Ten Thousand Troops!

Jin Sung has his hands clasp in front of his face while he contemplating something. "Ignacio! About reinforcing the city, cancel that, take everything valuable from the sects and pile them up, after I examine them you can distribute them to our soldier and tell our soldier to be ready to pack up, we will leave the city as soon as possible!" Hearing this Ignacio was flabbergasted."Lea... Leave the city? But sir we just took it for ourselves it would be a waste to abandon?" Ignacio didn't want to question Jin Sung but he really has no idea why they need to leave the city. Hearing this Jin Sung chuckle while shaking his head."Ignacio! we are currently a rebel, taking the city doesn't mean we take the whole nation, the emperor would command his army to surround us and destroy us after that he would put people that he can trust to control the city!" Jin Sung said before taking a piece of paper to draw on. Ignacio was aghast and he shivers when he thought of the consequences, but then he smiles in confidence."But sir, our weapons are top-notch, even an ordinary person can kill a cultivator with this weapon! So I don't think we need to worry sir, let me lead the soldier to put holes in their bodies!" "This is not as simple as charging at their headquarters because this time, they are prepared, we can't only use brute force to fight against them, we are too few and they are too many, we need to trim their numbers, to do that we need to eat them bit by bit, we will bribe their commander, and coax their soldier to join us until then we can't fight tens of thousands of them head-on with a mere 370 of soldiers!" Jin Sung's hand never stops drawing on the piece of paper while he explains his reason to Ignacio. Ignacio still isn't convinced he believed that with Jin Sung's power overtaking the Theulux empire would be easy. "Then why not we use the weapon that you used to destroy the castle to scare them?! With that, I believe none of them would dare to fight against you, My lord!" Jin Sung's hand pauses and his mind works like a piston to think of various reasons to not use the weapon because the weapon cost 1,500 and whenever the user activated its special abilities it will break which means Jin Sung have to buy a new one again. "It won't be very effective to scare them with that, because the weapon has its limit and those guys wouldn't be scared because they can separate themself to reduce the effectiveness of the weapon, all it's good for is to blow up walls or buildings" When Ignacio heard this, he realizes it was true, the weapon indeed had its limit that it can only be used once and although he didn't know if Jin Sung can make it again he knew that Jin Sung doesn't want to use the weapon frequently, thinking about this Ignacio thought of rebelling rise again. 'If I join the other sect again would they accept me? No, they wouldn't I'm basically a traitor and no one would accept a traitor! I can only depend on this guy to bring me to the top now!' Ignacio took a deep breath and glance at Jin Sung. "Then Sir, what would we do after leaving the city?!" Hearing this Jin Sung smirk and gave the piece of paper to Ignacio. "Remember to do it as fast as you can, time is not waiting for us!" Ignacio looks at the piece of paper in detail and he was startled."Yes Sir!" Ignacio saluted before leaving. *** In the capital city of Theulux Empire, Nova Vox in a throne hall the emperor of Theulux is sitting on his golden throne, he wears a golden dragon robe and an imperial crown on his head."The 3 sects in Xiangwei city had been destroyed?" The emperor was like a statue with no expression on his face. "Yes, your majesty our informant has some information about the perpetrator, the one who destroyed the 3 sects is a man in a black suit, his whole body is covered and his face is hidden behind a mask, in a single night, he destroyed the 3 sects and also able to recruit some of the sect members!" The servant kowtowed before saying. The emperor without looking at the servant replied. "Tell the Sunford city and Brineport city to kill the rebel and execute the traitor!" Hearing this the servant had a bitter smile on his mouth. "I'm sorry your majesty but it seems that it won't be enough to destroy them, the reason why the man in black suit is able to destroy the 3 sect is that he has an artifact that shoots a deadly projectile that can penetrate steel!" Hearing this the statue-like emperor had a sharp gleam flashed in his eyes. "Hoo! Then send the soldier our best armor, and send 2 legions to Xiangwei City!" Hearing this, the servant stand to his feet and bowed. "Yes, your majesty!" After the emperor's command, the soldier of Sunford city and Brineport city march towards Xiangwei. *** In an underground base, Jin Sung is currently in a room sitting at his desk, the interior of the room is just like a cave with a few lamp-like crystals that emitted soft light. Jin Sung stares intensely at the paper in his hands. "Ignacio! How's the status of the army?" Ignacio is currently in a parade rest position in front of the desk. "Yes sir, The soldiers are currently working on the cave that you design, they also built the storages point that you told sir!" Jin Sung takes a quill dip it in the ink and starts to write on a paper."The Spy group I told you to create have you choose the right men for the job?" The sound of the quill scratching the paper didn't stop. "Yes sir, the group name is CIA just like you requested!" Ignacio had a demeanor of a soldier in him, one look at his face and you know he is a disciplined soldier. The very reason why Jin Sung was so pleased with this man."Tell some of the men that have leadership capability to meet me, you would have too much burden if I tell you to lead all of the soldiers. Oh and don't worry you would be promoted as a Lieutenant and you would have 15 soldiers directly under your commands!" Jin Sung's without even looking at Ignacio knows what he was thinking. "Thank you sir, I will-" Before Ignacio able to finish his words a soldier dash in a hurry and barge into the room."Sir! Private Joseph report!" "What is it?" Seeing the soldier in a hurry Jin Sung pauses his hands and asks directly to the point. "Yes sir, Armies is currently marching towards Xiangwei City from 3 different directions sir, 1,000 from the west, 1,000 from the east, and 10,000 from the south sir!" Hearing this Jin Sung was shocked, he didn't expect the response would be this fast and ferocious but he can't show it on his face."Anything else?" "Yes sir, all of their soldiers are wearing heavy and thick armor and most of them bring a longbow!" "Alright, you are dismissed!" Jin Sung waved his hand and proceed to write on the piece of paper. Joseph Snap to attention before marching to leave. "What do you think?" Jin Sung look at ignacio. "I think leaving the city is a good decision sir!" "No! What do you think about the armies, I expect them to come prepared but they even prepared longbows and heavy armor not to mention they send more than 10.000 troops!" Ignacio contemplates for a while before he replied."I think they know more about us than we think sir!" Jin Sung nod."Yes, I believe they have a spy group that monitors every city under the Theulux Empire!" "Ca...Can we win sir?" Hearing this Jin Sung smirk."Of course, we can!" ... When Joseph report to Jin Sung every soldier inside the cave also knew about the news. "Did the Theulux empire really send 10.000 troops?!!" one of the soldiers said in a wide room that seems like a cafeteria for the soldier. "Yea not to mention they use heavy armor and longbows those things are expensive." one of the soldiers said after he drinks a gulp of alcohol. "What should we do, there are only 300 of us and 10.000 of them we can't win this war." the man whisper he doesn't dare to cause panic. "We'll just see the situation if there is hope to win, we'll stay but after what I saw to that castle that time I think there is a high chance that we could win!" "I agree, our leader could always take out an artifact that could solve the problem so we don't have to worry!" This kind of discussion is happening everywhere in the cafeteria. "Silent!!" A loud voice disrupts the soldier's discussion "You all don't need to panic, we will win this war because our commander had a great plan and great weapon to destroy the enemy, in 5 minutes you all ordered to come to the meeting room, make sure you come if you don't want to die!" After saying that Ignacio left the cafeteria. After Ignacio left, one of the soldiers hit the table with his mug in anger."That bastard is getting more arrogant by the day!" "Let him be, he doesn't realize that he's just a dog to the leader!" "Enough about him, tell me what do you think about the grand plan our commander has!" "I'm not sure what kind of plan that makes him confident to defeat 10.000 men with 370 but if he said he have a weapon that able to do it then I would believe it!" "Hump, if he lies to us then I would just run away to other empires, lead a new life and forget about this all, to hell with his powerful artifact if I can't live to use it then it would be better to not have it at all!!" One of the men hit the table with his palm, and stand to his feet "You would betray him after he gives us all the artifact inside the sect storage?!" "Hmph, those artifacts aren't worth my life, if I work hard enough soon or later I can get my own artifacts!" The one who defended Jin Sung stare at the man."You are an ingrate person, our sect treated us like slaves, we kill thousands of monsters only to get a few contribution points and a few golds but our commander rewarded us for only pointing guns and pulling triggers, what more can you ask for!" Hearing this the man who complains sat down, take his beer mug and take a sip of his drink. "You're right I should be grateful to him!" then he drinks until his beer mug is empty. The other soldiers hearing their quarrel also seem to be discussing something, the cafeteria seems like it's getting noisier after their discussion. But of course, those 2 soldiers were acting, they were paid actors by Jin Sung so the other soldier wouldn't likely defect to the enemy.
