Liu Yue sighed deeply. It seemed that the more capable a person was, the harder it was to gain their loyalty. He still needed to learn more about how to win people's hearts and how to control his subordinates.
Liu Yue brought Xu Cheng back to the convoy. As they walked, he pretended to sigh."Although I am now the Governor of Yingchuan, it is a pity that this position is empty. I have no soldiers under me. I have only recently recruited more than a few new soldiers, so I really can't be put in an important position.”
" My lord…" Guan Yu and the others came up to him, their faces full of questions. "Aren't you going to relieve yourself? Why is there someone following us?"
"I met Xu Zhuang in the forest who joined the army. Xu Zhuang's martial strength is admirable. I'll temporarily confer him as a school guard.”Liu Yue said to everyone.
It was not bad for a commoner to get the position of a school guard. Although he had special skills, if he did not meet a wise ruler, he would only be a small soldier. It was unknown whether he would be put in an important position in the future. After all, in the officialdom, it was not enough to have the ability. No matter how capable you were, if the officials did not use you, you would not have any use.
"Ding! Congratulations, host. Xu Chengzhong's success has increased to 85 points.”The system's pleasant voice sounded.
"Not bad, he gained 3 loyalty points all of a sudden. It seems that no matter who it is, they have to give him enough benefits before he will work for me!”Liu Yue thought to himself.
Xu Cheng was skilled in martial arts, so he could naturally tell that Guan Yu, Zhang Ren, and Dian Wei were all top experts.
"Thank you for the reward, Lord. Xu Chengyuan is willing to charge the front lines for you. You have so many Great Generals, it's enough to wipe out the bandits in Yingchuan.”Xu Cheng cupped his fists and bowed.
Rustle rustle! Rustle rustle!
Suddenly, the sound of grass and trees rang in everyone's ears, and everyone instantly became alert.
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly as he held the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand, fully alert.
Zhang Ren poured his internal strength into his palms, ready to strike at any moment.
Xu Cheng held his silver spear and was ready to start a massacre.
Lei Cheng held his spear and got into a stance.
This was the border of Yuzhou. It was a place that no one cared about. There were many bandits.
"My lord, did you offend someone recently?" Lu Qiang asked.”
Lu Qiang's question reminded Liu Yue,""That's right. I was ambushed by bandits from Luoyang to Hongnong, and now I'm ambushed again from Hongnong to Yingchuan.”
After Lu Qiang used his lightness skill to check in the direction of the thieves, he returned and reported,"My lord, there are about a thousand of these mountain bandits, but most of them don't look like mountain bandits. They look more like the family soldiers of the noble families.”
"Yes, the family soldiers of the valve clan. I beat up Ma Tie in Luoyang. These two ambushes should be the work of the Ma clan.”Liu Yue frowned and thought.
"This Ma Tie is really courting death.”
Liu Yue suddenly smiled, making the tense atmosphere much easier.
"Why is my lord laughing?" Guan Yu asked curiously. Could it be that this group of bandits can bring us any benefits?”
"These thieves are really hateful. Wait for me to kill them all." Zhang Ren snorted.”
The setting sun on the barren mountain sprinkled a layer of red on the ground.
The eyes of these thousand bandits were filled with a ferocious light as they surrounded Liu Yue and his group.
Although their discipline was much better than that of ordinary bandits, they were actually much worse than a real army.
Some of them did not even have a decent weapon in their hands. They only had a wooden stick in their hands.
At the foot of the mountain.
"Your Ma tribe is a big family, one thousand gold and five thousand dans of grain cannot be less.”a bandit leader said.
"Humph! This general will not forget your benefits, so you can rest assured. As long as you kill him, all my promises will be fulfilled.”The person who spoke was Ma Tie. At this moment, he seemed a little impatient.
Before the two of them could finish their words, the thieves at the foot of the mountain started a commotion.
The sounds of killing shook the sky in the forest!
"What happened?" The Thief Crown Great Leader said in shock.
It turned out that Liu Yue had sent people to break out of the encirclement and directly kill the thieves at the foot of the mountain.
The first to rush out were three burly men.
One of them had a red face, red phoenix eyes, and silkworm-like eyebrows. He held the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand. It was Guan Yu.
One of them was a muscular man from the Three Kingdoms. He held a pair of iron halberds in his hands.
One of them was bare-handed, his palms as big as cattail leaf fans, and his killing intent was monstrous. It was Zhang Ren.
"How dare these three people charge into a formation of a thousand?”Ma Tie sat on his horse and looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
"All of you, kill that Liu Yue kid.”Ma Tie ordered.
"Yes!" Dozens of Ma tribe soldiers accepted the order and joined the battle.
However, things did not go according to their wishes. Guan Yu, Dian Wei, and Zhang Ren were too strong. The power of their charge was immense. Wherever they went, ghosts wailed and wolves howled. No one could block a single round and either died or was injured.
These thieves were like rice being harvested by a harvester, falling down in rows.
In the last battle, Liu Yue had a clear understanding of the combat strength of his subordinates.
Letting the two of them charge into the formation could be said to be like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. No matter how many sheep there were, they would only be eaten by the tiger in the end.
