Chapter 799
Xuzhou, Lofeng City.
By now, anyone would say, Prince Xiaoyao of Lofeng City has become a force not to be underestimated within the Empire. In just a few short years, Lofeng City has gone from having no soldiers and no food, to having plenty of both.
Li Xingzai constantly recruits and buys troops, seafarers, forest bandits, and homeless refugees, accepting all who come. After training under Qi Jiguang, these people shed their bandit-like demeanor and have formed the basis of a strong military force.
Currently, the total military force under Li Xingzai has reached 30,000.
Now, the entire Empire has to take a second look at this Sixth Son of Emperor Ming.
However, the larger the challenge, the more difficult it is. The geographical location of Lofeng City is quite awkward, being enveloped by Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou. Any of these three forces would not allow Li Xingzai to grow stronger.
