C63 Join Me

The Scarlet Gorge wasn't a very large flat land. At this moment, it was filled with people. Around them stood a group of armored soldiers who were constantly on guard. Some of the people below were dejected and listless.

These people were the new division and the new division of Commander Wang Erniu. The people below were the ones who had been fighting for half a month. They had eliminated all the bandits who had been captured in Scarlet Gorge. There were at least a hundred thousand bandits gathered here, and Wang Erniu only had fifty thousand men under his command.

Currently, the number of people they had captured was twice the number of their men, even though there were a lot of them. The strength of Wang Erniu's troops was very strong. This could be seen from the battle between them and the bandits. Although the army led by Wang Erniu wasn't as large as the number of bandits, the importance was the concentration of strength of Wang Erniu and the others. Moreover, their individual strength was formidable.

Although there were a lot of bandits, they were very scattered. This was because Wang Erniu and the others had launched a sneak attack, which made these bandits calm down.

"Do you know why we gathered all of you here?" Wang Erniu said after seeing that most of the bandits had gathered.

The bandits who were still thinking about their own thoughts looked towards the source of the voice. They saw a strong man standing on a hill. Behind him were some military officers.

After hearing the man's question, the bandits were all puzzled. Didn't they pull these people here to execute them? It looked like this place was just right for them to be surrounded. If they wanted to kill them, it would be very easy. But now they actually asked this question, it meant that they wouldn't kill him. At least for now, they wouldn't kill him.

"I know what you're thinking right now. You must be thinking why I won't kill you!" As soon as these words were spoken, the bandits below were all moved!

"Actually, according to our original purpose, we are going to kill all of you. You have seen our strength. To be honest, killing all of you is an easy task. The reason why we didn't kill all of you was because. . . Because. . . " Wang Erniu paused for a moment after saying that.

Those bandits opened their eyes wide and looked at Wang Erniu. They were afraid that they would miss a word. However, they found that Wang Erniu was closing his eyes slowly. They had no idea what he was doing.

"Welcome, young master!" Suddenly, a loud sound rang in the soldiers' ears. They were surprised to find that the general who had his eyes closed just now had made a strange move.

"Welcome, young master!" Even the soldiers surrounding them had made the same move as the commander. This made the bandits below very curious. Some of the bandits actually laughed at the scholars' soldiers and did the same thing.

After the soldiers finished speaking, the bandits saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives, right in front of the man who looked like the commander. Suddenly, a young man appeared. It seemed like this young man was only eleven or twelve years old. However, the bandits didn't feel anything wrong. His appearance seemed very natural. Although everyone wanted to remember his appearance, as long as they closed their eyes, they wouldn't know his appearance!

"Commander Wang, you have worked hard!" The young man who suddenly appeared said to the person behind him.

"Young Master Xie, we have completed the mission of eliminating all the bandits in the Scarlet Gorge. We have killed a total of 123,456 enemies and captured 108,964 people. We have not counted the other resources we have seized. The number of casualties in our army is zero!" After saying that, he saluted Feng Xiaoran.

"Good, very good! Thank you for your hard work, everyone!" Feng Xiaoran also made a military salute to Wang Erniu.

Feng Xiaoran and the others said this from above. The bandits below were stunned. They thought that they were very strong, but after hearing that they had killed more than a hundred thousand people and captured more than a hundred thousand people, they didn't even suffer any casualties. What kind of concept was this?

It had to be known that not all of the bandits had a person with extraordinary strength as their leader. But now, they actually said that there were no casualties. This. . . Could it be that every one of them was stronger than their so-called leaders? If that was really the case, then those people who died were too wronged.

Feng Xiaoran looked at the bandits below and couldn't help thinking about how to deal with them. Initially, he had planned to eliminate all of them, but all of them had surrendered. If he killed all of them, he wouldn't be able to keep his promise. Thinking about this troublesome matter made Feng Xiaoran think hard for many days.

Later on, he inadvertently thought of a way. That was to let all these people stay in the Scarlet Gorge mountain range. Of course, he wouldn't let them do the robbery!

"I know that all of you can't live anymore, that's why you came here to be bandits. But now, all of you are prisoners. I want to ask all of you, what do you think I should do with all of you?" Feng Xiaoran looked at the bandits and said.

The bandits below once again fell silent, but this time, the atmosphere was even more tense than before. They knew that this was the time for them to decide whether they should live or die. The words of the person earlier did not belong to this seemingly young child!

From their conversation and their actions, it could be seen that this young man was their actual leader, the one who could control their fate. Thus, at this moment, they all became silent. It wasn't that they deliberately became silent, but that they didn't know what to say!

Looking at the reactions of the bandits below, Feng Xiaoran knew that these bandits were the ones who were acting. If he didn't speak, these bandits wouldn't speak. Therefore, Feng Xiaoran continued to speak. "I won't kill you all, but your lives are mine now. I have the strength to take your lives at any time!" Feng Xiaoran said coldly.

The bandits below revealed happy expressions when they heard that they didn't need to die. However, when they heard that they could take their lives at any time, the joy on their faces vanished once again. One should know that they had heard something from Feng Xiaoran's words.

How could there not be a few heads spinning in the midst of these hundred thousand people? Therefore, the bandits were very wise to not speak and wait for Feng Xiaoran's next words.

"What I want to say is, perhaps some of you have already guessed it, and that is. . . " Feng Xiaoran paused and looked at the bandits below.

"I want all of you to follow me in the future!"

When these words came out, the bandits below were all dumbfounded! Each and every one of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say at this moment!
