Super Gene Hunting Ground

The subordinates already knew about the incident where Zuo Yun was killed by Long Xiang. Now, discovering that Cai Yang had also been killed, everyone trembled inside.

As the saying goes, a snake without a head can’t function. With the loss of their leader, hope was lost as well.

Yang Xiao jumped down from the back of the Giant Eagle, with Lan Xin and Long Xiang floating down from midair behind him.

Yang Xiao stood in the open space between the two groups and said loudly:

”My brothers and sisters, let’s not fight each other anymore. As long as you are willing to submit to me, I guarantee your safety. If you continue to resist, I will have no choice but to order your extermination.”

Yang Xiao’s words sent a shock through everyone present, and no one doubted Yang Xiao’s authority now.

Gong Yu and Dai Peng stepped forward.

Dai Peng shouted:

”Brothers, I, Dai Peng, was originally a subordinate of Xue Dong from Xiangfan. I have already led my brothers to submit to Yang Xiao. Why not follow my lead and submit to Yang Xiao, and together we unify the whole North City?”

There were still more than three thousand people present, among them more than two thousand were from Lu Sun’s subordinates from North City, and over a thousand were from Zuo Yun and Cai Yang’s.

Everyone glanced at each other, their hearts already wavering.

Someone said:

”Xiangfan City is now without a leader. In this apocalyptic era, even if we don’t submit to Yang Xiao, we will inevitably be drawn into conflicts with others. To be constantly caught up in wars, wouldn’t it be better to submit to Yang Xiao so that at least we can live in peace for a while?”

”Yes, even Xue Dong, the City King of Xiangfan, and Lu Sun, the City King of Han Capital, were no match for Yang Xiao. If we don’t submit to him, then who can we submit to?”

”Having a boss like Yang Xiao to lead us is the only way we can be safe.”

...

After a brief discussion, the vast majority began to recognize the situation and united in their thinking.

”Alright, Yang Xiao, we are willing to submit to you!”

”From now on, you are our boss.”

”We pay our respects to the boss!”

Some began to kneel, and more followed suit, until everyone was kneeling.

Yang Xiao nodded and said:

”Brothers, from now on, we are one family, to share in blessings and face hardships together. The majority of Kongming City’s terrains are already under my rule. I treat all brothers and sisters equally, so don’t worry about any unfairness. As long as everyone truly submits, I will treat everyone with sincerity!”

”Thank you, boss Yang Xiao. From now on, you are our big brother!”

...

With the danger of war lifted from their heads, everyone began to get excited.

The two teams began to cheer.

Dai Peng was originally from Xiangfan and knew many of his old comrades, making it easy for them to integrate. The two teams combined now numbered five to six thousand people.

Yang Xiao and Gong Yu, Dai Peng, Ben Guo, Xiao Lan, Lan Xin, and others hastily convened a short meeting.

”The first thing to do is to integrate the current five to six thousand people, break up the original regional organization, and re-form units according to the types of forces. Gong Yu will take the lead in this matter, with support from Dai Peng. You two reorganize the forces following the Close Combat Beast Souls, Plant Soul System, Elemental Mages, archers, and Flying People Team’s tactics to change the current team arrangement.”

Gong Yu and Dai Peng immediately replied:

”Okay!”

”The second matter is an urgent one. We must take down Xiangfan immediately, then take Han Capital by momentum and unify North City.”

”Boss, isn’t this a little rushed? Everyone has just gone through a battle and is tired; we need some time to rest,” said Gong Yu.

”I know everyone is tired. Let’s each take a few Small Blood Pills to recover. Now is when Xiangfan is at its most vulnerable. With six thousand of us going, we can surely take Xiangfan in one battle. After we take Xiangfan City, we can rest a bit and then join forces with Zhou Qiang from Shanyun City, and strike at Han Capital from two directions. Once we take down Han Capital, we can concentrate our forces to deal with the threats from Eastern Province. The current problem is the Transmission Array from Fengyang Town to Xiangfan City has been shut down. Dai Peng, you’re familiar with the area, is there any other way to enter Xiangfan City quickly?”

After pondering for a moment, Dai Peng said:

”Boss is right. Right now, there’s only a man named Huang Jun leading three thousand men defending Xiangfan, and their Combat Power is quite average. If we can quickly head to Xiangfan City, I can persuade Huang Jun to surrender. Although the Transmission Array from Fengyang Town to Xiangfan City has been closed, I believe they might not have had the time to close the rest of the arrays that lead to the suburbs of Xiangfan City. If we make haste now, we should make it in time.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao rejoiced and said:

”I had forgotten about this. Alright, you two have half an hour to reorganize the troops, then we leave immediately.”

Gong Yu laughed and said:

”The key to warfare is speed. No need to stop, let’s keep moving and organizing along the way.”

After Gong Yu spoke, he walked to the center of the troop and loudly said:

”Brothers, we are now heading straight to Fengyang Town. Listen up for my command, Close Combat Beast Souls warriors, step out and run towards the front.”

Moments later, more than two thousand people ran out from the formation and started sprinting forward.

Gong Yu then loudly exclaimed:

”Those of the Plant Soul System, Elemental Mages, archers, and the Flying People Team, follow in order and run forward.”

Soon after, the soldiers from each military class began to break free from the crowd and regrouped into new teams.

In the newly formed teams, there were people brought by Yang Xiao from Kongming City, as well as those from Xiangfan and North City.

Gong Yu said to Yang Xiao:

”Boss, I’m going to rush ahead to lead. You can hold the rear.”

Yang Xiao nodded.

Gong Yu immediately used his Qinggong skills and flew forward, quickly catching up to the first squad.

Dai Peng also followed the troops immediately.

The last group was the Flying People Team, more than two hundred people, all from Kongming City.

The troop of five to six thousand arranged themselves into a long line and ran towards Fengyang Town. Compared to the previous chasing and killing, the current team was full of new morale.

Yang Xiao and Lan Xin were still riding the Giant Eagle, flying at a low altitude. Seeing the troops on the ground, Yang Xiao suddenly had an idea and shouted loudly:

”Brothers, let’s sing! How about ’Motherland’?”

”Boss, that song is too old. How about ’Eighteen’?”

”Ha ha!”

...

Yang Xiao snorted with laughter and said:

”There are a lot of girls here, let’s liven up the atmosphere with ’Barge Hauler’s Love’.”

Long Xiang looked at Yang Xiao with surprise and said:

”’Barge Hauler’s Love’?”

Yang Xiao and Lan Xin were taken aback, almost dying of laughter, leaving Long Xiang embarrassed, not knowing what she had said wrong.

”Alright, brothers, I’ll start you off:

’Sister, you sit at the bow of the boat, brother, I walk on the shore, love like the rope of the barge, sways gently to and fro!’”

Then, five to six thousand people sang together:

”Sister, you sit at the bow of the boat, brother, I walk on the shore,”

The sonorous singing pierced the night sky, filling the apocalyptic wilderness of Shenlongjia with a hint of vitality.

Half an hour later, Gong Yu led the troops to Fengyang Town.

Dai Peng entered the Transmission Array, and indeed, found a transmission channel leading to a small town on the outskirts of Xiangfan City.

”Boss, they really haven’t had time to shut down the nearby channels.”

Yang Xiao nodded:

”It’s normal. Now all of Xiangfan is headless dragons, panic-stricken, without unified command and coordination, it’s natural to forget many things. Dai Peng, you and Gong Yu take people there immediately, all the troops will pass through the Transmission Array in order. Once you’re there, take control of the entire stronghold.”

”Yes.”

Gong Yu and Dai Peng, along with the first batch of one hundred Close Combat Beast Souls warriors, entered the Transmission Array and vanished in a flash of light.

Following that, the second batch, the third batch, the fourth batch...

Everyone took their turns to queue up, entering a hundred at a time, constantly being transported away.

Finally, Yang Xiao, along with Lan Xin, Long Xiang, and the Giant Eagle, were also transported, leaving a hundred people to defend the stronghold.
