When Meng Lin brought his men back to Xu Prefecture, they met Zang Ba and the others who were cleaning up the battlefield. Not only did they gain a lot, but they also took in tens of thousands of prisoners and rushed back to Xu Prefecture.
These captives could not be killed. They were all the best young men. After killing the leaders, the small soldiers would be reorganized and trained to become qualified Xu Prefecture soldiers. In this day and age, it was already good enough to have food to eat. They would definitely be happy to be able to serve as soldiers.
After the victory, the entire Xu Prefecture became busy. Zang Ba was busy counting the casualties and dealing with the prisoners of war. He did not sleep or rest for several days. Tao Qian didn't say anything. He just gave Lin Meng a verbal commendation and nothing else.
On the other hand, Cai Wenji looked for Meng Lin every few days. On the surface, she said that she wanted to pester him to ask for the prescription of the ancestral healing medicine. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this little girl was in love with him. She looked at Meng Lin with a strange gaze.
After resting for three days, Meng Lin began to plan for the next step.
First, he found Zang Ba and obtained a warrant to replenish his troops. Then, he led his men to the camp where the Yellow Turban thieves were imprisoned. In this battle, he did not lose many horses, but more than a hundred cavalrymen had died. Now, his men were not enough, so he had to replenish them.
And these Yellow Turban prisoners were the best soldiers.
They were imprisoned in the camp in the northern city of Xu Prefecture, guarded by 3,000 elite soldiers. There was no need to worry about them rebelling. Furthermore, they were unarmed and were just lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Rumble!
The sound of hooves shook the sky as hundreds of horses whizzed over, scaring the elite soldiers guarding the camp. When they saw that the leader was Meng Lin, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Meng Lin threw out a warrant and said loudly,"I'm here on General Zang Ba's orders to select prisoners of war.”
The guards quickly opened the door, and Meng Lin led his men into the captive area. The captives were either sitting or lying on the ground. There were tens of thousands of them. When everyone saw Meng Lin and the others arrive, they immediately became restless in fear. The scene of Meng Lin leading his men to kill in all directions was still vivid in their minds.
Meng Lin rode his horse out and looked around expressionlessly. His eyes swept over everyone, and everyone he saw felt their hair stand on end, as if he was selecting goods. In fact, no one knew that Meng Lin was identifying everyone's data with the help of the Unparalleled System.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. As expected of a Yellow Turban thief. Although there's a lot of trash, there's also a lot of talent hidden inside.”Meng Lin was ecstatic.
This was like a huge treasure trove, and now he could choose freely. Meng Lin wanted to choose 500 people to form a cavalry unit, but he could only choose 100.
" You, you, you, and you…" Meng Lin pointed at each of them.
The people he picked were all experts, and the weakest was a warrior of level 10 or above. They could be very powerful people outside. But now, he could only serve as a soldier for him, and even more powerful, as an officer for Lin Meng. Lin Meng seemed to see him having a powerful army.
"The chosen one, follow me." Meng Lin said coldly," I'm Lin Meng, the tooth guard under the command of Lord Zang Ba of the Xuzhou Army. I'm sure many of you know me. If you want to live, eat, or get promoted, follow me. If you don't want to, you can leave. I can choose someone else. I won't force you."”
More than a hundred people who were selected widened their eyes in surprise. They simply could not believe their ears.
They were the captives of the rebels. It was already good enough that they were not beheaded. They did not expect to have the opportunity to become government soldiers and even have a good meal, promotion, and wealth? Who would be a traitor if they could eat their fill? This happiness came too suddenly.
"Milord, don't misunderstand. If we follow Milord, our lives will belong to Milord in the future.”These hundreds of people cheered excitedly, causing the others to be envious and jealous.
"Milord, we also want to join the government army.”
"Yeah, we want to join too." The others hurriedly jeered.
Meng Lin smiled and waved his hand."I'll recruit these people today. Someone will deal with them later.”
It was a young man who was sitting alone in a corner. He was looking at Meng Lin's horse with envy. This young man was handsome and did not seem to be an ordinary farmer's son. Moreover, his eyes were clear and intelligent, making people have a good impression of him.
Meng Lin subconsciously looked at his data and was shocked.
[Full Pet: Level 56 Cavalry, Stamina: Attack: 1568 Defense: 1568. Commander: 1680. Speed: 840, Weapon: Thousand Refined Silver Spear, Secret Skill: Absolute Defense, Captive Combat Technique, Large Cover Shot, Potential: 91。
This Man Chong was not simple. In history, he was Cao Cao's subordinate. He was brave, resourceful, and meticulous. He was called the second Zhao Zilong. This fellow was later made a marquis and general, and he even defeated Sun Quan's army and killed Sun Qin.
Even in the game, a full pet was a rare expert. Just by looking at his potential, one could tell that he had the potential to become a first-class battle general. However, it seemed that he was still young, at most fifteen or sixteen years old. This was the time when his strength increased the fastest.
"Come here." Meng Lin smiled and waved.
Full Pet was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed. He ran excitedly to Meng Lin and shouted,"Sir, are you calling me? I'm willing to join you, as long as you give me a horse. I've always dreamed of becoming a cavalry.”
"This brat." Meng Lin couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder he was called the second Zhao Zilong. The real Zhao Zilong could not be tamed for the time being. This full pet was not bad either. After nurturing him for a period of time, he would become a famous expert.
"Brat, you will be my deputy general in the future. I will give you this horse.”Meng Lin laughed out loud, while Man Chong was scared silly. This happiness came too suddenly.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082420183:16PM
