Chapter 748 - 368 Crisis Approaches_2
Lei Tian and Scorpion’s recruits include many military ruffians expelled due to offenses, as well as skilled Jianghu thieves. This is why they dare to confront government forces.
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly asked curiously, "If Lei Tian is so powerful, why doesn’t he seize this place outright?"
"Warfare and governance are two different matters."
Xiao Lingqiu replied flatly, "The Nanjin Country is in turmoil now, and anyone with ambition is dreaming of dominating a region. If they simply continue plundering and hiding in the desert, they’ll forever remain mere bandits.
The Heshan Tribe has lived on this land for years, and no one understands business and trade better than them. If Lei Tian wants his own base and territory, wants to develop gradually, and wants to vie for supremacy, collaboration is the best strategy."
Upon hearing this, Liao Feihu couldn’t help but turn to Xiao Lingqiu, surprised.
For some reason, he felt that this woman exuded the unique aura of a battlefield commander.
Having spent countless days in military camps, he had sharpened a keen instinct to discern whether someone had faced the crucible of war.
Especially those battle-hardened generals.
The woman before him, despite her striking and delicate beauty, seemed to radiate the calm and authority born from surviving life-and-death trials.
