《Rise of the Horde 》Chapter 88
Advertisement
After Xiao Chen finished assigning and giving out all the tasks for the foundation of his kingdom. He leaned back in his chair and heaved a sigh of relief. Everything went well, and they just followed his words with little complaints.
A month had passed, and many survivors of the Season of Damnation joined his tribe. Famine plagued the lands since everything in the path of the corrupted creatures was destroyed. Many of the wild animals went into hiding or became corrupted creatures themselves and joined the army of the demon that descended. Xiao Chen was really grateful to the one that attracted the demon to the south. Whoever or whatever it was, it greatly aided them.
Ogres, trolls, goblins and orcs came flocking in, in great numbers after seeing their kin being part of Xiao Chen's tribe. There were even some times wherein some large swarms of survivors attempted to raid the village but quickly surrendered after seeing that the village was being protected by a mighty army of its own. Those that tried to raid the village didn't really want to attack, but their hunger forced them to and when they were offered food by the chieftain, they quickly gave up on the attack.
The population of the Yohan Tribe quickly ballooned up and the food supplies were barely enough to sustain it. Xiao Chen delayed most of the Rumbling Clan and Warghen Clan's trainings and sent them out to track and hunt down the wild animals since they are the ones who can cover greater distances with their steeds.
The kobolds started their the task that Xiao Chen had given to them. They dug whenever darkness engulfed the surroundings until daylight until they can no longer endure the brightness of the sun.
Xiao Chen opened his system, and a big smile was plastered on his lips. The battles against the army of corrupted creatures just supplied him with a ton of points.

Since he had disbanded the Yohan First Battalion,all the things that were related to him being a commander and details of the army were all reset until he establish the new army. He estimated that the total number of his new army would be in the five to seven thousands he upgraded his rank higher. Spending 10,000 points to upgrade it to Grunt Major being able to assume command of four warbands which is 2,000 orc warriors then he spent 20,000 points to upgrade it to Grunt General which allows him to assume command of eight warbands then 30,000 points to upgrade it to Horde Chief which allows him to assume command of a horde which is 7,000 orc warriors.
He shook his head in helplessness as his ton of points quickly dwindled down like a bucket that was filled with holes and the water inside the bucket was his points. A sad sigh came out from his lips as he rested his head on his table. His mental powers were really spent after working day and night polishing and planning.
*****
After a few days of rest, Xiao Chen finally came out of his tent to inspect the progress of his commanders in recruiting their new warriors. With steady and relaxed strides, he went to where his commanders were at and told them to assemble the recruits.
A great number of recruits were presented in front of Xiao Chen. Their number probably more or less than five thousand. The recruits were all orcs, both those who have been part of the Yohan First Battalion and inexperienced young ones who were still unbaptized by real battles.

Xiao Chen cleared his throat and panned his gaze from left to right. "You are all warriors in your own right and means, but after going through training. You will be molded into a better warrior, a perfect warrior that will defend Yohan! from all those who seek to challenge its might... You will be both the shield and the spear of the Yohan!"
It was a total silence after Xiao Chen's little speech. The recruits just stared at him, some with eagerness to prove their worth and some with knowing smiles. The ones with the knowing smiles are the members of the disbanded Yohan First Battalion who experienced and knew the means of the chief to mold them.
After a few moments of silence, Xiao Chen spoke once again with his voice booming with intensity. "Are there any of you who want to back out? This is your chance." He bellowed but was met with another round of silence. "Alright, since you are all willing and undergo the intense training, let's get started. Starting from today, you all now belong to the Tribe. You will be giving your all for the glory of Yohan!"
Xiao Chen signalled for his commanders to come in front of him. Like how they were trained, Sakh'arran, Gur'kan, Draegh'ana and Trot'thar carried themselves properly and marched in sync while making their way towards the chieftain.
After the four were now in front of him, Xiao Chen nodded subtly in satisfaction at how his commanders carried themselves. He walked past them, then bellowed, "We will the ones who will hone you to be the best that you can be. Our words are the laws and we are absolute while you are undergoing training. Punishments will be meted out for disobedience." He glanced from left to right at the recruits, who broke into murmurs. Probably those who haven't been part of the previous army.
"Now those who think they are better than their peers! Those who think that they are tougher, stronger and have a stronger will than the others. Those who are willing to suffer more and be trained more intensely. Step forward!" Xiao Chen bellowed and a lot of orcs moved forward. Almost all those who have been part of Yohan First Battalion stepped forward.
Xiao Chen nodded his head at them, but deep in his mind he was grinning mischievously. "You will be undergoing a more rigorous training than your peers. You will be the Raksha (backbone) of the Horde."
"Those who didn't step forward, fret not because you will be the Yurakk (heart) of the Horde" Xiao Chen declared and paused for a few moments and waited for what he said to sink in.
After a few moments of murmurs Xiao Chen raised his right hand to silence the recruits. "Now you are part of the Yohan First Horde! Named Ikarush! (Icarus) with the battlecry Rakar'nogar Ugum Ashnarah (We are those who dare). Take the battlecry to the heart and live with it. It will be the pride of this Horde." he bellowed with pride.
He soon gave instructions to his commanders to group the Yurakk of the Horde into six different groups, while he took hold of those who volunteered to be the Raksha of the Horde.
Xiao Chen wanted to bring to life the spartan hoplites, battle hardened warriors who have been immortalized in stories and movies in his past life in his previous world. The Yurakks will be modeled after the Legionnaires of Ancient Rome, much like how the Yohan First Battalion was with a few changes and the Rakshas will be modeled after the Spartan Royal Guards. It was something that needed a lot of work, but it would be one earthshattering army once it was finally established.
The Yurakks will be the core of the Yohan First Horde, the Rakshas as its backbone and a savior if all hell breaks loose in the battlefield. The Rumbling Clan and Warghen Clan will serve as the cavalry and the trolls manning the siege weapons. He still has some more plans for his army, he still missing a lot of units that are needed for his army to be highly efficient, specially when they will venture into new lands that are unknown to them.
The creation of Verakhs (scouts) is definitely needed for the Yohan First Horde to avoid delays and fall into sudden attacks. He is going to model them after one of the known units of another country from his past life, the predators of the jungle who are excellent trackers and hunters who didn't rely on modern equipments to execute their operations. They are one of the few units that Xiao Chen admired from his past life,they are the Scout Rangers.

World Labyrinth
Meet our hero: an average young man with an average life, who ended up dying while working an average job. However, he's a given a chance to see another world at the final crossroads of his old life. The catch... well... he knows there's one. There always is. But, hey, when you're about to die, you take whatever opportunity's provided to you. This is the young man's story in the new world as he learns he can't afford to be average anymore. AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've decided to put this note up due to some comments and ratings left for this ORIGINAL FICTION complaining its boring. This story starts slow and it takes time for things to pick up. Also the MC doesn't start off as superman or become superman magically in two chapters. He also is AVERAGE... so it takes time to build up his character. Starting chapter 14 or so things pick up, but this isn't a pure hack and slash and skills level up story like most of the FF on this site. Just giving you a warning, so you don't end up disappointed and end up having to post large paragraphs complaining about the story... I also post on average every TWO OR THREE DAYS, so you'll get more to read.
