Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

This is no longer within the realm of martial arts struggles; it's a strategic vision encompassing all aspects of life!

Looking at Qin Han, Yang Xiao seemed to see the spirited and ambitious Yang Dingtian, the leader of the Yang Cult, who once pointed out the direction of the country and wanted to establish a great empire.

Back then, Yang, the leader of the Ming Cult, also wanted to make a name for himself. With hundreds of thousands of disciples, the Four Great Protectors, the Five Wanderers, the Five Elements Banners, and other talented generals, who would want to be just a leader?

Only Yang Xiao knew about this.

Unfortunately.

The leader of the Yang Cult disappeared halfway through his entrepreneurial endeavor...

If Qin Han and Xiao Zhao hadn't discovered the remains, they probably would still be unaware that they had died in the secret chamber.

Yang Dingtian had lofty ambitions, while Qin Han possessed the means and mindset to turn those ambitions into reality!

Yang Xiao knelt on one knee, his voice filled with reverence.

"Your Excellency's wisdom and foresight are truly admirable; your subordinates are completely convinced!"

"We are completely convinced!"

Wei Yixiao, the Five Wanderers, the Five Elements Flag Master...

The Ming Cult's high-ranking members all knelt on the ground.

At this moment, the support for the Qin and Han dynasties is no longer out of gratitude for their past actions, nor is it out of adherence to the rules.

It is not a matter of submission to a true leader, but a heartfelt submission!

Looking at the crowd kneeling on the ground, Qin Han nodded in satisfaction.

What he wanted was not a group of roughnecks who only knew how to fight and kill.

What he needs is a fierce and powerful army that can help him conquer the world and sweep away all obstacles in the land!

"Yang Xiao".

Qin and Han's voices were majestic.

"Your subordinate is here!"

"I order your four subordinate sects of Heaven, Earth, Wind, and Thunder to immediately descend the mountain and closely monitor the movements of the Prince of Ruyang's Mansion and the six major sects."

Remember, as long as the people of Emei and Wudang are safe and sound, you don't need to worry about the other sects.

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Qin Han looked at the flag master of the Five Elements Flags. In fact, the flag master of the Five Elements Flags was more useful than these martial arts masters.

The Ruijin Banner Master excels in ranged combat and melee combat, using bows, javelins, and throwing axes.

The leader of the Giant Wood Banner is skilled in earthwork, siege warfare, ambush tactics, and rolling logs and stones.

The Flood Flag Master is skilled at spraying toxic water, strong acid, and corrosive substances.

The leader of the Fiery Banner is skilled in spraying oil, fireballs, and flame attacks (early flamethrowers).

The leader of the Thick Earth Banner is skilled in defense, digging, building fortifications, and direct confrontation.

These Five Elements Banners are practically born for war itself. If used to train soldiers, each one would be a potential general. Using them for fighting in the martial world would be a complete waste of their potential.

"Zhuang Zheng, Wen Cangsong, Tang Yang, Xin Ran, Yan Yuan."

The Five Elements Flag Master knelt respectfully on one knee.

"Your subordinate is here."

"I order you to integrate all the artisans and resources in the church, and immediately return to your respective headquarters to speed up the production and purchase of weapons, armor, bows and crossbows."

"I want to see a weapon and armor system capable of equipping 50,000 people within three months!"

"This..." Rui Jinqi Zhuang Zheng hesitated.

It wasn't that they were unwilling to obey orders; the five of them were directly under the cult leader.

"Speak your mind."

"Reporting to the Master, procuring and crafting weapons is not actually difficult. Our Ming Cult has specialized facilities for forging weapons. The problem is..."

Xinran, annoyed by Zhuang Zheng's fussy manner, cupped her hands and addressed the sect leader.

"Reporting to the Master, the Southern Song Dynasty actually had many of its own government troops selling weapons and armor, so it wasn't difficult to buy or forge them. This aspect wasn't strictly regulated. However, weapons and armor require a lot of money, and that money..."

The other three banner leaders shared the same sentiment; their loyalty was beyond question, but as the saying goes, even a hero can be brought down by a penny.

The cult leader clearly intends to accomplish great things, and certainly cannot afford to use inferior weapons to make up the numbers.

Qin Han smiled, thinking that the Ming Cult had accumulated a lot of money over the years, but it turned out they didn't have much money left.

"You should start preparing for these matters now. As for the money, I will have the people from Lingjiu Palace send it over later."

"We obey!"

After resolving this matter, Qin Han proceeded to make arrangements for the follow-up.

"Cheng Qingshuang, Fu Minyi."

"Your subordinate is here."

"I order you two to lead the Juntian and Yangtian divisions, and cooperate with Yin Yewang and others to reorganize the religious affairs and sort out the Ming Cult's properties and believers' registers in various parts of the Central Plains."

I need to know exactly how many followers the Ming Cult has!

"yes!"

One command after another was issued.

The entire Bright Summit, this main altar that had been silent for many years.

The gears of fate begin to turn slowly.

Everyone obeyed and left, leaving only Qin Han and Xiao Zhao, who had been standing by his side, inside the main hall.

Holding the Bloodthirsty Blade, Xiao Zhao's beautiful, exotic eyes held awe for the strong.

Qin Han walked up to her and gently pinched her cheek.

"What? Did I scare you?"

Xiao Zhao blushed and lowered her head, stammering.

"No...no..."

"Don't worry," Qin Han smiled and withdrew his hand, then walked to the entrance of the main hall and looked up at the sky.

"I have always been very good to my own people."

"As long as you follow me, you don't need to worry about the Persian Ming Cult, and you and your mother will have a bright future."

Xiao Zhao trembled, her eyes filled with hope as she looked at Qin Han.

Having experienced so much, Xiao Zhao had personally witnessed the strength and power of the Qin and Han dynasties. If anyone could stand against the Persian Ming Cult, she would be able to do so.

Apart from Qin and Han, there really wasn't anyone else.

At this moment, a female disciple of Lingjiu Palace hurriedly entered the main hall, holding a letter sealed with beeswax in her hands.

"Your Majesty, a secret message has arrived from the capital!"

A glint of light flashed in Qin Han's eyes.

Beijing?

I arranged for someone to be in the capital back then. Could it be that Lin Xian'er really slept with Cai Jing?

He took the letter, opened it, and a smile crept onto his face.

The letter contained very little information:

Cai Jing has persuaded the emperor to abandon the Liao-Song Mutual Protection Treaty and join forces with the Jin to divide up the Liao Dynasty!

This foolish decision was precisely the moment when Qin and Han rose to power!

"Ally with the Jin to resist the Liao..."

Qin Han casually tossed the secret letter in his hand into the nearby stove fire, where it turned into wisps of smoke.

These four characters historically foreshadowed the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, let alone in this chaotic era.

If anything unexpected happens in Sichuan, the Jin dynasty could march south directly without the Mongols even needing to breach Xiangyang.

Xiao Zhao didn't understand any of this; she simply stood quietly to the side as a maid.

Looking at Qin Han's perfect profile, I was also curious.

What kind of news could have caused him to show such obvious emotional fluctuations?

That look...

It was like the look in a hungry wolf's eyes when it saw its prey.

"Yang Xiao".

Qin Han's voice wasn't loud, but it could be clearly heard outside the main hall.

This method of transmitting sound over long distances is truly useful; no wonder Li Qiushui can find people so accurately with this martial art.

Not long after, Yang Xiao, who had just left to receive his orders, hurriedly returned to the main hall.

"The cult leader?"

"Issue my order: the Ming Cult headquarters shall be moved to Sichuan immediately!"

Qin's Chinese is astonishing.

"What?!"

Yang Xiao was taken aback. "Move to Sichuan? Master, why so suddenly? The Bright Peak base is here, built up over hundreds of years. How can we just give it up so easily?"

Bright Peak is the symbol of the Ming Cult and a sacred place in the hearts of all its followers.
