Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

If the time stated by the Beggar Gang intelligence disciple at Shaolin that day is correct, then it should have been less than three months since the rebel army started its uprising.

In less than three months, they've taken over the entire Jiangnan region! They've even begun to expand into the surrounding areas. Isn't this speed simply too astonishing?

It's like a sweeping force!

But after traveling all the way to the south of the Yangtze River, what I saw and heard in half a day originally made me full of doubts, but now when I think about it carefully, it seems to be vaguely consistent?

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the leading soldier thought that he was still hesitant, so he said again: "Our rebel army treats people very well, and it is a righteous army that speaks for the people and saves the people of the world. Why don't you join it and contribute to the world." 970 Qiao Feng finally came back to his senses a little. After hearing what he said, he didn't know what to say. Not to mention that he didn't know the specific situation of the rebel army. Even if he knew, the bold statement of saving the world was a bit too much.

Although it does look extraordinary...

He shook his head secretly and asked, "You said the treatment is excellent. How is it excellent?"

Qiao Feng asked these questions not because he wanted anything, but simply to get some intelligence about the rebel army.

Without the leading soldier having to speak, one of the five took the initiative to speak. "To join the rebel army, you'll first undergo a month of training. They'll teach you martial arts, literacy, and military tactics, and you'll eat three full meals a day. After training, you'll become a true soldier of the rebel army. You'll receive a monthly salary, which is sufficient for everyone. You won't need anything! You'll also receive a monthly allowance for things like clothing and food. You won't need to spend your monthly salary, so you can save it."

As they were talking, not only the soldier who started talking couldn't help but curl up his lips and laugh, the other four also had happy expressions on their faces, and it was obvious that they were very satisfied with their treatment.

"..."

Chapter 468: Complex! Doubt!

Qiao Feng is in a strange mood right now, feeling confused as if he has heard too many unbelievable things.

You said the new recruits need a month of training. That's nothing. All proper military training requires drills, that's normal. This time is actually less. However, considering that they are the rebels, not the regular army of the court, it's normal that they don't pay much attention to the training of soldiers. In the past, he had seen civil unrest, but training? Not at all. Those who survived the pile of corpses are elite soldiers. He was a little surprised that the rebels could give the new recruits a month of training time, but he didn't expect that this was the least surprising thing in the other party's words.

Martial arts, literacy, military tactics, each of these sounds like a joke when mentioned.

The martial arts were fine, and I could barely understand the training of soldiers, but the last two were truly unheard of. Is there any army in this world that teaches soldiers to read and write, and the art of war?!

Not to mention all the countries in the world, I'm afraid there is no precedent in history! ?

As for the issue of daily treatment, it is even more severe than the treatment of soldiers since the Song Dynasty.

The full payment of one month's salary may seem ordinary, but it is actually incredible.

Which army these days doesn't drain the blood of its soldiers and collect empty salaries?

The monthly salary is stipulated as such, but if 60% is paid, it is a mercy from the commander. What is the point of dreaming of paying the full salary?

Not to mention the issue of military subsidies. If you have any, they will be deducted from you. Don't even mention it if you can't get it.

To be honest, the treatment of the rebels can indeed be considered very good. If the above conditions are added, there is no need to say more.

Qiao Feng's first reaction to this was disbelief, but after thinking about it carefully, he had to admit that this was very likely true.

Firstly, as soldiers, there is no need for them to lie about this. If there is really unfair treatment, they, as stakeholders, will only be more anxious and angry than anyone else. How could they be so happy and cheerful?

And there is no need for the other party to lie to him.

Besides, from what he saw, the other party had indeed learned some pretty good martial arts, and it was not just superficial learning, but rather sophisticated and exquisite. What they said about teaching martial arts was obviously true. As for literacy and military tactics, which could not be seen, some clues could be glimpsed from their words.

If he were really a private, would he be able to speak so coherently?

Qiao Feng pondered for a moment, then bowed and declined, "Thank you for your understanding. Unfortunately, I have other things to attend to right now and cannot join the rebel army for the time being. If..."

He paused, but didn't finish his words. He just bowed again and said, "Qiao will take his leave first!"

As he said this, he was about to get on his horse and leave.

"Wait a minute!"

The leading soldier called out to him. Qiao Feng's expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly on guard. He turned around and asked, "I wonder...anything else you can teach me?"

He did not completely trust these five soldiers. Even though he listened to what they just said and believed it, he still maintained some doubts.

As for being on guard...

How can you not be on guard when you encounter the army these days?

Whether they are government soldiers or bandits, which one can be good when facing the people?

Qiao Feng had traveled extensively and had led the elite troops of the Beggar Gang to the north to engage in bloody battles. He was not unfamiliar with this type of soldier, but was very familiar with them.

Know the ins and outs of it.

When he first saw the five rebel soldiers, he didn't show it on his face, but he was secretly alert and cautious in his heart.

Although their behavior was not domineering and their words and attitudes were unusually better than those of the border and wing troops, the deterrent effect of him killing the leader with one palm might have been there.

Therefore, Qiao Feng did not regard it as normal.

And now...

But he didn't know why the other party called him.

if......

He really has evil intentions and wants to harm...

So how should he deal with it?

Qiao Feng frowned slightly. If he encountered ordinary soldiers, he would teach them a lesson. Even if the situation got too serious, he would beat them to death.

But the other side is a righteous army, and because of Mr., he is reluctant to kill them...

The leading soldier, unaware of Qiao Feng's true intentions, simply explained, "My dear fellow, although we are willing to believe what you say and don't think someone like you could be a bandit, we are still unsure of your identity. Since you've appeared here, there's inevitably some suspicion. We must return with you and conduct a thorough investigation before we can let you go."

This is another reason why I am willing to discuss it in detail.

It is true that they wanted to recruit him, but they were not sure of his identity and had some doubts. Therefore, they wanted to let him go back with them first. No matter what happened, at least he was there and everything would be easy.

Qiao Feng frowned, secretly feeling that what the other party said made some sense, but this made him even more suspicious of his purpose.

His tone unconsciously became stiff: "What if Qiao doesn't agree?"

"Of course we have to follow the rules to capture you first and then conduct a thorough investigation!" Another one of the five people spoke up.

The others didn't say anything, but their expressions became serious.

"My dear man, if you are not a criminal, there is nothing to worry about. Once you have verified the details, we will release you immediately."

Qiao Feng sneered, "How can we conclude and verify this? Isn't it something you can decide on your own? Besides, I'm not from Jiangnan. I just arrived in Jiangnan less than half a day ago and encountered this incident. Where are you going to investigate?"

"Don't worry, my good man. My rebel army has its own way and will never wrongly accuse a good person!" The leader said, and then seemed to think of something and continued, "Besides, since you've just arrived in Jiangnan, you probably don't have an ID card. When the time comes, we can check it carefully. We can also help you get a travel permit. You must know that under our rebel army's rule, without an ID card or a travel permit, you can't take a single step."

"......" Qiao Feng was silent for a moment, then asked, "If this is the case, how long will it take to endure?"

"At the slowest, it will take one day; at the fastest, it will take two hours."

The leader was slightly relieved to see that his attitude had softened a bit. He had seen with his own eyes how powerful the other party was, so it was naturally a good thing if they could avoid a conflict.

Qiao Feng pondered for a while, and finally nodded slightly.

This was not a sign of surrender. Firstly, the other party's words and attitude were always sincere and honest. Although he had some doubts, he could still feel it. Secondly, he didn't know whether the identity card and travel certificate the other party mentioned were true or not, but it would be a good idea to find out a little bit so that he could make plans. Finally, he might be able to take this opportunity to get a glimpse of the rebel army's details, which was the main reason why he was willing to agree.

Chapter 469 Qiao Feng: All previous speculations and predictions were extremely wrong!

Two hours later.

Inside a military camp.

"The matter has been thoroughly investigated, Brother Qiao. We apologize for troubling you for some time. We are just following the usual procedures, so I hope you don't mind. This... is your proof of travel. With this, you won't be in any trouble when under the rule of our rebel army."

The leading soldier handed a stamped document to Qiao Feng.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but start to suggest: "Brother Qiao, you are a capable person, and your martial arts skills are really amazing. If you can join our rebel army, you will definitely stand out and make great contributions. You will have a bright future. Why not join?"

Qiao Feng looked at the document in his hand with a complicated look. After hearing what the other party said, he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Following the other party here, what he saw and heard really moved him.

One is that the previous speculation was verified.

All the members of this rebel army are skilled in martial arts.

Although he cannot be called a true master, but in the martial arts world, judging only by the level of martial arts, he is also a pillar of a faction, just like the cloth bag elders of the Beggar Gang where he was before.

357 Things to know...

According to what the other party said, they are all new recruits of the rebel army!

If even the new recruits are like this, what about the real elite soldiers in the army?!

How terrible that would be!

An army composed entirely of martial arts masters! ?

Qiao Feng, who had led a powerful force of the Beggars' Sect, knew very well how huge a boost this would bring to the army's combat power!

and......

Qiao Feng glanced around and saw that there were obviously more than a hundred people in this military camp, at least five hundred.

When he first arrived here, he took a quick look and saw five or six similar military camps a little further away.

If these were all new recruits of the rebel army, they would all be at this level.

That is a group of 3,000 elite soldiers who are proficient in martial arts!

Thinking about it for a moment, Qiao Feng felt his scalp tingling and was secretly terrified.

He thought that his martial arts skills were quite good, and he thought that he could protect himself as long as he was not in a situation where he was surrounded by a large army.

Even if he faced two or three hundred soldiers alone, he might still be able to charge and kill them.

Relying on his strong martial arts skills, it might be inevitable to get injured or seriously injured, but he still has some confidence in achieving this.

But here...

Let alone two or three hundred people, even if twenty or thirty of them came together to surround and kill him, it would be difficult for him to withstand it.

And these are just the results of the rebel army's training in just one month!

As time goes by, these soldiers' inner strength will grow stronger, their martial arts skills will become more sophisticated, and their combat experience will become richer. By then, what kind of powerful army will they be?

The strength of the rebel army was simply shocking! !

Qiao Feng was shocked by this!

And...the shock brought to him by the rebels was more than just that.

The strong personal qualities of soldiers are undoubtedly an important factor affecting the combat effectiveness of the army.

But the rebel army can ensure the ultimate discipline and order while making every soldier strong.

This is especially terrifying!

Although Qiao Feng had not learned any military tactics, he had fought in the north and had accumulated experience in leading troops in bloody battles. He knew very well what terrifying and extreme combat power such a powerful army that could also enforce discipline could unleash!

The quick and efficient attack and killing of hundreds of bandits in the past was a clear proof of this!

Qiao Feng took a deep breath and smiled bitterly in his heart.

He had previously believed that the rebel army had little chance of winning against the imperial army, but now it seemed that with the rebel army's military might and might, even these new recruits could be considered the strongest in the world, let alone the true elite of the rebel army!

Not to mention, the rebel army now occupies the entire Jiangnan region and has begun to attack Jinghu and Liangzhe. If they can replicate the sweeping momentum they had over Jiangnan!

In a few months, wouldn't the rebels be able to occupy several routes of territory?!

And if they occupied several areas, then the premise that "the righteous army could use the power of one area to fight against the power of the Song Dynasty" that he believed at that time would no longer exist!

Although the size of the territories is still disparate, if you think about it carefully, you will find that if the rebel army really seizes this essential land in the south, then it will actually cut off the north-south traffic of the Song Dynasty. Although the Song Dynasty still has most of its territory, it is no longer connected. How much impact will this have on the entire situation?

It can be said to be to the extent of cutting off the country's destiny!

Moreover, the areas occupied by the rebels are the financial center of the Song Dynasty and are densely populated areas. The loss of these territories will definitely weaken the national strength of the court to a great extent!

As one thing grows stronger, the other shrinks. In this way, all previous speculations and predictions are extremely wrong!

All wrong!

If the entire rebel army is really as he sees and thinks, then it is not impossible for them to succeed!

Or rather, it is very likely!
