Chapter 390: Advancing South
Lu Tianhao frowned and thought hard for a long time, and finally sorted out the whole story in his mind.
After a while, he slowly raised his head, looked at Lu Yunjiao and Lu Yunfeng with a serious gaze, and then spoke slowly.
“It’s not surprising at all that your whereabouts would be exposed.
Think about it, you have an army of more than 10,000 people.
In this way, they entered the mountains with high peaks and dense forests in a mighty manner and began the search operation.
How was it possible that we were not discovered by others along the way?
What's more important is that your team is composed entirely of women!
This is undoubtedly as eye-catching as a bright light in the dark night.
When this news spread, there was no need to think too much, the Ma family army could easily guess that you were the National Salvation Army.
There is another crucial point. I am afraid that even your true identities have now been completely exposed.
That is why the Ma family army is sending a large number of troops to encircle and suppress you at all costs this time.
The real purpose is most likely to capture you two sisters alive.
Because once they succeed in doing this, they will have a powerful bargaining chip that can threaten me."
After hearing this, Lu Yunjiao and Lu Yunfeng looked at each other, and it seemed that most of the doubts in their hearts disappeared in an instant.
Then, Lu Yunjiao nodded thoughtfully and said softly, "According to what you said, everything does make sense.
It turns out that the reason why the Ma family army went to great lengths to send troops to encircle and suppress us was because of this.
The ultimate goal is to capture me and Lu Yunfeng, and then use this as leverage to threaten the National Salvation Army."
Lu Tianhao nodded slightly and said in agreement, "That's indeed the case!
Now, the Southwestern Army Group, led by Zheng Cheng himself, is truly unstoppable and unstoppable!
They advanced triumphantly all the way, defeating the Ma family army without any chance of fighting back and forcing them to retreat again and again.
Moreover, the size of the Southwestern Army Group is still growing day by day. Its powerful momentum and strength have already made the Ma family army in the three provinces extremely panic-stricken.
If the current situation continues to develop, it won’t be long before the entire three southwestern provinces will be completely captured by the fierce army led by Zheng Cheng.
Under such circumstances, if the true identities of the two of you are accidentally exposed, how could the Ma family army miss such a great opportunity in vain? "
Lu Yunfeng was so angry that her eyebrows raised, her teeth clenched, and she shouted at Lu Tianhao angrily.
"Brother! The Ma family army bullies us so recklessly. You must avenge us no matter what and take revenge for this blood feud!"
Lu Tianhao's face was stern, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He snorted coldly and responded in a decisive tone.
"Humph! Now that I've come here in person, how can I let these villains go so easily!"
Lu Yunjiao said with a worried look on her face, "Brother, even if we gather all our forces now, we will only have more than 30,000 people at most!
Facing this current situation, how should we launch a counterattack?" Her eyes were full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Lu Tianhao just smiled slightly, appearing confident, and spoke slowly.
“I’m sure you all know very well how our National Salvation Army has grown and developed.
Why worry about not having enough manpower? We can always recruit new soldiers!
Otherwise, how could the Southwestern Army Group grow larger and larger in battle?
Doesn't this just reflect the fine tradition of our National Salvation Army - recruiting soldiers while fighting, and as the battle progresses, the number of troops will naturally increase!
Now that I am here in person, I don't have to worry about shortages of weapons, ammunition, food and other supplies.
In this case, are you still worried about not being able to recruit enough soldiers?
After you entered the mountains, you should have discovered quite a few people, right?"
At this time, Lu Yunfeng quickly replied: "Yes, this time we went deep into the mountains and indeed found a large number of people.
A rough estimate is that there are about 50,000 people!
If it weren't for these people, our food wouldn't be consumed so quickly!
If it weren't for the shortage of food and we wanted to leave the mountains quickly and go to the surrounding areas to purchase more food, how could I leave the mountains so easily?
If it weren't for this reason, how could we have ended up being surrounded and besieged by the brutal and notorious Ma family army?"
Lu Tianhao comforted, "I will help you get revenge!"
Lu Yunjiao asked softly, "Brother, are you planning to recruit soldiers from these 50,000 people?"
Lu Tianhao nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with his sister, and then analyzed, "That's right.
Judging from the current situation, these more than 50,000 civilians are indeed an important source of recruiting soldiers for us.
If the recruitment requirements were stricter, perhaps only more than 5000 soldiers who met the standards could be recruited.
But if the conditions were slightly relaxed, we would probably be able to recruit tens of thousands of people with aspirations to join our team.
Right now we need more people, so I decided to relax the recruitment conditions so that we can recruit more soldiers and strengthen our forces."
Having made up his mind, Lu Tianhao acted promptly and immediately sent his capable men to start recruiting soldiers.
Those who were entrusted with the important task were fully aware of the importance of this mission and did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and took quick action.
They went deep into the people to publicize the recruitment policy and carefully screened every applicant.
For a time, the entire region was bustling with activity because of this large-scale recruitment campaign.
Since the conditions for recruiting soldiers this time were relatively relaxed, the result was just as Lu Tianhao had guessed, and they successfully recruited tens of thousands of soldiers!
Faced with such a large number of new recruits, Lu Tianhao acted decisively and quickly took out a large number of training cabins.
In order to train this group of new recruits into an elite force as quickly as possible, Lu Tianhao did not hesitate to spend a full 20 points.
Most of the soldiers were trained to become elite soldiers, and a small number were trained to become special forces and kings of soldiers.
These tens of thousands of soldiers were organized into a complete brigade in accordance with the army's organization requirements.
Lu Tianhao carefully selected a group of people with good physical fitness and abilities from among the many civilians and formed a militia guard team.
For some of the militiamen, Lu Tianhao also used training cabins to provide them with intensive training.
As for the rest of the militia, those companions who have received professional training are arranged to teach and train them step by step.
It is worth mentioning that this militia guard team built by Lu Tianhao himself is equipped with first-class weapons and equipment.
Having such a powerful and well-equipped militia guard as a backing will undoubtedly effectively protect the lives and property of the remaining people.
Lu Tianhao led a large army and headed straight towards the south. He was ready to advance fully to the south.
