Chapter 92: The Imperial Army Instructor Plan! (1/2)
“You brat, are you mocking your little uncle?”
Little uncle may not understand Wang Chong’s words, but he could tell that Wang Chong was mocking his tanned skin. Thus, he lifted a finger and knocked Wang Chong’s head.
Wang Chong simply grinned in response.
“It’s a pity that your second brother can’t be here for the old master’s birthday. Actually, in the past, your second brother wasn’t like that.”
Little uncle suddenly recalled something and sighed.
“To think that the Berserker Syndrome of our clan would appear in him for your generation!”
Wang Chong fell silent. While they couldn’t speak of such matter in the hall before the old master and old lady, at here, where no one was around, there was no need to hold back their words.
There was a tightly guarded secret in the Wang Clan, and it was the ‘Berserker Syndrome’.
No one knew when it started, but this ‘Berserker Syndrome’ would be inherited by a member of the Wang Clan every alternate generation.
The moment the Berserker Syndrome in one worked up, one would be unable to suppress the killing intent raging in their blood. One’s sight would turn blood-red, and aggressive nature would flare, forcing one into a state of rampage.
And Wang Chong’s second brother, Wang Bei, possessed the ‘Berserker Syndrome’!
This syndrome was hereditary, and it was because of this that the old master and old lady felt guilty toward Second Brother Wang Bei.
“I intend to head over to the jail cell to visit second brother.”
Wang Chong suddenly spoke.
“Oh?”
Little uncle blinked before nodding his head.
“That’s good as well. Given your current capabilities and Zhao Fengchen’s aid, you should be able to meet him.”
Little uncle has been training the members of the Imperial Army at Tianzhu Mountain. In terms of connections and grasp of information, he was in no way inferior to Wang Chong
The only difference was that as a commander on Tianzhu Mountain, he was plagued with various military affairs. Thus, he wasn’t allowed to leave Tianzhu Mountain easily.
“Hehe. Speaking of which, that Wootz steel sword or whatever it is called, when do you intend to give one to me? I have countless people begging me for it up at Tianzhu Mountain.”
Little uncle suddenly smiled.
“Sure! A hundred thousand gold taels for one!”
Wang Chong chuckled and made a ‘demanding for money’ gesture.
“What! It’s that expensive?”
Little uncle was taken aback. He knew that the sword was expensive, but as he didn’t enquire too much about the matter, he didn’t know its exact price.
“Of course! I’ll sell others for hundred thousand gold taels, but since it’s little uncle… I’ve already prepared yours long ago!”
Wang Chong smiled mischievously.
“Hahaha, at least you have a conscience. This is more like it!”
Upon hearing that Wang Chong has prepared a Wootz steel sword which was worth a hundred thousand gold taels for him long ago, he immediately laughed heartily.
“Right, little uncle. I have something that I wish to trouble you on.”
Wang Chong suddenly spoke gravely.
It was rare that little uncle has returned to the capital, and Wang Chong has a serious matter to ask of him.
“What is it?”
Smiling, little uncle asked.
“I would like to ask you if you know any retired instructors on Tianzhu Mountain.”
Wang Chong asked seriously.
Weng! Upon hearing Wang Chong touch on a sensitive topic, little uncle’s face immediately turned grave.
“Chong-er, why are you asking this?”
Little uncle was alarmed. All matters regarding the Imperial Army and royal family were huge affairs and they were all confidential.
“I’ll warn you first. Even though we are a clan of ministers and generals, there are some things that are taboo for us.”
“Little uncle, what are you thinking of? Do you think that I am planning a revolt?”
Wang Chong burst into laughter.
There were a few nobles who brazenly tried to expand their influence into the Imperial Army to turn it into the private army.
However, that was the Imperial Army they were trying to lay their hands on.
To make a stern warning of the matter, the previous emperor has confiscated the wealth of several clans.
However, what Wang Chong intended to do was thousands of miles away from what little uncle was thinking.
“I intend to invite the retired experts of Tianzhu Mountain to help me train a few martial artists. There is no restriction on their age, and it doesn’t matter whether they are in the seventies or eighties. It would suffice as long as they are capable of training people.”
Wang Chong spoke frankly.
Little Uncle Wang Mi was an instructor of Tianzhu Mountain, and he was in charge of training the personnel of the Imperial Army. This was a huge strategic advantage, but it was a pity that no one in his previous life thought of utilizing this advantage.
Since they were able to train the members of the Imperial Army, there was no doubt about their strength. More important than that, they had a system to groom a large amount of experts.
Thus, after his reincarnation, Wang Chong has been contemplating for a very long time how he should deal with the future dangers. In the end, his conclusion was that he should groom a group of sufficiently strong subordinates.
It wasn’t suitable for him to render the help of others every time, and there were too many rules in the military. Thus, Wang Chong decided to groom an army himself.
And in terms of grooming an army, there was no one who was more capable than the Imperial Army instructors up on Tianzhu Mountain.
Wang Chong didn’t dare to mobilize the current Imperial Army instructors, but it was a different case for the retired ones.
The retired instructors of Tianzhu Mountain have slowly increased throughout the years, and they were living idly off the pension from the royal court.
