Chapter 1764 Homnd
What was that supposed to mean?
The soldiers had just won two battles in a row and they were in high spirits right now.
Wasn''t shifting camp going to demoralize the troops?
"That''s right, Young Master Li. We''ve already won the Purple Moon Mercenary Army, so nobody in
this region would dare to offend us anymore. If we build ourselves up well, we''ll definitely be the
kings of this ce!"
"That''s right. We''re doing well here, so why should we move?"
Many of them didn''t understand.
They didn''t understand why Li Genhong suddenly made this decision.
"This ce is too small," replied Li Genhong calmly.
He nced at all of them. "You mean, you''re happy with this tiny ce?”
Everyone went quiet.
Li Genhong sounded very calm, but they could hear the ambition in his words!
"Young Master Li, please borate!" said themander of Troop Five.
"Fine, I''ll tell you now." Li Genhong walked to a map and drew a circle around a patch of wastnd.
The bright red circle on the map instantly stood out to all of them.
"I want this area!" he said loudly. Then he used the same pen to draw a smaller circle within that
firstrge circle. "I want to build our campsite here, and it should be able to take around 3,000
people!"
That was huge!
The circle he had drawn was more than ten times bigger than the campsite they had now. Even
though it was wastnd, it wasn''t going to be easy to take control of it.
After all, nobody liked to see another party gain territory.
"I want to build a hospital here!" Li Genhong continued without waiting for any responses. "I want
any injured soldiers to get medical help as soon as possible! It''s fine if my soldiers die in battle, but I
refuse to let them die just because they couldn''t get medical help in time!"
All the men who wanted to protest earlier felt their throats turn moist and their noses wrinkled up as
they all stared wordlessly at Li Genhong.
"Over here," Li Genhong drew another circle. "I want to build a school."
WOONG.
Everyone felt their hair stand on end.
They felt like they had been struck by lightning.
A school?
Was Li Genhong kidding?
They were in a battlefield!
Who on earth built a school in a battlefield?
He must have gone crazy!
"I hope that your children will grow up to have the ability to change this ce. Even if they can''t
change this ce, at least they will have the chance to leave this ce in search of a better life
outside."
"I want them to have the chance to be educated, to be literate, to understand what the world
outside is like, to be kind people, and not to end up following in your footsteps..."
Li Genhong stretched his hands out and looked at them. "I don''t want them to be tainted with the
stench of blood and die fighting for their own lives!"
All tenmanders felt tearse to their eyes.
Their children!
The most important people to them were their families, and most of all, their
children.
They didn''t want their children to grow up to be mercenary soldiers like themselves. They
didn''t want their children to be sacrifices in war or killing machines.
Li Genhong was saying that the Li family was willing to groom and educate these children so that
they could improve their lives!
It would be best if they could change this ce, but they knew that was really too difficult. But even
if they couldn''t change this ce, at least they could get the chance to leave this region and move
to a bigger and better world out there.
"This part here!” Li Genhong continued to draw another circle as he wrote another word on the map.
"I hope that we can build our homnd here!"
KABOOM!
All of them immediately felt emotional. It had been such a long time since they

heard or even mentioned the word ''homnd''.
This ce was no longer their homnd. It was hell for them now.
But now, Li Genhong said he wanted to build their homnd in that circle he just drew!
