With just a few thousand men, he had defeated Guan Hai's army of 100,000. Meng Lin's fame shook the world. Not only Dongling County, but even the entire Pengcheng Prefecture and even the entire Xu Prefecture soon knew of him. There was also a faint trend of spreading to other states. Unknowingly, Lin Meng had already become famous. Who didn't know that the small Xu Prefecture had a general named Lin Meng, who had a unique strategy of attacking the masses with fewer people?
After the battle, Meng Lin was shocked to find that he had killed more than 50,000 enemies. Not only did this bring him more than 200,000 experience points, but it also brought him a group of elite soldiers.
Meng Lin thought hard for two days and finally began to adjust the military structure.
First, he spent 100,000 experience points to exchange for 1,000 of the most trashy short-legged horses. These short-legged horses weren't worth much. They only cost 100 experience points each, but they were still horses. Hence, a cavalry unit of 1500 people was formed.
Man Chong would be the commander, and he would choose the soldiers who were good at riding to form a new cavalry legion. Meng Lin equipped them with the best swords, bows, and arrows, and let them strengthen their training.
Secondly, he asked Dian Wei to select the strongest soldiers to form a 3,000-man Long Halberd Army. Dian Wei used a long weapon like the double halberds, which was most suitable for training the Long Halberd Army. Moreover, this kind of Long Halberd Army was good at fighting on the plains and restraining cavalry. It could be considered a special type of army.
Meng Lin's dream was to turn the Long Halberd Army into a super strong army, just like Cao Cao's Tiger Leopard Cavalry. Of course, this was only a prototype, and Dian Wei still needed to work hard.
As for the remaining 1,500 soldiers, Lin Meng let Du He lead them. Although this army was not outstanding, they were still considered regular infantry.
Six thousand soldiers, three hundred Dian Man's personal guards, and a terrifying treasure like the ballistae. Meng Lin's strength was growing stronger and stronger.
Meng Lin used the remaining 100,000 experience points to level up. In the end, he directly leveled up to level 75. Now, even Dian Man and Man Chong were no longer his match. In order to increase his strength, Lin Meng even learned the halberd from Dian Wei.
The long halberd was harder to use than the iron spear, but its lethality was more terrifying. Meng Lin could use it with ease. In the end, he exchanged for a 60-pound halberd from the Unparalleled System and swung it vigorously.
Half a month after the battle, Meng Lin was practicing martial arts with Cai Wenji on the drill ground. The two of them were locked in a fight. However, a messenger rushed over and said loudly,"Reporting to General, the envoy from Xu Prefecture has arrived and is currently outside Dongling City. He said that he has come under Lord Tao Qian's orders to send a message for Lord Tao Qian to go out and welcome him.”
"Tao Qian? Welcome?" Everyone was stunned.
Dian Man was furious. Who does Tao Qian think he is? He actually dares to let our lord go out to welcome him? As long as the lord gives the order, I, Dian Man, promise to bring my men to destroy him.”
Meng Lin took the towel from his bodyguard and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He sneered and said,"Dian Man, pass down the order. The three armies will be lined up outside the city to welcome the envoy of Xu Prefecture.”
"Yes, sir!" Dian Man grinned in excitement.
"Let's go and meet this Great Messenger.”Meng Lin laughed loudly, got on his horse, and sprinted out of the city.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The war drums in Dongling County began to sound as the three armies moved out and lined up outside the city. These elite soldiers were all filled with killing intent, causing the expressions of the messengers to change drastically.
There were about a hundred people in this group of envoys from Xu Prefecture. A hundred powerful warriors surrounded a middle-aged man. This man was dressed in luxurious clothes. He had a small nose and small eyes. His attitude was extremely arrogant. His eyes were looking up at the sky. He didn't even look at Dian Wei and the others, which made them quite unhappy.
Meng appeared outside the city with his men. He stared down at the middle-aged man and said coldly,"Who are you?"
"How dare you!" The middle-aged man shouted," I'm Lord Tao Qian's Lord of Duty, Xu Long. I'm here on Lord Tao Qian's orders. Lin Meng, how dare you not greet me?"”
Meng Lin narrowed his eyes. This person had angered him. A Gong Cao was the lowest level official, not even an official. However, he dared to be so arrogant in front of Meng Lin. It was really disgusting.
"Lord Xu Long?" Meng Lin sneered. May I know what orders Lord Tao Qian has?”
Xu Long was frightened by Meng Lin's eyes and did not dare to make him bow again. He could only say coldly,"Bastard, Lord Tao Qian is fighting hard with the Yellow Turban bandits in Xiapi, Kaiyang, and other places, but you are actually living in peace and not thinking of making progress. Now, Lord Tao Qian has ordered you to lead your troops to rescue Peng City and cooperate with the army. Those who disobey will be beheaded!”
"Arrogant!" Dian Wei and the others gritted their teeth and growled.
As the saying goes, if a ruler insults his subjects, they will die. How could Dian Wei and the others not be angry when Lin Meng was insulted? Now, they wished they could go up and tear Xu Long apart.
"Lin Meng!" "Why aren't you kneeling down to receive the order?" Xu Long shouted angrily. Do you want me to invite you?"
"Accept the order?" Meng Lin couldn't help but laugh."Brothers, do you guys want to take it or not?”
"No!" Dian Wei roared with everyone.
The 6,000-strong army roared hysterically. Their voices were like thunder, scaring Xu Long so much that his expression changed drastically. He almost could not even stand steadily. The hundred guards behind him were so scared that they wet their pants.
"Rebellion?" Meng Lin laughed in disdain." We worked hard to take down the Eastern Tomb. Tao Qian didn't even contribute and he wants to take advantage of us. Brothers, don't you think it's against us?"”
"Reverse, reverse, reverse!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The earth-shattering roar directly scared Xu Long to the ground.
Meng Lin snorted coldly and smashed the long halberd in his hand down. Xu Long cried out in surprise and was directly smashed into a meat pie. "Kill them all!" Meng Lin waved his halberd.”
" No, Lin Meng, you dare?..." The hundred people were so frightened that they cursed furiously.
However, it was too late. Dian Wei excitedly led his men and charged over, instantly drowning them in the sea of people.
