The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Since he cannot focus on conquering the world in the short term, Fang Hao turns his attention to the current world of martial arts.

According to the intelligence gathered by his subordinate Tingfengtang, the current timeline is that almost ten years have passed since the Wangpanshan Sword Testing Conference.

In other words, Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu will soon return to the Central Plains from the Ice and Fire Island with their child Zhang Wuji.

Zhang Wuji, the son of the dimension in the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, is about to step onto the big stage of the Central Plains martial arts world.

But this has nothing to do with Fang Hao. Before his magical powers were fully developed, he had no intention of challenging Zhang Sanfeng to an arm wrestle, because that would be purely self-humiliating.

After Hua Yun went to deliver the message, the first person to arrive was Xu Da, the leader of Chiyou Hall who was in charge of the military affairs of the Hengshan righteous army.

That’s right, it’s the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty in another timeline, King Zhongshan Xu Da.

This historical celebrity is just an ordinary disciple of Mingjiao Hong Shui in the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

After Fang Hao's Hengshan righteous army became famous in Haozhou, Xu Da took the initiative to surrender, and with him came Hua Yun and others, disciples of the Hongshui Banner.

What Fang Hao didn't know was that in addition to Xu Da and Hua Yun, people including Wu Liang, Wu Zhen, and Tang Shengzong, who had served him as their leader in Mingguang County, were all founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty in another timeline.

Because they, like Zhu Yuanzhang, were born in Huaixi, these people together formed the Huaixi noble group in the early Ming Dynasty.

Of course, in the semi-fictional martial arts world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, most of these Huaixi nobles were born as disciples of the Ming Cult, and most of them, like Zhu Yuanzhang, were disciples of the Ming Cult's Flood Flag.

In this life, because of Fang Hao's sudden appearance, he was the first to become famous in the Huaixi area, and thus intercepted many elite figures.

"Master, are we going to have a war? Who are we going to fight?" Xu Da walked in hurriedly and asked.

"No rush, let's wait until everyone is here." Fang Hao said.

After hearing this, Xu Da did not continue to ask questions, but sat down on the chair in the second row below the main seat in the Juyi Hall.

Not long after, Lu Bo, the master of Jinyutang who was in charge of finance, Wu Liang, the master of Shennongtang who was in charge of farming, Wu Zhen, the master of Tiangongtang who was in charge of making farm tools and weapons, and Han Gou'er, the master of Tingfengtang who was in charge of intelligence, arrived one after another.

Although it is still a makeshift team, the internal division of labor has already begun to emerge.

Looking at the long term, Jinyutang is equivalent to the Ministry of Revenue, Tiangongtang is the Ministry of Works, Chiyoutang is the Ministry of War, and Tingfengtang is equivalent to the Imperial Guards...

Why was the Yokoyama Righteous Army able to attract so many Mingjiao heroes to join?
Fang Hao's transformation of the Hengshan righteous army and the ambition revealed in the process of farming development made Xu Da and others see Fang Hao's "kingly and hegemonic spirit"!
After everyone was seated, Fang Hao told everyone everything that Gong Jiujia of Yanyun Escort Agency had entrusted him with.

"Let's discuss it. Should we help Gong Jiujia?" Fang Hao said calmly.

Although he already had a plan in mind, this was also a good opportunity for Fang Hao to test his subordinates, so he also wanted to hear everyone's ideas.

"Master, I think we should help you. Firstly, we at Hengshanyi have always put chivalry first, and helping the poor and the needy is the purpose of our actions. Secondly, according to the intelligence I have collected, the Hongze bandits are strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Except for the Four Heroes of Hongze who are considered tough, the others are a mob." Han Gou'er spoke first.

Fang Hao nodded when he heard this. As the confidant who followed him the earliest, Fang Hao placed Han Gou'er in the key position of the leader of Tingfeng Hall. Of course, he had his considerations. Han Gou'er had made great progress by saying these two things.

"Master, I also think that we must help you with this. Now our Hengshan Yi's influence has spread to the entire Huaixi area. From now on, we can go north or south. If we go north, we will definitely be able to take the Hongze Lake waterway occupied by the Hongze bandits." Ruber analyzed.

This old butler who watched Fang Hao grow up seemed to have awakened a second spring in his career as Fang Hao's power grew.

Jin Yutang is in charge of trade, which is simply the money bag of Fang Hao's subordinates. It was also within Fang Hao's expectation that Ruber would speak from the perspective of water trade.

"Master, the reason why we cannot defeat the Mongols in a head-on battle is that we lack a cavalry that can fight on horseback. Gong Jiujia can sit in the position of chief escort in the Yanyun Escort Agency, so he should have no shortage of connections. If we can smuggle some horses here through him, we will make a fortune." When Xu Da mentioned cavalry, his eyes lit up.

The Yuan court started out as a cavalry force, and there was no shortage of horses in the Central Plains. However, it was simply impossible for "rebels" like them to get the best war horses.

In fact, this was also what Fang Hao was considering. Xu Da was the only one on the field who thought the same as him. He was indeed a general who could be crowned king with a different surname in another timeline!
"What you said makes sense. Everyone knows that Lord Zhou was defeated and killed in Yuanzhou a year ago. We should keep a low profile in terms of military preparations, but we can strike hard in the martial arts world. After all, the Yuan court also hopes to see us Han people fight each other."

Fang Hao sneered and said, "Master Xu, I order you to prepare 500 men and horses to follow me to destroy the bandits of the Hongze Gang."

"Yes!" Xu Da received the order and said, "In the past few months, brothers have either been working as ironworkers or farming. It's time to eat some meat!"

The combat effectiveness of an army is gained through killing, and Fang Hao and Xu Da are obviously well aware of this.

"Lu Bo, the supply of food and grass will be handed over to Jin Yutang. As for you, Han Gou'er, Tingfengtang must collect all the information about the Hongze Gang for me within two days." Fang Hao said.

"Yes!" Rube and Han Gou'er answered in unison.

After giving orders to everyone, the war machine of Yokoyama's righteous army started to move at full speed.

Instead, the leader Fang Hao became idle.

Thinking of the eighteen clay dolls presented by Gong Jiujia, Fang Hao couldn't wait to rush back to his room to verify his guess.

Looking at the 18 vivid clay dolls of different shapes, Fang Hao thought to himself: "These clay dolls are indeed engraved with the entry-level internal skills of the Shaolin School, but if I'm not mistaken, there is a mystery underneath the clay dolls!"

Just in case, Fang Hao first used pen and ink to record the basic Shaolin internal skills on the clay doll.

Then, Fang Hao picked up one of the clay dolls, secretly used his internal strength, and gently wiped it. At this moment, the powder, oil paint and mud base wrapped on the surface of the clay doll fell off, revealing a layer of painted wood surface inside.

"Sure enough, the clay painting is just a cover-up, and the wooden paint is the real appearance!" Fang Hao worked one by one, peeling off all the clay powder on the clay dolls, revealing naked wooden arhats.

These wooden arhats are coated with a layer of tung oil and covered with black lines representing the meridians of the human body.

They are exquisitely carved, lifelike, with different postures and extremely funny expressions, and their appearance is completely different from the original clay dolls.

"It is indeed true. This is... Arhat's magic skill to subdue demons!" Fang Hao said excitedly. (End of this chapter)
