casually, "These days, I have money and food, so it's not difficult for me to recruit some soldiers."

"I recruited these soldiers in Weishui City not long ago."

After hearing this, Zhao Hongying's face still showed some suspicion.

However, seeing that Xia Mingyuan didn't say much, she didn't ask any further.

But soon, Zhao Hongying frowned again and realized something was wrong.

"Even if my husband has 3,000 men, plus the 2,000 or 3,000 men under Uncle Yue, there are only 5,000 or 6,000 men. I'm afraid it's too risky to attack the Poison Dragon Gang."

"The Poison Dragon Gang not only outnumbers us, but also occupies the dangerous pass of Yixiantian. Without many times more troops, it will be difficult for us to capture these people."

"Or, I think we should wait and recruit some more people..."

Zhao Hongying looked at Xia Mingyuan tentatively.

Xia Mingyuan smiled and shook his head gently, "Don't worry, I wouldn't take on this porcelain job if I didn't have the skills."

"Wait a moment, and the people from the Poison Dragon Gang will run down the mountain to die."

"It's getting late, let's hurry up and get going."

"Before dawn, the army must rush to Poison Dragon Mountain."

Zhao Hongying frowned, confused by Xia Mingyuan. After a moment of hesitation, she quickly chased after him.

After a long journey of more than two hours, Xia Mingyuan finally led everyone to the foot of Poison Dragon Mountain.

Looking at the Donghe Canyon in front of him, Xia Mingyuan's mouth corners slightly raised.

"Archers are hidden on the cliffs on both sides. No one is allowed to shoot without orders. Wait until the enemy is trapped before attacking!"

"The cavalry will ambush at the entrance of the canyon. Wait until the enemy flees, and then I will pursue them."

"The rest of you, prepare the rocks. In the first round, kill half of the enemies."

"Do you understand everything?"

The system summoned third-level soldiers. Looking at the entire Daxia, they were the elite among the elite. Although not all the soldiers were literate, they could understand Xia Mingyuan's orders.

Soon, these people dispersed one after another and scattered around the canyon.

After finishing all this, a strong wind suddenly blew in the sky, bringing a cool breeze and faint thunder.

It looks like it's going to rain heavily.

Xia Mingyuan handed the coat in his hand to Zhao Hongying and put it on her. The two of them stood on a peak at the top of the Donghe Canyon and looked towards the Poison Dragon Mountain.

At this moment, it was still dark, and a number of torches could be vaguely seen gathered on the mountain.

"Husband, will the people from the Poison Dragon Gang really come here honestly as you wish?"

Zhao Hongying looked at the deployment of the army below the canyon and couldn't help but secretly click his tongue.

With such a deployment of troops, even if 5,000 people from the Poison Dragon Gang came down, they would be eaten to the bone by 3,000 people.

Xia Mingyuan nodded lightly and said calmly, "I have put a nail in the Poison Dragon Gang."

"As long as nothing unexpected happens, a group of elite soldiers will definitely come down the mountain today."

"Although we can't wipe out the Poison Dragon Gang in one go, it's not a problem to severely damage it."

As he spoke, a ray of dawn appeared in the sky.

Zhao Hongying soon discovered that a large group of people from the Poison Dragon Gang were coming down the mountain in a mighty force.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hongying was slightly stunned, with a look of disbelief on her face.

You know, ever since the Poison Dragon Gang grew bigger, no forces around them dared to challenge this group of local tyrants.

Gang leader Jiang Tai was afraid that someone would take advantage of him, so he rarely went down the mountain except for important matters.

Even if they wanted to rob a house, they would only send out a small team, even if it was only one or two hundred people. As long as the name of the Poison Dragon Gang was revealed, they would be able to run rampant throughout Hanyang.

But at this moment, the Poison Dragon Gang suddenly came down the mountain in a huge crowd of thousands of people for some unknown reason.

Zhao Hongying subconsciously clenched the sword in her hand, raised her head and looked at Xia Mingyuan in disbelief, her eyes full of curiosity.

How did my husband do it?

He could actually manipulate these desperadoes at will.

Soon, three thousand people from the Poison Dragon Gang came towards the Donghe Canyon under the dawn sky, still feeling a little sleepy.

Seeing this scene, Xia Mingyuan sneered.

He specifically chose this time in order to catch this group of people off guard!

"Let's go down the mountain to meet guests."

Xia Mingyuan waved his hand and took Zhao Hongying down the mountain.

"Damn it, these Xu family beasts really don't treat us as human beings."

"Why would you choose this time? I'm sleeping so soundly, but you insist on going down the mountain now."

"Two hours later, could someone still die?"

Yan Kai, the second-in-command of the Poison Dragon Gang, sat on horseback, squinting his eyes, half asleep and half awake, cursing as he walked.

Chen Qing had a gloomy face and didn't say a word.

For some unknown reason, early this morning, Jiang Tai, who had agreed to lead the team personally, suddenly had diarrhea.

In desperation, he had to let him and the second brother lead people down the mountain together.

This sudden change made him feel uneasy, fearing that Xia Mingyuan would blame him for his poor performance.

When we arrived at the Donghe Canyon, the sky became a little brighter.

Many soldiers have extinguished the torches in their hands.

Everyone followed the previous order and no one spoke.

The elite team of 3,000 people was so quiet at this moment that it was a little creepy.

"Second brother, please stop talking."

"After all, the Xu family is our God of Wealth. Even if they want to make trouble for us, we can only accept it with a pinch of our noses." Chen Qing sighed, with a helpless look on his face.

When Yan Kai heard this, he shook his head in disdain.

"Third brother, you are just like the eldest brother, always calculating in your mind."

"If you ask me, we shouldn't have listened to the Xu family back then. Hundreds of us were robbing houses in the mountains, eating meat and weighing out gold and silver. It wasn't as good as it is now."

"Right now, the Xu family is treating our Poison Dragon Gang like running dogs."

"After cutting down our supplies, they still need so many damn people."

Yan Kai was complaining non-stop when he saw a young man suddenly appear in front of the team, followed by a female guard.

When Chen Qing saw Xia Mingyuan, he immediately pretended to bow.

"Excuse me, are you from the Xu family?"

Xia Mingyuan nodded slightly, put his hands behind his back, glanced at Yan Kai, and frowned.

"Didn't I tell you to have your boss come in person?"

"Where is Jiang Tai? Why don't you let him come out to see me?"

Xia Mingyuan had seen Jiang Tai's portrait and naturally saw the clues.

Yan Kai's face turned ugly, and he was about to explode, but was stopped by Chen Qing, who explained with a smile on his face: "Mr. Xu, please don't be angry."

"Our eldest brother wanted to go down the mountain himself, but he suddenly had diarrhea. He was afraid that it would delay the important matters of the Xu family, so he asked us two brothers to go down the mountain first."
