3Guard Qiu had been paying attention to the thief who hadn't shown up yet, but had stolen things from him many times. He had no choice but to pay attention to the thief who hadn't shown up yet.    

    

Guard Qiu had completely changed his mind about the thief. He had only felt that he had been fooled by the thief. He wanted to find the thief and teach him a lesson, but now he had become the leader of the group. After having the ambition in his heart, he wanted to find out who the other party was. Then, he would recruit the other party.    

    

Unfortunately, the other party was much more capable than him. If the other party didn't show up, he wouldn't be able to find the other party at all.    

    

Regarding this matter, Guard Qiu knew that it was useless to be anxious. He could only wait for the other party to show up.    

    

"Leader, the army of the Imperial Court is less than ten miles away from us."    

    

On this day, everyone was discussing matters in the meeting room that the county magistrate had changed to when a subordinate came over to report.    

    

No one was surprised by this news. After all... They were different from the people who occupied the mountains outside. They had conquered the county and killed the officials appointed by the Imperial Court. Thus, the Imperial Court would definitely take action. However, the size of this move was questionable.    

    

The current Imperial Court was facing internal and external problems, and the combat strength of the army was continuously declining. This was a fact that many people with discerning eyes could see. Hence, as long as the Imperial Court did not send out his few elites, he did not need to worry at all.    

    

"Who is the general that came? How many people and horses are there?" Guard Qiu, oh, no, it should be the leader of the enemies now.    

    

"It's Ge Rui from the Western Army. He has about five thousand men in his army." The man reported.    

    

When they heard the names of the Western Army and Ge Rui, they felt relieved. The local army of Western Army had their own combat strength. However... They were not the elites of the imperial court. In fact, they were not even the elites of the imperial court. His equipment was average. Furthermore, this Ge Rui was not a famous general. Everyone was naturally not worried.    

    

"The dog from the Imperial Court has come at the right time. Let him have a taste of Old Chu's power." A man with a valiant expression stood up and said loudly.    

    

"That's right. These dogs from the Imperial Court can only bully unarmed civilians. If there really is a tough battle, they will definitely run faster than rabbits."    

    

"Leader, give me 3000 men. I will go and meet this Ge Rui. I will definitely kill him and make him lose his balance!"    

    

Everyone clamored. They had just taken down the county. Furthermore, not only did their own team not suffer any losses, but they also suffered no losses. After attacking the county, they had expanded by quite a bit. Hence, their morale was very high. In addition, the troops from the Imperial Court were not elites. Without a famous general, they were naturally not afraid. Hence, they took the initiative to ask for battle.    

    

Chief Chou looked at them in satisfaction. Thinking about it, a few days ago... Now, he was the leader of everyone. He had even decided the life and death of tens of thousands of people. Such a change... It made his heart flutter.    

    

At the same time, he easily took over the county town. He did not encounter any decent resistance at all. It made him feel that the Imperial Court was even more rotten than he had imagined. It could not even withstand a single blow. Originally, he had only wanted to be a free king who ate meat and drank big mouthfuls of wine. Now, he had a greater goal and ambition.    

    

However, he hadn't completely lost his mind. He knew that the team of over ten thousand people in his hands... It was his biggest reliance. Once he lost these troops... The Imperial Court would definitely not let him off. Hence... There must not be any mishaps with these tens of thousands of soldiers. In fact, they must continue to expand.    

    

"Everyone, don't worry" After Chief Chou said that, he saw that everyone had quieted down. He looked at himself, waiting for his words. "Now that we have occupied the county town, the army of the Imperial Court will definitely not give up on this place. Even if they put on a show, they will still come and attack the county. Otherwise, there will be even more people following the trend. "    

    

Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Leader Qiu continued, "So, the ones who should be anxious now should be the imperial court's army. Not us. We just need to guard this county. We just need to wait for the army of the Imperial Court to arrive. With the city walls and moat as support, it will be easier for us to defeat them. Moreover, the losses will be even smaller. "    

    

"Leader is right. I, Old Chu, am a big and rough man. I don't understand so many twists and turns. Leader, you can fight however you want."    

    

"Right, I also agree with what leader says."    

    

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Leader Qiu looked at the crowd below. The smile on his face became even more interesting, "Alright, since everyone trusts me so much, then I won't let everyone down. Everyone should know what the current situation in the Imperial Court was. The combat strength of the Imperial Court's army is no longer the same as before. Although... Even if we take the initiative to attack, we can still defeat them... However, if that's the case, we will still suffer losses... Right now, this team of over ten thousand people is what we rely on, we can't let it suffer too great of a loss... Otherwise, the Imperial Court will definitely retaliate against us crazily."    

    

"Thus, we'll defend the city and not come out. Not only will we be able to force them to retreat, but we'll also be able to kill them all. When we defeat the Imperial Court's army, our reputation will be even greater, and there will be even more people who want to join us. In that case, our team will become even stronger. Only when we have the capital to continue expanding will our lives become better and better! "    

    

Hearing Leader Qiu's words, everyone's eyes lit up. Most of them were just ordinary farmers before, but they were forced by the Imperial Court to the point that they could not continue living. That was why they raised the flag and rebelled. It was impossible for them to be too high up. Thus, now that the leader of the enemies had said so... They felt that what Leader Qiu said was indeed very reasonable.    

    

Seeing that everyone agreed with him and supported him, Leader Qiu was naturally very happy. Most of these people had come with people to seek refuge with him. Therefore... There were some loyal teams that he couldn't even order. Therefore, all he could do was to subdue these people in front of him. Only by making them work for him would his subordinates listen to him.    

    

Of course, Leader Qiu had more foresight than these people. After all, he had been in the army for a period of time. He had also climbed to become an intermediate officer. Naturally, these ordinary farmers could not compare to him. He had long thought that in the following battle, he wanted to find an opportunity to weaken the strength of these people's subordinates. He would make them cannon fodder and let those who truly listened to him survive. Only by doing so could his position be more stable.
