"China Region System Announcement: After a tough battle, the player, Lu Fengxian, the mayor of Feixiong Town in Bohai County, Jizhou, successfully took over the historical city of Nanpi. He killed one second-rate general, five third-rate generals, twenty high-level generals, thirty-three middle-level generals, and fifty-eight low-level generals. He obtained 58880 merit points and 183880 points. He officially became the mayor of Nanpi County. As the first player to break through the system's county city, the imperial court decided to grant Lu Fengxian the title of Mayor of Bohai County. Rewards: Unique Special Building, Loyal Soul Pavilion, Dungeon Blueprint, 1,000 gold taels. Player Lu Fengxian's Reputation increased by 100000.”
At the same time as the system announcement, Lu Bu also received a private notification: [System Notification: Your achievement points have exceeded 100,000. Are you willing to spend 180 gold taels (Military commander directly skipped) to promote your military position to captain?]”
Lu Bu immediately agreed. He had just received 1000 taels of gold. Furthermore, Nanpi County City had a large amount of grain and money. 180 taels of gold was not a large sum to Lu Bu.
Governor of Bohai? Lu Bu's eyes flashed. This world was ten times bigger than his original world. A town was not even as small as a county. Bohai County was a big county, which was definitely equivalent to a state in his previous life. Moreover, the population density was much higher than in his previous life. He could definitely raise millions of soldiers here!
The Bohai Sea was Yuan Shao's home, but now…humph, it belongs to me! Lu Bu's eyes flashed with a strange light. In his previous life, when he was under Yuan Shao, he was almost killed by this guy. Now that he has taken your foundation, it can be considered compensation!
"Order the entire army to rest and recuperate. Sanniang, I temporarily order you to be the Nanpi County Magistrate. Put up a notice to appease the people and a recruitment notice. As long as you have true talent, regardless of background, you can work under me!”
"This general will obey!" Hu Sanniang said respectfully. She had the highest authority in the internal affairs here. Zhang Xue was not here, so who else could take the position of Nanpi County Magistrate but her?
"Xu Ning! I order you to be the general of the Bohai Sea and the governor of Nanpi County. You will take office immediately and train the 3,000 hook and sickle spearmen as soon as possible!”Lu Bu looked at Xu Ning. He was the best at training soldiers here.
"I accept your orders!" Xu Ning replied firmly, his face slightly flushed.
"Chu Feiyun, Deng Kang, and Lu Hu, the three of you will each take two thousand men and return to Feixiong Town, Three Yin Town, and Gushing Spring Town to help them defend the city. However, you are not allowed to send troops to attack other towns in the near future!”Lu Bu's plan was very good. The other towns had already been emptied before they left. Even if they were to snatch it back, it would be useless. It would be better to raise it for a few days and kill it after it became fat.
"Yes, sir!" The three generals bowed in agreement. This was an urgent matter, so they bade farewell to Lu Bu and immediately returned with 2,000 soldiers.
Nanpi County was different from small counties. Normal counties only had nine barracks, while the system had twelve counties. As a Bohai County and a famous county, Nanpi City had fifteen barracks. Among them, there was a Light Archers Barracks, a Heavy Archers Barracks, and a Heavy Archers Barracks. Each day, they would send out 20 Light Archers, Heavy Archers, and Heavy Archers. The other twelve Barracks would send out Light Archers, Archers, and Spearmen, and each had four Barracks. Every day, 200 ordinary soldiers would be sent out. In total, there would be 660 soldiers sent out from Nanpi County's barracks every day, and 60 of them were elite soldiers!
The system had given Lu Bu an empty promise. Although he was the Governor of Bohai, the system had added a total of 38 ordinary counties to the historical cities of Bohai Prefecture. If he wanted to truly control the entire Bohai Sea, he would have to send his troops to conquer these counties. In addition, he had countless towns. Just Nanpi County alone had 98 towns that needed to be conquered!
Saying that the Bohai Sea needed to be rebuilt was a bit modest, so Lu Bu was currently in dire need of people, especially a commander like Xu Ning.
After conquering Nanpi, Lu Bu had obtained a unique building, the Loyal Soul Pavilion. It had three floors. The first floor was dedicated to ten Generals of his faction. The General's loyalty had to be above 95 and had performed great service for the Ruler. During the period of time he was in the Loyal Soul Pavilion, the General's loyalty would increase by 1 point per month. If his loyalty reached 100, he would automatically be promoted to the second floor. His loyalty would never change and he would be able to enjoy the benefits forever. The third floor of the Loyal Soul Pavilion was a place for Generals to cultivate. Within it, one's cultivation speed would increase by 50%, and the rate of breaking through bottlenecks would increase by 20%. In addition, the attraction of Rulers with the Loyal Soul Pavilion to generals would increase!
What a Loyal Soul Pavilion! Lu Bu's eyes lit up when he heard the information about the Loyal Soul Pavilion. As a martial artist, he knew the importance of strength. Increasing one's cultivation speed by 50% and increasing one's chances of breaking through a bottleneck by 20% would drive all the generals crazy!
Immediately, Lu Bu, who had just sat down in the prefect's manor, stood up and ran out under the surprised gaze of the lady. He couldn't wait to see what it felt like to have his cultivation speed increased by 50%.
Watching Lu Bu's back as he left, the third lady shook her head helplessly. She naturally knew what Lu Bu was doing. As a general, especially a female general, the third lady naturally wanted to go to the Loyal Soul Pavilion to cultivate. However, with the burden of the million people in Nanpi County on her shoulders, she was not as free as Lu Bu.
Now that the main force of the Yellow Turban army in Jizhou was concentrated on Julu and Lu Zhi's army of the imperial court, Nanpi County welcomed a rare chance to catch its breath. With the arrival of reinforcements, the three towns of Flying Bear, Three Yin, and Gushing Spring also regained their peace.
Nanpi County seized this time and worked hard to develop its own strength. Other than Lu Bu, almost all the generals were busy. As Lu Bu's reputation increased and he became the governor of Bohai, many scholars and generals came to join them. Perhaps because of his reputation, some third-rate generals and strategists came to join them, slightly easing the pressure on Nanpi City.
" System Notification: Congratulations to player Lu Fengxian. Your cultivation has improved again after your tireless cultivation. Your martial strength has reached 93.”
In the third level of the Loyal Soul Pavilion, Lu Bu wiped his sweat. It had been seven days since he entered the Loyal Soul Pavilion, and his strength had finally increased by another level. After reaching the Xiantian level, it was even more difficult to increase his strength. Every bit of strength required a lot of sweat. Even with the 50% increase in cultivation and Lu Bu's abnormal talent, it took him seven days to increase his strength by 1 point. However, this small increase made Lu Bu feel that his strength was about 30% stronger than before!
On the second day after entering the Loyal Soul Pavilion, he received a system notification. Zhang Xue had successfully come out of seclusion, and her Intelligence had increased to 85. She had also comprehended the Military Advisor's skill, Wind and Cloud Changing Color, which could change the weather within a certain range. She had also comprehended a characteristic, which was to persuade a captive to surrender. When persuading a captive to surrender, the success rate had increased by 50%.
"Let's go back!" Lu Bu stretched his back. After seven days of training, even he was a little tired. Lu Bu's training method was different from others. Others only needed to sit quietly and circulate their Qi. However, Lu Bu had to cultivate both his Qi and blood. In order to speed up the circulation of his blood, he naturally could not sit quietly. In these seven days, other than eating and sleeping, he had been practicing the halberd. Therefore, Lu Bu's training was the most difficult. However, it was not without reward. Although his combat strength was 93 points like Xu Ning's, However, Lu Bu was confident that if he were to face Xu Ning again, he would be able to defeat him within three moves!
Dragging his tired body, Lu Bu left the Loyal Soul Pavilion. He needed to rest.
Nanpi was one of the few big cities in Jizhou with a population of one million. Naturally, many players were doing missions here to earn money. Although the theme of the game was cultivation and fighting, it was difficult to survive in the game without money. Even if it was cultivation, good secret manuals needed money, a quiet environment needed money to rent, and a good weapon. If one wanted to run around the world, they needed a good horse. Everything needed money. And until now, the currency exchange in " The World " had not been opened. Players wanted money. They could only work for NPCs or do business.
Along the way, there were all kinds of players everywhere. Nanpi County had just been conquered, and most NPCs did not dare to come out. They were all holed up at home. Only these fearless players dared to wander around the streets.
Lu Bu wielded his Heavenly Halberd and wore a set of refined iron chain mail. His handsome face was cold, and he had a slightly weathered aura. No matter where he went, he was very eye-catching. Coupled with the domineering aura around him, the surrounding players subconsciously pulled away from him. No one dared to get too close.
" Huaxia System Announcement: Heroes Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei of Zhuo County, Youzhou, have sworn an oath of loyalty in the Peach Garden of Zhuo County. They are recruiting all the heroes in the world to resist the Yellow Turbans.”
Lu Bu was stunned when he suddenly received such an announcement. His eyes were filled with killing intent!
"My lord!" Xu Ning had just finished a day of training and was leading his soldiers back to camp when he suddenly noticed Lu Bu standing on the road, emitting a strong killing intent. He couldn't help but be slightly startled and hurriedly came up to greet him.
"Oh ~" Lu Bu came back to his senses. Seeing that it was Xu Ning who nodded, he casually asked,""How's the training of the Nanpi County Army going?”
"Reporting to my lord, the initial training of the 3,000 hook and sickle spearmen has been completed. In addition to the recruits in the barracks, Nanpi City has a total of 1800 elite troops, 30,000 ordinary troops, and 13 third-rate generals who have come to seek refuge.”Xu Ning bowed.
Lu Bu nodded his head, letting Xu Ning return to the camp while he headed towards the prefect's residence. With 30,000 men, plus the three towns of Flying Bear, Three Yin, and Gushing Spring, he now had about 40,000 men under his command. It was time to send out troops!
Originally, Lu Bu had planned to wait for Nanpi County to be filled up before sending troops. However, the appearance of Liu Bei and the other two changed his mind. The appearance of the three of them was not far from the destruction of the Yellow Turban. Now, the Yellow Turban's power was gone. If he could not seize the entire Bohai Sea in the last period of time, it was likely that the Bohai Sea would still fall into Yuan Shao's hands in the future. Now that he had 40,000 troops, he would leave 20,000 to defend the city. The rest would be sent out to take over all the towns in Nanpi County first!
Lu Bu had already made up his mind. The Yellow Turban uprising was a disaster for many people, but it was also an opportunity. If it weren't for the Yellow Turban rebellion, Cao Cao would probably still be a lieutenant in Luoyang, and Liu Bei would still be selling shoes in some corner!
