Chapter 5
Forging a Powerful Army!

Hu Jun and Musa had just reached the entrance of the main camp.

Several Houthi guards immediately saluted.

“Greetings to the Leader!”

“Greetings to the Deputy Commander!”

Hu Jun looked at these Houthi members, all strong and imposing.

He smiled and nodded.

The guards’ eyes towards Hu Jun were filled with an almost fanatical excitement.

They were eager to die for Hu Jun right now.

This was the domineering effect of the 100% loyalty skill given to him by the game.

After a few simple inquiries, Hu Jun didn't stay long.

He followed Musa into this newly built Houthi main camp.

Because of the game interface, he had a map of the entire territory he controlled.

He could directly deploy all production and construction units through the virtual territory map remotely.

This newly built main city was built by Hu Jun remotely.

After Musa issued the order to relocate the main camp.

A portion of the core members of the Houthi forces had already moved in.

The Houthi main camp was very lively and prosperous.

Besides his future residence, the core hub units necessary for building a nation, including national defense, foreign affairs, internal affairs, and energy development, were all planned out.

However, the current main city was only level one, and all unit scales and capabilities were just rudimentary.

They were still a long way from becoming true national institutions.

But Hu Jun was not in a hurry. After all, he only controlled an armed organization.

These institutions were more than enough to maintain an armed organization.

As long as he worked hard to upgrade the main city, these core hub units would also upgrade with it.

With this basic framework for running a nation, Hu Jun saved himself a lot of management trouble.

Led by Musa, Hu Jun inspected the various departments and finally arrived at his residence.

The game interface provided him with various architectural styles for the main city to choose from.

Besides the traditional Chinese, European, and other architectural styles.

There were also many advanced futuristic architectural styles.

However, he chose this area in the Middle East for development.

Hu Jun ultimately chose an architectural group with a strong Arabian flavor.

This small two-story palace was built with bricks, earth, red willow trunks, and palm leaf stalks.

It was painted in pure white both inside and out.

The central courtyard had distinctive Arabian palm leaves casting dappled shadows on the courtyard walls.

It had a unique charm.

Although it was only a small two-story palace, the area was not too large.

But it had all sorts of facilities.

A living room, a lounge, a gym, even a swimming pool, everything was there.

Compared to Yemen's current economic situation, this place could definitely be considered a mansion.

However.

Sitting on the leather sofa in the palace living room, Hu Jun had no time to enjoy life.

The Houthi forces were still a ragtag army.

They had a long way to go before becoming a truly powerful and well-equipped regular army.

Moreover, he had already set the main city in the capital of Yemen. He was no longer a guerrilla force.

The goals of a regular army and a guerrilla force were different.

A guerrilla force only sought small victories and had no organizational structure.

So they didn't need to learn from the regular army. They just needed to develop tactics that suited them.

A regular army needed to unify the world and needed to consider everything.

He had to quickly make his forces stronger.

Strictly speaking, a regular army is established and managed, trained, replenished, and supplied according to a unified system of organization, equipment, discipline, regulations, clothing, and insignia.

So, besides buying uniforms, he had to give them unified military training.

Thinking of this, Hu Jun opened the game interface with a thought.

He had already completed the construction of the main city and received a reward of 500,000 personal prestige points from the game.

Many of the building units in the "Production and Construction" tab had already been unlocked.

Hu Jun could redeem them with his personal prestige points.

After a brief glance, Hu Jun chose a building unit called "Military Training Ground" first.

This military training ground required 100,000 personal prestige points to redeem.

The military training ground was divided into two grounds, one for training ordinary soldiers and the other for training officers.

The ordinary training ground was used to rapidly improve the soldiers' physical fitness and combat abilities.

The officer training ground was used to train officers' battlefield command capabilities and their ability to manage the army.

Of course, the price of training was also different.

The ordinary training ground trained in units of companies.

The training cycle was one week, and it cost 50,000 personal prestige points.

The longer the training period, the higher the soldier's individual skills.

Of course, the price of training the same batch of soldiers for multiple cycles increased exponentially.

For example, to train an ordinary Houthi member into a special forces-level soldier.

Not only did it take seven cycles, but it also required 800,000 personal prestige points.

The officer training ground was conducted on an individual basis, also with a one-week cycle and required 80,000 personal prestige points.

Similarly, the longer the training period, the stronger the officer's abilities would be.

To train an ordinary junior officer into a warzone-level commander, it would require over a million personal prestige points.

Of course, this also depended on the basic skills of the trainees.

If this batch of soldiers or officers had strong skills to begin with.

They could skip the first few training cycles, and the required personal prestige points would be much lower.

Moreover, as the main city upgraded, the level of the military training ground would also increase.

The training cycle would then be shortened.

After some consideration, Hu Jun spent 100,000 personal prestige points to redeem it.

His personal prestige points decreased to 400,000.

At the same time, the game interface showed the territory map controlled by Hu Jun.

It allowed Hu Jun to place the military training ground he had just redeemed anywhere within the territory.

Hu Jun thought for a moment and finally placed the military training ground at the foot of a mountain, not far from the main city.

As Hu Jun clicked the confirmation button to place it.

Rumble——

A large military training ground sprang up on a piece of open land not far from the main city.

Looking at this military training ground with its considerable land area, Hu Jun nodded in satisfaction.

With this military training ground, the Houthi forces' combat power would rapidly increase.

Then, Hu Jun turned to Musa beside him and ordered.

“Musa, you will select a company-sized unit from our elite forces and send them to the military training ground.”

“Also select two high-ranking commanders to train with them.”

“I want to build a powerful force as soon as possible!”

“Understood, Leader! I'll do it right away!”

Musa, with his 100% loyalty, nodded without hesitation.

He immediately walked out of the palace.

Looking at Musa who obeyed his orders without question and immediately carried them out.

Hu Jun smiled with satisfaction.

The training of the army was solved. The next thing to solve was the problem of the organization's lack of funds.
