Liu Bei and his brothers fled back to Xu Prefecture in a sorry state. When Zhang Fei and Guan Yu heard that Tao Qian had plotted against them, they flew into a rage and prepared to settle the score with Tao Qian. However, Liu Bei, this cunning and cunning fellow, had stopped them and even went to the City Lord's Mansion alone to beg for forgiveness.
"Lord Tao, I, Liu Bei, have let down your cultivation. That Lin Meng was too cunning. In the end, my soldiers were all killed and injured, and I only brought back a few dozen remnants.”Liu Bei cried out tearfully.
Tao Qian was originally furious when he saw Liu Bei return in defeat and wanted to kill him, but now that he saw Liu Bei's state, his heart softened and he did not do anything.
He sighed and forced a smile." Well, victory and defeat are common in military affairs. It's not surprising that my nephew lost to that despicable Lin Meng. You three brothers should rest in the city. I'll arrange things for you when the time is right."”
"Thank you, Sir." Liu Bei bowed with gratitude.
But as soon as he turned around, Liu Bei's face turned extremely ferocious. His eyes were filled with hatred as he muttered,"Old Tao Qian, just you wait. Don't let me seize the opportunity to turn things around. Otherwise, I won't forget your kindness today.”
……
Just as Liu Bei was feeling depressed, Lin Meng was full of himself. He held the first general meeting in the county government to decide on the next attack plan.
"Everyone, we've been hiding in Dongling County for too long. It's about time we reached out to other places.”Meng Lin said seriously," Recently, there are too many refugees. Our rations can't last long. So, we have to expand our territory within a month. Do you have confidence?"”
"Yes!" Everyone roared.
Dian Wei laughed excitedly." My lord, just give the order. Our brothers are all suffocating. We urgently need a big battle to test our army, so we are not afraid of fighting anyone."”
Meng Lin nodded in satisfaction. Now, the first step of conquering the world was about to begin.
"I've discussed this with Mister Cheng Yu. Right now, most of the Xuzhou army is fighting in the Guangling and Kaiyang regions, so they have no time to take care of the north.”Meng Lin said loudly.
"Xiapi?" Cai Wenji exclaimed.
"Yes!" " Xiapi is located along the coast," Meng Lin said seriously." It's backed by Beihai, Qingzhou, and other places. It's a very important location. Once we get Xiapi, we can sit back and watch Xu Zhou fall into chaos. We can seize the entire Xu Zhou at any time. Once Xu Prefecture is in my hands, I will charge into Qing Prefecture and take over two prefectures.”
Everyone's eyes lit up. Although they didn't think that far ahead, Meng Lin's words still made everyone excited. Conquering the world, this kind of exciting thing, just thinking about it made him excited.
Cheng Yu stroked his beard and smiled." Xiapi is not far from Xu Prefecture. It's a county city with eighteen counties under it. If we want to enter Xiapi, we must seize the two nearby counties, Dongcheng and Zhenhai. In other words, if we get Xiapi, we will have one prefecture and twenty-one counties. When the time comes, we will have millions of people under us, and the endless tax revenue will allow us to take root. Therefore, we can only win this battle.”
"I'll announce it now." "Du He is leading his troops to guard the Eastern Tomb. This is our headquarters and we cannot afford to lose it." Meng Lin said seriously. Dian Wei will lead three thousand halberd soldiers, Dian Man will lead three hundred personal guards, and Man Chong will lead one thousand and five hundred cavalrymen.”
"Speed is the most important thing in war. We will leave the city tomorrow morning. Dian Wei will launch a surprise attack on Cheng County, and Man Chong will follow me to launch a surprise attack on Zhenhai County. We must take down these two counties within three days, understand?”
"I understand!" Everyone shouted excitedly.
"In addition, I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. Dian Wei attacked Liu Bei this time, what reward do you want?”Meng Lin asked with a smile.
Dian Wei smiled foolishly." My lord must be joking. This small matter isn't worth mentioning. How can I ask for any reward?"”
"No, this is definitely a reward. Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are not easy to deal with.”Meng Lin laughed.
Dian Wei stood up and said," If that's the case, then you can reward me as you please. I like everything."”
"How about a BMW?" Meng Lin asked with a smile.
Dian Wei Man Chong and even Dian Man's eyes lit up. As a general, what he wanted the most was a fine horse. Riding a fine horse to conquer the world was the dream of every general. Moreover, having a good horse would greatly increase the strength of a general.
"Alright, since you don't object, then I'll take the BMW.”Meng Lin laughed and said in his heart,""Unparalleled System, what kind of horse can I exchange my experience points for?”
"Host Meng Lin, you have 4210 experience points now. You can exchange for a high-quality Dayuan steed. Do you want to exchange?”
"Exchange." Meng Lin agreed happily.
These few thousand experience points were obviously not enough to exchange for a warhorse of Red Rabbit's level, but the Great Wan Steed was not bad either. This Great Dawan Horse came from the frontier fortress of the Western Regions. It was an outstanding warhorse that could not be found in the inland areas. A substandard Great Dawan Horse could be sold for hundreds of thousands of silver.
If there was a good horse outside, many generals would be willing to use all their wealth to exchange for it, and they would fight for it until their heads bled. When the Wushuang System reminded Meng Lin that the Great Wan Horse was just outside the door, he immediately smiled in satisfaction.
"My lord, what are you laughing at? Where's the BMW you mentioned?”Dian Wei called out anxiously.
"Don't worry, follow me." Meng Lin laughed.
Outside the hall, a tall horse was quietly parked there. It was tall and sturdy, and its muscles were firm and tight. Its hooves were bigger than a big bowl, and its black fur was extremely smooth. Its eyes were bright and bright. One look and one could tell that it was a high-grade horse.
"Great Dawan steed?" Cheng Yu exclaimed.
"Is this the legendary Great Wan Horse?”Dian Wei was shocked.
In the eyes of horse lovers, this warhorse was a treasure that was worth more than the entire Dongling County. And he was even willing to give it to him?
"It's yours." Meng Lin said with a smile.
"Really?" "Thank you, my lord." Dian Wei laughed.
When Dian Wei mounted his horse and galloped away, the Wushuang system notified him that his loyalty had soared again. Only then did Lin Meng smile in satisfaction.
Dian Wei looked even more majestic on his warhorse, even more ferocious than the War God, making Dian Man and Man Chong envious.
"Don't be envious. Kill with all your might in this battle. Sooner or later, you'll have your own exclusive mounts.”Meng Lin laughed.
"Yes, sir!" Dian Man and Man Chong cheered excitedly.
