No one had expected a ten-year-old child to be so decisive and swift in killing.
After Xia Tian massacred the Hu family, all the gentry became obedient.
In their eyes, this ten-year-old county head was no longer an innocent and cute child, but a vengeful ghost from hell.
Within an hour, the gentry had mobilized almost all their forces to recruit soldiers from all over the city.
Moreover, Xia Tian had instructed that the recruits must be strong and robust. Those who could not even walk were not allowed.
This made things difficult. In this era, most people did not even have enough to eat. It was normal for them to be skin and bones. How could there be so many strong people?
Helpless, the gentry could only gather their servants and send them out in order to save their lives.
The one-hour deadline was soon up. More than 600 people had gathered at the entrance of the county government, all of whom were carefully selected.
Xia Tian and Natasha inspected them personally. Most of them were strong and powerful, making them excellent candidates for the army.
He asked Zhang Hu to carefully select from these people and return the unqualified ones, leaving 500 people for future use.
"Ding! System Message: Second Main Mission has been issued.”
"To form a reinforced battalion, eight hundred people are required, and the time is twelve hours.”
"Mission completion reward: one template draw, five 45mm infantry cannons.”
" Punishment: Degraded to major, the number of troops reduced to 300!”
Xia Tian was speechless.'Why didn't you tell me earlier? I just let so many people go.'
He had no choice. Since it was a main mission, he had to complete it.
Xia Tian immediately summoned all the gentry in the city and ordered them to find another three hundred men for him within three hours.
If they couldn't find anyone, they would all be shot.
The gentry were scared out of their wits as they left the county office, dragging their families to the city to recruit soldiers.
When they saw a strong man, they pulled him into the army. Some gentry even knelt down and begged the young man to join the army.
Due to Xia Tian's generous offer, all three hundred people were recruited in less than two hours.
Xia Tian was the battalion commander, Natasha was his adjutant and bodyguard, and the loyal Zhang Hu was the deputy battalion commander.
The entire battalion was divided into four companies, three infantry companies and one artillery company.
The company commander and deputy company commander were personally appointed by Xia Tian. They were all loyal subordinates that he rescued from the prisoner of war camp.
"Ding…congratulations master on completing the main quest.”
"The reward is one template draw and five 45mm rapid-fire cannons.”
"Can I draw the template now?" Xia Tian asked excitedly.”
"Sure!"
"Then hurry up." Xia Tian said eagerly.
Xia Tian was still hopeful that he would be able to obtain something good. His eyes were glued to the System template that appeared in his mind.
There were two types of templates. One was that it had lit up, which was something Xia Tian had already obtained.
The rest were dim, and the red spots of light were spinning rapidly on these dim templates.
In the end, it finally stopped, and the model emitted a dazzling light.
"Congratulations, Master, you have obtained a comprehensive ability strengthening potion.”
"Taking this medicine can allow ordinary people to have the special forces physique and some of their abilities.”
"If used for a long time, it can allow ordinary people to break through the limits of humanity.”
Xia Tian nearly burst out laughing in excitement. He really got what he wanted.
He had just recruited a few hundred people. If it was normal training, it would definitely take a long time.
However, with the comprehensive ability strengthening potion, his troops immediately became elite troops comparable to the special forces.
"Immediately conjure a comprehensive ability strengthening potion and a rapid-fire cannon.”
A few seconds later, five 45mm rapid-fire cannons appeared in front of Xia Tian along with a standard amount of ammunition.
At the same time, a large bottle of potion appeared on his table.
"Master, I'll give you twenty-four hours to train and reorganize your troops. A new main mission will be released in 24 hours!”
"What main mission?" Xia Tian asked curiously.”
"Fight!" the system said briefly.
Xia Tian's blood began to boil.
A few days ago, he was still doing hard labor in the prisoner of war camp. At that time, he did not dare to think about anything.
But now, he had soldiers, guns, cannons, and territory. What was even more impressive was that he had a super system in his hands.
Xia Tian was already eager to claim the throne of this era.
He had analyzed the map of Wenshui County in his spare time.
With his experience from his previous life, it was not difficult for him to realize that Yan Laoxi had sent him here with ill intentions.
In front of him was Taiyuan, where the Japanese soldiers were heavily stationed.
There were also heavy Japanese troops stationed on both sides.
Behind him were Yan Laoxi's troops of the Suijin Army.
Xia Tian understood that Yan Laoxi had sent him to Wenshui County to die.
He had turned himself into a buffer between him and the Japanese.
If the Japanese were to attack, the first place they would attack would be Wenshui County.
The ones who died weren't from the Suijin Army, but Yan Laoxi was still prepared when he heard the news.
"You want to treat me as cannon fodder? You must be dreaming in your next life.”Xia Tian slammed his fist on the map.
He had already decided to rise from here.
