Chapter 11: Desiring to Go to Shaolin Temple to Beat Up Juewu!
This result was somewhat unexpected.

Fan Gui on the stage was also a little confused.

He never expected that the swordsman who came up to instruct him would be so incompetent, and he was chopped to death with a single blow.

Several soldiers quickly carried Liu Daotong's body to the area below the arena where Mo Fei was.

"Your Excellency, Commander Liu is dead."

Mo Fei walked off the stage, somewhat speechless. He first looked at Liu Daotong's chest wound, and after gathering his emotions for a moment, he feigned grief and said in a mournful voice:

"Alas! Brother Liu, you are so young yet you have already attained the position of commander of the sword; you should be a pillar of the nation."

Unfortunately, he died young in a martial arts competition. What a tragic and lamentable end.

But weapons have no eyes on the fighting stage, and this was an unintentional mistake. You should give Liu Daotong a proper burial.

If that were the case, it would define the nature of the matter: swords and spears have no eyes, and this was an unintentional mistake.

Fan Gui, who had come with the soldiers, was deeply moved when he heard Mo Fei speak up for him. He immediately stepped forward, bowed deeply, and prostrated himself on the ground.
“Your Excellency, this was an unintentional mistake by Fan Gui. Your Excellency is kind, and Fan Gui will serve you to the death from now on.”

Mo Fei looked at Fan Gui, who was kneeling on the ground with a full beard, and saw how sensible he was, and his regard for him increased even more.

"In the arena, swords and spears have no eyes, and life and death are predestined. Let's leave it at that."

"As for you, Fan Gui, since you defeated Liu Daotong, you shall take on the position of Daotong from now on."

Fan Gui was overjoyed by Mo Fei's appointment.

He never expected that after making such a big mistake, not only would he be unharmed, but he would also be promoted.

Overjoyed, he didn't know how to express his gratitude to Mo Fei.

"Fan Gui bows and thanks you for saving my life, sir. From now on, I will brave any danger, sir, to do whatever you command."

"it is good!"

"Call your fellow villager Li Hu over. I have something I want to say to him."

Mo Fei returned to the arena and soon Li Hu arrived. Guided by the guards, Li Hu cautiously approached the high platform.

"Li Hu greets Your Excellency, the Garrison Commander!"

Li Hu was nearly two meters tall, with muscles as hard as iron and large, calloused hands, clearly someone who had practiced martial arts for many years.

Mo Fei looked at the burly man in front of him and was quite satisfied.

"You are very good, no less than Fan Gui."

"Now that Liu Daotong is dead, his position as Daotong Battalion Commander is vacant. Li Hu, you will fill that position."

After Li Hu thanked him and withdrew, Mo Fei then said to the sword commanders beside him:

"I am very satisfied with the results of this military exercise. You can spend the next few days organizing and summarizing, and recruiting the missing soldiers. In a few days, there may be a major battle waiting for you."

…………

The matter of the all-army military exercise has been settled.

Over the next few days, Mo Fei supervised the recruitment of soldiers while appointing personnel to some important positions.

When the officer in charge of recruiting soldiers outside the camp came to report that the recruitment quota had been filled.

Could it be that they have essentially seized control of military power?

"After the soldiers have trained for a few more days, it will be time to go to Shaolin and cause trouble for that old bald monk Juewu!" In the memories of the predecessor, there was quite a bit of resentment towards Juewu.

That old bald monk can't distinguish right from wrong; it was clearly Xinbao who was up to no good.

In the end, the blame fell on him and Zhang Junbao, and they were expelled from Shaolin Temple.

Of course, this is just one of the reasons why Mo Fei is causing trouble for Shaolin.

Another purpose was that he had his eye on the Shaolin Temple's collection of martial arts books.

It is important to know that Shaolin has been passed down for many years and has always been the orthodox school of martial arts in the world. The temple has collected countless martial arts classics.

If we could seize it and use it for our own purposes, the strength of the officers and soldiers in the army would surely be greatly enhanced.

As for soldiers, their individual combat strength doesn't actually play a significant role in war.

On the contrary, strict discipline, uniformity, advancing at the sound of the drum and retreating at the sound of the gong are more practical.

Imagine an individual's martial prowess; unless one has honed it to an extraordinary level, how much room for maneuver would you have on a battlefield with tens of thousands of people?

Amidst a rain of arrows and a battlefield teeming with swords and spears, the most practical martial arts techniques are those of Fan Gui and Li Hu, characterized by their sweeping and powerful movements.

Mo Fei was handling official business when a messenger's announcement suddenly came from outside.

"Reporting to the Garrison Commander, Lord He Kun has returned from the capital."

"Oh... He Kun is back?"

Los Angeles isn't far from the capital, but He Kun needs to help Mo Fei locate the command center, so it will likely take quite a while.

When He Kun returned to the camp, he found that the military camp had undergone earth-shattering changes compared to when he left.

Whether it's the strength of the defense, the morale of the troops, their equipment and uniforms, or their overall presence, it's simply incomparable to what it used to be.

When He Kun saw Mo Fei again, he looked at the man dressed in black armor, sitting cross-legged in the main seat of the camp, staring at him.

He Kun felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake or a ferocious beast; a chill suddenly rose from his heart.

"Lord He! How is it? Have you finished the task I assigned you?"

When He Kun saw that Mo Fei had asked, he quickly and respectfully replied:

"My lord, this trip to the capital was quite successful."

"However, the person I found asked for too much money, and the money and goods I brought were not enough to satisfy his appetite."

So although the position of commander was officially established, it was prefixed with the word "acting."

"Oh! Not enough money?"

Mo Fei was slightly surprised at first, and after a moment of silence, he spoke:
"Let them take my place!"

In truth, Mo Fei didn't care whether he was acting commander or not. As long as he could control the army for a period of time, Mo Fei was confident that even if the emperor came, he wouldn't be afraid of the soldiers defecting.

"You did a great job; you didn't let me down."

While saying this, Mo Fei secretly sneered. He had given He Kun tens of thousands of taels of gold to come to the capital, but the people of the capital were still not satisfied. Their appetite was truly enormous.

"Wait! What you're swallowing now, you'll have to spit out later."

I am deeply grateful for the votes from He Tengxiang and Light Years! Thank you so much!
