Quanrong Puns

Im sure this was probably already mentioned before, but I couldn't help but post after seeing it in excitement haha.

So after re-reading Kingdom for the Nth time, I just now realized that the badass Quanrong were already introduced by Chapter 20 lol. (Interesting also to see the art changes 500 chapters apart)

He employs ShunSuiJu as his deputy and brings mutton as a peace-offering gift to Rozo, all because he saw the benefits of using "barbarian tribes" to turn the favor of battles.

In this scenario Shin and his army (separated from KyouKai) gets assigned to YTW instead. Here are a few things that I think would happen. 1. Shin and his generals would shine but his army would get slaughtered. There is no mistaking it Shin, the main protagonist of the manga is heavens above Heki. The growth rate of Shin individually and his army is indeed monstrous worthy of awesome new feats as we have seen in Shins recent encounter. The question i pose though, is would the current strength of the common Shin army soldiers (foot soliders/cavalry) be enough to defeat the slaughtering horde of King Rozo? I say no. The individual strength of the Rozo army has been unreal enough to equal YTW army. Foot soldiers would get wiped out first then the cavalry, then the commanders of Shins army. 2. Shin/Karyo TEn if left charge of guarding the food provisions would still fail thus leading to the we take the three heads of the commanders strategy but this time Shin, at a major cost would kill his target.

My only counter to my own thoughts is Shins unpredictable Instinctual type feel for the battle. Maybe Shin would sense that the food supply was going to be targeted and maybe he would have seen through Shin Sui Jus ambush. Lastly, i think Heki could have done better if he was assigned to Mouten against conventional Zhao soliders and tactics. It was a unwinable battle for Heki. Even if we replace Heki with Shin, unless plot armor his army would get slaughtered by Rozos army. That is the the degree of difficulty of the battle.

There's a lot of theory about the monkey paw tribe being the ones to free the family hostages of the quanrong tribe or even taking over the castle. And based on the latest chapter, it most probably amplifies this possibility even more. Except for the one sentence said by YTW talking about the Chieftains must survive with their individual tribes until dawn. Now you're probably wondering how I came to the conclusion about the Quanrong Stronghold being the Rendezvous point that Mantanwa was talking about (Said in the Title). Here is a list of points I have in mind:

1. Supplies are short for Qin - No doubt that the Afflicting Qin army is on it's last legs when it comes to food supplies, Conquering the Stronghold will not only give an enormous amount of supplies, the YTW army maybe able to share it with the Kanki and Ousen Army using some stealthy method or something (thought I doubt it will happen). Long story short getting food supplies is absolutely necessary.

2. Better location advantage - If the YTW army will somehow conquer the stronghold, it will provide an indisputable Advantage for the YTW army. ( This is more of an optional objective for the YTW army)

3. Almost defenseless Stronghold - As seen during the last chapters, the Quanrong and Zhao army gathered an incredible amount of soldiers just to corner and surround the YTW unit that charged the Leader of one army led by the Quanrong. The pursuit lasted even till nighttime and continued on. There's no better chance to capture a stronghold than this moment.

4. YTW army is adept to conquering strongholds - The first time we've heard about the YTW army conquering a stronghold was After Sei announced his intention to revive the 6 GG system to shin. After a few chapters we see that the trio monster units posted on the borders of zhao for the feint and to hide the real intention of SHK of using the YTW army to attack an stronghold which was defensively excellent. None the less we see that the YTW army conquered the Wei stronghold (Enshi) unbelievably fast. For the next siege, we finally get to see how the YTW army operate real time during an offensive siege on a stronghold at the surprise attack on the zhao border, we see that it took only a single ladder, Bajio (with the help of Jin and Tan) and some sniffing mountain humans to open the gate so Shin and gang could brute their way in. And the ones to perform this attack on the Quanrong stronghold would most likely be the Monkey Paw tribe, they will have

Do you think the Quanrongs will join the YotanWa army or she will crush them until the last?

would like to read up on them :)

I always thought that heki should of been or may still end up being part of the hi shin unit at some point (army gets annihilated or something). My question to you guys is where would he rank among them.

(For strength/martial might I’ll use this scale 1=top tier ex.shin,kyoukai, naki(not 100%sure he’s here) 2=elites tier ex. Suugen, garo , denyuu, gaku rai , ryuusen 3=high/mid tier ex.Hai rou,den ei, ryuuyuu 4= mid/low tier ex. Kanto, seki , ton brothers 5=bihei tier ex. Bihei)

My opinion:

1. Rank-lieutenant: For obvious reasons, if he’s capable of being a mediocre general he’d make a solid lieutenant. Always thought sosui was the dollar store heki anyways.

2. Tactics- 5th place : Here is where heki would shine the most. (Although basic) He’s definitely a better strategist than the majority of the hi shin unit as shown in his feats in gyou. He’s only outmatch be 1:ten 2:kyoukai 3:shin (instincts count) 4: Naki (has been exceptional and perceptive when showcased) and MAYBE sosui but it’s doubtful.

3. Strength/Martial might- 3: I’m not 💯 on this but ik that he isn’t any lower than that. Yes he killed the quanrong king rozo but it was a surprise attack and even then he almost got 1 shot during his 1st attempt. Even though he’s got a bigger feat than them I just don’t see him beating anybody in the tier 2 in a fair fight so he’s in 3 for now.

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

So far nobody has given me a straight answer

Well, toucan play at that game.

This is my first post pls don't kill me lol.

The people in the comment section is why I love this subreddit!!

Cred once again my sis wants credit lol

Keep in mind, my son is 4 years old, so everything is an original to him.

I had to work late into the evening yesterday, and he was just going to bed when I got home. I had left home for the office nearly 14 hours prior, had a long day, lots of meetings, traffic, etc.

When I walked through the door, I was exhausted, run down, and starving. My wife hugged me and asked how my day was, and I replied, "Done. It was a good day, but has got me exhausted. I just want to grab a bite and go to bed. I'm hungry."

From my son's bedroom, I hear him shout, "Hi Hungry! Nice to meet you!"

Not only did it make me laugh, but I completely forgot about how hungry and tired I was. I went to his bedroom, and we laughed together about it. It was exactly what I needed.

Edit: Thanks for all the awards, kind strangers! I'll let my son know y'all enjoyed his joke too!

I heard parents named their children lance a lot.

First post please don't kill me

Edit: i went to sleep and now my inbox is dead, thank you kind strangers for the awards!

I Thank ye kind Matey for the booty! I be truly overwhelmed! Thank you!

Holy cow! Thank you everyone for the upvotes and awards! I wasn’t expecting this!

He should have a good vowel movement. His next diaper change could spell disaster though.

Making it all the way home and realizing that they forgot one of the containers:

Riceless

That was the punchline

To every win and loss there is context. That David won against Goliath by the skin of his teeth does not mean Goliath is any less of a monster. Ouki's only campaign in the series he ended up with a big fat L, yet no one disputes his ability or calls him a fraud. Gekishin lost to Riboku, yet he was clearly a very impressive general tactically. Renpa lost to Mougou, yet no one questions his ability. Karin's sneak attack on Kankoku pass was intercepted by Ousen, yet that doesn't make it any less impressive that she managed to get those troops there in the first place. If anything, it makes Ordo seem like an idiot. Riboku's attack on Sai was repelled by a humongous, unprecedented political effort from Qin, but the fact that he even managed to sneak in an entire army there was insanely impressive, and he took down Duke Hyou on the way there. Heck, the Quanrong King got killed by Heki, but no one in their right minds would call Heki stronger than him.

I could go on forever like this, but the point is clear by now I think. Reducing every battle to who won and who lost is way too simplistic and only results in toxicity. Just, chill, people.
