Chapter 45 20,000 Yellow Turban Army, Zhou Cang as a meat shield
"Is it the young man just now?"
Everyone's expressions changed, that young man wouldn't really kill the bandits.
Several young people wanted to help, but were held back by their family members. If they were caught by bandits, the consequences would be disastrous and people would die.
After the flames burned for a long time, people finally couldn't help but sneak up.
Seeing the corpses of bandits on the ground, the people were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help but cheered.
"Oh my God, all the bandits on that mountain were killed. What that young man said is true."
"Oh my god, these bitches are finally dead."
"God opened your eyes. We have met a big shot, and he is a big shot who has mercy on us ordinary people!"
"Look here, there's a flag left on it! What's the word on it? Those who can read, come here."
"Xiliang!"
"What is the Xiliang Army? Aren't we Beiliang? Why have I never heard of it? Do any of you know?"
"I know, I know. Last time I went to Beiliang City to sell tiger skins, the soldiers and horses of Lin Yi, the prince of Beiliang, were called Xiliang Iron Cavalry. It is said that our place was renamed Xiliang County because of the prince."
"Could it be that the young man from before was the Crown Prince of Beiliang?"
"It turns out that it wasn't God who opened his eyes, but the prince took pity on us, so he took action to kill the bandits?"
"It's great, we in Xiliang finally have hope."
Several old people couldn't help but burst into tears. It turned out that the person they met was actually the prince, who was also the parent official of Xiliang County. They didn't expect that the prince was so compassionate towards the world and sent people to exterminate the bandits.
This gave them hope. If the prince is determined to suppress the bandits with all his strength, Xiliang's life will be much easier in the future.
At this time, a middle-aged man couldn't help but frowned and whispered: "I heard that someone is preparing to unite to fight against the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince is harmed by them, wouldn't it be that we have no hope again?"
"Damn it, these bitches are so intimidating, why would someone as good as the Crown Prince deal with him?"
"My son seems to have participated. I have to call him back, otherwise I will break his legs!"
A group of people yelled and cursed, those people were really nothing, and someone as good as the prince actually had to deal with them.
........
Lin Yi naturally didn't know about this. He was already immersed in happiness at the moment because the overwhelming system notification sounds came.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for subduing people with force, annihilating the Hengshan bandits who harmed the people, and obtaining 500 Yellow Turbans."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for subduing others with force, annihilating the Bibotan bandits who harmed the people, and obtaining one thousand and five Yellow Turbans."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for conquering people with force, annihilating the mountain bandits who harmed the people, acquiring a thousand elite members of the Yellow Turban Army, and acquiring the elite general Zhou Cang."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for subduing people with force, annihilating the Qiu Shan bandits who harmed the people, and obtaining 800 Yellow Turbans."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for subduing people with force, annihilating the Lantau bandits who harmed the people, and gaining 3,000 Yellow Turbans."
"..."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for persuading others with virtue, gaining the gratitude of the people of Xiliang, and receiving 10,000 catties of sweet potatoes."
When all the rewards were given out, Lin Yi was stunned. After wiping out more than a dozen groups of bandits, he actually got nearly 20,000 Yellow Turban troops. This was a bit scary.
He also got a general named Zhou Cang.
This man is a general from the Yellow Turban Army. Although he is not a first-class general, his defense is still very good and he is very resistant to beatings. Otherwise, he would not be able to withstand Zhao Yun's three shots.
It is said that in order to avenge Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang singled out Zhao Yun, but was directly shot in the hole by Zhao Yun.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Cang didn't care. He grabbed a handful of mud and blocked the wound and continued to fight. As a result, Zhao Yun stabbed him again. Zhou Cang gritted his teeth and fought again. He resisted three shots. He was definitely a human shield level military commander.
Zhao Yun's force value is no joke. Generally, not many people can withstand his three shots.
Of course, Zhou Cang has another more famous identity, that is, he is the follower of Mr. Guan Er.
Because of his natural supernatural power, after joining Guan Yu, he became Guan Yu's royal sword bearer, which is the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
Moreover, he was very loyal, and he immediately committed suicide and followed Guan Yu after his death. It can be said that he was extremely loyal.
Such people are still very cute.
"System, why are you so generous this time? Killing a bandit actually resulted in the loss of up to 3,000 people, and also gave military officers as gifts?" Lin Yi asked the system directly. If there are such powerful rewards, then professional bandit suppression will be in the future.
Already.
Ding!
The system prompts: "Host, please note that except for the elite, the Yellow Turban Army rewarded by the system has extremely limited combat effectiveness, which is only slightly better than that of ordinary people."
Damn it!
Lin Yi's lips twitched and he couldn't help but take a closer look at the reward content. There really were only a thousand elites, so he was happy in vain.
No wonder the system is so generous. It turned out that more than 20,000 civilians were given away.
But this is not bad. If the 20,000 civilians receive a little training, they can still select some elites, and the rest can also be used for farming.
I happened to get 10,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes, as well as the previous potatoes, which can be used as food reserves. With these two high-yielding crops, I believe there will never be a shortage of food.
The only pity is that there are no rewards for high-yield varieties of rice and wheat, which are more in line with Lin Yi's appetite. But for ordinary people, it is good to eat some, so there is no need to worry about this problem.
After he checked the rewards, he finally arrived at his destination, Xiliang Prefect's Mansion.
Looking at the dilapidated mansion and the old general with few teeth at the door, Lin Yi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This old man must be too deceitful.
"My lord, because the prince did not govern this place, there was no county guard set up before. There was only an old general guarding this place." Seeing the look in his lord's eyes, Wang Yue explained in a low voice.
Lin Yi was speechless. As expected of an old general, he almost lost his teeth.
This is a bit embarrassing. There is not even a prefect's mansion, only a shabby government office.
As if he had read Lin Yi's thoughts, the old general said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty said that if your Majesty wants to be independent, you must change from extravagance to frugality."
Forehead!
Lin Yi sighed, his father was too ruthless, his independent sect was invincible.
But seeing the old general's trembling look, he couldn't say much. If the old man got excited, he would probably die at any time.
Lin Yi could only laugh and said: "Old general, didn't the chief manager say that my father rebuilt the mansion for me?"
"Hui Shizi, this is indeed the case. However, there was an emergency military service during the construction, so everyone was transferred away." The old general nodded and pointed to an open space not far away, where the construction work could be vaguely seen.
Traces, explained.
Depend on!
Lin Yi's face turned green, this was just the beginning, just a few wooden piles, a ghost's mansion.
This old man is so awesome, he is really planning to make me start from scratch.
He laughed dryly and said: "Old General, you should rest first. I'll settle down first. This poor place is not easy to live in."
"No, after I finished my work, I have to go back to Beiliang to retire. I have been guarding this place for Beiliang for nearly twenty years. I can no longer guard it. It's time to go back." The old general said with a smile on his face.
.
Lin Yi was immediately in awe. It turned out that the old man who had silently protected Beiliang for so many years was a great hero.
He looked at Wang Yue and said in a deep voice: "Send someone to send the old general to Beiliang City safely. We must ensure the safety of the old general. He is a hero."
"Subordinates obey orders!"
Wang Yue nodded and looked at the frail old man with great respect. He was risking his own life to protect Beiliang. Such a person deserves respect.
