Seeing Dou Cheng De's actions, everyone was shocked!
"General Ling Ce! This subordinate is guilty!" Dou Chengde cupped his fists and raised them high above his head." This subordinate has impure motives and has joined your army! General, please punish me!"
Upon hearing this, Dan Jing and Xiahou Yuan drew their swords from their waists and placed them on Dou Cheng De's shoulder.
As long as he made the slightest move, the two sharp swords would be able to cut off his head in an instant!
Seeing this, Dou Chengde looked up at Li Ce and begged,""General, I have no choice! As a Chinese, I couldn't sit by and watch you grow stronger and threaten the stability of the Great Tang, so I had the intention of assassinating you from the start. Fortunately, General Yuchi stopped me, preventing a disaster!”
"Just this? I don't care about your motive!" Li Ce laughed heartily." What I care about is the reason for you to reveal your heart!”
"It's still because of you!" Dou Chengde took a deep breath." Because everything you've done has touched me! You're like a benevolent lord. You're magnanimous to the people and soldiers! In Youzhou, you gave up your food to the people. Today, you are fearless!”
Upon hearing this, Xiahou Yuan and Shan Jing sheathed their swords, but their eyes were still fixed on him.
"General, please give me a chance to redeem myself!”Dou Chengde kowtowed three times on the ground." I promise that I will be loyal to you from now on and follow your lead!”
"Oh?" Li Ce smiled." What about General Yuchi?"”
"General, I dare not say how General Yuchi will deal with me, but I sincerely want to join your army! Please accept me!"
"No rush!" Li Ce saw that everyone was looking at him and smiled." But I have a mission here. You should be the most suitable person to complete it!”
"What mission? General, please instruct me! I'll die for you!"
"Yes!" Li Ce walked up to him and held his arm." I hope that all the people of Huaxia who have suffered from the war can eat and wear warm clothes. Are you willing to gather those who are wandering outside to Xian Prefecture?"”
Hearing Li Ce's words, everyone looked at him with admiration. Under the lead of a few elders, everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Ce!
"General, you are righteous! You are still worried about the refugees! Your benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled in the world!”
"We can't even look up to a person like General! General, it's our fortune to be able to live in your city!”
"After a great disaster, there will be great fortune, and you have created the greatest fortune for all of us!”
"Thank you, we are willing to live and die with your city! Regardless of whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, the city had to be there even if the people were not!”
"General, you're a living Bodhisattva! It's our honor to meet you!”
"That's right. In this world now, there's no longer a good ruler who cares about the people and soldiers like you!”
"General, you will definitely be able to achieve something in the future!”
……
Everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed!
When Dou Cheng De heard about the mission, he was overjoyed and said,""Please rest assured, General. I promise to complete the mission!”
When the commoners knelt on the ground, Li Ce heard a system notification in his mind.
"Ding! Obtained 10000 reputation points. Current reputation points: 1910000!”
Li Ce's lips curled up slightly when he saw that his reputation had increased.
Although there were only 10,000 of them, it was only for a short while. Moreover, there were not many people present!
The reason why Li Ce had Dou Chengde search for the homeless people was because he didn't want to see the Chinese people suffer from hunger and cold, and also because he wanted to complete the mission provided by the system!
If he increased the population of Xian Prefecture to 200,000, he would be able to obtain 20000 sets of chainmail!
The chainmail was described in the Book of Jin: The armor was like a ring lock, and arrows could not penetrate it.
As long as one wore chainmail, their defense would be extremely strong. Even arrows would not be able to penetrate it!
And there were 20,000 of them!
If he distributed the chainmail armor to the soldiers who had just joined the army and asked them to defend the city!
Moreover, Li Ce had gotten the blueprint for the Giant Arrow Crossbow from the system, and Xiahou Yuan had given it to the carpenter to complete!
The earliest would be tonight, and the first Giant Arrow Repeating Crossbow would be produced!
At that time, whether it was the current Xian Prefecture or Li Ce's other cities.
As long as the enemy dared to come and attack the city, they would not be able to return. They would die under the huge crossbow bolts.
Furthermore, when Li Ce led his troops to war in the future, the city would receive a certain degree of protection!
He wouldn't have to worry about one thing and lose the other.
But it wasn't that wonderful!
This was because the chainmail itself had a certain flaw, and it was not the best among armors!
Although it was paired with a giant arrow repeating crossbow and had the greatest attack power, it was still insufficient in terms of defense!
Even if the enemy paid a hundred times the price to exchange for a guard, it would still be a huge loss!
How could the enemy's life be considered life? How could the enemy's 'person' be human?
However, if Li Ce had a certain amount of smelting technology and mineral resources, he would be able to build better defensive equipment with the System!
However, Li Ce did not have any mines, so he could not mass produce weapons, armor, farming tools, and other tools!
However, as long as Li Ce conquered more land, he would have mines, fertile farmland, houses, population…Everything would be there!
Moreover, if Li Er was the wise ruler, then there were still many countries in the world waiting to be saved by Li Ce!
For example, their main enemy, the Eastern Turks!
The leader of the Eastern Turks, Jie Li Khan, had killed many Chinese citizens in this battle. It was time for him to pay the price in blood!
The reason why Li Ce didn't chase after him was because he hoped that Jie Li Khan could rest in Tanzhou tonight!
As long as he dared to rest and recuperate in Tanzhou, this day next year would be his death anniversary!
Li Ce collected his thoughts and looked at everyone.""Villagers, return to the city!"
"Yes, sir!" Everyone replied in unison.
Everyone's enthusiasm was high, and their voices were as loud as thunder.
……
Yuchi Gong, who was galloping toward Chang 'an, met an acquaintance on the official road!
