Chapter 18 Encounter and Countermeasures
When Gu Li spread the news to Wang Fei's ears.
Wang Fei did not expect that after all the three methods given were useful, the probability of Gu Li becoming a meteor mercenary regiment was less than 40%.
However, today's strategy only used two to successfully be elected as the head of the regiment, which made Wang Fei puzzled.
After Gu Li's explanation, Wang Fei immediately became alert. If something goes wrong, there must be evil!
Good, how can someone help Gu Li successfully be elected as the head of the mercenary regiment? Without the response of Liang Ran and others and the role of promoting it, it will certainly not be the end of the present.
A good result does not mean that things are good!
Although there was doubt in his heart, Wang Fei decided to wait and see the change for the time being before there was sufficient evidence.
In the next three days, Gu Li has just become the head of the regiment. Although he does not need to deal with daily management matters. However, as the head of the regiment, he must be clear about every decision in the regiment.
Wang Fei was completely idle. After changing his clothes, he wandered around the Stone City all day. However, because of this, he learned deeply about the origin of the Stone City.
The Stone City is five kilometers long and about three kilometers wide. The high wall and thick gate are the most basic existence to resist foreign enemies. In addition, the 30,000 boulder army of the Stone City itself, as well as more than 1,000 official mercenaries living in the city, are the most powerful force within thousands of miles around.
And through understanding, Wang Fei also knows that Ye Xingling, the current owner of the Stone City, is now in his prime. The owner's popularity in the Stone City is not low. The 30,000 boulder army was also firmly in his hands.
Especially in the past year or two, Ye Xingling has reduced the tax burden within the Stone City and has been supported by almost all residents. At present, within the Stone City, there is no place for him to intervene, only the mercenary world.
Through these understandings, Wang Fei has a general guess in his mind. However, he remained silent until there was no evidence.
"Big boss, boss! "Great good thing, great good thing!"
That night, while Wang Fei was practicing, Gu Li broke in excitedly. He roared, and his tone contained incomparable excitement.
For a moment, Gu Li's tall figure jumped in front of Wang Fei and said excitedly, " boss, let me tell you, the situation of our mercenary regiment is about to improve!"
"Take your time, what makes you so excited?" Wang Fei asked doubtfully.
"Well, today we received two big orders to escort two caravans. After some discussion, Cao Da and Legui, two deputy leaders, will escort a caravan tomorrow. As long as we complete the two tasks this time, we will get better financially soon!"
Wang Fei's heart suddenly jumped. He was a bystander and a bystander with a deep understanding of the current situation of the meteor mercenary regiment.
Although Gu Li became the head of the regiment, most of the existing power of the Meteor Mercenary Regiment is in the hands of Cao Da and Legui, two deputy commanders. The two left together, which means that the strength of the meteor mercenary regiment was suddenly reduced by two-thirds.
However, the mercenary regiment makes a living by doing tasks and earning rewards from them. Wang Fei couldn't think of a reason for Gu Li to refuse to accept two tasks at a time, but reminded him, "Second, don't send all the official members out!" This is the headquarters of the Meteor Mercenary Regiment, leaving enough guard force!"
"Haha, boss, you don't know anything!" Guli didn't care at all and explained with a smile, "Our headquarters is in the Stone City. If there is a bad person, he will definitely be hit by the Stone Army. Don't worry, the safety of the headquarters is definitely not a problem!"
"Is that right?" Wang Fei was puzzled, and the last half of the sentence was abruptly suffothed back by him, that is: if the person with bad intentions is the lord of the Stone City!
Gu Li is not a heartless person. Looking at the unnatural expression on Wang Fei's face, he asked, " boss, do you have anything else to worry about?"
"Nothing! If you have something to do, go ahead!"
Wang Fei doesn't want to say anything more, let alone disturb the enthusiasm of the other party. He needs to calm down and think about the difficulties he is about to face.
The mercenary regiment accepted the task, and he couldn't stop it. However, at this time, we must think about the way out. If you are really unfortunate to be guessed, you will not be caught off guard.
A perfect practice time for one night, just a little missed. Countless morning stars are covered by the sun. After sitting quietly all night, Wang Fei didn't come up with a good strategy.
In Stone City, there is no one familiar except my younger brother Gu Li. If you don't have a chance to ask for help, is it at the mercy of others?
No, never!
Wang Fei is not a passive person. Whether it is useful or not, he must take the initiative in his own hands. At least, I have tried my best!
After a simple wash, Wang Fei walked out. Sitting and waiting for death can't solve any problems.
When he walked out of the door, he happened to see Cao Da and Legui, two deputy regimental commanders, with the mercenaries of the brigade, set out to go outside the city to receive an escort task. The mercenaries were ambitious, and more than 60 people stood outside the door.
Mercenaries who can appear at the headquarters are all official members of the Meteor Mercenary Regiment! More than 60 people, which means that three-quarters of the strength of the mercenary regiment will participate in this mission.
Wang Fei did not put his hopes on the reserve members. The elite part had to follow the two deputy commanders to carry out the mission, and the remaining members did not have enough strength to protect the safety of the headquarters.
Looking at the mercenaries full of hope, Wang Fei's mood was even lower. Behind the pride, there is a huge conspiracy. Obviously, the conspiracy has been concealed from Gu Li, the members of the mercenary regiment, and the two experienced deputy commanders.
Everything seems justified and there is nothing suspicious about it.
Wang Fei quietly saw the mercenaries set out and embarked on a road full of thorns with hope. He walked on the street with great loss, and most of the disguise on his face was also removed, leaving only a natural innocent face.
Questions keep flashing in Wang Fei's head. While thinking, it also reasons the cause and effect. Others can't be sure, but one thing he can be sure of is that it is Liang Ran of the mercenary regiment. After all, he is Ye Xingling, the owner of the Stone City.
Unconsciously, Wang Fei has been wandering in the Stone City for a long time since the early morning. At this moment, the scorching sun shines, and the bluestone bricks of the street are shining with hot air and scorching temperature, making the street empty and few pedestrians.
Suddenly, Wang Fei's thoughts were immediately interrupted by hunger. Since last night, he hasn't entered a drop of water. The feeling of hunger and thirst makes it difficult for him to concentrate.
"Go back! Blind turning, you can't get the solution you want. Now, it's important to fill your stomach!"
Wang Fei's body was penniless, and the 100 gold coins he won in the bet with the Black Bull all made Gu Li throw himself into the mercenary regiment. At present, the financial situation of the mercenary regiment has reached that point, and he has nothing to say.
"Kid, let me catch you. Let's see where you are going this time!"
Just as Wang Fei wanted to leave, a familiar voice made him stop. Turning his head, the majestic figure of the black bull appeared in his sight.
The gloomy face of the black bull immediately appeared with excitement. He strode forward, walked to Wang Fei and shouted, "Kid, you have let me look for three days! Last time I fell, we will compare again today!"
Since the last time we lost the wine fight, Black Bull hasn't had a good time these days. One hundred gold coins is not a small amount for him. What's more, in the face of the an old face of his companions, he almost didn't get into the ground.
It's not easy to find Wang Fei today, so naturally I won't let go of the opportunity to revenge. As long as he saves his face, he is still the former Dioxide Black Bull of the Stone City.
Wang Fei looked at the angry black cow, and an idea suddenly flashed into his mind and said excitedly: Yes! Since Ye Xingling, the owner of the city, is ready to deal with the mercenary of Stone City. Then let the mercenaries unite and maybe help the Meteor Mercenary Regiment escape this disaster!
